DEMANDS EXPLANATION
OF MONEY SPENDING
IN PRIMARIES.

Washington, March 22.-Act-

to Leonard Woods campaign
fund, Senator William E. Borah,
republican, of Idaho, called OH
the general and his campaign
managers today for the names
of subscribers. amounts and the
manner in which it is being
used"
General Woods managers not
only owe it TO their candidate.
but "still more to the party and
the country to clear these
charges in an unmistakable
way" Senator Borah declared,
in a statement.
"The use of money in elections
has reached a point where the
people will have to take hold of
it," he said. at is nothing less
than a national peril that two
months before the convention
the use of money in the attempt
to control the convention has
reached the point of a scandal.
THAT a vast sum of money is
being spent is perfectly apparent
I have seen letters from South
Dakota, Virginia and Illinois
showing the people generally are
becoming restless in the face of
the apparent use of money for
corrupt purposes.
From what | have known of
General Wood | would not sus-
pect him for a moment of doing
the things himself which are be-
ing charged against him: but II
is not sufficient that he does not
himself actually participate. He
can not be the recipient of IA
vors of such a campaign without
himself being responsible.
| hope General Wood or his
managers will not permit this
matter to go until it will become
a subject which others will have
to take hold Of"
