and a substantial chin, he navi-
gates the Senate corridors on the
balls of his feet. His eyes are wary,
as though it would not surprise him
at any moment if a textbook came
flying at him out of nowhere. If
one did, he probably would block
it and come back with an effective
right cross of his own.
The Good Offense
Mccarthy is an apostle of the
creed that good offense is the
best defense. The adjective good
refers to the efficacy, not the
ethics, Of the strategy. In this
sense, Mccarthy has found the
Communist issue to be a good
offense.
In the past six years, he has come
to identify himself so closely with
the fight against communism that
he and the crusade are-to him
indiStinguishable. To Mccarthy,
dedicated anti-Communist can
not help being pro-McCarthy. Con-
versely, an opponent of Mccarthy
is quite likely to be a Red.
Applying this rule of thumb, Nc
earthly might have been driven
long ago to the conclusion that
there are 100 million Communists
in the United States-but for one
fact. He is inclined to undereSti-
mate the number of people who dis
approve of him. It would never
occur to him that many bitter
Communists are also fervently
anti-McCarthy, genuinely fearing
that his shotgun charges have i'm
paired the effectiveness of the
anti-Red campaign.
Criticism and Reaction
Mccarthy is equally impervious
to other forms of criticism. His OPP
ponents like to cite the 1850 Mary
land campaign as an example Of
his penchant for dirty fighting.
There is middle-o of -the-road
school of thought, of course, which
holds that Mccarthy contributed
less to Tydings' defeat than was
popularity supposed at the time.
Mccarthy will have none of this.
He takes considerable credit for
Tydings' defeat.
Another common complaint about
Mccarthy is that he will stop at
nothing to advance his personal
cause. His enemies cite as an ex-

Extraordinarily Feud Hera|ds Mud Sinqnq Campaign

FOR five and half years Joseph
l. R. Mccarthy of Wisconsin had
been political noise-maker and
gsdfly. He had made his reputa-
ton. first. as professional friend
of the veterans-later, as a pro-
fessional enemy of the Commu-
nistS. For his manifold activities,
he had earned the praise Of some
and the maledictions of many. Last
week, labeled a scoundrel by one
of his fellow Senators, he became
the subject of a full-scale con-
gressional investigation.
In it's time, of course, the Sem
ate had already Investigated al
most everything on land, sea and
in the air. Some of its inquiries
have concerned matters Of vital
Importance to the Nation and the
world. Others have had to do with
the sheerest trivia. Many observ-
ers, as the Mccarthy hearings
opened, could not help wonder
ing whether the adventures of this
particular legislator really warrant
so much attention in a busy and
critical legislative year. Senator
Mccarthy himself apparently was
one of the doubterS. He did not
bother to attend the hearing.
Nevertheless, even as an absentee,
Joe Mccarthy was getting the full
treatment. The dignif1ed, white
haired Guy Gillette OF Iowa, pre-
sided with judicial calm over his
fve-man elections subcommittee.
Four crystal chandeliers shed their
light into the farthest corners of
the Senate Office Building Caucus
Room. A dozen white marble
pillars doomed portentously over
the witnesses, counsel and COM
mitteemen.
Two Questions
To the extent that the subcom-
mittee's labors might clarity parts
of the confused Mccarthy story,
the proceedings were of genuine
interest and perhaps even some
Importance. Was Senator McCar-
thy a scoundrel, as charged? 1t
was the committees job to find out.
But there was another question
to be answered. Even if the charges
could be proved, would the simple
fact of his being Scoundrel war
rent Senator's expulsion? Many
dubious characters have served in
the Upper House before, some not
entirely without distinction.
Having launched its inquiry,
there seemed no longer to be any
way for the committee to back off
and leave the issue unresolved. But,
as the first week of hearings ended,
one thing was already quite clear
the possibility that Joe Mccarthy
would be expelled from the most
exclusive gentlemen's club in the
world was very remote indeed.
