The voyage of the 38-foot
ketch Windbird from Seattle
to Kodiak, skippered by DR..

celled early this week because
of a bad storm and the vessel

he had abandoned plans for
completing the 1,500 mile
voyage this year.
DR.. johnson said that he,
Mrs. johnson and their son
Bob would return to Kodiak
by plane.
Earlier he had announced
that the three would sail the
wind driven vessel direct

to shore radio was installed

Fog Slows Search
For Aeronca Sedan

Burl Clymer, 80. local pilot,
flying a 4-place Aernoca has
been unreported since late
Tuesday after taking off from
Port Williams for a flight to
Chignik.
The local Alaska Communi-
cation System maintained a
24-hour watch with Kodiak Is
land canneries all week in an
effort to locate the missing
pilot and the red and cream
colored plane.
Clymer took off from Port
Williams at $40 pm Tuesday
with so loaves of bread for a
floating cannery at Chignik.
There were no passengers
with him.
Late yesterday the Coast
Guard Air Detachment at
Kodiak Naval Station stood by
and awaited orders from
COMSAR 2, and a break in
the week-long foggy weather,
to begin an air search.
1t was reported locally that
the 10th Rescue Squadron at
Elmendorf Field had been
alerted as it was possible
Clymer may be down in some
small bay or cove on the A
laskan Peninsula.
Local pilots believe Clymer
may have plotted his course
from Port Williams across
Shelikof Straits and down the
shore line Of the peninsula to
Chignik. Another possible
route would be to follow the
Shelikof side of Kodiak Is
land to the southern end and
then cross to the peninsula.
The plane carries a radio
but it was reported to be out
of commission. Communica-
ton checks with canneries on
the island and along the main
land failed to reveal any sign
! of the pilot or the plane.
One local pilot expressed
the belief that he had en-
countered heavy weather
and had landed in a small bay
or cove to await better flying
conditions.

Shipping Tie Up E nds,
Alaska Traffic Begins

San Francisco (P) - The
CLIO Maritime Radio operators
returned to work at midnight
Thursday ending a six-day
strike that crippled non-milit-
airy shipping on the Pacific
Coast.
The terms between the ship
owners and radio men were
not announced.
In Seattle the Alaska Steam
ship Company announced the
sailing of the Aleutian as
scheduled. The Denali, due to
sail Wednesday for Kodiak
and other Alaskan points, was
cancelled and no immediate
announcement of it's sailing
was given, Orrin Kimball,
local ASC agent. said yester-
day.
II expect to receive a freigh-
ter schedule late today" Kim =
ball said yesterday. The Coast
al Monarch, freighter, was al
so scheduled to leave Seattle
Wednesday with cargo for
Kodiak.
The Denali was the first
scheduled passenger vessel
for Kodiak since last fall.
Meanwhile, one local gro
Gerry store began rationing
potatoes but had not put a
limit on other groceries. Other
grocery stores reported short
ages on some items.
San Francisco (P) Ship
owners and CLIO radio opera
tors held peace talks this
week in hopes of ending the
strike which has virtually
crippled non-military shipping
on the Pacific Coast.
The ARA is asking a $40
monthly pay increase for
some 700 members. That
would up their monthly base
wage to $415. The Pacific
Maritime Association, the
employers group, offers a
monthly base of $500.

Kodiak Pilot Overdue On Chigni|k Flight
Karluk Opens,
Chignik Closes

The Chignik district was
closed to all commercial fish
ing at 6 pm last night until
further notice. The announce
ment of the closure was re-
ceived here by Roy Lindsey,
Fish and Wildlife Service
representative from the Re-
gional Director of the FWS.
The Karluk district opened
to commercial fishing at 6 am
Thursday. 1t was closed last
Saturday at 6 pm because of
the poor showing of salmon
and because the weir at Kar-
LUX was far behind that of
last year.
Lindsey sent a wire to all
canneries around the island
advising them of the opening
of the Karluk district and the
closing of Chignik.
The increase in the number
of commercial fishermen is
threatening to deplete the
salmon supply, Clarence
Rhode, regional director for
the Fish and Wildlife Service,
said this week.
ALTHOUGH the number of
boats has increased there GER
tainly is not any increase in
the number of salmon,
Rhode declared.
He pointed out that in
dividual catches will be
smaller and many operators
will not find the fishing pro-
fitable. He also predicted that
it may be necessary for the
FWS to impose more controls
to insure the sufficient escape
ment of salmon up streams to
spawn so that fishing may be
continued through the years.
The alarming trend of de-
pletion in recent years in
many areas must be halted.
The increase in fishing gear,
especially in the gillnet
fisheries over last years in
fated volume is clearly
evidenced by present over
concentration of gear, Albert
M. Day, Director FWS, an.
nounced.

Not Much Hope
For Federal Aid
Says E. McCrath

ST. PETERSBURGH, Fla, Dec.
6-tP)-U. S. Commissioner of
Education Earl McGrath says the
chances of federal aid for educa-
ton are none too good at pre-
sent.
He said the reason is because
of the complicated issues of ma
tional policy" which were raised
during congressional debate on
the subject. McGrath spoke vest
erday 70 the Southern Association
of Colleges and Secondary Schools
at Miami.
The commissioned went on to
say that the general cause of fed-
eral aid shouldn't be abandoned,
but he added that il might be
wise at the present time to con-
centrate on getting federal help
for urgently needed school build
ings.

OF the Audubon Society told me:
Every sanctuary warden is in
terested in the outcome Of this
case because il will show just how
much they will be backed up in
their attempts to protect non
game birds. These wardens do
their jobs mostly because of their
love of the profession. It has al
ways been an uphill fight TO pro
tect these birds. Even in the past
few years | have been happy to
see the return to the Keys of some
birds that we're being wiped out. !"
Each Audubon member stressed
that as soon as birds are not pro.
tected by state law and wardens,
they become extinct.
