Show Page Two THE SALT LAKE TIM FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1969 DIPLOMATIC POyCIHl Hie following letters were recently answered by the Department of State: Please send me the figures of American tourists visiting the Soviet Unoin and of Soviet citizens visiting the United States for the years of 1964, 1965, 1966 1967 and 1968.' M.K.' Elismore, Calif. Dear MIC.: For the years 1964 through 1966 we estimate American tourism in the Soviet Union to number about 10,000 persons per year. In 1967 this figure was up to 18,000 and our estimate for 1968 was 30,000. This number was probably equalled in the first seven months of 1969. The number of tourists visas issued to Soviet citizens in the past five years was as follows: 246 in 1964; 256 in 1965; 527 in 1966; 802 in 1967; and 1,231 in 1968. I am very interested in the proposed Soviet Consulate in San Francisco.. I .would like to find out if they are planning to hire any local personnel and if so for what type of employment, and what requirements will have to be met by the employe. If you dont have any information regarding this, would you please refer me to the proper source. JJt. San Francisco, Calif. Dear JJt.: Dear JH.: While we have had some exchanges with the Soviets regarding the establishment of Consulates General in San Francisco and Leningrad no final decisions have yet been reached. It is suggested that you direct your query regarding the possibility of employment to the Soviet Embassy, which is located at 1125 lt6h St., N.W. Washpre-limnia- ry ington, D.C., 20036. . According to recent reports, tension is building up along the Sino Soviet border. Rumor has it that the Soviets are buying large amounts of strategic materials overseas and are stockpiling them. The Chinese are said to be building airraid shelters, strengthening fortifications and increasing the tempo of military training. I would like to know if you could provide me with further information on these events. Is there any chance that the United States will become involved if fighting breaks out? F.C.Z. Brunswick, Ohio F.C.Z.: Dear Concerning recent events on the Sino Soviet border, the Department has no information available for public release that would add substantially to that which has appeared in the press. We are of course watching developments closely. We can assure you that the United States has no intention of becoming involved in any dispute between the Soviet Union and Communist China. Do you have any inquiry about U.S. Foreign Policy? Send it to: The Diplomatic Pouch, U.S. Department of State, Washington, D.C. 20520. i Deer Harvest Down In Utah This Year Inferior Publicizes 69 Christmas Seal 1 Design Announced Gorge Canyon A fun filled scene soon will be everywhere. Perky, bright colors against sparkling snow, cheerful tots and a tall fir tree, the scene is the design of this years Christmas Seal. Christmas Seals have been mailed to over 136,000 homes in Utah, reports 1969 state campaign chairman Royden G. Derrick, and contributions are to come in daily to the Uath Tuberculosis and Health Association offices. As the holiday season creeps ever closer, the seals will add color and charm to millions of cards and packages; to bundles of gifts bringing warmth and cheer. Christmas Seals fit the holiday mood well. But charm and cheer are only part of the Christmas Seal story. The seals outlast holiday mood. They support a struggle which takes 12 months every year.

At Santa Clara, nonresidents showed an increase of 18.6 per cent over last year. Final tabulations revealed that 11,640 hunters checked out through the station with 7,815 deer.
