Secty,-Gen. Dag Says U.N.
Interested in Berlin Crisis
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. <*—
Secretary-General Dag Hammar
skjold declared yesterday the
United Nations is an interested
party in the Berlin problem and
has a right to make its voice
heard if the situation becomes a
threat to peace.
Hamrnarskjold said , however,
that at the present time the world
organizations, with its large mem
bership, cannot aspire to be a
focal point in efforts to solve the
problem. He indicated that the
first step in solving problems such
as this must be big power nego
tiations.
The Secretary-General advanced
these views in the introduction
to his annual report to the U. N.
General Assembly. He talked
briefly on the Berlin question dur
ing a discussion of how to balance
the weight of the big powers, and
their security interests, against
the rights of the world com
munity.

Fisherman Survives
22 Hours of Swimming
CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex. UFI —
Jimmy Seals, a fisherman, floated
and swam for 22 hours in the
Gulf of Mexico without aid of
lifejackets or other help before
rescue, a Coast Guard spokes
man reported.
Two companions swam and
floated for 6 hours and 45 min
utes before they were found by
the Gulf Victor, an Aransas Pass,
Tex., fishing vessel. They are
Ricker and Buddy Halter, brothers
of Sabine Pass, Tex., the Coast
Guard said.
This was the story pieced to
gether by the Coast Guard:
The three took a 12-foot skiff
for a pleasure ride from the Anna
Louise, a fishing vessel anochored
about 35 miles offshore. They be
came separated from the vessel
and the skiff overturned.
The Coast Guard spokesman
said the Halter brothers were
found about 29 miles from shore.
Seals had become separated from
them and the brothers presumed
him drowned.
However, he was found floating,
by crewmen of the Sabine I, an
other fishing vessel.
The Coast Guard spokesman
said a Navy helicopter with a doc
tor aboard was dispatched to the
Sabine I to pick up Seals and fly
him to shore. The Halter brothers
did not need medical attention.
