cupied a major part of their
speeches before approximately rs
people at Patrick Henry School in
Arlington.
Mr.. Campbell pointed to Gen,

ing event" and emphasized Sena-
tor Jenner's voting record. He
shifted the attack to Mr.. Broy-
hill. calling his opponent IAN arch
Republican isolationist" and con-
tinued by claiming Mr.. Broyhill
supported Senator Taft for the
presidency before the Republican
National Convention.
1--WE should not send a Senator
Jenner to Congress from the 10th
district" Mr.. Campbell concluded
Motley Crew Criticized.
Mr.. Broyhill charged that the
policies carried forth by "a motley
crew Of political adventures since
1882, instead Of containing COM
munisn, have encouraged it," Mr.
Broyhill scored the Democratic
administration as having a dis
|astrouS and unsound fiscal policy"
The Republican nominee con.
tinued: "Our laundering policy ir
the Far East has led us to a wal
in Korea. Do the parents who have
lost their sons in Korea approve
|of the Democratic foreign policy
and how about the boys who are
still fighting over there?"
In the question and answer pc.
Rod, Mr.. Campbell countered Mr.
Broyhill's charges that the ad.
ministration had encouraged
rather than retarded communism
"Our active part in the United
Nations, the Security and Point
w programs, and the japanese
Treaty-a treaty of understanding
rather than revenge-have re-
tarded Communism" Mr.. Camp.
bell said. ":The Marshall program
I believe, is largely responsible fol
keeping France from going COM
|munistic.
"And as for Korea" he added
despite the frustrating stale
mate there, I believe it was 8
breath of fresh air to the free
world when we told the Commu-
nists you may go this far but nc
further"
Explains Draft Case.
Also during the question period
Mr.. Campbell replied to a point
Mr.. Broyhill brought up earlier.
The Republican had said:
"While I was over there fight
ing in the Battle of the Bulge and
spending six months in a prison
camp, my opponent was over here
defending a draft dodger."
The Democrat ignored the barb
during his speech, but in the
question period he was asked
about it. He replied that he had
been asked by the court to repre-
sent a soldier whose conscientious
objector status was being ques-
toned.
Mr.. Campbell said he didn't feel
apologize about acting for a man
who had a right to a trial. He
added that the Supreme Court
split 4 to 4 on the mans right to
draft exemptions.
Denies Supporting Candidates.
Mr.. Broyhill denied that he had
supported Senator Taft before the
Republican National Convention.
after I received the Republican
nomination for Congress in the
10th district, I was asked by both
Taft and Eisenhower campaign
leaders to take no part in helping
either side" he said. II followed
this policy throughout the time
preceding the national conven-
ton"
Both candidates said they were
against world government. Mr..
Broyhill gave an unequivocable
mo-" while Mr.. Campbell said he
believed it was a "utopian plan"
which would be impossible in
our time"
