establishing a rival commission
to clean up the Transfers
Union.
A letter from the board Of
monitors will go to the Team
ster president today. asking for
"full details" on the new panel
Hoffa startled the monitors
Saturday by appointing a

represents dissident Transfers
on the three-man board of
monitors. Since the board was
appointed last February by
Federal District Judge F. Dick
inson Let's, Mr.. Schmidt has
consistently taken the tough
est stand against Hoffa.
Martin F. O'Donoghue, chair
man of the monitors, is out of
town on vacation. He issued a
statement through his office
here that establishment of the
new commission "has seriously
implications and until get all
the facts concerning its powers
and duties. I have no COM
