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.

'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.
Young Mother QQC to Retain
Jailed on Report
She Sold Baby
LONG BEACH, Calif. IIPI-A
young mother was in jail Tuesday
while police investigated a report
that she sold her baby girl.
Mrs, Edna E. Schon, 20, the
mother; Airs. Elizabeth G. Brittain,
35, the recipient of the child, and
Mrs. Kathryn A. Lincoln, 37, who
told police she was only a go-between,
were all booked for investi
gation of infringement of personal
liberty, a felony.
The police report said Mrs. Lin
coln got $450 from Mrs. Brittain,
kept $50 and gave $400 to Mrs.
Schon.
Mrs. Schon, delcaring "I wouldn't
sell Linda Kay for a million dol
lars," said she needed money
badly and understood the transac
tion would lead to adoption of the
baby. The case came to light, in
fact, when she appeared at the
juvenile bureau to inquire about
adoption proceedings. After the
three women were arrested Mon
day the baby was placed in a coun
ty institution.
Police said Mrs. Schon's estrang
ed husband, Paul, 24, is in Navy
service.
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.
