TMO Killed
In Tractor
accidents

A 50-year-old farmer died
Monday after his tractor over
turned and crushed him at his
12-acre Woodfield farm.
A similar accident Saturday
resulted in the death of William
Bryan Phillips, ir., Is, of Boyds.
William T. Flynn, jr., so, died
at Montgomery County General
Hospital minutes after he was
rushed there by ambulance
about 2 pm. Monday.
Montgomery County Police
Officer William Rector Heflin
said the victim was moving a
meadow when the tractor he
was driving became stuck in a
ditch.
Flynn brought a second trac-
tor, hooked it to the first, and
had just begun to tow it from
the ditch when the second trac
tor turned over on him.
The steering wheel of the
tractor caught the victim by the
neck and choked him, Heflin
said. Flynn's wife, Mary, sum.
moned help from a neighbor, C.
M. King, who called the ambu.
lance. Mr.. Flynn was uncon-
scious when the ambulance ar.
rived and never regained con
seriousness.
Flynn had lived at the farm
for about two years, during
which time he had worked with
well-drilling firm. He is sur.
vived by a married daughter and
four sons, two of whom are in
the service. One son, Bernard,
lives at the Woodfield farm, and
another, David, lives and works
in Gaithersburg.
Funeral arrangements were
pending Monday evening.
Police said the 15-lear-old vic
tim last Saturday was found
pinned to the ground when the
tractor flipped over after APP
parently striking an embank-
ment.
The boys guardian, Harry
r. Ahalt said the youth had
driven the tractor about half a
mile to the Ahalt mailbox and
was returning with some letters
when the accident occurred.
There were no witnesses to
the accident. The youth was
found by Lynwood Putnam, 16,
of Boyds. He said he found his
friend while walking along the
road on the way to the store.

 From the experiences of many wtioc,e pets mySteriously disap- pear and forever vanish and from our own observations. it would seem that there is urgent need for the establishing of a branch of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals here in the Kodiak area. It would fill a long felt need and could aminister hu- namely to the needs of all animals ands.prosecute those who maltreat them or take the law in their own hands.
 BuSkin was with us many years. He was a good doggie, always a gentleman and a kindly fellow. as all who knew him will testify. He had a host of friends and we miss him more than we can tell in this, perhaps. our final tribute to one of Gods little creatures, truly mans best friend, who gave a full measure of devotion and who was faithful to the last.

dova in an effort to enlist the sup port of Pacific Coast states in preserving the salmon fisheries, according to word received from Portland, where Bob has been gett- ing in a few ticks on this vital sub ject.
 He talked to Gov. Edmund Brown of California and former senator Knowland, and also ad- dressed a committee of the Cali fornia Senate. It appears he made headway with all of these.
 Logan was very critical of the expand e d operations of the Russian fishing fleet, which ap- pears to present an even bigger threat to the fisheries than does Japan. Herbert Lundy, Editor of the Editorial page of the Oregon ian, quoted him as saying that the Soviet Union now has the biggest 'jShing feet in the world-12,3 motorized ssels at last authoriz- ed count, in 1956-and plan to expand the freezing of fish on the high seas to two billion pounds annually by 1865. It also has fishery research and mana,een .,nt program he says, involving 30 organizations and thousands of scientists
 According to the article. Russia'S big factorv-traw'er and mother ships are equal to thoe.e of any western country. The Soviet high seas fishery expanded from 3.3 billion pounds in 1928 to 5.6 billion pounds in 1856. He eaars it has gone much higher since.
 According to.Lundy, Sen. Logan has it from a Chinese source that the first two shipments from the Russian fleet off Bristol Bay went directly to Red China. "In effect" he is quoted as saying, "our fish are being used to hold the Russian Chinese alliance together"
 Logan pointed out to the Cali fornia and Oregon ~bigwigs facts that we are thoroughly conversant with here. Ever since the war. ha said, the Japanese have been Stepp- ing up their salmon netting opera tions in the North Pacific. They employ, he said, mile-long, drift ing mesh screens which guide the immature salmon into gillnets and can make no distinction between salmon spawned in Alaska, British Columbia and the Columbia River system, and those spawned in Asia and Siberia.
 With depleted fish stocks in Alaskan waters, and while Alas ka's 1000 licensed fishermen sweat it out. Logan stated, the Japanese last year sold three quarters of million cases of sal mon in the port of Seattle.
 The Senator made the observa- tion that on almost any Friday, fish from Iceland will be found on the menu for the men at the mill tary bases in Alaska-he named Elmendorf, Ladd Field, Kodiak and Fort Richardson.
 We had a letter last week from another former Kodiak resident. and fomer editor of Kodiak's one time daily-Tte Kodiak Island and North Pacific News. Dick Whittak- CT writes from Portland. whepa he is attending Northwestern College of Law Upon graduation he in- tends to return to Alaska. He is currently special agent for the Board of M edic al Examiners. checking malpractice in Oregon. He also says he spent a session with the Oregon Legislature as clerk for the Senate Education Committee.
