Airline President
Wins Custody of
Three Children
SEATTLE, Wl—Superior Judge
Lloyd Shorett ruled Wednesday
that Arthur G. Woodley, president
of Pacific Northern Airlines, is to
get custody of his three children,
John, 11; George, 9; Gordon, 6.
The decision ended a bitter bat
tle between Woodley and his wife,
Mrs. Letha Greene, who fought
to get custody of the children.
Judge Shorett said that testi
mony offered his court showed
that the step-father, John Greene,
is an “inadequate person” to have
around the house.
“I do not find you an untit
mother,” he added.
The judge based his decision
on the testimony given him by
the two older boys in a closed
door session. He said he was
shocked to hear the boys talk
about how Greene used profanity
in front of the boys and thought
they were adversely affected.
He said Mrs. Greene will be
able to have the children visit
her for six weeks during the sum
mer but warned Greene’s conduct
should improve or he would re
voke the order.
Alaska Salmon Pack
Up From Last Year
Due to Red Salmon Run
SEATTLE, tfV-The pack of Al
aska salmon, as of la^t Saturday,
was 1,435,567 cases. At the same
time last year the pack was 1,
176,061 cases.
The increase was brought about
almost entirely by a late-arriving
but strong run of red salmon in
Bristol Bay.
The Bristol Bay fishing season
closed Wednesday.
The pack of red salmon so far
is up 55 percent from the same
time last year. The pack of pink
salmon was down 21 percent from
the 1955 level. Other varieties
this year are about equal to the
1955 pack.

Transferred to Alaska
For Use as Monument
WASHINGTON, UR—President
Eisenhower signed a bill yester
day authorizing transfer to Alas

use as a monument.
A committee report said the

1867 negotiations of the transfer

Alaska Railroad Revenue
Down $1 Million Due to
Haines-Fairbanks Pipeline
ANCHORAGE, I*—'The Alaska j
Railroad has reported its net in
come topped $2 million during |
tfie fiscal year ended last June 30.
despite a loss in operating reven
ues and increased expenses.
R. N. Whitman, general man
ager, said the railroad’s profit
was $2,077,225 compared to its
net income of $2,617,278 at this
time last year.
A loss in operating revenues of
almost $1 million was attributed
to the diversion of bulk petroleum
products to the Haines-Fairbanks
pipeline.
Wage increases granted last
spring were a factor for the in
crease in operating expenses.
Revenue losses were offset by
the introduction of unit rail box
and trailer - on - flatcar <‘‘pigg.v
back") services, which brought in
new business.

25 cents of every dollar Standard takes In
goes to meet your future oil needs
Petroleum progress means... I
each of us will need |S»i
1007 gallons of oil yearly
Wv 1965
Our search for oil has led to drilling offshore wells like this one (in ’
the Gulf of Mexico) costing nearly 4 times more than land wells.
BUILDING “ISLANDS” IN THE SEA from which
to probe the ocean floor is one good example of how we
must search farther afield to find the oil America uses
in such quantity. And as new sources of oil become
harder to find, locating it and bringing petroleum prod
ucts to you grows more costly.
Last year, a quarter of every dollar Standard took in
was plowed back into oil exploration, development of
producing fields, research and construction of facilities. 1956 . 1965
All told, during 1955 we invested $347 million to help par capita per capita
meet your growing oil needs. L_
