Frank Connelly, New York lawyer for Upper Lakes Ship- ping Limited, said the subpoena was served on Banks about 6 p.m. Friday. on,a cruiser be- longing to the Seafarers Inter- national Union (Ind.) in Brook- lyn harbor. He said a U.S. federal mar- shal served the summons with- out trouble, ordering Banks to appear within two weeks in fed- eral court in Manhattan to make a deposition in the dam- age suit. The suit, brought as a result of labor trouble on the Great Lakes during the 1962-63 ship- ping seasons, claims damages as a result of loss of business by Upper Lakes. Connelly said Banks has been in New York for "several weeks" as a guest on the SIU yacht generally used by Pres- ident Paul Hall. He said it was '"'remarkable'"' that the RCMP and FBI couldn't find Banks if they wanted him. NO TROUBLE TO FIND "We have no trouble finding him whenever we want him," he said. "I think the answer is that they (the RCMP and FBI) don't want him." Banks' signature on the sub- poena receipt was said to have been followed by the words "'ex- ecutive vice-president" although SIU_ officials. said. earlier this week that Banks had resigned from all SIU offices. The unions have filed counter- suits against Upper Lakes, claiming loss of membership dues, Examination for discov- ery in the Upper Lakes suit, a preliminary to court action, has been under way in camera in New York for about three weeks with Company President J. D. Leitch of Toronto making his deposition during ail that time. Banks disappeared from Can- Subpoena to jail him for 30 days on @ contempt charge for ignoring & court injunction in a ship walk- out. . : On Sept. 15, the Quebec Su- preme Court rejected Banks' appeal from a conviction and @ five-year sentence: for conspif- acy to assault a rival union of- ficial, BAIL FORFEITED When he did not appear for the appeal, his $25,000 bail was forfeited. 3 The suit by Upper Lakes, which was the tanget of a long SIU picketing campaign after its crews ceased to be repre- sented by the union headed 'by Banks, is against the SIU, the International - Longshore- men's Association and the Mar- ine Engineers Beneficial Asso- ciation. After hearing that Banks was aboard the yacht in Brooklyn harbor, a Coast Guard petty of- ficer went aboard Friday, an according to a spokesman, was "given a bit of difficulty in that the people on board were not very co-op- erative." The spokesman said the petty officer reported to his superiors, and a larger party was sent under the command of a com- missioned officer. "They did not try to give the second party any problem," he added. He said the party held all those on board until the ar- rival of immigration and cus- toms officers, but could not say what their mission was. Other Officials could not be reached immediately for details, The an y the Coast Guard had found "one small violation" on the yacht concerning display of registra- tion numbers, He would not give the regis of the craft and said he did not know its name. Banks, an American citizen, faces a bench warrant for his arrest if he ever returns to Canada, However, Canadian au- thorities have said he is not liable for extradition under the ada in July after a civil war- rant was sworn out in Montreal conspiracy charge under which he was convicted in Canada.
