He did not mention Eisen hower and he said this was "not a Democratic nor a Republican matter. But he called for the election in November of a Congress that will stop "sending American money to nations which ship the sinews of war" to Communist China while hundreds of Ameri can service men are "being brain-washed in Communist bloodstained dungeons." "BLOOD TRADE" This is the same "blood trade" issue on which he has challenged Eisenhower before. The adminis tration lakes the position the United States in its own interest should aid other free nations even when those nations engaged in. limited trade with the Red bloc. Earlier the running feud be tween McCarthy and Sen. Sy mington (D-Mo) hit a new fever he said, "1 think I never really 1 destroy the reDutation and take auged your cruelty or your the jobs away from the young men who were working In my recklessness He went on lo describe Fisher as a brilliant younn man a mpm. ber of the Young Republican League in Newton. Mass. And he said he regretfully sent Fisher DaeK to lioston when the young man told him he was a member of the Lawyers' Guild while he was in law schools, and for some1 months afterward. "Little did 1 dream," Welch said, "you could be so reckless and so cruel as to do an injury to that lad. I fear he shall always bear a scar needlessly inflicted by you. If it were in my power to forgive you for your reckless cruelty, I would do so. I like to think I am a gentleman, but your forgiveness will have to come from someone other than me."

I will not ask Mr. Cohn any date school and was discharged from the service in 1946 as a first lieutenant. Fisher, president of the Repub lican Club of Newton, has said he belonged to the lawyers guild while in law school and for a few months thercatter, resigning about four years ago. He has said he was never a member of the Communist party Chairman John B. Stetson of mm Ely off IIla,,Vl MnP..IU., fi.. U..I. ,U.( lir.t.

Neither senator made a firm commitment on any specific time for testifying, however. In their bitter exchange Mc Carthy referred to Symington as an "alleged man" and heavily im plied he once paid off a known Communist and took the money from the pay cheeks of St. Louis factory workers. Symington hotly denied the accusation, which Mc Carthy first made against him two years ago. , The climatic encounter be tween Welch and McCarthy came after the Boston lawyer using irony as his weapon tried to show Cohn "sat on" evidence of alleged subversion in the Army instead of taking it to Secretary Stevens and saying: "Sic 'em, Stevens." BURSTS OF LAUGHTER McCarthy flushed under recur rent bursts of laughter from spectators at this line of ques tioning, and later struck out at Welch. He declared the elderly Army counsel originally brought to Washington as one of his aides a young lawyer associated with his firm, Fisher, who was McCarthy said a member of the National Lawyers Guild after that organ ization was listed as subversive by the house Committee on Un- American Activities. "I don't think," McCarthy said, "you can find any place, any where, an organization which has done more to defend Communists . ... to defend espionage agents and to aid the Communist cause, than the man whom you origin ally wanted down here at your right hand. but Welch interrupted: Let us not assassinate this lad further, senator. You have done enough. Have you left no sense of decency?" McCarthy would not he quieted. more questions. You, Mr. Chair- the Newton Republican City Corn man, may, if you will, call theimittce called McCarthy's attack next witness." unwarranted and said his group At his home in Newton, Mass., Fisher said he did not want to comment on the exchange be tween Welch and McCarthy, de claring has complete confidence in Fish er, a member. Atty. Gen. Brownell has served notice of intent to place the Na tional Lawyers Guild on his list i Hnn't want in hp a world! of subversive organizations, but celebrity. I just want to lead a!'ne U.S. Court of Appeals tempo- quiet life. I've decided that it's ramy diuckeu mm in a ueeision better for me not to say anything and to allow Mr. Welch to con tinue in his own way, in that I am not assisting him in the Army's case." Fisher said he did not see the exchange on television because he and his wife were visiting friends in the western part of the state. The young attorney enlisted in May 4. It said legal issues remain lo be threshed out. In New York, the guild said in a statement that McCarthy had cited an "old and discredited" re port from the House Un-American Activities Committee. The guild said it "is not a Com munist organization nor a Communist-front organization, nor Communist dominated." QUALITY 35 MM. J COLOR OR HACK and WHITE COATED 50 MM.
