jpeaKer says state
salmon industry
facing extinction
By Bill Yates
Bulletin Staff Writer
A spokesman for Oregon's
salmon industry charged here
Friday that an initiative mea
sure facing state voters in No
vember would, if ' approved,
have the effect of destroying
commercial fishing in Oregon.
The speaker was Dan W.
Shausten, a representative of
Salmon for All, Inc. His talk
was given before a forum lunch
eon arranged by the B e n d
Chamber of Commerce.
He accused proponents of the
initiative of being vague about
the effect of the measure should
it be approved and charged
them with circulating informa
tion based largely on appeals to
voters' emotions.
Shausten noted that the only
remaining commercial fishing
permitted in the state is along
a 135-mile stretch of the lower
Columbia, and this "last rem
nant," he said, would be wiped
out under provisions of the in
itiative proposal.
Shausten denied that over
fishing on the part of the com
mercial fishing industry had de
pleted salmon and steelhead
Salinger bid
legality eyed
in California
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) -
Former White House Press Sec
retary Pierre Salinger began his
quest for a U. S. Senate seat to
day under a shadow of doubt
over the legality of his candi
dacy. The cigar-chomping Salinger
- submitted hi aetnlimthm papera
in his native San francisco just
two hours before the filing
deadline Friday and then told
a news conference his candidacy
was a self-inspired "draft."
"I could tell you that I have
succumbed to the urging of my
many friends," Salinger said
with a smile. "But the truth is
that this candidacy is a genuine
draft a draft inspired by the
candidate himself."
Throws Out Challtnga
Salinger also challenged his
two principal Democratic oppo
nents in the June primary to a
debate. They are ailing incum
bent Sen. Clair Engle and state
Controller Alan wanston.
The legal doubts over Salin
ger's candidacy center on
wnetner ne can meet me qual
ifications set down on the fed
eral and state constitution. Al
though a native of California,
Salinger last registered to vote
in Virginia.
The U. S. constitution requires
only that a candidate for the
Senate be an "inhabitant" of
the state from which he is elect
ed. State law requires the can
didate be registered with his
party for three months but does
not specity mat sucn registra
tion be in California.
Decision Delayed
A determination will not be
made on the legal points until
Salinger's nomination papers
are forwarded to the secretary
of state for certification. The
state attorney general's office
refused to comment on the is -
sue.
HOW MUCH IS

runs on the Columbia. He noted
official opposition to the initia
tive by the State Fish Commis
sion and recalled that testimony
by that agency had emphasized
availability of spawning areas
as the key factor in the declin
ing fish population.
Factors Lilted
Other factors listed by the
speaker as having affected fish
runs were dams, timber activ
ity, water pollution, and in gen
eral, "the encroachment of civ
ilization."
Shausten said the salmon in
dustry feels it has many friends
among sportsmen and takes the
position that those who are pro
moting the initiative measure
represent "a relatively small
minority of emotional people."
He said that the industry he
represents, last year had a
wholesale value to the state of
$5.2 million and employed 650
commercial fishermen and 1200
cannery employes. This indus
try, he contended, would be lost
to the state if voters approve
the initiative measure.
Move to Washington
As a final point, Shausten said
that should Oregon deny the Co
lumbia to commercial fisher
men, the industry will likely
move over to Washington, where
there is no such legislation.
Therefore, he said, the measure
would in the en ., result in no
lessening of commercial activity
on the Columbia, but would, in
stead, bring loss of a major in
dustry to the state.
Jim Griggs, district fishery
biologist for the State Game
Commission, rose following
Shausten's presentation to offer
a partial rebuttal to several
points made Dy tne speaiter.
Among these were the position
taken fey the Ssmte Oafnereoemj
mission on the initiative mea
sure and the question of wheth
er spawning areas would oe
overcrowded If commercial fish
ing were prohibited,
Prior to Shausten s talk,
Chamber President R. G. Mc-
Fariand introduced area politi
cal candidates who had been In
vited to attend the forum ses
sion. These included Charles L.

senate candidates; Ben Evick,

Efforf made
to free barge
BANDON, Ore. (UPI) -Ef
forts to free a lumber barge
from its second perch on a Co
quille River jetty were sched
uled to continue near here to
day. The 300-foot barge was pulled
free of the south jetty at the
mouth of the river Friday by
the tug Salvage Chief from As
toria, but it drifted across the
bay and ran aground on the
north jetty.
The Salvage Chief had worked
the craft loose after the chains
were cut and one-third of its
cargo of 4-million board feet of
lumber was dumped to lighten

2 defecting
Cuban fliers
MIAMI (UPI) - Authorities
planned extensive questioning
today of two Cuban air force
pilots who commandeered a
Russian-made helicopter, shot
its pilot dead, and flew to the
United States.
The two defectors were
brought here Friday night from
Key West, along with the heli
copter's 17-year-old gunner who
asked to be returned to Cuba.
The body of the pilot was tak
en to a Key West funeral home.
Cuban exiles here hailed the
defection as the "most signifi
cant" since the United States
and Cuba broke diplomatic re
lations in 1961 because it in
volved the first active military
men to flee from Fidel Castro's
regime in that time.
Could Have Impact
Exile leaders felt the "psy
chological impact" of the de
fection upon Castro's armed
forces could be "tremendous."
The olive drab helicopter.
blood-spattered inside and out
and marked with bullet holes,
flew into Key West Friday af
ternoon. Startled bystanders saw the
Negro gunner tumble from his
compartment in the lower part
of the aircraft and start to flee,
apparently not sure what the
men above planned for him. He
stopped when he saw authori
ties chasing him.
The pilot of the Russian ma
chine, who police investigators
saw aiea instantly from tne
blast of a "burp" pistol that
left seven bullet holes in his
bodv. was identified as Jose
Arcadia Qarcw Hla body was
slumped in the pilot's compart
ment.
The other three men were
identified as Guillermo Santos,
20, the dead man's co pilot,
gunner Sergio Rogue, 17, and
Andres Izaguirre, 20, another
pilot who dashed from bushes
and jumped aboard the 'copter
as the machine began lifting off
from its base near Havana.
Izaguirre and Santos, who
was supposed to be flying a
routine patrol mission in the
helicopter, asked the 34-year-old
Garcia, a former Castro guer
rilla fighter, to fly to Florida.
When he refused, the men tried
to relieve him of an automatic
pistol.
Upon arrival, the defectors
immediately asked U.S. author
ities for asylum and were
brought here after preliminary
questioning in Key West. Mon
roe County Sheriff Henry Has-
kins said after hearing their
story that no homicide charges
would be filed against them.

Heavyweight champion Cas-

the induction system from U.S.
Congressmen Friday in wasn

for Army inductees.
"Had I flunked math, I still
could have peeled potatoes for
the first two months of my
Army service which I did,"
Ayres said. "Anybody that can
throw a punch like Cassius

knife around a potatoe."
Rep. Cornelius E. Gallagher,

Insulted at having flunked. Gal
lagher suggested that Clay ask
for a waiver and the Congress
man offered to "intercede" for
Clay to obtain the waiver.

HELMSTEDT, Germany
(UPI) The Russians today,
freed one of three Amorican fli
ers captured when their jet re-1
connaissance plane was snot
down by Soviet fighters over
East Germany March 10.
First Lt. Harold W. Welch,
24, of Detroit, Mich., who suf
fered a broken leg and a brok
en arm when he parachuted from
the plane, was returned to the
west in a u. s. Air f orce am
bulance from a Soviet military
hospital in Magdeburg, East
Germany, where he had been un
der treatment.
The Air Force had announced
that Welch -was being released
today.
There was no word on the
whereabouts of the other Ameri
can fliers in the downed RB66
Capts. David I. Holland, 35, of
Holland,, Minn., and Melvin J,
Kessler, 30, of Philadelphia, Pa.
From West Berlin
An' Air Force ambulance
drove from West Berlin this
morning to pick up Welch at
the Soviet military -hospital in
Magdeburg, East Germany,
where he has been treated for
a broken leg and a broken
arm.
The spokesman said Welch
will be flown immediately to
Wiesbaden, headquarters of the
U.S. Air Force In Europe.
Newspapermen will not be al
lowed to interview the student
navigator here, he added.

Hennessen visited Welch
twice in the Soviet hospital
earlier this week, and another
U.S. doctor also was allowed
to examine the injured air
men.
The doctors asked the Rus
sians to release Welch, but un
til today the Russians refused.
Western diplomats here dis
counted a Soviet hint that the
other two captive fliers might
be turned over to the Commu
nists in East Germany.
Diplomatic sources said So
viet Foreign Minister Andrei
Gromyko's statement in Stock
holm Friday that the case was
one "for the East German
authorities" probably was more
a "vague menace" than an
"immediate threat."
The whereabouts of the other
