The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

scnpvrlgnt. ls.:. nv Bell Syndicate. Incl " ASHINGTON-Here is the in- side story on reports of friction between two of the most potent Truman Cabinet members-Secre- tary of State Dean Acheson and Secretary of Defense Louis John- son.
 Actually there have been diff ferences of opinion between them on three important policies, but both men are now leaning over backward to get along with each other. The three policies are: l. Sending a steel mill to Yugoslavia, which Johnson opposed but Ache son favored:
 2-Occupying Formosa with U. s. troops, which Johnson favored but Acheson opposed:
 3.-General American policy in the Far East, where Johnson be- lieves the United States should have vigorously supported Chiang kai-Shek.
 Acheson has particularly resent ed Johnson's barging into the Far Eastern situation; and the belief has been expressed around the State Department that Johnson's interferences could not be entirely divorced from his law firm which once represented the brothers-in- law of Chiang kai-Shek and the Soong dynasty.

NON -SkED HEAD HITS
 AERO BOARD
Air Transport President Blasts Government
 Monopoly"

SEATTLE, Dec. 30---tR-A Civil Aeronautics Board order that Air Transport Associates Inc of Seattle show cause why it's operating priv ilege as an irregular carrier should not be revoked brought prompt challenge from ATA President Amos Heacock last night.
 Heacock, who also is President of the Independent Air Carriers Con- ference of America, immediately accused the CAB of preparing to revoke letters of registration of all carriers who dare to challenge the government supported monopoly"
 T challenge you," Heacock wrote the CAB, ito defend your action before the public opinion of the peorle of Alaska who were first brought fresh- eggs, milk, meat and produce at prices they could afford by the non-scheds you are de- stroying."
 CONTAIN IN "vICLATION"
 The CAB order was issued yes- terday The agency said it acted on information that the company had been making regular flights between Seattle and Anchorage, Alaska, in violation of it's letter of registra- tion as a nonscheduled operator.
 Heacock denied that ATA has violated the Civil Aeronautics Act of 1938
 He denounced the CAB as kan garoo court" which is legislator, the prosecutor, the policeman, the judge and the jury" all at the same time.
 Alleged nonscheduled oparaton with undue frequency and regular ity'' is a crime only insofar as the Board says it is in a regulation adopted by the board with the full knowledge that the regulation would put us out of business" Heacock charged.
 The ATA President said the War Assets Administration invited vet erans to start airlines and Congress gave them priority rights to war surplus aircraft.
 HUGE WASTE
 We were shocked and amazed at the utter incompetence of our scheduled airline competitors huge waste-their half empty air. craft fulfilling CAB authorized he said. We couldn't until we discovered they could not possibly lose money te- cause the Board guaranteed mall pay to make up any losses.
 "As nonscheduled airline" Hea- cock continued, We proved we could provide low cost air transpor- tation to Alaska at one-third and less than one-third the per ton mile cost figures of the scheduled lines. Yet our scheduled competitors in Alaska service received as high as 50 percent of their revenue in mail pay
 Heacock asserted the CAB is preparing to revoke the letters of of ATA, Golden North 
 Airways, Mt. Mckinley Air Lines, Arnold Air Service and other car riers who dare to challenge the government supported monopoly
