FBI agent-in-charge Robert Gebhardt said military cards were found on Goodell, including one from Ft. Riley, Kan. The entire $450,000 was recovered, the agent said. Action Needed The hijacker gave a note to the pilot which said the ransom money, obtained from PSA along with one parachute, "would be given to two organizations involved in the Mideast crisis," a Federal Aviation Administration official said.

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) A young AWOL soldier seized a Pacific Southwest Airlines jetliner for $450,000 ransom, which he said would be given to groups "involved in the Mideast crisis," and ordered the plane 1,000 miles up and down California before surrendering early today to his hostage, a law officer, authorities said. The air pirate, who gave up after the jetliner landed at Oakland International Airport, was identified by the FBI as WASHINGTON (AP) AFL-CIO President George Meany headed for the Democratic National Convention today, reportedly determined to block the presidential nomination of Sen. George McGovern. Driven by personal as well as political antipathy, the labor titan has launched a drive that commands the sympathies of most union presidents if not their wholehearted support.

Some have voiced misgivings that an unrelenting anti-McGovern campaign could destroy a tenuous party unity and encourage the re-election of President Nixon, like McGovern the target of numerous Meany barbs. If McGovern wins the nomination despite Meany, labor leaders would be confronted with limited options, none palatable to them. Meany and his chief political strategist, AI were County and Municipal Empldf ees. Edward Carlough, presidenl of the Sheet Metal Workers, said if such a move were sub-cessful "it would make thl nomination totally worthless anybody else." Some union presidents hava appealed to Meany to tone down the anti-McGovern drive. But, in a showdown, most union presidents still bow to Meany'i wishes on major issues.

"I'm going along with Meany, whatever he does," said the chief of one large construction union, who asked not to be quoted by name. Another source said, "II McGovern gets the nomination, it becomes a competition between McGovern and Nixon, and labor simply couldn't bi neutral or for Nixon." Others consider neutrality a real possibility. The support of the 13.6-mil-lion-member federation of 121 unions and its money-raising Committee on Political Education is considered crucial to the chances of any Democratic nominee to defeat Nixon in November. COPE mailed out 50 million pieces of political literature in 1968 and was credited with almost swinging the presidential election to Sen. Hubert H.

Humphrey. The note continued: "Recent actions by the Air Line Pilots Association and secretary of transportation have caused consternation in our organization and we are forced to take prompt action." Some ALPA members last month took part in a one-day work stoppage to protest the recent wave of air piracy throughout the world and to demand better security measures. It was the second hijacking for PSA, an intrastate airline, in two days. On Wednesday FBI agents stormed aboard a PSA jetliner at San Francisco International Airport, killing two hijackers who had demanded $800,000 in ransom and escape to Siberia. A passenger was shot in killed by one of the hijackers, the FBI said, and two other passengers were wounded.

The Oakland air pirate gave up his guns to California Highway Patrol Capt. Lloyd T. Turner, who he held as a hostage on the flight.
