McKinney Excoriates
G.0.P.r CentersAttack
On Col. McCormick
By the Associated Press
CHICAGO, Dec. 14.—Frank E.
McKinney, Democratic national
chairman, last night defended the
administration against charges of
'corruption and charged some cri
tics “are undermining confidence
in Government.”
Mr. McKinney, speaking before
more than 2.000 Midwest party
leaders at a $100-a-plate fund
raising dinner, singled out the
Chicago Tribune, the Washington
Times-Herald and their editor
and publisher. Col. Robert R. Mc
Cormick, and Senator McCarthy,
Republican, of Wisconsin for at
tack. *
“At the Chicago Tribune,” Mr.
McKinney said, "they sit up all
night figuring out new ways to
sneer at our Government’s pro
gram for world peace. And in
Moscow, Vishinsky stays up all
night, too, laughing at our Gov
ernment’s plan for world disarma
ment.
“Perhaps the reason he laughs
is that he thinks our Nation is
really as it appears in the twisted
columns of the Chicago Tribune.”
Accuse Each Other.
Mr. McKinney said “Col. Mc
Cormick, like Joe Stalin, wants
the United States to withdraw
its moral and physical support
from Europe and permit that
workshop of freedom to drop into
the lap of communism.”
Commenting on Mr. McKinney s
speech, Col. McCormick said "tne
Tribune during the last two days
has shown McKinney up as a
crook. He has tried to muddy the;
water by telling lies about the'
Tribune and me.
"I’m not going to pay any atten
tion to his lies, but I’m going to
continue to show up his corruption
and that of the administration.”
The Tribune attacked McKinney
in connection with a stock deal
in which the Democratic chairman
made $68,000 profit on a $l,000i
investment.
Mr. McKinney acknowledged
that he had purchased stock in a
Philadelphia tractor company, now
in bankruptcy, from Prank Cohen,
and sold it back to Mr. Cohen 11
months later at a high profit. Mr.
McKinney said, however, there was
nothing "shady” in the deal, and
that Cohen bought the stock back
at such a high figure because he
wanted to get control of the firm
before selling out to a South Amer
ican firm. Mr. McKinney said the
deal later fell through.
“Scuttle” Tactics Charged.
Mr. McKinney accused some
Republican leaders of "scuttle and
run" actics.
"They are disciples of doubt—
trying to sneak into office in a
cloud of negative criticism," he
charged.
“In their frenzied scramble for
power they are resorting to tac
tics which are undermining con
fidence in government.”
He asserted that a “campaign
of fear and smear” is "making
decent patriotic men and women
hesitant about entering Govern
ment service,” And charged the
present-national campaign is be
ing waged similarly to that in
Maryland in which John M. But
ler, Republican, last year unseated
Millard E. Tydings, veteran Dem
ocratic Senator.
In the Maryland campaign, he
said, a "fraudulent newspaper”
which printed a “fake photo
graph” of Senator Tydings appar
ently in friendly conversation with
Communist Earl Browder "was in
spired by Senator McCarthy and
was printed—at cost or below cost
—in the plant of the Washington
Times Herald—which is owned by
Col. Robert McCormick and pub
lished as the Washington edition,
of the Chicago Tribune.”
“Was that ethical?” Mr. Mc
Kinney asked.”
.Maryiana campaign nrougnt up.
He said some Republican leaders
see in the Maryland campaign of
last year "a blueprint for victory
in 1952.”
In Los Angeles Senator Mc
Carthy said the Gillette Senate
committee, currently investigating
Senator McCarthy's activities, hasj
indicated there is no evidence hej
had anything to do with the al-j
leged "fake photograph” of Mr.
Tydings.
Mr. McKinney charged that if
Chicago voters "Had to rely upon
the Chicago Tribune as their only
source of news—then they would
be as badly misinformed as those
unhappy millions behind the Iron
curtain—where truth is a bootleg
commodity.”
“There is more than one simi
larity between the Tribune and
the Russian mouthpiece. Pravda,”
Mr. McKinney continued.
“Both of them edit the news to
fit the party line.
“Moreover, these lines are
; sometimes parallel.
Both Blame Truman.
“When Russia breaks a prom
ise, Joe Stalin blames the United
States and Harry Truman. So
does the Chicago Tribune.
"When Russia precipitates a
world crisis, Stalin blames the
United States and Harry Truman.
So does the Chicago Tribune.
“When Russia starts a shoot
ing war, Stalin blames the United
States and Harry Truman. So
does the Chicago Tribune.”

Ceilings on Cattle Hides
And Calfskins Reduced
By lh* Atsociattd Pr«u
Price ceilings have been rolled
back on cattle hides, calfskins and
some rugs and carpeting but the
orders are not expected to affect
market prices for the items.
Generally they have been sell
ing at prices below even the new
ceiling. Yesterday’s Office of Price
Stabilization orders:
1. Rolled back cattle hide ceil
ings 5 cents a pound below levels
set in an order issued last March 15.
2. Reduced calfskin ceilings
about 18 per cent, a cut of 10 to
15 cents a pound below last
March.
3. Withdrew a 15 per cent in
crease in ceiling prices granted
manufacturers and wholesalers of
soft surface floor coverings last
March 12. This restores the gen
eral freeze ceilings of last January
26 for carpeting and rugs made of
wool, synthetics or a combination
of both. Cotton rugs are not
affected by the order. The OPS
said its action was possible be
cause of falling wool prices.

ronto, one is in Vancouver, British
Columbia: two already are in
