bic result OF the election. Experienced
POLITICIANS say that belief was completely
exploded In is92 when no one who made

that national committees use money 70
make wagers with a view 70 influencing
those hesltating and uncertain voters who
want TO be on the winning side. In answer
20 this the men who conduct campaigns
say they never have enough money TO
pay the legitimate expenses OF campaign
work. and therefore cannot afford to di-
vert any OF their funds into pools or
wageTa.

influence that tho sight OF actual money
put up to back an opinion on tm result
OF the election has on a certain class OF
minds. and they take advantage OF this
whore Il Is possible 20 do so without ex-
pending campaign funds necessary Tor
other purposes. Recently a man high in
tho political councils OF his party heard
that certain business man % the party
intended 10 wager several thousand dol
lars on the result OF the election He
sent for the business man and asked II g
was true.

Gig amounts or small"

cal manager.
