PUBLICITY BILL
BEFORE SENATE
Only Change in House Meas.
ure is Ante Election Publ
cation of Contributors

Washington, May .14.-Senator Bur-
rows today reported to the senate, the
Neuse bill providing for the publicity
Q >ptributions made for the purpose
\ III. ,ucing elections. The bill was
an %. 'rpm the form in which 1t
was >ecy 80 the house by striking
out the N, requiring publica-
tion in ad< ,, elections. Con-
cerning the sion for advance
publication, the report Of the commit
tee says:
"It would be the signal for q gem
eral assault upon every person max
ing such contribution with which
to prejudicing the electors against the
candidate by claiming that he sup
ported by persons who have some
personal end to subserve or private
interests to promote and is not, there
fore. worth Of public confidence and
support.
THE public knowledge that all con-
tributions and expenditures are to be
made public in detail after the elec-
tion are under oath, and that false
statement in relation thereto punish
able by fine or imprisonment or both,
certainly will to tend to prevent any
wilful violation Of the law"
Reference is made in the report to
the letter Of President Roosevelt to
VIM. j. Bryan in 1908. in which the
president called attention to Mr..
Bryan's attitude toward contributions
Of tho elata 2. H. HaT4aman to gover-
nor Hughes' campaign fund.
In that letter Mr.. Roosevelt said:
"You have shown by this letter Of
yours that IL Mr.. Harriman's contri-
button to the campaign fund of 1904
(and incidentally I may mention that
I am informed that this particular
contribution was not used for the ma
tional campaign at all but in the New
York state campaign), had been made
known before the election, you and
your supporters would have endeavor-
ed to use the fact Of it's having been
made as an insincere and untruthful
argument to show that could not be
instructed to dole out exact justice
to Mr.. Hartman. No stronger argu-
ment against your proposition has
been advanced than this you have un-
consciously advanced"
