Syracuse Teamsters official to testify in bid to block Hoffa rise
Ernest Demont shop steward of Syracuse Local 317 is slated to testify in Washington before Judge Letts in a bid by 43 rank and file members to obtain a permanent injunction blocking James R. Hoffa from rising to the Teamsters presidency. The case challenges the September convention's delegate selections as illegal with witnesses from Local 182 Utica and other locals to be called. A separate note reports about 200,000 acres of virgin timber in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
