National Win Puts U.S..
In Shape for O|ympics

NEW YORK, Nov. II (AP)-
The United States information
al jumping team-its sights set
Squarely on next years Olym-
pics-headed for Toronto today
and the Royal Winter Fair
Horse Show hoping to score an
other sweep.
Capt. Bill Steinkraus and his
riders already have won the
team title in the Harrisburg
and National shows, and if
they can keep up their streak,
Toronto could make it three in
a row.
But we're all pretty tired, ="
said Steinkraus, "just like the
riders on the other teams. We
have one day to travel and one
day to rest before the Toronto
show starts Friday.
"Well have the same four
riders-myself, Hugh Wiley,
Frank Chapot and George Nor
ris. We may make a change or
two in our horses, but we're not
sure yet. Ksar D'Esprit with
whom Steinkraus won the Ger
man title last summer was
nicked and is slightly hurt.
Nothing serious, though.

Canada Finishes Second
The National wound up an
eight-day stand in Madison
Square Garden last night with
the United States winning the
team title with 126 points to
II Tor Second-place Canada.
Steinkraus was the victor in
the individual race with 46
points.
The final event was the Prix
de Nations, always the top test
in any horse show in the
world. It demands a combina-
ton of jumping ability and
speed from the entire team.
Canada won it by a narrow
margin with 1874 faults to 22H
for the second-place United
States Argentina was third
with 281a, Brazil fourth with
1914, and Mexico fifth with 46.

finish of the race to be q
sixteenth of a mile farther
down the homestretch, giving
the field a straightaway OF
,345 feet. However, this fin
fish point would have caused
the horses to start too close
to the far turn to assure all
IL runners an equal oppor-
tunity to attain desired posi-
ton before heading into the
bend, the trainers felt.
Each of them, Schapiro said,
expressed q preference for the
longer run to the first turn
rather than to the wire at the
end of the race. In addition,
use of a longer stretch would
have made the actual distance
to be run a sixteenth of a mile
longer than the prescribed
mile-and-a-half distance al
though the timing, of course
would be for IL furlongs.

The days racing got off on
an informal, cheerful note with

with a spectacular, driving

Confirms Continued Fight For Berlin Rights
By JOHN N. HICHToWER

WASHINGTON, R-The NATO foreign ministers council Saturday confirmed it's unanimous deter imitation to maintain the freedom of the people of West Berlin" and the Vests position there despite Soviet custer demands.
 At the same time the 15-nation group expressed in a final com munique "its desire to see out standing problems solved by ne- gotiation."
 / The foreign ministers ended a three-day meeting held in Wash ington for the first time in 10 years to commeorate the 10th anniversary of the signing of the Atlantic Pact in Washington, April 4, 1949.
 The NATO conference was pre- ceded by Berlin crisis talks among the foreign ministers of the United States, Great Britain, France and West Germany.
 Among the principles which the council endorsed with its asser- ton of full agreeent" on broad policy lines are those which hold:
 l. Any Western concession must bring a corresponding Soviet con- cession.
 3. The Western powers must not barter away their right to be in Berlin as conquerors in order to obtain an agreement with Russia to remain there.
 3. There can be no new military agreement or freeze which would upset the present power balance in Europe.
 With respect to other parts of the world, the communique said the council considered that Com munist pressures at many points constitute "a threat not only to member nations but also to many other free countries, including some whose independence has only recently been established"

IMagnuson Will Ask That Coast Guard
 Board Russian Ships Fishing Near US.

on the present status of the bill, which has been sent to the In- terior Department.
 However, Magnuson said he be- lieved it would be approved, but might find a less welcome recep- ton by the State Department.
 "If the Secretary of State would take this up directly, it could be settled overnight" Magnuson said.
 George Johansen of Seattle, see- retary- treasurer of the Alaska Fishermen's Union, suggested countering the new Russian threat by subsidizing a fleet of U. s. yes sels to fish off the Russian coast,
 Magnuson said be believed the Russians would board any Amer iean ships fishing off the coast of Kamchatka.
 Many witnesses, including Alas ka Governor William A. Egan, said they had decided reluctantly that the only way to persuade the Japanese to cooperate in salmon conservation is to pass the import ban.
 Noel Hemendinger of Washing ton, D. C., counsel to the United States-Japan trade council, led the fight against the restrictive legis- lation.
 He contended American import CTS and distributors of Japanese canned salmon would be hurt more than the Japanese by the bill. Hemendinger charged the bill was designed ''to compel compliance by Japan with measures which the United States may unilater- ally deem reasonable"
 Under probing by Rep. Thomas Pelly R-Wash) Hemendinger said the council he represents has been registered with the Justice De partment as a foreign agency.
 The hearing was before Mag nuSon and Sen. Bob Bartlett. Sit~ ting with them were Sen. Jackson Alaska Governor Egan and Rep resentatives Pelly and Thor Tol- lefson R-Wash).

'Appeasement Will Lead to Russian
 Domination Ike
By MARVIN L. ARRowsMITH

GETTYSBURG, Pa, R - Pres ident Eisenhower asserted Satur- day any appeasement of Russia in the Berlin crisis only would en- bolden the Reds to speed up their world domination drive.
 While cautioning against ap- peasement as dishonorable and the most dangerous course the West ern powers could pursue, the Pres ident continued to hold the door open to a possible summit confer ence with the Soviets.
 In major foreign policy speech at the Gettysburg College Spring Convocation, Eisenhower said the United States and it's allies want negotiated settlement rather than war.
 ''They seek to substitute the rule of law for the rule of force, " Eisenhower told his outdoor audi ence of about 4,00O at the college.
 Eisenhower called slis speech an effort to put across to the Amer ican public "the international facts of today's life" Those facts, he added, make it imperative that the worlds free nations unite to resist the spread of imperialistic Communism.
 "A free America" Eisenhower said, "can exist only as part of a free world, and a free world can continue to exist only as it meets the rightful demands of people for security, progress and oppor- tunity."
 He called the Soviet move to drive the Allies out of West Berlin "a part of the continuing effort of the Communist conspiracy to attain one overriding goal: world domination"

State Planning Comm. Proposal Passes House; To Specify Improvements

JUNEAU, R - A bill propos- ing the creation of a state plan ming commission to study capital improvements in Alaska passed the House Friday on 297 vote.
 The measure calls for a five man commission appointed by the Governor to report on needed cap ital improvements. The report would be submitted to the next regular session of the Legislature in January.
 The Legislature then could pro pose submitting a bonding pro- posal. which would specify the items to be financed, to a vote of the people.
 The planning commission pro- posal was offered as an alterna- tive to a 5O-million- dollar blank check measure which would have been financed by a 30-year bond ing program.

SEATTLE, R - Dispatch of a Coast Guard cutter to investigate Russian fishing activities in Alas ka's Boring Sea was advocated Friday by Sen. Warren c. Mag nuson O-Wash).
 T am going to ask that the Coast Guard board those vessels and ask the Russians, politely but firmly, exactly what they are do- ing" Magnuson said at sub committee hearing of the Senate Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee.
 The remarks came as Magnuson told witnesses and congressman att tending the hearing that the Navy had informed his Washington of flee Russian aircraft are flying patrols over the Soviet fishing fleet.
 The air patrols are increasing, Magnuson said, and Sen. Henry M. Jackson D-Wash) added:
 "We have reason to believe the Russians are fishing for more than fish"
 The announcement highlighteo a day of testimony in which wit ness after witness demanded pass age of legislation aimed at pro- tecting the Bristol Bay, salmon run.
 The bill would prohibit impor- tation of salmon from any coun- try not following conservation methods practiced by the United States. Such legislation would strike a telling blow to the huge Japanese salmon market in this country. Japanese fishing fleets have been held responsible for the Cecimation of AlaSka's valuable salmon resources.
 Magnuson said--American long shoremen may boycott fish ship ment from Japan as result of that nations refusal to stop fishing for Alaska-spawned salmon.
 ''The longshoremen may feel so keenly they may refuse to unload Japanese canned salmon," the sen- ator added.
 Donald McKernan, head of the commercial fisheries division of the Interior Department, told the committee he could not comment

Audience and Players ' Delight In Zany Playoff In Basketball Antics

It would be hard to decide who had the most fun - the audience or the players - in the big double header between the Teachers and the Parents, played last Friday night at the School for the bene- fit of the School Band Festival. It would be equally hard to deter mine which team has the most aches and pains today, as both the Tottering Teachers and tn e Petered Out Papas played with all they had, and then some.
 The final scores were 6-12, in favor of the Mothers team, and 27-26 in favor of the male Teach CTS team.
 A capacity crowd filled the gym and the gate receipts all went into the Festival Fund for the Nome School Band, which contrib uted poppy music throughout the games.
 The frivolous teachers were gayly uniformed in multi i-colored balloon bloomers and dustcaps all daintily trimmed in lace, while the Mothers were in maternity blouSes.
 A 'rousing cheer section was led by Emma Cameron, Olaf Halvor- son, Helen Dunbar and Carolyn CoonS.
