Nixon Speaks Only From Notes
In His Reply to Stevenson

Mr.. Stevenson. the 1852 Demo-
cratic presidential candidate.
The committee arranged with
Mr.. Nixon for a two-page sum-
mary of what he would say to be
released two and one-half hours
before the broadcast.
Arrangements also were made,
as was done in Los Angeles, to
provide the complete text of Mr..
Nixon's speech as it was being
delivered.
Copies Quickly Available.
-Four public Stenographers took
down the speech at the commit
tees headquarters, and tram
scribed in short takes. Two
other persons duplicated the
parts of the speech as available,
and two others assembled them.
Within a matter of minutes
after Mr.. Nixon had finished his
speech, copies were available to
reporters.

Comment by members of Con-

speech last night to Adlai E.

Eisenhower administration di-
vided sharply along party lines.
Senator Monroney, Democrat
Of Oklahoma, said Mr.. Dixon met
Mr.. Stevenson's charge that the
Republican Party is half Eisen-
hower-half Mccarthy by asking
Senator Mccarthy to stand in

Senator Monroney said, adding:
"The m assi've retaliation

administration remains as foggy
as before. The question Of los

while America debates the
launching of Atomic World War
III, still is unanswered"
Two Republican Senators,

Welker of Idaho, had high praise
for Mr.. Nixon's speech.

"He certainly put the Eisen-

temper of the country. Some of
his closest associates are sup
posed to have cautioned him,
not to slow down on the Red
hunt. but to tone down his We
hemence in language and ac-
ton. If so. it wasn't reflected
much to date. for he is still the
same fire-breathing Mccarthy
of yore.
FuSilladeS in Both Directions.
Time was. and not so long
ago. when Mccarthy and Nc
Carthyism. as the left wingers
attempt to build the issue, was
regarded by some in a peculiar
way as a distinct party asset.
They felt he was keeping the
New Dealers on the run by his
concentrated shellf1re on the
past. But as he has continued
his fusillade almost as violently
at his own party's administra-
ton, it is another story.
UnqNeStionably, his thrusts at
Ike-even if both refrain from
using names-have not con-
tributed to unity. but have
fostered trouble. Some of his
colleagues once friendly and open
in supporting him, feel he has
gone so far he has become not
an asset but a liability, but to
what extent. they are not GER
tain. They will talk this
privately. But they won't take
Mccarthy on. The rumble from
the country still is too strong.
He still is in more demand as a
speaker than any one figure ex-
cept the president himself AMI
possibly Nixon.
The inside story of the Peress
case was pretty well told by the
exchange of statements-stupid
plumbers on the part of the Army
already being corrected and Nc
Cathy losing his temper and 60
ing too far in abusing a war
hero who wasn't a smart witness.
That just about tells it.
But it has left and awful bad

dent has proposed a splendid and

chit-chat with blowing off steam
in old-fashioned Army language
at what he regarded as an un-
warranted insult and affront to
his old comrades in the most re-
cent Mccarthy episode. Ike may
hold to that view but it can
truthfully be said no one else
does.
Back for a Ueriodic check of
the national picture, the writer
found that-with the world sit
uation tense and the domestic
front showing strain as the re-
adjustment from war to peace
goes its pace-major problems
which should be engrossing pub

topic.

Major Political implications.
There are major political i'm

try to insinuate that President
Eisenhower could and should
shut Senator Mccarthy up, if
he wanted to. The hope, of
course. is that those who are
deeply offended and alarmed at
the Mccarthy tactics will blame
the President and take it out on
him.
In short. they are trying to
drive a wedge into the Republic
can Party and split it when it
already has the slimest margin
in the House and no majority at
all in the Senate. Then it would
be goodbye to the bulk of the
splendid Eisenhower program for
the Nation and a shoo-in for
the left wingers. both in the con-
greSsional elections this year and
the next presidential election in
1856. It's SO obvious this is the
tactic that it doesn't take an
astute politician to find the
tracks. But is the country as a
whole getting the honest picture
or a distorted one?
The plain fact is that Presi-

ciple. says that he expects no
outsiders. including Senator Nc
Carthy, to come into Maine to
support him.
But one of Mr.. Jones' sup
porterS. who is also an intimate
of Senator Mccarthy, said pri-
vately:
This is going to be a real
knock-down campaign, and it
would not surprise me if certain
personages from Washington

man, with fierce and piercing
eyes that seem to conflict with
his affable nature.

Dear Bob:
I have heard rumors to the
effect that some Of the members

your Department in behalf of
former staff consultant, David
Schine. This they, of course,
have a right to do as individuals.
However. as I have told you a
number of times, I have an un-
breakable rule that neither I nor
anyone in my behalf shall ever
attempt to interfere with or in
fluence the Army in its assign
ments. promotions. etc.

with members of my staff, some
of whom feel very strongly that

Schine is over 26 years of age,

cause of a slipped disc in his
back. and thereupon enlisted in
the Merchant Marine, he would
never have been drafted except
that the extreme left wing writ

screaming about his case, be-
cause he was a consultant for
our committee. I realize that the
decision of the Draft Board to
reopen his case obviously was
unknown to you and far below
your level of operations.
While I am inclined to agree
that Mr.. Schine would never
have been drafted, except be-
cause of the fact he worked for
my Committee. 1 want to make
it clear at this time that no one
has any authority to request any
consideration for Mr.. Schine

clear in view Of the present in

Let me repeat what I have

Disciple Of cCorthy Seeking
To Unseut Mrs. Smith in Maine
Candidate Boasts
Of cCurthyism'
As Primary Issue
By Edwin A. Lohey
Correspondent Of The Stor and
the Chieoao Dolly News


PORTLAND. Me-. Mar. 10
The Republicans in Washington
are trying hard to get their
genie. Senator Mccarthy. back
in the bottle. so they can have
some party harmony.
But Senator Mccarthy is bust
ing out all over here in the
northeastern corner Of the United
States in what may be the most
significant phase Of his political
career
A personal disciple of Senator
Mccarthy, 33-year-old Robert l..
Jones. has set out to drive Sena-
tor Margaret Chase Smith from
public life. principally because
of the woman Senator's hostility
to the junior Senator from Wis
consin.
Mr.. Jones has begun a whirl-
wind campaign against Mrs.
Smith for the Republican NOM
ination for the Senate in the
primaries of June 81.
The nomination is virtually
the equivalent of election in Re-
publican Maine.
Denies Acting for Mccarthy.
Mr.. Jones denies vigorously
that he is acting for Senator
Mccarthy. He says he has not
even talked with the Wisconsin
Senator about his decision to
unseat Mrs. Smith. whose term
expires this year.
He readily comedies that Sen
ator Mccarthy has less than a
high regard for Mrs. Smith, be-
cause of the declaration Of
conscience" proclaimed in 1850.
This declaration of con-
science" in which Mrs. Smith
was Joined by other Republicans,
decried the -four horsemen of
bigotry. ignorance. fear and CAL
umny."
1t was a direct slap at Senator
Mccarthy at the beginning of
his anti-Red campaign.
Mr.. Jones says with positive
pride that the issue in the Maine
primary is "McCarthyism."
"Americanism consists, If you
wish. Of McCarthyism." he de-
clares.
Il think Joe Mccarthy is do
ing grand job. and it's a shame
he should be criticized when his
efforts mean so much to the Sc
curity of Americans and the lie
Tense of America.
1T seems that it's almost I'M
American these days TO be an
American"
Real Blood Fight.
The real significance of the
candidacy Of Mr.. Jones is just
beginning to dawn on Republic
can politicians.
Senator Mccarthy by indirec-
ton, is for the first time apply
ing the purge to a Republican
colleague who disapproves Of
him.
Before the Maine primary is
over, there is little doubt that
this campaign will be revealed
as the real blood fight between
the genteel wing of the G. O. p.
and the dead-end kids for con-
troll of the party.
Senator Mccarthy has on
other occasions destroyed Demo-
cratic enemies in the Senate.
He drove Senator Willard E.
Tydings of Maryland out of pub
lie life in 1850. and Senator Will
liam Benton of Connecticut in
1852, on each occasion turning
the Red issue against them.
But the Maine primary is the
first clear instance of an

discount Fbk hOlc.
A Democratic member of the
subcommittee, Senator jackson
of Washington, agreed that "the
subcommittee has the RESPONSE
bility to pass upon its own staff.
Republican Leader Knowland
of California, said he wanted
the Mccarthy group to get to
the bottom" of the controversy.
Senator Dirksen discounted
the possibility, already being
discussed on Capitol Hill and
elsewhere, that the Federal
Bureau of Investigation eventu-
ally might have to be called
in to help. This has been sug-
gested because of the question
of truth in the charges and
counter charges between the
Army and Senator Mccarthy.
Senator Mundt had some
sharp words about the Army's
conduct in the case. He said
that sometime during the win

both" came to him with pro-
tests that Mr.. Cohn had been
