Hoffo' S Push for Power
Faces Some Obstacles

for a uniform national truck
ing contract.
Absolved Mr.. Hoffa and his
lieutenants of corruption
charges.
Only Officials Eligible
Ruled that only union Of
ficials, not rank -and-file mem
bers, will be eligible to run for
national office.
Endorsed plans for stepped
up political and lobbying ac-
tivity.
These actions gave Mr.. Hoffa
legal and financial resources
to push his growth campaign,
and frightened his control over
the union.
Mr.. Hoffa'S minimum goal
is to increase Teamster mem
bership to 2 million during his
five-year term. He now claims
II million members.
Claims of sky rocketing
membership have helped Mr..
Hoffa create and sustain an
image as the labor movements
only dynamic, successful leader
since the AFL-CIO in 1857 ex-
PEELED the TeamSters on cor
ruption charges. He has seized
every opportunity to point out
that the AFL-CIO has been
losing members.
Membership Declines
Only recently, Mr.. Hoffa's
enemies have started pounding
away at the fact that Team
Sters Union membership ac-
tually has declined under his
leadership-although there is
no question that his union
still is the Nations largest.
The II million membership
figure is the total for last
November, and reflects an in
crease of $4,000 from Novem-
ber. 1858. But November is the
seasonal peak for TeamSter
membership. Average annual
figures-a better yardStick-
tell a different story.
Labor Department figures,
based on TeamSter financial
reports, indicate that the un-
ions average membership has
declined from 1,565,071 in 1857,
when Dave Beck was president,
to l 1,48l ,147 in 1860.
Charging the AFL-CIO with
stagnation, Mr.. Hoffa declared
in Miami that he would step
up Teamster organizing of all
unorganized workers - even
those in the traditional juris-
dictions of other unions.
An AFL-CIO official, SCOT
fling at the declaration, COM
mented: tits easy to check up
and show that Hoffas cam
paigns to organize this industry
and that industry have fizzled. |

CIO. The leading candidate is
the Laundry, Cleaning and
Dye House Workers Interna-
tional Union, which has re-
ceived financial aid from the
Teamsters.
Pushes Strength Idea
Ambitious talk by Mr.. Hoffa
is calculated to aid his cam
paign for reaffiliation with the
AFL-CIO. He is promoting the
idea that the Teamsters are
strong and the AFL-CIO is
weak, that the AFL-CIO needs
the TeamsterS.
Furthermore, he warns, "a
divided house of labor is just
what the employers want"
Mr.. Gibbons contends that
the AFL-CIO is ION dead CEN
ter, beset by problems which
George Meany president of
the AFL-CIO) is proceeding to
do nothing about" He main
tains that our support would
help stimulate labor activity"
Reaffiliation with the AFL-
CIO also would help the Team
SterS. Mr.. Gibbons acknowl-
edges, noting that "our return
to our place in the mainstream
of labor would open some doors
for us in the area of politics
and increase our influence in
Congress"
Mr.. Meany has vowed that
the TeamSters never will re-
turn to the AFL-CIO so long
as he is president of the fed
Grafton and Mr.. Hoffa heads
the expelled union.
Has Some Support
Although Mr.. Hoffa's reaf-
filiation drive enjoys some sup
port within the AFL-CIO, his
hackers are not strong enough
to outvote Mr.. Meany-at least
not at next December's AFL-
CIO convention.
In fact, Mr.. Meany feels con-
fident enough to encourage re-
belliOnS within the Transfers
Union. He helped 1000 anti
Hoffa Teamsters in Cincin-
natl stage a revolt last month,
when they voted to withdraw
from the union.
Several other Teamster To-
Gals also are pulling out, and
an aide to Mr.. Meany reports
I'VE have reason to believe" re-
bellion will spread.
Evening star., 1961-09-04

So now he's getting vague and
announcing that he's going to
organize everybody. No, we're
not worried"
Harold j. Gibbons, Mr..
Hoffa's top aide, maintains
that organizing goals are spe-
cific, and insists that the
TeamSterS Union is besieged
by workers in many industries
who want to join.
Among the leading organiz-
ing prospects, Mr.. Gibbons re-
ports, are industrial farms,
food professors, airline freight
handlers and other ground
service workers, auto repair
shops, grocery warehouses and
professional sports-expecially
auto racing, basketball and
boxing.
TeamSters Union organizing
plans, according to Mr.. Glib
bons, are not likely to result
in much direct conflict with
AFL-CIO unions. He explains
that his union does not intend
to lure members away from
other . unions, but merely to
sign up unorganized workers.
The more members Mr.. Hoffa
can sign up, of course, the
stronger he will be economically
although there is no realistic
basis for scare talk about the
Teamsters stopping the Ma
tion'S wheels.
Uniform National Contract
Mr.. Hoffa intends to en-
hance his economic power by
pressing for a uniform national
trucking contract, eventually
with a uniform expiration date.
He and his aides maintain that
the TeamSterS seek uniformity
to eliminate inequities and to
get around secondary boycott
prohibitions, not to put the
union in position to call Ma
tion-Wide strikes.
Big organizing plans have
given rise to talk about Mr..
Hoffa founding a new labor
federation to rival the AFL-
CIO, but his aides say he aims
only at a broadened Teatnsters
Union.
Rather than trying to estab-
lish a new federation, Mr.. Hoffa
intends to strengthen his
aid pacts and informal
arrangements with
other unions. He also may take
into the TeamSters one or two
unions expelled from the AFL-

Tennessee'S Ben Marley
Among Top Eligible
Coqe Droffees

Cleveland (ANP) - Who is
likely to be the first player draft
ed by National Basketball Assoc
iation teams this spring?
Stop before you answer It could
be Tom Stth, the great All-Amer-
lean from st. Bonaventure, or
Walt Bellamy, star pivotman at
Indiana.
But there also is a solid chance
that the player will be Ben Marley,
the former star at Tennessee State
A & I. If not first, certainly in
the first round.
Marley quit Tennessee State
last year to join his former coach,
John McCeondon, as a late-season
reinforcement for the Cleveland
Pipers in the National Basketball
League. This season he has become
a star performer in the cross
country amateur league.
Recently watching him in Dem
yer, Jim Pollard, coach of the new
Chicago entry commented on the
6-foot finch Marley and said he
would like to have him, but his
first choice will be the Gil Bel
lamy, who performed in the Olym-
pics.
But Lou Mohs, general manager
Of the Los Angeles Lakers, left
no doubt what he would do If War
ley survives the picks of the four
teams likely to be ahead of the
Lakers.
Il Just hope he lasts until we
can get to him." said Mohs. He'll
surely go in the first round and
we don't get to choose until the
fifth"
In addition to Chicago, New
York, Detroit and Cincinnati all
will have a selection before Los
Angeles.

Grants Brother
Confident He Con
Make Tribe Team
BY Associated Negro Press

By Associated Negro Press
Tuscon, Ariz.-Hoping to give
the majors the first tan pitching
tandem in history, Julius Swamp
fire. Grant is confident that he
can make the Cleveland club this
year.
The 23-year-old southpaw, whose
brother, Jim, is the oldest man
on the Indians roster in point of
service, said shortly after his ar
rival here:
II don't see anything I have to
worry about. These boys don't look
any different to me than what we
have in Class A. Give me a chance
and I'll make this team"
swampfire came ticketed for
Salt Lake City, the Indians Pac-
ific Coast League affiliate. Two
years younger than Jim he looks
and acts like his older brother but
is smaller (5-11 and 173 pounds).
Julius has a Islands record last
season with Reading in the Class
A Eastern League and in four sea-
sons in organized baseball, he has
marked up IS wins.
Brother Played Together
Jim, of course, has been around
for four seasons with the Indians,
but the highlander has never
quite measured up to expectations.
However, he is considered a po-
tential 20-game star
His brother is a subtle hurler,
catching the corners and showing
hitters his fast ball. His control
hurt him last season after he had
record of 13 wins and four los
ses.
The grants played on their high
school team in Lacoochee, Fla,
and Swampfire says both were all
state and that their team won the
state prep championship.
II played first and Jim played
third" Swampfire recalls
They were both football players
and once they had an argument
over a play. The elder Grant was
quarterback and his brother was
a guard. Jim called a play in the
huddle and Swampfire questioned
his judgment. Jim's call prevailed
Swampfire was incensed and let
an opposing guard through. The
player whacked Jim and laid him
out.
That was the last time we had
a fight" Julius says.
The swampfire tag was a crea-
ton Of Frank Lane, former Cleve-
land general manager. He thought
1t would be a colorful companion
for the moniler Mudcat. That Is
what Jim is universally called.
