PUBLIC INVITED
TO INSPECT SS
JOHN N. COBB
Open nouse to the public of Gas
tines v. Channel will be held aboard
the Fish and Wildlife Services ex
piatory fishery vessel John N. Cobb
from 2 to 4 o’clock Sunday after
noon, March 25, it was announced
today by Regional Director Clarence
Rhode. The ship is due in Juneau
Friday evening on its first Visit tc
this port in the two years it hat
been in operation.
The vessel will be moored at the
Service float in the Small Boat
Harbor. It will come here from Icy
Straits and will remain here until
early next week.
Inspect Ship
Capt. Sheldon Jackson, in com
mand of the ship, and Lee Alver
son, FWS Fishery Engineer, who
is in charge of the fishery opera
tions, will be aboard to welcome
the guests and conduct them
through the vessel. The visitors are

ship and its exploratory fishing
gear and to discuss their work with
the personnel. An expert in shrimp
fisheries, operations, Andy Grenier

ship’s personnel and will be aboard

In its second year of exploratory
fishing the John N. Cobb has been
in Alaskan waters for the past two
weeks exploring for shrimp and
shell fish grounds that might be
utilized in developing a local in
dustry. Excellent results were found
in Idaho Inlet operations and the
Port Frederick area produced a fair
amount of marketable shrimp. The
vessel is presently at work in Ex
cursion Inlet.
The John N. Cobb was launched
last year in the Fish and Wildlife
Service exploratory fishing pro
gram. It spent the summer fishing
for tuna off the Southeast Alaska
coast. Results showed the potential
for tuna fishing to be not good in
Alaskan waters, fishery engineers
reported.

RUSSIA
STALLS
OVER LL
WASHINGTON, March 22 —W'
Russia’s refusal to return 67C
American ships may foreshadow n
breakdown of current lend-lease set
tlement talks between the two coun
tries.
In a blunt note handed Amer
ican negotiators, Russia accused the
U. S. of welching on a 1948 promise
to sell the vessels. It also implied
the American Government was ly
ing when it said the ships were
needed in the U. S. rearmament
program.
And the Soviet Union formally
insisted it be allowed to buy the
vessels 84 merchant ships and 586
•mall and medium-sized naval craft
loaned to Russia during World
War II.
American negotiators flatly re
jected the demand and the accusa
tions. And, although another face
to-face meeting was scheduled for
April 4, both sides were so far apart
it was generally felt this might be
the last in the round of talks which
began in January.
Some American officials expressed
belief the Russian negotiators head
ed by Ambassador Alexander S.
Panyushkln would continue stalling
with no intention of settling up the
over-all lend-lease account.
The rubber content of guayule,
American desert shrub, was dis
covered by modern men when rub
ber balls were found obstructing
the digestive systems of livestock
which had died suddenly.
