speaking in Kentucky, Urey Wood

made the following statement:

There is absolutely 40 truth in it
as to this campaign or any other
campaign. 1t is q revival of the
same old lie that was told during

never received a cent for any polit-
ical speech that he has ever made
in Kentucky. Not only has he re-
ceived no pay, but he has been a
contributor to the campaign fund"
