"Against this statement of need, we have the opinion of housing production has been re- tarded at a time of greatly in- creasing demand, of greatly in- creased need, and what is even {more unfortunate is that the strength of this new demand is not yet fully appreciated." | Mr. Nicholson said there were {about 134,000 housing starts in 11966, the lowest figure since DETROIT (AP)--James Rid- dle Hoffa stepped into the presi- dency of the Teamsters Union behind a long - time chieftain who went to federal prison. When Hoffa goes to prison to- |day, a Teamsters vice - presi- |dent, Frank E. Fitzsimmons, will step in behind him--just as vice-president Hoffa did when Dave Beck was jailed for evad- ing federal income taxes. Hoffa was convicted of at- tempting to: bribe jurors trying him on charges of sharing in an illegal $1,000,000 kickback from a Detroit trucking firm. The kickback case ended in a mis- trial. but the conviction of jury- tampering resulted in an eight- year jail sentence. In his nine years at the top, Hoffa has had few days when some congressional committee, grand jury, or government agency hasn't been snapping at his heels. To questions about his police record, Hoffa used to say: "It's as long as your arm." There were 17 arrests but only twice was he convicted. Once he was fined $1,000 and another time he paid $500 costs. Hoffa -- five - feet - five, 165 pounds--has a pugnacious na- ture, and has said 'nobody is going to make me squirm, wiggle, twist or turn--to hell with them.'"' Many of his arrests were in picket line brawls. But his Teamsters, who call him Jimmy wherever he goes, have delighted in referring to him as '"'muscle only from the ears down." He neither smokes nor drinks. Schooled in the rough-and- tumble scramble of the depres- sion era, the now 54-year-old Hoffa fought his way up from a 32-cent-an-hour dock boy's job. He became president of the 1,800,000 - member Teamsters Union without ever having driven a truck for a livelihood Hoffa Second Teamster To Go To Federal Prison lished the family in a Polish- Slovak neighborhood in Detroit. Jimmy started working at 14. ORGANIZER AT 17 It was on a chain grocer's warehouse dock that Hoffa be- came a unionist at 17. He organ- ized his fellow workers, al- though the youngest, and timed a walkout to coincide with ar- rival of a shipment of perish- able strawberries. He won his strike by keeping demands low. By the time he was 21 he had taken over Detroit Teamsters Local 299, of which he still is president, and which has grown from 250 members to a claimed membership of 17,000. Even before Beck went to prison in 1958, Hoffa was con- sidered more powerful than the president. He was a vice-presi- dent and headed the mighty midwest Conference of Team- sters. Hoffa, in 66 days before Sen- ator John McClellan's rackets committee in 1956 didn't once invoke the U.S. constitution's fifth amendment against self- incrimination, but chairman McClellan (Dem, Ark.) accused him of having "a convenient forgettery."' FACED KENNEDY It was while before this com- mittee that Hoffa met the man who was to become his nemesis Senator Robert F. Kennedy (Dem. N.Y.), then committee counsel.
