vice versa. For example, in its
issue of March 7, the paper re-
ferring to President Truman's
civil rights program proclaimed
that -the document was "written
by Marxist Morris Ernst in the
offices of Marxist Henry Morgen-
thau"; in an earlier issue it had
attacked the Atomic Energy Corn-
mission because "the real power
is Louis Lichenstein Strauss of
Kuhn Loeb and Company which
financed 'Communist Russia." In
its issue of Sept. 29, "Common
Sense" accused Felix Frankfurter
of placing "Hundreds of Marxists
in key positions in the New
Deal." •
McGinley is a former resident
of Texas and a self-styled enemy
of "Marxism." He describes him-
self as a long time student and .
foe of Communism and Commu-
nist front organizations. In order
