Russia Sends
Expert to Hear
Fishing Discussed
SEATTLE, UPl — Executive Di
rector Roy J. Jackson of the In
ternational Pacific Fisheries Com
mission said Friday Russia plans
to send an official observer to the
commission’s annual meeting,
opening here Monday.
Jackson s'aid the Russian ob
server would be Michail Nikitch
Mironov, chief inspector of the
Russian Federation of Conserva
tion and Production of Fish.
The commission, composed of
representatives of Canada, Japan
and the United States, will hear
a number of proposals concern
ing Ijorth Pacific salmon stocks,
including a proposal that Russia
be named a party to the commis
sion treaty.
Milton E. Brooding, chairman of
the U. S. section of the commis
sion, said the United States “is
looking forward tq some under
standing with the Japanese rela
tive to conserving the fish in the
area of heavy intermingling of
salmon of Asiatic and North
American origin.”
The United States has charged
that unrestricted fishing by the
Japanese on the high seas has
depleted stocks of salmon which
spawn in North American streams.

Mexico Memorial Day
MANZANIDLO, Mexico, OP — j
There were no flowers for the I
dead here on this All Souls’ Day, j
none of the family picnics that
usually follow the annual visits
to graves of loved ones on this
religious festival.
Instead, thousands of dazed <
and bewildered men, women and '■
children — homeless and hungry i
— shuffled aimlessly among ruins I
that once had been their homes,
or took to the roads in search of
food and shelter. »
They were the survivors of the
hurricane, floods and landslides
which ravaged Mexico’s Pacific
states of Jalisco and Colima last
Tuesday. An estimated 1,500 per
sons died.
Relief supplies of food, medi
cine, clothing and some building
materials are coming into the
stricken area by air, road and
sea, in small lots. Rail lines which
can handle larger shipments, are
I still closed.
The government has ordered a
vast reconstruction program and
has announced it will give credits
i for the people to start new lives.

Walter Reed Exam
Shows Presidential
•
Health Is Good
WASHINGTON, UP) — President
Eisenhower’s doctors Saturday
confirmed he has mild chronic
bronchitis but said that other
wise he “continues to maintain an
excellent state of health.”
The physicians issued a medi
cal bullet shortly after Eisen
hower checked out of Walter
Reed Army Hospital where he
underwent his annual physical
checkup.
The 69-year-old President told
reporters in Augusta, Ga., last
week that he had developed
chronic bronchitis during the last
three years.
Saturday’s medical bulletin said
regarding Eisenhower’s head-to
toe examination at Walter Reed:
“The results of these all inclu
sive studies show that the Pres
ident continues to maintain an
excellent state of health, with the
exception of a persistent mild
tracheo-bronchitis.”
Texan in Moscow
Says He’s ‘Through
With America’
MOSCOW, Uft — A 20-year-old
Te^an strode into the American
Embassy Saturday, slapped down
his passport on the consul’ desk
and said “I have made up my
mind. I’m through.”
He was Lee Tarvey Oswald, a
former Marine of Fort Worth, who
said he had applied for Soviet
citizenship.
The Embassy urged him not to
sign papers renouncing his Amer
ican citizenship until he was sure
the Soviet Union would accept
him.
He is the third American dur
ing the past three months to
apply for Soviet citizenship while
visiting Russia.
Nicholas Petrulli of Valley
Stream, .N. Y., changed his mind
after filing the renunciation form
and this was what the Embassy
had in mind when urging Oswald
to take the final step.
Robert Webster of Cleveland,
Ohio, completed the formalities
10 days ago, and has disappeared
into the anonymous mass of the
Soviet population.
