Our First Obligation Is to Alaska Declares Pres
 ident of 1. L. A.
PROPOSES STRIKERS
 SIGN INDEPENDENTLY
San Francisco Union Lead- CTS Said Not to Be Tn
 Favor of Plan

The first gleam of light in the Seattle-Alaska shipping tieup ap- peared today with a suggestion from J. H. Ryan, President of the In- ternational Longshoremen's Union. that the unions negotiate with in- dividual operators and sign up with those willing to accept the strik- CTS terms.
 This was revealed in an Associat- ed Press dispatch from Seattle to The Empire Another Associated Press dispatch from San Francisco, however, said union spokesmen did not believe the plan would go through.
 Alaska Biggest Obligation
 MT Ryan returned to Seattle to- day from San Francisco and sug- gested the new plan which, it was said may result in partial resump- tion of shipping out of Seattle and other ports. He recommended that the Strikers Executive Board be given power to sign up independ- ently with operators who agree to recognize the longshomemens union and hire help from union halls. This was to have been considered today by the Seattle unions.
 MT. Ryan said: Our biggest obligation is to the Alaska trade. I think there should be a separ- ate agreement between the Alaska operators and the men so that AL aska shipping can be released im- mediately."
 Ketchikan is to get some relief from the Canadian Pacific. The liner Princess Adelaide sailed from Vancouver Wednesday for that port.
 Mediators Are Pessimistic
 With the strike deadlocked every where, following the rejection of the compromise offer of the opera tors, Presidents Mediation Board turned toward San Francisco to renew negotiations. They were ad- mittedly discouraged.
 One of the Boards members, who refused to allow his name to be used, was frankly skeptical of immediate settlement of the strike. He declared everyone will admit that sooner or later this strike will be settled But it looks right now as if it will be settled by bullets, guns and gas"
 Another member of the same Board asked: Why must we re- sort to guerilla warfare? Forced peace will not he lasting peace" He placed the blame for the dead- lock on both sides.
 May Defeat Ryan Plan
 The newest plan of President Ryan for individual settlement did not seem to meet with favor in San Francisco union quarters. Dis- trict Coast headquarters there said the Seattle union revealed it had received offers from several em- ployers to negotiate separate set- dement's which they had referred to Coast district officials.
 Neither side would tell what com- panies have made the offers. Spakesmen for the strikers in San Francisco forecast that the plan
 auld not be approved by the lo- ,1ls.

RELIEF FOR
REFINERES
TO Be ASKED

Relief for Montana refEners
whose winter curgnilment under
code orders may limit their buaI.
ness next summer. is being asked
by the regional organisation OF
Region No. OF the petroleum
code, according to w. H. Fer
guson, OF Denver, chairman, who
spoke before members Of the
petroleum industry in Great Falls
Wednesday.
Mr.. Ferguson declared that re-
finers in the Rocky Mountain
region must store crude and re-
fined products in the winter
months TO care for the rush OF
business during the summer
season when refiners sell most OF
their products. This is not
taken into consideration by the
planning and coordination COM
mittee at Washington when It
includes Montana In the restric-
tions intended for the Midcon-
tinent, Texas and California
where a mild climate gives all
season consumption.
ut is difficult for the COM
mittee in Washington to realize
that we ia the Rocky Mountain /
region have the greatest varia- /
ton in temperatures in the
United States" he said, with /
business high in the summer and
ow in the winter. In addi-
lion to seasonal conditions,
tourist travel accentuates the de-
nand for refined products IN
The sumer months. AS q result.
Rocky Mountain refiners must
pile up 9 supply OF crude to run
n the summer months"
Mr.. Ferguson did not state
what action. II any. had been
aiken in this regard. He comz
nented that Montana should
nave a higher allowable for crude
production.
