McCarthy Denounced for Charging -
Sen. Monroney with Anti-Semitism
WASHINGTON, (JTA) — Sen.
Herbert H. Lehman took the
floor of the Senate to speak as
a member of the Jewish faith
to denounce charges of "anti-
Semitism" lodged by Sen. Joseph
R. McCarthy against Sen. A. S.
Monroney, an Oklahoma Demo-
crat. McCarthy lashed out on
a "Meet the Press" telecast
against Monroney, charging that
the Senator's opposition to the
methods of McCarthy's inves-
tigators Roy M. Cohn and David
Schine represented "the most
flagrant, the most shameful ex-
ample of anti-Semitism I have
ever heard."
Defending Sen. Monroney, Mr.
Lehman told the Senate he was
moved "to assert that this is a
wholly false and ridiculous
charge." He said: "Many indi-
viduals of the Jewish faith, as
well as of Christian denomina-
tions — without distinction . —
have repeatedly criticized and
repudiated the antics of these
two brash young men. For sev-
eral months in speeches and
public statements, I—a Jew, sen-
sitive to any religious bias —
have been strongly critical of
the behaviour of these young
men and have pointed out that
they have been doing our coun-
try and the cause of anti-Com-
munism great harm both here
and abroad. I am very certain
that most members' of my reli-
gious faith, not as Jews, but
as Americans, are anything but
proud of these two young men."
Sen. Lehman pointed out
that "to brand criticism of
them (Cohn and Schine) as
`anti-Semitism' is pure and
errant demagoguery, raising
an ugly symbol in defense of
indefensible c on d u c t." He
added that it was unnecessary
for him to absolve Sen. Mon-
roney of "this cheap charge,"
yet, he said, he could not for-
bear from affirmatively at-
testing that Monroney 'is one
of the fine chardcters of the
Senate, free of bias, hate, and

prejudice — a gentleman of
understanding and of cour-
age."
Sen. Monroney said, "S e n.
McCarthy's statement is just as
ridiculous as the absurd activi-
ties of his two investigators who
left a trail of discredit to Ameri-
can traditions across Europe" a
reference to their recent, much-
criticized investigating tour of
Europe.
Wiley Charges Opponents of
DP Bill with Anti-Semitism
Senators received copies of a
memorandum from Sen. Alex-
ander Wiley, chairman of the
Senate Foreign Relations Com-
mittee, which charged that anti-
Semitism has been injected into
efforts to kill the Administra-
tion's emergency bill to admit
240,000 additional Europeans in
the next two years.
"The anti-Semitism," Sen.
Wiley stated, "is particularly
vile in connection with this
bill, because so tiny a percent-
age of individuals of the Jew-
ish faith is involved in any
way at all among the poten-
tial immigrants."

Sen. Wiley said he and 17 fel-
low Senators who joined with
him in sponsoring the Adminis-
tration bill and President Eis-
enhower himself have been tar-
gets of "slanderous abuse" from
"a poisoned well of anti-Catho-
licism and anti-Semitism."
The Wiley memorandum said
that "by final favorable action
on this bill, we of the Congress
will be giving the only sort Qf
answer which that tiny, poison-
ous outside monority deserves—
a thundering rebuke—a thun-
dering denunciation of their
vicious efforts.
"Those efforts are unworthy
of the respected, substantial in-
dividuals and groups inside and
outside the Congress who, for
lair, valid reasons, in their own
judgment, oppose the bill," Sen.
Wiley pointed out. "I know
that these worthy members of
the opposition would disasso-
ciate themselves . completely
from the slanderous attacks by
the bigots, hate-filled, discrim=
ination-screaming outside min-,

New Eisenhower Appeal
President Eisenhower made a

leaders whO visited the White
House for determined action to
secure passage of the adminis-
tration's bill to admit 240,000
additional Europeans in the next
two years.
Among those who participated
in the White House meeting
today were chairman William
Langer of the Senate Judiciary
Committee and chairman Louis
E. Graham of the House Judi-
ciary Subcommittee. Acting
Senate Majority Leader William
F. Knowland made it known the
immigration bill, as approved by
the Judici.ary Committee of the
Senate, "would be acceptable" to
the administration. In the
House informed sources said
there is a "fifty-fifty chance" of
securing action on the measure
this week.
