FISH OFFICIAL
 FEARS STRIKE
 ON WATERFRONT
w. (. Arnold, Alaska Sal. mon Industry Man.
 dger, in Juneau

It is not the current weeks closure of salmon fishing in South east Alaska that w c. Arnold, Managing director of the Alaska Salmon Industry. Inc. talked about today. but. the threat of steam ship tieup which would immobilize practically half the Territory's salmon pack.
 Arnold, in Juneau to confer with E. E. Murray, President of the Alaska Salmon Industry, said that the movement of crews is already acute, in spite of the. fact that 4,O0O fishermen and cannery work CTS have already been airborne to their homes from the Naknek air port. Fifteen hundred of these were resident fishermen and can- nery workers, Eskimos, Aleuts, whites. natives from S. E. Alaska and the Yukon and from points as far separated as Kotzcbue and kAtLClllkdI, anu do Aoi WSoe 0o Atka.
 Fishing on the Peninsula, where the season closed August 12, ap- preached a new low. A substan- tial factor in the below average season, according to Arnold, was not lack of fish, but three weeks of violent storms that prevented fishermen from operating fixed or mobile gear.
 Three days lost in the beginning of the short Bristol Bay season due to failure to reach a fishing agreement between operators and gill netters before the season open ed, contributed to the pack in that area being short of last year.
 Arnold was joined in Ketchikan last week by Mrs Arnold and their daughter. Bill, Jr., spent the sum- mer at the Kadiak Fisheries can nery at Port Bailey, destroyed by fire Sunday night.
 Judge Arnold will remain in Ju- neau for several days.

Russia Charges New Na- lion Is Puppet of
 British

LAKE SUCCESS, Aug. 18.-lR- Russia today vetoed Ceylon's ap- plication for United Nations mem bership. It was the 27th Soviet veto in Security Council history.
 The vote in the Council on the application from the new Asiatic nation was g to with the Soviet Ukraine joining Russia in opposi- tion. As the ballot was subject to the Big Power veto provision. the Russian NO" automatically blocked Ceylon.
 The last Russian veto was June p, being used to block adoption of a report on International Control of Atomic Energy.
 Foreign Minister Dmitri z. Man. uilsky, addressing the Security Council, said the new Asiatic na- tion is a puppet of Britain and is neither sovereign nor independent. He classified Ceylon with Trans Jordan, which Russia vetoed previ- ously on the contention that the Arab State is British satellite.

BERLIN, Aug. l8--tR-American foot troops wound up an-night de- fensive maneuvers early today Ill the Grunewald Forest of Soviet blockaded Berlin. Reports from Hamburg said the Russians are winding up summer maneuyers ol their own near the zonal frontiers
 Helmeted troops with rifles, mor- tars and machineguns simulated delaying action against an enemy that had captured Gatow airport the British supply field for the sealed off western sectors
 Officers in charge of the opera tion said British troops theoretically took part in the maneuver
 Earlier yesterday other American troops joined the French units III maneuvers along the Rhine River near Heidelberg. It was the first time since the wars end the two Allies had engaged in joint wal games. U. s. and French officers said the show was successful and pre- dicted other such efforts in the fu- ture. Only l,5OO troops took part in the operation.
 The Grunewald Forest maneuvel caused considerable excitement among the Germans. Several called the Associated Press Bureau here to ask what truckloads of helmetec troops and armored cars were doing in the woods. The forest runs through the American and British sectors of Berlin.
 Berlin is deep in the Soviet occu- patton zone, entirely surrounded Dy it.
