Dulles Asked Seek Treaty
To Preserve Alaskan
Fisheries from Decimation
WASHINGTON, UP) — The Sen
ate called on Secretary of State
Dulles yesterday to seek negotia
tions immediately in an effort to
preserve Alaskan salmon from
what a resolution called “con
tinued decimation by Japanese
fishing fleets.”
The resolution, which does not
require further legislative action,
urges immediate negotiations to
get Japanese compliance with
what the measure terms “the
spirit of conservation” which un
derlay a 1952 treaty with the
United States and Canada.
Sen. Magnuson told the Senate
that from 1947 to 1957 the red
salmon fisheries yield of the Al
askan area fell from $44 million
to $24 million.
The resolution says that with
the treaty in full effect Japan
initiated high-seas fishing on a
substantial scale and that unless
emergency action is taken the
United States “is faced with
closing fisheries entirely to our
fishermen” or allowing them to
fish “seven days a week to meet
Japanese competition.”

"Cat” Diesel Tractors equipped with cable or hydraulically
controlled bulldozers. With "Cat”-built ’dozers, the tractor,
bulldozer and control are matched to the capacity and strength
of one another. They’re designed to move bigger, active rolling
loads faster, keep jobs on schedule and hold production costs
down. Either straight or angling blades are available. Adjust
ments are easy to make.

without protection, except under extreme cold or wet-weather
conditions. Both are compact, require minimum maintenance,
and operate on low-cost diesel fuel. There are many generator
