Tbe collapse of Jiang's Cbina an e bloodily indecisive Rorean War gave point to bis charges, wbile accelenating ti unt for scapegoats. A few "pinks" and communist sympathizers were exposed an riven out of government. But persons with liberal or nonconformist ideas were ti iscriminately branded as communists, with a subsequent loss of reputation an bs. In'McCartby's view, binds that waddled like ducks, quacked the ducks, an sociated with ducles were presumed to be ducls. Anti-MoCarthyltes cited the axio at it was better to let ten guilly men escape than to condemn one innocent ma cCartby bere defends bis tactics. How convincing is be? One of the safest and most popular sports engaged in today by every politici id office seeker is to "agree with McCarthy's aim of getting rid of Communists wernment," but it the same time to "condemn his irresponsible charges and sho in technique." It is a completely safe position to take. The Communist Party an eir camp followers in press and radio do not strike back as long as you mere ademn Communism in general terms. It is only when one adopts an effecth ethod of digging out and exposing the under-cover dangerous, "sacred con immunists that all of the venom and smear of the Party is loosed upon him. I suggest to you, therefore, that when a politician mounts the speaker's rostru id makes the statement that he "agrees with McCarthy's aims but not his methods it you ask him what methods he himself has used against Communists. I sugge u ask him to name a single Communist or camp follower that he has forced or the government by his methods.... Is not a person presumed innocent until proven guilty? Yes.
