And time after time the Presi- ’ }dent . sidestepped head-on clashes with McCarthy only by refusing to indulge in personalities or mamecalling. Even so, he shot some unmistakable shafts in the senator’s direction. Some investigating committees had internal troubles. Democrats stamped out from McCarthy’s Senate Investigations subcommittee when the GOP ma- jority voted the chairman exclus- ive rights to hire and fire staff members. It took months, and a change in that decision, to get! them back. * Under pressure for a staff shake- up, McCarthy reluctantly accepted the resignation of Roy M. Cohn as chief counsel and transferred Don- oe A, Surine to his own office Thursday, August 26, 1954 THE On a subcommittee which has mmered away at security risks, it developed that Surine and an- other staff aide, Thomas Lavenia, had been denied security clear- ance by the Pentagon. Lavenia was kept on the payroll with an understanding he would have no access to secret information. Staff troubles, the Army - hear- ings and the censure move are just a fragment of the McCarthy saga in the 83rd Congress which has just wound up its second session. From time to time, the senator banged away at these targets: ‘ Books he said Were pro-Com- munist in U.S. libraries overseas; alleged espionage at the Army radar laboratory at Ft. Mon- mouth, N.J.; Allied trade with Chinese Reds; the government's supersecret Central Intelligence Agency; State Department files and personnel; the Government Printing Oiffice; the United Na- tions; the Mutual Security Admin- istration, the handling of some tax cases, defense stockpiling, suspect- ed Reds in defense plant, fraudu- lent social security claim, possi- ble waste and corruption in Alaska.

These patrols go up and down the streets of the big cities helping the, police try to keep the rest of the nation’s’ youth from going astray on alcoholism, brawling and Tarzan-style long hairdos. Another task is to prevent children from slipping into delinquency, which here includes going to church and Warning to pray to God. The new patrol is announced in Komsomol Pravda, organ of the Soviet Communist Youth League in an article titled “Don’t Be Indif- ferent.” The morality patrol was inaugu- rated as an experiment in the port city of Leningrad. Komsomol Pravda tells of a young man with a Tarzan haircut who-was sent to the barber. It says the patrols have worked so well in Leningrad that they are being extended to other cities. while rushing through outer space. misuse of union welfare funds; So- viet seizure and abuse of the Bal- kan states; travel and expense lowances. of: federal judges;~ the Voice of paren el a compound crus soup a tr 8. preite of ammunition for Amer- ican forces in Korea; charges of election irregularities; the social security system; operations of the Justice.

On the way: back Eisenhower will stop at Des Moines for a brief. in- formal talk at the Iowa State Fair, and Hoover will-eceompahy him to the fair grounds. é James C. Hagerty, White House Press secretary, said Eisenhower and Hoover will drive to Fraser feither that evening or Tuesday morning. They probably, will re- main.there until Sept. 3 or 4. Hagerty also announced the par- ty may be joined there by Dr, Milton Eisenhower, the President's brother and president of Pennsyl- vania State College. Headquarters will be the ranch —nearly 10,000 feet high in thé/} Rockies—of two old friends of the President, Aksel Niélsen and Carl Norgren. * Eisenhower vacationed there in 1952 and again last summer. This year, as on the last two occasions, he probably will do most of the cooking. Like Eisenhower, Hoover—who was 80 years old on Aug. 10—has been a fishing enthusiast for many years.
