John Brophy, 45, who won handily over Edmund V. Bobrowicz, branded a Communist in Democrat's clothing by the Milwaukee Journal. A bald, chunky onetime Socialist and Progressive, Brophy became a Republican when the Progressives merged with the G.O.P. last spring...

...purpose was to combat the C.I.O.'s Political Action Committee, to ring doorbells and get out the vote, just the way P.A.C. did. It would have a blacklist, just like P.A.C. Targets of A.A. were such P.A.C.-backed Congressmen as Vito Marcantonio, Hugh De-Lacey, Edmund V. Bobrowicz (TiME, Sept. 30).

Bobrowicz, a blond war veteran of 27, and an official of the C.I.O.'s Redlined Fur and Leather Workers' Union, denied the Communism charge. He had had the support of open and avowed Communists and the P.A.C...

Both national and Wisconsin Democratic leaders were in a swivet. Should they read Bobrowicz out of the party-and thus confess their error? Should they keep him and try to brazen it out? Or should they piously denounce Communism and let it go at that? Most forthright reaction came from Representative Andrew Biemiller, Democrat from the adjoining 5th District.
