cry. Democrat, tabloid publica-
ton of the County Democrats,
sis an obvious distortion of the
truth" and said that he would
not permit the distribution of
such literature in his behalf
"even if the COP could afford it,.
4. Pledged his efforts, if re-
elected, to assisting the next
Congress to develop foreign trade
policies that will protect domeS-
tic industry from pirating for
eign competition, and at the same
time fostering beneficial world
trade to combat the Communist
economic offensive"
