Charged Lippmann hotly: This "confused raid on the bond plan" was caused by "crude partisanship . . . personal disgruntlement...
...figure out the logic behind the position is, however, difficult. In a column on the subject, Walter Lippmann gave up: he concluded that, in their stand on the Urban Affairs Department, the Republican had simply made a mistake.
