| The Senator demanded again'
j that President Truman fire Sec-
jtary of State Acheson, who he ac-,
| cused of having helped to “master- :
‘Mind disaster for America and|
victory for Communism in the
East."
Speaking to 4.500 persons at an;
Izaak Walton League picnic, Sen-
ator McCarthy said Congress had
passed One biil providing $75 mil-
lion, “any part of which could
de used in Korea,” while anoti.cr
till provided more then S10 mil-|
lidn “all of it to be used to arm’
Squth Korea.”
‘President Truman signed those Jj
‘vo bills without word of pratest.",
:tHe Senator said, “and then what
happened? The State Depart-
ment crowd stepped in and how
‘Much of that money do you think
luctually was spent ta arm South
Korea? Only $200, and that to:
loud some baling wire.” '
Senator MeCarthy also assailed
Mr. Acheson for the administra-
[tion policy in Western Germany,
‘declaring that Russia is creating
a powerful army in the castern
vpart of that country while “we
‘keep ours half weak.” \
! The Senator declared that the!
‘Democrats conducted a “dishon-,
jest” inquiry into his Communists- |
in-Government charges. He re-
newed attacks on persons he has
accused publicly of being pro-
Communist.
