Demos Charge
Sen. McCarthy Is
“Fraud And Hoax”
q — —
WASHINGTON, (/P)—“A fraud
and a hoax” — that’s the vlabel
slapped on Republican Senator
McCarthy’s communists - in - gov
ernment charges by the Democrat
ic majority of a Senate investigat
ing committee. A report signed
by all three Democrats on the
committee — Senators Tydings
(Md.), Green (R. I.), and McMa
hon (Conn.)—asserts that:
McCarthy used “the totalitarian
technique of the big lie” in wag
ing “perhaps the most nefarious
campaign of half-truths and un
truths in the history of this Re
public.”
McCarthy retorted that the re
port of the Democrats is “gigantic
in its fraud and deep in its deceit.”
The Wisconsin Senator added:
t
“It is a signal to the traitors,
communists and fellow travelers
in our government that they need
have no fear of exposure from
: this administration. ....

The Democrats’ report, issued
Monday night, was generally re
garded at the Capitol as one of
the most scathing condemnations
of a Senator ever made by col
leagues. It accused McCarthy of
having lied repeatedly.
The majority said McCarthy
failed to prove any of his basic
allegations, which were fired at
scores of individuals in attacks di
rected at the state department.
McCarthy accused the department
of harboring a lot of communists,
Red sympathizers, and people who
were security risks on other
grounds.
Republican Senator Lodge of
Massachusetts got out a minority
report saying the inquiry into Mc
Carthy’s charges “must be set
down as superficial and inconclu
sive.” he said’ there remain “d tan
gle of loose threads” and “leads
which were not followed up.”

tions action in Korea With a warn
i ing against further aggression
clearly aimed at Marshal Stalin
in Moscow.' His words:
“The free world has made it
clear, through the United Nations,
that lawless aggression will be
met with force. This is the signif
icance of Korea—and it is a sig
nificance whose importance can
not be over-estimated.
“I shall not attempt to predict
the course of events. But I am
sure that those who have it in
their power to unleash or with
hold acts of armed aggression
must realize that new recourse to
aggression in the world today
might well strain to the breaking
point the fabric of world peace.”
Mr. Truman asked that all legal
limits on the size of the armed
forces be lifted to permit increas
ing them “substantially.”
The President also reported to
Congress he has empowered secre
tary of defense Johnson to call to
active duty “as many national
| guard units and as many units
.and individuals of the reserve
! forces of the army, navy, and air
force as may be required.”
The armed services now are
limited by law to 2,005,882 men.
That figure is divided this way:
army 837,000, navy 666,882 and
air force 502,000.
At latest report the actual num
ber* of men under arms was army
593.000, navy 451,000 and air force
407.000.
Mr. Truman laid down his pro
gram in a 5500-word message to
the Senate and House reporting in
detail on what has happened in
Korea and why the United States
again is fighting thousands of
miles from home.
The attack upon the Republic
of Korea,” Mr. Truman said,
*‘makes it plain beyond all doubt
that the international communist
movement is prepared to use arm
ed invasion to conquer independ
ent nations. We must therefore
recognize the possibility that arm
ed aggression may take place in
other areas.”
The President said the increases
in the size of the armed services
and the extra supplies they need
will require additional appropri
ations. Hence in the next few days
he will “transmit to the Congress
specific requests for appropria
tions in the amount of approxi
mately $10,000,000,000.
At home, Mr. Truman said,
there must be “substantial re-di
rection of economic resources” to
insure that defense needs will be
met without bringing on inflation
and its resulting hardship for ev
ery family.

Grace Barger was given a ninety

Korean Roadblock
. " > ■ w ,V|
(By William R. Moore) ;
An American’ Command Post in
Korea, (/P> — Maj. Gen. William
F. Dean personally led an attack
that pulled some of his front line
troops out of Hie fire in Satur
day’s heavy fighting near the
Kum River.
Back here briefly after four
days in the front lines, the com
mander of the U. S. 24th Division
told of the incident last night. He
prefaced it by saying the North
Korean communists had not dent
ed new American lines north of
Taejon, former American head
quarters in South Korea. He said
the reds had not been able to put
their tanks across the shallow
river in forces.
In response to questions, Gener
al Dean told of the personally led
relief give nto infantrymen at a
oradblock in the heavy fighting.
The general said he put his jeep
ahead of two tanks leading an in
fantry column ag&inst the road
.block on the American supply
road.
The infantry in trucks, led by
two armored personnel carriers
and two tanks, was being sent to
relieve heavily pressed troops on
the Kum River line. .J
General Dean, who was tempo* f
rary commander of U. S. troops
in Korea before Lt. Gen. Walton
tt*. Wklker of the Eighth Army ar
rived, said he went forward and
Ipund, the infantrymen had left
the trucks, to deploy. Going far
ther he found the armored cars.
Around another comer the two
tanks.
“Well, I found out that some
body who had the wrong informa
tion had come down that road tell
ing them that Red tanks were
coming against us,” Dean said.
“I told them this was all wrong
and put my jeep in front of the
tanks and started up toward the
roadblock.”
