ment herewith filed embraces all money
spent by me or in nay behalf with my
knowledge by my adherents and friends;
thatrI have neither directly or indirectly
arranged, encouraged or connived at
spending of any money, other than as
shown in nay said statement; that I have
not repaid Any snoney SO spent or claim
ed TO have been SO spent and that l will
not do SO. and that I have not violated
