Since populous Southern California has the nation's second largest concentration of Jews, Democrats were delighted. Knowland's front-running opponent, Attorney General Edmund ("Pat") Brown, demanded that Knowland disown responsibility for use of the tract, drew only the surprisingly lame comment: "I don't think I'm called upon to agree or disagree with every piece of material that comes to my attention."
