Alaska (UPO-The brawny, leather-faced Alaskans who earn their living scooping king crabs from the sea are men long on action and short on diplomacy. They're seething in anger at Russian fishermen who have been coming through carefully developed fishing grounds like vacuum sweepers. carelessly gathering huge quan-1 tities of crabs and killing and maiming thousands of others. The crab fishermen's private cold war with their Soviet coun terparts could turn hot any day perhaps to the point of shoot ingif the Russians persist in destructive "invasions" of the rich fishing waters off Alaska. Some of the U.S. fishermen arc going to sea armed and they don't intend to sit idlv bv , while the Soviets threaten the . very existence of this communi ty's $8 million-a-year crab in dustry by using fishing methods wnicn violate U.S. law. It all started two years ago, on Thanksgiving Day, when a single-engine plane dipped low over the choppy, steel-gray Gulf of Alaska and state Fish and Game Department employe Ov id McKinley saw a fishing traw- ller below with a red hammer and sickle painted on its stack. I Since that first Soviet vessel was detected in traditional U.S. 1 fishing waters off the 4!)lh state, as many as 82 Russian ships ranging in size from 127 - foot trawlers to 575-foot processing vessels have been counted off ' Kodiak lslnnd at one time. Invasion Of Grounds American skippers and state 1 officials call it an "invasion" of ! U.S. developed fishing grounds. Fishermen have testified un der oath that Russian vessels are deliberately harrassing them, destroying their gear, and j as one put it, "generally mak- ! ing themselves obnoxious." Robert J. Simon, a Fish and Game Department biologist, j testified that if Russian fisher men continue their activities, Kodiak's crab fisher could eas ily be ruined perhaps within five years. The tension here and on the waters around the island is j electric. At least two American skip pers are known to have ordered heavy arms an anti-tank rifle and a small cannon from sur plus firms in Los Angeles and Alexandria, Va. Recently, U.S. Coast Guard cutters stopped two American vessels the Eldorado and the North Beach, skippered by Louis Wick and Tom McAllis ter in waters off Kodiak and searched them for arms. Nona was found. The Coast Guard 17th District with headquarters at Juneau, has refused to talk about spe cifics and says only that the boardings were legal under the Navigaiion Act and that if any heavy arms are found they will be confiscated. Extend Patrols Coast Guard patrols off Ko diak were scheduled to stop Oct. 1, because there usually is lit tle activity during the fall and winter months, but thev have been extended until December in an effort to prevent an inter national incident. American fishermen have charged repeatedly and the Coast Guard was reported to have photographs substantiating it that Russian trawlers de liberately drag their nets through strings of American crab pots, cutting the buoy lines so they can't be retrieved or damaging the pots so badly they are worthless. As one disgruntled skipper put it: "The ocean's a pretty big place, yet with all of it to wan der around in, they insist on going right through our gear." Most of the incidents have taken place in international wat ers, where the Coast Guard leg ally is powerless to take action. Some fishermen have reported seeing Russian vessels par ticularly whalers inside the U. S. three-mile limit, but none has ever been caught fishing there. Even if one were caught, un der present law, the Coast Guard could do little since tho United States has no laws pro viding for the arrest or impris onment of foreign fishermen vio lating territorial waters. To make matters worse, Rus sian trawlers have a top speed of 18 knots, while the Coast Guard cutters stationed here can make only 12. U.S. Advisor Says Reds Want to Slow Our Lunar Project WASHINGTON (UPI)-A lead ing space adviser to President Kennedy believes Premier Ni kitu S. Khrushchev's recent space statement was an attempt to slow down the U.S. lunar I project, rather than a Soviet i withdrawal from the space race. Dr. Edward C. Welsh said Tuesday that the Russians have a "strong space progam and are concentrating on it. There j is nothing in this (Khrushchev's ; remarks) to indicate otherwise I and no reason to believe they ! arc slackening." Welsh is executive secretary of the National Aeronautics and Space Council which advises ; President Kennedy on U.S. I space programs. In an inter view with United Press Inter national ne commented on Khrushchev's weekend review of future Soviet space pro grams. Encourage U.S. Reduction Welsh said Khrushchev's comments were an attempt to encourage a reduction in U.S. space efforts so that Russia might maintain any competi tive edge it believes it may have. "lie would maintain this ad vantage on the basis of a slow down on our part rather than a speedup on his." He added that Khrushchev's remarks were made when Con gress was considering the ap propriation bill for the Nation al Aeronautics and Space Ad ministration (NASA). Rep. Olin E. Tcaguc, second ranking Democrat on the House Space Committee, said that Khrushchev's remarks ought to be ignored, and that the U. S. space program should not be changed. The Texas congressman add ed, "I wouldn't trust Khru shchev, even if he swore on a stack of Bibles as high as the Krelmin. Points Out Keys After a close review of Khru shchev s statement, Welsh said there were two key sentences: "At the present lime we are not planning flights of cosmo nauts to the moon. . . . "We do not wish to compete in sending people to the moon without thorough preparation." To Welsh, the Soviet leader's statement "did not say Russia would not compete wilh us on going to the moon." What he did say was that Russia would not dispatch men to the moon without careful advance plan ning. Welsh said, i "The inference he apparent I ly wished to leave," Welch said, "was that the United States may be willing to risk lives bv going ahead hastily but that the Russians won t go until they're ready." Strike Meet Ends Without Progress PORTLAND (UPI) -A meet ing called in an attempt to set tle a strike against Weyerhaeu ser Co. operations in the Coos Bay area broke up Wednesday without any progress, according to Federal Mediator Leroy Smith. Smith said no further meet ings were planned, but he will continue to meet individually wun tne two sides. "I am hopeful further meet ings will be called, but there isn't any basis to call one as of the immediate moment," he said. Local 3-261 of the Internation al Woodworkers of America struck Weyerhaeuser plants at North Bend and logging opera lions near Allegany earlier this month. Smith said the union had a number of grievances, but he declined to list them specifical ly. Union Business Agent Ken Johnson of Coos Bay said over time pay, work required of boom crews and woods loading crews and reinstatement of sus pended workers are involved. Evangelist Refers To Monroe Suicide HOUSTON. Tex. (UPI) Evangelist Billy Graham used the suicide of actress Marilyn Monroe Wednesday to illustrate the importance of obedience of moral laws. Graham was to address a joint meeting today of the Ro tary and Kiwanis clubs, the third talk of his four-day visit. Graham said Miss Monroe's death showed that "sex god desses are not happy." He lold 5.000 students of Houston Bap tist College that "hundreds of you here would like to try and think you can overcome the odds. "But if you break the moral laws," Graham said, "there is no sin which will destroy you quicker. "Sex can be a flaming fire for good in your life if used properly." Graham plans a "crusade for Christ" here in the autumn of 15 at a domed athletic stadi um which is under construction. 0 6
