Garrett was able to trace all but $12,136 of the money, he said It came from many other sources besides the former Teamsters president's salary, and included almost a dozen different union Kinds. He did not have access to Beck's books but had to go to banks and other sources to trace the money, Garrett said. In several cases he found books of several unions had been destroyed. Non-taxable deposits such as loans from banks and other sourc es in the four years came to $1,320,000, the agent testified.

Benson Suggests Program To Aid Migrant Laborers WASHINGTON (UPI) Secre tary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Ben son suggested today that a rural aevelopment program for low-in come migrant larm workers might improve their efficiency and living conditions. Benson raised the possibility in a message to the opening session of a two-day conference sponsored by the National Advisory Com mittee on Farm Labor. "In many cases," Benson said, these people don't have skills and training to secure non-agricultural employment. If agricultural em ployment were not available, some of them might be dependent on various types of welfare pro grams." Along this line. 10 Democratic congressmen urged Congress in a joint statement to do something to raise the wage and living stan dards of two million poor farm workers and their families. The lawmakers were Reps. Frank Thompson Jr. N.J.), Lee Metealf (Mont.), James Roosevelt (Calif.). John Blatnik iMinn.l, Thomas L. Ashley (Ohio), George M. Bailey (W.Va.), and Charles Porter (Ore.). The co-chairman of the farm la bor conference, Frank Graham, former Democratic senator from North Carolina, said the sessions I were designed to focus public at tention on the plight of "forgotten farm hands. Speakers will try to discover why hired farm workers received an average annual wage of $892 in 1957, below the level the Labor Department says is required for subsistence, Graham said. The need for minimum federal standards on wages, hours, bous ing, health and transportation will be explored, he added. Chos. J.

This isn't so. Art appreciation is a feeling." You can t develop the teehng. according to Walker, by sprinting through an art exhibit with the intention of giving each and every work a hasty once-over. You have to pace yourself. spending about 30 minutes at one time touring one or two sections ol an exhibition," he said. "Mull over the work that appeals to you ai nrst glance. the longer you stand in front of an appealing painting, the sooner you will get the artist's message, the picture has mean ing (or you if it fills your mind full of images. That is apprecia tion." Walker suggests shopping around until you locale a paint ing that moves you before buying. Kemember that you are buy ing to suit your tastes, so don't worry about defending the paint ing in front of your friends," he said. 'I don't understand why, but art in the homo seems to be fair game when visitors call. The very people who wouldn't dare take issue with your furniture, clothes or drapes don't hesitate to tear apart the art on your walls. You can nut the critic in his place by telling him that it's your selection and that it wasn't meant to please every Tom, Dick and Harry.

Faith In Jets Unshaken WASHINGTON (UPI)-A fatal crash and a "near emergency" involving America's latest jet powered airliners left the aviation industry's faith in its new planes unshaken today. In one accident, a turbo - prop (jet engines hitched to conven tional propellers) Lockheed Elec tra crashed in the water short of a LaGuardia Field runway in New York Tuesday night. Sixty five died in the American Air lines plane. In the second incident, a Pan American World Airways jetliner suddenly dropped 24.000 feet to 6,000 feet altitude over the North Atlantic when its autopilot went haywire.

Quesada, head of the new federal aviation agency, was called to testify at a closed-door session.
