Organizer To Be Questioned ByProbers WASHINGTON (UPI) — Senate investigators planned today ‘to question a Teamsters Union organizer who stirred up a storm in sunny Hawaii last year. The organizer, Mike Singer, was described as teamsters President James R. Hoffa’s “‘best friend” in Los Angeles. But some Honolulu businessmen consider him “‘per- sona non grata.” According to the committee, Los Angeles Local 626 sent Singer to Honolulu to organize some meat companies: But a committee spokesman’ said Singer’s tactics included halting milk deliveries for two days, ‘picketing the docks and bringing pressure on meat suppliers on the mainland. Small Business Administrator Wendell B. Barnes was scheduled to testify about the effects of Singer’s Honolulu junket on some firms there. Committee Counsel Robert F. Kennedy said other witnesses would be called to discuss Singer’s handling of union funds and some of his business activities. Singer was named in testimony Thursday as one of the teamsters who tried to keep a rebellious member of Los Angeles Local 208 from ousting a Hoffa-backed of- ficer. : Sidney Cohen, former 208 president, testified that he won an elec- tion last month to unseat John W.

Sen. Clair Engle (D-Calif.) was the principal author of the Senate bill. Rep. Craig Hosmer (R-Calif.) Fred C. Green, manager for Kennecott here, said today he still had no report on the value of stolen gold. However, he said the Secret Service was requested by Kennecott last July to begin an investigation. Gold and other precious metals are by-products of copper smelting by Kennecott. U.S. Bureau. of Mines statistics for 1957 show that 376,000 ounces of gold were produced in Utah that year, 90 per cent of it in the Bingham district where Kennecott operations are located.
