ir~regularity IN the whole proceed

oversight. the envelope III which re-

sci of the Republican national COM

After maintaining silence for sew
eral days, Burke put forth care
fully worded statement today in
which he denied that he had ever
urged Mrs. Willebrandt ito attack
any mans religion" Furthermore.
he said, the copy of the Springfield
speech which came to Republican
national headquarters did not con-
tain any phrase appealing to the
sectarian prejudices of Mrs. Willie
brandt's ministerial audience.
Ordinarily" the statement said,
II pay no attention to campaign
canards. but in the interest of truth
and all concerned / am compelled tn
deny that during the last presi-
Dental campaign l ever urged or
suggested that Mrs. Willebrandt dis
cuss any mans religion or religious
subject, nor did 1 insert or attempt
to insert any religious comment in
any speech she made or intended
to make, nor was any manuscript
of hers containing any attack on
any mans religion or personal char
acter, or raising the religious issue,
ever submitted to or scrutinized by
me, nor did any manuscript of her
Springfield Ohio speech which came
to headquarters contain any such
expression as go back to your pull
pits and preach this doctrine or
anything akin to It,"
Mrs. Willebrandt stated that she
