Asks Justice Department For Probe Os Hoffa Possible Perjury Charge Suggested By Sen. McClellan WASHINGTON <UPD — Chairman John L. McClellan called today for a Justice Department investigation of possible perjuryin Teamster President James R. Hoffa’s testimony before the Senate Rackets Committee. The Arkansas Democrat said conflicts between Hoffa’s testimony last fall and the sworn statements of former heavyweight box- ' er Embrel Davidson made necessary an investigation “to determine who perjured himself.” “Definitely, such conflicts could hardly be any misunderstanding,” McClellan said. He also observed that the records appeared to back up the story Davidson gave the committee today. “Either Davidson perjured himself, or Hoffa was not telling the truth when he testified - before, McClellan said. Davidson, billed as a mystery witness in the current inquiry, told while working for Union Vice the committee he drew $75 a week President Owen Bert Brennan, who W’as his manager. Committee Counsel Robert F. Kennedy quoted from the transcript of Hoffa’s testimony last fall in which the Teamster leader said Davidson got no money from the union.

3,125 Estimate On Cattle Test Costs Plan Brucellosis, Tuberculosis Tests A $3,125 estimate was submitted by the Indiana State Livestock Board for the combined county cost of testing cattle for brucellosis and tuberculosis in Adams county during 19597 The testing will re-certify Adams county as a modified-certified bovine brucellosis-free area by the animal disease eradication division of the U. S. department of agriculture. Testing in Adams county first began in the fall of 1955, reaching Its completion in 1956. The testing began when milk sheds in Chicago and Cleveland stated they would no longer purchase milk from dairys unless it came from a modi-fied-certified bovine brucellosisfree area. Cleveland and Chicago are demanding that milk be from certified herds and areas, and some states are prohibiting importation of cattle that are not from certified herds. Animals from certified areas usually bring higher prices because of their freedom to move. Animals and animal products can move more freely from The area ~to wider ThafkefsT' IT Is easier to maintain a brucellosisfree herd if there is no infection in the community. Brucellosis (Bang’s disease) presents a dual threat. It causes abortion, sterility and reduced milk production in cattle. Brucellosis costs Illinois farmers an estimated $3 million loss annually in milk and meat. It can also infect human beings, causing a long, incapacitating illness known as undulant fever. The disease also attacks swine and causes abortion and bone admage. While there are a few cases in Adams county, the community had one of the lowest incidence rates in the state. The expense for the brucellosis testing is shared through federal and state aid. Federal pays 50 per cent, the state, 25 per cent, and the county pays 25 per cent. The total to be paid by the county will be SSOO. The tuberculosis testing program is set up on a six-year basis, with two townships receiving the testing each year. In 1959, Wabash and

Preble townships will receive the testing. -—...— The county must pay all of the tuberculosis testing through its own funds. The testing will cost an estimated $2,625 for the two townships. The Indiana state livestock board, cooperating with the animal disease eradication branch of the United States department of agriculture, will conduct a tuberculosis test on all cattle in the county except calves under six months of age, steers and feeder cattle. The board will test any herd in the county at any time it has reason to believe that infection exists in a herd. It will determine whether the testing shall be conducted in whole or in part by full time state employed, licensed accredited veterinary inspectors or by licensed, accredited private veterinary practitioners. The accreditation of the county as a modified, accredited tubercu-losis-free area will be governed by applicable federal and state regulation; provided, that such accreditation shall be extended for
