Sen. McCarthy Climaxes Lincoln Day Talk on
-'Traitorous Actions in Government' with Names
Of Four Persons Svith Communist Connections
RENO. Feb. li-tfVSen McCarthy (R-Wis.) who claim! the state
department baa at least 57 card-carrying communisti on its payroll,
hat named names four of them.
v" But after he had mentioned four names in a speech here, follow
ing references to "traitorous actions" by governmnet employes, Mc
Carthy said he was not calling any of the four a traitor or a communist.
Instead, M said, nt snovua nave
I called them "specific cases of peo-Y-
pie with communist connections.
During Lincoln day talk at a
i dinner of Nevada republicans last
i night. McCarthy said this country
i bad failed to grasp its pportuni-
ties to become a world leader at
the end of the war.
!' This, he said,, was "because of
' the-traitorous actions of those who
!; nave been treated so well by this
nation.
if "It has not been tha less for
tunate, or memoeri uv huwv
'groups who have been traitorous
to this nation ... but rather those
who have had all the benefits that
aw. ...AMUkUer vt fkflswt nn aartra ISftC
had to offer ... the finest homes,
the finest - college education and
the finest Jobs in government we
can give," McCarthy said.
"This: is glaringly true In the
state department.: There the bright
vounc men who were born with
silver spoons In their mouths are
- the ones who have been most
' traitorous. . "i .
Specific Cases'
-Now I know it is very easy for
anyone-to condemn a particular
Dureau or atparuneni in scnEru
-terms. Therefore, I would like to
cite some specific cases. I
"When Chiang Kai-shek was
. fighting our war, the state depart
' ment had in China a young man
; named John W. Service. He sent
! back to Washington reports urg
' lng that 'communism was the on
ly hope of China.'
. "Two davs after Dean Acheson
took over as under-secretary of
4 state, this man," John Service, who
: 'had previously urged that com
? munism was the only hope of Chi
K n was net-only reinstated in the
State department, but ; promoted
; . . . and finally, under Acheson,
IZ placed in charge of all placements
. and promotions.
"On Way to CalevtU
' "Today, this man Service is on
rhis way to represent the state de-
partment and Acneson in uaicut
. ta by far and away the most im
' portant listening post in the Far
East."
' , (State department records show
no John W. Service, but John
; Stewart Service now is reported
. enroute to Calcutta as consul. He
: has been named at congressional
hearings as favoring the United
States dealing with communist
i ' China. f ' ,"
(John Stewart Service, born in
.-. Chengtu, China, of American par
'.. cnU, is a longtime foreign service
officer and served as acting for-
: eign policy adviser to Gen. Doug
1 las .MacArthur in Japan, in 1945.
(His name was mentioned of -
; Ccially in congress when an in
. estimation was made oflconfi
'dential government information
which appeared- in the magazine
Amerasia. Three persona were ln-
action was taken against Service.)
Casta ve Damn
Then McCarthy brought up the
; name of Gustave Duran and con-
! tinued: 1
"Duran was made assistant to
the assistant secretary of state in
v charge of Latin American affairs.
Ha was taken Into the , state de
partment from his Job as a lieu
tenant colonel in tha Communist
International brigade,
"Finally after intense congres
sional pressures and criticism he
resigned in 1948 from ; the ' state
department. And where do you
think he la now?
"He took over a high-salaried
r Job as chief of the cultural activi-i-
ties section in the office of the
assistant secretary general of the
; United Nations."
-Denial Issned
(At Old Westbury, N.Y, Duran
. said that "I am not now, nor
ever have ..been, a communist or
a communist sympathizer."
(He said the charge of having
communis! sympaimes was urn
made against him five years ago
by J. Parnell Thomas, . former
congressman and former chairman
of the house unAmerican activi
ties committee.
(An FBI Investigation, he said.
cleared him completely. Duran
added that at the request of his
wife, who comes from New Hamp
shire, Sen. Styles Bridges (R-
N.H.) also made . an investigation
' and that Bridges found "absolute
V ly no grounds" for the accusation.
(Duran, a Spanish-born natural
? lzed citizen, said today he was i
lieutenant colonel not in the- In
- ternational Brigade but in "the
legal Spanish Republican army,
commanding -about 80,000 men,
an or tnem Spaniards. )
McCarthy next mentioned Mrs,
Mary Jane Keeney. saying-aha
was "with the board of economic

warfare in the state department."
He said Mrs. Keeney "was
named in an FBI report and in
house committee report as a
courier for the communist party
while working for the VS. gov-
ment.
Editor In U.N. Boreas
"And where do you think Mrs.
Mary Jane Keeney is?" he asked.
"She is now an editor in the Unit
ed Nations document bureau.
(Mrs. Keeney, 31, is employed
in the documents center at the
U.N., the section which types and
distributes press releases, texts of
resolutions, and other sucn ma
terial. (Last July 25 a report by the
house un-American activities
committee said she once acted as
a courier for the communist party
while working for the U.S. gov?
eminent in France.
(She denied she had acted as
a communist courier and said un
der oath that "I am not and never
have been a member of the com
munist party."-
(The committee report charged
she was seen to pass a large man
ila envelope to a man suspected
of Soviet espionage when she re
turned from a trip to Europe on
March 8. 1948.
(Mrs. Keeney said the .envelope
contained a volume of French
underground resistance literature
and that the incident was "wholly
innocent and trivial.
(She resigned from the state de
partment in July,. 1948.)
Dr. Harlow Shapley
McCarthy s fourth name was
that of Dr. Harlow Shapley,
whom her Identified as "former
director of the" Harvard observa
tory. : w
McCarthy said Shapley headed
a peace congress branded by
President Truman as a "tool of
Russia." He said the astronomer
later was sent by Secretary of
State Acheson to be his represent
ative on the United Nations eco
nomic and social council.
(Shapley has been head of the
Harvard observatory since 1921
and still is. He was chairman of
a peace conference in New York
in March, 1949, sponsored by the
National Council of the Arts,
Sciences and Professions.' It was
attended by delegations from east
ern Europe and was described by
the state department as a sound
ing board for Russian propaganda.
Complete Obsnrdity'
(Shapley said in. New York that
McCarthy's charges were "a com
plete absurdity and a slanderous
lie. It is an irresponsible slander
of a type that brings disgrace to
the senate of which he is a mem
ber."
(He said he had "never held
a state department position." )
After the talk, a reporter asked
McCarthy If, as the text of his
speech indicated, he had called
these four people traitors.
"I did not," he said. "And you
will notice I didn't caU them com
munists, either."
He added:
"I dont care if these people
sue me. It might give me a,platr
form from which to expose them.
Reminded that he had called the
four people "specific cases," he
was asked: "Specific cases of
what?"
"WelL I should have had a line
in .there saying they were speci
fic cases of people with commun
istic connections," he replied.

what the Statue or uuaaaiupe.
Tha CuadalUDO Statue OZ the Vir-
gin Mary , is much venerated Dy

But thrones continued to arrive,
many expressing faith in the re- i
port of a vision. When tne crowus
refused to disperse last night

way to disperse the crowd. He
was booked on suspicion of dis
orderly conduct and drunkenness.

Slot Machine
Control to Get
FederalHelp
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12 -P-
Slot machines the so-called "one
armed bandits" get close federal
scrutiny here this week and the
result may well be that the gov
ernment will soon step in to help
the states control them.
The machines have been given
top billing at Attorney General
McGrath's crime conference which
will bring together federal, state
and local law enforcement author
ities on Wednesday.
The importance which the de
partment attaches to the get-together
is pointed up by announce
ment that President Truman will
personally address the gathering.
To inmate Ne Drives'
Since the sessions were called.
the attorney general's staff hae
emphasized that the federal au
thorities are not themselves ini
tiating "any drives" in the local
law enforcement field.
They say they are simply offer
ing whatever government coop
eration is legally possible in the
fields of organized crime, gambl
ing and the operations of gambl
ing syndicates.
FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover
recently lumped these fields in
endorsing a pending bill by Rep.
Preston (D-Ga) to forbid inter
state shipment of slot machines,
or even the shipment of machine
parts which might be assembled at
the receiving end.
Slew Up Operations
Hoover said such a ban would
undoubtedly "slow ud the o Dera
tions" of gambling syndicates. He
commented:
"Gambling today is the nest egg
of the criminal underworld which
operates throughout this country."
However, as the laws now
stand, gambling like murder is
classed as a local .enforcement
problem. There is no federal sta
tute against gambling, as such.
Thus, if the government moves
in on the slot machines, it will be
taking a pioneer step into an area
previously handled by the indi.
vidual states, with varying sue
cess.
'Hate America1
Day Scheduled
In Dresden
LONDON. Feb. 12-P)-Spurred
by communist propaganda, the
people of Dresden have been ask
ed to celebrate a "Hate America"
day tomorrow the fifth anniver
sary of the city's wartime bomb
ing by British and American
planes.
Available information here In
aicaiei mat tne bombing- was
made in close collaboration with
the Russians, who now hold the
city as part of the Soviet zone of
occupied Germany.
Royal air force records for the
February 13-13 air raids are un
available but news accounts point
to tne iact the raids were intended
to assist the army of Soviet Mar
shal Georgi Zhukov, which was
marching west.
The London Daily Mail of Feb
ruary 16, 1945, reported that a
senior RAF officer had been with
Soviet commanders estabiishine
closer liaison for air assaults. On
the same day the Daily Express
said that Dresden had been used
as a rail and road junction to
pump German troops into the
counterattacks against Zhukov's
army.
The Telegraph said that while
no official comment was made in
Moscow, it could be taken for
granted that the raids "do not pass
unappreciated, especially by red
army men, who can see clearly
the glow of destruction brought to
important German war bases in
the path of their advance."
Communist President Wilhelm
Pieck of the East German repub
lic wrote a letter to the mayor of
Dresden in connection with to
morrow's observance inveighing
against the "senseless destruction'
by American bombers and "the
Anglo-Americans who prepare a
new war."

Neuberger wove in a timely ref

cited Secretary of State Dean Ach

"I think Acheson's stand was

Hitchcock noted that church

organized vice element is. "We call
ourselves 'children of God' but we

Conservatives have had opportuni

This was the way he said "we
