...objective look at the facts does not lead us to the view that "the foreign policy issue is Herter's strongest talking point," as Mr. Hooper holds. Herter voted for the discriminatory provisions of the D.P. bill, for arming Greek and Turkish fascists, against extending power to negotiate reciprocal trade agreements for three years, and for his own bill attempting to put the European economy completely in the hands of private U.S. monopolies...
Last week we submitted a letter to you challenging University and CRIMSON liberals to come out in support of Congressional candidate Walter O'Brien, Democrat and Progressive.

The battle for the Senate may well have a higher Hooper rating next Tuesday than the Presidential race, and it will probably be much pleasanter listening for the Democrats...
