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.

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

Clark said there was not a

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.”
