Wilbur w. Marsh Would Limit
Amount Of Campaign
Contributions.

NEW YORK, November 1S.-Pfohibi-
tion by law of any person contributing
more than $1,000 to a campaign fund

ing to raise 100000 to wipe out the

Mr. Marsh expressed his belief that
a new corrupt practices act governing
the financial phase of political cam
paigns will be passed before the next

There should not be any limit to what
the committee in charge of a campaign
can spend. but there certainly should
be a limit placed on wealthy citizens
who buy, or seek to buy. place at the
White House table or in the councils OF

Small subscriptions, on the other
hand. he said. represent unselfish pa

tributions to recent presidential cam
paign funds. Mr.. Marsh said that al
though they are exceptions to his gen
eral criticism Of big contributions. they
did not affect the wisdom of the rule
he proposed of limiting subscription:
to $1,000. Cleveland H. Dodge, the
largest contributor to the democratic
fund in this election. and Charles +

Killed Potomac Fish,

Potomac river fishermen are still dis

Of the death of many fish. the govern

standing. Recently the bureau of fish
cries conducted an investigation as to
the causes of the death of the fish. and
the reports Of the experts state that 1t
was found that gas from the decayins
vegetable matter in the bottom of the
Potomac and other tributaries of the bay
was causing heavy mortality among the
fish.
This vegetable matter brought down
from the upper river and deposited de-
cayed under wafer and produced the
poisonous gas that put an end to many
fish. OF this the fishermen are very
skeptical.
