JULIUS was heard to’ remark, "560 drivers - TONY PRO" and a JULIUS apparently is referring to the fact that some of the barns or companies have employees who are members of ‘Local 560 of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, It is noted-that TONY PRO, true name TONY PROVENZANO, is . an official in Local 560, IBT. JULIUS stated, "RED MIKE gave you Local 641 men," and CONNIE agreed, making an inaudible remark, and then stated, "JIMMY wants (inaudible) ." An unknown number of individuals joined the conversa-_ tion, and all went into the outer office. NOONAN and FUREY - returned to NOONAN's office, and spoke in low tones. NOONAN © remarked, "I'm in trouble now. Bad trouble (inaudible). yeah, but he's different." The remainder of the conversa- tion is inaudible; however, mention is made of two shop stewards, and, later on in the conversation, NOONAN quoted an unknown individual, "I can't afford a strike, I'll sign anything." The informant was of the. opinion that this conversation was a continuation of the previous. conversation concerning the present negotiations, | ; With respect to the question of "utility", it is noted ' that this question has been a major point with Local 1730 of the ILA. NY 1716-c has previously explained that the members of Local 1730 generally work under the so-called checker system, where certain individuals are authorized to work the Hi-Lo Machines, and other individuals are authorized to work as checkers. Under the "utility" system, all individuals could be utilized as the situation warranted, either as Hi-Izo operators, or as checkers, -6- \ \ \ Docld: 32297181 Page 3 a

Informant advised GLEASON apparently was referring to the fact that JIMMY "BLUE EYES" (VINCENT ALO) had been helpful in placing both of these shop stewards in their union positions. : Informant also stated that CONNIE NOONAN told one of the shop stewards that he was getting out of line, and that even though he, NOONAN, was 2 "general" in the organization, he had to take orders jtoo, and that the orders were "to get utilhity".
