US. DIPLOMATS SEEK
 PEACE TALKS IN LAOS

VIENTIANE, Laos R - Amer can diplomats strove today to bring the warning factions in Laos to the conference table but the feud- ing princes so far could not agree on conditions for resumption of peace talks.
 Reliable sources said the US. diplomatic effort, backed up by an open show of military might, was making little headway toward getting pro-Comnunist forces back behind the cease-fire line.
 Prince Boun Ourn's royal gov ernment cabled Prince Souvanna Phouna, the neutralist leader va cationing in Paris, to return home for peace talks.
 Souvanna agreed, but only if Boun Oum sends a delegation to the rebel headquarters for talks with his aides to draft prelimin- ary agreement.
 There was no word of further ad- vances by the pro-Communists who overran government outposts in the northwest and sent 2,00o royal troops fleeing across the Mekongh River to neighborine Thailand.
 After driving 100 miles beyond the cease-fire line in week, the rebels reportedly threatened an other all-out offensive unless 2 political settlement is reached.

Soviet Fishermen Are Operating In Halibut Grounds

JUNEAU tH = The appearance of a large Russian fishing fleet in the Gulf of Alaska "clearly indi- cates that this year marks the be- ginning of an accelerated bottom fishing effort by the Soviets,' Gov. Wm. Egan said today.
 Egan made the comment during news conference in which he noted that the Coast Guard had sighted Russian fleet last week operating in the gulf some 90 miles east of Kodiak, near historic American halibut grounds.
 The governor said the Russians were operating in international waters far outside of the jurisdic- ton of state or federal officials.
 Egan said he believed the state had put together case (which would be upheld by any court against Japanese fishing shippers arrested by state agents in Alaska claimed Shelikof Strait last month.
 No date has been set for trial of the Japanese.
 The governor conferred with of ficials Of the U. s. State Depart ment in Washington about the case last week, outlining the states po- sition
 'eThe time has come when we can no longer continue to keep giving our resources away Egan said. Tt would only be few years, with the Japanese disre- EaTu TOT CUHseT vdTI0H and fehabIl- itation, before there would be no king crab or bottom fish left in fhe areas s.share tkass f:s.s:ssszs A s Z adjacent to Alaska"
 Egan indicated that the State State De- partment did not subscribe to AIaska's contention that the harm which might befall Alaska's fisher ies because of an intrusion of foreign fleets more than offset foreign policy considerations.
 Too often" Egan said, -four foreign affairs people seem to for get that they represent, first of all, the citizens of the United States. @
 There seems to be the feeling that first and foremost we s.lSssisssss consider the reaction abroad, be- fore we consider the welfare of our own people.
 Under the circumstances, it would be hard to blame the Japan ese for going as far las they can, II our State Department tells them, in effect, go ahead and take over our fisheries 7

Large Storm
Brews Off
East Coast

MIAMI, Fla, Nov. 80 (AP) -
The Weather Bureau issued
this bulletin today on an Allan.
tic storm:
Gale warnings remain dis
played north of Savannah to
the Virginia Capes. Small
craft warnings are displayed
elsewhere along the Atlantic
Coast north Of Cape Canaveral
to Cape May.
The large and intense At
lantic storm is located about
500 miles east Of the Jackson
vile. Fla. Brunswick, Ca, area
this morning and appears to be
drifting westward about five
miles an hour. Gales with very
rough seas are occurring over
most of the area from the mid
Atlantic Coast to the north
and east of Bermuda and
southwark in the area east of
the Northern Bahamas.
Forty-five to so mile an
hour winds and waves UP to 80
feet were reported during the
night by a ship near the CEN
ter Of the storm. Gale winds
are reported by shipping just
off the coast of the Carolinas.
The threat of minor flooding
with beach erosion and tides
one to three feet above normal
will continue today and tonight
in the area Of small-craft and
gale warning display. Indica-
tons are that the storm will
continue slowly westward and
winds may even increase some
along the Georgia and Caro-
lima coasts if the storm MAIN
tains its intensity. Therefore
all precautions should be con-
tinued against above-normal
tides and beach erosion in these
areas.

surveillance on Air Force per-
sonnet who handle nuclear
weapons and soon will upgrade
checks on the emotional sta
Dility of all military personnel
who work with the devices.
The Defense Department has
said the 1858 suicide threat,
if carried out, would have pro-
duced at worst a TINT explo-
sion causing serious damage
and not a nuclear defamation.
1t also emphasizes that new
safeguards would make any re-
currence of that type of in
cident highly unlikely.
New Safety Measures
Among the safeguards is the
requirement now that no man
be left alone with a nuclear
weapon. At all times, at least
two men on equal technical
knowledge must be present.
Also, refinements have Deen
developed that safeguard the
weapons against accident.
These include more elaborate
safety locks and preconditions
Of velocity and pressure that
must be fulfilled before a nu-
clear defamation can occur.
Bullets might damage a pres
ent-day weapon, but would not
explode it.
To minimize the chances of
accident. new directive ap-
plicable to all services has been
drawn up for Defense Secretary
McNamara's signature. 1t will
require continuing surveillance
of nuclear-weapon workers by
their immediate superiors and
authority to require psychiatriC
examinations for any that show
signs Of instability.
A similar directive applicable
only to the Air Force has beer
lin effect since last February.
