Abstract: R. H. Bing, Amer. Math. Monthly 76 (1969), 119-132, utilizes an example of a $1$-dimensional arcwise connected continuum $X$ in ${E^3}$ with the fixed point property. His question (5) asks if $X \times I$ has the fixed point property. The answer is yes, and the proof given uses standard techniques of point-set topology.
