Governor Appeals
For End of Const.
Work Deadlock
FAIRBANKS, UP—Gov. William
A. Egan last night appealed dir
ectly to Alaska contractors and
labor organizations to reopen ne
gotiations in the statewide con
struction deadlock.
The governor made the appeal
just before leaving Fairbanks for
Minneapolis where he will be
honor guest and parade marshal
at the Aquatennial Celebration
tomorrow.
Gov. Egan asked that negotia
tions be resumed not later than
Monday, July 27.
In calling contractors and
labor officials to reopen negotia
tions by next Monday, the Gover
nor said he was cognizant of the
fact it would take a few days
before negotiations could be ex
pected to gather at a locality ag
reeable to both sides.
“This situation can and must
be resolved,” the Governor said.
“Unless a general accomplishment
of work on all construction proj
ects can be accomplished at an
early date, the economy of Alaska
will have been dealt a blow from
which it will take years to re
cover. The very welfare of the
state is involved.”
Gov. Egan said he was pleased
that construction men are now on
their way to critical Alaska de
fense jobs, but added that the
action “does not change the over
all seriousness of the construction
picture in Alaska.
“I shall be willing to meet with
labor and management represen
tatives at any place or any time,
to help end this walkout,” he said.
Oceanographer Reveals
Pacific Has Been
Warmer for 2 Years
SEATTLE, — After a two
year wanning trend, ocean waters
off the Pacific Northwest have
started to cool off, a University
of Washington oceanographer said
today.
Dr. Richard H. Fleming said
surface water temperatures are
nearly back to normal. They were
as much as seven degrees warmer
than usual last summer.
Fleming said that paradoxically,
waters off California are heating
up. He gave this as the explana
tion for the recent appearance of
voracious sharks along California
beaches.
Barracuda and other warm
water fish which were caught in
Puget Sound and off the north
west coast last summer have
failed to show up this year.
Captain George Dies
George Pleasant, better known
as Captain George, a long-time
resident of Elim, passed away
last week from a lingering illness.

President Forsees
No Tax Cut
By MARVIN L. ARROWSMITH
WASHINGTON, UP) —President
Eisenhower sees no real hope
for a tax cut during his remain
ing 18 months in office, it was
reported today on high author
ity.
But is is also known that the
President at this time is plan
ing no call for a tax increase.
Eisenhower’s views on this and
other matters domestic and pol
itical can be reported on excel
lent authority:
Steel — Eisenhower does not
rule out the possibility of invok
ing the Taft-Hartley Law in an
effort to end the steel strike. But
he is extremely reluctant, in part
because he feels it would do little
ultimate good.
Politics—He intends to say no
thing to influence the Republican
presidential nomination unless he
sees a prospect that the choice
might otherwise go to a candi
date he feels does not embrace
what Eisenhower calls his mid
dle-of-the road philosophy. New
York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller,
along with Vice President Nixon,
is on the Eisenhower list of 10
possibilities he could support.
With respect to the steel strike,
Eisnhower is known to feel an
80-day strike-halting injunction
under the Taft-Hartley Act would
serve little purpose because both
sides are dug in for a struggle.
He sees no need now for cooling
off.
If the strike, now a week old,
should eventually threaten de
fense production, Eisenhower
might order allocation of steel for
vital programs under his Kor
ean war powers, still in effect.
The President is making no
guess as to how long the strike
may last. And he isn’t tipping
his hand as to how long the gov
ernment will rely solely on medi
ation.
Eisenhower is known to feel
that the steel companies acted
stupidly—with expletives—at the
end of the 1956 steel strike. He
takes the position that the com
panies increased steel prices more
than the $7 a ton at that time
without first calculating the exact
cost of the wage hike they nego
tiated.
But the President believes that
in the current dispute the com
panies are highly aware of the
■ danger of inflation and are tak
ing it into account in negotia
tions.

Cut operating costs
on heavy equipment
Extra-performance fuels and lubricants make a big
difference in operating and repair expenses. That's
why most Alaska contractors use Standard Oil
products.
Chevron Diesel Fuel, for example, gives you engine
protection you can't get with any other diesel fuel.
Its Detergent-Action ends deposits in fuel injectors
and guards your entire fuel system against rust.
In lubricants, too. Standard products give far more
than "average" performance. RPM DELO Oils
stretch the time between overhauls by thousands
of hours . . . keep engines clean, rings free. RPM
Automotive Grease lets you meet all grease
requirements with one lubricant: wheel bearypgs,
chassis fittings, water pumps, universal joints, track >—
rollers.
Like more information? Contact your nearest
Standard Oil Representative and find out how these
products can lower your costs.
