the author or the words.
II still refuse to permit those
words to become a part of these

insofar as they could affect any
decision of mine.

Senator from New Jersey is Of

! The sense OF the Senate. ex-

Is that Senator Mccarthy is
more to be pitied than censured.
Overnight. the controversial
junior Senator from Wisconsin
has become the Nations most

from his colleagues to be up and

him q speedy recovery. Some
prescribed q speedy return, amid
anguished cries from Senator
Dirksen. and o sly suggestion
from Senator Langer that they
say 1t with flowers.
The Congressional Record to-
day is practically just one yo-
luminous bipartisan get-well card
to the junior Senator from Wis
consin.
Senator McCarthy's bruised
elbow brought the heaviest at
tendance on the Senate floor
since the debate about his polit-
ical future began on Noyem-

some bruising exchanges be-
tween those who wish the SEN

him just well enough to take
the medicine they have in store
for him.
Senator Knowland's reading
of the report from the Senate
physician set several members
on the Democratic side of the
aisle off on medical "reminiscences

Senator Lehman recalled the
two occasions on which he had
broken his leg and had carried
on. He wanted the Senate to
more or less sit at Senator Nc
Carthy's bedside. and read his

He said Senator Mccarthy, who
is now suffering from "traumatic
