For Salmon
Proposed
By JACK HEWTXS
SEATTLE i AP) - Sports, com
mercial and Indian fishing inter
ests in the Pacific Northwest are
urging the federal government to
set up salmon sanctuaries similar
to the wilderness areas defined by
Congress for wildlife protection
and recreational use.
"It is an approach to the prob
lem of saving the salmon which
will not cost millions of dollars to
finance." Joseph T. Mijieh, Seat
tle attorney, said Tuesday.
He estimated that federal and
state agencies have spent upwards
of $200 million in the attempt to
minimize the effect of dams on
migrating fish.
Both Mijieh and Edward M.
Mains, assistant state fisheries
director, urged this approach at
the fisheries hearing here Oct. 12
' of the Senate Interstate and For
eign Commerce Committee.
Mijieh appeared in behalf of the
; Washington State Sportsmen's
' Council. Oregon Wildlife Federa
'. lion. Fishermen's Cooperative As
! sociation. Northwest Fisheries As
I sociation. Alaska Fishermen's Un
ion, Pacific Fish Conservation
League and the Makah Indian
; Tribe.
Speaking for the State Depart
ment of Fisheries, Mains urged
that all remaining tributaries of
the Columbia River be set aside
as sanctuaries.
He said the millions spent on
fish passage facilities at Columbia
' River dams "will be wasted un-
less the fish have some place to
" go to spawn."
"If primitive areas are good for
forests and lands, they are equal
'. ly good for water and fish,"
. Mijieh said in his statement,
which became part of the com
mittee records.
"Despite the - half century of
concentration on setting aside rec
reational wilderness areas there
has been no parallel attention to
the need of the fishery resources
for similar protection."
The attorney called attention to
the action by Washington State,
through legislation and initiative.
establishing a fish sanctuary of
most of the Columbia s tributaries
downstream from McNary Dam
and prohibiting new dams higher
than 25 feet.
He cited the unsuccessful bill by
Senator Church, D-Idaho. which
would have made the Salmon Riv
er a fish sanctuary, as "extreme
ly farsighted." Mijieh, quoting the
Idaho Fish and Game Department,
said some 200.000 migrant fish
soawn annually in the Salmon
River, including 136.000 spring chi
nook salmon.
"Authority over the waters that
produce our salmon and trout
largely rests with the federal gov
ernment," said the Mijieh statement.
He predicted that in another
year almost the entire upper
Snake River run of migrant fish
will have been destroyed by the
complex of dams in Hell's Canyon
area, arguing that conventional
fish passage devices promise only
partial safeguards.
"One new approach is available
to Congress which will not require
millions of dollars to. tinance,
Miiich said.
"It is the legislative reservation
of waters and watersheds for the
purpose of insuring a future supply
of natural, unspoiled, spawning
grounds for the production of ana
dromous i migrant' fish."
Pravda Head
Challenged
NEW YORK iAP The editor
of the New York Post challenged
the editor of Moscow's Commu
nist party organ Pravda today to
print the American's ideas about
the Soviet's latest atomic explo
sion. James A. Wechsler. the New
York editor, offered in return to
"make available the same amount
of space to you (or any rejoinder i
you care to make."
Pravda carlir had accepted
Wechsler's challenge to publish
the New Yorker's views on Presi
dent Kennedy. In that article.
Wechsler had said the President
had no illusion that any nation
could win an atomic war but that
Kennedy would not allow the
I'nited States to accept defeat.
In the article he offered today.
Wechsler said that "no 'super
bomb' can chance the fundamcn-j
tal (act of our time that no na
tion can hope to achieve real
'victory' in an atomic war."
He also wrote that Khrushchev
once said that those "who are
first to violate the nuclear test
ban will cover lherrelves with
shame, they will be branded by
all the peoples of the world.' "
