Navy Disclaims Reports
Of Russian Plane Escort
For Bering Sea Fishermen
WASHINGTON, l* — The Navy
said Saturday it knows nothing of
Russian plane surveillance over a
Soviet fishing fleet near the Prib
ilof Islands off the Aleutian chain.
This comment by the Navy,
made in answer to questions by
newsmen, seemed to be at variance
with a statement by Sen. Warren
G. Magnuson (D-Wash).
The senator said Friday that
Russian planes are keeping sur
veillance over the fishing boats
in the Pribilof area.
That information, Magnuson
said, came from Adm. Arleigh
Burke, chief of Naval operations.
He quoted Burke as saying also
that the Soviet fishing fleet num
bers about 50 fishing craft and 14
support vessels.
