Verbal Blows Traded By Party Chairmen Mitchell And Hall In Bitter Exchange CHICAGO (INS)The Republican party was accused of practicing the “most cynical kind of politics” and the Democrats were depicted as a party “caught flatfooted by good times” today in debate between the two party chairmen. Democratic chairman Stephen Mitchell and GOF leader Leonard W.. Hall traded verbal blows in remarks prepared for delivery at the 77th annual meeting of the American bar association in Chicago. Asserting that Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy (R-Wis.) is a symbol of reckless and irresponsible senators who have invaded and assaulted the executive branch, Mitchell declared: “The official Republican attitude toward McCarthy has not been based on any question of what is right or wrong, or on what is necessary to preserve the President’s constitutional powers and the great American, legal traditions of fair play and protection of Individual rights. “It is based purely and simply on McCarthy’s popularity . . .this is the most cynical kind of politics.” Hall accused the Democrats of sounding a depression dirge in what he said was “their premature eagerness to make hard times a 1954 issue.” The GOP leader said the “fancied depression” never came off and declared: “We have witnessed the curious spectate of a party caught flatfooted by good times.” Hall said there is no harmful disunity within the Republican ranks and that President Eisenhower had set “an inspiring example to the nation in times of immense stress.”' Mitchell countered with the assertion that while the Republicans pretend to have a program, “they’re a lot more interested in running for election than they are in running the government.” He cited as an example what he termed the GOP.'s "failure to deal with McCarthy-no matter what he does to the government or to the Eisenhower program." The Democratic leader said the nation is in a recession, with production and income not where they were or where they ought to be. On the subject of foreign policy, the two party chairmen differed drastically. Hall said the Eisenhower administration' had. in facing up to the problem of world Communism, scored gains in five of six highly critical situations. While admitting that the outcome in Indo-China left much to be desired. Hall claimed the administration came out with advantages in Korea, Guatemala. Iran, Suez and the European Defense Community (EDC). The GOP spokesman said the foreign policy viewpoint of the Eisenhower administration could be summed up by saying that the

United States, although a leader, is not a worldwide "Mr. Fixit.” But Mitchell argued that the Republican program amounted to American in retreat to a new kind of isolationism which "permits only half-hearted leadership in a time of crisis." he said: “The raw isolationism of the 1920’s was no more deadly than is the sugar-coated isolationism of today-w-hether it is served with a slogan by smiling Eisenhower or bullied down our throats by a, sneering McCarthy over the prostrate body of secretary of state Dulles.” Fines Motorist For Reckless Driving Attorney Robert Smith appeared for defendant Fred Dellinger before justice of the peace Floyd Hunter this morning, and changed his client’s plea from not guilty to guilty.
