Herman Welker says that the1 senate's 67 to 22 vote to censure Joseph McCarthy was a "purely political, verdict which came as no surprise to anyone."

Welker said the censure affair "did not involve McCarthy personally." "It was a matter which might In-volve any senator in the years to come. It (the vote) established a precedent according to which any senator might be censured for words written or spoken prior to his elec-tion by the people of a sovereign state," Welker said the senate had also "established a- precedent under which a senator can be censured for words spoken on floor of the senate, or radio or television, or even in a political campaign.

The spring hearings, before a committee headed by Senator Mundt, s. were concerned with these two principal questions: 1. Whether McCarthy and the staff of his senate investigating committee had attempted improperly to obtain from the army preferential treatment for Pvt. G. David Schine, a committee aide.

2. Whether Army Secretary Robert T. Stevens and his aides sought to use Schine as a means to stop McCarthy investigations into army installations. The hearings also went into innumerable side issues. The shooting brought the dismissal onto the 674 REBELS SURRENDER 1949 sedan.
