QUOTE WATSON'S
PRIMARY FOE IN
Playing RECORD
Democrats Use Words Of
CIariS Adams to Answer
why Change?

Quoting from campaign Speeches
of Claris Adams, defeated in the
primary for the Republican sena.
torial nomination, Democrats today
answered the slogan of the Wat
son-Robinson organization, why
Changer"
Reference was made to Adams
statements of what he termed Sena.
tor James f. Watsun's sterile
craftsmanship, evasion, not voting
and trailing propensities' and his al
legged services as a lobbyist for the
National Association of Manufac-
turers, subject Of a congressional
investigation.
Called Party Burden
Commenting on Watson's political
record, Adams said in part:
Mr. Watson has been the Achilles
heel of the party for almost twenty
years. Mr. Watson's record as a
candidate is unvarying and unmis
taxable. He has been the lowest
principal candidate upon every State
ticket every time he ran"
Speaking at Clinton, Ind, Adams
said:
The only time that Senator Wat
son has been out of office during the
past thirty years, he was employed
as lobbyist in behalf of a sub
sidiary of the National Manufac.
turers Association. which was >the
subject of a congressional investiga-
non. The majority of tho commit.
tee was Republican and yet it's
members did not hesitate to criti.
csc senator Watson publicly for
using his prestige gained as a Con-
rressman to influence legislation for
hire. "
