Subject: Bensinger dismissal
	As an outsider to AFL affairs, I've been impressed with the refreshing
tone and emphases of  Richard Bensinger's public statements.  (His
appearance at the American Sociological Association's meetings in NY, for
example, was an encouraging sign.)  That's why his dismissal as the AFL's
organizing director in June was perplexing to me.
	Does anyone with more information about this situation have any insight
into what's happening?  Is this another troubling sign about the AFL's
committment to organizing or is there more here?
