Today's McCarthy report~ to stir up verbal - ~ fireworks ~ ;( 8' 1'lle '°" Wftieh - the Senate convene, to consider the committee reconaendation that Senator McCarthy of Wisconsin be censured on two counts. Prompt inquiries IIIOftl the legislators reveal a sharp division of opinion. Scae - favoring the report. Others - agin it. The connittee took up five ' charges againat the Senator:- • Ont• his attitude, when he defied a Senate coaa questioning h i s ~ = t C ~ d e f i e d --- - . " ~ questioning ~s financial affairs. oday' sf report c a Ida conduct "contemptuous, contumat1ous and denunciatory. " Arter these large words, the verdict is - let him be censured -------- - - - Another accusation - the Zwicker affair. McCarthy - charged with abusing the General. Saying - he didn't deserve to wear the uniform. The committee calls this "inexcusable, reprehensible." So let him be censured. MCCARTHY - 2 On the three other counts ' no censure 1s reconmended· 'J but 1 McCarthy is c riticized . . His invitation to government employees, asking them to give him secret information, is called - 11 improper: 11 s for the so-called FBI letter, which the Senator presented at the Army-McCarthy hearings - that ls called a "grave error.u Another charge - that McC rthy · abused his fellow Senators Calling Senator Flanders of Vermont - "senile." The findingM ~J~ /\ is "improper. 11 But the committee notes that the McCarthy remark had been provoked by remarks tha~ Flanders made. On the whole, the report is one of stinging criticism. Censure recommende on two counts - blame, without censure, - - - - on the oth~ three. A. From the McCarthy side - an immediate reaction. The Senator - to defend himself fully and at length, when the report c omes up at a s pecial session, November Eighth. So stated by McCart~y's attorney. The Senator himself - being IICCARTHY - 3 unavai labl e. He has a si nu s c ondition, an d ls in Arizona. But, throu h h i s lawyer, he says - he'll answer, and how! This - to bea d ed to other indications of copious verbal f ireworks. If the Senate follows the reconnnendation, it won't mean -- i;uf- any kind of penalty, except verbal chastisement I\ words.
