Many thanks to Dave Shelton who contributed these scans of all of Searle's illustrations for Reuben Ship's celebrated satire of the work of the US House Committee on Un-American Activities and its chairman, Joseph McCarthy.

Joseph McCarthy was a Senator not a Congressman. J. Parnell Thomas was a one-time chair of HUAC who was imprisoned for putting cronies in no-work staff jobs and pocketing some of their salaries in kickbacks. He served nine months in the Federal prison in Danbury, CT.
