Harris, New USIAA Aide,
Once Mccarthy Victim

After attacks from the late
Senator Joseph r. Mccarthy,
Reed Harris resigned in 1858
as deputy administrator OF the
International Information Ad-
ministration. He wrote book:
How To Get A Job When
You're Over 35."
Tomorrow the 51-year-old
Washington writer will settle
into a new job that will be al
most the same one he left.
Edward R. Murrow, director Of
the United States Information
Agency, has appointed Mr..
Harris his executive assistant.
The job is the No. 4 spot
in USIA, the agency that has
absorbed the old functions OF
the ia.
The appointment reaffirms
the loyalty of Mr.. Harris, one
of the few men to strike at
Senator Mccarthy at the height
of his power.
Senator Mccarthy h a d
reached back to Mr.. Harris
student days at Columbia Uni
versity and to a book. King
Football" he had writ tie n
shortly after leaving Columbia.
(Mr. Harris also atte n d d
Staunton Military Academy
and, after Columbia, George
Washington University
Mr.. Harris acknowledged he
expressed views in the book
that he regretted" But he
pointed out that in his long
Government service he had been
investigated several times and
cleared.
Witnesses in the hearing
room cheered as Mr.. Harris told
the Senator he was using in
nuendos to try to wiring my
public neck"
1--WE never been a Commun-
ist, never wanted to be one
and never will be one" said Mr.
Harris.
Senator Mccarthy said his
Senate committee had beer
waiting three days for Mr.
Harris to give us some evil
dence" he had changed his
views from those of the 20
year-old book.
The late Thomas L. Stokes
wrote of the hearing in his
column in The Star: "A venge-
full impulse was very clear in
the Mccarthy treatment of Mr.
Harris. Only when you
watch Senator Mccarthy op-
crate can you appreciate how
difficult can become the de-
fense of any mans character.

up to eat it. This has been
going on all summer for
many summers. I plead for
advance information, but
they are too busy working to

were in the fields here, I fixed
dinner. A 1890 phone call to
mom-in-law tells me that she
had to whip up a quickie
lunch for them. Sometimes
the situation is reversed, and
she is left with a meal and
no eaters. I have heard this
complaint from other farm

New England Primer Valuable

One of the favorites of COL
lectors specializing in early
New England books is the
anonymous New England
Primer" first published in
1927 and presumably written
by Benjamin Harris.
A fine copy is worth a
minimum of $3.50 and pos
sibly much more. There were
many subsequent eighteenth
century printings, all of
which are collected. Typical of
these is the 1777 version, the
the title page of which reads,
in part, as follows:
THE NEW ENGLAND
PRIMER IMPROVED .
TO WHICH IS ADDED The
Assembly of Divines, and Mr..
Cotton's Catechism. BOS-
TON. 1777.
A copy of the improved
primer of this period is worth
up to 500 at retail if in fine
condition.
Most of the primers of the
time were bound in wooden
boards. They averaged
around 80 pages.

If he is over 40-or even

But I hope what say

give him the courage to have

truth: Not all blood splitting
is due to serious disease.
Many cases that I have
seen live out long and use
full lives, no cause for the

others, a severe cold or virus
infection sometimes is the
cause. Then, there are those
who get bleeding occasionally
if they are suffering from
chronic bronchitis or from
the condition known as

patient has a chronic cough

FAMOUS FABLES
By E. E. EDGAR

MAJORITY: -Conduc-
tor Serge Koussevitzky, an
opinionated man, was not
one to compromise with his
musical convictions.
At one time, in Russia, he
asked several friends to join
him in a music publishing
venture. Knowing that he
usually insisted on having
his own way, they hesitated.
They finally agreed to come
in when he assured them
that he would abide by the
majority opinion.
After the company had
been in business for a few
months, a manuscript was
submitted by a young COM
poser nam ed StravinSky.
Koussevitzky thought it was
great and wanted to publish
it, but the others didn't like
it and turned it down.
IT'S a fine work." pro-
tested KousSevitzky. I'VE
must publish it.
Remember, Serge" they
reminded him, you promised
to let the majority rule"
"All right, all right. I'm
a man of my word" said
Koussevitzky. Then he added,
"Of course, if you don't
publish it, I'll form a new
company and publish it my
self"
Faced with this ultimatum,
the others reversed their de-
cision and the composition
was accepted.
