SENATE To LOOK
INTO SLU1H FUND
Use IN ELECTION

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 14.-Ad-
Einistration officials early today an
nounced definitely that a senatorial
investigation into the alleged misuse
of money in the recent presidential
campaign will be made. Preliminary
plans for starting the investigation
have been completed, and resolu-
tion providing the necessary machin-
cry to press the probe to a speedy
conclusion is ready for introduction
when congress meets early in De-
cember.
Charges that republican campaign
managers fiagrantly violated election
laws by the illegal use of money in
their endeavor to influence voters.
have been openly made since the re-
cent presidential election, and it is the
purpose of the Wilson administration
to pIobe these to the bottom. The in
vcstigation will be especially thorough
III certain states where the vote for
presidential electors was extremely
close, and where it is asserted the
republican managers used money op-
emily in the effort to defeat President
Wilson for reelection. The probe is to
be non-partisan, and the investigating
committee viii be composed Of both
democrats and republicans, though a
majority will likely be adherents of
the administration party.
Reports concerning the use of
money in certain states have come to
both democratic and republican head
quarters, and evidence is being COL
lected by party managers representing
both sides. Late today it was planned
to call all those actually in charge
OF campaign finances, democratic ana
republican alike, before the senate
committee to facilitate the investiga-
tion of details of certain transactions
alleged to have been illegal.

seemingly had lost their enthusiasm,
and stated that something would be
done in short while in an effort to
bring them back to life.

the campaign against the boil weevil

western state which offered to give a
$3.50 silk petticoat to every woman
who would send 10 cents and forward
a letter to five of her friends recon-

proportion to the population as there
