“™ Kamp's methods, strategy, and
top targets are identical with
McCarthy's. We promises big reve-
Jations, then slowly waters down
his charges until nothing is left
but a nasty impression and guilt
by association.
Like McCarthy, Kamp’s prime
tareets are President Truman and
Secretary of Siate Acheson. One
man, Kamp wrote, “completed the
ruin of China and assured the
triumph of Russian Communism
. Dean Acheson—once a lawyer
for the Sovict government.”
Like McCarthy, Kamp pleads for
opening of the loyalty files.
Like McCarthy, Kamp attempts
{o pin a red Jabel on all who have
ever been crilical of Chiang Kal-
shek.
And like MeCarthy, Kamp
singles out Lattimore, Ambassador
Philip Jessup and John Stuart
Service. Service returned from
India last week to answer Mc-
Carthy’s accusations.
Chiang: Kai-shek, Kamp says,
has always been “unswervingly
loyal to American interests.”

The big exception to this pat-

charges—is Lattimore. In an early
page, Kamp says that while al

Like McCarthy, Kamp bland
