'"That Stinking Hypocrite"
murdered! screamed the headline in a
two-column, black-bordered box on Page
One of New Hampshire's Manchester Union Leader (circ. 46,517). The victim,
said thc editorial by Publisher William
Loeb, was Wisconsin Senator Joe McCarthy. His assassins, said thc publisher,
were ) the Communists, who wore down
McCarthy's "adrenal and other glands
2) Vermont's Republican Senator Ralph
Flanders, "who practically accused McCarthy- of being a homosexual on the floor
of the Senate"; 3) "piously hypocritical
newspapers." In bold-face capitals Loeb
added: ."Finally, we come to that stinking hypocrite in the White House who
recently asked every other Senator and
' Representative to his reception except
Joe McCarthy."
In thc New Hampshire senate, politicians long inured to the alarums and excursions of splenetic Publisher Loeb
agreed last week that his latest blast—
"that stinking hypocrite in the White
House"—was too offensive to ignore.
By is to 8, the senators voted to hold a
hearing this week on a Republican resolution to censure Republican Loeb.
But Publisher Loeb is made of more
carefully tempered stuff than Wisconsin's

McCarthy; few New Hampshiremen expect a censure resolution (a questionable
step in this instance) to crimp his rambunctious style. A Neanderthal Republican whose father was Teddy Roosevelt's
secretary, Oyster Bay-born Bill Loeb. 51,
insists that the G.O.P. is riddled with
Communists, in 1952 was one of the few
of any parly to endorse the late Bertie
McCormick's proposal for a simon-pure
"American Party." Spry, restless Loeb
brags thai the Union Leader will print any
letter it receives, pointed out a recent
Page One example from a student: "Mr.
Loeb, you are a goddamn reactionary."
For most New Hampshire Republicans
—and many others who have sampled
Loeb's sometimes ncuro-individualistic
politics—reactionary is too mild a label
for balding, black-eyed Bill Loeb. "What
New England needs," he argues, "is the
two-party system." In New Hampshire
and Vermont (where he owns the Burlington News and St. Albans Messenger) he
has frequently supported Democrats for
state office. When Republican Governor
Lane Dwinell announced this month that
he would never again give a statement
to Loeb's Manchester Sunday News, the
publisher chortled: "That's par for thc
course. He's thc fourth governor in a row
who's said that."
Publisher Loeb's combative instincts
have also resulted in some notable crusades by the Union Leader. In 1955, for
example, when lawmakers opposed an increase of the slate's share of pari-mutuel
receipts, the paper printed thc names of
42 legislators who were on a racetrack payroll. But Loeb himself derives his keenest
joy from an editorial page that ranges
acrimoniously from "gulliberals" to Detroit ("overgrown, over-decorated, over-
expensive U.S. cars"). "Newspapers," he
maintains, "should be run for fun, non
profit." From the Manchester Union
Leader Publisher Loeb gets both.
