Seaton Order
Upsets Cook Inlet
Fisheries Program
ANCHORAGE, UP) — The abo
lition of fish traps ordered by In
terior Secretary Fred Seaton will
make necessary a large-scale re
organization of the Bureau of
Commercial Fisheries program in
Cook Inlet, Johs Skerry, in charge
of the fisheries office here said
Monday.
Removal of the traps could mean
additional fishing time for area
fishermen, Skerry indicated.
There are 55 pile-driven and
hand traps in the inlet. None are
owned by Natives and this would
come under the Seaton order.
In the past, the units of fishing
gear — nets — to be used in the
inlet during the commercial sea
son have determined the length
of the fishing week. Last Season,
fishermen were allowed to fish
two 24-hour days a week.
Elimination of the hand and
pile traps would reduce consider
ably the number of fishing units
in Cook Inlet. The end of traps,
! too, is seen by many conserva
tionists and fishermen as a move
which will bring about increased
net fishing in the future.
Five firms operate most of the
traps in the inlet — Fidalgo Is
land Packing Co.; Libby McNeill
and Libby; Snug Harbor Packing
Co.; Pacific American Fisheries,
and Alaska Year-Round Canneries.
Snug Harbor and Alaska Year
round are Alaska companies.

Colombo Plan
Conference Maps
‘Better Life’
SEATTLE, UP) — Visibly buoyed
by a five-point program for prog
ress handed them by President
Eisenhower, 200 delegates to the
Colombo Plan conference grappled
yesterday with the grim details of
bringing about a better life for
one-third of the human race.
The delegates — Asians in par
ticular — expressed keen appre
ciation of Eisenhower’s attention
to detail. They hailed his five spe
cific avenues toward improving
living standards among south and
southeast Asians as encouraging
take off ^points for some stern
work ahead. Spokesmen for the
six donor countries, 12 recipient
nations and three colonies, noted
these points in their responses to
the President’s speech:
1. Although progress continued
this year in developing the coun
tries which the plan was created
to help, the rate of progress
slowed generally. How much was
not stated. The meetings on the
ministerial level are closed.
2. Implicit in the whole Asian
situation is the idea that time
is short. #
The President himself noted
that millions of people went to
bed hungry, had never had enough
to eat. Pakistan delegate Moham
med Ali underscored the idea
with the warning that “it is fu
tile to talk to hungry nations of
economic theories or the blessings
of the democratic way of life.
... In Asia, the people see no
rhyme nor reason as to why they
should remain ill fed and ill clad
when God’s bounties have been
bestowed for all mankind.”
The Ceylonese delegate R. S. S.
Dunewardene, noted that trade
and trade balances have fallen off,
partly because of fear of an Amer;
ican depression.
Politely not mentioned, but well
known to every man present, are
four recent turnovers in Asian
governments — all rooted in the
slow rate of progress which their
increasing populations have ex
pected since gaining freedom.
