."concerted attention" to un
folding the mysteries of the
' sea.
He said the United States
has redoubled efforts to
!find the best way to de-salt
ocean water and will share its
-know-how with all nations.
"Such a breakthrough
' would end bitter struggles be-
nations," Kennedy said.
To Submit Program
" He told Congress in his
special message on natural re
sources that he would send
the ' House and Senate "a
national program for oceano
graphy" for use in consider
ation of the 1962 budget.
.'" Kennedy, who has a love
:or the sea, said the ocean is
one of science's least under
stood subjects.
He said this country would
'need an additional three bu
llion pounds of fish and, shell
fish annually by 1980 and
many other countries could
' benefit by extensive use of
sea life for food,
i Increased Efforts
"But all this will require
increased efforts, under fed
eral leadership, for rehabilia
' tion of depleted stocks of sal
' mon and sardines in the Pa
' cif ic, groundf ish and oysters
' in the Atlantic, lake trout and
.' other desirable species in the
Great Lakes, and many others
through biological research,
' development of methods for
passing fish over dams and
control of pollution,". Ken-
nedy said.
The President also noted
that "continental shelves bor
I dering the United States con
tain roughly 20 per 'cent of
' our remaining reserves of
crude oil and natural gas."
: Aircraft Carrier
Joins Search for
Four Men on Raft
i San Nicholas Island, Calif.-(UPD-The
aircraft carrier Ticon
"deroga and smaller ships and
. Dlanes searched today for four
Navy men, including a'would-
be rescuer, Blown out ,io sea
in a rubber raft. .. '
The search during the pre
dawn hours was conducted
"with flares and search lights,
"tut heavy seas and mist kick
ed up by strong winds hamper-
led rescuers. :
" Three off-duty Navy men
were skindiving from.the raft
about 200 yards off shore late
Wednesday when wind gusts
tup to 35 miles an hour pre
sented them from rowing
"back. , 1
Hope Too Short J
Two men on' the beach
"swam out to the men with
"a rope anchored to shore. The
..rope proved too short by about
-50 feet, and one of the. two
rescuers swam onto the raft
, ''.in hopes of helping the strand-
ted skindivers row the short
"distance to the rope.
When the men lifted the
.raft's anchor, strong winds
slowly shoved them out to
'sea despite their frantic ef
forts at rowing. The would-be
rescuer was hauled on board.
The raft was estimated to
be bobbing along the ocean
,in a southwesterly direction
-at a rate of about two miles
'an hour under the impact of
,"the winds and currents.
