Strange Show Sen. McCarthy
Is Staging in Attack on Loyalties
By JAMES MARLOW
Washineton. March 18 (&) This is a strange show here . ,
the hearings on Senator McCarthy's attack on the loyalty of
present and former employes of the state department.
No one is predicting how long the hearings will continue. The
Wisconsin republican, McCarthy, hasn t finished reading his list
-""of people upon whom hes cast
ing suspicion.
The five members of the for
eign relations committee's sub
committee, which is conducting
the hearing, are now sort of
sitting back, letting McCarthy
roll off the names.
Movie lights make the room
brilliant. Cameras are busy.
Newsmen line both sides of two
long tables. Policemen keep
traffic moving through the door.
People are continually moving
in, standing or finding scats, and
leaving. The big room in the
senate office building is packed
with them. Every chair is taken.
I Am Not' Former Judge
Dorothy Kenyon is shown as
she told the senate foreign re
lations subcommittee in Wash
ington that "I am not, and
never have been" a commu
nist, a fellow traveller, or a
sympathizer with any organi
zation she knew to be domi
nated by communists. Miss
Kenyon appeared to answer
charges brought by Sen. Jo
seph McCalrthy, who did not
attend the session. (Acme

Delake Monster
Faces Cremation
Delake, Ore., March 16 (U.B
Delake's unclassified "sea mon
ster" will be disposed of later
this week if a combination of
oil, gasoline, and old tires can
feed a fire hot enough to boil
down the remains. Randolph
Allum, operator of the "Tourist
Cafe" here, said today.
"We tried to burn up a chunk
of 'Jughead' the other day with
a gallon of gasoline and five or
six gallons of oil," Allum said,
"but the flesh just curled up."
County Commissioner Jack
Patterson said he had seen all
kinds of sea life, including rem
nants of whales, but the Delake
"monster" was something new to
him. "I'd say It was a member
of the jellyfish or squid group,
he guessed.
Delakers debunked the results
of a chemical analysis of "Jug
head" made shortly after it was
washed ashore. They said an in
complete test was performed by
an Oregon state game commis
sioner when he said the "mon
ster" was whale blubber.
Residents said seagulls refused
to touch "Jughead," even when
pieces were cut off and spread
out on the sand. Delakers said
the aroma of their castaway is
rot too strong yet, but they want
to dispose of the prize before
warm spring weather arrives.
Strange Project
Spotted in Korea
Seoul, March 16 W Com
munist North Korean border
guards are using some strange
projector to send propaganda
handbills into the South Korean
republic, the United Nations
Korean commission said today.
A commission party returned
from a two-day visit to Kang
nung at the eastern end of the
38th parallel which divides the
republic south from the com
munist north.
Commission Chairman Kasim
Gulek of Turkey told a news
conference that a bnttHlion
commander descrbied the use of
a projector of unknown type to
scatter handbills from the red
side of the line.
Botli sides use loudspeakers
to bombard the other with pro
paganda. The Kangnung trip was the
fourth taken by the U.N. group
to study conditions in South
Korea. U. N. representatives
have been refused admission to
the norih, first by the Russians
and since by the North Korean
regime.
The commission has asked
U.N. headquarters at Lake Suc
cess to send eight trained ob
servers to help keep it informed
on any threat to peace in Korea.
The dark-haired and heavy
browned McCarthy, a former
marine, bends his head over his
lists and reads on, naming names.
Newsmen hurry from their ta
bles to send out bulletins on their
wires.
Those news bulletins flash
around the country. Other news
men in other places see the Mc
Carthy charges and if one of the
charges lives nearby, he's quick
ly asked for a statement.
Back across the country flow
the denials of the people Mc
Carthy has just named. It's
"boring," one says. "Fantastic,"
says another. "McCarthy is a
cowardly liar," says another.
People listed as suspects by
McCarthy will be given a chance
to answer him in front of the
same subcommittee and the
lights and cameras.
One of them, Miss Dorothy
Kenyon who testified Tuesday
and flatly denied McCarthy's
charges against her, spoke of the
damage to her reputation and
wondered whether denials could
ever catch up with McCarthy's
charges against her.
Senator Hickenlooper of Iowa,
a republican colleague of Mc
Carthy, questioned Miss Ken
yon and then said he has no
doubt about her loyalty.
Whether the other charges, if
they come1 here to state their
case, will make out well remains
to be seen. But, of course, this
isn t a one-way street for Mc
Carthy.
When he undertook to throw
suspicion on the loyalty of a
number of Americans, he was
sticking his neck away out. If
he can back up his charges, he's
done a public service in un
covering disloyalty.
But if it turns out that he can't
back them up, the public memory
is long, and, although McCarthy
doesn't have to run for re-elec
tion until 1952, this situation
probably will not be forgotten.
Senator Tydings of Maryland,
chairman of the committee, for
the first two days of the hearing
which began last week, gave
McCarthy a rough time, making
him stop every minute to explain
in detail the charges he was
making.
But, beginning Monday, Ty
dings has remained fairly silent,
letting McCarthy rattle off the
names and charges.

Linn Passing
Peak of Idle
Lebanon The season of
slack employment in the East
Linn area is definitely past, Fred
W. Worral, office manager of
the local state employment of
fice, said this week. Increased
hiring and back to work orders
are expected in ever increasing
numbers.
By the first of March a large
number of logging operators,
working at lower elevations, had
swung into action as snow dis
appeared and load restrictions on
roads were lifted. While the lar
ger operators have yet to open
their camps, it is significant that
the number already back at work
bodes well for employment in
this industry.
With a rising lumber market
and favorable weather condi
tions, employment should be
maintained at a relatively high
level during the year, Worral
said.
No new commercial or indust
rial construction permits were
issued in Lebanon during the
past 30 days and building con
struction was confined to small
dwellings and remodeling jobs.
Retail and wholesale business
firms generally experienced a
lull but the outlook is for a sharp
increase within the next 30 to
60 days.
The labor supply is more than
adequate to fill all openings re
ceived at the employment office.
No labor shortage is anticipated
n the foreseeable future, stated
Worral.

Rosalind, 5,
Got Her Wish:
Baby Sister
New York, March 16 W)
Some time ago, five-year-old
Rosalind Fisher decided that the
new addition expected in her
family should be a baby sister.
Nothing else would do.
"Boys always like to fight,"
she explained to her father, Wil
liam Fisher, a yarn shop pro
prietor. "Anyway, they always
fight with me."
Fisher, who was silently root
ing for a boy, told Rosalind that
the newborn's sex would be de
termined by the hospital, which
supplies babies.
.
Rosalind promptly hauled out
her stationery, and with help
from her father on spelling,
wrote:
"Dear hosDital: Mv mnthpr is
coming to your hospital to get
a baby. Please give her a baby
Sister, and I will thank von verv
much. Rosalind Fisher."
Fisher thought that
end of the matter, and that the
letter would never be sent. But
Rosalind had other ideas. She
found a stamp, and gave the let
ter to the postman.
From Beth-El hospital in
Brooklyn came this reply:
"Dear Rosalind. I snnk in
the doctor about vour leitpr Ho
says he hasn't decided yet wheth
er it is going to be a beautiful
baby sister or a wonderful baby
brother. The doctor will tell
your daddy when your mother
comes to the hosDital. (Siunprfl
The Hospital."
Early vesterdav. Mrs Fishpr
gave birth to a seven-pound, 12
ounce girl.
"I knew it all the time," said
Rosalind. "I alreadv hniiphr a
toy. It's a clown you can stick
on a nign cnair, and I'll give it
to her as soon as she comes home
and gets old enough to sit."
Ingrid to Fight
For Daughter
Hollywood, March 16 u.R)
Ingrid Bergman will go to court
to win custody of her 12-year-old
daughter Pia and all the cash
and property she says Dr. Peter
Lindstrom owes her.
The Swedish actress, who left
her child, husband, and estate
to romance with Roberto Rossel
lini on the unromantic isle of
Stromboli, filed suit late yester
day to get back everything but
her husbana.
She divorced Lindstrom in
Mexico last February 9, a week
after presenting her Italian
lover with a son.
Miss Bergman asked a superior
court to grant her custody of
her child by Lindstrom and
make him cough up $134,000 she
says he's holding out on her.
She also requested division of
their community property and
an accounting of all cash, per
sonal and real property she said
Lindstrom is holding with the
Bank of America and '10 other
"John and Richard Does."
The suit is one of the few pub
lic acts the statuesque glamour
girl has made since she renounc
ed Hollywood for the charms
of Roberto. The two lovers are
now in Rome awaiting for Swed
ish authorities to okay her Mex
ican divorce.
Los Angeles, March 16 (U.R)
Mexican mail order divorces,
like the one Ingrid Bergman got
from Dr. Peter Lindstrom, have
been ruled void in California.
Federal Judge Jacob A. Wein
berger handed down the deci
sion yesterday in denying a suit
by Mrs. Kathleen Hiddenga, Seal
Beach, Calif., to collect a $5,000
government life insurance policy
carried by Navy Officer Bouwe
Hiddenga, whom she married
after getting a Mexican divorce.
The judge held that the court
at Chihuahua, Mex., lacked jur
isdiction to dissolve the previous
marriage because neither party
was physically present in court.
He added the divorces were
"contrary to public policy."
N. Y. toHonor
St. Patrick
New York, March 16 W)
Fifth avenue will be about as
green as a meadow in June to
morrow when the colors of the
Irish are strung out in the an
nual St. Patrick's Day parade.
A million New Yorkers are ex
pected to turn out to watch the
five-hour pageant, which begins
at noon at 44th street and moves
northward along Fifth avenue to
96th street.
John J. Sheahan, chairman of
the committee on arrangements,
predicted the "greatest parade
ever." He said more than 100,-
000 persons will take part, com
pared to 95,000 last year.
There'll be 65 marching bat
talions, including numerous cos
tumed Irish societies, and 200
bands.
Grand marshal of the affair is
Police Commissioner William P.
O'Brien. He will march behind
a contingent of the 69th "Fight
ing Irish" national guard divi
sion.
