Special Justice. It will not occur if John McClellan can prevent it. To the job of preventing it he brings much more than his scowl and his voice; they are merely the sight and the sound of the controlled strength that makes McClellan one of the most respected members of the U.S. Senate and its top investigator. Into the arena of congressional investigation, where many a congressional head has been turned by headlines and TV time, McClellan brings a special kind of justice.

Wherever Wyszynski goes, he makes it a practice to remain until the crowds that inevitably lie in wait for him have dispersed-so as to prevent demonstrations. When he says Mass, he usually emerges from the parish house about an hour after the service. Women kiss his ring, children cling to his robes, people grab at his hands.
