REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN BOOK
 COMING OUT EARLY THIS YEAR

Washington, June 22.-The republican congressional campaign book will be out unusually early this year, probably six weeks sooner than it was issued four years ago. The proofs are practically cor rected up to date on such matters as can be handled before the democratic conven- ton meets. It is always customary to reserve a portion of the book for com ment on the action of the democratic con- vention, and to include the democratic platform for the information of campaign speakers. The book will follow quite closely along the lines of the last cam paign book, except that some new con vention ideas will be added and others that have ceased of interest will be dropped out. Considerable space will be devoted to the space of injunction There will be biographical sketches of the va- rious candidates and the work of the re- publican congress will be given very fully, particularly of the last three sessions. At the latest the book will be issued August l. This will give campaign speak CTS an opportunity to be prepared for an Is desired The committee is planning it's work with the idea that this year more than ever before the campaign will be waged by means of literary productions through the press and Ly pamphlets and speeches and by the active work of spell binders For that reason the early is- suance of the campaign book has been re- garded as especially desirable.
