John F. Kennedy, his Democratic opponent for president, to say whether he is for or against the oil depletion allowance. "I challenge him to say three 'I support or 'I oppose it'," Nixon said. "Those words cbming from him would have the merit of clearing the air, if he dares to have it cleared.

My stand is clear and consistent. Nixon issued a statement before he spoke in Fort Worth today in which he said Kennedy and Johnson had taken different positions on the 2714 per cent depletion allowance on taxes paid by oil and gas producers, He said Johnson had promised that, if the Democrats win, the depletion allowances would not be changed, while Kennedy had said: "I believe we should study this and other allowances."
