But a pessi- mist said he had it straight from the State House in Trenton that the highway would go all the way around cemetery and then hit us. Everybody felt that a good clean death—like having the highway driven straight through you—was far better than the crippling wound of the highway creasing your prop- erty. Nobody, in short, wanted to live by the side of the road and be a friend to man. Well, I wish I could report a courier had just galloped in from Trenton with a message there nev- er will be a highway coming this way. Actually no new word has come. Actually, as we were say- ing last night on the porch, life isn’t like that. Yet I can report some good news. Nobody has talked about the high- way in several months now. That fellow has finished painting his .|bome. I have spread much fer- tilizer and top soil on our lawn. Life goes on. ‘ The good news around here, I -| think, is that people now feel ab- solute permanence is too much to ask in this or any time. The sense of permanence must be in us and not in our house. If it bits us we'll move and be- gin again somewhere else. If it misses us wide we'll stay. And, as we said on the porch last night, if it creases us we might just live beside the highway and be a friend to man. : BOYLE But my Schaefers on’ - *And leant wait fo taste that ‘#0 wonpan ms so e00D-i15 tangy bouqnet. flavor and clean, Order for the enjoyment of it!

McCarthy’s donation to the Kiwanis Club auction brought $6 less than a baseball autographed by members of the New York Giants and 25 cents less than a Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute hockey stick. A bidder paid $7.25 for the auto- graphed ball, while the Wisconsin Republican’s gift—a copy of his book “McCarthyism — The Fight for America”—was knocked down for $1.25.

WASHINGTON # — Sen, McCar- ran (D-Nev) said today a move by Sen. Flanders (R-Vt) to strip Sen. McCarthy (R-Wis) of his Senate committee chairmanships “should never had been made and it has no chance of approval.” McCarran, in an interview, de- clined to be drawn into further discussion of the motion, which Flanders has said he plans to dis- cuss further in the Senate some- time today. After he offered it last Friday, Sen. Knowland of Californis, the Republican floor leader, said the ma was a mistake and not rusti- Knowland said that if Flanders calls it up, as he promised to do within the next month, debate could run for several weeks and seriously interfere with action on President Eisenhower's legislative Program. 3 Of the senators of either party who have commented, only Sen. Cooper (R-Ky) has said directly that he would vote for Flanders’ motion. Cooper said over the week- end he believes McCarthy has been guilty of an “abuse of the inves- tigatory power.” ‘ McCarthy is chairman of the Government tions Commit- tee and of its Permanent Subcom- mittee on Investigations. In moving to bump him from those posts, Flanders said Mc- Carthy had shown contempt for the entire Senate in his eats toward a 1952 inquiry into his fi- nancial affairs in 1952. The Demo- cratic - controlled subcommittee which made that inquiry raised a number of questions about Mc- Carthy’s conduct and said it could not answer them in the absence of testimony from the senator on the points at issue. McCarthy has termed Flanders’ move a “smear.” Flanders said in Atlanta yester- day he hopes that McCarthy can “again become an asset to the Republican party,” but that as of now he thinks the Wisconsin Sena- tor is following a course that “leads toward fascism.” Speak- AT SUPPERTIME- SOLID FOOD AND ing in an address at Georgia Tech and a later news conference, Flam ders declared irat | out of the field of usefulness and effectiveness” by seeking to estab- lish himself as “judge of both the evidence and the sentence.” Dmocratic leaders weren't say- ing publicly how they feel about Flanders’ effort but they were understood to feel that the issue was one for the Republican party.
