Iashington, D. C.Hy dear Senator: //422:;
Your letter of lby 26, 1952, with
enclosure, has been received.
I thought you night want to suggest to
your oorresnondent that data in the files of the
FBI is confidential. Accordingly, it rill not be
nossible to be of aeaistanoe in connection with
his request. No conclusion, o course, should be
drawn that we do or do not have the desired data
in view of our inability to be of assistance in
this matter.
I an returning your enclosure to you.
Iith expressions of my highest esteem
and best regards,
Sincerely yours,

except to state that I thought it was lost undesirable to
publicize threats of this kind because to do so will merely
put in the mind of some moron to personally attack Senator
McCarthy. He asked whether I thought he should have an arlled
guard and I told him that was a latter they Iould have to decide
but, frankly, it is almost impossible to protect anyone by
guards if someone really wants to instigate such an attack.
He indicated the publicity in this matter was not his idea and he
clearly indicated that it we acre or less of a publicity stunt
to bring this information out in the fora of testinony before

There was a reference to major news items, returning prisoners, etc.,
and'W@n.J. Eo?ar Hoover says about Senator McCarthy." The commercial fol-
lowed, major news was expanded upon, and the question "What does J. Edgar
Hoover sv about Senator McCarthy?" The answer, in substance, was as follows:
The ho. 1 Gman today told a reporter of a San Diego paper that *cCarthy was
an ex-Marine, an amateur boxer, and Irish, and that he couldn't be pushed
around. The Director was not passing judzment on any committees, but said
that invtstigative committees do a good job. He has asked how lonr he had
known McCarthy and said only since he has been a Senator. He has come to
know him officially and personally. He considers the Senator a friend and
believes the Senator so considers him. He said Hccarthy was earnest and 1
honest and had many enemies, because when you attack subversives you are
goinc to be the victim of extreme criticisms. The Director said he knew,
and added that WMEH that type of criticism ceased coming his way, he'd consider that he was slipping. 58

fascism and to force the nation along this path . . . Within
the framework of the present situation, it seeks to propel the
Eisenhower government ever more to the right and transform
it into a fascist regime. It strives to create a mass base with-

Pacific waa atill to come.
Out of auch atuff. McCarthy and his colleagues have tried
to create the legend oi the Senator as a War Hero."
The ease oi ilia missing records

His judicial career waa climaxed in a auit of the Wiscon-

for alleged violation of the state milk marketing law.
Judge McCarthy ruled for the dairy company and dis-
missed the suit. When the state: attorneys appealed to the

The author of this pamphlet, Morton,
pamphlet written by Morton, which is evidently being printed
in quantity since it is adversed at 3 cents per copy in orders "from 500
up," consists of a strenuous attack upon Senator McCarthy personally as
well as upon his methods and motivations.

The pamphlet concludes by citing the growing opposition to
McCarthy on the part of American labor unions, church leaders,
educators, and minority groups. "A united, militant crusade of
democratic Americans can stop McCarthyism in its traclcs, " the
pamphlet declares. "The stakes are big -- democracy or fascism. "
However, it is strongly suggested that the success oi the anti-McCarthy
forces depends upon the ability of these forces to recognize the "gimmick"
oi anti-Communism employed by McCarthy and to "cut through the fog oi
M.cCa_rthyite anti-Communism. "
In effect, the pamphlet, which is in accord with the present
Communist Party, USA, propaganda line, endeavors to discredit all
anti-Communist eorts by discrediting Senator McCarthy.
A copy oi this memo is designated for the Internal Security
Section for information.

Dear Hr. Hoover,
Speaking for my family, many relatives 6
friends, we want to congratulate you aoet heartily
for your support of Senator Ibarthy in the wonder-
ful job he is doing to rid our country of subvereives.
re have been anaeed d often dejected by
many reports from iashington concerning the good
Senator & have realized that the "political hide" of many
individuala was far more important than the welfare
of their country.
Thank God you had the great courage to cone
out in his defence! It was good to hear a high public
official - held in high esteem by his fellow countrymen-
uoice the eane sentiments which have been felt right

Dear Hr. Hoover:
Although I have long felt that Senator Joseph
McCarthy has been doing this nation and its people a
great public service in the face of seemingly unjust
criticism, I have been one of the zany "sheep" who
have failed to say so in 0 loud voice because of
tinidness in the face of public opinion.
Therefore, it was gratifying to read your
endorsement of him in today's New York Herald Tribune.
I thank you, Sir.
Respectfully yours, 53 7CJ

This book would appear to be a hatchet job on
Benator Hoarthy. From the first paragraph bhsre a dark
figure suddenly appears" the authors strive to depict the
Iisoonsin Senator as a sinister figure--a nan obsessed by
personal ambition; a nan "too preoccupied with hunting
headlines to spend nuch time on the Senate floor-;" a nan
"worst Senator of all 96, Ihose power has frightened and
silenced many of his colleagues-

Qcarthy - The Ian, The Senator, The 'Ism" is bitterly
anti-HcCarthy. The job done on the Senator would appear to parallel
the type of thing which Lowenthal did to the FBI. It is a compendium
of truth, falsehood and innuendo linked so subtly that it is almost
impossible to separate one from the other,
§§FERENCE$.!1Q§ T0 lF92_EO0VFR §NQ_ZE§ IE1:
The authors state that "real, live Communists in government
more hard to find." The Iightieth Congress had already dragged the
river bottom of the Democratic administration. The FBI had also
maintained a constant vigilance against Communists infiltrating into
the government; and every federal department and bureau had sifted its
employees through a loyalty screen. O . 0 . "But of all the governmentdepartments probably the most security-conscious had been the State
Department.
fbge_1§§:
Iith reference to 108 State Department cases on which there
was prejudicial information, the authors say: "The hostile GOP commit-
tee bloodhounded all 108 oases, searching for tracks of Communism that
might embarrass the Democratic administration. But only 5? of the
original 108 persons were still employed in the Department; and most
of those had been pronounced loyal after FBI investigations."
lbQ1.l2l:
' In attempting to show how unreliable lb0arthy is, the authorssay: For ea-ample, Joe said of another case: He was recommended for
the position by an individual who is listed by the FBI ae a principal
in a Soviet espionage case, ' though the 1948 report had identified the
persog who made the recommendation as a suspect in an eapionggg

jgge §l§e3l4 contingedzwut there was nothing in the rules to prevent G-nan
Hoover from examining his own files and reporting back to Congress.
On the witness stand, he repeated the warning that opening his dos-
siers would result in complete collapse of FBI procedures and
would dry up its sources; besides, he said, the files contained B~
checked rumors and idle gossip. But he testified that he had gone
over the Lattinore file himself and could state that it contained
no evidence to back up McCarthy's charges. And he made available
to members of the Tydings sub-committee a summary of all the infor-
mation the FBI possessed on Lattimore.
"Badly shaken, Joe recovered in time to issue a statement
saying that Hoover's testimony meant only that he, IcCarthy, knew
things even the FBI didn't know. But with all his heavy artillery,
he couldn't drown out the effect qf Hoover's bomb burst; so Joe
made a strategic retreat. . ."
Yet in all his years of informing the FBI, Budens was
forced to admit, he had never happened to mention the name qf Owen
Lattinore."

g Re the alleged planned departure of Lattimore from the
United States. "The only trouble was that the tip was a sheer
fabrication. Jarvinen admitted this to FBI agents; and by the end
of the week, he was indicted by a Seattle grand jury for knowing-

, The authors use a statement of the Director's in an effort
to prove that the people who say McCarthy does more good than harm
are wrong.
Vut the real experts, the men who have made a lifetime of
exposing Communists, have a different opinion of Joe's crusade,
against Red will-oLthe-wisps. FBI Chief J. Edgar Hoover, the nation
top authority on ferreting out Reds, wrote in the June 9, l94?,
issue of Newsweek:
HIe can successfully defeat the Communist attempt to
capture the United States by fighting it with truth and justice,
implemented with a few Don'ts:
"Don't label anyone as a Communist unless you have the fact
Don't confuse liberals and progressives with Communists.
Don't take the law into your own hands.

"Dcn't let up on the fight against Fascists, the.IlI,
and other dangerous groups."
44:123$ iL_ The authors contend that the more Hcarthy has attacked
the Communists "in his noisy but harmless way, the lore they hdv8
secretly smiled and rubbed their hands.
"This was confirmed in January, 1952, by Herbert Philbrick,
who had spent nine years in the Communist Party as a volunteer
counter-spy for the FBI. He came out qf hiding, after rising higher
in the Communist hierarchy than any other revealed FBI agent, to
appear as the government's ace witness against the eleven top
Communists."
gage 5:2! "Philbrich also warned that McCarthy's habit of baring his
breast and denouncing Communists from the housetops jeopardized the
secret_under~couer work of FBI informants. J. Edgar Hoover himself
said as much on larch 27, 1950, when he refused to open the loyalty
files for McCarthy's benefit--when he warned that if the 'raw' files
were made public, it night wreck the entire loyalty program, cut off
sources of information, smear innocent persons, and cast adrift dan-
gerous 'half~truths' about Communism. But at Janesville, Iisconsin,
_on Hay 7, 1950, Joe demanded that he be turned looee'in the secretfiles not only of the FBI, but also of the Central Intelligence Agen

£1229:C
Even the House Uh-imerican Activities Committee displayed a
strong hostility toward Joe. Committee investigators claimed that
lbCarthy'e work was bombastic, irresponsible, inaccurate, and detri-nental to the cause of anti-Communism. This attitude of the respon-
eible 0ommuniet~hunters was perhaps best summed up by J; Edgar Hooverwho declared: "lb shall contribute to our internal security by ro- JPtecting the innocent as well as by identifying the enemies within our
midst. Fitch-hunting weakens internal security,"

In this communication yr. Burine was advised that the

altering the or iginal action in this ease.

the Department of Justice for such action as it deems appropriate,
As Surine thus tripped over his own testimony and landed in a
puddle of trouble, his boss, Joe McCarthy, stood by in the hearing

by picturing hin as a norose, crybaby-run-hone-to-mother
type, bullied by his father and brothers, babied by his
nother, and who shunned the company of his schoolmates.
Ho latter how laudable any action qf Senator
McCarthy, the authors see something devious in it and turn
it against him. Thus, the fact that as a boy of fourteen,
Senator IcCarthy rented an acre qf land from his father anddeveloped a highly successful chicken farm by the time he
was sixteen merely indicates over ambition.
The fact that, at the age of twenty, Senator Icarthy
enrolled in high school and completed a fouryear course in
one year merely indicates the parallel between him and Huey
Long.
The fact that Senator lcdarthy was elected president
qf his class at Marquette University was simply because he
developed a reputation as a card and because of his ability
to make others {feel important.
lhe tone of the book is set by one paragraph
describing his attendance at Marquette University: Yfron the
first, Joe had inclined toward the company of law students--
boisterous, congenial, garrulous individuals with a flair for
the bizarre and a taste for politics. The boarding house
where they lived was run by John Kuhn, a stocky German with
a thick accent, who more boots and admired Prussian rays.
fhe authors, by the uoet subtle type of innuendo,
portray Senator McCarthy as a sinister, Nazi-type individual.
His rise to political power in Iisconsin, according to the
writers, was accomplished over the bodies qf scores of friends
and acquaintances who were simply used and than shoved aside
when their usefulness to him was at an end. The book is full
qf instances of McCarthy's alleged duplicity and tales qf
purported double crosses.
lhe authenticity of many of the stories nay be judged
by the fact that the alleged teller lay be introduced as Tl
grizzled old farmer, who prefers to be known as Bill Cummings
in these pages ...' or a similar device nay be utilized to
give the color of authority to the story.

- Iith regard to allegations that Senator HcCarthy
spent too much money and misrepresented his elderly opponent's
age, thereby violating the State's corrupt practices lam in
his campaign for a circuit judgeship, the authors feel the
natter is still open to question, despite the fact that after
a year of investigation the Governor reported there were no
material allegations.
The authors criticise the fact that Senator McCarthy
cleared up o backlog of £50 cases and never got behind in his
court calendar even if it meant keeping court in session until
past midnight. The alleged motivation was determination to
establish new records.'
The Senator is accused by innuendo qf ruining the
promising law career qf one Gilbert Lappley, a lawyer for
the Agriculture Department. The latter had filed suit against
Quaker Dairy which had been making life difficult for Appleton-
area farmers, who found their profits squeezed by the company's
pricing practices, after it found Quaker Dairy 'uas violating
laws put on the books to protect the farmers from price under-
cutting. Lappley, angered by a IcCarthy decision, rent to
the state Supreme Court to seek an order forcing McCarthy to
try the case. lhe authors allege that political pressure was
put on the 'supersensitive' Lappley to keep his mouth shut,
presumably about his side of the story, and his superiors,unhappy over being placed on the political hot seat, fired
him.
Senator HcCarthy entered the Marine Corps, according
to the authors, because a political rival, the lbyor ofIilwauhee, was cutting a handsome figure as a Naval Ensign,
and Joe had to nahe a enarter nose--ergo, the yarine CorpseMcCarthy, say the authors, was sworn in as a first lieutenant
and they accuse him of duping the.Iilwaukee Journa into running
a story reporting ycCarthy's offer to enlist "as a private,
' an officer or anything else ..- for the duration.
McCarthy's service record in the Murine Corps is
dissected--dispargingly,under the title Tail-Gunner Joe-'92 Fr0I1 that date April, 1943! until he parted company with the

a year after the Americans had captured its air strip, and si:
months after all organised resistance had ended."
WHcCarthy knew that when an airman returned hone, he
would be judged largely by the nunbsr of lissions he had flown--
not by the number of briefing sessions he had held. So Joe cast
about for an opportunity to fly.
The Senator's Purple Heart, say the authors, was
awarded for a foot injury incurred in the course of an initiation
crossing the equator. Iith regard to a citation signed by Nimitz,
the authors say: "How the fabulous McCarthy promoted this
citation is a mystery that has never been fully solved."
The Senator is charged with granting quickiedivorces in return for political favors. His "trap for La
Follette" in the Senate campaign is outlined. He is charged
with "smearing La Follette" and "winning the Communist vote."
His election and La Follette defeat in the primary is attributed
to the Communists "reckoned, correctly, that the sufacs abuse
of Communism would be much less deadly in the long run than
the sincere, well-documented approach of La Follette." So they
"rallied the workers behind McCarthy. "The Communists and
Democrats were out for La Follette's hide; and the exhaust
explosion of their negativisn blew Joe McCarthy right into the
United States Senate.
The battle for the Senate between "the scholarly
Icurray and the earthy McCarthy" is set forth. Joe succeeded,
say the authors, in convincing a sass of voters that Iclurray
was indeed a "pinto." According to the authors, his chief
backers were largely America Firsters, Lammot Dupont, Upton Close,
and Colonel McCormick. McCarthy for the second tine was taken
to task for running for qfice without resigning his judgeship,
,an alleged violation of state law.
Senator McCarthy's first days in Iashington are
picked over. He "was building up a close friendship with the
ill-fated John Haragon." at is labeled the "Pepsi-cola Kid"
for alleged efforts to get sugar controls removed for the
benefit of the Pepsi-Cola Company. A chapter titled "Housing
Expert is devoted to Senator HcCarthy's antipathy to public
housing. One is entitled Ginsberg and Gypsum; another, Lustron:
Bankruptcy and Profits; still another: rm: Hblnedy Massacre.
McCarthy is also charged with scuttling Francis
Matthews, Secretary of the Navy.

Space is devoted to "The lcarthy lethods," "the

The book concludes with a chapter entitled "Ihe Age qf Jocusa

opinion on Senator McCarthy by that appears to be a grossly
|biased selection of pros and cons.

The enclosed editorial appeared in the August 27, 1953 issue
of the New Bediord Standard-Times. It seems to me to be an attempt to
indicate that you agree with the Standard-Times in its practically un-
qualified support of McCarthy.
Readers of the news and editorial pages of this newspaper rnight
well conclude that critics of the senator are for the most part either
Communist sympathizers or, at best, sadly confused individuals. However,
there are many in this area who feel that McCarthy's honesty is open to
question and that he himself has been guilty of subversion---subversion of
Arnerican standards of justice.
7 I would appreciate a statement from you regarding this
editorial, Since the Standard-Times is using your name and reputation
for integrity to support their point of view, it is of real interest to me to
learn-whether the editorial accurately reports your opinion.
Sincereiy yours,
Fairhaven,

Hoover concedes that. but speaking {rum

Dear Sir: ' , ' I L!. /I ' 5 - .' ;
In reading John O'Donne11s column Aug. Z4 in
the N.Y. Daily News. I saw where you refer to Senator
McCarthy as Irish. I had a1way's thought him to be an
American. However, after reading the article I can readily
see why he has so many en_i_rnies.
It is a sad commentary on American life, when,
with 160 million people in U. S., we must have a foreigner as
chairman of the committee investigating un-Americanism.
Disgustingly yours = V; ' a
