Sen. McCarran of Nevada
Swings To Stevenson
RENO, Nev., (1P) — Democratic
presidential candidate Adlai Stev
enson today won the support of
Sen. Pat McCarran (D-Nev), who
seldom has been a friend of the
Truman administration.
McCarran told the Associated
Press in an interview he joined
Stevenson backers after receiving
a letter from the Illinois governor
saying he was never a member
of Americans for Democratic Ac
tion and is not a captive of it or
any other organization.
The ADA is a Democratic group
leaning toward Roosevelt New
Deal policies. Stevenson’s cam
paign manager, Wilson Wyatt, was
once a member.
The 76-year-old Nevada Sen
ator hitherto has withhheld en
dorsement of Stevenson because
of what McCarran called indica
tions that the Democratic stand
ard bearer subscribed to policies
of the ADA.
Stevenson’s letter was in an
swer to a telegram from McCar
ran criticizing the governor’s ap
pointment of Wyatt as his per
sonal campaign manager.

ATA Plans U.S. Market
For Alaska’s Seafcii
WASHINGTON, (/P)—The head
of a non - scheduled airline has
outlined plans to develop a mar
ket in the United States for Al
aska seafood.
* y
Amos E. Heacock, of Seattle,
president of Air Transport Asso
ciates, Inc., to’ld a Civil Aero
nautics Board examiner such a
program would be aimed at gen
erating southbound air freight
traffic from Alaska. ATA runs
round-trip passenger freight ser
vice from Seattle to Anchorage
and Fairbanks. However, much of
the business is northbound. Very
little freight moves south to the
States.
Heacock, who testified in a
year-old CAB investigation of air
line rates in the Pacific North
west and Alaska, said plans call
for creation of a new firm — Air
borne Perishables, Inc. — to de
velop the markets through pro
motion and advertising campaigns
in the Midwest and in the East.
The CAB has ordered ATA’s
operating permit revoked. The
U.S. Court of Appeals has upheld
the CAB action, but ATA has
asked the court to re-hear the
case.

SE Alaska Gets
Rain But No Fish
JUNEAU, WP)—The rains final
ly came to southeastern Alaska,
but the salmon didn’t.
Earlier, fish experts thought the
drought-like weather, with con
sequent lowering of small streams,
was responsible for the scant run ■
of pink salmon. But when August!
rains raised the stream levels,
without doing much for the sal
mon runs, the evidence seemed
%
to be pretty clear that it was
just another light year for the
pinks.
Even-numbered years have been
\
poor cycle years for pinks in re
cent years. The 1952 drop-off is
a repetition of 1950.
Some optimistic fisheries men
still were hoping for an 11th hour
run, and a possible season exten
sion, but C.H. Baltzo, acting re
gional director of the Fish and
Wildlife Service, said the outlook
is not good.
The season closes in this area at
the end of this week.
Albert M. Day, FWS director;
was due here for the critical
closing period. Clarence Rhode,
regional FWS director, was re
turning from an Arctic trip for
an end-of-season conference.
Rhode has described the 1952
season, prior to the late rains, as
having the least rainfall in 15
years.
VACATION HINT I

“Don’t take a vacation from God,
you don’t want Him to take a vaca

Dr. J. Manning Potts, the editor,
points out that the vacation period
should be a time of re-creation, re
newal and inspiration. Families and
individuals at home or away can
make this summer mark the be
ginning of a strengthened spiritual
