United Press International
BATON ROUGE — Weather
forecasters say a cloud of volca
nic ash seen off the coast of
Louisiana Wednesday poses no
health hazard, but could inter
rupt air traffic.
Officials said the cloud,
travelling north from a Mexican
eruption, could reduce viabil
ity, but poses no threat to prop
erty, livestock or persons with
lung ailments.
Gus Craino of the Louisiana
Of fice of Emergency Prepared
ness said no extraordinary pre
cautions were needed to deal
with the dust.
“It’s akin to a foggy day,”
Craino said.“At the moment we
are watching it. All we know is
it’s drifting towards the gulf
states. It was seen in Cameron
Parish, a haze on the horizon.”
A National Weather Service
forecaster, Burnett Padget, said
the cloud extended from Mex
ico as far north as Corpus
Christi.
‘,‘1 think it would be hazardous
to air traffic if it came up across
eastern Texas or extreme south
ern Louisiana,” he said. “Visibil
ity would be one part of it, but
the abrasive action of it would
damage planes.”
He said the cloud could
bother people with lung prob
lems, but “no more than what
you get from this dust that com
es in from Texas."

five years probation and
S l (),()()() fines for trving to bribe
a city councilman. Although he
called them corrupters, the
judge declined to set a more
strict sentence to spare the mens’
families.
Houston Port Commissioner
John Garrett. 59, and L.G.
Moore, 47, of Deer Park, region
al director of the Operating En
gineers Union, were sentenced
Wednesday on their Eeb. 25
convictions in the EBEs Brilab
investigation.
They were convicted of using
the telephone in plotting to
bribe a city councilman to influ
ence the award of a municipal
employees’ health insurance
contract.
A jury was unable to reach a
verdict on other charges of tele
phone racketeering and con
spiracy. Those charges are still
pending.
“The crime you stand con
victed of is very serious,” said
U.S. District Judge Norman
Black, who also ordered 350
hours of public service. “Vint are
corrupters. You bribed an
elected official of this city.
“I came very close to going the
other way in this case. 1 am not
using the (imprisonment) op
tion in this case primarily lie-
cause I think it would punish
your families far more than it
would punish you.”
Prosecutor Ron Woods, who
had demanded stiff prison time,
refused comment on the sent-
