Russians Say Japanese
Fishing Threatens
Siberian Salmon Runs
MOSCOW, UPi—The number of
humpbacked and Siberian salmon
entering the rivers of the west
coast of Kamchatka Peninsula
has considerably decreased over
the past years, the Soviet news
agency Tass said today.
Tass said this was established
- by a recent aerial survey of
spawning grounds in the rivers
and lakes of the peninsula.
“Kamchatka scientists believe
the decrease in the number of
salmon is the result of intensive
fishing carried out by the Japa
nese fishermen on the high seas,”
the news agency said.
Pavel Dvinin, staff member of
the Pacific Scientific Research
Institute of Sea Fisheries and
Oceanography, described the con
cern of the Soviet fishermen for
future reserves of Far Eastern
salmon.
Dvinin said in 1958, for exam
ple, the number of fish carrying
broken off Japanese fish hooks
accounted for some 10 per cent
of every single catch.

Pasternak Attends
N.Y. Philharmonic
Concert In Moscow
By A. I. GOLDBERG
MOSCOW, (#! — Controversial
j poet, Russian, and novelist Boris
Pasternak made a public appear
| ance Friday night, first since he
l was shunned by fellow Soviet
1 authors for writing his novel
“Doctor Zhivago.”
He attended a concert of the
New York Philharmonic Orches
tra, cheered its musicians, cried
over the music and then emotion
ally embraced and kissed conduc- j
tor Leonard Bernstein.
Pasternak, whose “Doctor Zhi-1
vago” won him the 1958 Nobel j
Prize for literature and caused
him to be denounced as a “pig”
by fellow Soviet writers, showed j
unannounced.
The 69-year-old author had
lived in seclusion outside Moscow
many months after being awarded
the prize he first accepted and
then rejected. His novel has been
banned in the Soviet Union. It
deals with the misery of a group j
of Russians, in the last years of i
the Czars and the first years of |
the Communist revolution.
Pasternak appeared in good
health and told reporters he is
living well and working at capa
city. He said he is writing a prose
play about the emancipation of
serfs in the mid-19th Century.
“But it will be no more happy
nor pleasing for me than my
novel,” Pasternak said.
He said he had heard rumors
of plans to publish “Doctor Zhi
vago” in the Soviet Union “a
little while ago, but I do not be
lieve it.”

Members of Indian Parliament
Accuse Nehru of Appeasement
NEW DELHI, India, UFi—Oppo
sition members of Parliament ac
cused Prime Minister Nehru Sat
urday of appeasement and de
manded he use force to dislodge
Chinese Communist troops from
Indian territory.
Nehru countered with a charge
that the opposition was resorting
to brave gestures and rejected out
chev’s trip.
The angry exchanges took place
as Soviet Premier Khrushchev
was attempting to-get Red China
and India to settle their border
dispute.
Nehru also turned down pro
posals that New Delhi withdraw
earlier offers to mediate minor
troubles along the Indian-Tibetan
frontier. He declared he would
give up sections of the MacMahon
Line which divides northeast In
dia from Tibet “If I find it
wrongly there.”
He termed the MacMahon Line
vague in some places and said it
was only right that negotiation
should be offered in such places.
Nevertheless, he made it clear he
is not willing to surrender to Red
China’s claim to large sections of
land along India’s border with
Tibet.
Nehru said it was not correct
that there had been any large
scale incursions into Indian terri
tory by Chinese Communist
troops. He said Chinese units
were now south of the MacMahon
Line at only one or two ■ isolated
points. It is equally incorrect, he
said, to say Red Chinese armies
were massed along the Indian
frontier.
“The real danger is not the
army but the words being said in
Peipng,” he declared.
A pro-Communist Indian week
ly, the Bombay Blitz, suggested
Khrushchev might offer to medi
ate the dispute following his 12
day visit to the United States.
There was another report"that
Indian Communists have asked
Khrushchev to arrange a quick
settlement. Since the border
troubles began, India’s Commun
ist party has slid in public opin
ion.
