Price Control Tying
 Up 70 Fish Buying 5eows

Some 70 fish buyers scows are being pulled in from the fishing grounds in Southeastern Alaska today.
 This word was received here by Andy Barlow, executive secretary of the United Trollers of Alaska. The news came from the princi- pal fishing ground buyers at Ket- chikan, who said that due to reg ulations placed upon them by the Office of Price Stabilization, they would be unable to meet the un- ions price of 27k cents a pound for echoes.
 This means" Barlow said. that the buyers on the fishing grounds have been forced out of business for the remainder of the. season which does not close until Sept. 20."
 No Minimums
 Barlow said that under this years contract between the trol- iers and the fish buyers no mini mum prices were set due to the Office of Price Stabilization being uncertain whether or not a ceil- ing price would be placed on fresh and frozen fish.
 Later both the buyers and troll lers were notified that no ceil- ing would be placed on canned salmon in Alaska for 1851 due to the lateness of the season, Barlow said.
 On May the buyers and fish ermen met in Juneau to sign a contract passing the prices of sal mon on the competitive board at Ketchikan. which would be the minimum pride paid in all South- eastern ports The contract pro- vided for a differential of one half cent less north of Wrangell and four cents less on large red salmon and three cents less on all other salmon as packing charge from tfie grounds t6 the docks.
 Up to this time the trollers have been receiving 27 cents on the dock for echoes, making the fishing ground price "A cents, " Barlow said. ''The heavy runs of echoes have created a difficult situation for the fresh fish buyers who in the past have had fair market for frozen cohos.
 With the demand for. canned fish and higher marketing con- ditions, the buyers have been forced to turn over the bulk of these fish to the canneries at cost price.
 "Then like a thunder bolt the Office of Price Stabilization chan ges it's mind and notifies the dealers that a ceiling price on all canned salmon in Alaska is in ef- feet and roll hack on red sal mon from S29 to SPA a case.
 Naturally this decision so late in the season upset the buyers operations" Barlow declared.
 The union secretary pointed out that thousands of cases Of salmon have already been put up by the canners and placed the ground buyers in position where it was impossible for them to meet OPS demands

 BERLIN. = I have just spent an evening behind the Iron Cur tain. It's not hard to do here in Berlin where no guards patrol the line between the Russian and Am- erican sectors and where, if you flash White House press card and look reasonably important, you can attend even the most ex- elusive of the Communist youth shows.
 Berlin tonight is city Of vivid dramatic contrast - miles of bunting and flags everywhere, flags of every nation but partic- ularly and ironically the flags Of peace. Sandwiched in between all most every national flag is the blue and white emblem of peace. Standing out against the gaunt bomb-gutted ruins of Berlin, they made a genuine appeal to the tired population which never wants to see war again.
 There were other contracts. A Czech youth orchestra in immac- ulate blue and white uniforms played before the pillars of Ber- lin's bombed-out opera house. They played well and sang well. At one side stood shiny new Czech buses made in the Skoda Munitions Works. One thousand of these
