WYNNE The world today is shot full of rumors and theories on what is happening, what may happen, and why Let me add a few more theories to the mill for what little they may be worth. Somehow, studying the present Middle East crisis, I get the dis tinct impression that the entire Itory has not yet been told, nor has it yet unfolded. The. United States, and Britain too, acted with such haste, and are displaying such a terrific show of might that it occurs to me, they might have beaten Russia to the punch. Just a day or two before the Marine move into Lebanon, almost all government circles agreed that there was little likelihood of Amer ican troops mnvipg into Lebanon, even in the event it was being threatened. But, in one fell swoop this re port was repudiated and action taken. My, theory is that the United States and Britain were both re liably informed that Soviet Rus sia had plans to expand her man euvers on the Iranian border into I military move aimed at con quering Iran as well as Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon. My guess is that the U.S. and Britain had been informed of this possible move by bolh Nasser and Khrushchev, and acted to forestall the move by shoving in our own forces. This is one theory that will explain why we already have over t.OOCl troops in Lebanon and more on the way. It will only explain why we have airlilleoj a sizable force to Turkey where they are poised and ready just in case. It is also the only plausible rea son why Britain moved hack into Jordan. This theory may' not he pub licized for some time, but I'm still convinced that a Russian move was thwarted and in lime perhaps history will find the World War III was averted by our Middle East move inslead of slarlcd it. Now, what will the Russians do? The vole in the Security Council en Friday leads me to believe that Soviet Russia and Egypt will take joint military moves to coun ter American and British moves Into the Middle East. Again, it's theory and perhaps faulty reasoning, hut here it is. II the Russians were caught bluffing, and determined not to move against our forces, then it would have been to their advan tage to have backed the American resolution calling for UN forces to be sent to Lebanon and Jordan to replace American and British troops. In addition, she could have scored a tremendous victory by in sisting that this UN force not io rlude any American or British sol diers,, but rather she could offer perhaps 5.000 or 10,000 Hussion troops for the job. This move, if accepled, would have effectively pushed Rritain and America out of the Middle East and given liu.sia lire hand, both In hoodwinking the UN forces in both Lebanon and Jordan, but also by putting Russian troops legally in the Middle East. The Russian move never came, however, and she clung to her own motion asking for wilhdraw.il of American lories. Washington to start the new drive for Hawaii statehood. They'll go home without action but with some political ammuni tion to use in the territory's fall elections. Opposition to Hawaii, as well as to Alaska, is rooted in- the basic political lear of Southern conserv atives that four more senators are just four votes the South won't have to support state rights . . . as Southern Democrats see state rights. Beneath the surface, the race issue plays a part, but it's doubt ful that it is a major barrier and it's never brought out in the open. The so-called contiguous argu ment was used against Alaska, that the size of wage increases as com pared with corresponding quar ters of the past few years." Experts of the department's Bureau of Labor Statistics said while second quarter 1958 wage gain results still are being tab ulated they seem to be running about the same, with some cases of increases' slightly less than last year. Fringe benefits gains, such as vacations, health-welfare and pen sion improvements, are coming along a bit under the 1957 clip. Most new negotiated wage set tlements are running around the 10-ccnt per hour raises of lasl year. There has bceo some de dine in wage gains in manufac it wasn't geographically part of the 'luring, the segment of the econ United States. And it is used more!01"? narnesi nil ny me recession so against Hawaii, that' Hawaii :But factory worker earnings rose isn't even part of the North Amer- t0 " record $83.10 a week in June lean continent. 'he Labor Department said in But in attacking Hawaii state- stances where unions failed to gel It appears to me that Hammarsk jold's fears were well founded. The anions of the Security Coun cil on Friday when it turned down all three resolutions dealing with the mailer, left it standing naked in the light of world opinion. The action displayed beyond doubt to all the world something we have known all along, that the Secuirty Council was helpless to deal with the problem of revolution or out right aggressions In the world. The Korean hassle would have been handled the same in the UN had Russia not done an ill-timed walkout. Friday, she alone vetoed the American resolution to send addi tional UN forces to Lebanon and Jordan, thus permitting the with drawal o American troops. To me, it appeared to be the final or near final death throes of the United Nations. It had reverted to what it al ways has been ... a sounding board for world opinion, but pow erless to do anything about it. The action of the United Nations left both the United States and Britain free to exercise the tried and true pattern of diplomacy by both force and unilateral agree ments between nations. Unless the United Nations can somehow rise and meet this new challenge that faces the world, it is just as dead as if it had never been crealed. Again, these are theories and opinions that are entirely personal. Take them for what they are worth. By the time this reaches print on Sunday morning, in the intervening hours between the typewriter and the press many things could have happened that would explode all Ihese theories. That's indicative of the way in which I he w orld is moving. Hjiwiiii Politic By GEORGE J. MARDER United Tress International It's hard to put ydur finger on just why Congress is lavoring Alaska hut not Hawaii with stale- hood this year. Bolh territories have been knocking on I lie congressional door for admission as slates for years. The arguments for and against Hawaii are pretty much the same as for Alaska. But it's as certain as anything can bo in Washington that Con gress won't move on slalehnod for Hawaii this session as it did for Alaska. There's sound reason to suspect that politics was behind the latest ballyhoo campaign to whip Hawaii through Congress this year. It was a quickie operation, cooked up by Hie administration in Washington with the help of the Interior De-' partmeol. Statehood, obviously, is quite a political issue in Hawaii. The ter ritory used to be solidly Republi can. It isn't a GOP solid strong hold by any means any more. The governor, William F. Quinn. bring appointed, by President Ei senhower, is naturally Republican. But the territorial legislature is now Democratic. .inH en ic:tnent u-m-L-ore b'icnnhr.u.n.. oi,!

VgS FISHING- (.Vrri t-"Za- n.V-: hood, the opponents do have one smash issue not present in the de bate over Alaska: Communism. The Senate Internal Security subcommittee headed by Sen James 0. Eastland ol Mississippi held hearings in Hawaii. It piled up volumes of testimony allegedly showing that the Harry Bridges' International Longshore Workers' Union and its affiliates have a strangle hold on the territory's political and economic life. Hawaii spokesmen from Gov ernor Quinn down have labeled the charges nonsense, Nevertheless, fear of having the Hawaii statehood debate run smack Into the Eastland reports is believed part of the explanation why no action will come this year. A House committee is expected to go to Hawaii before next congres sional session to accumulate in formation which will offset the Eastland report charges. Another reason for the delay Is the persooality and unique leader ship of Sen. Lyndon Johnson, the Democratic chieftain in the Sen ate. Johnson refuses to allow the Senate to waste time in long de bates on measures he isn't reason ably certain will become law. He insists the House act on Hawaii first. The House Isn't ... not this session And so the Hawaii story can be summed up in these words eventually, but not now. any wage increase at all are run ning at the same tempo as 1037 and considerably under the no-in crease settlements of 1954 and J935. The technique of long-term la bor contracts, providing annual wage - boosts and built-in living cost allowaoces, is conducive to actor in keeping wages rising. Strikes are at a low ebb. But millions of wokcrs get automatic pay boosts and living cost adjust menls! under three and five-year contracts. This creats a pattern for unions negotiating new wage terms. The experts are watching to see whether the sleel industry raises prices, following a big prencgoti ated pay hike for sleelworkers that went into effect July 1. They also are watching the now-stale mated auto industry labor negotiations. The outcome of these two situa tions will have an impact, both actual and psychological, on the rest of the economy. They may determine largely whether the wage-price race will even off or spurt onward to higher levels. Wages, lriM.s Soar By NORMAN WALKER Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON AP) Both wages and prices are continuing to spiral upward despite the re cession and despite President Ei senhower's call for moderation. Government data show that business and labor are paying little os no attention to the Presi dent's plea (or restraint as both prices nod wages climb to new record levels practically every month. , The government itself is largely ignoring its own advice.

WHITNEY AP Foreign News Analyst Judging by experience, the So viet Union already is preparing a major diplomatic move designed to get maximum political advant age out of the boiling Mideast crisis. The coming Soviet step may parallel at least in outward ap pearance Kremlin actions in the Suez crisis of 1056 and the Syrian situation of 1957. n other words it may sound like an ultimatum. Then the Soviet government de livered what the world took to be ultimatums, backed by use of armed force or Soviet "volun teers." Both of these actions were iiiccessful from the Rusian point of view. The Russians left the Arab world and many ther peoples with the conviction it was the Soviet threat that com pelled the Rritish and French to call oft the Suez campaign.

I do not, however, think Russia will launch a full scale war by any attack nvainst either ours or Britain's forces now in the Lebanon-Jordan areas. And. still one more I henry.

This despite lhe fact, that the I N nhser- vation team could not get near the borders in areas held by the rrb els.

My theory, again for what it's worth, was that Dag could see lhe possible breakup of the United Na tions in the event nf any military action in the Middle East. Following on the heels of the abortive Suer Canal fighting.
