The union's new position was made public on the eve of the strike's 97th day. The offer called for 16 cents an hour when the strikers return to work and an additional seven cents an hour next February 1 for an agreement that would run to January 31, 1960.

The union also asked for $500,000 or about two cents per worker for additional raises for sugar employes in higher grades. OFFER MADE IN LETTER The new offer was made in a letter delivered last night to the industry's negotiating committee. The letter followed a rejection of the industry's 15-cent proposal through a rank and file referendum. It informed the employers that the union's original 25-cent across-the-board demand for a one-year contract has been withdrawn and that the new wage proposal is being made in its stead. The union asked for resumption of collective bargaining today.

The Kaiser and KULA radio stations are not involved in the deal.

"We propose to offer televiewers the American Broadcasting Company programs now carried on Channel 4, and the best of KULA's other programming," Kaiser said.

Applause as well as hisses greeted Nixon, who had included a visit to the university as part of his eight-nation tour of South America. Nixon ignored previous warnings that his appearance before the Communist-instigated students might cause a violent anti-American demonstration.

Nearby students shouted at him: "Go home! Go home!" "Sure, I'll go home," Nixon said, "but don't you want to hear the truth first?"
