WASHINGTON t/F» — Seizure of
foreign fishing vessels in terri
torial waters of the United Suites
is proposed in a bill to be intro
duced in Congress tomorrow by
Sen. E. L. Bartlett.
Bartlett said in a statement to
day that his action follows report
ed sightings of Russian whaling
ships in waters off Alaska.
The bill would provide a fine up
to S 10.000 or imprisonment ud to
a year, or both, for any master or
other person in charge of a vessel
seized in territorial waters.
“I have been advised that be
tween July 28 and July 30 eight
Soviet whaling vessels were sight
ed within lVfe miles of Sutwik and
Nakchamil islands west of Ko
diak.” Bartlett reported.
“Our laws are wholly inade
quate to deal with these increasing
incidents,” he continued. “These
recent Soviet activities simply fur
nish another example of the heed
less fishing practices which have
been adopted all over the world
by fleets of certain countries, con
stituting a grave danger to world
fish stocks.
“Another Alaska example of this
pattern was furnished in early
July when three Japanese whaling
vessels were sighted between Hazy
and Coronation islands and an
other whaler was sighted operat
ing of Cape Edgecumbe, all in
territorial waters.”
