“King Crab Air France” New Served
As A Choice Attraction On Airlines
The top Chef of Air France looks over a Kodiak King Crab as Lowell
Wakefield beams with approval. Through Lowell’s efforts at getting
the chef acquainted with this gourmet’s delight, King Crab will be
served on all Air France Interncontinental flights.
More than 200 members of the
Anchorage Chamber of Commerce
and their guests ate a hot King
Crab dish at the luncheon meeting
March 25th prepared by Monsieur
Marcel Chemery, top Chef of Air
France.
After enjoying this hot crab dish,
Chef Chemery, who is the “chef
des cuisines” of the entire Air
France showed the crowd how to
prepare “King Crab Air France”—
his name for the new gourmet de
light.
In its preparation Cognac, white
wine and Pernod were used lib
erally, according to Lowell Wake
field who attended the luncheon.
Chef Chemery made a special
trip from Paris to Alaska to sec
the King Crab in its native habitat;
to see it caught processed and pre
pared for market. Last week Mon
sieur Chemery was a guest of
Charles Hendrix and Wakefie'd
Fisheries on a flight to Seldovia
where he witnessed the fishing and
processing in full operation.
“The dish — King Crab Air
France — will be used on all inter
continental flights of Air France,”
Chef Chemery told the Anchorage
Chamber. “Your fresh frozen King
Crab is a gourmet food of the fi. it
category. I like it very much. That
is why I came to Alaska to see for
myself,” the Chef said.
“I predict that it will become
very popular in the best cafes in
France,” the top chef told Lowell
Wakefield.
Senator Gruening
Questions 8.72
Acre BLM Program
Sgn. Ernest Gruening is taking a
dim view of the Bureau of Land
Management’s request for with
drawal of 8.72 acres for an admini
strative site.
In a letter, dated March 20, to
Mayor Merrill C. Coon with a copy
going to Bill Mason of the Mirror,
the junior senator writes:
Through the years I have been
increasingly apprehensive as to the
necessity and value, and often the
size of administrative withdrawals.
I hope that the view's of the people
of Kodiak wil be thoroughly aired,
and if necessary, a full hearing re
quested.”
“I am wondering why an admin
istrative site for a local refuge re
quires 8.72 acres. In any event, the
views of the people of Kodiak
should be obtained and should have
a bearing on the result.”

THE BUOY LINE
wsBSk&mimm ■;
I’m sorry to be late this
month, but I just returned to
the office from a three-week
trip to our fleet at Adak, and
this gives me a chance to report
just what the fishermen are
saying about this North Pacific
mess—and believe me, they’re
saying plenty!
And they should. We all
should. Because every time one
branch of our government had
taken a firm position, another
branch gets busy and starts
chopping it down. Take a look
at the record. As early as 1945
President Truman saw what was
going to happen, and he issued
a Proclamation which said, in
part, “In view of the pressing
need for conservation and pro
tection of fishery resources . . .
the United States regards it as
proper to establish conservation
zones . . . contiguous to the
coasts of the United States
wherein fishing activities have
been or in the future may be
. . . maintained.”
This seems clear enough, but
when the time came to put it to
work, we wound up with the
weak-kneed gentleman’s agree
ment in the “Abstention Princi
ple.” Significantly, Mr. Ed Al
len one of the original negotia
tors testified before Senator
Magnuson’s Committee in Se
attle last month, “They wouldn’t
let us make it any stronger.”
Who wouldn’t? Well, the State
Department was in charge of
things.
But the State Department
doesn’t always have the last
word, either. The United Na

tions is full of countries who
don’t give a damn about our for
eign policy—but who do care
about conservation. And, in 1955
the Rome Convention was held
to draft a Sea Law Code.
Alaska’s own Senator E. L.
“Bob” Bartlett called attention
to this Convention last week,
when he asked Secretary f
State Rusk to enforce the con
tinental shelf regulations whici
clearly seems to include cr ib
and I believe might well—if an
other convention was held to
morrow — include ail fishery
species.
This very point came up at
the 1956 and 1958 Geneva C in
ventions, but our State Depart
ment got in its licks—with the
result that no agreement was
reached. However, it now turns
out that the whole continent of
South America, most of Africa
and several European countries
are all in favor of exclusive fish
ing zones mainly as a means of
conservation. India would like
to see at least 100 miles off
shore. Brazil stoutly defended
her continental shelf in the face
of France’s navy just a few days
ago, and it seems to me that
Senator Bartlett is on the right
track.
So my idea is that we ought „o
get behind him and present a
united demand to our State De
partment that they do something
for the fishermen instead of to
them—just for a change. What
do you think?
With best regards,
Bill Ritter
