About 2,000 persons con verged on the U.S. embassy. A small effigy of Mr.

Johnson quickly went up in flames. The demonstrators yelled "Johnson Al Capone," "Bravo Russia," and "Out With the Fleet." ONE HUGE placard depicted a lion with Mr. Johnson's face. By the side of the lion was Cyprus President Makarios shown removing a Turkish fez from Mr. Johnson's head.

The anti-American attacks over the Cyprus issue came as a U.S. Air Force jet was winging to Athens from Germany with a rare drug needed by King Paul in his fight for life against complications from a recent stomach ulcer operation.

(UPI) Charges of bias on the part of a Federal judge last night delayed jury consideration of the James R. Hoffa jury tampering trial.

Attorneys for the Teamsters president and his five code-fendants charged that Federal Judge Frank Wilson had incorrectly charged the jury in such a manner as to influence the jurors on behalf of the government's position. WILSON, who was all set to turn the case over to the panel of eight men and four vomen when the objections came, excused the jury while hj heard the arguments. The defense said that Wilson actually added to the government's closing argument rather than simply sticking to points of law. One defense lawyer said the judge almost directed a ver dict on behalf of the govern ment" in the manner of his charge. "The court unfairly pre sented the law to the jury and each point of the charge ends with the suggestion that the defendants be found guilty," defense attorneys argued.

After hearing the arguments, the judge turned aside the mistrial motion and the case was placed in the hands of the jury at 7:25 p.m. THE COURT spent most of the day listening to summation arguments, and then Wilson read a lengthy two-hour charge to the jury. Following his charge, Wilson gave both sides the opportunity to raise objections to his instructions, and it was at this point the defense raised its contention of bias. Hoffa, president of the 1,700,000 member Teamsters Union, the largest union in the nation, appeared confident, and at times bored, as the long case reached its climax. He yawned at one point while Wilson was making his jury charge.

Sitting in his own court room, which he had loaned to Judge Brown for the Ruby trial, Wilson heard chief defense attorney Melvin Belli argue against his taking over the trial. Wilson listened just so long. Then he snapped: "Now that's enough. Take your seat, Mr. Belli." District Attorney Henry M.
