WASHINGTON, Feb 23. = The Interior Department is charged with fostering a belief that salmon traps in Alaska are concentrated Tn the hands of a few large can- neries to the detriment of Terri torial residents.
 w. c. Arnold, representing Alas La Salmon Industries, Inc, express cd belief at hearing on a De- partment proposal to limit Alaskan fishing traps to 20 per firm with the total reduced to 10 after three years, that politics had entered into the situation.
 "The feeling that the canneries nave monopoly on the traps has Ieen fostered and prolonged by people in this Department, he said. Tt was fostered by Gov. Gruening (of Alaska and others"
 Know Nots Blamed
 Arnold gave an opinion that the plan for amendments to the Alas Ia commercial fishing regulations vas based on a report of Depart snent men unfamiliar with the Ter .ttory and said only one of them had ever visited Alaska. He insisted that even if the plan was not put into operation until 1947, inde- pendent operators would not find it profitable to install traps that cost up to $l00,000.
 Installing single trap" the witness said would be uneconomi- cal and the owner would lose mo- :7ey."
 ShieIs Testifies
 A. w. Shiels of Bellingham, Wash, President of the Pacific American Fisheries, said his firm would have to abandon much of its 1,e'siness under the plan. The con- cern operates eight canneries, joint y operates five others and has 48 ilsh traps. It has a $6,000,000 in yestment in the industry in AL aska.
 T don't believe it would be hu- manly possible for this or any oth- CT Government department to al- locate the traps for 1946." Shiels terrified. Tt would mean loss of thousands of cases of salmon this gear"
 Shiels said his company pur- chased fish from seven independ- ent trap owners and that it in- stalled the traps but charged the owners the actual cost. He said the companies preseason cost in pre- pairing for the years operation would be nearly $3,000,000.
 Under Secretary of the Interior Gordner, who conducted the hear- ing, questioned Shiels closely con- cerning details of his arrangement with private trap owners. He asked If such plan could not be fol- ! lowed generally by packers. The witness said it would depend upon 1 the reliability of the owner of the trap.
 ] Arnold predicted that if the plan becomes effective and independence gwen the trap site owners will sell the use of the site to canners when conditions become adverse.
 He said he believed the salmon resources belong to the nation as a whole and should not be giyer away by the government He insist

Several minor points on when

were referred to the Big Four

will be discussed by the Big Four

The backbone of the Russian
resistance to the ideas OF Secre-
tarv of State James F. Byrnes
and British Foreign Secretary
Ernest Bevin on making the
Trieste governor a powerful ruler
was broken. though Byrnes and
Bevin made some concessions.
The most important Anglo
American concession was to eliml-

would have permitted the govern

The major deadlock in the Big

bv the government should be au-

than on a nationwide basis.
But one official said that, even
if the general increase OF five per-
cent is permitted, OPA then could
proceed to individual revisions for
landlords who can justify claims
for still higher rents. But he doubt
ed that many landlords could JUS
tify an increase as high as the
suggested Is percent.
President Truman cleared tn e
way for higher rent ceilings when
he issued his recent decontrol
order. He said then that some ad-
justments were necessary, but he
did not indicate how much they
should be or whether they would
be individual or general boosts.
