McCarthyism Under The MugnoIias

several less prominent individ-
uals and groups. It's revelations"
were often without relevance.
Perhaps the whole performance
of equating controversial issue
with Communism and then iden-
tifying as fellow travellers those
people interested in confronting
the issue seems anachronistic to
Americans outside the South,
where McCarthyism is only a
bitter memory. But to many
people in the South it is a sig
nificant thermometer rejecting
the epidemic already in their
midst, and a barometer suggest
ing the proportions of attacks
yet to come.
AS McCarthyism moves South
under the magnolias, most OF
those against whom the search
for subversives appears to be
directed are not political Com
munists as much as racial nom
conformists, people who seek a
reasonable way of abiding by
the Supreme Court ruling on de-
segregation of the public schools,
while those who would subvert
the law by defiance and maneu-
yer designate themselves the
super-patriots and inquisitors.
BY their words the investigates
are seeking out Southerners
'soft on Communism" by their
acts they are singing out South
erners "soft on segregation"
Of course, the very. fact that
they feel this necessary indicates
the absence of monolithlc
South, and reveals that there
are many Southerners who abhor
the present dilemma and are
willing to work for solution.
But the nature of this crisis, with
its pull from the past and its
emotional undertow, makes it
especially susceptible to Nc

"At a time when the south
might well use a renewed vision
of Robert E. Lees virtue or Andy
Jackson's vigor," young South
ern liberal said recently, "it
seems a shame that we should
choose to start reviving the
spirit of Joe Mccarthy"
An embattled social scientist in
Atlanta summed up the situation
during a conversation: zone
trouble outsiders have in under
standing our present difficulties
is the culture-lag in the South.
Mccarthy never caught on down
here back in his heydey, but as
the 1ast-ditcI fit for segrega-
ton grows, more desperate, all
his ugly techniques are revived.
At the end of theadecade were
in the throes of an experience
the rest of the country put behind
it in the early Fifties."
One recent example came, per-
haps with some appropriateness
in the legislative halls of the ma
TONS capital. When Representa-
tive Dale Afford, newly elected
Congressman from Arkansas, pre-
sented his maiden speech in the
House in February, the proposed
subject of his discourse was only
slightly less sensational than the
whirlwind eight-day paste IN
campaign which had won him
victory over veteran Representa-
tive Brooks Hays in last Novem-
ber's election.
Voicing alarm cat the complac-
ency of some officials toward the
menace of the Communist con-
spiracy -. to make this great ma
ton of ours part of one world

cow" Representative Afford then
announced he would reveal the
close alliance between Commun-
ism and "racial agitation" in the
South.
The speech was founded large

New Rochelle, N. Y.


New Rochelle, N. Y.
Dear P. D.:
AS everyone with any sense of
reality knows, including the most
biased damyankees the way
Southern white people treat Ne
groes bears little resemblance to
the way the Nazis treated their
fellow Germans whom they found
so convenient to attack, humil-
late and deprive of ordinary cit
izen rights.
There are no Southern con-
centration camps, or gas cham
bers busily in operation for the
Negroes-although keeping them
enclosed behind an unfriendly
gauze curtain to impress their
'inferiority" upon them may be
small form of placing them in
confinement; and an occasional
outburst of pure whitehot vio-
lence ending in castration or
death may be subtle substitu-
ton for the gas chamber.
Since most pink-skinned peo-
pie, like most other people, are
decent folks, I'm sure they de-
plore quietly in their consciences
what the average Negro has to
live with in his daily rounds. Still
there is a point of similarity be-
tween the timidity of the decent
pink Southerner and the decent
German who, under Hitler, also
looked the other way"
For the pink-faced man and
woman of any education in the
South who winces at what his
fellow. Souther1lefsaofAdarker-hae
are denied as human beings, it
can't be a question of taking a
public stand in the name of right,
or fairness, or Christianity or
even Americanism. Naturally, it's
a m a TT r, instead, of timidly
keeping quiet in order not to
have ones child barred from a
neighboring kids birthday party;
or to lose the chance of an adj
vance in one job; or to be cold
shouldered by friends" who are
equally tirnid.
An otherwise decent Southern
man who shows his pink face IN
the mirror each morning knows
that there's no law which re-
quires him to ask himself, care
you MANI" His beard is almost
convincing proof that he is at
least partly so; and, besides, the
much more practical question is,
"How much in a material sense
would l lose if I spoke my mind,
if spoke up for decency, if |
followed Christian teachings on
weekdays" Obviously, the teach
ings of Jesus the Jew is a Sun
day-only matter, if that; and de-
serves little active response in
the practical weekday world OF
getting along" When shaving,
sticking ones chin out does not
necessarily require sticking ones
neck out. Jesus was crucified for
His willingness to take a stand,
and one crucifixion is, logically,
enough. There's enough taxes to
render unto Caesar as it is.
The same inner conflict be-
tween what one senses to be
right, and what one does public
ly and actively, is still affecting
today's Germans, according to a
German newspaper published IN
Hamburg.
An active minority in West
Germany-not unlike the few,
wild-eyed musclemen who made
a laughing-stock of this nation at
Little. Rock and not unlike the
muscleheaded White Citizens
Council members all through the
South-are still whooping it up
against the Nazis' pet whipping
boy, the Jew.
