U. S. Fishermen Urged To Shun
Violence In Trawler Incidents
KODIAK, Alaska (UPI) Amer
ican fishermen here were caution
ed by Gov. William A. Egan last
week to avoid reacting with
violence to what they claim is
deliberate harassment by Rus
sian fishing vessels.
The governor flew here late last
week from the capital of Juneau
to make a first hand investigation
and to check reports that angry
fishermen here had ordered two
anti-tank rifles and ammunition
from a Los Angeles firm.
At a meeting Friday night
which saw 75 persons jam into
Magistrate Court chambers to air
their complaints before Egan,
Mike Lynch, skipper of the boat
Express, said, 'It's going to take
a little act of violence to bring
this thing to a head."
United States
Military Bases
WASHINGTON (UPI) The
United States is streamlining its
military supply lines in Europe,
closing down a group of bases in
France and shipping home the
5,400 U.S. Army troops who man
them.
A Pentagon spokesman said the
action, announced recently, was
being taken purely in the in
terests of economy. He denied
that friction with the government
of French President Charles de
Gaulle had anything to do with
the shutdown.
The 6,200 French civilians work
ing at the military supply depots
will be fired, the Defense Depart
ment said. This move will elim
inate nearly one-third of the U.S.
Public Hearings
Slated For New
Grain Standards
By BERNARD BRENNER
WASHINGTON (UPI) A series
of public hearings gets under way
this week in major wheat trading
centers on a controversial new
proposal to stiffen government
grade standards for wheat.
The proposal is aimed, accord
ing to its sponsors, at improving
the quality of American wheat
moving into export markets.
Backers of the proposed changes
have said the revisions would
make American wheat more at
tractive to foreign buyers. .
Critics of the changes contend
- on the other hand, that they
would reduce farm income. .
Hearings on the issue have
been scheduled by the Agricul
ture Department Tuesday at Kan
sas City, Mo. That session will
be followed by three others Oct.
4 at Minneapolis, Minn.; Oct. 8
at Portland, Ore.; and Oct. 11 at
Toledo, Ohio.
The Agriculture Department
announced the proposals early in
August after a two-year study of
the existing grade standards for
wheat. The changes would reduce
allowable limits on items like
damaged kernels and foreign ma
terial in existing wheat grades.
The new tariff policies of the
European Common Market soon
will be biting into another of the
American farmer's export mar
kets. .
A new Common Market duty on
lard is expected to produce a
rapid and sharp drop in sales of
American lard to Western Ger
many. And another new duty on
variety meats is likely to reduce
American exports to the Com
mon Market gradually over a
period of several years.
In comparison with the total
European market for American
products, the sales affected b y
the latest tariff moves will be
relatively small. But the princi
ple involved the Common Mar
ket's use of a new variable duty
system is something the U.S.
government has been fighting for
more than a year. It's the same
system used to cut European im
ports of American poultry by
about $46 million.
Police Action Prevents
Asylum Escape Attempt
BROADMOOR, England (UPD-
Quick action by police frustrated
a 20-man murder-and-escape plot
at the asylum here which houses
Britain's criminally insane, it was
reported.
A shakedown search inspired
by an informer's tip uncovered
seven hacksaw blades, a 10-inch
knife and a detailed sketch of the
18-foot wall around the asylum's
kitchen garden. Three of the saw
blades were hidden in the spines
of books recently sent to an in
mate. The inmate with the books,
whose name was not made pub
lic, told questioners he and 19
other men had planned to kill a
guard and go over the wall.

"I sympathize with you and
other fishermen," Egan told
Lynch. '"If I were the skipper of
one of those boats, I would feel
the same way. But an act of vio
lence would hinder rather than
expedite that day when a solution
will be reached."
Charge Deliberate Destruction
But many fishermen seemed
tired of waiting and threatened
violence unless the federal gov
ernment takes action to stop what
they said is deliberate destruction
of their gear by Russian fisher
men. Egan said he hoped a plea by
Sen. E. L. Bartlett, D-Alaska, for
more Coast Guard and Navy ves
sels to be stationed in Alaska
waters would ease the tension in
the fishing areas off. Kodiak Is-

Airlift Division
Earlier this week, the Pentagon
announced that an entire armored
division 16,000 troops would be
airlifted to West Germany in 240
huge transport planes for a week
of maneuvers in "Operation Big
Lift." The operation will be the
largest overseas airlift ever un
dertaken.
There was speculation at that
time that the massive airlift could
point the way to eventual with
drawal of some of the U.S. com
bat troops now stationed in Eu
rope, thus aiding in reduction of
the nation's balance of payments
deficit.
Defense Secretary Robert S.
McNamara said "Operation Big
Lift" would "provide a dramatic
illustration of the United States
capability for rapid reinforcement
of NATO forces." He said it
would "project a new magnitude
of United States military respon
siveness." Economical Supply Routes '
The Pentagon said Friday the
port and depot facilities would be
closed in France because "short
er, more economical routes of
supply . . . will permit forward
positioning of military stocks.
The troops to be returned home
were identified as the 4th Logisti
cal Command, headquartered at
Verdun. There was no estimate
as to when the reorganization
might be completed, but similar
operations have sometimes taken
12 to 18 months.
The troops being brought home
presumably are in addition to the
40,000 scheduled for redeployment
back to the United States by the
end of this year.
Token Opposition
Predicted For 1st
Civil Rights Bill
WASHINGTON (UPI) Sen
ate leaders expected only token
opposition today when the bill to
extend the Civil Rights Commis
sion for one year is brought up
for action.
Several Southern senators were
ready to attack the extension,
but major delaying moves such
as a filibuster were considered
unlikely against the measure
which is the first cilvil rights
proposal to reach the Senate
floor this year. The commission
expires officially at midnight but
leaders were hopeful they could
pass the extension by this week.
The measure will be attached
as a "rider" to a House-approved
private relief bill that would pay
$816.83 to Mrs. Elizabeth G. Ma
son, a World War II widow in
Houlton, Maine.
Although the commission offic
ially ends business tonight, its
employes can continue for two
months in closing-up operations.
Supporters of the extension said
failure of Congress to act by to
night would make little difference
in the commission's operation.
Other congressional news:
Wheat: Members of the Senate
Foreign Relations and Agricul
ture committees were to receive

retary Orville E. Freeman and
Commerce Secretary Luther Hod

no definite offer has Been re
ceived by the Russians, Ameri
can grain dealers who bargained
with a Soviet mission last week
said the Soviet Union was inter
ested in buying three million tons
of U. S. wheat for about $250
million.

"What we've been trying to im
press these people in Washington
with is that these recent actions
are not inadvertent slips. These
are deliberate attempts to harass
our fishermen. An act of violence
would upset the progress we've
made so far," Egan said.
Coast Guard Capt. R. E. Hammon
also warned the fishermen not to
let their tempers get the best of
them.
"The minute you shoot at a Rus
sian window, you too are violating
the law. "The Russians could shoot
and sink you and nobody would
be able to help, he said.
In International Waters
Incidents involving Russian fish
ing vessels have taken place in
international waters and the Coast
Guard has been powerless to in
tervene. But Egan hinted that action of
some sort would be forthcoming.
"What's happening here is hap
pening along the northeastern
coast too. We will be helped by
diplomatic overtures. But if we
still experience gear losses, then
stronger measures may have to
be taken with worldwide implica
tions, he said.
Russian vessels fish for crab
with large nets which are dragged
along tne Dottom of the ocean
scooping under the crabs and
sometimes under stationary objects
such as American crab pots which
are lowered to the bottom of the
ocean.
Alaska fishermen have said they
have lost at least 77 crab
pots valued at a minimum of $200
each because of the actions of
Russian fishing vessles.
Eisenhower Has
No Favorites
As Candidates
NEW YORK (UPI) Former
President Dwight D. Eisenhower
said Sunday he had no favorites
for the GOP presidential nomina
tion and stressed that the party
had a "wealth of men" from
which to choose a candidate.
At the same time Eisenhower,
in a copyrighted dispatch in the
New York Herald Tribune, denied
reports that he opposed Sen. Bar
ry M. Goldwatcr, R-Ariz., for the
nomination.
However, Eisenhower said he
was "unclear on- precisely" what
Goldwater's present "views are.
He said that only when candi
dates mentioned for the nomina
tion "are on record with -their
current views will the party be
in a position to make the most in
telligent choice.
"I think all Republicans would
want to learn more about how he
(Goldwater) and each of the
other possible candidates would
now approach the issues of 1964,"
he added.
"At this point I am neither
against nor specifically for any
candidate but do wish them all
well. I shall not participate in a
move to 'stop' any one candi
date." Others he mentioned as possi
bilities for the nomination were
New York Gov. Nelson Rocke
feller, Michigan Gov. George
Romney, Pennsylvania Gov. Wil
liam Scranton, former Treasury
Secretary Robert Anderson and
Walter Judd, former congress
man from Minnesota.
"In Oregon's Gov. (Mark) Hat
field we have one of the vigor
ous and typically western voices
that should be heard. I could
name, and have done so in the
past, a dozen other highly quali
fied possibilities from govern
ment, business and the " profes
sions, who would not only make
valuable contributions to the dis
cussion, but would, if the conven
tion saw fit, make excellent can
didates," he said.
Wolf Creek Slayer Gets
Fifteen-Year Sentence
GRANTS PASS (UPI) -Gerald
Oden, 25 Wolf Creek, has been
sentenced to 15 years in the Ore
gon Penitentiary for voluntary
manslaughter.
Circuit Judge Orval Millard
tacked on two more years after
Oden pleaded guilty to burglary.
Oden was convicted of man
slaughter by a jury Sept. 14 as a
result of the fatal beating of Lloyd
Harper, 48, Grants Pass, July 12.
Oden and Norman Thomas, 22,
Grants Pass, were arrested on
charges of first degree murder
following the slaying. Thomas will
go on trial later.
Oden also was charged with
burglary not in a dwelling after
the Tru-Firm Lumber Co. near
Grants Pass was entered May 21.

Season Of Year Has No

NEW YORK (UPI) Statisti
cal proof is now offered that the
season of the year does not in

cal scientists who produced it
hoped it would kill a common be
lief among ulcer men and even
their physicians that there are

Drs. Syed Z. Ahmed, Martin

for statistical error.

analyzed 411 completely docu
mented cases of hemorrhaging or
perforation treated in the hospit
al during the 10 years from 1949
to 1958.
Existence Was Proven
In each case the presence of
an ulcer crater in either the
stomach or duodenum had been
proved either by X-ray or in sur
gery or by ajtopsy. The season of
the year of drastic worsening was
established in the hospital rec
ords, of course.
Autumn was taken to begin
Sept. 21, winter, December 21,
spring, March 21, and summer,
June 21. Statistically 29 per cent
of the worsenings occurred in au
tumn, which was the highest. In
summer 21.6 per cent took place.
But the occurrences in winter
and spring were 24.6 per cent
and 24.8 per cent respectively.

Influence On Ulcers
No matter what statistical check
ing formula you apply, there is
no statistical significance in those
differences and the scientists
were emphatic in spying so.
In the morbid chit-chat among
the high-pressure ulcer men in
American life, the belief is that
spring and autumn are the "ul
cer seasons" and summer is the
season when a man is least like
ly to have a flare-up.
Not only did the over-all statis
tics disprove that; it was proved
again when the scientists broke
the statistics down for ycar-by-year
analysis in the hope of dem
onstrating regular cycles if such
cycles existed.
Summer Was Worst
In two of the 10 years summer
had the highest incidence of se-1
vere worsening and it had the
lowest in only three years. Au-1
