In Tallahassee the Pensacola Democrat Reubin O Donavan Askew wields growing influence after a year as governor.

PMA relents to Pentagon over West Coast military cargo
The Pacific Maritime Association reverses its ban on handling military cargo at West Coast ports struck by 13,000 longshoremen after the Pentagon deems the move against national defense. Negotiations with the International Longshoremen's Union resume by January 31, with talks broken off earlier in the week. Flynn cites wage loss during the walkout and says the change aims to balance earnings during defense cargo movements.
