If there is a large blank vote,
Latin America experts here are
inclined to credit Peron's popu-
larity rather than strength of
the Catholic Nationalist.
If the Frondizi forces do gain
a position of power in the con-

amburu government would have
two alternatives: Either accept
the result and go through with
the general elections without
revising the constitution or take
the legal position that the
constitutional convention was
called for the specific purpose
of revising the constitution.

cannot be held until revisionS

The select committee took
over an investigation of labor
racketeering in the New York
area that was started in March
1856. by the Senate Permanent
Investigations Subcommittee.
The subcommittee became
interested in the problem
through it's investigation of
Army clothing contracts which
turned up evidence of infiltra-
ton of unions by racketeers
and collision between the
dominated unions and
management.
Ia Investigators Working
According to Committee
Counsel Robert F. Kennedy,
who is now counsel of the Sc
lect committee, the inquiry i'm
mediately involved Dio and his
followers. The investigation
was dropped in May at the re-
quest of New York officials
pending the search for those
involved in the acid-blinding
of Victor Riesel. New York
labor columnist.
Dio was charged with COM
plicity in the Riesel case but
his trial was suspended when
two key Government witnesses
refused to testify.
The subcommittee investi-'
CATION was resumed last Au-
gust. and some of the racke-
teerS, including Dio, were ques-
toned last fall in closed SEES
Sions in New York.
The select committee took
over the investigation after it
was formed last February
Since then IA investigators
have been working on the mat

Argentine Voting Today
May Fovor Strong Man

Another nationalist strong
man" of the Peron stripe may
emerge from Argentine cleo
tons today.
That is the judgment of State
Department officials who have
been watching the nationwide
campaign to name a ConStitu-
ent Assembly which is to revise
Argentina's constitution, nov
heavily weighted to favor strong
executive power.
No Friend of Peron
Leading figure in the cleo
tons is expected to be Arturo
Frondizi. chief of the Intran-

strong man, Juan Peron, how
ever, and Washington observ-
ers see no danger that Peron
could be brought back into
power if Mr.. Frondizi were to
win.
President Pedro Eugenio
Aramburu, the ex-general who
emerged as the provisional
leader of Argentina after the
custer of Dictator Peron, is not
favorably disposed to Mr.. From
dizi, however. and what would
happen if the Frondizi party
won a plurality of the 205-seat
Constituent Assembly is I'M
practicable.
The Constituent Assembly, is
to sit as a constitutional con-
vention from September / to
November Is. Its job will be
to revise certain provisions of
the Argentine constitution
which concentrate great power
in the hands of the executive.
An attempt will be made to
write in checks and balances
by increasing the powers of the
legislature and the courts.
Elections Watched
The Frondizi followers are op-
posed to revising the constitu-
ton, however, and if they win
control of the. constitutional
convention they have indicated
they will adjourn it without
taking action.
The first regular elections in
Argentina are scheduled for
next February %. Both a pres
ident and legislature are to be.

have used these underworld
forces in grabs for power"
Hearings Start Wednesday
The hearings. starting at 10
am. Wednesday. are expected
to run for two or three weeks.
Senator Mcclellan said part
Of the investigation will explore
whether Hoffa used two noto-
rious New York underworld fig
ures in a successful grab for
power to control all trucking
in that city. He identified the
hoodlums as John Johnny
Dio) Dioguardi, twice convicted
labor racketeer. and Anthony
(Tony Ducks Corallo. who was
described as narcotics rackets
figure.
The investigation will center
on how Hoffa and his support
ers gained control of the New
York Joint Council of Team
sters, the most important rul-
ing group of that union in the
New York area.
100 to Be Called
After his recent acquittal
here on charges of bribing a
committee lawyer to spy for
him, the 42-year-old Hoffa has
emerged as the most powerful
figure in the is million-mem-
Der Transfers Union and the
likely successor to Dave Beck as
president.
More than 100 witnesses will
be called for the investigation,
Senator Mcclellan said.
1t is expected that Hoffa will
be among them for his first
appearance before the special
Senate investigating commit
tee. After the acquittal of the
union leader, Senator McClel-
Ian pointedly said that Hoffa
"just might" be a witness.
The committee also is ex-
pected to call Johnny Dio and
other hoodlums who have been
active in labor unions in the

victed last week in the New
York State courts on an extor-
ton charge.

Banks 10 Face
Profit Squeeze,
ABA Warns

Many commercial banks will
face a new and challenging
earnings situation in. coming
years as the rise in gross rev.
enue slows and operating ex-
penses continue their steady
rise. the American Bankers AS
ISOLATION warned yesterday.
A report from the ABA's Eco
nomic Policy Commission said
postwar expansion Of bank rev.
enues resulted mainly from
shifting to higher-yielding
types of assets and rising inter-
est rates since 1916. These
trends cannot continue indefi-
nitely and sooner or later must
slacken or even be reversed, 1t
said.
Gross earnings per 500 Of
assets rose from $1.88 in 1916
to $3.45 in 1856. an increase Of
81 per cent, 1t added.
Wages. interest payments
and other operating expenses
have risen l56 per cent since
1916. while income tax pay
ments have increased 152 per
cent, the report declared. Bar
ring a depression, banks will be
forced to continue to raise
salary scales to attract and
hold competent personnel and
larger stats will be required to
handle expanded operations, it
predicted.
While the near-term outlook
for bank earnings remains quite
favorable. present tendencies
may exert serious preSsures on
bank positions unless new
sources of earnings and more
economic operating procedures
are developed, it emphasized.
