1953 Press Photo Senator Thomas Burke at the Capitol news conference in DC

Burke, Thomas A. (Politician Ohio). Washington, D.C. Senator Thomas A. Burke (Democrat) Ohio, who succeeded the late Robert A. Taft, (Republican) Ohio, is shown as he told a news conference at the Capitol today that Attorney General Herbert Brownell, Jr., was guilty of "bad taste" in criticizing Ex-President Truman in the Harry Dexter White case. But he said he thought it was not fair for Truman to attack President Eisenhower for embracing "McCarthyism" as the Ex-Chief Executive had done in his nationwide speech this week.
