 BOScO ACCOUNT OF OCT. 30
 MEETING IS GIVEN Union Row Over CIO Presidency Takes New
 Angle

An answer to the caustic criticism heaped on Rev. Joseph Donnelly by officers of the Chase c. I. o. in reply to his alleged attack on union president, Reid Robinson, and union policies, was made this noon by the Driscoll-for- President headquarters, "The statement made by MT. Stan ton and others that they have no knowledge of a 'goon squad at their plant is a lie," said Anthony D, Boseo, campaign man. ager for John DriScoll.
 MT Stanton and MT. Napoll were In my office on Friday night, Co., tober 30, along with 27 other men at a session which began at 7:60 and continued until almost 10 o'clock" continued Bosco. "Included in the gathering were at least three men from the night shift.
 'The group accused me of holding Chase meetings in my campaign of flee, Nick Scacco, their spokesman, asked me where Driscoll was. saying that if I didn't tell him, he would catch up with him anyhow and he and his men would tear the office apart.
 "While I was talking to Scaceo, Lowell Holllnbeck, organizer of the Chase group called me on the phone and Inquired whether there was . Chase meeting going on in my of- flee. I replied that the only ones there were the men whom he had sent. He told me then that that is only Q sample of what we will do, and tho next time we will send 300 men into your office," He also ac- cused Driseoll and myself of trying to break up his union,
 He further stated that there were three men in Chases who were continually trying to disrupt union meetings and who were hold ing up production in the Chase plant. He named McSherry, Ross and McGrath.
 After my telephone conversation with Hollinbeek, Seacco told mo, I am on the Executive Board of 665. and we are going to see that to- morrow Is the last time those three men work
 1T was informed that after the men left my office, some of them were going to the residence of one of the workers for the purpose of intimidating him.
 Among the group who visited my office were stanton, Maxwell and Napoli, and so the assertion that they are completely unaware of any 'goon squad Is utter falsehood."

 The spokesman would not am- plify his reference to his choice of words.
 He said there had been slight Axis air activity over North Africa but added that enemy claims had been grossly exaggerated
 "The claim that four warships and six transports had been dam- aged at Algiers is false" he said.
 He did not confirm q Vichy com munique saying that Gran, the sec- oond important naval base on AL gerias Mediterranean coast, had Secn entered by American tanks.
 "Presumably oran has been en- circled," he said. "The CaSablanca situation is still obscure. There have been landings north and south of there and considerable naval activity. Latest reports do not indicate the situation ashore"
 He was unable to comment on report attributed to . Buenos Aires radio broadcast that American forces already had entered Tunisia (ContlnueG on Page ~
