Will Run If His
Expenses Are Paid

The time for A. Grant Miller to
signify to the State Central Socialist
committee whether or not he will be
candidate for United States sena-
tor has been extended to June /. Mil
Ter is willing to make the run, but he
insists that the party must pay his
expenses, and this question is now
being considered by the Socialist ma
tional committee.
In the last campaign Miller paid
nearly all of his own expenses but is
to do so again. To be the
Socialist candidate for senator is a
good advertisement, but the benefits
that accrue are hardly commen surate
with the expenses entailed. At least,
that is Miller's view OF the matter.
