EXPENSES TO BE
PUBLISHED.

The most drastic campaign pub
licity legislation ever passed in
either branch of congress, was
adopted by the senate Monday
without a dissenting vote. Using
the prediction publicity bill pass
ed by the House of Representa-
tives as a basis, the Senate con-
structed a proposed law with the
following important features:
No candidate for the Senate or
House shall spend in the electiO
more than a sum equal to ten
cents for. each voter in his dis
trict or state.
No senatorial candidate shall
be charged a total of more than
$4,000 in the primary and gener-
/ election; and no candidate for
the House shall spend more than
$1,000.
Publicity must be given to all
primary campaign contributions
and expenditures.
All general election expenses
must be made public before the
election, and making publication
each six days until election.
All promises of political jobs
must be made public. The bill
further makes it illegal to prom
ise political places in order to
