The driver was arrested but his accuser failed to appear in court to press the charges. "Since this agitation has started, Cleveland is becoming clean as a Wenger said.

The governor said he would favor a state law making it illegal to force hiring unloaders. The two men were among about 70 who crowded into Lausche's office to discuss the situation. Lausche said an investigation by the highway patrol showed that truckers and business firms had been threatened if they refused to hire local man to unload the vehicles. The investigation, Patrol Sgt. J.

V. Seryak said, showed that the unloading crews charge a full day's pay of $15 regardless of the amount of time needed. He cited an instance where one man had made more than $100 unloading trucks in one day. Lausche said he understood one company had hired a man to unload trucks but that he quit because he could make more money on a parttime basis. The investigation showed, the officer said, that while the AFL Teamsters Union opposed the hiring of local men for such loading, local unions had provided the necessary men, Lausche told the mayors and businessmen the meeting was to "evolve a program" to deal with the situation.

Hirt of the Hirt Trucking Co. told Lausche that the "unions took over" when he tried to unload a truck at a Columbus Kroger store a year ago. Hirt said he refused to hire a local man to help unload the truck and that the store manager told him to unload.

He said that a few minutes later the store manager went to the scene and was told that "your business is in the store and we will run this part of it." Hirt said the store manager left when the union threatened to pull other employes off the job. He said that he then paid to have a local man unload the truck.
