This article presents information regarding a convention of the International Brotherhood of Teamster at the Miami Beach auditorium in Florida. Tom Hickey, one of the labor leaders and a member of Teamster, stood in the sunlit pressroom of the auditorium on the second day of convention to answer reporters. Answering to a question of possibilities for him to be elected as vice-president, after losing the presidential battle for Teamster, he said that there was no precedent. The other appropriate candidate, reportedly, was Jimmy Hoffa, another member of Teamster. The issue was clearly Jimmy Hoffa and the Red Cross against U.S. labor leader Walter Reuther and the Red Cross.
