BurWednesday alerted the nation s health officers that the European outbreak probably would hit this country. PHS officials said there is no present plan to urge the public in general to get another round of flu shots. Dr. Burney, however, recommended that persons In "special risk groups" such as the aged, the chronically ill and pregnant women — persons in whom a secondary infection could be dangerous — should consult their physicians on the need for a flu vaccination. Hie health chief also urged inoculations against flu for hospital staffs and industrial oor service workers whose sudden mass absenteeism could cause a serious disruuption of work.

Rackets Probe On Juke Boxes Pushed Deeper WASHINGTON <UPD — The Senate Rackets Committee promised to reveal for the first time today part of the inside story of what went on at the secret 1957 “underworld convention” at Apalachin, N. Y. Chief Counsel Robert F. Kennedy tipped newsmen that this disclosure was coming as the committee pushed deeper into a juke box jungle inhabited by New York hoodlums and labor racketeers. He said the details would be supplied by Lt. James Mooney of the New York police who is on loan to the committee. He said Mooney had learned that the coin machine business was one matter discussed at the gangland conclave. , Interviewed Hoodlum “Delegates” The committee interviewed some of the hoodlum "delegates” last year during its investigation of the Mafia international crime syndicate. They wdre uniformly uncommunicative about what went on. Others were called in Wednesday. They also invoked the Fifth Amendment when asked whether com machines were on the agenda at Apalachin before the convention was broken up by police. However, the committee heard other testimony that underworld figures in all parts of th# country have fattened their money belts on the nickels and dimes pouring into juke boxes, pinball .games and vending machines. Juke Box Violence It began a detailed examination of operations in individual areas, starting with New York. The juke box business in Manhattan and environs was pictured as teeming with violence, labor- management collusion and mobster terrorism More of the same type erf testimony was expected today from such witnesses as James Cagiano. head of a variety of union locals, and Albert Denver, president of the Music Operators 'at New York, a trade organization. The committee was told ’ Wednesday that Cagiano escaped ’ a plot to throw him out of a ' Broadway office window, only to receive a beating in Denver's office lat pr . J , Beat Gup Opponent j It also heard a first-hand account, of > beating administered to , Milton Green, a Brooklyn juke e box operator, after he opposed the signing of an association contract j with Teamster Local 266. B Green said thugs accosted him r on his own doorstep about seven j months ago and creased his skull, with an iron rod, causing a concussion that has troubled him i ever since. . It was brought out that a half , a dozen different labor groups 5 were competing for juke box jurisdiction and sometimes picketed , each others e.
