Super-Trawler For Boring Sea Urged
 By US. Fishermen

SEATTLE, R-A group of Pac- fife Northwest fishing industry leaders yesterday urged federal construction of a large, refriger- ated super trawler to compete with Russian fishermen in the Boring Sea.
 James G. Talbot of Bellingham, chairman of the industry group, said construction of the U. s. super -trawlers was the only all formative to "losing our historic fishing rights in the Boring Sea by default"
 The fishing leaders suggested the proposed trawlers be equip ped with a research laboratory, with the government subsidizing operations during the first few years, then later applying catch profits to paying off the cost of the ship.
 Talbot and his group said there has been increasing concern among US. fishermen since the Russians moved a large fishing fleet into the Boring Sea last year. Japanese fishermen have been taking bottomfish and king crab in the Boring for years.
 While the Russins thus far ap- parently have devoted their ef- forts to bottomfish, American fishermen fear the day when the Russians might decide to take salmon from dwindling Alaskan stocks, industry spokesmen said.

Bartlett Protests Ban On Alaska Jade PrOcesSed In West Germany

WASHINGTON - This week Sen. Bartlett protested the failure of the Treasury Department to effect an agreement with the Fed eral German Republic, which would allow the re-entry into the United States of Alaska jade pro- cessed in Germny.
 The problem came about when Alaskans engaged in the jade in dustry sent mined Alaska jade to West Germany to be processed from the raw material, and re- turned as finished products, rang ing from finished stones to fig urineS.
 The Alaska Senator said that the United States Customs Office in Seattle has not permitted the re-entry of the Alaska jade from the Federal German Republic since existing regulations pro- hibit the importation into the United States of jade from Com munist countries. The agreement recommended with Germany would have German authorities certify that given piece of Alaska jade was not produced be- hind the Iron Curtain. Similar agreements have been made with the governments where jade-cut- ting is an expert trade, including Hong Kong and Taiwan, but the United States is still in the pro- cess of negotiation with West Germany.

Radioactive Tag May Be Used for Study of Small Fish MigratiOns

WASHINGTON, R - Plans to use slightly radioactive metal tag as an aid in studying migra- tion of some species of fish were announced yesterday by the h. terior Department.
 The new tag would be used in studies of species caught in such quantities, such as herring and menhaden, that customary tag ging methods are impractical.
 The Atomic Energy Commits sion has issued license to the bureau for use of the new meth cd, in which the tag is inside the fish.
 An Interior Department off, cial said the likelihood of any member of the general public ever coming in contact with a tag or part of a tag would be practically nonexistent. And even if this did happen, he said, the tags are of such low-level acti- vity there would be no hazard.
 Knowledge of where fish trav- el is one of the things necessary for intelligent harvest of the crops of the sea.

man, giving up only 3 hits and 2 walks while striking out 16 Red Sox batters.
 League president Curly Wilson stated: 'The season was very sue cessful and the work accomplished by the hard working managers, coaches, mothers and fathers was outstanding. I think everyone will agree with me when I say that the most outstanding contribution made by one person was by League Secretary Charles Mac" Mcintyre. Besides the piles of paper work needed to keep the league running smoothly, Mac found time to man. age the Bears, organize and assist in the construction of the Kodiak Little League field, plus being a general all round umpire and sign painter. I would also like at this time to congratulate our new champs for this season, the Kodiak 0utdoorsmen. A very special con gratulations to the OutdoorSmen manager Bill LeiStner and his fine coaching staff of Leonard Turner, Art Evans and Leo DeGraw."

KODIAK MIRROR

Amidst a jubilant throng of about 70 fans the Kodiak Outdoors men Little League baseball team downed the Naval Station Red Sox 2-1 to clinch the 1860 local cham pionship.
 Tn the first game of a best two- out-of-three series the Outdoors men journeyed to the MS field, where before about 40 fans the Red Sox dropped a Al game. The game was called by umpire D.. Gloria after 51a innings due to darkness. Outdoorsmen pitcher Don Robinson gave up only one hit which accounted for the Sox lone tally. Sox hurler Bruce An drews allowed the Outdoorsmen to rack up hits, one of which was a first inning oyer-the-fence 4-bag- ger by slugger Jerry Markham. In the fourth inning with one away the Red Sox threatened with men on second and third. Robinson bore down and the next two batters to face him struck out.
 With one win under their belt the Outdoorsmen readied the in town field to receive the Red Sox. With the score 10 for 512 innings, Sox batter Bruce Andrews lashed a single to drive in Mark Huber tying the score.

Youth Urged To
 Remain In School

The U. S. Department of Labor, in cooperation with hundreds of organizations throughout the coun- try, is urging young people to stay in school and complete their edu- cation. Along with the U. s. Office of Education, the Department of Defense, and others, the Labor Department is directing its annual nationwide appeal to youngsters, their parents, and community lead CTS, as the fall semester ap- breaches.
 To the 10-million boys and girls who are now IA to IT years old, the Department points out the ob- stacles which those who do not graduate from high school will face. A major problem is that drop outs have difficulty getting any job at all because there are fewer unskilled jobs available. The com petition for jobs is tougher today because more young people are high school graduates. The non graduates have to search longer for work. For those who do land job, the salary isn't as good and job promotions are slower
 New knowledge, new skills, more adaptability, and greater flexibility are being required of young work CTS today. Increasingly, employers are demanding that job applicants have high school diplomas. The odds of getting the kind of begin ming job youngster hopes for are 3 to 1 in favor of those who hold such a diploma.
 Despite these facts, 1 out of of the boys and girls enrolled in high school drop out before gradu ation.
 New developments in the profes- sions, in automation, electronics, and precision machinery will accel- crate the trend towards more jobs for the educated and skilled, and fewer opportunities for the un- skilled.
 Industry now needs 1 engineer for every 40 workers. In 1900, the ratio was 1 for 400 workers. For every professionally trained engi- neer, industry needs, on the aver age, a crew of five trained tech nicians. There is continuing urgent need for more doctors, more college trained nurses, teachers, natural scientists and engineers. For those who wish to take profes- sional or advanced training, a high school diploma is a minimum re- quirement; in some cases, college work or even a degree is needed.
 Various studies have demonstrat- ed that in the long run an educa- ton pays for itself. One such in quiry, for example, revealed that by the time man reaches his peak earning period-roughly 45 to 54 years of age-the high school grad uate makes 27 per cent more than the man who completed only the eighth grade. Each year in school yields an additional return in

ate and $30,0O0 more than the high school dropout.
 Recently, the Institute of Life Insurance reported that a man with a grade school education can expect lifetime income of $178,- 900; the average high school gradu- ate can expect to earn $243,000; and a college degree raises the average total to $247,OOO.
Kodiak mirror., 1960-08-20

yearly income received. This is es- pecially true of the graduate. A
 diploma brings a double reward.
 For example, each year of high school through the 11th grade adds $238 in annual income; the 12th grade adds $466. The typical high school graduate during his adult earning years will receive $49,00O more than the eighth grade gradu-

July % tAP).-Rebellious Con-
golese soldiers attacked the
Congo's Finance Minister at
Stanleyviile and tried to keep
him from flying to this capital
with funds badly needed by the
government, a Canadian pilot
said today.
The Finance Minister, Andre
Tshibangu, had to be rescued
by officers of the United Nations
Command so he could proceed
here with 400 million Congo
francs ($8 million) needed by
the Congo governments de-
pleted treasury.
Capt. Michael D. McCallum
of Winnipeg, pilot of the DC-4
plane of the Sabena Airlines,
said Mr.. Tshibangu and an
accompanying U. N. official
were attacked by the CongoIese
soldiers at the airport on their
arrival at Stanleyville.
Later, when they returned
to the airport with the money
from a Stanleyville vault they
were detained by the Congo
leSe again and were taken to
a group of U. N. officers who
intervened and let them pro-
coed, Capt. McCallum said.
One of the big problems
facing the U. N. was to get the
Belgian soldiers out of Leopold
vile, as provided by the latest
U. N. resolution. U. N. Under
secretary Ralph j. Bunche of
the United States met with
Belgian officials to press them
to abide by their pledge to
withdraw.

from various African, Asian,
Latin American and European
nations by next week. The
