They wrote the story leaning backward as if the heat from the figures was too hot for them. At any rate, here are the figures see if they are hot: The state department, our official diplomatic headquarters of policy, the citadel of the world movement to establish freedom of the individual from dictatorships, especially freedom to express himself this state department has cleaned out 202 employees from its midst in connection with its investigation of Communist tactics within. Yoi cannot call the 202 Communists, sympathizers, or even describe them. Oh no! Some resigned at the mere threat of investigation. Sensitive souls, no doubt! Some quit when asked by investigators about themselves. They were insulted, unquestionably! Others just ran at that particular time. A desire to be free no doubt seized them like a spasm. Well, anyhow, 202 seem to have had a spasm to be free of government probers and left. Of the 3,000 suspects to spasm sensitivity originally coming into the department from the Office of War Information and two other bureaus, the investigators went after 314. Only 59 were given a clean bill of spasm resistance and 53 cases still are being investigated mind you, these 53 are still in the department.

In fact, Byrnes denied frequently there were any Communists in his department when congress pressed him. Actually he started weeding them out while denying they were there. Repeatedly in this column he was told they were there long before congress pressed him, and repeatedly he denied it, finally chasing them privately. That seems to be the truth of the matter, In any event, the important thing now is that only one of these chased 202 can be called a Communist by a legal and respectable writer who desires to avoid the trouble of proving it. That single one was indicted. Of course he denied ardently hr was a Communist, as they all do. However, the government investigators found he had been an organizer for the Communis' party prior to his employment by our government, and so they decided to prove he was what they knew him to be. Certainly the other 201 must be called spasmists, no, not even that, but some possibly sensitive to a certain type of spasm investigation. That is what must be done under the sound rules of newspaper and radio libel and related established practice by a reasonably cautious person. Personally I think this kind of foolishness has gone about far It represents really only enough. our own sensitivity to accusations of unfairness and on a proposition which involves actually spies and foreign sympathizers in our own official departments. - bull-figh- t, Congressmens Salaries Released by Western Newspaper Union.

If Stalin found any of our Demo-crat- s or Republicans in his foreign office, they would be shot. The very existence of such a condition is unequivocally ridiculous and embarrassing to our diplomatic negotiations. While the Russians would not tolerate an outsider for a second, we welcomed them in during the Roosevelt administration and we now cover up, deny and avoid calling a Communist what he is after finding him in our own government and labor organizations like CIO cannot get rid of them.
