RST READER—By Harry Hansen 2 . ' e Gathering Storm : Is Preamble to U. S. \ ’ . History in Europe | "THE GATHERING STORM." By Winston Churchill. Boston, “Houghton Mifflin, $6." WITH THE publication in book form of “The Gathering Storm,” Winston S. Churchill begins a report of his leadership that is eloquent as well as authoritative, and, taken with the volumes to follow, may well deserve the term monumental. No other work has been awaited with such eagerness and none is likely to have greater influence. For here Mr. Churchill speaks in plain terms to the civilian army and to the men and women who manned the factories and pursued their domestic
tasks. As the only man who occupied

Some of his statements blister with contempt and anger; others are surgical. Here are some of the best: iA] “Into this void (after Versajlles) there strode a maniac of + precocious genius, the repository Churchill | sland expression of the most viruwriting what he|jent hatreds that have ever corcalls a history|roded the human heart—Corporal of another Hitler.”

By HENRY BUTLER DON'T start reading Bert Andrews’ “Washington Witch Hunt” if you want a good night's sleep. I tried it, needing sleep but also wanting something to read, apd wound up about to blow my top. First of all, some words about Mr. Andrews, who is chief Washington correspondent for the New York Herald Tribune, and who won the 1947 Pulitzer prize for the exposure of persecution detailed in this book.
4. .0..8 MR. ANDREWS starts with the story of a Mr. Blank (name purposely withheld) who was discharged, with several other employees from the State Department as a “potential security risk.” The fully documented account is enough to make you ill. Hitlerian or Stalinesque, as you will, the miserable business would have remained forever unknown if Mr. Andrews and other sharp journalists and some lawyers, including Thurman W. Arnold, hadn’t worked on it. Here was a man fired for no specified reason, He had previously been investigated by all sorts of agencies, including the
and highly responsible positions

he had been branded, and it took all of his savings and all he could borrow to keep him and his family going until he could land a| job—a matter of many months. “Washington Witch Hunt” raises the whole question of loyalty. Can you legislate people into being more loyal thang they were? Can you evoke sincere patriotism by scaring people with investigations that may cost them not only their government jobs, but even a chance to get other jobs? . Do you make Hollywood writers better citizens by citing them for contempt? Mr. Andrews raises that question in his section devoted to Hollywood on trial. ” » »
“LOYALTY” and “security” are bogeyman words, as they were after World War I. As far as security is concerned, we know there’s no such thing. For the notion thats if we all keep mum the enemy will never learn our deadly weapon secrets and we can remain forever on top of the heap has a comic-book childishness. So has the nation that if we spy, it's o.k. but if they spy, they're a bunch of lousy so-and-sos who ought to be atombombed at once, with no declara-|
to ask questions or find out what
® “ THERE IS MORE than a hint that Mr. Blank’s religion may have had something to do with the treatment he got from minor brass hats in the State Department. If it's a question of antiSemitism, which other critics have charged against the Htate Department on occasion, the subject needs thorough airing. Certainly Mr. Andrews’ description of one of Mr. Blank’s chief persecutors (scion of an old New York family whose reported statements reflect arrogance and consciousness of privilege) sug-
ee of any sort.
As editorial writers in the New 'Yopker's * of the Town” repeatedly have declared, security is not a national matter. It's an international matter. With disease germs far easier to produce and far more deadly as weapons than atom bombs, according to report, we can’t hope to maintain indefinitely our proud and prosperous isolation. » EJ »
WITCH HUNTS are not new in this country. They need to be resisted at every step, Mr. Andrews points out. It’s all too easy to lose what freedom we have. That's the lesson of “Washing-
