Plumbers’ Wage
Hike Will Raise
Building Costs
(Continued from Page One)
for over 10 hours and Sundays.
Moore blamed government tac
tics for settling the strike in Seat
tle rather than in Anchorage. Hea
also charged that negotiations
here were stacked against An
chorage resident plumbing con
tractors, with stateside contractors
making costly concessions, and
outnumbering the Anchorage men
at the conference table.
He said many of the Outside
contractors agreeing 4x> the settle
ment were “one-time Charleys”—
in Alaska for one job and with no
future interests.
“The whole thing was contrary
the the customary way of doing
business in Alaska,” Moore said.
“Outsiders should conform with
standard practices there. This
time they didn’t.
“We have to deal with eight be
sic trades—laborers, teamsters,
etc. Very likely they’ll be wanting
to reopen negotiations in view of
this plumber settlement.
“No doubt the Fairbanks settle
ment for $3.50 an hour prompted
this Anchorage demand. In An
chorage we contract with the un
ions at a uniform time. In Fair
banks the contract with firms
were staggered — what we call
‘single-shooting.’ So when one
Fairbanks contractor gave way,
the others had to follow, or they
wouldn’t get any plumbers.
“If this boost spreads to other
building crafts it’s going to mean
a big loss of money to contractors
who already have contracted to do |
certain jobs for certain fixed fees|

Army Puts Korean
News On Blackout
TOKYO, (AV-War news drib
bled out of Korea today in slight
ly heavier volume than in the last
two days when it was cut to a
trickle. The blackout began when
the U. S. Eighth Army removed
all press telephones and teletypes
from advanced headquarters.
It said it had informed corre
spondents:
“It would be advisable to file
all copy at Pusan rather than at
Taegu in view of reduced com
munication facilities incident to
new requirements of military pur
pose and the possibility communi
cations might be interrupted be
tween Taegu and Japan.”
The announcement made no
further explanation.
Correspondents were cut to 60
words each daily for relay to
Tokyo from advanced headquar
ters.
Associated Press correspondent
Leif Erickson at headquarters
said the army had offered a max
imum of 2,000 words teletype
transmission from Aaegu ::on a
pooled basis” and correspondents
could use courier planes.
The 30 correspondents at head
quarters turned down the pool of
fer as unworkable.
