 Hoey said that if Mundt had made such remarks at court trial, the case would be thrown out of court. But Mundt demanded that his remarks stay in the record.
 The sharp exchange between Mundt and Hoey at the five per cent inquiry came after these oth- CT developments:
 1. Senator Mccarthy (R-Wis) demanded that John Maragon, key figure in the investigation, be in dicted for perjury
 2. Milton R. Poland, a Mil- Waukee insurance man, testified he paid $1,OO0 to Maragon for trying to get a sugar rationing suspension order lifted against the Allied Mo lasses Company of Perthamboy, N. J., in 1946.
 3. Herbert c. Hathorn, a form CT Agriculture Department en- ployee, testified that Vaughan was "a little rough on him in trying to get him to grant an allocation of sugar to the New Jersey firm in 1946.
 4 The committee got testimony that Maragon, in trying to get a sugar ration for the same firm, represented himself as a White House liaison man when he went to the Agriculture Department.
 The hearing was recessed until Tuesday after today's session.

SALMON FISHING LOOKS GOOD IN
 SE ALASKA WATERS

Although reports are not yet complete enough to give the over all picture of commercial fishing in Southeast Alaska, a number of excellent runs seem to point to a good season, according to Clar- ence J. Rhode, Alaska director of the US. Fish and Wildlife Service
 Salmon fishing in both sections was opened Monday at am, the date for northern waters having been advanced week because of general early seeding.
 Both seine and trap catches are fairly strong in Icy Strait, said Rhode today. Reports on five seine boats for Monday and Tuesday showed an average of more than 4,000 fish a day.
 More than 100 boats appeared in the Anan Creek area (near Wran- gelD on opening day, their seines all but entangling each other in the rush The catch was there, too; che packer had delivered 90,0O0 fish from that area alone.
 Tt looks like a fairly strong run in upper Ernest Sound" commented Rhode, as he discussed the excep- tional areas.
 Fishing will close September 3 in Southeast Alaska waters, unless, according to Rhode, there should be strong evidence of unusually good runs, in which case, there might te an extension.
 Air surveys and surface patrols are being used to observe the runs in the outside waters of the Sitka area, where the season is scheduled to open Monday.
 This was the chief exception to the early opening in the northern section, and extends roughly from Cape Spencer to the southern tip of Baranof Island It is expected that seeding will be adequate; ii not, a postponement of several days would be announced not later than tomorrow. Observers are aboard an a.rplane brought from Anchorage for that purpose, and two FWS patrol vessels.
 There is no question of opening the eastern shore south of Ju- nea,' said Rhode today. (This ex- tends approximately from Midway Island to Petersburg, along the mainland)
 "Production there" he said, where it used to be good, has been absolutely nothing for~the last three years. Because Of deple- ton, it definitely will remain closed. Chances of it's being re- stocked are good, as there is comparatively good showing of tlsh over large drainage

peace talks in the 109-day dock strike would be interrupted if he is prosecuted for contempt in vio- lating a no-picketing injunction.
 The peace talks were resumed only yesterday between waterfront employers and Bridges Interna- tional Longshoremen's and Ware housemen's Union.
 Advised that Attorney General Walter D. Alderman Jr., had been instructed by the Circuit Court to begin contempt action against him today, Bridges told newsmen:
 That would upset negotiations. ILWU isn't going to talk peace with me in the pokey."
 Bridges said the contempt case would have to be settled before talks are resumed. Alderman de- clined to comment.
 Meanwhile, Gov Ingram M. Stainback issued proclamation declaring Hawaii's ports now are open. He called on shipping lines to resume normal commerce.
 The brief proclamation advised that the government had taken over stevedoring operations and cargoes would be handled in all ports despite the strike. Dock work is almost at standstill, however, because union ships crews have refused to work behind ILWU picket lines.
