[edit] Sec. of Labor

I removed the references to Beck being asked to be Secretary of Labor three times. That's clearly a reference to Daniel J. Tobin, his predecessor. It's not mentioned in Beck's biography in the Biographical Dictionary of American Labor, which is pretty definitive. But if someone thinks it should go in, I'd suggest a better reference than a local magazine. - Tim1965 00:30, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
