The Boston Globe Saturday, January 23, 1965 Slain Reddington Long Operated in Roxbury Area SLAYING Strike's End Seen Perishable Cargo Worked atN.Y. 1 V'! $175,000 Fire Fails to Halt Salem News SALEM The Salem News today announced the regular evening edition would pub-''liSh today, despite a general alarm fire which wrecked part of the plant Friday night Four firemen were injured and 13 stores and offices damaged in the $175,000 general-alarm blaze. Capt. Robert April, 37, and Lt. James Sullivan, 36, were overcome by smoke on the second floor.

They were car- tied over ladders by comrades and taken to Salem Hospital. Capt. Robert Desmond was treated at the hospital for a deep finger cut requiring 10 stitches. Lt. John O'Neil was treated for face lacerations.

The fire started at 10:10 p.m. I day over a complete return-to-work movement on both coasts was I.L.A. Pres. Thomas (Teddy) Gleason, who said: "I think 24 to 48 hours at a maximum." Gleason meanwhile gave orders to remove New York Harbor pickets, allow a half dozen or more transatlantic luxury liners to resume runs, and said perishable cargo aboard freighters would be unloaded. "Other than these specific areas," Gleason added, "tha strike remains in effect." As he prepared to fly to Galveston, to take a hand in peace talks there, Gleason commented: "We have lots of issues to settle, but we could settle them in one day." However, Thomas J.

Burke, I.L.A. vice president for the South Atlantic ports, predicted it would take at least another week before an agreement would be reached in his auto inusrance sign advertises that he is prepared to take "all risks."

Senators Push Oppositi tion to VA Closings WASHINGTON (AP) Sen ators who oppose the adminis tration decision to close 11 veterans hospitals and 21 ether facilities plan to press their fight with further hear ings and by holding up the nomination of William J. to head the Veterans Administraiion.

A professional killer from New York was arrested by the FBI and State Police in the vicinity of his residence and place of business at the time. It was believed then that Joseph (Crazy Joey) Donahue was here on a contract to kill. Reddington returned to his activities three months ago. Two cars were parked out side his office when the body was found.

Both were covered by new-fallen snow. One was a new 1965 model, the other a year-old sedan with five-digit license plate, known to belong to the victim. Two years ago. Reddington home in Milton was bombed. He was in New Hampshire on a business trip.

At that time, he operated out of several of fices on Dudley st. in Roxbury. The latest gang murder fol lowed by eight days the fatal shooting of parolee Robert Rasmussen, 36, of Dedham, whose beaten and shot body was dumped near Silver Lake in Wilmington.

Reddington was considered a close associate of George Mc Laughlin, a fugitive carried on the FBI's "10 most wanted list." his name was carried on a confidential police list, identi fying McLaughlin's close un derworld friends and his enemies. For a dozen years, Reddington was considered by police the boss of criminal activities, including bookmaking and money lending, in the Dorchester and Roxbury areas.

He maintained a suite at a South Shore lodging establish in addition to his Milton North hnd gang trying to overthrow Keddingtons con trol The North End group and Reddington men turned South Shore drinking place into an armed camp as both frequented the same place and sat on opposite sides of the room glaring at each other. Reddington currently operated the Ab-Wey Realty Co. and the Ab-Wey Insurance Agency, both housed in the 1 "2-story structure at 1595 Main Rte. 18, in Weymouth at the Abington line. capture' Continued from Page 1 Early this morning, two men walked into the motel and asked HcfTernan to call them a cab.

"I Just s'nvd something," HcfTernan said later. "They Just didn't seem right." Pretending to call a cab, HefTeman instead called police.

The three were convicted of taking part in the famed 1950 robbery which netted 000. Only $50,000 of the loot has been recovered.

The Maffie hearing saw 13 testify before the board. Mon day's session is expected to be relatively short. Atty. William Homans of Cambridge, representing Faherty said he will call "five witnesses at the 1 very most." Geagan has not retained counsel and will plead his own case. Friday, the star witness, was Maffie, his hair still jet black and his frame carrying much more weight than when he went behind bars.

As on that day in 1956, when he sat in the prisoner's dock of the courtroom, his face was solemn and worrisome. He sat in front of the board and only a few feet from his wife, Eleanor, his daughter, Mrs. Linda Dalton, his son, Richard, 16, and three sisters and two brothers-in-law who testified for him. Maffie wore blue denim trousers and a neatly-pressed blue work shirt with A. Maf fie" stenciled on the back.

The prisoner had testified himself, the last of the witnesses, and it was the turn of the advisory board members to ask questions. "We re going to talk about a lot of things Mr Maffie." John T. Lane said. "We're going to talk of money and murder." Lane held the letter which Dist. Atty.

Byrne had sent to the board, opposing the freedom bids. Byrne claimed the prisoners had refused to discuss the whereabouts of the loot and the murders of three Brink's case witnesses, John Carlson, NEW YORK (AP) Longshoremen returned to work today in the port of New York under a nagreement to remove perishable cargo from ships. It wts the first time since the dock strike began 13 days ago that commercial ships were worked. The Waterfront Commission of the Port of New York said 150 longshoremen resumed their jobs at Newark and another 126 in Brooklyn. The agreement to work ships with perishable cargo was negotiated yesterday by the International Longshoremen's Assn.

and the New York Shipping Assn. after water front workers had voted Thurs day to accept a four-year contract they had rejected earlier. Meanwhile, the big Atlantic ports from Boston to Virginia appeared falling in line with the contract terms to end the East and Gulf Coast port walkout. But the deadlock mainly over the size of work gangs in ports from Morehead, N.C., to Brownsville, left some doubt over return to work by all 60,000 members of the A. F.

This was reported today by the Armed Forces Epidemiological Board, which said evidence from the survey indi cates that: Potential susceptibility to polio as gauged by the de gree of antibody protection possessed by individuals in jvarious parts of the nation, is nigher in tne xsonneast, North Mid-Atlantic and Pacific states, particularly the Northwest, than in othe rareas of the country.

While the explanation is not clear, one theory is that tnese areas 'a comoinauon environmental factors may limit the natural spread of Type III, to a greater extent than elsewhere in the United That is, people living in those areas may have less chance to be exposed to a mild polio infection that would give them some immunity against polio, even without the added protection of vaccine. By coincidence, the report came cut in the wake of an other report which demonstrated the value of vaccination anywhere. Spokesmen for the U.S. Public Health Service related Fri day that another record low number of polio cases was re- corded last year in the United States 121, 94 of them para-1 lytic. This compares with some 40,000 cases 10 years ago be fore the advent of polio vac cine.

Information Service Library in the city of Hue today, set fire to its books and stoned a U.S. vice consul when he tried to put out the flames. The mob, led by a vanguard of 100 hoodlums, smashed its way into the library in the old imperial capital city about 400 miles northeast of Saigon and built bonfires out of mounds of books. When U.S. Vice Consul Anthony Lake drove up and tried to enter the building to quell the fires, he was stoned by the mob.

William Stubbs, director of the (U.S.I.S.) branch, escaped the rioters when he slipped out the back door of the library to seek help. U.S. military commanders immediately put the entire city of Hue off limits to American personnel. Buddhist-led rioters also clashed with police in Saigon again today in the second day of anti-American riots. And in the coastal city of Nha Trang, other anti-American demonstrations took place.

At least 223 persons have been arrested in Saigon alone since the riots started yesterday because of U.S. backing of the government of Premier Tran Van Huong. Reports reaching here from the old imperial capital of Hue said the rioters there invaded the U.S. information service library, smashed its windows and burned half its books. In the city of Nha Trang, 200 Buddhists went on a public hunger strike tn the city square.

A small-scale shoving match also developed in front of Nha Trang's chief pagoda when police surrounded it with barbed-wire to keep demonstrators from assem- bling for an anti-government Small-scale disorders con 'inci Pl Saigon in the "uong mci mis morning Huong met this with U.S. Ambassador Max well Taylor and deputy am-hansndor U.

He added that such actions subvert security and must be severity punished. Riot people and two fire engines moved into Saigon's central market this evening to head off another expected in stallment of anti-American F. Buccelli.

Maffie said he didn't know anything about the murders, except for what he had read in the newspapers. He conceded that Byrne had accused the Brink's men of possessing knowledge of the murders but said Byrne "is liable to say anything." Lane asked him if he felt he would be a menace to society. "I don't know why I'd be a menace to society," Maffie replied. Davis Bill Adoptid ST. LOUIS (UPI)-A bill was adopted Friday by the St.
