Half of Alaska crude to travel by tanker via Panama Canal
For two years about half of Alaska’s Prudhoe Bay oil will move by tanker on a 10 000 mile voyage to the Gulf Coast, with some shipments to New Jersey. West Coast refineries lack capacity and strict environmental rules delay a long planned overland pipeline from Long Beach to Texas, forcing costly shipments and extended transit times. Tankers will depart Valdez beginning in August, with Sohio Exxon and ARCO distributing shares of the crude.

In a separate note, the National Cancer Institute will test Laetrile on cancer patients despite not supporting its effectiveness. Dr. Guy R.
