He said he would answer only questions submitted in writing or posed in speeches by other senators. - ; Watkins announced he will take the floor Monday to speak on the censure issue when Sen ate debate resumes Monday. At the end of his opening speech Wednesday, Watkins was ques tioned at length by McCarthy and the two exchanged angry charges.

Refuses To Give Apologies To Hendrickson Milwaukee, Wis. U.R) Sen. Joseph R.

I like him," Mc Carthy said. "If I could say any thing that may make him feel better, I would but I have no plan for an apology."
