Alexandria Dairy has said it
is considering a 1a-cent in
crease, but the date has not yet
been set. A spokesman for one

seemed inevitable that costs in
the contract would force them

FStraughan AssaiIs
6. 0. P. Defeatism,
| Hits Dalton Remark
BY The Assoeioted Press

RICHMOND, June 15.-Nilt
Straughan, a candidate for the
Republican nomination for Gov.
ernor, said last night there has
been ga steady and shocking
decline of interest" in the par
tvs affairs in Virginia since last
falls elections.
He placed the blame partly or
State Senator Ted Dalton OF
Radford. who is being doomed
in many G. o. P. circles to run
as the party's gubernatorial can
didate in November.
Mr.. Straughan, 45-year-old
Fredericksburg businessman, said
certain statements by Mr.. Dali
ton "have not helped to keep
alive the enthusiasm our party
knew just last fall-barely six
months ago"
In a radio address, Mr.
Straughan said Republicans who
supported President Eisenhower
last fall were stunned when Mr.
Dalton said no Republican
could win" the governorship this
year.
"We Republicans and inde-
pendents were amazed by his
statement that if there Is a
chance in 1857, he would like
to run. He took this startling
position even before our party
could draft a platform or choose
candidates.
How could we have been so
alive last November and want to
play possum now?"
Mr.. Straughan said if the
State G. o. P. is forced into
Information this year, but at
tempts to reactiviate itself in
1857, I'VE will surely find, just
as the legendary Rip Van Wrinkle
did, that Virginia and the world
have moved on without U.s."
He said there were disturbing
reports" from throughout the
State that old-line Republicans
would remain away from next
Saturdays party convention in
Roanoke because the Byrd nest
is being lined with Republican
feathers - because Republican
jobs are going to Democrats"

Higher Pensions
Demanded by
Transit Union
ST Million Increase
Means Fare Raise,
Company Declares

The Capital Transit Co., in the
middle of a fight to get higher
bus and streetcar fares, is con-
fronted itself by a union demand
for bigger pensions.
The separate pension contract
the companuy has with Division
$50, Amalgamated Association Of
Street, Electric Railway and Mo-
tor Coach Employees Of America,
expires June 80. This plan now
costs the company about $685.
600 a year.
Under the union demand, the
company would have to pay an
other 81 million a year toward
the pension fund.
"The additional cost would
have to be met by another fare
increase above that which we
are seeking now" E. c. Gid
dings, vice president of the
transit company, declared.
Still Negotiating.
Negotiations are still underway
between the company and the
union but little progress has been
made.
Capital Transit currently has a
petition before the District Public
Utilities Commission for a fare
increase. The company is ask
ing that fares be increased to 20
cents cash, five tokens for 95
cents and that the weekly pass
be eliminated.
The hearing is in recess, pend
ing a study of the whole situa-
ton by an outside expert called
in by the commission. The ex-
pert, Edward A. Roberts, of New
York, was expected to begin 60
ing over the transit company's
testimony today.
The hearing will be resumed
when Mr.. Roberts is ready to
report.
The pension plan in effect at
the transit company now calls
for a maximum monthly pension
of $40 above Social Security.
The employe contributes $3.50 a
month and the company $11.20
month for each contributing
employe.
6 Per Cent Proposal.
The union wants minimum
pension of $75 a month toward
which the workers would con-
tribute 6 per cent of their
monthly wages and the COM
pany not less than 6 per cent
OF the monthly payroll.
The union also wants en-
ployes to become eligible to par
ticipate upon being hired rather
than to wait two years as at
present before qualifying. Vol
untary retirement at SIS years Of
age dICer 20 years OF service
also is sought. Now retirement
is at IS years of age only.
The wage contract with the
union is not at issue. Last July
a three-year contract covering
working conditions was signed.
Company negotiators in the
pension discussions are taking
the view that the union should
wait until the work contract is
renegotiated to discuss improve
ments in the pension contract.
The company wants to settle for
the present pension plan which
it regards as one of the best in
the transit industry,
