‘Senator Jenner said he will take every opportunity to talk against the present bipartisan foreign policy. He did so at the Town Meeting program broadcast from Des Moines and recently at Purdue University. On May 16 he will address New Hampshire Republicans on the subject. Citing his votes on the Senate housing and federal aid for education bills, both of which he supported, Senator Jenner said: “So long as we are pouring billions down the rathole of European recovery, I feel we can use a few millions to help our own folks here at home.” One of Senator Jenner's questioners on the TV broadcast was Anthony Leviero of the New York Times.

He walked right Into the strong arms of the law when he left the house, and was taken to jail.
