 Bartlett was the only one of four House subcommittee members to arrive in Seattle for a scheduled hearing yesterday on the proposed elimination of Alaska fishtraps.
 He said the subcommittee of the House committee on merchant marine and fisheries will attempt to hold the hearing in Seattle on the groups return from Alaska. He held a brief session Monday afternoon with Joseph T.

Britain May Receive
B-29 Bombers Under
Arms Aid Program
BY the Assoeioted Press

A defense department spokes-
man said last night that con
sideration" is being given to pro-
viding B-29 bombers for the
United Kingdom under the new
$1,314,010,000 military aid pro-
gram.
There was no immediate indi-
cation how many Superfortresses
might be turned over to the Royal
Air Force If the American Gov
ernment decides definitely on
equipping England with such
planes to augment its striking
force.
However, the United States Air
Force now has more than 1000
B-29s in cocoon storage. a pool
from which it could draw for
,arming the Raj or other mem
bers of the Atlantic Pact.
The USAF still uses B-29s in
the majority of it's long-range
strategic Air Force units, but is
slowly replacing them with B-36s
and, in the medium bomber class
like the B-29s. with B-50s and
new jet-powered BAT bombers.
Negotiations Under Way.
Presumably, negotiations for
transfer of B-29s to Britain are
being conducted at diplomatic
levels between the State Depart
ment and British Foreign Office,
with the USAF and Raj sitting
in as interested parties.
The me-designed Super
fortress would give the RAF a
reaching distance to virtually any
point in Europe from bases inl
England.
The original range of the B-29
has been stretched by more
powerful engines and other i'm
provements until currently the
plane is officially described asl

1000 miles" combat radius is

In long range tests. B-29s have
recently flown distances of over
5000 miles.
3. Can Deliver Atom Bomb.
&, The "over 1000 miles" COM
bat radius can be flown with a |
bomb load of five tons. At shorter
ranges, the B-29 can handle
bomb loads as high as 26 tons.
Also it can deliver the atomic |
bomb.
Whether the RAF would choose
to retain the armament of the
'B-29s. as installed by the USAF,
is not known. A difference III |
gun calibers between the two ma
tions might require a change for
planes delivered for British use.
AS outf1tted in the United
States, B-29 has IL so caliber
machine guns mounted in turrets
directed from a central fire con-
troll. This means that all guns
of the plane can be brought. to
bear on a single target from ones
central point in the bomber.
Since the war, numerous B-29s
have been based in England on
training missions. The current
policy is to maintain three groups
OF 80 planes each in Britain.
