Watkins Promises 'No More Wrangles' :
With McCa rthy During Censure Debates
By RAYMOND LAHR
and HERBERT FOSTER
UP Staff Correspondents
Washington (U.R) Sen.
Arthur V. Watkins (R-Utah), said
Saturday he will have "no more
wrangles" with Sen. Joseph R.
McCarthy during the Senate
censure debate.
Watkins, chairman of the
committee that recommended
censure of the Wisconsin Re
publican, said he will not in
terrupt his speeches in the fu
ture to answer oral questions by
McCarthy or any other senator.
He said he would answer only
questions submitted in writing
or posed in speeches by other
senators. - ;
Watkins announced he will
take the floor Monday to speak
on the censure issue when Sen
ate debate resumes Monday. At
the end of his opening speech
Wednesday, Watkins was ques
tioned at length by McCarthy
and the two exchanged angry
charges.
Recalling that the senator who
has the floor can decide whether
to yield to a questioner, Watkins
told newsmen: "I can't use the
gavel to silence McCarthy, as he
did in the censure .committee
hearings, but I can determine
how I extend courtesies."
Rome Newspaper Asks
Distribution to Army
Washington (U.R) Assistant
Defense Secretary Fred A.
Seaton said Friday the Rome
Daily American definitely will
be distributed in Europe by the
Army if servicemen want the
newspaper. ,
Ray Vir Den, publisher of the
Rome English - language news
paper, : has charged the Army
newspaper Stars and Stripes has
refused to: distribute the Daily
American after first agreeing
to do so. Stars and Stripes han
dles distribution of newspapers
and periodicals at U. S. military
installations in Europe. i
Seaton said he has had a re
port from the Army in Europe
that the Daily American matter
is under study and that he him
self plans to "get to the bottom"
of the controversy. '
"All publications are going to
be treated fairly," Seaton said.
"If there is a demand" for the
paper b- servicemen, "certainly
there's going to be distribution."
DIVERSIFIED HOPES
Mexico City (U.R) Domini
can playoff-diplomat Porfirio Ru
birosa expressed "great hope"
Saturday ; of winning both the
fifth Pan American highway race
and the hand of Zsa Zsa Gabor
in marriage.
ASK FOR
... n ,
witn the Senate In recess,
McCarthy flew to Milwaukee for
a speech Saturday. His friends
continued work on a compromise
plan which they intend to offer
in the Senate Monday or Tues
day in an effort to soften the
censure move.
In Milwaukee Friday night,
McCarthy again predicted the
Senate would vote to censure
him. He said Democrats and
"left-wingers who ran under the
Republican banner" had the
votes to put the censure resolu
tion over. McCarthy predicted
only the "Taf t-type" Republicans
would support him.
Refuses
To Give Apologies
To Hendrickson
Milwaukee, Wis. U.R) Sen.
Joseph R. McCarthy says he
isn't going to apologize to any
one, so the Senate might just
as well go ahead and censure
him. v
McCarthy, arriving here Fri
day night to attend a testimonial
dinner, told newsmen he hopes
the censure will be over with'
soon "so we can get on with the
work we've got to do."
The Wisconsin Republican's
refusal to apologize applied spe
cifically to Sen. Robert C. Hend
rickson (R-NJ), target of a slur
ring remark by McCarthy. -
"Bob Hendrickson is a good
friend, and . I like him," Mc
Carthy said. "If I could say any
thing that may make him feel
better, I would but I have no
plan for an apology."
McCarthy planned to ,. limit
himself to a few "brief remarks"
at the dinner in 'his honor last
night.
Sen. Barry M.'Goldwater (R
Ariz.) is the featured speaker
at the $5-a-plate dinner. Gold
water, in a statement Friday,
said the Communists had started
the original censure move to
4,get McCarthy." He said if Mc
Carthy is censured, the next
Communist drive : would, . be
against FBI Chief J. Edgar
Hoover.
. Chairmen for the event, spon
sored by Milwaukee County's
Republican groups, said the pro
ceeds from the 1,300 reservations
would be used to pay for radio
time to. broadcast Goldwater's
speech over 13 Wisconsin radio
stations.

He said the Senate should
vote on the censure issue so "we
can get on with the work we've
got to do in -fighting Commun
ists." '
Meanwhile, Sen. A. S. (Mike)
Monroney, (D-Okla.), a long-time
McCarthy foe, said in an inter
view that the general tone of
McCarthy s remarks during the
censure debate "is proving the
committee's case." '
Says Censure More Fair
."We're not a jury,". Monroney
said. "We're eyewitnesses to a
continuing series of contempts
qf the Senate and its official
bodies. We set up a committee
which carefully selected . the
fairest approach possible,- and
then the first day the Senate
returns, McCarthy calls it a
'lynching bee and the commit
tee 'unwitting handmaidens' of
the Communists." : r-
Sen. Herman Welker, R-Ida.),
who defended McCarthy on the
floor, said he would not com
ment on a "silly statement like
that." ': ..- .;;.
Sources friendly to McCarthy
said they hope to have ready by
Monday a substitute for the cen
sure resolution which would put
the Senate on, record as dis
claiming some of McCarthy's
harsher words but . would not
censure him. The proposal also
would praise McCarthy for
alerting the nation to the men
ace, of Communism, one source
said. .
