eral investigation of alleged viola
tions of the Federal Anti-Racketeer-
ing Act by persons in the motion

dent of the A. F. L. International

ployes. produce the unions books
and records dealing with the col
lection and disbursement of mem

sentative, William Bioff, West Coast

trial October on charges of extort-
ing $3.50 900 from four major motion
picture producers under threats to
call strike of key technical workers
in the industry.
Assistant United States Attorney
John Burling said the investigation
Of the unions financial affairs was
not related to the case pending
against Browne and Bioff. although
they were indicted under the anti
racketeering act, but that it was
part of a general investigation OF al
legged violations of the act by numer-
Gus persons in the motion picture
industry.
Mr.. Burling said the books and
records demanded by the grand
jury cover the collection and dis
bursement of a special per cent
assessment against weekly salaries
of approximately 125 900 union men,
bers.
The alliance is one of the most
powerful unions in the amusement
world
Mr. Burling declined TO make an
estimate of the collection.
Judge Holland adjourned until

Brownies counsel to qlash the sub
poenas served on Browne Tuesday
