Texaco to can workers
Coast jobs to be lost
United Press International
PORT ARTHUR — Texaco USA
announced Thursday it will lay off
1,400 workers and slash production
at its 82-year-old refinery.
Additionally, Du Pont will end
methanol production at its nearby
Beaumont plant with the loss of 140
jobs.
Unemployment in the Texas
coastal area has been running at
above 10 percent for several months.
Lee T. Townsend, the Port Ar
thur area manager for Texaco, said
the layoffs will begin Nov. 6 and in
volve both union and non-union em
ployees. He said a 60-day notice was
served to Oil, Chemical and Atomic
Worker Union locals early Thurs
day.
The refinery currently employs
about 3,000 workers, although Tex
aco has an additional 1,600 employ
ees in Jefferson County. Union jobs
to be cut include those of operating,
maintenance and clerical employees,
Townsend said.
The layoffs are expected to be
completed by latejanuary.
Company officials said discussions
with unions representing the af
fected workers would begin immedi
ately.
Paul Weeditz, public affairs coor
dinator, said the refinery’s rated op
erating capacity will be cut from
400,000 barrels of crude oil per day
to about 200,000 barrels. However,
he said over the past two and a half
years the plant has taken in an aver
age of only 240,000 barrels per day.
Principle operations of the plant
will be the manufacture of lubricat
ing base oil stocks, premium gaso
line, petrochemical feed stocks and
byproducts associated with those
processes.
Townsend said the reduction is
necessary because petroleum prod
ucts demand has declined substan
tially from peak levels of a few years
ago and current refinery runs in the
United States are as much as 25 per
cent below capacity.
In addition, gasoline imports for
the first six months of 1984 were up
40 percent over the same period in
1983, while demand for gasoline in
the United States was up only 1.8
percent, Weeditz said.
“Our objective is to make the Port
Arthur refinery a more efficient op
eration which can compete success
fully now and in the future,” Towns
end said.
Du Pont officials said methanol
production will end Jan. 1 as part of
the company’s plan to discontinue
methanol sales. The plant currently
employs 1,350 workers, but only 140
are employed in methanol produc
tion. The other employees are in
volved in the production of two syn
thetic rubbers and three chemical
intermediates.
Du Pont plant manager David J.
Willette said normal attrition, trans
fers and reassignments will reduce
the number of employees who might
eventually be laid off.
“To further minimize the number
of people who might be laid off, the
plant is planning to offer a voluntary
termination incentive,” Willette said.
Henry Lucas provides law officers
tour of California murder sites
United Press International
LOS ANGELES — At least 15
gruesome California murders have
been solved by an exhaustive es
corted tour of the state that con
demned serial killer Henry Lee Lu
cas gave law officers, Attorney
General John Van de Kamp said
Thursday.
Lucas, 48, who has been sen
tenced to die in Texas, has claimed
to have committed more than 360
murders nationwide during an
eight-year spree. Authorities have
linked him with 175 killings, includ
ing the 15 confirmed during his trip
to California.
“Lucas is considered to be one of
the most brutal mass murderers in
this nation’s history,” Van de Kamp
said.
Lucas led officers to dozens of
sites across the state during a 10-day
trek last August, telling how and
where 14 female victims and one
male were murdered.
His youngest victims in California
were 4 and 5-year-old girls abducted
from their homes, beaten, strangled
and buried in a dry river bed in San
Luis Obispo County. One was also
raped.
Van de Kamp told reporters that
Lucas claimed he and a companion,
Ottis Toole, committed the Califor
nia the string of killings from 1975-
83, following Lucas’ release from a
Michigan prison. Toole is now in
prison in Florida for murder, arson
and other crimes.
The California slayings took place
throughout the state, ranging from
Imperial County near the Mexican
border to Humboldt County near
the Oregon border. Others occurred
in Orange, Riverside and San Ber
nardino counties in Southern Cali
fornia, and Kern, San Luis Obispo
and Yolo counties in Central and
Northern California.
In a videotape shown to reporters,
Lucas said he used various methods
to kill people so police would not
find a pattern in the murders.
“I’ve committed shootings, stab-
bings, beatings and crucifixions of
humans,” Lucas said in an interview
with ABC earlier this year.
The tour culminated effort by the
Attorney General’s Office to resolve
67 possible crimes believed linked to
Lucas, primarily by his own
statements, Van de Kamp said.
“Lucas, it seems, decided to talk
because he claims to have had a ‘reli
gious experience’ while incarcerated
in Texas, and he wanted to let fami
lies know what had happened to
their loved ones,” the attorney gen
eral said.
Van de Kamp said he wants to ar
range another trip for Lucas to in
vestigate more possible murder sites.
Lucas, sentenced to death earlier
this year in Texas for the murder of
an unidentified hitchhiker in 1979,
also has been convicted of three
other murders, including the stab
bing death of Frieda “Becky” Powell,
his 15-year-old companion.
Lucas was first imprisoned at age
18 in Virginia for burglary. Follow
ing his release in 1959, Lucas
stabbed and killed his mother in
Michigan. He served 10 years for
that murder, six in a state mental
hospital.
After being paroled in 1970, Lu
cas returned to prison for five years
for kidnapping and was released in
1975.
