Sen. Lehman Hits At McCarthyism Senator Endangers Allied Cooperation WASHINGTON —Sen. Herbert ■H. Lehman D-N.Y. accused President Eisenhower today of letting “McCarthyism” endanger Allied cooperation in the world fight against Communism. in a keynote speech at the sixth annual convention of Americans for Democratic Action, the New York senator expressed concern over the recent verbal exchange between Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy R-Wis. and British Labor party leader Clement Attlee. “The time has come when the administration must make its choice between appeasing the irresponsibles at home and breaking up .the unity of free men abroad,” Lehman said. "If the administration continues to try to achieve unity in the Republican party, even at ihe price of sacrificing the unity of the free world, the administration will have a terrible accounting to make with history. “The issue is not between Britain and the United States, but between McCarthyism and (America’s role of leadership in the free world. The two are inconsistent. To attempt to reconcile them is to invite disaster.” ; s ADA members shb*wed more disposition to attack the Wisconsin senator than to open a frontal assault on the President. National chairman Francis Biddie. in his report on the past year’s activity said it was “a particular pleasure to report that we have ■ taken an occasional crack at Sen. , Joseph McCrthy—and shall continue to do so.” The • chief criticism levelled • against Mr. Eisenhower was that he has failed to exercise leader--1 ship. I Lehman contended the internal > threat of Communism is nothing compared to “the external threat of Soviet imperialism” and said it wilt take “the unity of all free peoples everywhere to meet that danger , and overcome it.” Sharp Explosion In Texas City, Texas ‘ TEXAS CITY, Tex.
