(Soviet Blitz on Fishing
Faces U.S. Tense Rivalry
KANSAS CITY W — A govern
i ment official said Monday thf
j greatest problem confronting the
j U.S. fishing industry is the in
tense competition it faces on the
I high seas from huge Soviet fish
! ing fleets.
Donald McKernan, Director of
| the Bureau of Commercial Fish
eries, told the American Fisheries
Advisory Committee that both the
Russians and the Japanese have
invaded fishing areas tradition
ally thought to be exclusively
American.
“The Russian blitz on fishing
grounds off Cape Cod is the most
intense fishing operation in world
| history,” he told the committee,
which advises the Secretary of
Interior on industry problems.
Although mid-America is far
from the ocean fishing areas, the
j committee was told the area is
i ndispensable as a fish products
I market and a source of fish. Robert
I Balkovic, executive secretary of
: the committee, said 100 million
| pounds of commercial fish products
j are taken annually from the
Mississippi and Missouri Rivers.

government, especially the un
stable and unpredictable Fide
Castro.”
The vanguard of the Red com
bat division was said to hav
landed in Cuba in late July.

JVfitagon Plans to
Hr vamp Reserves
And Guard Units
WASHINGTON vP — Secretary
of Defense Robert McNamara set
in motion Tuesday a drastic
modernization of the Army Re
serve and National Guard.
The reorganization involves eli
minating eight Reserve and Na
tional Guard infantry divisions, all
of lo'.v priority, and dropping 731
smaller units which are considered
out of date.
Most of the men in these units
will be reformed into streamlined
outfits which — together with a
picked group of six National Guard
divisions — will make a top pri
ority forte trained and ready to
back up the Army's lfl divisions
within eight weeks after a call
to active duty.
McNamara ordered immediate
elimination of four Reserve in
fantry divisions and a net of 393
lesser Reserve units. He could do
this because the Reserve is wholly
under federal control.
The Defense Department sent
state governors proposals — and
appeals for cooperation -— in a
parallel revamping of the National
Guard. This calls for cutting out
four low priority Guard divisions
and 338 obsolete units.
Under the law, a governor must
approve any changes in the Guard
within his state — and this could
j cause the Pentagon problems.
Some states would lose men,
! others gain in the allocation of
i units.
i The Pentagon said the reorgan
I ized Army Reserves would consist
l of 6 combat divisions, 13 training
i i divisions, 4 brigades, 2 maneuver
. area commands and 2,155 other
1 units.
The reorganized National Guard
. would consist of 23 combat di
B visions, 7 brigades and about 1,743
J other units.
| The aim is to finish the re
-organization — the first in five
t years — before the Guard and Re
serve go to summer training camps
next year.
