Teamsters Picket New York Oktoberfest Protest
In Bryant Park New York UPI reports Teamsters Union pickets object to city funds backing an authentic German style Oktoberfest. They complain imported beer supports foreign brewers leaving local workers idle as balloons drift and a Bavarian band plays. About 5 000 attendees enjoy the festival while outsiders are unaware of the protest.
