...column last week, Joseph Alsop, who considers himself a leader in the fight against McCarthy, wrote: "One of the real achievements of the Eisenhower Administration, apparently, is curing the national neurosis that was produced for so long by McCarthy's demagoguery, the Truman Administration's maladroitness and the foolish wartime misjudgments of the Communist Party's character." Coming from Joe Alsop, this is quite an admission. Are the Republican orators calling attention to their party's achievement in belling the McCarthy cat? They are not-and many of the intense anti-McCarthy votes are going Democratic...
...Third District (New Haven). The Third is a switch district: in Republican 1946 it went Republican by 23,000; in Democratic '48 it slipped to the Democratic side by 1,139, then stayed there by 7,000 in 1950; in Republican 1952, it switched back to the Republican column by 11,610. Early reports from New Haven brought the first deep frowns at Adlai Stevenson's headquarters on the evening of Nov. 4, 1952. In 1954, Republican trend-watchers will be pleased if G.O.P.

A statistical-minded friend of Dr. Peale's once calculated that the U.S. suffers from 7.5 billion headaches a year, and the pastor's great message is that religion can cure almost all of them. He sees...
...through intensity of anti-Communism, to, most recently, McCarthyism. In general, the Catholic nationalities respond one way toward these issue, the Jews and Negroes the other. For the past sixteen years, it has been a fact in New York politics that when Jews and Negroes go into the Democratic column, Catholics get out. And vice-versa...
...CRIMSON welcomes expression of reader opinion in its Mall column. Last year, over 100 letters were printed, ranging from impassioned defenses of Senator McCarthy to jibes at the prospects of a maidless College.--The CRIMSON was at once called Fascist and Communist for its stand on one particular issue. Letters should be under 400 words, and the editors reserve the right to abridge them if space limitation makes this necessary. No changes in context will be made, however. All letters must be singed, but names can be withheld by request...
