BELMONT IS PRESIDENT

Washington, Jan. 29.-Publicity of
election contributions and expendi-
lures and the formation of organiza-
tons to promote these purposes in all
states are urged in an address issued
by the national publicity bill organi-
cation. Perry Belmont of New York
Is president and Frank w. Foster,
delegate of the American Federation
of Labor to the British Trade Union
congress, is secretary. The address
follows:
For the purpose of eliminating by
all appropriate methods the evils re-
sulting from secret contributions and
expenditures of large sums of, money
In elections meeting was held in
the city of Washington on the 18th
of January, 1906, an association was

"The secret and corrupt use of
money in the election of the chief
magistrate of nation, it's Legislators,
and Its state and municipal officers,-
Is dangerous menace to the institu-
lions of free people. The profligate
use OF money for such purposes en-
ables the consolidated interests, by
secret contributions, to dominate poll
tical organizations, depriving the
many of their political rights, to con-
fer them on the few.
1T is confidently asserted that the
first and most important measure of
relief Is the passage of national law,
requiring the disclosure, under oath,
of every contribution of money and
every promise of money in national
campaigns, and in case of evasion,
providing for exposure, detection and
punishment substantially as set forth
in a bill prepared under the auspices
of this organization This
organization desires to promote the
formation of similar organizations in
every state of the union in order that
the proposed national law may be
supplemented by state legislation of
like character and as nearly uniform
