Ad Hominem

The Chicago Tribune's Robert Rutherford ("Col. M'Cosmic") McCormick opened a new fighting front last week. The Colonel's Chicago Tribune turned on the New York Herald Tribune, which had printed a roundup of the pre-Pearl Harbor opinions--since proved laughable--of "appeasolationists." Said the Tribune:

>The Herald Tribune is selling out America because its proprietor, Ogden Reid, is the brother of Lady Ward, the former Jean Templeton Reid.

>The Herald Tribune doesn't care what happens to Australia, "because there isn't a society person to be found in the whole continent."

>"The Herald-Tribune is a hyphenated newspaper in more than the typographical sense. Its patriotism is diluted with sea water." (The Herald Tribune never has hyphenated its name.)
