Fish and Wildlife To Test
Possibilities Freezing Fish
Whole While At Sea
WASHINGTON, (/P>—The U. S.
Fish and Wildlife Service plans to
conduct large scale tests to deter
mine the commercial feasibility of
freezing whole fish at sea.
If successful, the Service be
lieves, “The practice would even
tually mean an increase in the
^ income of the individual fisher
man, advanced efficiency of the
industry* as a whole, facilitate
marketing, and possibly increase
consumption and acceptability of
uniform high-quality fish.”
In a report made public by the
Senate commitee on expenditures
in executive departments, the
service disclosed that the tests
basically are designed to overcome
the deterioration which occurs be
tween the time the fish is caught
and it enters market channels.
Several commercial efforts to
completely process the fish aboard
vessel by filleting, packaging and
freezing at sea, the report noted,
“were not completely successful
due to personnel problems and!
to the difficulty of carrying out
*
the filleting and packaging opera
tion at sea.”
Laboratory tests, however, have
proven that it is “technically feas
ible” to freeze the fish in the
round (whole) and land them in
this condition.
An additional advantage of the
new method, the service declared,
is that waste is not discarded at
sea and is available for prepara
tion of high protein and vitamin
fish meal for animal feeding and
other uses.
TOKYO, (JP)—The army today
told how a GI saved a Korean
child from drowning.
Pfc. Joseph H. Tucker of Pon
tiac, Mich., was on military police
duty, guarding a bridge as streams
of refugees moved slowly by.
Suddenly he heard them shout
and scream. He saw a child being
swept along by the swift river.
Tucker plunged in. His heavy
clothing bogged him down, but he
saved the child.
Accuses Gen. Vandenberg
Criticizing Policy In Korea
WASHINGTON, (/P) — Gen.
Hoyt S. Vandenberg, testifying in
•the Senate‘s MacArthur inquiry,
came under sharp fire today from
Senator Hickenlooper who de
clared that Vandenberg has been
just as critical of Korean policy
as Gen. MacArthur ever was.
Hickenlooper said it raised the
question whether Vandenberg
should resign or be removed as
Air Force chief of staff.
Vandenberg, in return, denied
that he had disagreed with any
United Nations policy as to Korea.
He acknowledged writing in a
! magazine article la9t March that
U. S. air power was made just
about uselss “when the United Na
tions in an effort to avoid a dip
lomatic rupture with -the Chinese
Communists, halted offensive ac
tion at the Yalu River.
But he told Hickenlooper:
“I was explaining a result from
miiltary action. I was not advo
cating it.” |
Hickenlooper contended that
Vandenberg’s comments published
in “Air Force” magazine, together
with other statements he said he
would produce later, were “Just
as critical of U. N. policy ... as
anything that General MacArthur
ever said.”
Vandenberg was in the witness
chair for the second day before
•the Senate Armed Services and
Foreign Relations Committees.
They are investigating MacAr
thur’s dismissal from his Far East
t
ern commands and the policy dif
ferences involved in the dismissal.

For Good Printing Call Main 125
It’s generally conceded that a medium-weight, medium
speed engine is the one that makes the most money for
a boat-owner these days. Slow, heavy engines take too
much hull to float them, take up too much space in the hold.
At the other extreme are fast, flyweight engines, often over
rated as to horsepower, that have to work too hard at the job
assigned them, with high fuel consumption, frequent repairs
and short engine life as the result. Right in the groove is the
Caterpillar, now made in ten sizes. The largest, the D397 pic
tured above, delivers 400 h.p. continuously at 1200 r.p.m. and
weighs approximately 14,000 lbs. Take a look at Caterpillar’s
record for dependability and low maintenance cost; add the
fact that dockside Caterpillar service is available at Juneau,
Ketchikan or Seattle, and you can see why Caterpillar power
is the leader in the North Pacific, as it is in the harbors, fishing
grounds and waterways of the entire continent!
