Hobituul Knockers

1t amazes me how some persons who
call themselves Republicans. and 9TH
ers. who have been in the habit of crIti-
cizire men in public office for many
years, appear unable to break them
selves of this vicious habit despite the
change in administration.
At the risk of sounding like broken
record I would like to remind the
anonymous writer who signs himself
Il. S. NJ" that his comments cast dis
credit upon the present administration
His implication that former President
Truman was lax in flushing Communists
from the Government says in effect
that President Eisenhower is also lax
The present administration has yet to
publicly dig up any one but very dead
possible Communist, namely, Harry
Dexter White.
If there are still Communists in the
Government, am sure that President
Eisenhower is in better position to
deal with them than Il. S. M" Letters
like his can only cause the President
public embarrassment.
