Governor Asks Aid Of Unions SEATTLE, April 4 (P) With ships being tied up in Alaska ports, and some sailing unload ed, Alaska's Governor Green ing has asked the striking unions for help. The . governor yesterday ap pealed to the northwest repre sentative of the International Longshoremen's and Warehouse men's union (CIO) for postpone ment of the longshoremen's strike. He was advised that the action of the Pacific coast lo cals had "no bearing" on the Alaska situation. Gruening was told the strike was "job action" to . enforce payment of legal wage's under government orders and contract agreement. Meanwhile, at Juneau, a longshoremen's strike has de layed the unloading of three vessels, and one, the North Sea, sailed for Sitka with 550 tons of Juneau-bound freight, most ly perishables, still aboard. The ship is due back Friday on its southbound trip and will unload if the strike is settled. The longshoremen have de manded $1.72H per hour, with $2.59 hourly for overtime work.

Group Approves Housing Measure WASHINGTON, April 4 UP) Long range housing legislation, aimed at a goal of 12,500,000 new homes in the next 10 years, was approved unanimously to day by the senate banking com mittee. It provides easier government loans and credits designed to encourage construction by pri vate industry and calls for con tinued direct government aid for low rent housing. The long range plan is inde pendent of the emergency leg islation to provide homes for veterans. Chairman Wagner (D-N.Y.) announced the committee, by a 7 to 4 vote, modified a provi sion demanded by the AFL and the CIO. This was a clause requiring that "the wages or fees prevail ing in the locality" must be paid on any construction done with the aid of government loans. It was made inapplicable to individual FHA-financed homes, but was left insofar as public and large scale housing con struction is concerned. 300 Bid Adieu To Noah Beery GLENDALE, Calif., April 4 (j)01d friends of stage and screen attended final rites to day for Noah Beery, 64, veteran actor, who died Monday.
