Bartlett Suggests U.S. Help Japan
Find Alternate For Salmon Food
WASHINGTON, (fft—Del. Bart
lett today suggested the United
States join with Japan to find
some way of removing that coun
try’s reliance upon North Pacific
salmon stocks.
In a speech for delivery in the
House, he said it is imperative
some action be taken to ease Jap
anese fishing pressures which
threaten Alaska's Bristol Bay
salmon fishery with extinction.
But, he said, “If something is
taken away, there must be a re
placement.”
To fill the void, Bartlett sug
gested the United States offer
scientific assistance, surplus pro
duce or capital as required “to
assist Japan in attaining a way
reaping what others have sown.”

of life that does not depend upon
The Alaskan delegate said he
believed readjustment is “long
overdue” in the provisional North
Pacific line east of which Japan
has agreed not to fish.
He also accused Japan of a
“shortsighted unwillingness” to
promote fisheries conservation in
falling to agree to an adjustment
in the line, and cited statements
by scientists “that another sea
son’s activity by the Japanese in
harvesting the American-spawn
i ed sockeye may cause extinction
of the resource.”
Should Japan agree to suspend
its harvest of salmon of Alaskan
origin, Bartlett said it would find
the United States “cooperative,
helpful and generous in joint ef
forts to realize the legitimate
economic ambitions of Japan.”
“But Japan might well con
sider,” he added, “the attitude of
the American people after Japa
nese fishing on the high seas has
totally depleted the salmon re
source, leaving nothing but a
barren curse upon the peoples of
both countries.”
Bartlett rejected suggestions
the United States abrogate the
treaty under which the provision
al line was established. Such a
I step he said, “would give us only
the privilege of ending the con
servation practices which we
pledged by treaty to continue.
That, I think, would be a policy
of despair.”

issuing checks here without funds

iNine Die In Crash
Of Braniff DC-7
l
jNear Miami
MIAMI, Fla., lift — A Braniff
Airlines plane, bound for Pan
ama, crashed moments after take
off early Tuesday with an explo
sion seen for miles. Nine persons
were killed and 15 survived,
many of them injured badly.
The four - engine' DC-7C had
been airborne less than a minute
before watchers on the ground
saw fire spurt from an engine.
A night watchman on duty at
a city dump near the swampy
scene of the crash1 saw the plane
do down “like a rock.” It fell 4V£
miles north of Miami Internation
al Airport.
The dead, dying and injured
lay in the wreckage or in ankle
deep mud and water. Rescuers
had to push their way through
dense brush which kept firetrucks
and ambulances away from the
scene.
Flames still were roaring into
the sky six hours after the crash.
R. H. Sands, the dump watch
man who summoned help but was
prevented by the sawgrass and
underbrush from forcing his way
to the scene himself, said it was
about 20 minutes before rescue
crews arrived.
“Those were the longest 20
minutes I ever spent,” he said.
“I could hear the passengers yell
ing for help and there was no
thing I could do.”
