with two padlocks. These were un

Accordine to the report, the
man opened a showcase and took
nine men's watches, two of which
were second hand, and six ladies'
watches. He also opened a drawer
below the cash register by break
ing the lock. This netted him five
watches and two rings, one a
diamond, which were being held
as secvity on personal loans: one
.380 caliber French automatic pis
tol and possibly a .25 automatic
pistol.

"It's the climax of something '
that's been going on- tor- a long

Hutcheson wrote in a letter to
AFL President George Meany re

he objected to the AFL agreeing
to ban fights between AFL - and
CIO unions when, he said the AFL
hadn't taken steps to stop scraps
