McCarthy-Pearson
In Word Battle
WASHINGTON. (JP) — Senator
McCarthy (R.-Wis.) and Drew
Pearson have clashed again—this
time in a word battle over com
munism.
McCarthy declared in the Sen
ate late Friday that Pearson serves
as “This Voice off International
Communism.” He called the col
luminist-commentator a “Moscow
directed character assassin.”
Pearson retorted in a statement
that his record “in fighting com
munism ... is well known to ev
eryone—except the headline hap
py Senator from Wisconsin.” He
threatened to sue McCarthy.

Moose Wrecks Car;
Breaks Own Leg
FAIRBANKS </P>—Wind, clouds,
and the midnight sun have proved
no handicaps to four air force
navigators in plotting an unerring j
course on North Pole flights. But
a 1,000 pound moose wrecked
their reckoning Friday.
They were 'hitting a 40-mile-an
hour clip in a car about 30 miles
north of here when the moose am
bled onto the road.
The net result: one damaged
car; four scratched pfficers; one
moose with a broken leg.
The navigators, all of whom!
have at least 10 flights to the j
North Pole in planes of the 375th
Weather Reconnaissance Squad
ron, were Lts. Thomas G. Ray,
Memphis, Tenn.; Keith Gustafson,
Clarinda, la.; Gerald Riley, Coler
aine, Minn.; and Richard T. Mc
Falls, Sterling, 111.
Air force military police shot
the moose, dressed the meat and
sent it to Port Yukon natives.

Truman Silent
On GOP Acheson
I
Ouster Demand
WASHINGTON, (/P) — The for
mal demand of Republican Con
gressmen that President Truman
fire Secretary of State Acheson
hit walls of silence Saturday at
the White House and State De
part ment.
Senator Democratic leader Lu
cas of Illinois told the Senate late
Friday that the Republican party
stands for immediate removal of
the secretary of state was an in
vitation to Stalin to strike any
where. .
Lucas referred td the resolution
adopted earlier in the day by an
overwhelming voice vote taken in
a House Republican caucus. The
resolution was proposed by House
Republican laeder Martin erf Mas
sachusetts.
House speaker Rayburn iD.
Tex.) called it a tragic mistake.
While Lucas was talking Senate
Republicans by a 2 to 5 vote in a
closed door conference adopted
the three paragraph ifouse state
ment but added to it a reserved
pledge of cooperation drafted by
Senator Taft of Chib, the Senate
GOP policy chieftain.
The White House and the state
department declined to comment,
but iMr. TTUihah Said Friday night
in his report to the nation on new
mobilisation goals that ACheson
will fly to Europe Sunday to join
representatives Of other nations in
setting up armed defense for
Western Europe.
Mr .Truman has said repeatedly
in the past that he intends tp keep
Achesbn. The President also has
the reputation of backing his ap
pointees and friends against Con
gressional attacks.
House Approves
Huge Defense
Appropriation Bill
WASftlNOTON, {JP) — Over
whelmingly passed by the House
in record time, a $17,809,364,424
emergency defense bill was
wheeled into position Saturday ac
tion expected this week.
It zipped through the House
late Friday with only one mem
ber speaking against it.
Rep. Vito Marcantonio, Arneri
can-Laborite from New York, who
was defeated for re-election Nov.
7, called it another part of the
* i
“doctrine of the inevitability of
war.”
But his voice of opposition was
drowned out in the thunderous'
voice vote which sent the bill
through the House under suspen-1
sion of the rules less than five j
hours after the appropriations
committee had approved it.
The bill boosts to $42,000 000,000
the defense funds appropriated by
the expiring 81st Congress for
the year ending next June 30. The
appropriations committee said still
more may be needed soon to con
tinue the Korean fight and the
nation’s world wid defense pro- j
