majority of cases. An alternativ>

for full publicity of financial trans
actions by those who disbursed funds
to further the political fortunes of
any candidate or principle. Former
representative Leslie Jacobs indorsed
the above principles, and related
many incidents in his political and
| Legislative experience. He also gave
the Brotherhood some valuable advice
on the procedure necessary to secure
