These Were Not Communists

Have you a bureau in your home and
do you know how many ages ago they
came into common use? And do you
know that every large industry there
are many bureaus? Last summer 1 was
shown old redemption tax certificates
issued to my grandfather during our
civil war, which had been filed away
in one of these old bureaus. Too, we
have government bureaus. They are
just as Indispensable in the government
as in your home. How do you think it
would be possible for the government
to carry on without them? How would
you get, say a birth certificate or
other useful information without these
bureaus?
OF course it is to be expected that
because of the enormous business the
government is trying to do for you
that among it's thousands of employees
there is apt to be some hidden pigeon
holes On the other hand these heads
of departments for political purposes
can find so-called subversives. But for
the first time in the history of our
government it is now apparent that
at least in one department it is being
used as a kennel for Bird Dogs

characteristic response. After going all
the way around Robin Hoods barn and
using up lot of words, they both for

of one right way to do something or
anything to correct a practice they

Mr.. Hamilton has reduced his charge
of wrongdoing on the part of the ad
ministration from 1000 to 99.99 %.
However he has still failed miserably
and completely to point out one single
specific case of wrongdoing, together
with his suggestion and verbal blue
print, as to how it could and why it
should be corrected. My challenge still
stands.
He also intimates that he cannot

It's already crumbling. Ike's Crusade
for Freedom has proved to be free
dom for few teaches, to rob the farm
er and producer and hold up the con-
sumner.
The Democrats say Ike is giving
away our natural resources which be-
long to all the people, which are our
birthright as American citizens, and
should not be sold for a mess of pot
tage. Fifty million dollars for a cam
paign fund, to back the monopoly
controlled press, is but a pittance to
the billions of wealth Ike has given in
return for it.

that it was held following James Pat

The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1954-03-08
BY JACK BELL

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. ZION the
heels of Adlai E. Stevenson's
criticism of President Eisenhower
for failing to put the brakes on
Sen. Mccarthy (R-Wis). two Dem
ocratic senators today agreed that
economic issues should outweigh
McCarthy's activities in the par
TVS 1854 campaign strategy.
In a speech creating the general
impression here he is actively in
the field for the 1856 Democratic
presidential nomination, Stevenson
said Eisenhower could stop what
the former Illinois governor called
. campaign by Mccarthy to "sow
SANDER and dissension" across the
nation.
Although he said he agreed gen.
orally with that conclusion, Sen.
Magnuson (D-Wash) said he is
not too sure of either the timing
or the importance that Stevenson
gave to Mccarthy and his Com
munist-in- government charges. He
was joined by Sen. Murray 3D.
MONT.
"Come next fall, when control
OF Congress is decided at the polls,
I think the fiscal policies the Re-
publicans have put into effect are
going to be the most important
ISSUE" MagnusOn said in an inter
view.
Stevenson's charges in a speech
here Saturday night that McCar-
thy's investigation threatened a
"malignant and fatal totalitarian'
ism" and that out of two million
federal employees "only one al
legged active Communist has been
found" brought a hot reply from
Mccarthy.
at was a very clever political
talk designed to cloud the issues,
Mccarthy said in an interview.
"The speech reminded me of a
story. My brother and ! went to
my fathers barn long time age
to clean 1t out. We disagreed how
it should be done. If Stevenson
had been there he would have KEPT
trying not to clean 1t out at all
what the Republicans are try
Ing to do is clean up the Demo
cratic mess. We don't always
agree on how the job should be
done, but we all agree it must
be DONE"
Mccarthy said he campaigned
for Eisenhower in 1852 and $50
campaign for him again today
''Not that l think he's perfect
Mccarthy said, "but the President
is right s5 per cent of the time
which is q very big average"
Mccarthy said he thought what

Stevenson was so "stirred UP
about" was the fact that Eisen-
hover "does not object to exposure
of Communists in the Army or
elsewhere"
Sen. Magnuson, a staunch sup
porter of Stevenson in the 1852
campaign, said he believes the
country is sliding into a business
recession and the Democrats ought
to blow every warning horn they
are able to sound.
Backing this up, Sen. Murray
said in separate interview he
also feels the Democrats should
stress economic issues and not pay
so much attention to Mccarthy and
his charges.
II agree with Stevenson that we
cannot afford to have the terrible
division among the American
people that the Republican lead.
ers seem to be encouraging Nc
Carthy to create" the Montana
senator said.
but there are even more i'm.
portant things and one Of the most
important is to do something now
about our sinking economy. The
voter whose pay check is missing
or cut to the point where he can't
sustain his family is going to be
a lot more interested in that than
all this talk about Communists in
government"
Stephen A. Mitchell, Democratic
national chairman, told a news
conference here yesterday that
Stevenson's speech was carried
free on CHS television and NBC
radio. In the past Mccarthy has
demanded and obtained equal time
to answer former President Tru-
man and other Democratic speak
ers who have attacked him.
Mccarthy said he wanted equal
time on national radio and tele.

Broadcasting Co. and the Colum.

have received no such request

of attending Democrats that he is

at a National Jefferson-Jac kson
Banquet in Washington May Sc.
Elsewhere it was learned that
plans are under way for another
regional appearance for Stevenson
in San Francisco in June.

Pakistan Votes
Today To Elect
New Assembly

DACCA, Pakistan R-The voters
of Pakistan's jute-producing east
ern portion trooped to the polls to-
day to elect a 309-member East
Pakistan Assembly. The main is
sue was whether the area should
loosen its political ties with the
central Karachi government, sep
arated from it by more than 1000
miles of India.
Twenty million of the states a
million inhabitants were eligible to
vote in the first elections held I'M

Britain created the Moslem nation
in 1947 and gave it freedom.
With East Pakistan's jute In
dustry bringing in over 10 per cent

A million of the nations rs mil
lion people living there, the threat
of the strong separatiSt movement
created a major problem for the

ment.
The league, which now controls
the East Pakistan government
headed by Chief Minister Nugul
Amin, was expected to win a ma
jority in the Assembly but a strong
opposition could imperil the coun.
try's unity.
Separatist leaders, lined up in
a five-party opposition front, con-
tend "Karachi treats us like some
kind of colony" despite the states
population and foreign exchange
production. They want the Kara
chi government to have control
only of their defense, foreign af-
fairs and communications, with all
other governmental power left to
the state.

Use For Old Ping
Pong Balls Found

LOS ANGELES R-N wasn't
easy, but Milt Forrest has at last
found q use for his collection OF
500 cracked table tennis balls,
which he calls the worlds largest.
Forrest is a graduate student
at the University of Southern
California and an official of the
Southern California Table Tennis
Assn.
He began saving busted balls In
the hope of finding a way to re-
pair them cheaply. When he had no
luck, he went to the chemistry
department, which told him there
was no way to fix them for less
than the price of new ones.
Then he heard the chemists were
on the lookout for tennis balls,
which are larger.
He fastened to give them his
|prized store, because they were
perfect for what the chemists
wanted-balls to make models
showing the structure of atoms.
