Pearsons connections are widespread. He doesnt have to hunt for sensations. Ministers, generd als admirals, government officials and gangsters supply htm with sensational rumors, gossip, and, in particular, slanderous fabrications about the Soviet union. With Pearsons help, dark Intrigues are frequently consummated. . . . On one occasion Pearson concocted a radio discussion on the question of Democracy. As exas the perts, he invited such then Attomew General Tom Clark; Clare Booth Luce (wife of the owner of the reactionary maga-ginLife and Time) and the nortorious warmonger James Byrnes (former secretary of state). O AN IRISHMAN is willing to go a long way to celebrate St. Patricks day. One traveling salesman found himself jolting over a lonely Wisconsin highway on March 17, in a county full of people named Pfeiffer and Schmidt. He stepped on the gas and was soon rewarded by the wail of a pui suing suen. What's the big idea? asked the state trooper, thiusting an Irish face through the car window. It's St Patricks Day", explained the salesman. If I cant get a fellow countryman to celebrate with me, I can at least find one wholl arrest me! 9, -- ... high-place- es Gangster of the Press "As American newspapers have frequently disclosed, Pearson has powerful friends in the U. Senate, Including Senators OMahoney, Bridges and In the house of repreother sentatives, he enjoys the favor of the speaker, Sam P.ayburn, and the Republican leader, Joe Martin. Pearson also has ties with the FBI (the American Gestapo) . . . Pearson frequently comes out with provocative announcements. In the general howl of the warmongers his voice also is heard, the husky voice of the mongrel true to his master. Pearson is an unwavering adherent of the maniacal plans for the establishment of world domination by Ameu-ca- n monopoly. He has cynically declared that the U. S. has enough atom bombs to tnrow a few on every one of the countries that are members of the U. N. Some time ago the International Organization of Journalists, at the proposal of the Polish de.e-gatadopted a resolution condemning malicious Instigators and propagandists for war. It called upon the National Association of Journalists to expel from their ranks persons blackening themselves with war propaganda, race and national hatreds, misinformation and slander. In the disgraceful list of these journalists appears the name of Pearson, a gangster of the press, the chained dog of the monopolists from Wall Street.

Herald Journal Editorial 5 , He Can Hardly FUCHS SPY CASE SHEDS LIGHT Wait ON THE COMMUNIST MENTALITY By HENRY MjLEMORE Over the years much has been written about the strange nature of the Communist mentality, particularly as it shows itself in the Soviet Union. But little thats been said matches Dr. Fuchs formal spy confession in providing real insight into this mentality. Dr. Fuchs said that when he came to Britain from Germany he fell in naturally with extreme leftist people. They were his friends; he understood them and their thinking. And presumably all of them were governed by a deep attachment to Russia, the Communist Father-land- . . Gradually, however, Dr. Fuchs rose in prominence as a scientist. Soon he found himself working with other eminent British specialists on highly secret atomic projects at Harwell, England. Despite the fact that he was now working for the government, Dr. Fuchs still felt a primary loyalty to the political creed he shared with his first British friends. And hence he convinced himself it was proper to pass on to Russia, the Red Fatherland, the secrets he learned at Harwell. But what concerns us more here is Dr. Fuchs reaction to the people he met at Harwell. The scientists and other workers, their friends and relatives were not like his other friends. They were solid Britishers, more or less content with their lot, earnestly doing their jobs. They didnt talk of overthrowing the government. As time went on Dr. Fuchs grew to admire these people. He concluded, almost reluctantly and with evident astonishment, that they were decent folk. He found they had a calm assurance about life, and some kind of mysterious wellspring that fed their driving energies. But Dr. Fuchs said he did not understand the sources of that assurance and that drive. More amazing still, he didnt thmk the Britishers at Harwell knew the sources themselves. What a startling confession of the bankruptcy of the Communist imagination. Dr. Fuchs could hardly accept the fact that anyone not a Communist could be a decent individual. And his mind rejected entirely the to idea that the motives which lead a pursue a decent life could be understood either by him or them. This is a perfect example of what happens to a mind thoroughly poisoned by the fanciful propaganda, the pat thinking, the deceitful ideology of totalitarian communism. It makes for a mental isolation so complete that it is almost impossible for the afflicted individual ever to build a bridge to human beings whose minds are free. Find Out How He Does It After Arthur Krock, dean of the New York Times Washington staff, gained an exclusive interview with President Truman, reporters were hopping mad. They felt they were victims of unfair discrimination. Now Krock has scored again with an exclusive from John L. Lewis, who, aside from his formal statements, seldom has anything for reporters but grunts of no comment. Presumably the Washington newspaper fraternity resents this beat almost as much as the earlier one. But before anyone decides Krock ought to be charged with unfair labor practices, perhaps his reporting brethren should try another course. H?w about finding out how he does it? His paper has tremendous prestige, to be sure, but is that nec's-sarilthe whole story? Maybe Krock just tries harder. v BARBS I HAVE JUST finished writing what I trust is a most ingratiating letter to a gentleman I have never seen, but whom I hope soon to be calling Papa. The letter was prompted by this advertisement in the Personals column of the Saturday Review of Literature: Who would like a Lne old French title? An elderly count in France will legally adopt an American and transmit the title in return for financial aid. Unbeknownst to my wqfe and creditois, for years I have had a secret savings account to which I have faithfully added a dime 'a week. The mason jar is about full now and I can think of no better way to spend my hoard than to bring the first title into the McLemore family. Up until the time I read the Count's offer I had planned to use the money as a down payment on a producing oil well which would provide for Jean and me in our old age. But Jean is just as crazy about the thought of being a countess as I am about being a count, and even forked over the money for air mail, special delivery stamps. She has already started sewing trains on all her dresses and stoutly refuses to let me eat dinner in my shirt sleeves any more. AS FOR MYSELF, I havent been idle. I have already painted Count In white paint on the side of my car and am just waiting to find out what the old man's name is to put that on, too. For, of course, once he adopts me I'll have to take his name, and we're hoping it will be a fancy one, something like Count de Eiffel Tower, or Count de Folies Bergeie, or Count Pol Roget 1929. If it turns out that he is named Count Joe Smith or Count Spike Brown, I am going to ask for a substantial discount. I'LL BE IN EUROPE shortly e and plan to make for the counts castle hed better have one, too! and make myself known to him. It should be quite a touching scene. I intend to kiss him on both cheeks and say, Bon jour, mon cher pere. After that I'll be stumped and will have to turn to my handy Franch-Englis- h dictionary while he stands back and gazes fondly on his son. Already I can hear him exclaim in exquisite French. Land sake, what a lucky old count I am to get this handsome bioth of a boy to carry on my illustrious name." Then we'll toast our new asset iation in his champagne and then call m some celebiatpd Ftench shyster to draw up the papers. After that I'll empty mason jar in his lap and m.v hike propose a busk, with full field pack and rifle.
