VANCOUVER (CP) — Ottawa stiould spend at least $200
million to rebuild dwindling salmon stocks on the Wesl
Coast if it is serlous aboul saving the troubled fishery, a
coalition of commercial fishing groups said Monday.

The suggestion by the Fishermen's Survival Coalition is ©
part of a platform of reforms it wants the federal govern-

ment to carry out to reverse the decline in salmon stocks. ©

The suggestions vary with Ottawa’s solution to the
prablem — spending $100 million to buy 20 per cent of the
fish boats on the West Coast:

An advisory council to Fisheries Minister Pierre De Bane
suggested the buy-out after concluding that fish stocks
cannot be increased unless fishing pressure is reduced,
even though fishermen need more salmon to stay in
business.

“The demands of the fishermen for more fishing time is
not the reason the industry is in trouble,” Jack Nichol,
president of the United Fishermen and Allied Workers’
Union, told a news conference.

The coalition includes the UFAWU, the Pacific Trollers

Association, the Pacific Coast Salmon Seiners and the Gulf

Trollers,
Nichol said fishermen don’t argue ‘with the buyback plan
to bring the fleet into balance, but solutions have to include’

Linda McCartney’ S
tune different

LONDON (AP) — Linda McCartney, Wife of former
Beatle Paul McCartney, pleaded guilty to Possession of
marijuana today and was fined $105.

She told reporters as she left Uxbridge magistrates court -

that it was “much ado about nothing.”

Mrs. McCartney, 41, was arrested at Heathrow Airport on
Jan. 17 as she and her husband arrived from’ Barbados,
where -they had been fined $100 each by a court for
possessing marijuana at their vacation villa. ;

In a 12-minute hearing today, Mrs. McCartney was ac-
cused of smuggling in 1.73 ounces of marijuana valued at |
$6.85.

Some of it had been rolled into two cigarettes, Det.-Spt.
John Hallam of Heathrow’s drug unit testified:

Paul McCartney watched the trial from the packed public 7

‘as his wife’s lawyer, Edwin Glasgow,.said she was
genuinely very sorry that she has brought herself here
today."’
Glasgow told the court it was hypocrisy 10 expect the
McCartneys to set a special example. ~ ”

Also today, Yoko Ono, widow of former Beatle’ John .

Lennon, was in Liverpool showing son Sean around the.

’ group's birthplace.

Ono took Sean, 8, to the Cavern, the club where - the

About PEOPLE

Seems humans aren’t the only species that get hooked on —

booze, Some of the hardest drinkers ever to hang their tails
around a bar stool are rats, says Dr. Gaylord Ellison, a Los
Angeles professor of psychology. . vo

Ellison, who uses animals in alcohclism research, has.
given his rats not only | their own living quarters, eating area
and recreational area, but has_also provided. them with
their own bar. 4

It contains six drinking spouts —. three thal provide an °

alcohol solution flavored with anise and three that provide .
only water.

Ellison said his studies show most members af the rat
colony drink lhe “hard stuff?’ in moderation, but nine per‘
cent become problem drinkers.

“This is about the same percentage of problem drinkers
as we find in human society,” Ellison said. “Only a small.
percentage of the rat colony remain leetotallers,”’
