Mccarthy Makes Formal Rebuttal of Truman's Charges

NEW YORK, Rt-Sen. Joseph Mccarthy says the Truman ad- ministration was crawling with Communists"
 In his formal rebuttal to former President Harry s. Truman, Nc Carthy charges that Truman - while US. Senator and Vice Presidential candidate inter vened against the dismissal from government Serv ic e of George Shaw Wheeler, who later desert ed to Communism.
 Mccarthy says that after Tru- man became president, Wheeler was reinstated, although he had been dismissed as Communist.
 The senator gives this descrip- ton of what he calls Truman ism:
 "The placing of your political party above the interest of the country, regardless of how much the country is damaged thereby" :"
 Looking to the 1854 Senate and House elections, Mccarthy said:
 If the American people agree with Truman that what he calls McCarthyism' is bad, that it is wrong to dig out and expose trait ors, they have chance to get rid of me as chairman of the Investi- gating Committee next fall by de- feating any Republican ur for election"
 The senator said Truman's de- finition of ''McCarthyism" was identical word for word with the definition adopted by the Communist Daily Worker which originated the term"
 Mccarthy said of Truman:
 "As an individual, he is of no more importance than any other individual who has been repudi- ated by an overwhelming vote of the American people. Trumanism, however, becomes an issue inso- far as it is embraced by the Demo- cratic party"

Whereas the President of the United States, Dwight D. Eisen hover, has issued the following proclamation:
 "As a nation much blessed, we feel impelled at harvest time to follow the tradition handed down by our Pilgrim fathers of pausing from our labors for one day to render thanks to almighty God for his bounties. It is fitting that we incline our thoughts to His mer- cies and offer to Him our special prayers of gratitude.
 For the courage and vision of our forebears who settled a will derness and moulded nation which the framers of our Consti- tuition sought to secure for them selves and for their posterity and which are so abundantly realized in our land today: for the unity of spirit which has made our country strong: and for the continuing faith under His guidance that has kept us religious people <. we should kneel in humble thanks giving.
 Especially are we grateful this year for the truce in battle-weary Korea which gives to anxious men and women throughout the world the hope that there may be an enduring peace.
 "Now, therefore, I, Dwight D. Eisenhower in consonance with the joint resolution of Con- gress approved Dec. 26, 1941, do hereby call upon our people to ob- serve Thursday, the 26th day of November, 1853, as day of na- tional Thanksgiving. On that day let all of us . forgather in our respective places of worship and bow before God in contrition for our sins, in suppliance for wisdom in our striving for a better world, and in gratitude for the manifold blessings He had bestowed upon us and upon our fellow men,"
 Now, therefore, I, B. Frank Heintzleman, governor of the Ter ritory of Alaska, do hereby urge appropriate observance of Thanks giving Day throughout Alaska.
