Jap Fishermen's
Condition Said
To Be Unfavorable

spokesman said Wednesday the
condition of 23 Japanese fishermen
burned by radioactive ash from
the March X hydrogen explosion
at Bikini "does not warrant optim
ism."
That backed uj Japanese doctors
who Tuesday cnallenged a state
ment by U. S. Ambassador jonn
Allison that initial tests of the
fishermen gave ' no medical basis
for concern.

injured men recently dropped io
l.ooo rougnty one-sixm oi normal.
However, the council said that in
the nast few days the men's blood
count has improved. But it reiter
ated their condition "does not war
rant optimism."
The 19,000 ton whaling mother

bottles of glycerin. Nelson was ar

walked out- of a restaurant.
Nelson who gave the name Al
len S. Kahn when registering at
the hotel was arrested here orig
inally ina safe-blowing at a super
