Union Boss Denies Reports Of Power Shift In Teamsters
DETROIT AP Frank Fitzsimmons acting president of the Teamsters angrily challenged claims of a changed power structure within the 1.8 million member union. He called reports of a Chicago meeting that decentralized control outright lies and said Hoffa policies still guide the union as Hoffa seeks a new trial. Local 337 president Robert Holmes said the meeting was mostly inaccurate and that the national contract was the only correct point discussed as mail balloting on the settlement proceeds.
