Merry-Go-Round By DREW PEARSON (Continued from Page 1) everything the Administration does and to focus a “little sunlight on the mistakes and questicnable poli- cies” of the Democrats He charged that China was being forfeited to the Communists and he urged Vandenberg to take a stand on this and demand a review of our China policy. When America realizes its mistake, Bridges argued, then the Republicans could pin the blame upon the Democrats. Vandenberg retorted sharply that it was easier for Bridges to snipe against our foreign policy because he didn’'t have the responsibility as GOP foreign-policy spokesman. Vandenberg admitted that the pic- ture is dark for the Chinese anti- Cemmunists, but argued that it was too late to interiere without jeo- pardizing the chances of salvaging what is léft. By intervening now, the United States wouldn't save China but might endanger future relations, Vandenberg argued. He also pointed out that the corrupt governing clique that runs the Cen- tral Government soaks up most U. S. aid intended for the Chinese peo- ple. @ PRO-COMMUNIST DIPLOMATS? Bridges snapped back that mem- bers of the State Department were sabotaging our foreign policy and demanded that the pro-Communists be flushed out of the service. At this, Massachusett’s lean Lev- erett Saltonstall raised a caution- ing hand, suggested it was unfair to question the motives of diplomat- ic personnel. “If you had a general who com- manded an army and lost a battle through incompetence, you would remove him,” crackled Bridges. “If he lost by conspiring with the en- emy, you would court-martial and probably shoot him. But the State Department loses country after country and all you do is promote them.” Vandenberg said he didn't know of any pro-Communists in the State Department. Ohlo’s Senator Robert Taft suggested however, that the people underneath are often biased and don't give the people on top a true picture. Tempers flared up at the height of the debate, but codled off by the time the meeting adjourned. BRICKER CHAMPIONS NEGRO? Ohio’s statuesque Senator John Bricker has been posing as the great champion of the Negro by demanding that segregation be out- lawed in all public housing projects. But what the publi¢ didn't realize | is that Bricker tcned down his own anti-segregation amendment, the minute it conilicted with the real estate lobby. Bricker's original anti-segrega- | tion amendment would have cut off Federal funds, including FHA loans, for any segregated housing project But when the real estate boys saw this, they realized Bricker would cut off one of their most lucrative sources of money—loans from the Federal Housing Administration. So they hotfooted it to Bricker's office and had him change his amend- ment so that it abolished segrega-! | tion for public housing, but not FHA-financed housing. | Note— to inject civil rights into the hous- ing debate so it would turn the | southern vote against public hous- | ing. MALMEDY TRIAL i Only one important committee hearing at this session of Congres3 been chairmanned by a Repub- 1 — Senator Baldwin of Con- necticut who presides over the Malmedy t:ial investigation. Bald- win is one of the ablest and most fair-minded members of the Senate, but there is an interesting back- slage story behind his appointment. It results from the fact that Maryland's dapper Senator Tydings wanted to euchre the probe of the Army’s court-martial away from his Democratic colleague from North Carolina, swallow-tailed Clyde Hoey. Tydings appeared to believe that American officers were justified in using brutality and torture to wring confessions from ex-German | Storm Troopers who allegedly took part in the Malmedy massacres during the Battle of the Bulge. | Tydings also claimed jurisdiction for his Armed Service Committee —though only after Hoey had ord- ered his special investigating com- mittee to look into the case. Pre- viously, Tydings had flatly refused | has to investigate; then changed his mind after Hoey's interest. i Fearing that Tydings would | whitewash the brass hats, Hoey sug- gested turning the investigation ver to a joint committee, made up of members from the Armed Ser- vices, Judiciary and Expenditures Committees. This started talks between the | two that were still proceeding when suddenly Tydings pulled a surprise announcement that his committee would go ahead with its own inves- tigation, and he appointed Senator Baldwin, Republican, to h@d the probe. The payoff is that Baldwin’s law | partner, Dwight F. Fanton, helped, the Army prosecute the Malmedy defendants. | TRUMAN SORE AT ISRAEL President Truman, who frequent- ly blows hot and cold over Pales- tine, has given a private spanking to the new republic of Israel. He is boiling mad at the Israel gov- ernment for what he considers an insult to the American Ambassador to Israel, James G. McDonald. McDonald reported to the Presi- dent that during a recent interview with the Israeli foreign minister, Moshe Shertok, the minister spoke disparagingly of Ame n aid to iIsrael. This made Truman so mad| he ordered the U. S. Represeniative | |to the United Nat Warren | Austin, not to object when the United Nations pigeon ed Israel's | application for U.

Ben Elelson, pilot of wilkins' expedition in the Polar regions, was coming here. The famous flier, for whom Eielson Field was named, had left Seattle on the teamer Aleutian with Fairbanks as his ultimate destination. Eielson had received the Harmon trophy from President Hoover for his flight in the South Pole regions. from THE EMPIRE H. H. Andre of Juneau had won a 2000-mile race against death, arriving in San Francisco at the bedside of his mother, two and one-half days after learning of her illness. At sight of her son, she took a turn for the better, and hope was held out for her recovery. Work was started on enlargement to the Juneau Cold Storage plant, to which a 15,000-pound sharp freezer unit was being added. Sam the Tailor had moved to Front Street opposite Tom McMullen's Cafe. In Douglas, E. W. Maher sold his house on H Street to John Bacchia. Maher planned to leave for Framingham, Mass., to make his home after 31 years in Alaska.
