Salmon Research in
Bering Sea Planned by
Fish and Wildlife Service
WASHINGTON, UP) — The Fish
and Wildlife Service is going to
expand ‘its Alaska salmon re
search into off-shore areas of the
North Pacific, including Bering
Sea.
Secretary of the Interior McKay
said work this summer would in
volve catching and tagging of sal
mon in waters north and south of
the Aleutian Islands in an area
centered at 175 degrees West Lon
gitude, which runs through Atka
Island.
The objective is to determine
whether there is an area of inter
mingling between American and
Asian stocks of salmon, and if this
is so, to define the area. If it is
found that they do not intermingle
the study will determine the line
of demarcation.
McKay said that in addition to
the tagging, the program will in
clude collection of scientific data
on the North Pacific salmon and
that an important part of the pro
ject would be development of
gear to catch salmon on the high
seas in a condition suitable for
tagging.
Albert Day, director of the Fish
and Wildlife Service, said the pro
gram is a part of preliminary re
search begun last summer in con
nection with the international con
vention for the high seas fisheries
of the North Pacific Ocean.
The convention was signed in
Tokyo last May but is subject to
ratification by the United States,
Canada and Japan. Under it, Jap
an and Canada have agreed to
abstain from salmon fishing east
of 175 degrees West Longitude in
Bering Sea, pending completion
of scientific studies to determine
a permanent line of demarcation
between salmon of American and
Asiatic origin.
ATA Gets Last Reprieve,
Must Go Out of
Business April 24
WASHINGTON, G5V-Air Trans
port Associates, a non - scheduled
air carrier operating between
Seattle and Alaska, got another
reprieve Thursday — possibly its
last.
The Civil Aeronautics Board
enforcement division gave the
carrier until midnight April 24 to
wind up its affairs and go out of
business.
It had been scheduled to go out
of business at midnight Thursday
night.
The action came shortly after
the court of appeals denied the
company’s motion for permission
to ask for a second hearing of
the board order.
The carrier has been in the
courts since Sept. 21, 1951, when
the board revoked its operating
authority on grounds it flew too
regularly and too frequently.
NUDE MODELS SCARCE
SINGAPORE, Lfl — A woman
artist representing a group of
painters laments the scarcity of
nudes in Singapore which other
wise is a painter’s paradise.
“Most of the girls who would
make good studies are too shy.
Those who are willing to take
off all their clothes want $5 an
hour for their services, which is
too dear.” “It’s a pity,” she said,
“because there are some beautiful
subjects here.”

Three Females Corpses
Found In Apartment Of
Quiet Little English Clerk
LONDON, (fl) — Scotland Yard
sounded a general alert Wednes
day for a quiet little clerk whose
apartment in drab Notting Hill
district yielded three female
corpses from a walled-up recess.
One of the dead women was be
lieved to be the wife of the man
sought, 55-year-old John Christie.
Identity Gi the other two bodies
was unknown.
The condition of the corpses
was such that -police were unable
to determine immediately how the
women died.
Tenants of the building, occu
pied by a mixed lot of white and
negro families, told police neither
Christie nor his wife had been
seen for a month.
The bizarre, triple death was
discovered by a prospective ten
ant for the Christie apartment.
While looking over the place, he
found a pantry niche which had
been closed off with several thick
nesses of wallpaper.
He broke through the paper and
was horrified to find the nude
body of a woman.
He called the police, who found
two more corpses in the niche.
Police records revealed that
Christie was the principal witness
in 1949 at the trial of Timothy J.
Evans, who strangled his wife and
infant son in the ssftne dingy
house.
Evans was hanged for the
double murder.
Neighbors said Christie, who
worked for a truck firm, had a
nervous breakdown soon after the
Evans trial.
The weight of water contained
in a piece of wood can he twice
as much as the weight of the dry
wood.
