THE BATTALION Page 7 WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1981 State Clements seeks to resolve tensions along Texas coast United Press International ''i AUSTIN — Gov. Bill Cle- ouldtf meats’ top assistant said Tuesday ate bill the problems between Texas coas- VGoliil tal fishermen and Vietnamese im- ? * n lls|inigrants have been spelled out ulatiortj and a plan has been formulated to a cent#! try and resolve the tensions be- s. tiween the two groups. • Allen Clark met with almost a tore of fishermen for two hours. S! He then told reporters that the fishermen have agreed to allow the governor’s staff to try and re solve the problem. “We have cleared the air on many different issues. We now know that there is some informa tion to pursue. We have reached agreements on five areas that we hope will help lower the tension,” Clark said. He said the governor’s staff would examine the legality of limiting new boats into the coastal area and have the U.S. Coast Guard and Texas Department of Parks and Wildlife enforce the documentation regulations on boats. Clark also said he and other members of the governor’s staff would visit coastal communities and work with elected officials in those areas to try and ease the ten sions. Clark said studies will be made to see if the Vietnamese fishermen are able to seek other job opportu nities in the state away from the coast. He also said a “forum will be pursued” for fishermen to have an input on their problems. Gene Fisher of Seabrook, spokesman for the group that met with Clark, said the fishermen were willing to give Clements time to resolve the controversy. “They’ve given us some good promises. We ll just wait and see what happens. We’re giving the governor a chance to work out the problems,” he said. Fisher said Vietnamese fisher men are operating about 350 boats along the Texas coast, with the ma jority being in Seadriff where a Vietnamese killed another fisher man in a dispute two years ago. The defendant maintained he was only defending himself and was acquitted of the murder charges. Fisher also said he “expected” Clark to make several visits to the coast to study the problems. “I’m going to back him all the Bl cert# □7n]^]DSG3Q jgm jjij!; 'pm mm m m m ml m * SAFEWAY YOU'LL FIND AN EXPRESS CHECKSTAND OPEN FROM 8:00 AM UNTIL MIDNIGHT FOR 9 ITEMS OR 'I Whole Boneless Hams Smok-A-Roma, Fully Cooked, Water Added LESS!

Gas prices may not hit $2 in 1981 United Press International HOUSTON — Executives of Gulf Oil Co. predicted Tuesday the price of gasoline will stay under $2 a gallon this year but prices will climb while the indus try recoups its losses from early 1981 OPEC increases and stabil izes after the decontrol of crude oil. However, Gulf s 12-cents a gal lon increases so far in 1981 have not been related to decontrol, said Robert W. Baldwin, president of Gulf Refining and Marketing Co., but are associated to OPEC in creases in December and January. “The effect of decontrol has yet to be felt,” said Baldwin. “Prices are bound to continue to go up because of cost pressures through out the industry.” Although the Reagan adminis tration said the effect of decontrol of crude oil prices would be an increase of about 3 to 5 cents at the pump, Baldwin said it will be clos er to 20 cents a gallon. Gulf Oil Co. senior vice presi dent Charles H. Bowman said in 1980 the demand for gasoline had decreased by 15 percent, hurting the refineries which are already operating at 80 percent capacity. “If refinery utilization limps along at 80 percent, the small in efficient refineries will die or be subsidized by the government,” he said. But Baldwin said he sees gas stations, which admittedly were overbuilt in the 1960’s, will return to the traditional service stations as a way to secure customers. “To be successful, dealers will have to shift into providing some thing the public wants,” a pattern different that from the last five years, Baldwin said. And, he said, the self-service gas stations probably are a thing of the past. “A two-cents a gallon savings means more when gas is 30 cents a gallon than when it’s $1.50 a gal lon,” Baldwin said. Baldwin said he does not see gas lines again “at least for 60 days,” but said the lines are “totally a fimetion of political action and the relationship between the United States and Saudi Arabia.” In the next few weeks, Baldwin said the Saudis will begin restrict ing production of crude oil to avoid a glut in the market. Saudi Arabia presently produces 10 million bar rels of crude a day, and will prob ably cut back to 8 million barrels a day, which is necessary for that country’s programs. Iran and Iraq, which export ab out 1 million barrels a day, prob ably will not boost their produc tion as long as their war continues. Gramm says spending cut a must United Press International DALLAS — Controlling feder al spending is the greatest peace time challenge in our history, says a congressman and former econo mics instructor at Texas A&M University. Failure to check federal spend ing “would make it impossible to revitalize the economy and worsen inflation and unemploy ment,” Rep. Phil Gramm, D- Texas, told constituents Monday. Gramm said if Congress adopts no new programs, the built-in growth in federal spending — commitments to expand programs and services — is sufficient to rule out a balanced budget in the 1980s and make tax reduction impos sible. “There was a time when we could have turned the economy around by just holding the line but that time has passed,” Gramm said at a meeting at Red Bird Re creation Center. “The consequences of doing no thing, of accepting a ‘business-as- usual’ attitude toward federal spending, will be tragic, catas trophic,” he said. He said Congress must trim dozens of spending categories, terminate some programs, cut others substantially and tighten eligibility for some. “I’m talking about reductions in federal spending which will affect, directly or indirectly, every family in America,” Gramm said. “Gain ing control of federal spending will mean sacrifices by Americans.”
