Wallace Pushing
Peace With Russia
PHILADELPHIA, — (/P) —Hen
ry A. Wallace rolled his new
progressive party today down a
road he and his followers promised
leads to a give-and-take peace
with Russia.
With an assertion that “we’ve
just begun to roll,” the Third Party
presidential nominee set out to
plant in every state the seed of
what he called a new political
crusade.
It was born here in boistrous
singing, shouting convention that
ended last night in seven and
one-half hours of free for all de
bate over a perty platform.
Wallace, glued to a television
set while his friends were adopt
ing a platform placing “joint res
ponsibility” on the United States
and Russia to keep the peace, then
whirled off to a youth for Wal
lace meeting.
As teenagers packed into a jam
med hotel ballroom cheered lusti
ly, the former vice president grin
ned widely, shoved back an un
ruly forelock and said:
“Gosh, it’s swell to meet folks
who are not playing it safe.”
That was a keynote of this first
progressive party convention, in
which Senator Glen Taylor of Ida
ho was picked as No. 2 man on
the Third Party ticket headed by
Wallace.

BERING SEA
RICHES AWAIT
FISHERMEN
ASTORIA, ORE., — —The
Bering Sea’s riches are awaiting
for the American fisherman.
That’s what the experimental
cannery ship, Pacific Explorer,
reported here after a four-month
trial cruise into the northern wat
ers.
The $4,000,000 ship brought
home more than $1,000,000 worth
of canned king crab and fish.
“It is a natural outlet for drag
fishermen, who have found slim
pickings elsewhere,” Capt. Rob
ert Berg said.
He said the giant chabs were
caught in such numbers that at
times the cannery ship could not
handle them all. He cited one
day in which eight boats brought
in 25,000 crabs in addition to cod
and other fish caught in dragnets.
Accompanied by ten fishing
vessels, the Pacific Explorer left
March 26 on the expedition. Last
year the craft, operated for the
government in the Pacific Explor
ation Company, worked waters
off Cos 1a Rica for yellow fin and
skipjack tuna.
Forecast for Nome: Cloudy with
intermittent rain tonight and Tues
day.
Lowest temperature 4a, highest
54.
Extreme temperatures on this
day since 1907: highest 78 in 1926,
lowest 35 in 1929.
