Washington Must Act Now To Protect Alaska Fishermens Rights On High Seas, Senator Bartlett Demands In Kodiak

this must be taken up on the high est diplomatic levels. It is true the latest incidents occurred in inter- national waters. NonetheleSs, what Washington must realize is that our fishermen will not stand by while their property is destroyed by fishing vessels from another na- tion operating so close to our shores. am convinced that Mos COW, no more than we, will want an international incident of seri- ous proportions to develop here. There is no need for it. Tension can be eaSed by one order from Moscow. The sooner it is issued, the better off everyone is going to be. In the meantime, our fisher men must not continue to be sub jected to these depredations.'
 Bartlett left Kodiak today for Anchorage. From there he is going to Seattle to address the opening session of the International North Pacific Fisheries Commission Mon day.

"The United States government must furnish protection to it's cit izens whose property is being dam aged or destroyed by Soviet fish ing boats," said US. Senator Bob Bartlett in Kodiak today. "This is a primary obligation. It is one which any government, large or small, cannot shirk. Washington must act. It will be time enough to negotiate with the Russians con- corning fishing operations off Ko- diak Island, and other areas, after American fishermen are made se- cure in their rights on the high seas."
 Bartlett's statement followed a reported incident seven miles south of Sitkinak Island early on the morning of Nov. when a big Soviet stern trawler twice swept through the crab pot gear of the Kodiak fishing vessel Oceanic, skippered by Albert "Coogan" Pe- terson and owned by Lloyd Cannon. The incident, following several others several weeks ago, in the

Bears Destroying Island Livestock

KodiakS bears are again giving the livestock industry a bad time as three COWS belonging to Dewitt Fields herd were killed this week by brown bears.
 Hunters killed four of the seven bears in the raid, and said that three got away. Fields ranch is in the Larsen Bay area.
 Fields said Thursday that he had lost 45 of his cattle in the past 12 months-about half of his stock-to the bears, and other ranchers are experiencing similar difficulties.
 He said that bear was observed chasing COW on the Ron Hurst ranch recently.
 Fields stated that this is the worst time of the year for the bears to attack livestock with no salmon to feed on and just prior to hibernation.
 The protection division of the Alaska Fish and Game has joined in to eliminate the cattle-destroy- CTS.
