Russia Increases
Fishing Fleet
In Bering Sea

WASHINGTON tR = Russia
has increased its Boring Sea fish
ing fleet and has done exploratory
work south of the Aleutian
Islands, a fisheries authority told
a congressional committee yes
terday.
Donald L. McKernan, Director
of the Bureau of Commercial
Fisheries, made the statement be-
fore the Senate Commerce Com
mittee, during a hearing on the
agency's fiscal 1862 budget.
Sen. Magnuson committee chair
man, asked McKernan:
'SHoW many Russian ships are
up there now? AS many as last
year,"
McKernan replied: Eyes, in fact,
more than last year.
Questioned by Magnuson, Nc
Herman told the committee bot
tom fish and king crabs make up
most of the catch made by the
Russians in the Boring Sea.
He added he "had no know
ledge of any conservation being
practiced" by the Russians in the
Boring Sea.
Magnuson told the committee
he hoped Russia would become
a party to a North Pacific Treaty
because at does not seem possible
that we have any treaty looking
toward conservation of North
Pacific Fisheries with Russia beine
a party"

Eichmann Went Beyond
Hitler's Plans In
DISCRIMINATING Jews
By Thomas A. ReedY

JERUSALEM Up = Adolf Eich-
mann advanced some proposals
for exterminating Jews that went
even beyond Hitler's plans, the
prosecution charged today at the
former Gestapo officers trial.
Asst. Atty. Gen. Gavriel Bach
told the Israeli court that at one
stage in World War II suggestions
arose within the Nazi hierarchy
that half-JeWs in the Netherlands
should be considered full Jews,
and thus be marked for death.
Objections to this idea arose
from the army and even Hitler
himself, Bach said. The argument
was that extension of this princi-
pie eventually would force one
quarter Jews serving in the Ger
man army to quit military service.
Bach said Eichmann, however,
advocated classifying half-JeWs
as full-Jews and this showed
"Eichmann in certain points was
even more extreme in his ap-
proach to the Jewish question
than Hitler himself
Bach made his accusation dur
ing a day of testimony on the
Nazi determination of Jews in
the Netherlands and Belgium.
A short, stocky school teacher
testified that the Nazis wiped out
the Jews of Holland and 'for-
ever made Tuesday a day Of
dread"
To this day, even in the safety
of Israel, 1--WE retain a sensiti-
witty to Tuesday," DR.. Josef Melk.
man testified.
That was the day of the weel
in Holland when the Jews were
lined up in the concentration
camps at 3 a. m. to hear the name!
of those chosen for deportation tt
the East.
They all knew, Eichmann said
this was the end of the road.

Floods Ravage
Midwest Area
By The Associated Press

Swollen creeks and rivers
cracked levees and left thousands
of persons homeless today, includ-
ing 1850 families in a five-state
rain and flood-ravaged area of
the Midwest.
Twenty-Five dead and millions
of dollars in damage were left in
the wake of rampaging waters in
parts of Missouri, Indiana, Kan
sas, Kentucky and Southern Him
DIS. Five persons are missing in
the five-state area; 118 persons
were injured and SO hospitalized.
Red Cross rescue workers con-
verted barracks, garages and
civic buildings into emergency
shelters. They worked around the
clock providing food, medicine,
orders for clothing and household
necessities and shelter to refugees
from "a counties in the stricken
area. High waters closed schools
and business places, isolated many
communities and made impossible
many major and secondary roads.
The threat of typhoid fever
from contaminated drin kin G
water worried officials in many
midWestern communities.
Through the night river town
jewellers and flood crews battled
the chruning waters. Volunteer
workers, Civil Defense and Ma
tional Guard crews and soldiers
joined in the fight to hold levees.

Rep. Sayor Says Hunting
Regulations Should Be
Put on Marine Mammals

WASHINGTON Up = Rep. John
P. Saylor, R-Pa), today advo-
Gated government intervention to
protect the polar bear, walrus and
sea otter from what he called
ruthless slaughter.
Saylor asked the House Fish
cries and Wildlife subcommittee
to approve his bill to permit the
Secretary of Interior to enforce
regulations for the hunting of
marine mammals on the high seas.
The number of such killings, he
said, is approaching twice the an
nual natural replacement in the
case of walrus, and is seriously
depicting the polar bear popula-
ton on northern ice floes.
Asked why he did not include
brown bears, Saylor said most of
them are within Alaska and sub
ject to state control.
The otter, Walrus and polar
bear, he said, are found in inter-
national waters and are properly
within jurisdiction of the federal

Polar Expert Balchen Says
US. Should Set UP ICBM
Launching Sites on Ice Cap

DAYTON Up = The United
States should be developing a
chain of multi-purpose defense
bases in the ice cap of Greenland,
a noted Polar and aviation ex-
pert believes.
He is Bernt Balchen, the man
who flew the late Adm. Richard
Byrd to Anarctica in 1923.
Balchen spoke last night at
banquet of the National Aero
space Electronics Conference
here. He has spent nearly two
thirds of his 81 years in Polar
work and is now a consultant for
General Precision Inc, an cleo
tronics equipment company.
The Arctic expert believes that
the 5000 foot high Greenland
ice cap would be the ideal place
to base intermediate ballistic
missiles.
Launching silos could be con-
structed there for a fraction of
what they cost in the United
States simply by digging into the
ice, he said.
Balchen said this country has
already mastered the technique:
of building military installation
on the ice cap or in it.
