In Chicago on February 9 a thousand people paid five dollars each to hear speeches by four members of the dwindling minority of men in public life who dare to oppose the Liberal Establishment.
The very names of the speakers sufficed to remind the audience how precarious is the position of conservatives in this country. Two, former Senator Welker of Idaho and former Governor J. Bracken Lee of Utah, were removed from public office in 1956 when the Janissaries of the New Order moved into their states with the usual equipment of smear-pots and money bags. The Establishment will surely mobilize all its forces of propaganda and corruption to defeat Senator McCarthy in 1958.
