Lo U6T™, neorpye as ETED oe oye B ping Kantal i Super Spy High n Our Government? A very disturbing thought, even. suspicion, has found its way into the minds of many thinking Americans. . It is this: Somewhere high in our governmeht, or close “to men bigh in our government, is a super Com~ munist spy, 2 mastermind. a ‘The name of that person may nob even known generally. He may be a drinking com~ panion of a policy-forming group in our govern- ent. He may be so persuasive that the men with hom he associates do not even realize the in~ wence he wields, That thought, or suspicion, has many reasons for existing.

They are be- ing directed by some master-mind situated high in the government. And Senator McCarthy had to be destroyed because he was coming danger; ously close to revealing the identity of this im. portant person. - . “Now we have just finished reading a speec! made by Republican Senator William E.
