the union will make a profit on
a 81 million loan he helped
arrange, but Senator McClel-

The Arkansas Democrat,

estate loan q bad bargain" for

Fitzgerald's handling Of the
transaction.
But Mr.. Fitzgerald told the
committee he had acted to safe
guard the unions interest.
According to testimony. the
Welfare Fund loaned 81 million
to the Winchester Land De-
velopment Co. for development
Of a project, Winchester Village
near Flint. Mich. None Of the
principal has been repaid, and
the borrowers have paid only
about 100000 Of an estimated
$279. 900 in interest.
Foreclosure Started
Mr.. Fitzgerald recently start
ed foreclosure proceedings. Only
about 900 Of the projects 1910
acres remain unsold, and this
tract has been appraised al

Mr.. Fitzgerald testified there
are other aSets to protect the
unions investment, and said
the lands value will increase
with development.
He defended his action In
waving certain safeguards In
the loan agreement. For ex-
ample, the land developers
were supposed to draw money
from the loan only to pay
bills for improvement of a spe-
cific tract. on which the Team
sters held a mortgage.
But Mr.. Fitzgerald authorized

velopment company. He said
the company was supposed to
repay the 100000 to the loan
fund, but failed to d so.
Committee Investigator Wal

the loan was used to buy the
land which was pledged as Sc

$4,000 Fee Involved
Mr.. Fitzgerald denied the
suggestion he was unethical In
