TRUSTEE DAY

Members Of the First Insti-

your trustees, deem it imper-
ative that this trustee Day
Program be primarily designed
for fund raising to tide our

membership an extra financial
effort on the 4th Sunday of

We have purposely failed to
stipulate any specific amount;
let us give as our hearts die

Will we be able to match our
goal with our program?

James R. Hoffa's grab for
new economic and political
power-keyed to his dream Of
a 2-million- member Teamsters
Union-haS run into a mild
and cautious counter offensive
His foes in the labor move
ment, if they exploit their
breaks skillfully, probably are
strong enough to slow or stop
his advance. But they ap-
parently lack the drive, the
generalship and the weapons
to push him back or knock him
down any time soon.
Mr.. Hoffa proclaimed his ex-
pansion plans in bold, boast
full strokes when he was re-
elected president of the Team
Sters at the unions Miami con-
vention in July. He was then
at a peak of power, having freed
himself from supervision by
the unions court-appointed
board Of monitors and tight
ened his grip on the Teamster
political machine.
Since the convention, Mr..
Hoffa has done very little to
carry out his plans. The main
reason is that he has been
tied UP almost continuously
with contract negotiations on
the West Coast.
But even after he finishes
that job, he will find it diff
cult to transform his loud talk
into action and achievement.
Faces Resistance
He faces rumbles of rebellion
within the TeamSterS Union,
stiffening resistance from the
AFL-CIO and continuing ha-
rasSment by the Government.
Laying the groundwork for
Mr.. Hoffa's growth plans, the
convention took these actions:
Raised members dues by 81
a month, and increased the
monthly per capita tax COL
lected by national headquarters
from 40 cents to 81.
Boosted the presidents SAL
airy from $4,000 to $4,000 per
year.
Gave national officers in
creased spending freedom.
Established a liberal pension
plan for local officers and en-
ployes, with control entrusted
to national headquarters.
Authorized Mr.. Hoffa to ap-
point directors for each of
four Teamster area con-
ferenceS.
Broadened TeamSter organiZ-
ing jurisdiction to cover all
workers"
