The committee vote on whether with the executive action we'll hear the evidence then we meet in executive session decide what you want to do with him gentleman may i ask whether any of these charges are under oath or in affidavits form they are not knowing, firstly, that the charges are untrue. I it seemed to me that here is a man who was chief justice, now chief justice of the United States. I wouldn't submit a town marshal to this type of an anonymous charge without us having an opportunity to evaluate the person making making the charge. Mr. German, do you think this endorsement of Senator McCarthy will either help or hinder the Sons of the American Revolution? I think it will cause harm. Senator McCarthy is associated in our minds with a distortion, unwarranted accusations, unsubstantiated statements, and with the great harm that he has done our country abroad. I believe that he has done more harm to our country abroad than all of a Soviet propaganda apparatus could possibly have done. Gentlemen here's what I said to him. I as I look it over, I think my language was too temporate by repeating it today it'll be much stronger. This this is the abuse, this is the official reporter's record of the hearing after he said that he wouldn't remove that general from the army who cleared a communist major. I said to him, I said then, General, you should be removed from any command. Any man who has been given the honor of being promoted to general and who says I will protect another general who protects communists is not fit to wear that uniform. General. Well fellows, you've got your television set I see after your 30 hour wait. Yes, sir. What did it cost you? Nine ninety nine nine ninety nine. Was it worth the wait? Yes, sir. Really worth it, huh? Yes, sir. We had a lot of fun waiting too. Now, I don't recall anything about the case, and I'd have to look into the facts before I could The senator said yesterday that he believes no one can turn down a call from a committee or a subpoena except the president. This seems to bring up a direct issue with you, sir. Can you expand your attitude toward that? No, I am not going to add anything to the situation in advance of the hearing or to General Zwicker not to appear for the hearing originally scheduled for this morning was proper. You have any further communication with Mr. Sherman Adams, sir? No sir. I just don't know how to answer that question. The report of the Committee on the use of gamma globulin last summer has unfortunately been inaccurately reported to the American people. That committee did not say in any sense that the use of gamma globulin in the proper amount and at the proper time in mass inoculations was not effective. But it did say was that it had found that there was not sufficient use in that way on which to base an opinion one way or the other. The original experiment made by Dr. Hamman with March of Dimes funds in 1951 and 52, demonstrated that gamma globulin properly used in mass inoculation was 80 percent effective. That is the scientific record up to date, the National Foundation, therefore, will continue to make gamma globulin available this summer in mass inoculation. That is it's obligation to the American people.
