PROMISES HIS BESTEFFORTs
Next Democratic Platform Will Con-
tain a Plank on the Subject, "Pro-
viding He Has Anything to Do With
Its PREPARATION"

Washington, Nov. GA meeting of
the Association For the Publicity of
Campaign Contributions, called by
Hon. Perry Belmont, was held here,
the chief feature of which was a short
address by w. J. Bryan. He was in
troduccd by Mr.. Belmont as a man
whose influence would be very great
in securing the passage of a law pro
viding for publicity Of congressional
campaign contributions at the coming
session of congress-. Mr.. Bryan spoke
for twenty minutes. He asserted that
if the movement for publicity of cam
paign contributions did not take form
through the Democratic. members of
congress during the next session it
would take form in the next Demo-
cratic national convention, providing
he had anything to do with it.
although the Democratic party is
not in a position to draw it's share of
campaign funds at present. he said,
ut has been in a position to do so
before and will undoubtedly be in
that position again when it makes
the necessary promises. / hope that
no party will yield to the temptation
to sell legislation or immunity for
contributions. There is no doubt that
such has been done in the past"
MI. Bryan contended that the pub
licity should be made before a cam
paign instead of after, but it could
with benefit be done both before and
