Taft accused his opponents in last year’s Ohio senatorial race today of participating in a “sinister conspiracy” with a “peculiar Communist undertone.” Defending his own campaign in testimony before the senate elections committee,, Taft said President Truman’s recent statements that “special interests” poured money into Ohio op Taft’s behalf “are untrue.” . ... ■< He-said his opponents,-in their efforts to elect state T./ "apparently would stop at nothing.” . f; “They were guilty of excessive use of money, pouring funds into Ohio from every state tn the union,” he said. “They used false front organizations: they sent carpet baggers and outside organizers into . Ohio A they based their campaign on lies and misrepresentations about my personal life on a so-called ‘speakers handbook’ produced by the (Clp) PAC.” His opposition: Taft said, “Were guilty of the most extreme appeals to class hatred” and "injected the religious issue in the campaign.” \ Taft, one of two announced! candidates for the Republican presidential nomination next year, submitted a 20,000-word statement and photographed documents to back up hls charges as the ‘committee’ opened hearings into last year’s senatorial election campaign in Ohio. Taft won handily, rolling up a majority of more than 431,000 votes.
