HUB ELECTRICIANS POWER SYSTEM SAFE ANCHORAGE, Alaska, May 17— (P—Negotiations were to resume to- day toward settling the strike called by about 60 construction project workers of the International Broth- erhood of Electrical Workers (AFL). The issues are the same as those threatening Fairbanks with a power tieup, a union shop being the main demand. However, the city’s contract with the union has not expired, so the local power system is not affected, as it is at Fairbanks. Lou Taylor, business agent of Local 1547, Anchorage, said the union did not plan any picket lines i unless contractors start hiring non- union electricians. “If we establish a picket line I don’t believe any union man would cross it,” he said. “We don’t want to halt building; we want a con- tract. No contract, no work.” Major construction projects here and at Fort Richardson are affected. John Majures, business manager of the Puget Sound Chapter, National Electrical Contractors Association, arrived yesterday to take part in ne- gotiation talks.
