Campaign Expenses.
WASHINGTON, March 26.-Sena
tor Kenyon. of Iowa, told the senate
today he thought an investigation OF
the funds Of presidential candidates
in both parties should be made.
Kenyon may embody his views in
a resolution. His suggestion came
when Senator Borah, Idaho, intro
duced a bill limiting the pre-conven-
ton campaign expenditures of any
presidential candidate to $4,000 for
any one state.
Borah's bill provides full publicity
for campaign contributions and ex-
penditures. Violators would be sub
ject to maximum penalty Of $25, 900
fine and two years Imprisonment.
For years" said Borah "the
spending Of money in campaigns has
been increasing. Indications are
that this year there will be a perfect
saturnalia Of corruption directly
through the use of money in the cam
pa1gn. Developments thus far in the
campaign seem to me to make It
necessary for congress to take some
notice. There is no reason why this
bill should not pass in time to be
effective thirty days before the Chi
;ago and San Francisco conventions"
Senator Kenyon at this point said
