Abstract
- The article discusses the issue of the U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy's rude handling of a distinguished army officer. It was a question of how Senators should behave toward witnesses whether they are brigadier generals or cafeteria workers. The real issue was simply whether McCarthy should be permitted to continue his march to power unopposed or, stated another way, whether the principle of the separation of powers still prevails. The issue on related to the army gave McCarthy a chance to have his phony demagoguery taken seriously. In reality, McCarthy had no case against the army.
