McCarthy Again
Brownell Rules out
FBI. Data Release
WASHINGTON, May .6 (.)—Atty.' Gen. Brownell ruled against
Sen. McCarthy (R.-Wis.) today on releasing some secret FBI data
dealing with a search for espionage. The senator angrily demon
started that Brownell •be called
before the Senate Investigations
subcommittee to justify his stand.
With this question still open, the
McCarthy -Pentagon inquiry
delved into the record of a certain
"Mr. X." This man never was
named, but McCarthy charged he
is one of several persons with
"Communist connections" who
have served on the Pentagon's top
security screening board.
John G. Adams, Army counsel,
replied that the man had been
cleared of security risk allegations
after an investigation.
Brownell got into the inquiry
when the Senate investigators
asked him if it would be all right
to make public a "letter" pro
duced earlier by McCarthy--a let
ter that turned out to be a cut
down version of an FBI memo on
the question of espionage at Ft.
Monmouth, - N.J.
The attorney_general sent back
his answer today. It was no. He
said the letter makes "unauthor
ized use" of secret FBI data

$966 million in federal aid for

Recently a young mid-westerner enrolled at a
university as a Logic major. His father had told him,
with'some understatement, that he was illogical. He refused
to squire a pretty girl to a dance because her name was
June Betz and he was against gambling.
He wouldn't eat avocados because they were also called
"alligator pears" and he didn't like alligators.
In addition, he was a slob.
Some of the men in his dorm tried to talk to him.
"Look at that shirt," they said. "The material's cheesy.
Why don't you hop down and get a Van Heusen
Oxfordian ...it's soft, fine oxford cloth."
"I'm not attending Oxford. I'm attending Old Siwash,'
answered our boy.
"But, look, Buster. This oxford cloth is woven tighter
so it'll last longer. It's a smart investment
And it only costs $4.50."
"So who needs it? I might get hit by a truck. Then what
good would' it be?" quoth Buster.
"What about your collar? Flat as a pancake! Don't you
want a good-looking button-down with that famous
Van Heusen relaxed-roll?" one asked.
"I got nothing against pancakes. I hate rolls."
Note: Our man flunked Logic post haste, and was drafted.
The Army has him classified under "Secret Weapons."
