Newspaper's Suit Spotlights
sl
McCarran Hostility so Press
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Washington Correspondent
YASHINGTON.— (NEA) —Nevada Senator Pat
MicCarran’s new proposal to ban news photogra
phers, radio and television broadcasting apparatus
from committee hearings is regarded here as merely
the latest in & series of moves to impose censorship
on many phases of American life.
The McCarran act has barred from admission to
the United States, even on temporary visitors’ per
mits, & number of the world’s leading scientists.
The McCarran onmibus immigration bill, which
was recently passed by the Senate, further tight
ened these restrictions on the admission of foreign=
ers to this country.
Senator McCarran’s Internal Security Commit
tee’s investigations and the examination of wit
nesses brought before it have constantly challenged .
the right to freedom of opinion and freedom of
speech.
To the extent that thase various activities have
been directed at combatting communism and Com=-
munist propaganda, they have been generally
comnrended. Senator MceCorran’s antagonism to
freedom of speech and freedom of the press goes
deeper thap this, however, as revealed by ihs cam
paigns against publications that have been critical
of him in hic own state of Nevada.
H. M. Greenspun, publisher of the Las Vegas
(Nevada) Sun, has been in Washington and New
Yeork recently, frankly and openly trying to raise
money to carry on his fight against what he says is
a McCarran-ordered boycott of resort advertising
in his newspaper.
Greenspun has filed a million-dollar damage suit *
against Senator McCarran; the senator’s administra
tive assistant, Eva Adams; Marion Hicks, manager
of the Thunderbird Hotel, and various other resort
and gambling ciub operators.
SUIT CHARGES CONSPIRACY IN
RESTRAINT OF TRADE
The charge in this suit is conspiracy in restraint
of trade under the fair trade laws. Without this
advertising from the five resort hotels in the Las
Vegas area, Greenspun may have to fold, or else
knuckle under to McCarran pressure.
The latter is what happened in the case of a
Reno sheet, e Nevada Labor News. Its publisher,
Denver Dickerson, started out on a campaign of
criticism of the McCarran political machine opera
tions. 2
Pressure was brought to bear on the paper’s ad
vertisers, including the casinos, to withdraw their
support. Today the paper is no longer critical of
McCarran and the ads are back.
Hank Greenspun's story of opposition to McCar
van is much more bizarre than this. He was born
and brought up in New Haven, Conn,, and went to
law school in New York. He is in his middle 30's.
‘He got into the war and saw combat service in
Europe. He got trench foot and was invalided to a
British hospital. Though a blue-eyed Jewish boy
himself, he married his Irish nurse and brought her
home. They now have four children.
In New York after the war, Greenspun got
mixed up in the illegal shipment of arms to Israel
and took the rap for it
Then he got involved with Bones Remmmer, New
York racing figure, who thought he had an inside
track to get & state franchise for a new horse-racing
concession near Buffalo. When that evaporated,
Remmer and Greenspun got in Greenspun’s car and
drove to Las Vegas.
GREENSPUN TOOK PAPER OVER
FROM TYPO UNION
Remmer remembered that Tom Mix once told
him whzt @ wonderful place Las Vegas was for a
resort cer.ér. Remmer thought he might open a
track there
When they got to the edge of town, Remmer re
mearked at once, “This place is too small to support
a track.” Nevertheless he sold stock in the venture,
until some past income tax iroubles caught up with
him.
But Greenspun liked Las Vegas, its warm sun
and dry, air, He called his wife in New York and
told her to come on out.
He got 2 job first as press agent for a hotel. Then
he started a Las Vegas magazine for tourists.
A short time before, the Typographical union
had pulled & strike on the Las Vegas Review-
Journal, the established and then the only paper in
town. Unable to win the strike, the union started a
paper of its own in opposition.
The Sun was a losing proposition from the start.
After it had shown a deficit for some months run
ning, Greenspun went to Typo Union headquarters
in Indianapolis and offered to take the paper off its
hands. He had no money, but the union took his
notes.
Greenspun says he was doing all right till he de
cided to take after Senator McCarran as the too
powerful boss of the state. He "printed some pictures
and a story about young Tom Mechling, who is
running for U. 8. Senator against Alan Bible, Mc-
Carran’s law partner. That was when they began to
put the screws on, he says.
Greenspun says all the vesort operators are his
friends, anad would like to support his paper. But
the Senator won’t let 'em. They give him some “Red
Cross” ade op the side. But even with these ke
hasn’t much chance of winning.

Talt-Heavy Texas Delegation
. .
May Prove Convention Stigma
For Xecadcs Republicans have talked hopefully of
building a real two-party system in the South,
Party leaders have pleaded with Democrats to for
sake blind allegiance to their traditional party and
join GOP ranks.
This year, at long last, real stirrings developed.
At party precinct conventions in hundreds of towns
in Texas, meetings normally attended by a handful
were deluged with new enthusiasts. The Republican
Party seemed to be enjoying a new birth.
But then a surprising thing happened. The new
comers found they were not welcome after all.
Among the tight little circle of Republican regulars
there were mutterings about “mob rule” and “near
revolutionary” activities. The mildest epithet hurled
at the new people was “renegade Democrats.”
When by sheer weight of numbers the upstarts
won control of the majority of these precinct con
ventions—and the later county conventions as well
—the response of the regulars was not to accept
gracefully or even joyously this influx of fresh
blood. It was to storm out of meetings all over
Texas and name rump delegations of their own.
There were two reasons. One was simply that
they did not wish to see their long-established con
trol of the party fall into other hands, The other
was that the newcomers espoused the presidential
cause of General Eisenhower, while regulars mostly
favored Senator Taft.
Eisenhower supporters captured a substantial
majority of the county delegates to the Texas state
convention, By all normal measures, the General
therefore should have gained a big edge in dele
gates to the national convention at Chicago. But it
did not.
For the party regulars controlled the state con
vention machinery. And by the simple device of
throwing out mrore than 500 Eisenhower delegates
and seating Taft delegates in their stead, the regu
lars turned the tables and delivered the convention
to Taft.
They did not even put the garb of fair play on‘
this maneuver. They just asserted that wherever}
majorities were against them they were Democratic
majorities and hence illegal. To the outsider, it
sounded as if they were saying if you were not for
Taft you could not possibly e a Republican.
Many Republicans say that what they have done
is bad for Taft, for the Republican Party and for
the nation. They believe the Texas regulars have
made a sham out of their own alleged concern for
attracting Democrats—assuming any sizable share
of the Eisenhower delegates were Democratic,
which is unproved.
To outsiders in Republican ranks it also appears
the Texas old guard has flouted Texas law and
GOP party rules—these last of their own making.
There is no hint Taft himself was a party to all
this, though his managers were on the scene at
Mineral Wells. Indeed, sonre quarters are saying he
ought to repudiate the convention action as a scan
dalous defiance of good American tradition. The
Texas affair contaminates the hard-fought battle
between Taft and Eisenhower.
It would be a great misfortune should the 38
Texas delegate votes prove decisive at Chicago. A
nomination won or lost by such unfair tactics
would be a questioned prize.
New Berlin Library
Far less than the cost of a modern bomber, the
United States Government is providing one of the
most effective weapons in the cold war in Berlin,
The weapon is a library with 850,000 volumes, the
first American type, open-stack library to be built
in Germany.
Books are dangerous objects. Worse than bombs.
They keep exploding in people’s minds and encour
aging themr to think—frequently to think for them
selves. And the wisest thing any dictator can do is
to burn all of them he can lay hands on, knowing
how quickly wunrecorded knowledge evaporates.
Then he can rewrite history to suit himself and
dictate his own truth. All this sounds like some
thing out of the dark ages, but less than a decade
ago it was going on. The spot where the new Berlin
library is to stand isn’t very far from where Hit
ler’s followers burned books in their time, and not
too far from where the Russians are burning them
n0w—9,000,000 volumes so far, it is estimated.
This new library is to stand as a memorial to the
Allied airmen who lost their lives in the Berlin air
lift.
The books in the memorial library are not sim
ply for the use of scholars and students, as library
books have been throughout Germany hitherto.
They are for the people.—Providence Journal.
If the current trend of increased feminine par
ticipation in politics continues, we can look for
ward to a woman president.—Anthropologist Micha
Titiev.
Abiding peace can only come when there is a
mobilization of the deeper moral and spiritual
forces throughout the world.—W. Averell Harriman,
Mutual Security administrator.
Nobody contends that controls are good for their
own sake, but they are necessary since our larger
liberties are jeopardized from a military point of
view.—Nathan Fiensinger, chairman of the Wage
Stabilization Board.
The peoples of the Iron Curtain countries are
stronger than th West only in their unity. We must
find that unity.—General Dwight Eisenhower.
I have this reflectice to make. J have had a most
happy and, I guess, axfull a life as any man of this
age.~~Fresicent Harr 8. Truman.

Boyle Advises Prospective Diefers
0f Best Method To Get Weight Down
By HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK —(AP)— Do you‘
want to lose weight? |
There is only one sure way to
it. Brag it off. L
You don’t have to go on a pro
longed starvation diet. You don't
have to gulp appetite-reducing
pills or consuit a psychiatrist. You
don’t have to take sweat baths,
lift barbells, or go on 20-mile
hikes. All you have to do is brag
—brag—brag. The pounds will
roll off you magically.
I consider this a million-dollar
idea in the field of malnutrition.
It is my own idea. And I give it
free to a calorie-conscious world
as a good will gesture to corpulent
mankind.
Dieting Types
There are two kinds of people
among perhaps 25 million dieting
Americans:
1. The strong, silent type who
keep their weight-reducing pro
ject to themselves. There are a
lot of these but you never hear
about them.
2. The talkative type that in
sists on discussing diets with any
body and everything, including
birds on the bough.
The first type gets a scientific
diet from his doctor, chews his
celery in melancholy solitude,
drops a few pounds in lenely si
‘lence, and then gets sick of the
whole business* because “who
cares?” and loses interest. But
after losing a few pounds, he
starts in to brag.
“l used to be as plump as a
railroad roundhouse,” he says.
“And now already I am begin
nir,xg to look like the Eiffel Tow
() g
The more he brags the more he
wants to lose; the more he loses
the more he wants to brag.
As 1 say, I feel I discovered
this myself. I hit the scales at 204
pounds before I decided to do
anything about it. I got a diet
lfrom my doctor, read all the
books on the subject, and hung a
picture of the late Mohandas
Gandhi in my bedroom. He was
my ideal pinup boy.
! In the beginning I guess I was
the strong, silent type. I would
lose a few pounds, become sick of
the whole business, and eat the
lost pounds back in two days. I
hated to talk about my diet for
fear of boring people.

me for two hours talking about‘
his diet. In revenge I talked to
hm for a full hour about my diet. l
To my surprise, when I weighed
myself going home, I found I had 1
mysteriously lost a pound. |
The next day I bragged to an- ‘
other acquaintance for another
hour. The result: another pound
gone,
Every day since then I have
bragged ... bragged ... and brag
ged about my dieting to any one I
know or have been introducea to.
But to brag you don't have to
have anyone around you know.
Just stop a stranger, ask him for
a match. When he reaches into his
pocket-for it, grab him by the la
pels and hold on firmly until he
has heard your story.
This has worked so well that I
now tip the scales at 182—just 22
pounds down, and still losing.
