McCarthy Will Press Private Probe of Communists
The Senate foreign relations subcommittee voted 3 to 2 to prepare a preliminary report on its inquiry into McCarthy charges that the State Department harbors Communists and fellow travelers. McCarthy said he will continue his own private probe and dismissed the idea of a cease fire as a whitewash. Debate over the report's nature followed the vote with Hickenlooper insisting the record supports an interim report, while Tydings framed it as a preliminary document.
