Faw Explains Why He Entered Democrat Congressional Run
William W. Faw described to about 75 listeners at City Wall why he sought the Democratic nomination for Congress. He cited past party deals, urged district opposition, and credited Rex McNeese and Mrs. Hendrickson for pushing the bid. Faw projected victory in the upcoming special election, citing support from Republican holdouts and his ties to Sen Estes Kefauver. He defended his stand on minimum wage and medical aid and recalled early political influence from a state senator. The remarks followed introductions by Toni Cassett and endorsements from local party leaders amid opposition from Guy Smith and Carl Jones.
