PACIFIC WHALE
 INCREASE SEEN

Secretary of the Interior Doug las Mckay recently said that . Pacific gray whale census being conducted at Point Loma, Calif- ornia indicates this years count will exceed 1000 whales, as com pared with $50 last year.
 The census is being conducted by the Fish and Wildlife Service in cooperation with the National Park Service as these giant sea mammals pass southward along the California coast in their an nual winter migration.
 The whales move each winter from the far north to the lagoons of lower California to breed. h. terest in the gray whale stems fl om its past economic promin- ence an dthe decimation it suf- fered at the hands of the whaling industry in the late 1800's and
 Far-reaching changes over last years fishing regulations are con- aimed in the 1854 Alaska con- mercial fishery regulations issu- ed recently by the Interior De- partment. However, fishing in the Cook Inlet area will be on the same basis as last year, namely, two days a week.
 Among those changes, to be- come effective 30 days after pub lication in the Federal Register, are: Fifty percent reduction in the take of herring on southeast ern Alaska; voluntary curtail- ment by Bristol Bay operators, fishing for red salmon, of amount of gear to be used in 1854; clos ure of many seining grounds in southeastern Alaska, shutdown of 148 of the 266 trap sites operated in southeastern Alaska in 1853, and elimination of fishing for pink salmon in the Prince Will liam Sound area, except in the Eshamy section.
 "The Departments interest is in a healthy fishing industry for Alaska" Secretary of the Interi- or Mckay stated in announcing the regulations. Tt is vital to the territorial economy.

 Washington Trip

Cy Brewer, manager of Matan- uska Electric Association, return ed to Palmer this past Sunday fol flowing a two-week trip to Wash ington, D. C. where, among sev- eral other activities, he attended the Rural Identification Aminis- . tration managers meeting held March Is.
 During his visit to the capitol city, Brewer learned the joint pole use agreement between the MEA and the City of Palmer has been approved by REA and returned ito the Valley.
 Work on the Bureau of Recla- -snation contract for power was also accomplished by Brewer and ~he said on his return that he be- alieves the contract is now in final form and will be forwarded as soon as new copies are made.
 Tn talking over MEA extension policies, the MEA manager re- -~ported REA officials appeared satisfied with the present policy on extensions in this area.
 The request to the REA for a loan for the Matanuska Electric Association will be held in abey- ance until a study is completed, ~<1e stated.
 Other good news brought back "=%oy Brewer included a report on the status of the Matanuska Tele- ephone Associations purchase of the City of Palmer's telephone system. Early this year when Justine Parks was in Washington, she found the Loans Division ~ataad not even started work on the request. By the time Brewer got there it was out of Loans and is expected to be out of the Engin- ~-eering Division next week. It should be ready for final Loan Division study by the first of ~sthe month, Brewer reported.
 An interesting side-trip was made by Brewer to the Senate Chamber. where the Statehood is sue was being discussed. Enroute Brewer jokingly remarked to Del. -Bartlett's secretary that Alaskans are better shots than the Puerto Ricans and from then on he said, guards appeared at the strangest times each place he went, until ~he finally explained to one of the guards that he was only foolin'".

Lutheran Church
 To Dedicate New
 Pews This Sunday

St. Johns Lutheran Church will dedicate 17 beautiful new pews and matching hyn board this Sunday, March 21, during the II am. service. The church service will be followed by a pot-luck dinner and fellowship, with re- cognition of lay workers.
 Rev. Edward Imme stated this week, This beautiful church furniture is unique in several re- spects. First, they are a demon stration of the beautiful quality of native Alaskan wood. It is not necessary to go Outside for good lumber Every bit of wood in these pews is native Alaskan Spruce.
 They represent the fulfillment of one Christian mans dream of doing something for his church, as the wide boards for the seats and backs were carefully selected years ago by MT. Lawrence Arndt and donated to the church. MT. Arndt was killed in an airplane crash in 1851 and did not live to see the fulfillment of his dream, but the furniture to be dedicated Sunday is a monument to his thoughtfulness and generosity.
 The beautiful wood for the ends is also Alaskan spruce and was purchased locally at the Ket- chikan Spruce Mills yard.
 The work, from rough boards to finished pew, was done entirely by volunteer labor MT. Bud Lie ping granted the facilities of his shop and machinery for blaming and cutting. Detailed plans were drawn by MT. Summer Smith, and and the actual construction was done in the church basement un- der the supervision of MT. Ed Ueeck. The finishing and varnish- ing was done under the super vision of MT. George Allen.
 A total of 680 man hours of vol unteer labor went into the con- struction of the 17 pews from rough boards to the finished pro- duct.

U.S.. British Lawyers
Skirmish Preliminary
To Ship Crash Trial

Justice Department and Brit
ish Transport Commission attor-
neys skirmished yesterday in
Alexandria Federal Court. pre-
liminary to the trial of q $2.S
million damage suit against the
United States Military Sea
Transport Service.
Fhe British Transport Com
mission is one of 252 claimants
against the United States for
damages growing out of the col
lision of the MSTS freighter
Haiti Victory and the British
railway ferry Duke of York in
the North Sea in the early
morning hours of May 6. 1858.
The Duke of York was cut IN
half by the collision. but most
of the passengers and crew MI
raculously escaped. Seven per-
sons were killed. and nine were
injured in the collision. The
trial is set for September 20 be-
fore Federal Judge Albert V.
Bryan in Newport News, Va.
Must Produce Dispositions.
Judge Bryan yesterday ordered
attorneys for the British Trans
port Commission to produce
dispositions it took from officers
and crewmen in an investiga-
ton it conducted following the
accident.
Attorney Edwin Longcope, rep
resenting both the commission
and its parent Ministry OF
Transport, argued that the COM
mission is a private corporation.
He contended that the Ministry
Of Transport. therefore, has no
authority to force the commits
sion to release the crew MEM
bers' statements.
Judge Bryan said he would
impose Sanctions" against the
transport commission If neces-
sary to obtain the dispositions.
American attorneys said this
might mean the commissions
suit would be thrown out with
out going to trial.
Contention Held Ridiculous.
Justice Department spokesman
said the contention that the
transport agency Is non-gov-
eminent corporation ''is ridicu-
lous under the socialized form OF
government in Britain" Thomas
r. McGovern, an attorney in the
Justice Departments admiralty
section, asserted the non-gov-
eminent contention is being
made by the British ito sidestep
the knock-for-knock agreement
Of December, 1882"
Under the agreement, he said,
the United States and Britain
agreed mutually to waive col
iision damages Of government
operated ships because American
and British ships are operating
IN close company all over the
world. A private corporation,
Mr.. McGoveFn pointed out. would
not be subject to the agreement.
The transport commissions
share Of the suit amounts to SIS
million, he said.
Log Must Be Produced.
Judge Bryan also ordered the
United States to produce the log
Of the Haiti Victory for the en-
tire voyage before and after the
collision and directed the British
government to produce as a
witness at the trial the first
officer Of the Duke of York.
American attorneys argued
that the Duke Of York's first
mate was the ships radar officer
and. Mr.. McGovern said he would
attempt to prove by questioning
him that the Duke of York,s
radar had been imperative for
two days before the collision.
The Haiti Victory's radar was
working at the time, spokesman
said.
