Electricians Union
Extends Anchorage
Local Jurisdiction
ANCHORAGE, W — The Inter
national Brotherhood of Electrical
-Workers has given its Anchorage
local union jurisdiction over line
men and wiremen hired by con
tractors for all jobs in Alaska.
The new policy points the way
for probable consolidation of the
union’s five Alaska locals into a
single state-wide local, an IBEW
official said last week.
In the past, hiring jurisdiction
was vested in locals for contract
ing jobs in their respective areas.
George Mulkey. of San Francis
co, the union’s international rep
resentative, said the new policy
“means Alaskans will get first call
on job bids.” The change conforms
to the National Labor Relations
Board ruling dealing with exclu
sive hiring hall agreements.
The change affects only line
men and wiremen and their ap
prentices working for contractors.
About half of, the IBEW Alaska
membership of 1,200 workers falls
into that category, Mulkey said.

Iran Extends
Coastal Limits
TEHRAN, Iran, UFi — Prime
Minister Manouchehr Eghbal asked
parliamentary permission Satur
day to extend Iran’s territorial
waters to 12 miles offshore. Ap
proval was expected within three
weeks.
The move apparently was in re
ply to an extension of territorial
waters to 12 miles by neighboring;
Iraq, on November 18.
Iraq has only a small coastline
on the Persian Gulf, where the
combined Tigris and Euphrates:
Rivers empty. Iran owns the en
tire eastern side of the Gulf. The
Iraqi decree provides for peace
ful negotiation of any disagree
ment caused by the extension or
dered in Baghdad.
A number of nations, from Ice
land to Communist China have
extended their seaward limits
from three to 12 miles in recent
months. The United States, Bri
tain and many other countries re
fuse to recognize the extensions.
There are 38 public recreation
sites along the highways in Alas
ka, in addition to several in Mc
Kinley National Park. The sites
are primarily designed as camp
grounds and picnic areas.
