Fishing Boats Called Threat WASHINGTON (UPI) - Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., warned today that super Russian trawlers harvesting traditional U.S. fishing grounds were "as real and immediate" a threat as a Soviet collective farm in Iowa. Kennedy urged passage of a $125 million. 10-ycar subsidy pro gram for building fishing boats to compete against the Russians who. he said, have invaded the North Atlantic in "massive numbers" and have spread their activities along all U.S. coasts. In a prepared statement in be half of himself and Sen. Leverelt Saltonstall, R-Mass., Kennedy told a Senate commerce subcommittee that "the future of our fishing in dustry is at slake." The subsidy bill was given t fair chance to get through Con gress this year. OUR ANCESTORS Officials said approximately 220 dependents of V S. military and diplomatic officials are in Haiti. Tliere are about 160 U.S. gov ernment employes there, attached to the U.S. Embassy, to an Air Force mission, a military advisory mission and a naval mission. The State Department estimated about 100 other private American viU- zens also are in the strife-torn is land nation. Stale Department press olficer Joseph W. Reap said the number of private citizens who may want to leave "cannot be determined at this time." Security Couneil to Mce In another development, the State Department said It was not opposed to a meeting Wednesday of the United Nations Security Council, requested by Haiti on the Haitian-Dominican Republic situa tion. But the U.S. position is that l lie Organization of American States, rather than the United Na tions, should continue to handle the matter. Reap said. The White House was said to be keeping close watch on the Carib bean crisis which has threatened to explode into open conflict be tween Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Meanwhile, in Congress, t h e House foreign affairs subcommit tee on Latin America, headed by Hep. Armstead I. Sclden Jr., D- ila., called a closed-door session for Wednesday to discuss the crisis with administration officials. Haiti Situation Dangerous State Department officials said the evacuation decision was made Monday and was promoted by continuing conditions in Haiti, rather than by any sudden new development. One official said the situation hasn't improved and therefore it was decided it would be desirable to get these people, out." U.S. naval units, with about 2.U00 Marines aboard, have been standing off Haiti several days for a possible rescue mission in event Americans in Haiti were endangered. The evacuailon decision does not mean the United Slates thinks the Dominican Republic is about to carry out an invasion oi nam, officials said. They said it was re lated to internal conditions in Haiti. fyQuincy "Swell! You and your 'let's take the truck route and save time'!" Missile Scientist Dies EL MONTE. Calif.
