The committee fired a final volley at Hoffa as it completed its second investigation of thc Mid-west union leader. j
Paved With Promises
A witness testified that he worked for Hoffa on a scheme to sel! retirmg inick drivers lots in an Orlando, Fla., real estate project where ihe streets were paved only with promi.scs. Hoffa used tbe union's financial influ-' ence,  risked  nothing personally,!
and   stood   to   make   a   2..')00% r>      t  i
