Eisenhower Will Not Fire Aide Sherman Adams

WASHINGTON, R The White House said today Presi- dent Eisenhower has no inten- tion of firing Sherman Adams, his chief aide who is a target of House investigators.
 At the same time. Press Secre- tary James c. Hagrty said there will be no White House reply to an earlier question by a reporter as to whether Adams good friend, industrialist Bernard Goldfine, once gave Adams a $70O coat.
 Hagerty also said Adams has rejected reporters request for a news conference at which to question him personally regard ing his relations with Goldfine.
 Adams acknowledged yester- day that on three occasions he contacted federal agencies re- garding Goldfine business troub- les with the agencies. Adams said Goldfine got no favored treatment from the agencies in return, and that he-Adams- sought none.
 Adams also acknowledged that Goldfine paid hotel bills for him during a period when the veal thy Boston industrialist was in trouble before the Federal Trade Commission and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 He said, however, it was only a matter of accepting hospitality for an old friend, and he had thought Goldfine kept the hotel quarters on a permanent basis.
 The affair had prompted Rep. Peter F. Mack Jr. O-IlD to say Eisenhower should fire Adams. Mack said that would be in keep ing with an Eisenhower campaign pledge for a government "clean as a hounds tooth"
 Asked if he could say whether Eisenhower has an intention of firing Adams, Hagerty shot back:
 "Sure I can. The answer is of course not"

1858 May Be Last Year For Alaska Salmon Packers

SEATTLE, LR - Washington State Fisheries Director Milo Moore said today 1858 may be the last year for many of the large salmon packers in Alaska. He said mo fish'was the reason.
 Moore said the year also may end the annual run of the Wash irigton and Alaska purse seine fleet to Kodiak Island and Port Moller areas in Alaska.
 Predictions are coming true, !" Moore said in a statement, "the unregulated Japanese high seas salmon fishery in the Aleutian area harvesting immature sal mon during the first or second year of their life cycle is now be- ginning to show adversely in Japanese landings as well as our own"
 Moore said the United States so far 'has presented only a token resistance to the Japanese intercepting North American stocks of salmon"
 Its about time people in high places pay some attention to the problem if we intend to sty in the fish business" he said.
 The fisheries director called for restricting imports of fish products caught under conditions forbidden to U. s. fishermen.
 "QD would help protect the in- herent rights of our fishermen and would eliminate wasteful practices by which other nationals (absorbing our market deplete the food resources of the high seas," Moore said.

President Asks
 Creation of New Aviation Agency

WASHINGTON, R IT. Presi- dent Eisenhower today asked Congress to create a new federal aviation agency in an effort to avert air collisions in this jet age.
 The Eisenhower plan calls for authority to Incorporate addition al units into the new agency.
 That leaves room for it to take over integration of military air traffic with the general flying pattern. Presumably by execu- tive order the President could transfer from the Defense. Depart ment to the new agency the units exerting control over military flights.
 Eisenhower, in a special message, proposed the existing Civil Aeronautics Administration be abolished and it's functions be absorbed by the new agency.
 Recent midair collisions of aircraft, occasioning tragic losses of human life, have emphasized the need for a system of air traf- fife management which will pre- vent, within the limits of human ingenuity, a recurrence of such accidents" Eisenhower said.
 The President recommended the proposed new agency 'tbe given full and paramount authority over the use of aircraft of air space over the United States and it's territories, except in circum stances of military emergency or urgent military necessity"
 Eisenhower asked for enact ment of legislation at this session and at the earliest practicable date.
