SEATTLE m Two sea-going freighters collided in dense log in the Strait of JUan de Fuca early Tuesday. One seaman on the Japanese ship Taikyu Mam was reported killed, the IT. S. Coast Guard said. Brief messages from the two ships, intercepted by the Gordon Head Wireless Station at Victoria, B. C, said neither ship was believed seriously damaged, and both were proceeding. The other ship was the 7,17fl ton Greek ship George D. Grat sos, bound for the Columbia Riv er. The Victoria wireless station said the Greek vessel first sent out a call for assistance, but later canceled the call after a check on its damage. Later the Coast Guard at Port Angeles reported the Gratsos and a six-foot gash in her bow near the anchor house, and the Taik yu Maru an 80-foot cut high on her port side. The Gratsos lost her anchor and part of the chain. The Japanese ship was to put in at Port Angeles, about 30 miles east of the accident scene. The collision occurred at 4:55 a.m., PDT, off Shcringham Point on Vancouver Island, about 90 miles northwest of here. A thick fog covered the area and the pilot of a Coast Guard plane which flew over the scene two hours after the crash radioed he was untable to spot the ves sels, except on his radar screen. A Coast Guard tug was en route to the scene from Neah Bay, Wash., near the entrance to the tsrait, and a patrol boat set out from Port Angeles. Tom Garside, district operating manager for Coastwise Line here, said the master first radioed the ship was "extensively damaged" but gave no details. The freight er ordinarilly carried a 53-man crew, Garside said. The Coast Guard said the George D. Gatsos left Vancouver Monday night. The Taikyu Maru was inbound from the Orient.

REGISTER-GUARD WANT ADSJRiNfijj 'Messr Admitted But GOP Blamed NEW YORK im Mutual security Administrator Averell Harriman said Tuesday he agreed with Dwight D. Eisenhower that there Is a "mess in Washington" but defined it as "the Republican Party." In an address prepared for de livery at the 71st annual American Federation of Labor Convention, Harriman said the GOP presiden tial nominee had been so confused by his party he is getting "history all botched up, too." Harriman shared the convention speakers' platform with Secretary of Labor Maurice J. Tobin and Federal Security Administrator Oscar E. Ewing. Eisenhower will discuss his views on labor in an address to convention delegates Wednesday. Illinois Gov. Adlai Stevenson, Democratic presidential nominee, will speak to the convention Mon day. In their prepared speeches, To bin and Ewing urged organized labor to insure election of a Demo crat - dominated Congress that would repeal the Taft-Hartley la bor law. Harriman, unsuccessful candi dater for the Democratic presiden tial nomination last July, deplored Eisenhower's use of the phrase "mess in Washington" to describe the Truman administration. "I agree with him that there is a mess, Harriman said, "and that mess is the Republican Party." He said Eisenhower, as a general of the Army, endorsed the admin istration's policies but, as a politi cal figure, denounced them.

Civilian Spotters TACOMA itPi The commander of the 25th air division reiter ated Tuesday' that "the Air Force has no intention of taking over sole operation of the ground ob server corps." Answering a recent ruling by at torneys general in Washington and Oregon. Col. T. Alan Bennett said "the Air Force has no desire to remove loyal civilian observers from their present duties. "We don't want to control the ground observer corps, other than from an operational point of view. However, the day to day need for a complete air defense system pre cludes the Air Force from letting the existing organization disinte grate. The urgency of the world situation dictates that the ground observer corps continue to func tion." The ruling changed the previ ous status of dual control of the GOC operations by the Air Force and civil defense agencies. The decisions by the two states estab lished that the states could no longer expend civil defense funds for the maintenance of the corps, Col. Bennett said.
