Tobin Endorses
Kefauver For
The White House
WASHINGTON (W—Dan
iel J. Tobin, president of the
biggest AFL union in this
country, is .telling his mem
bers that Sen: Estes Kefau
ver should be President of
the United States.
Tobin heads .the International
Brotherhood of Teamsters, a full
million strong with a net worth in
cash and United. States and Can
adian builds amounting to'exactly
>35.201.661.60 as of tJec. 31. 1951.
The country needs a crusader.
Tobin told his members in the
March issue of the union’s maga
zine.
—ASK FOR ,CLEAN-UP" .
i “We have so many penny-ante
boodlers -t I should call them
thieves—that it is necessary we
have .another clean-up,” Tobin
reported to the membership.
In at least two contests, the late
President . Roosevelt opened his
hv addiwecac tn fhn
campaign by addresses to the
Teamsters union.
During labor troubles, the Rep
ublicans would make much of Mr.
Rossevolt’s reference to Tobin as.
“My MR friend, Dan.”
Tobin said the young Democrat
(from Tennessee could do the job.
Kefauver stands well with labor.
The AFL supported him -in IBM
when he licked Boss Crump’s
machine to win his. Senate seal.
The AFL is not endorsing Ke
fauver as of now, and probably
will not. Some leaders think he is
too young—doesn't carry enough
weight But the AFL likes trim.
