Fulbright Proposes Narrowing McCarthy Censure Probe
Senator Fulbright said he would not object to discarding some accusations against Senator McCarthy if the Senate can vote on his conduct and the probe proceeds. A six member committee plans a 10 day public hearing starting Aug 30 to determine if McCarthy’s conduct merits formal censure. The inquiry, led by Senator Watkins, will resemble a court trial with limited relevant evidence and witnesses deemed competent. Fulbright favors consolidation of some charges to avoid bogging down the process.
