Senate Hears Red Who Was Assigned Kill Sen. Mccarthy
By c. MILTON KELLY

WASHINGTON, R A former FBI undercover agent testified to- day he heard a Communist brag he had been assigned to kill Sen. Joseph McCarthy-and the man he accused did not deny it in a public conformation.
 In a drama-packed Senate hear ing, ex-agent Joseph D. Mazzei related that he attended Com munist meeting in Pittsburgh last Dec. 2 at which Lou Bortz boast led party leaders had picked him to .liquidate" Mccarthy.
 Bortz, a black -browed man in flower printed sports shirt, was called from seat among the spec tators, put under oath, and asked: Were you assigned the duty of killing Sen. McCarthy?"
 Bortz declined to answer the question on the grounds his an swer might tend to incriminate me"
 The hearing was before Me Carthy's Senate Investigations subcommittee but Mccarthy as- signed Sen. Mundt to preside and took little part himself in the questioning.
 Both Mazzei and Bortz were kept at the witness stand together and, in much of the hearing, gave alternate testimony.
 Directly or indirectly, Bortz was asked repeatedly whether he had in fact been assigned to kill Me Carthy.
 At one point, Sen. McCarran said to Bortz: You have heard a witness under oath state you were assigned to destroy Sen. McCar- thy. Do you care to deny it?"
 Bortz repeated his refusal to answer, lest the reply tend to in criminate him. He added: II can't deny it and I can't affirm it."
 Mazzei said Bortz never did say who among Communist leaders had given him orders to kill Me Carthy.
 At the wind-up of the hearing, Mccarthy declined to comment on the case.
