WOOD BUTCHERS LUST ASK TOP WAGE
 NOT UNpATRI0TIC'

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, June 27- R-An official of the striking AFL Carpenters Union, singled out Tor criticism by Secretary of Defense Johnson, asserted yesterday there IS nothing unpatriotic about his work CTS action.
 Johnson said he was much dis turbed" by the walkout which has shut down virtually all military and private construction projects in Fairbanks and Anchorage.
 Speaking in Norfolk, Va, yester- day he said that unless something happens in the next few days 1t (the strikeJ must become matter for national action. If it contin- ues much longer it could border on the unpatriotic.
 Business agent for the Alaska union, Peter Kappelle, said the car penters realize the strike is of vital national importance in de- laying of military construction. But
 
 he added:
 Wage demands were presented in an attempt to rebalance wages based on national standards and the Alaskan cost of living.'
 The union is demanding 30- cent hourly pay increase, which would bring their hourly wage to S3. Members voted Friday to re- feet an offer of $282 an hour made by the Associated General Con- tractors.
 Kappelle said that the carpenters have steadfastly stood behind our government in all previous na- tional emergencies and are still good patriotic citizens" They call upon the general con- , tractors to assist that patriotism by insuring the security of this group with justice" he said. He added that the carpenters are ready to reopen negotiations ito that end"
 ! The carpenters here walked out i June l. They were followed. in the strike action by Fairbanks car penters June IA.
