Robert Taft R-Ohio. the Republican candidate for the U. S. Senate, has accused his Democratic opponent, Howard M. Metzenbaum, of failing to speak out on the issues of the campaign.

"The people of Ohio are being asked by my opponent to vote for an unopened package," Taft said Friday. "He has talked in broad generalities. He has indicated what he is against but we have yet to hear a concrete statement of what he is for and how he plans to attack the many problems facing America today." Taft said he has campaigned on the issues and the people of Ohio know where he stands. "They have heard my views and they can judge me on my record," Taft said. "As for my opponent, all the voters have is a record of parking lot management and a cleverly designed television campaign to go on." Both candidates complained during the Cleveland City Club debate they have been the, victim of smear tactics during the campaign.

Taft said Metzenbaum tried to accuse him of being anti-Semitic. Metzenbaum said, without identifying the source, that he has been smeared throughout the campaign. "I have been the object of more name-calling, more innuendo, more smears than I hope will, ever again poliute the Ohio scene," the Democratic nominee said. Richard B. Kay, the American Independent candidate, said both Taft and Metzenbaum were "examples of the decadent two-party system."
