And Shot 10 Death
In Own Automobile
BY the Assceioted Press

JOLIET, Ill. Nov. f0.-The
business agent Of an independent
teamsters and chauffeurs union
who survived an attempt on his
life year ago was found shot to
death in his automobile 10 miles
north of here yesterday.
State troopers who found the
body Of Anthony Baldino, 46, of
Suburban River Forest. said bruises
indicated his wrists and ankles
had been tied and he had been
beaten with a metal rod before
he was shot twice through the
head.
Wife Tells Of Call.
Mr.. Baldino's wife Mary. 43.
told police her husband left home
Saturday afternoon, and tele-
phoned her about 2 am. yesterday
from Chicago saying he would be
home in an hour.
State police said their records
showed a bomb was placed in Mr..
Baldino's car, parked in front of
"a Chicago hospital. in October,
1851. It exploded when he
stepped on the starter but Mr..
Baldino escaped with minor in
|juries.
Mr.. Baldino's union, Local No.
705, was one of several which
broke away from the AFL Team
sters Union in 1906. All but Lo-
cal 705 ultimately returned to
the AFL. An early leader Of the
independent union, Mike Calvin,
was slain in 1886. Steve Labor
of Chicago, the union president,
was shot at in 1850 but not
wounded.
Two Killed in Accident.
The union is active in Cook
(Chicago) and adjacent Lake
Counties.
State police said they were in
vestigating possible link between
the Baldino Staying and an au-
tomobile accident in which two
members of a rival union were
killed late Saturday night. The
car in which they rode left the
highway and hit a telephone pole
The crash was about 4 miles
from where Mr.. Baldino's car was
left, parked just off the highway,
with lights on and engine run
ming.

Boost in Military Aid
To Mid-East Studied

Some Government officials are
studying proposals to send more
heavy military equipment to the
Middle East and eventually build
American air fields in Pakistan,
authoritative sources said today.
This would be part Of a shift
of emphasis under which Western
Europe has received major Ameri-
can attention.
The Eisenhower administration
would have to work out details
and get general approval from
the new Republican Congress.
But officials now concerned with
overseas aid look toward cutting
economic help to Western Europe
to a minimum. Then more en-
phasis might be put on military
aid and technical assistance to
other areas.
The military's Irritation with
Pakistan is significant. This big
Moslen1 neighbor of India has not
yet joined the West in the Cold
War. But air bases in Pakistan
would be only two hours flying
time from Soviet industrial areas.
More energetic cooperation be-
tween the United States and PAX
istan also would tend to strengthen
American prestige among the
Arab Moslems of the Middle East.
They have been mifed everssinee
the United States decisively sup
ported creation of a Jewish state
in Palestine.
