Prober Assails Loan By Union WA SHINGTON (UPI) — Chairman John L. McClellan of .he Senate Rackets Committee cited a defaulted million-dollar Teamsters loan today as a horibiC example of how to do business. The Arkansas Democrat referred to a complicated 1955 f ransaction in which funds from the union’s welfare coffers were used to back a Flint, Mich., real estate development. The committee heard testimony Thursday that the Winchester Development Co., of Detroit paid $104,000 in interest on the loan but defaulted on the principal. The union is now foreclosing in an effort to recoup some of the loss. The committee estimated the union might be left holding the bag for around $700,000, but Teamsters attorney George S. Fitzgerald told reporters it would make out much better than that. The committee also brought out that Fitzgerald and two ether attorneys split a $35,000 fee from the company which obtained the loan. There was some question as to whether they got the fee for legal work or for steering the company to the welfare fund as a source of investment capital. McClellan told newsmen the record of the loan “might well be used as a text in high finance, showing the way things shouldn’t be done.” Committee counsel Robert F. Kennedy said Fitzgerald would be called to explain the loan when the herrings resume next week. He said the promoters— Abe Green and Jack Winshall. partner^ in the real estate venture—also may testify.

use of higher-octane gasolines and more short trips by motorists. The higher-octane gasolines has a greater amount of acidity which eats through mufflers much faster, he said. Short trips cause moisture to form in mufflers but the cars never become hot enough to evaporate the moisture, he explained, leaving the moisture to rust through the
muffler.

I the Van Tfuren fiare-up mar cause him to sign-anti'twtPgration bills passed by th' Legislature's special session last vvc,?k earlier than he had expected. Three white students at Van Buren telegnphed the governor Thursday, asking him to prevent integration at the school.

Several parents of striking students held a closed meeting in a Van Bunen cafe Thursday night but had “no comment” to newsmen's queries. Many of the students in the mob said they had tbeir parents’ ! support, but one woman drove past the school, looked at the boys, and quietly said to a re- ; porter. ‘•I’m ashamed to say that : I havy> a son in that group.” Despite- the white students’ protest, two Negro girls and a : Negro boy attended school Thursday.

VAN BUREN. Ark. (UPI) — White students striking against integration at Van Buren High i School apparently achieved their objective today. Not a Negro was seen entering school before I classes started. About a dozen girls joined 45 to 50 white boys in the strike today.

He said if the Negro students don't leave the 650- pupil Van Buren school in six days, “then w,a will put them out for good.” “Not a white student will be in { the building,” another belligerent white male said in respect to today’s strike.

And the statistical agency reported sales of mufflers during 1958 were expected to rise between 10 and 12 par cent, an increase which will close some of the gap between spark plugs and
mufflers.
Actually, sales of all replacement parts increased substantially and appeared headed for a new all-time record during 1958. This was due to the fact that motoristis were keeping their cars
