FEDERAL EMPLOYEES SOLICITED
Politicians Try to Evade the Law by
Usinu the Mails,


WASHINGTON, ID. c., Sept. Is
Complaints having been received at
the office of the Civil Service Com
mission that the mails arc being used
so MS to evade the law prohibiting the
solicitation of campaign contributions
from federal officeholders Mt their
places of business, the commission
has taken the matter up for investiea
ton.
Several years ago the commission
held that 1t was violation of law 10
solicit contributions of officeholdcrs
by mail if the letter making the re.
quest was sent to the official address
of the person from whom the contri-
button was sought. Later the question
was refervM to the department contr-
justice, but that department has per.
mitted the inquiry to remain unan.
swered.
AS the congressional committees
have headquarters established here
through which money is sought to be
raised, the question is again becoming
acute.
The commission proddcd by the
complaints reaching it, probably will
renew its request to the department
of justice for a ruling, that it may
have legal determination as to whctll-
err the sending of "a letter TO federal
officeholder at his office, asking for
a campaign contribution, is a viola
ton; Of law.
