Justice Departments investigation
of the building construction in
duStry.
The supplementary agreements,
handled separately with the truck
operating companies, were signed
by ar employer representative and
Thomas P. O'Brien, general or
ganizer of the teamsters' interna-
tional organization, and Charles j.
Bell, president of the local.
A clause consenting to the trans
fer was signed on each of the con-
tracts by John P. Shields, business
agent for the engineers local.
Mr.. Keyser, Mr.. O'Brien and Mr..
Bell are among those cited in the
indictment against the teamsters.
Operating companies affected by
the transfer were Super Concrete
Corp, Maloney Concrete Co., Con-
serco, Inc, and Howat Concrete Co.
The agreement with the Howat
concern was to be signed this morn
ing. The others were signed yester-
day.
The agreements went into effect
as of the time of signing.
Officials explained that the local
quarrel had to be ironed out be-
fore full terms of a decision covering
operations of construction machin-
cry throughout the country-much
of which was in dispute between
the two unions-could be put in
effect.
The decision was handed down by
a special A. F. of L. committee last
october and admittedly resulted in
large gains for the operating engi-
neers in various sections of the
United States and Canada.
1t did not, however, affect the
local dispute, as the committee held
that jurisdiction of the mixer trucks
had been awarded the teamsters in
a decision handed down by DR.. John
A. Lapp, national referee of the
A. F. Of LIS Building Trades De-
partment, in January, 1898.

Capone Goes 10 Estate
On Florida Island

BY the Associated Press.
MIAMI BEACH, Fla, March 22.-
Al Capone was secluded today be-
hind the white walls Of the semi
tropical estate he owns on Palm
Island.
His brother, John Capone, ac-
knowledged that the ex-gaugster
had come to Florida from Baltimore,
where he had been under medical
treatment for a brain ailment.
Capone's Baltimore physician, DR.
Joseph E. Moore, said there he is
still i'll and will continue under med
ical care"
The sheriff's office and police were
advised by public attorneys that the
former Chicago gang leader would
not be required to register with
them as convicted felon since laws
requiring such registrations do not
apply to persons imprisoned for tax
violations.
Capone was convicted in 1881 on
income tax evasion charges, entered
prison May 4, 1882, and was released
November 16, 1899, from Federal
prison at Lewisburg, Pa, after serv-
ing part of his sentence at Alcatraz
and Terminal Island Prison.

began shipping water at her dock
early yesterday morning.
With her holds and engine room
flooded, the Panamanian literally

PARIS, March 22.-France's new
push -the-war" premier, Paul Rey-
maud, is the kind of man whose
clear headed mountain thinking"
often has placed him on the unpop-
ular side of political issues, but who
today is on top of the political heap
because the French public came
around to his view.
This 6l-year-old sharp-eyed little
man, whose vigor and alert bearing
give him the appearance of a man
20 years younger, has been through
the mill of French political up
heaval.
He was thrust into unpopular

stuck to his guns on that, and
France finally did it, but not until

But France was not so alarmed at
German expansion then as in 1888
and 1899.
Although member of the Dala-
dier cabinet, he violently disagreed
with the "appease Hitler" tactics
in 1938-the year of Munich-and
his disapproval caused him to re-
sign from one of the Rightist polit-
ical groups.
Before that he was on the un-
popular side when he supported
Edouard Herriot's insistence that
the war debt to the United States
be paid.
Even when he took over the
finance portfolio in the Daladier
cabinet at a time when French
economy was at a low ebb, it ap-
peared as if he were determined to
go into oblivion as quickly as
possible.
To restore battered French
finances he launched at the start OF
1899 a three-year plan so severe it
would have cost the head of an ordi-
nary finance minister. To finance
the war he introduced even stricter
measures.
Showed Results for Taxes.
Surprisingly, the high taxes only
seemed to make him popular. He
showed the public results for their
