The chai man of the special
. Senate mittee investigating
improper 1. , •0r and industry ac
tivities, Se McClellan (D.-Ark.),
said the bobks had received "a
little treatment."
Frank W. Brewster, Teamsters
vice president and chairman of
the union's Western Conference,
said he didn't know of the big
loan to Beck. How much it might
have been never was brought out,
as members of the committee staff
said there was no record such a
loan ever was made.
Beck to Explain
Carmine Bellino, committee ac
countant, testified there was noth
ing about the loan in any union
records until a $200,000 repay
ment was listed in August 1954.
That was several months after
the Internal Revenue Service be
gan thumbing Beck's records.
Subsequently two more pay
ments brought the total up $270,-1
110.16. Beck will get a chance to
explain, after he takes the witness
stand - next Tuesday.
Committee Finishes Inquiry
With the summing up of ques
tioned financial operations, the
committee rang down the curtain
on, the West Coast phase of its
inquiry.
Fourweeks of testimony
brought out charges, and denials,
that Teamster officials backed
prostitution and gambling in Port
land, Ore. There also were alle
gations that they applied union
dues money to private homes, rac
ing stables, cars; and other per
sonal uses.
Violent Earthquakes
Hit San Francisco
SAN FRANCISCO, March 22 (?P)—A series of earth
quakes—two so violent that the earth groaned audibly and
tall buildings swayed for a half-minute in San Francisco—
dealt injury and property damage over a 150-mile area today.
Five shocks were spread over a period of 4 1 / 2 hours. The
latest rumbling quake shook the
city at 3:15 p.m.
More than a dozen persons were
bruised and cut by being hurl
against walls or struck by falling
objects. Buildings cracked. Plas
ter fell.
Tumbling boulders closed coast
alhighways.; Thousands of fright
ened peopl spilled into thel
streets. .
Gas mains were severed. Scores
of small fir broke out in San
Francisco, w 'eh bore the brunt
in 1906 of an earthquake and fire
which cost 90 lives.
Schools Dismissed
Schools and colleges dismissed
classes.
A painter working atop the Gol
den Gate - Bridge said the span
"shook like a tree in a gale."
The two major shocks, like the
one-two rapid fire punch of a
boxer, began at 11:45 a.m. The
earth groaned as it twisted. Two
lesser shocks occurred an hour
earlier, and an hour later, than
Lists
This second meeting between
the two since the secretary gen
eral arrived here -early Thursday
followed almost continuous ses
sions today between Hammar
skjold and Egyptian Foreign Min
ister Mahmoud Fawzi. Altogether
the two talked together more than
12 hours yesterday and today.
Seek to Solve Problems
Hammarskjold and Fawzi, both:
international lawyers, were seek-,'
ing to thread their way through,
such tangles as the Suez Canal,
the Gaza Strip and the Gulf of
Aqaba.
It appeared Fawzi wants solu
tions which would make Presi
dent Nasser cooperative in West
ern eyes without seeming to sur
render in Arab eyes.
On the Suez Canal, the prob
lem is to guarantee the rights of
canal users without stepping on
Egypt's sovereignty. •
Dag Seeks Peace
On Palestine, Hammarskjold is
1
seeking peace within the frame-
work of the 1949 armistice.
Since the United Nations Emer
gency- Force commander, Maj.
!Gen. E. L. M. Burns, participated
in the afternoon meeting, it al
' most certainly dealt with UNEF
prOblems in the Gaza Strip and
on the shore of the Gulf of Aqaba.
Demand Israeli Acceptance
Egyptians are agreeable in prin
ciple to maintaining UNEF 'Drees
along the armistice line but insist
on the Israelis also accepting
UNEF on their side of the line.
This the Israelis have refused to
do.
The Egyptians are going slow
in remilitarizing Gaza, but are
Unwilling to relinquish:their right
to send in troops. Hammarskjold
'is not questioning the Egyptian
right to a/PI itzister the Gaza
Strip.

the midday giant jolts.
In between, almost too many
aftershocks to be counted were
felt in southern San Francisco
and the San Francisco peninsula.
The big jolt was felt from Sac
ramento, .75 miles north of San
Francisco, to Hollister 75 miles
south.
The big ones rang the bell of
St. Patrick's church on Mission'
and 4th Sts. The shocks also I
touched off fire alarm signals.
Six jury trials, one a murder
