When newsmen asked an outspoken foe of communism" if had ever taken a stand on McCarthy or "McCarthyism," he said he never had, publicly or privately. Mundt. and other rommi'l- members said they had asked Hie same question and received the same answer.

Shortly afterwards news came from Boston--by way of newspaper files and the'Harvard' Criin- university undergraduate'' daily--that Sear.s had spoken btit publicly more than once In favor' of McCarthy, but not later than two years ago. He was quoted' as saying McCarthy "has done a re at job" and the Joss of'McCarthy to the Senate (in the. 1952 elections) would be a "blow- to the United 'States."

McCarthy. Despite Methods, Done Most To Expose The i. To the Editor: "Reds in United efforts of McCarthy." declares a recent newspaper headline. That of course, was to be expected. It should have also been' a foregone all newspapers and columnists of the New Deal persuasion would object to any effort, whatever, to the Reds out in the According lo classical mythology a serpent slain by Hercules had nine heads, each head when cut off two.

So is with Communism, and since its lion by (he-New Deal it has.grown by bounds, often dominating Government agencies and departments.

Seeing that such mild persuasive tactics 'were having no effect, the farmer resorted to stones, which brought results in a hurry. have been indifferent to Communism too Jong already.

No "one, it seems, has taken the Reds seriously. No one has honestly been on the alert. The Saturday Evening Post recently carried an article in which a New York -cop' who had been promoted to a 1st lieutenancy had belonged to 'the Communist party for 16 had been on the police force Jng that time and had been ari B.l suspect since 1944. I hear people say they do 'riot, knosv what Communism is. According to Ihe latest dictionary Communism stands for the ownership of all property by either the community or the state.

Thus in sia farms are operated ly, crops when harvested are tatc--- en over by the state and food tickets issued to the workers. manufacturing and industry Spl owned and operated by the stater stores and distributing centers same. However, I believe the by an American lady recent radio quiz in regard to Communism, was, is, and will remain to be, the masterpiece for- cvcrmore. I quote: "I could never be a Communist because Communism enslaves men's minds, distorts truth, makes a mockery of religion, justice and trial by jury, and is pledged to overthrow, by force and violence my country's government." Now in 'regard to Senator McCarthy. I believe, regardless of hjs methods, that he has done more lo expose and stamp out Communism than any American, and regard- Joss of either his methods or politics the American people owe him the regards justly due a man who stops at nothing his one miSn fight against subversive elements both at home and abroad.
