Imports Torpedo Tuna Industry
In Sea of Red Ink, u. S. Is Told

Iother sections Of the American
trade said the industry wants the
Government to put import quotas
on tuna and tuna-like fish allowed
in this country, and also impose
tariffs of about 48 per cent on
canned tuna in brine, As per cent
on tuna in oil and about 20 per
cent on fresh or frozen tuna. The
tariffs without import quotas. they
said, would not be enough.
Other Side Heard.
The United States now collects
a As per cent tariff on tuna in oil.
121a per cent on tuna in brine
and no duty on fresh or frozen
tuna.

The Tariff Commission must
decide whether the increasing i'm

consumer prices of tuna-have
hurt the American industry so
badly that the United States can

out of international tariff agree

Rare Operation Replaces Part

At George Washington. Univer-

surgeon said at least one such
abdominal aorta graft had been
performed in Detroit and that a
French surgeon described a sue
cessful graft recently.
Doctors called the operation

HOUSTON. Tex, Nov. 18.-John
James Smith, g., is recovering
here today from a rare abdominal
operation. probably one of three
in all medical history.
An abdominal section of Mr..
Smiths aorta. the main artery
from the heart, was removed 13
days ago and replaced with a five
inch segment from the aorta of a
26-year-old person fatally injured
in a traffic crash.
Because doctors here do not
want to excite him, Mr.. Smith-a
quiet little painter-has not been
told of the rarity and danger of
the operation. He has a weak
heart, and surgeons said they per-
formed the operation only to save
his life.

It took longer than the first

Stinky said, "The motor armature

when he again disappeared just

New Navy JET Fighter
Equipped With Skis
For Wafer Landings
By John A. Giles
Sror Sioff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Nov. 18.-The
Navy has new seaplane jet
fighter, the Convair XF2Y.

retary of the Navy for Air. dis
closed the new craft here yes
terday. It's developers believe it
eventually will make "all waters
accessible to the fleet ready-pre-
pared landing areas" Mr.. Flo
berg's was the first official an
nouncement of the new plane.
about which bits and pieces of
information have been printed.
It marks the first known appli-
cation of the "hydro-ski" to a
combat aircraft. The hydro-ski
is an adaptation of water skis
the kind that have been boon
to various Florida Chambers of
Commerce. But it does not in
corporate any floating character

and taxi on the skis to the waters
edge. Then. rolling on small
beaching wheels in the skis, the
ski-plane will roll up the beach
without ground assistance and
taxi to its parking space. The
commercial application of the sys-
tenn is expected to bring airlines
closer to cities situated on rivers
and harborS.
Mr.. Floberg told a luncheon
meeting at the Wings Club the
contracts to produce the new
plane mark the re-entry of the
fighter plane into the water-based
field.
The plane, being manufactured
by the Consolidated Vultee Air
craft Co., is scheduled for it's first
flight test in the near future but
probably will not become opera
tional for sometime.
Not a Replacement Job.
Mr.. Floberg went to great
lengths to emphasize that the
Navy does not expect the new
craft to replace any type of ship,
conventional craft or seaplane.
He listed these advantages of
the new seaplanes:
/. They could be based in for
ward areas where there is pro-
tected water before land bases
could be constructed or where
they could not be built.
2. They may provide fighter

OPS Changes Policy,
Will Provide Lists Of
Non-WiIIfuI vioIators

The Office of Price Sterilization
announced yesterday a new policy
of making public the names of
businessmen who agree to repay
overcharges after unintentional
violations of price ceilings.
It will apply to such cases aris-
ing after May /.
Price Director Ellis Arnall
pointed out that sellers have. had
ample opportunity to become ia
miliar with the price control law
and its regulations. The Defense
Production Act became effective
September 8, 1850. and price CELL
ings went into effect more than
IA months ago.
News Groups Urged Change.
The change in policy has been
urged by two newspaper groups.
They are the Committee on Free
dom Of Information of the Asso-
iciated Press Managing Editors
Association and the Freedom of
Information Committee of the
American Society of Newspaper
Editors.
AS in the past, OPS will con-
tinue to announce settlement OF
cases where wilfulness or negli-
Igence is indicated and the violator
pays damages above the simple
overcharge. It also will continue
to announce the filing in court OF
civil or criminal actions by the
Justice Department.
Names to be in Public Book.
Mr.. Arnall said formal news re-
leases will not ordinarily be issued
in the settlement of "non-willful'
cases. The facts, he said. will be
placed in a loose-leaf book in OPS
District Offices and will be avail
able to the public.
In "single-damage" settlement
with businessman for an unin-
territorial overcharge, there is res
titution of the overcharge amount
but no punitive damages.

Elmer Davis Chides Press
And Radio as Superficial
BY the Associated Press

BOSTON, April 12.-News Com
mentator Elmer Davis tonight
criticized the American press and
radio for what he described as its
superficial" treatment of many
events affecting the national and
world situations.
The former head of the Office
Of War Information said, in an
address prepared for the annual
dinner of the Boston Press Club,
that too much of the news being
presented is lone dimensional
when the truth is apt to be in
three dimensions or more"
Mr.. Davis listed as the principal
shortcomings of press and radio a
too avid desire for objectivity,
overemphasis on speed, and a ten
dency to paint up a story so as to
make a good deadline.
Blind objectivity. he said, fire.
quently results in superficial treat
ment of a story which required

Contempt Of Congress,
Conviction Record
In Unimpressive
BY the Assoeioied Press

The Governments record of
success in getting people put in
jail for defying congressional COM
mittees adds up to something
short of spectacular.
The Justice Department, which
handles prosecutions, yesterday
made public a tally of contempt
citations which showed:
Going back to 1947, the House
or Senate. acting on recommen-
dations Of committees. has cited
155 persons for contempt of Con-
gress. Only 43 of these have been
convicted. Eighty have been
acquitted in the courts. Thirty
two cases, almost all of them
originating in the Senate Crime
Committee, still are pending.
Red PrObers Lead.
The House Un-American Activi-
ties Committee, SO of whose wit
nesseS have been cited, led all
other committees in controversy
with witnesses. The score: Con-
.victions, IS: acquittals. So; pend
ing. one.
Many of the convictions, includ-
ing the Hollywood Ten" came in
the days when fewer witnesses, in
refusing to answer questions,
raised the defense of possible self
incrimination.
Exceptions Found.
The general rule recently has
been for the courts to free de-
fendants who said that to answer
questions about Communist con-
nections might incriminate them.
There have, however, been some
exceptions when the courts found
that witnesses failed properly to
invoke this privilege.
Next to the Un-American
Activities Committee, the Senate
Crime Committee has been most
active in citing witnesses for con-
tempt.
Forty-eight crime committee
witnesses have been cited. Seven
of them have been convicted and
Ii acquitted. Twenty-eight cases
