minute compromise emerged, the votes by

other diseases such as psittacosis which could
be dangerous to human health

Top Teamsters Under Fire
Published Report Alleges Union Corruption
area
death/
WASHINGTON (UPD) - Teamsters President Frank
Fitzsimmons and his top union bosses freely and illegally line
their own pockets with millions of dollars, according to
records compiled by union reformers.
Drawn entirely from public records, the report published
Thursday by leaders of a 2,000-member group of dissident
Teamsters known as PROD Inc., pulled together for the first
time all known evidence of alleged corruption in the nation's
biggest union
PRQD members see it as a possible wedge for reform and
hope it may spur official investigations.
The report sketched a dramatic portrait of the Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Teamsters as a corrupt giant con-
trolled totally by Fitzsimmons, whose cronies are rewarded
with annual salaries exceeding $100,000, free cars and homes,
huge pensions and unlimited extras
While outlining specific financial abuses by nearly 200
named Teamster leaders, the report generally accused them
of violating federal labor law and sealing "sweetheart" deals
with employers.
"There is at least one lawsuit on every other page," said
author Arthur Fox.
Teamsters officials refused to comment But a trucking
company spokesman said the 117-page report simply put
“everything between two covers."
Prompted in part by the unsolved disappearance of ex-
Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa, the report said fear of
physical harm and unemployment has squelched reform
efforts among the union's 2.3 million members.
Government failure and the weakness of federal labor law
were blamed for allowing Teamster corruption
Teamster reform is impossible, the report said. But Fox
was less pessimistic when he told reporters “the tide is about
to change in the Teamsters union."
He said Fitzsimmons has one last chance to shape up the
union during an upcoming Las Vegas convention; he can
expect the union .to be-reformed by "outsiders" once the
federal goverment and the Senate conclude current in-
testigations.
The report found that 147 favored Teamster officials re-
ceived more than $40,000 each from the union during 1974 —
17 of them more than $100,000, a dozen more than $120,000 and
a few approaching $200,000.

subdivisions and to split the cost of street crossing guards
near city schools with the Denton school district.
The council was told that money would not be needed
during the next fiscal year for manpower and equipment at
the proposed new fire substation in east Denton.
Construction timetables after the project is funded will
push completion of the facility into the 1977-78 fiscal year,
City Manager Jim White said.
Tabled for more study until a special meeting Tuesday
afternoon were proposals to increase building inspection fees
to allow the city inspection department to pay its own way, to
turn ownership of Hickory Creek Park on Lake Lewisville
back to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, to grant city
employes cost-of-living pay increases, and either to increase
the cost to Denton County for fire calls made outside of the
city or to disconnect that service altogether
