PUBLICITY LAW PUZZLING.
Senate omcIals Decline to Give Out
Expense Statements.


Expense Statements.
Senate officials are at a loss to in
terpret the meaning of the new pub
Iicity law just passed by Congress.
1t was discovered after Senators Martin
and Swanson, OF Virginia, had filed the
expenses of their primary campaign
that the new law, supposed to be the
most drastic ever passed. did not require
publicity of the individual statements
fled by candidates for the Senate or
House Of Representatives. For this rea-
son officials of the Senate declined to
give out the statements.
The law requires the fling of individual
expense statements, but 1t apparently
left to the discretion of the Secretary of
the Senate or the Clerk OF the House to
decide whether these statements shall be
made public.
