fight fire with fire. How else are
these little boys ever to be laugh:
that they should not play with
matches?"

Senator Donne]l (R-Mo). who
favored confirmation Of Perlman,
objected that Brewster was utl-
lizing the same tactics the Demo
Gratis used when he succeeded in
having a clerk read a long ao-
dress made by Ty6ings more than
six years ago.
The Senate hna,ly voted 10 have
the clerk stop the reading, and
Brewster then gave up the fight.
He said he did SO at the urging
OF his Republican colleagues.
Tydings objected vehemently
when Brewster accused him Of
taking part in a filibuster against
the resolution by Senator KEN
(R-Mo) to authorize an investiga-
ton into Attorney General Clarh's
handling Of the Kansas City case.
Tydings declared he was "for the
KEN resolution and I told Sena-
tor KEN SO right in this cham
ber."
The long Perlman dispute to7-
lowed a bitter attack by Senator
Connally D-Tex) upon Senator
Ferguson (R-Mich) after Fergl-

Senator V~andenberg CR-Mich),
the presiding officer. ordered Con-
pally to "take his seat" "a one
point after Senators BROOKS (R-
I'D and Taft (R-Ohio) had pro-
tested that Connally's barbed
words violated Senate rules.
While damned galleries litter
ed, Connally accused Ferguson Of
Presidential ambitions and of
waiting ito capitalize, get public
ity, make a reputation"
The Texan said Ferguson had
attacked Clark on the Senate floor
where Clark had no chance TO
reply and was playing Tor the
headlines, publicity and political
venom"
His face flushing as he warmed
to his attack amid laughs from
the Democrats and the galleries,
Connally said Ferguson had at
tempted to cover Clark and Presi-
dent Truman with "innuendoes,
slime, and SANDER"
81 have stood ell O. this I can
stand" the veteran Texan con
tinued. 81 had 20 desire to eo-
gage in this debate had not the
Junior Senator from Michigan got
ten up again ard covered the
whole case with TIE vomit of his
prejudice and rancor and hatred
and hope and ambition"
Ferguson sat nearby Pale but
silent. Other Republicans stirred
If their chairs.
The galleries laughed again as
Connally described politicians
who get Presidential ambitions.
''When a Senator gets the amoi-
ton to run for President OF the
United States, nc longer is he
worth a DAMN Connally o
t:rued.
Connally said that if Ferguror
were a Texas Judge he would be
disqualified for his "vencm,
spleen and political hatred"
Finally Brooks broke in to say
that Connally had violated Senate
rules prohibiting one Senator
from rejecting upon the charac-
tel or integrity Of another.
81 call the Senator to order"
Taft yelled at Vandenberg.
Vandenberg dire cted CoNnally
to take his seat.
why do I have to take my
seat?" Connally protested.
Vandenberg read the Sena'e
rule.
Connally denied one statement
ard offered to withdraw it.
But Senator Hawkes. GRIND de-
manded that the official Senate
reporter Of debate read the rec

and shouted at Hawkes..
Vandenberg raped violently Cor

He said that Ccrnally definitely
had violated the rule and put to
a voice vote whether to allow
Connal1y to eontin uc"orde.'r
Connally to continue "in order"
Although Republican an o's'
seemed louder than Democratic
~'yes's." Vandenberg allowed
Connally to continue.
"I don't want to reflect upon
any Senator" Connally sail. ard
then renewed his criticism of Fer
guson in milder terms.
Finally Ferguson reolied,
speaking slowly and deliberately,
although he said this was difficult
