Drive to Save

KODIAK, Alaska, April 9
(AP).-A four-day mission of
mercy to save the life of an
obscure Russian fisherman was
rapidly nearing completion to-
day.
Evgenij Ivanovich Gneushev,
partially paralyzed five days
ago when he tumbled into the
hold of a Russian fishing vessel
on the Boring Sea, was uncon-

The 23-year-old Soviet fish
erman was aboard the United
States Coast Guard Storis, en-
route to Cold Bay, Alaska, at
the tip of the Alaska Peninsula.
The Storis was expected to
arrive at Cold Bay during the
day. Mr.. Gneushev will be
transferred to a Coast Guard
plane at Cold Bay for a $50
mile flight to Anchorage and

Mr.. Gneushev was trans

The Storis and the Soviet
trawler met at Akun Bay at
midday yesterday, but the
transfer of the Russian from

Guard cutter was delayed some
four hours by bad weather.

Everything. as far as I

Senator Capehart, Republi-

But Senator Capehart said
that II the details were made

tors paying different salaries

He joined Senator Dirksen in
contending that discord would
result as one employee learned
what another was paid.
Asks Publicity for All

Senators-or none-should dis
close their payrolls because a
partial disclosure "does not re-
veal a true picture"

Senator Lausche also insisted
that 1.-THE discomfort Senators
would suffer from making their
Office payrolls public is incon-
sequential to the distrust that
is created by not revealing the
salaries"
The debate was born of dis
closures that various members

have. in some instances, rented
their own property to the Gov

BY EARL HI. VOSS
Star stan Writer

The United States is proving
by deeds its determination to
stand on a policy of "firmness
with reasonableness" in the
Berlin crisis.
American officials heatedly
dismiss Soviet charges that
recent United States actions
have been provocative" but
they point to four recent moves
which illustrate the United
State determination to go ahead
exercising its rights whatever
the Soviet threats.
Flight Over Ceiling
First there was the flight
into Berlin and out again of
the C130 turbo-prop TRANSPORT
at an altitude $4,000 feet above
the 10,000-foot ceiling Moscow
has been trying to enforce.
Second there was the briS-
Ting note to the Soviet Foreign
Office declaring Americas in
tention to continue to use in
ternational and friendly pow
ers' airspace even though this
involves approaching Soviet
frontiers.
Third was the instant retail
alton on travel restrictions last
week, when the State Depart
ment bottled up Soviet diplo-
mats in Washington to the
same extent American diplo-
mats were restricted in Russia.
There was a display of rea-
sonableness and humanity in
the mercy mission of a United
States Coast Guard vessel of
Alaska to rush a seriously in
jured Soviet seaman to an
Alaska hospital.
In the crisis atmosphere
caused by Soviet threats to
Western occupation forces in
Berlin, the fight of the C-130
into West Berlin is rated the
most impressive.
Russia has long tried to es-
tablish a 10,000-foot ceiling and
has for the most part succeeded
in practice-because it has been
unnecessary and actually I'M
safe for older American trans
ports to fly higher.
Soviet and East German jets
thus have had unrestricted and
unimpeded access to the air
over the three Western corri-
doris above 10000 feet.
No Trip Planned Yet
With the advent of the turbo-
prop aircraft, however, the
United States has need of fly
ing above 10000 feet.
Red fighters buzzed the plane
on its trips in and out. But the
United States asserts it will
continue to fly more planes into
Berlin above 10000 feet, and
will accept no Soviet limitation
on access.
