SEATTLE, Juyl 16—Two mil
lion dollars has been loaned to the
Pacific Explorations Company by
the Defense Plants Corporation to
provide for exploratory deep-sea
fishing off the coast of Alaska,
Sen. Warren G. Magnuson an
nounced recently.
The Senator said an 8,800-ton
vessel had been released by the
Maritime Commission to the Fed
eral Government and was being
outfitted at Bellingham Wash., for
the exploration.' He said the com
pany, headed by Nick Bez, was
formed recently for the express
purpose of exploring the fishing
resources of the continental shelf
of the Alaskan coast.
He said the exploration also
would establish legally American
rights to the fishing grounds and
make it possible for the President
to extend the “three-mile-limit” to
the edge of the shelf and prohibit
fishing by other nationalities.
The President in conversation
recently indicated such action
might be taken to protect the
» American fishing indusry, Magnu
* son said. He said the ship now be
| ing prepared would act as a can
* nery ship for trawlers which
; would deliver their catches to her
’ in midocean.
