But despite such a sharp in- crease in well prices, the hikes at the consumer level would take up to 10 years to be felt and the impact would not be nearly so severe. THIS IS because on the aver- age only about 17 per cent of the consumer gas bill repre- sents the cost of gas at the well. The remainder is for distribu- tion. And those homes and fac- tories now receiving natural gas at a low price would continue at that price until current con- tracts-averaging about 10 years -expire.

Liberty 663-8611 'U' residents, interns may picket hospitals By JO MARCOTTY Interns and residents of the University Medical Center may begin picketing local hospitals if their three-month-long contract dispute is not solved within approximately two weeks.l However, members of the interns' and residents' union - the House Officers Association (HOA) - have fresh hopes for gaining a settlement soon. ERIC HODEEN of the HOA said last week's bargaining ses- sion was one of the most productive the parties have held. "It was a good meeting," he said. "We were pleased with thet progress. We got down to discussing individual items, and that's the first time we've been able to do that." While union members see possibilities for a quick settlement, they expect some sort of job action if the talks reach an impasse.1 "IT DEPENDS entirely on which way the negotiations go,"' Hodeen said. "If things keep moving, it won't come about." a The union officers are forbidden by state law to direct their members to picket or stage any work slowdown. Any job action "would have to be a spontaneous movement" by the rank-and- file members, Hodeen said. "I can't tell anyone else to go out there," he added. Hodeen explained that a job action deadline must be deter- mined by a vote of the union membership.
