Supreme Court weighs halt on Teamsters officer vote
Chief Justice Warren agreed to consider a plea to block a national Teamsters officer election this week. Rank and file members claim a dictatorship within the union and seek a temporary injunction that would have barred a Miami Beach convention vote won by James R. Hoffa. The Circuit Court stayed that injunction, and the appeals sought reinstatement to prevent an early election if the high court did not act.
