"Fake Holdup" llefterlbed In lleddlntf Cane REDDING, Calif., March 20 (At Details of a "fake holdup' In which records of the Construc tion and General Laborers union (AFL) were stolen in an alleged attempt to cover up a shortage of funds, were made known here at the trial of two union men charged with conspiracy to com mit grand theft of union funds. Defendants were E. H. Mc Afee, business agent of the un ion, and his brother, Willis Mc Afee, former business agent Richard Brennan, president of the union and "victim of the holdup, testified that he had left union hall here last Oct. 23 with brief case containing money, checks and union record books He said a nun with a gun got in his car, forced him to drive out of town and took the brief case and car. The union official said he la ter recognized the voice of Lyle Ross, a laborer who had come to union hall, as that of the man who robbed him. He said he had Ross arrested. The next witness was Ross, who told of going to the hall last July seeking employment and getting acquainted with Willis McAfee, who "suggested the framed robbery of Brennan." Ross quoted Willis McAfee as saying union -officials in San Francisco wanted to examine the record books because all expen ditures could not be accounted for. There was a reported short age of $:1000 in picketing funds In agreeing to rob Brennan, Ross aaid Willis McAfee prom ised to "arrange It" and see that he got $200 for the holdup. Ross then related how he climbed In Brennan's car in front of union hall on Oct. 23 and drove out of town with him. He said he left Brennan afoot and drove back with the brief case, which contained some cash, checks and record books. Ross said he kept the cash and turned the - checks and record books over to Willis McAfee. He said E. H. McAfee later made him a shop steward. " In a previous confession, Ross said E. H. McAfee tried to induce him to commit another holdup later. LOS ANGELES, m Strong ! Man Lou Novikoff still Is the1 weak sister of the Chicago Cubs batting order.
