Eisenhower’s Qualified Nominal
Backing of Senator McCarthy
Draws Blast From a Democrat
'Pv THF ASSOCIATFD PRFSS>
Dwight D. Eisenhower’s quali
fied pledge of support forr Sen.
Joseph McCarthy drew a blast
from a Democrat Saturday that
he places “party responsibility
above any questions of right or
wrong.”
The accusation was made by
Rep. Michael J. Kirwan of Ohio,
chairman of the Democratic na
tional congressional committee.
It came as the dust was settling
on a head-on clash of words—also
over Eisenhower’s stand on Mc
Carthy—between Democratic Sen.
A. S. Mike Monroney of Okla
homa and Republican Sen. Karl
Mundt of South Dakota, each
head of their party’s campaign
speakers bureau.
The three principals at the core
of the presidential campaign dis- ,
pute: GOP nominee Eisenhower; !
Senator McCarthy, seeking Re
publican renomination and re
election in Wisconsin; and Gen. I
George C. Marshall, one-time Sec- j
retary of State, Eisenhower’s j
army benefacor and a target of
McCarthy’s criticism.
In separate statements, Eisen
hower and his vice - presidential
running mate — Sen. Richard M.
Nixon of California — said they
would back McCarthy if he is re
nominated.
Nixon told a reporter in Wash
ington he and Eisenhower, by
backing McCarthy, would not
necessarily be endorsing the anti
communism crusader’s views and
methods.
At a news conference in Denver
later Eisenhower was asked for
comment on Nixon's statement.
He gave it:
No Blanket Endorsement
“I would say to you that I
would support him (McCarthy) as
a member of the Republican or

ganization ... I am not going
to campaign for or give blanket
endorsement to any man who
does anything that I believe to
be un-American in its methods
and procedures.”
But newsmen were not satis
fied with that. They asked for
details. The general was asked
whether he intends to support
McCarthy who, as the reporter
put, had in effect accused Mar
shall ' of being a traitor.
This was in reference to a Sen
ate speech made in which he
linked Marshall to what he called
a “conspiracy in infamy” to
weaken the United States and
strengthen "Russia.
At that, Eisenhower got to his
feet and, in apparent anger, said:
Answers Reporters
“Now look. General Marshall is
one of the patriots of this coun
try, and anyone who has lived
with him, worked with him as I
have, knows that he is a man of
real selflessness . . .
“I have no patience with any
one who can find in his record of
I
service for this country anything
to criticize.”
Eisenhower declined to elab
orate further or to name names.
But aides said this meant he
would give only nominal back
ing to McCarthy if the Wisconsin
senator is renominated.
Sen. Kirwan Comments
Senator Kirwan, commenting
on Eisenhower’s statements, said:
“The general believes that Gen
eral Marshall is a great patriot so
he says he will support Senator
McCarthy, who has sought to be
smirch the character of General
Marshall . . .
“It would then appear that Gen.
Eisenhower places party respon
sibility above any questions of
right or wrong, of justice or moral
principle. This is a peculiar way
to lead a ‘crusade’.”
Monroney said he did not see
how Eisenhower could “swallow”
McCarthy’s criticism of General
Marshall.
Mundt’s retort was that Demo
crats harbor a “Gestapo concept.”
He said Monroney seemed to
think Republicans should follow
what he called the Democrats’
idea that “those who dare dis
agree with the men on top must
be pilloried, punished or purged.”

The Korean War . . .
SEOUL. f/P)—U.S. bombers de
livered a one-two blow at Com
munist supplies last night. Flying
through stormy weather they hit
a 40-acre supply area in North
west Korea and pounded behind
the-front storage depots.
A rain storm swirling over Ko
rea bogged down troops on the
155-mile ground front. Forty Chi
nese firing burp guns made a
thrust at Bunker Hill on the
western front but were beat back
in a torrid 15-minute fight.
The Navy said its operations
were curtailed by heavy weather
but reported that carrier pilots
strafed and bombed Red targets
around Hungnam and Wonsan in
Northeast Korea Saturday. The
heavy cruiser Bremerton and de
stroyer Hollister fired on Com
munist positions at the eastern
end of the battle front.
A dozen Japan-based Super
forts flew through moderate to
intense flak in their first raid
of the war on the 40-acre supply
area at Aniu, 100 miles north of
the Red capital of Pyongyang.
