Conner) Sewell Keeps Lions Laughing , 7 hinking By CARL CONNER Record Staff Writer Herbert Sewell, GOP candidate for Governor in 1952, spun a line of good humor and lively philosophy for the Lions Club ladies’ night dinner last night, and ended the “laugh-making dissertation’’ with as fiery a sermon as any hell-fire brimstone evangelist ever gave. He was a surprise package. No one knew lust what to expect At first he sounded like a windy po. utlcian—then Just a home-foUoy humorist But, he fooled everyone when he drew his Jokes to an end and spent the last five minutes of his talk urging those attending to know Jesus as their personal savior. The phllosopher-pollticlan-at - tomey praised the ladies attend ing the dinner, and told the hus. bands that behind every good man is a better woman. ‘“‘Let’s give them a big hand," he told the men. “I never expect to get a Nobel prise,” Sewell mused, and then added, “but they gave Gen. Mar shall the peace prise for bring ing on war in Korea—so you can’t tell what theyll do.” “Most speakers begin by giving yon a long list of what they expect to cover,” Sewell told the Lions and Lionesses, “but I'm going to tell you what rm not going to talk on.” ' His list was Interesting.

WANTS ACTION In his first major radio-television address in nearly two months, Mr. Eisenhower urged Congres3 to act quickly on the “badly needed" measures to put America on, a “broad” straight legislative high way” to “security, prosperity and happiness.” He said Americans are living in “an age of ceaseless trouble and danger" when the future is "shad owed by mushroom clouds and menaced by godless men addicted to force and violence and the con tinuance of anarchy among na tions.” “Let us therefore not rest until these laws are passed,” he said. “Let us have less political fission and more political fusion Let us have An this session of Congress approval of.jt program essential to America.” Aodienee Cheers The President spoke before the Citizens For Eisenhower Congres sional Committee and the admit, tedly partisan audience lnterrunt ed 32 times to cheer him wildly.

NO. 136 McCarthy Claims Army Set Up Phony Charges WASHINGTON (IP) Ray H. Jenkins strongly suggest ed today that a memoran dum written by Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy directly con tradicted McCarthy’s testi mony on why the Army pro posed to “creak” Maj. Gen. Kirke B. Lawton as com* mandant of Ft. Monmouth, N. J. McCarthy denied the implication during concluding cross - examina tion by Jenkins, special counsel for the Senate permanent investigat ion subcommittee. He said the Army set up “phony claims" in an effort to get rid of Lawton. The real reason, he insist ed, was Lawton’s co-operation with the McCarthy Investigators in their hunt for subversives at Ft. Mon mouth. Jenkins reminded the senator that yesterday he testified Army counsel for John G. Adams told him ia.it winter Lawton was to be removed because of critical remarks about certain universities. .: The memo, dated Dec. 17,. said the only reason Adams gave was that “Lawton embarassed the mil itary” by helping the subcommittee expose bad security at Ft. Mom mouth, McCarthy said the memo con tained his evaluation of Adams' reason and therefore was not con tradictory. ■ - --Jenkins hammered at shortly before breaking off his cross - examination in the morning session of the 32nd day of tbs Army McCarthy hearings.
