Undermining Faith
Is Also Subversive
OF Americans Today
AS OF JULY 81, 1850

WASHINGTON (LPA)-The name of Jean
w Muir appeared in a book called Red
Channels and she lost her job as the mother
in the well-known radio serial The Aldrlch
Family" The name of Irene Wicker, radios
Singing Lady," also appeared. Her contract
was cancelled. The name of Gypsy Rose Lee,
known to some as a mystery author and to
the more lusty as a strip tease artist, appeared
on the list, and some super-charged veterans
in Chicago demanded she be barred from the
air too.
"Red Channels is a listing of affiliations"
of ISL actors, writer's and directors, privately
published b. the editors of "Counterattack,"
a weekly four-page anti Communist leaflet,
something like a stock market tip sheet. ($24
a year,. 1t is put out by two lex-FBI agents
Theodore c.. kirkpatrick and John G. Keenan,.
Where did they get the material? From
newspaper clippings, court records, letter
heads and programs of various organizations,
and records of government committees like
the House Un-American Activities Committee
and its counterpart in California. Do they ever
check? They do not, says Kirkpatrick.
Kirkpatrick said they kept one name off
the list - that of Eleanor Roosevelt. 1t seems
she had 'the affiliation," but was not listed
tout of Difference to her position as widow of
the late president"
Kirkpatrick said RED Channels was not
intendent of the Newark, N. j. schools. is dis
work, but it is now so accepted. This hysteria,
this sickness, has spread. John Heron, super
intendent of the ewark, N. ]. schools, is dis
tributing "Red Channels" as a reference
book" for his principals and teachers. Teach
ers should know something about the subver-
sive action going on under our noses" said
Heron. He described Red Channels as de
voted to an expose of Communist activities
throughout the United States"
Jean Muir's dismissal was justified, says
kirkpatrick. Yet, just a few days before,
Young & Rubican, the agency handling the
Aldrich show, sent out a release, to wit: miss
Muir's wide experience as a mature actress
and the ~real-life mother of three young chill
dren has ideally equipped her for the role of
Mrs. Aldrich, who guides her family with a
loving and understanding hand"
Well, that's a press agent puff. Let's listen
to Morton Wishengrad, a veteran radio writer
who has been fighting Communists and Com
munlsm for 20 years. Two years ago he wrote
the famous ABC anti Communist documen-
tary. About a year ago he wrote a radio docu-
mentary on civil rights, and invited Miss Muir
to join the cast, She read the script, approved
1T, and took part. Wishengrad recalls that she
liked particularly an attack on Communism.

munist writer has resigned as a member and

qainst Communism because it was one OF the
groups that protested Miss Muir's appearance
on the radio.
The magazine New Leader can spot Com
munists quicker than bowling Joe Mccarthy
can dream up new charges. The New Leader
SAYS in an editorial, "Stand up straight and
look the real foes in the eye. The Stalinist
threat originates in the Kremlin and not in
Radio City"
The clio Textile Workers Union loves the
Connie like Taft loves labor. Its president,
Emil REEVE, took a leading part in the expul-
sion of the ommie-dominat unions from
the CLIO. The unions publication, Textile La
Dor, recommends that "Counterattack" be in
cluded on the Attorney Generals next list of
subversive organizations, because There is
very little difference between Communism
and what 'Counterattack' proposes in the
name of anti Communism"
Let's now take the case of Irene Wicker, a
radio star for 20 years. The Kellogg Co., has
been sponsoring her on radio as "The Singing
Lady" for 8h years, and on television for ID
months. They cancelled her contract right
after her name appeared in RED Channels"
The book said that the Daily Worker, on Sept.
Is, 1945, listed her as a sponsor of a commit
tee for the reelection of Benjamin j.. Davis.
Davis is a Communist).
She'd Just returned from Europe when
she heard she was no longer working, Abroad

and received a special papal blessing because
of her programs for children and her work in
their behalf.
She told kirkpatrick she had never signed
any petition for Davis; she had never heard of
Davis. Kirkpatrick said if her name appeared
in the Daily Worker, it was so, because The
Daily Workers is very accurate; they never
make a mistake" The Worker makes no mis-
takes only when 1t is not publishing).
Kirkpatrick seemed surprised when she
told him she did not know her name had APP
peared in the Daily Worker because she had
never read The Worker. (About ISL 800, 900
other Americans do not read The Worker
either.)
So she showed kirkpatrick copies of the
patriotic songs and religious plays that had
was that Just being religious is negative;
what have you done positive against Com
munism?" (Her Only son enlisted, at II, with
her permission, in the Canadian air force,
and was killed in action in 1922. All she's
done, replied Miss Wicker, was to live her
entire life against Communism.
Miss Wicker then got a court order to ex-
anime the nominating petitions for Davis, to
see If her name might have been forged.
There were 10000 names on the list. Miss
Wickers was not among them.
So Miss Muir is "subversive," and so is
Miss Wicker, and Gypsy Rose Lee, and Mrs.
Eleanor Roosevelt.
Know the definition of "subversive'? To
the McCartys, and the Senator Schoeppels,
and the Kirkpatricks, it is a synonym for
Communist. But it properly means "to under
mine faith or morals"
And in the name of patriotism, that is what
the McCarthys, and the Schoeppels, and the
~Kirkpatricks, are doing today.

Congressman from big indus
trial cities have a tougher time
getting elected than do their
colleagues representing rural
districts, according to election
expert Louis H. Bean, author of
the current best-seller "The
Midterm Battle"
That's because city voters -
particularly union members -
are more critical of their con-
gressmen and do more "shop-
ping around" among the can
didates and the parties.
In "The Midterm Battle"
which labor's political leaders
have recommended to all union
members - Bean points out the
difference between urban and
rural voting behavior. He is the
highly-respected political ana
lyst and forecaster who pre-
dicted a Democratic victory in
1913.
About Pennsylvania, for ex-
ample, Bean says:
"The rural VS.. industrial bal
ance has shifted a great deal.
Fifty years ago the sparsely-
populated rural counties were
more Democratic than the cities.
But today the urban counties,
where most of the voting popu-
lation lives, are more Demo
cratic than the rural areas"
Bean illustrates the impor-
lance of the votes cast by
union members by pointing out:
"Vote- shifting in the past dec
ade has been largely in indus
trial centers, not rural areas.
For example, 6 of the 10 seats

France Due 10 Press
For Quick Reply on
Bid for Help in Asia
BY the Assoeioted Press

PARIS, May A highly
placed French source said yester-
day that it is absolutely neces-
sary" for France to get quick
reply on her request for military
aid in Indo- China.
He said his government will in
sist on a decision by the Atlantic
pact Foreign Ministers in their
meeting in London next week.
Uncertainty is the worst factor
in any military situation" he de-
clared. Other equally well-in-
formed sources gave this assess
ment of the situation:
France is already manning a
second 'front.'" fighting the Com
munist- dominated guerrillas in
1ndo-China. Her army. the only
solid force on continental West
ern Europe, is pinned down by Ho
Chi Mini in the Oriental jungle.
The Far Eastern situation has
greatly deteriorated with the cap
ture of Hainan Island by the Chi
nese Communists. This puts Mao
TZe-tung's forces within easy
reach of Ho Chi Mini by water.
Countless junks and small boats
now can make clandestine rendez-
vous with the guerrilla rebels along
Wet Mans indented coastline.
Frances resources are being
strained by the full scale military
campaign against Ho Chi Mini
which is now running in it's fifth
year.
The French position is this:
Either Indo-China is important in
a strategic sense to the Western
world or it is not. If it is, then
the whole Western world should
join in carrying the load for its
defense. If it is not-which the
French do not believe-then
France eventually will have to
abandon Indo-C China to the Com
muniSts.
