 Dear Slrs
 Mir Edward RyanS letter in The Democrat of october Ninth. leAA, Is Q typical Republican re tort to those who attempt Co criei~ else Senator Danahers voting record on foreign policy, No at tempt Is made by Mir, Ryan Go dee fond Senator Danaher'S reoords instead, Mir. Ryan indOlges m abuse, innuendoes. and sntde per- sonNl criticism.
 The United Natlons Assoeia. ton went on record as opposing Senator Danaher because of his short sighted voting record before Pearl Harbor and because he has not yet made any definite stAte- ments as to the sort of peace he tavors the sort of world organiRa- ton ho will he willing Go support, and whether he favors a security organization with the armed power to enforce its decisions,
 MT, Ryan negleots these reasons for the United Nations Assoeta- tlons stand on Senator DNnaher, Instead hO suggests MT, Tyler Is moved by personal ambitions, MT, Ryan gives no proof, He Slyly suggests Mfr. Tyler Is Q Commun- ist; he gives no proof, Does MT, Ryan honestly think that anyone who critlciseS Senator Danaher is Q Communist I doubt whether even MT, Ryan is stupid enough to believe that, Mir, Ryan says Mir, Tyler smeArs DanAher, The only sneNrlng that has been done has been done by Mir. Ryan, The Uni- ted Nations Association gave c reasonable and logical statement as to why they are opposed to Senator Danaher, Mfr, Ryan comes back with Vllihcatlon and smearing,
 MT, Ryan says nothing of sen- ator Danaher's foreign policy stand, He can only quote from prominent Republicans aS to Sem ator Danaher's ability and etil- eleney, AS I understand it the United Nations Association has no quarrel with Senator Dana hers ability or eiiieleney, but only with his policies, About these Mir, Ryan says nbthing, because they are indefensihle, MT, Ryan names the important committees on which Senator Danaher serves, i'm. plying that these important posts place him above the criticism of the average man, As Q matter of
