Welch Scores Cruel Charoe r By McCarthy Assails McCarthy For Attack Made On Young Lawyer WASHINGTON (INS) — Joseph N. Welch, a mild-mannered lowaborn Bostonian did a turnabout Wednesday which lifted the armyMcCarthy hearings to an emotional peak unheard tit in senate proceedings. The 03-year-old special army counsel inspired spectators in the crowded caucus room to a roar of applause in defiance of the ban against “any audible manifestations of approval or disapproval." Some housewives who saw it on television wept—and told the offices of several senators so in telephone calls soon after the ac-tion-packed session was over? They were not alone. A member of the senate investigations subcommittee, which is conducting

the hearings, said he saw Welch outside the hearing room "hawling like it baby” after the episode was over. It was a complete change in character for Welch, who had been 'apologetic to Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy at several past points in the seven weeks of hearings. He had sat silent as the senator called him a "clever little lawyer” and even at one point referred to him as dishonest. A reporter asked Welch if this clash with McCarthy would lead him to withdraw from the case. Carefully, and scarcely able to conti*bl his voice, he replied: "How can you withdraw and how can you continue? I don't know if it is as tough as I think.” What it involved was a reply by Welch to McCarthy’s disclosure that Fred Fisher, who works for Welch’s Boston firm, once belonged to the National Lawyers Guild, which has been cited as a subversive organization by the house committee on un-American activities. ~ ~ McCarthy’s office was trank to admit that even though the favorable calls outnumbered the critical ones, there were four or five women who telephoned to protest about it after the session. For Welch, boiling mad and on the verge of tears but speaking

in measured tones, told McCarthy: “Until this moment, senator, .1 think I never really guaged your cruelly or your recklessness.” • Welch said Fisher, u Harvard graduate who "Is starting what looks to lie a brilliant career,” told him on his own that he had belonged to the Guild and because of this the plans to have Fisher aid him in the army inquiry were cancelled. Welch added: "Little did I dream you could be so reckless and so cruel as to do an injury to that lad. It is true he is still with Hale and Dorr (Welch's firm). "It is true that he will continue to be with Hale and Dorr. It is, I regret to say, equally true that I fear he shall always bear a scar needlessly inflicted by you. “If it were in my power to forgive you for your reckless cruelty, 1 would do so. I like to think I am a gentleman, but your forgiveness will have to come from someone other than me." McCarthy declared that while Welch "talks about this being cruel and reckless” he was “baiting Mr. Cohn here for hours” in the cross-examination. McCarthy said ”1 know this hurts you. Mr. Welch” and proceeded, finally asking him if he had not brought Fisher to Washington to act as his assistant.
