...some, perhaps, unbelievable. But from the conspiracy trial of the so-called "Chicago Eight" comes evidence that the movie black's suspicions are not all that farfetched. Carl Oilman, 27, a cameraman and sometime reporter for San Diego's KFMB-TV, and Louis Salzberg, 40, a press photographer, each testified to having accepted money from the FBI for work he performed under professional cover as an accredited newsman...
...after "them" with diligence, rarely missing a rally or a demonstration, ingratiating himself with radical leaders, and Dave Dellinger in particular, passing along "thousands" of prints to FBI agents.

Contracts covering some 4,000,000 workers in such basic industries as railroads, trucking, autos, construction, rubber and meat packing will expire in 1970. Unionists will press strongly for wage gains to keep ahead of inflation. Caught in a profit squeeze, management is likely to resist with equal vigor...
