Senator Edward M. Kennedy said he would address all questions about the Chappaquiddick drowning if he becomes a 1976 presidential candidate. He spoke at a news conference and a $1600-plate Democratic fundraiser in Hobart amid demonstrators protesting his possible bid, citing the July 1969 incident and his responsibility. He did not decide on the presidency yet, but pointed to the economy and taxes as top issues and gave Ford time to fix economic problems.
