Opposition to James r. Hof-
fa's bid to become president Of
the giant Transfers Union
yesterday appeared to be stiff
ening.
The 44-year-old Detroit I'M

poets Of more disclosures by
the Senate committee investi-
eating improper labor-manage-

Committee Chairman Nc
Clellan. Democrat of Arkan-

morrow whether the commit
tee will renew hearings on
Hoffa before the Transfers
election in Miami Beach a
little more than two weeks on.
Senator Mcclellan planned
to announce q decision after

who has been directing in De-

monotonous use Of II don't

Additional disclosures could
throw more obstacles in Hoffa's
drive to become president OF
the lis million-member union
in which numerous officials
and rank-and-flle members al
ready are taking q second look
at the Detroit Transfers can
didacy.
The important Chicago Area
Transfers Council will meet
tomorrow night to reconsider

Hoffa and Thomas Haggerty,

I'm going there two years
from now for a six to eight

Little Rock does not represent
the feeling Of the people. It's
just a small minority.
What the Governor has
done is unfortunate. No true
Christian could be engaged IN
violence. It is the duty Of
Christians everywhere to pray
that the Lord win help resolve
this problem"

today to the statements issued
by President Eisenhower ano

r. l.. ranged all the way from
puzzlement. through anger, to
wait and see.
Nobody on either side of the
fierce dispute over indignation
here expressed outright salts
faction.
A source close to Gov. Faubus
told q Little Rock newspaper
the Arkansas Democrat:
II think the Governor is pre-
pared to meet the Federal Gov
eernmnt head-on in litigation,
which, he said. might also re.
solve the differences of powers
of a dual sovereignty system
State and Federal.

ut doesn't sound to me like
he has abdicated any RESPONSE
bilities under the constitution
Of Arkansas and the United

The newspaper said the
source could not be identified.
Mr.. Faubus telephoned the
Democrat before he left New
port today.
What does it all mean?"
he was asked.
Il can't say anything now,
but / hope to see you all when
I get home" Gov. Faubus re-
piled.

Eisenhower statement sounds
hopeful. the real test will be
in what happens"
Senator Bennett, Republican
of Utah. said he assumed that
Mr.. Eisenhower and admins
tration officials would give the
Governor and other Arkansas
officials "a few days to work
out the machinery so he won't
feel he has been brought UP
