CHICAGO, Oct THE republican ma
tional committee has decided that ii
would stop sending out literature on
Wednesday. October 81. 1t is believed
that the people will have had a sutfi-
cient supply by that time to satisfy
their demands Taking into consider
alton the fact that nearly $4,000, zoe
documents will have been printed and
distributed by the national and con-
gressional committees, it would seem
the voters ought to be pretty well post
ed both on the financial and tariff
issues.
Perry Heath said that the commit
tee will have prepared and circulated
from the headquarters here 16O,OOO,O9e
copies, the congressional committee at
Washington $4,000, 900 copies. In addi-
ton to all these tn, American Sound
Money league, in connection with the
committee and under its auspices
has scattered broadcast at least 10, OOO,-
900 copies The committee has also
purchased OF authors and contributors
about 10000, 600 COMES, and it is esti-
mated that the donation free of cost
