HAYS REPLIES TO COX;
 STANDS BY TESTIMONY

New York. Sept 5.-Will H. Hays, chairman of the republican national com mittee, issued a statement here today in reply to Governor Cox's attack on the truthfulness of his testimony before the senate committee Investigating campaign contributions which the democratic pres idential nominee made in an address in Milwaukee yesterday. The statement said:
 According to the public reports, Gov ernor Cox yesterday made the following accusation against me personally:
 q charge that Will H. Hays perpetrat- ed deliberate falsehood when he said under oath that there were no quotas.
 Tn my written statement read to the senate committee on August 30 in Chi cago I said:
 "Tentative quotas were fixed by the treasurer's office, all tentatives and rath- CT as a goal. always high, of course. for the particular state to drive for, and changing constantly.
 At different periods different quotas have been suggested by the treasurer's office as tentative goals in different states. and the state committees them selves have fixed different quotas. These. as above suggested, are changing con- stantly, and always, were made very much higher than either necessary or an ticipated. The fact is. the quotas meant little. Furthermore, whatever may have been suggested as quotas bv overzealous solicitors in their enthusiasm in different localities, the fact remains that cer- tain amount was believed necessary and the budget above referred to was indicat- cd therefore, which is s3,O79.O37.2O for the use of the national committee When this amount was fixed as the budget, that became the sum fixed for the treasurer 10 reach and the purpose became defn- ite. The fact at all times remains that the treasurer is driving to collect enough and no more than enough to meet the necessary expenses estimated to bc something in excess of three million dol something in excess of three million dol lars.
 These are the facts. Let the public judge as to tic truth of falsity of Gov ernor Cox's accusation. It has the same reckless Responsibility as his claim ot s15,o0n.o00. Further comment on the re liability of his statements is unnecessa ry"

ilized nations, says MT. Bonar Law, he would have been liable to be shot. In stead. he was tried by legally consti- tuted tribunal, sentenced to a modera te term of imprisonment and given all the privileges of a political prisoner.
 To release such prisoners" asserts MT. Bonar Law would be nothing short of betrayal of loyal officers on whose devotion to duty the fabric of social or der in Ireland rests"
 Since MacSwineys arrest it is pointed out in the letter, fifteen officers have been brutally and treacherously done to death without chance of defending themselves.
 Surely" continues the letter, "tl.e sympathy extended to the lord mayor whose condition is due to his own ls- hberate act. is due rather to the be- bereaved widows and families of the murdered Irish policemen. The govern. ment fully realizes how large part sentiment plays in all human affairs and if it were possible it would gladl, have taken the attitude of the ,Englisf king who said of an opponent: He is determned to make himself a martyr and I am equally determined to prevent it."
 MT. Bonar Law declares in conclusion that the government cannot take z course involving the complete breakdown of the machinery of law and govern. ment, and that if the lord mayor dies ir prison the responsibility will rest ir some degree upon those who by their re. peated appeals have encouraged the be lief that the government would prove in sincere in it's determination.
