Wisconsin Overwhelmingly
Returns Mccarthy To Senate;
Opponent Calls Him Corrupt

MILWAUKEE, R-McCarthy won
But there was no truce between
Mccarthy and Len Schmitt - the
man he defeated in yesterdays
primary election for the senatorial
nomination.
Schmitt charged Mccarthy had
won through ian amazing and
fraudulent hoax" perpetrated on
the voters. and he added:
"The result of this election is an
appalling thing. When the
full truth dawns, many people will
recall their support of Joseph r.
Mccarthy in this election with

The 42-year-old senator, seeking
his second term, brushed this at
tack aside by saying:
"The people of Wisconsin have

full endorsement to my campaign.

Schmitt 100, ABS
Four other COP senatorial can
didates ran far behind.
McCarthy's victory will pit him
in the November election against
either Thomas Fairchild of Verona
or Henry Reuss of Milwaukee,
the candidates for the Democratic
senatorial nomination.
Fairchild held a substantial lead
over Reuss early today, but re-
turns from Milwaukee County were
chipping away at the margin and
the outcome was uncertain.
McCarthy's spectacular victory
indicated that perhaps he had
some support from sWitch-voting

But this was only speculation
and there was no way to check
it. The prediction guess had been
that any such cross-voting would
help Schmitt - and this was one
of the concerns in the McCar-
thy camp. However, the senator
outStripped both Democratic candi-
dates and his five Republican RI

Japan Will Protect Hokkaido
From All Foreign Invaders

| turned over to Japan and more
heavy equipment will be supplied
this month and in October.
There has been no announced
target date for the establishment
of he Japanese defense forces on
Hokkaido. Howver, the National
Security Board says it will come
some time after the police reserve
is changed to the security forces"
Oct. Is.
The board hopes to create a
force strong enough on Hokkaido
to cope with any emergency.
While the emphasis seems to be
on Hokkaido. the Japanese gov
eminent hopes to expand the po-
lice reserve to 10000 men. Its
present strength is about $1,000.
The japanese Communists, who
oppose any rearmament and de-
mand that the reserve be disband-
ed, boast that the recruiting cam
paign for the reserve is running
into rough shedding.
This is conceded. The word
army" is unpopular in Japan just
now. The memory of the war is
still fresh. and politicians on the
left insist that Japan's economy
cannot stand rearmament.
The japanese government. how
ever, has undertaken in its security
agreement with the United States
to assume gradually the task of
defending itself in tumultuous
Asia.
The plans laid out for Hokkaido
appear to be the first stride IN
that direction.
