The W ashington Merry -Go Round

 By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON British and French skepticism over General Macarthur and his risking of an all-out war with China has focused attention on some of the friction, long hushed up, between Washing ton and Tokyo. This friction was one reason for the Presidents sud- den flight to Wake Island.
 The President, of course, has never admitted publicly that there was any difficulty with Macarthur. Furthermore, MacArthur has been almost obsequious in conferring with Washington, and only once CT twice has he been curt or abrupt. Once, however, on or about October 12, when instructed not to bomb bases on Chinese soil, he sent back a very rough cable loaded with bitterness.
 My troops are being bombed and strafed by planes based on the North side of the Yalu River" is an accurate paraphrase of MacAr- thurs message What do you pro- pose do about it?'
 MacArthur never got an answer to this query.
 The problem involved in this and other messages was exactly that which has bothered the British, French and our other LIN Allies

Statehoods for Alaska, Hawaii Appear Now 10 Be Lost Cause;
 Inevitable Defeat Is Admitted

those who favor civil rights legisla- tion.
 Another Bill Blocked
 The same fight. Lucas added, also has blocked a controversial railway labor bill This measure seeks to allow the union shop and check off" payment of union dues in the railway industry. Senator Jenner (R-Ind) wants it to carry Fair Employment Practices" (FEPC) amendment which the Southern group opposes vigorously.
 Parliamentary Snarlup
 After four days of debate. the issues have become enmeshed in this parliamentary snarlup:
 l. The Senate can't proceed to vote on the Alaskan statehood bill without an impossible-to-get unani- nous agreement to sidetrack the railway labor bill
 2. It can't go ahead with the labor bill without unanimous approval almost equally difficult-to side track a pending motion to vote on statehood for Alaska.
 Fate of Hawaiian Bill
 Action on similar bill for Hawaii hinges on the fate of the Alaskan measure. Both have been approved by the House.
 After three days of treadmiil de- bate, Democratic Leader Lucas in formed reporters yesterday that un- less a voting agreement can be reached by Monday he will with draw his motion to take up the measure. And he indicated very plainly that he foresees no such agreement.
 Senator O'Mahoney lD-Wyo) i, floor manager for the bill, took a similar view.
 Next Move
 After moves failed to set voting time either tomorrow or Monday Lucas said:
 "We'll let the boys talk tomorrow, then set the statehood bill aside and take up rent control if we still don't have an agreement to let the statehood come to vote"
 The Alaska bill has never off, cially been before the Senate for consideration, although both it and the Hawaii measure cleared the House early this year. Since Tues day, the debate has been based on Lucas motion to bring it up. Even if that motion prevailed, the bill itself would be subject to unlimited talk.
 O'MahOney's Views
 OMahoney appraised the situa- tion in the Senate as "a full scale filibuster."
 Senator Hoey DINO demanded in a speech that packers of the bill abandon their fight for it "in the interests of national unity"
 In light of developments in Ko- req, he said, Unity is a supreme need. We should not take up this controversial matter now"
 Hoey said he opposes granting statehood to any area not con- tiguous to the United States and contended Alaskans themselves are far from overwhelmingly in favor of becoming state.
 Tax Issue
 Taxes of Alaskan communities are high and would double under statehood, he said, asserting many people in the territory want to continue territorial status on that account.
 Senator Saltonstall (R-Mass) an- nounced in the Senate he will vote against the proposal to take up the statehood issue ahead of the pend- ing bill proposing to authorize union shop agreeme ments and 'checkoff" payment of union dues in the railway industry.
 He said he would vote against the motion because "the Senate should xeep the commitment it made last September" to vote on the railway pill. and disclaimed "any purpose ,f delaying the statehood bills"

this charged-up feeling is what
Ball fears most of all. .-.
Colts Have Everything to Gain.
Psychologically. the Colts have
everything to gain and nothing
to lose in this game. They lost
seven straight exhibitions, and a
winning league debut over the
Redskins would more than atone
for the unlucky seven. The Colts
know they'll be up against a solid,
hard-hitting team, while the Red
skins may be inclined to over
confidence.

|iouchdowners Honor
Redskins; Spaniel and
Sebek Are Released
Bx Lewis z. Atchison

The Redskins five victories in
exhibition games were good for
the morale of everybody but
Coach Herman Ball. He is old
fashioned enough to think that
the team should win a few league
games before being handed the
championship along with a free
feed.
The Touchdown Club, good fell
lows who have stuck by the Red
skins through lean years, added
its tribute to Ball and his men
at its annual luncheon for the
squad. It was a sellout at the
Statler. as usual. but Ball soberly
wished the Touchdowners were
celebrating the Redskins first
league victory instead of extend
ing best wishes. He is sincerely
concerned about the outcome of
Sundays opening game at Bal
timore and can't convince any,
body the Colts will be trouble
some.
"You heard that the books are
making you 17-point favorite?"
asked one sports writer. Herman
groaned at that.
II heard guys got six grand
riding on you," persisted the
writer. Herman just sighed again.
Sebek, Spaniel Dropped.
The only load of Balls mind
today was the final cut, putting
Quarterback Nick Sebek and Half
back Frank Spaniel, both rockies,
on the clubs reserve list. Waivers
were asked on them and they
went unclaimed. It was a partic-
ularly distasteful task for Ball,
who regards both highly, but it
had to be done to get down to
the 32-player limit.
Sebek has been offered q berth
with the Brooklyn team in the
American League but may decide
to return to the University of
Indiana for the one semester's
work he needs to obtain his de-
gree. Spanial undoubtedly could
go with Brooklyn, too, where the
roster is assuming a decided Red
skin hue, but frankie will be
around Washington several days
before deciding what to do. Both
will see the Redskins make their
debut at Baltimore.
Meanwhile. the Colts were re-
ported ready to give the Red
skins real tussle in their first
meeting with the Washington
eleven. Coach Glenn Grove, who
did a good job at Buffalo last
year. apparently has his men

the field against Maryland two
weeks from tomorrow at College
Park will be one that has earned
its position on the merit basis
from this years spring and fall

Everybody on the Navy football
squad started from scratch when
Erdelatz was named to succeed
George Sauer after the Middies'
fourth consecutive losing season
in 1949. Eddie put aside the 1949
movies because he didn't want
past performances to influence
his judgment of players. What
was fair for one was fair for ALL"
Erdelatz said yesterday. "I wanted
to give everybody an equal
chance"
No Preseason Scrimmage.
Erdelatz, an outstanding end for
st. Mary's of California from 1882
to 1884, even passed up Navy's GUS
tonaary preseason scrimmages.
IF we have anything, let Mary
Land discover it." the deadly-seri-
GUS mentor of the Middies said.
IF we don't let them show u.s."
Never in Navy's glorious football
history have the Middies been be-
set by as sorry a record as during
the last four years. In 81 years
prior to 1945, Navy had only six
losing teams, only two of them in
a row-1902-03
The Middies hit a new low in

Cornell, but lost all the rest. In
1948 the team didn't beat any,
body, but in a memorable effort,
tied Army. Last year the Mid
shipmen won three of their games
and tied one, but took their worst
beating in the history of the Army
game, a $50 thrashing. Navy
hasn't beaten Army since 1943.

Navy coach in 1946 and 1947, was
