AFL Charges Taft Gave
Erroneous Testimony
Washington, D. C. (1LNS).
Senator Robert A. Taft of Ohio “was completely in er
• ror° when he testified November 26 that the American
Federation of Labor spent $750,000 in an indirect attempt
v to defeat him for re-election by sponsoring the Frank
Edwards news program over the Mutual Broadcasting
System, AFL President William Green declared. _
Senator Taft’* testimony also
was "untrue” when he stated that
the Frank Edwards broadcasts
were “devoted principally to at
tacks on me and against my re
election,” President Green said on
behalf of the AFL,
In regard to the first charge,
>Green said:
"The facts are that the Frank
Edwafids program was sponsored
by the AFL not only in I960, but
this year as well — long after
Senator Taft’s re-election — and
will continue to be sponsored by
us next year. *
“This radio program is part of
the long-range nation-wide public
relations program of the AFL
and has no relation to any spe
cific political contest.”
Replying to Taft’s assertion
that he was the chief target of
the Edwards broadcasts, the ATL
president said:
“Mr. Edwards made a cross
country tour during the I960
campaign during which he re*
ported upon outstanding contests
in at least a dozen states.
Labor Spending No Secret
“If the Senator from Ohio had
said that Mr. Edwards has re
peatedly attacked the hidebound,
reactionary views of people like
Senator Taft on domestic issues
and their isolationist views on
foreign policy, he would have
een much closer to the truth
“Every dollar spent in the Ohio
campaign by Labor's League for
i Political Education, the political
arm of the AFL, has been folly
accounted for and duly reported
to the constitutional authorities."
