Beating Mccarthy to the Draw
Assignment Of Nixon to Answer Stevenson Is Attempt
To Assure Presidents Program as the Issue in Fall

Vice President Nixon's as
signment in answer to Adlai
Stevenson Is to make the Eli
senhower program the issue
in the fall elections.
The chances are he will not
even mention the name of
Senator Mccarthy.
Even Democrats admit the
Eisenhower program makes
appealing subject matter. They
expect the Vice President to
ring the changes effectively
on the Korean truce, the re-
duced deficit and the cuts In
taxes, the new look in the mil
itary, the expansion Of social
security to cover more people
and raise the benefits, the pro-
posalS to reinSure private
health insurance plans.
All of this may not happen
exactly as scheduled, but at
this point nobody can say it
won't happen. The Vice Presi-
dent, in fact, can make a real
contribution toward public de-
termination to see it happen.
There is no question that
the White House welcomes the
chance to strive for a fresh
perspective on the admins
tration. For all their refusal
to meet the Mccarthy issue
heads on, they are heartily sick
of the Senator from Wisconsin,

Chairman Leonard w. Hall
very properly spoke up for the
radio and TV time for a reply
on behalf Of the party and
thus sidetracked Senator Nc
Carthy. Adlai Stevenson had
carried the attack clear up to
the party's leader, the Presi-
dent, by his charge that Mr..
Eisenhower, himself, had been
persuaded that McCarthyism
was "the best Republican for
mula for political success"
That made it imperative al
most that Republicans shove
Senator Mccarthy aside, for If
he appeared to reply on the
party's behalf that would have
proved Adlai Stevenson's
charge.
Vice President Nixon offered
a very happy way out, however
he was picked, whether at
President Eisenhower's SUCCESS
ton originally or that and 9TH
ers at about the same time.
For he represents both the
President and the whole party.
Several persons could very
easily have thought Of him
simultaneously, for he seems
the logical answer to the long
er term problem of Republican
strategists as well as the i'm
mediate one.
This Is to find some one to
take the Communist issue
away from Senator Mccarthy
and still keep it alive and use
full in the campaign. Earlier.
it may be recalled. Attorney
General Brownell tried that by
digging UP the dead Harry
Dexter White and involving
former President Truman. But
that did not push Senator Nc
Carthy into obscurity.
Assigning Vice President
Nixon to the role makes much
more sense. It was he who
was chiefly responsible for
uncovering Alger Hiss. That,

between the futile effort Of
communism to win q SubStan-
tial number Of Americans to
it's banner and the existence OF
a conspiracy by a small group
to inflltrate our Government
departments and secure in
formation for Soviet Russia.
The attitude of Mr.. Truman
ever since 1916 has been one
of minimizing the Importance
of the Communist conspiracy.
He wrote throughout his adj
ministration letter after letter
pooh-poohing the Communist
menace, and 1t was this at
titude of disbelief in the Com
munist capacity to conduct a
conspiracy inside the United
States that led him to ignore
the FBI charges against Harry
Dexter White. The same at
titude of blind skepticism was
exhibited by the late President
Roosevelt when Whitaker
Chambers confessed to the
Government that he had been
a spy and told that Alger Hiss
was guilty of completely in the
espionage which he Cham
bers) had been carrying on.
It was this which produced
the climate of indifference
inside Washington toward the
Communists and their agents.
It was only when the anti
Communist crusade began in
Congress that the Department
of Justice, under the last ad-
ministration. started to do
anything toward prosecuting
the Communists.
It is not surprising that Mr..
Truman should remain un-
convinced about the depth Of
Communist penetration in
Washington and its effect on
international policy. but it is
most surprising that a man
as well informed as Senator
Flanders, Republican, of YER
mont should make a speech in
the Senate asking what pos
sible connection there is be-
tween the anti-Communist

the nine-week interval between

ferences, the Laniel admins

ton French public opinion to

The thought that Is begin

the surrender of Indo-C China

Such an arrangement would

permit her to withdraw her
military contingents from Wet
Nam and Laos. But in doing
so she must give up forever
an area which could remain
in the French Union and be as
helpful as the former British
dominions are now to Great
Britain.
Moreover. the United States
