Army Tells McCarthy
2 Officers Reprimanded
For Peress Case Delay
WASHINGTON, UP)—The Army
has told Sen. McCarthy (R-Wis) it
officially reprimanded two offi
cers for delay in handling the case
of Dr. Irving R. Peress, who was
promote-d to major and given an
honorable discharge.
But, said Secretary Stevens in
a letter to McCarthy replying to' a
new series of questions by the
senator about the case of the man
he calls a “Fifth Amendment
Communist,” the Army has taken
no action against three other high
officers. The reasons given by
Stevens:
(A) They were only carrying
out provisions of a congressional
law and regulations, and (B) in
the Army’s opinion “no acts per
formed by them manifested the
slightest indication of Communist
sympathy nor any other derelic
tion of duty.”
Stevens said the three were
Maj. Gen. William E. Bergin, the
adjutant general; Brig. Gen.
Ralph Zwicker, commanding offi
cer at Camp Kilmer, N.J., when
Peress was stationed there, and
Maj. John J. McManus, assigned
to the personnel center at Camp
Kilmer.

Narrow Margin of GOP Defeat
Shows Majority of Voters Not
Disturbed by State of Nation
By James Marlow
WASHINGTON, UP)—At this
time, when politicians begin put
ting their own interpretations on
Tuesday’s elections, one conclu
sion is obvious and a second one
seems so.
1. It was a Republican defeat.
The voters showed their dissatis
faction with Republican control of
Congress by turning the House
over to the Democrats and per
haps the Senate. The final Senate
result can not be known until
after some recounting.
2. The extraordinarily narrow
ness of the margin was a pretty
good sign the great majority of
voters are not deeply disturbed by
the state of the nation.
If the people—as a whole—had
been fear-ridden or in distress
they would no doubt have ex
pressed their misgivings or anger
by giving the Democrats an over
whelming victory to change the
direction. This they did not do.
On the other hand, if they had
been extremely enthusiastic about
■ the Republican performance of
the past two years, it seems rea
sonable to believe they would

have increased the GOP control
of Congress. They did the reverse.
The amazing even division of
voters’ thinking was best reflect
ed in the Senate races where, in
Oregon, Ohio' and New Jersey
only a few thousand votes sep
arated the candidates although
roughly five million votes were
cast in the three states.
And the Democrats achieved no
smashing majority in capturing
control of the House over Presi
dent Eisenhower's last-minute
pleas to keep the Republicans in
charge.
Of the 435 House seats, the
Democrats won 232 to the Repub
licans' 203. They did it by gaining
17 seats.
The Republicans may try to
console themselves by recalling
that for half a century—with one
exception, 1934, the party in con
trol of Congress has lost some
seats in the mid-term elections.
And they may argue that their
loss of 17 seats this year was far
less than the recent average of 40
seats picked up by the party out
of power in the mid-term ballot
ing.
But the fact remains the voters
have shown they can, when they
wish, reverse the mid-term tradi
tion and increase the grip on Con
gress by the party in power. They
did that in 1934 to show their en
thusiasm for the Now Deal begun
by President Roosevelt two years
before.
It was the last time in Roo'se
velt’s lifetime that happened. In
the mid-term elections of 1938
and 1942 his Democrats lost
ground but not control of House
or Senate.
By the same token the voters
this year, if they had felt over
whelming enthusiasm for the Re
publicans, could have added to
their seats in both houses. They
chose not to.
It’s possible that Eisenhower's
last minute efforts for the Repub
licans saved them from a worse
setback.
One of the main Democratic ar
guments—that the farmers were
burned up at the Eisenhower Ad
ministration’s flexible price sup
port program—was not borne out
by the results.
On the contrary: in the normal
ly Republican farm state of Iowa
Sen. Gillette, a personally popular
Democrat seeking his third term,
was defeated. There were no big
congressional reversals for Re
publicans elsewhere in the farm
belt.
