Also: The Real McCarthy Record
AUDIO CLIP 3min. | Marshall mission to China, 1951 |
Speaker | McCarthy, Joseph, 1908-1957 |
Description | Senator McCarthy describes the alleged role played by General George C. Marshall in the fall of Nationalist China to Communist forces. McCarthy discusses the secret instructions that guided the General's mission to China at the end of World War II. On June 14, 1951 McCarthy had delivered a long speech against Marshall on the floor of the Senate, and this excerpt provides a sample of how he treated Marshall in subsequent addresses. These particular remarks were made at the weekly luncheon of the Rotary Club in Huntington, West Virginia. |
