oLUSH COMMITTEE
ADJOURNS To MEET
AGAIN ON SEPT. e

CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-THE senate
committee Investigating campaign
expenditures today wound up a two
weeks inquiry into charges by Gov
ernor Cox that the Republican party
is seeking a $15,000,00O fund. The
sessions here also developed testi-
mony bearing upon charges that the
Democratic party solicited campaign
contributions from office holders and
other contributors.
The committee will meet again
on September %, either in Washing
ton or New York, Chairman Kenyon
being empowered to choose the city.
Senator Kenyon said If Washington
was selected the witnesses who
were to have been heard at Pitts
burg would be called to the capital.
The committee had planned meet
ing in PittSburg to investigate re-
ports that Pennsylvania liquor in
terests were helping finance the
Democratic campaign.
Today's hearing was conducted by
Chairman Kenyon, Republican. and
Senators Reed and Pomerene, Demo-
Gratis; Senators Spencer and Edge,
Republicans, were absent, having
left Chicago last night after issuing
a statement deriding the Cox
charges.
Republican. plans for a seven-day
drive for funds in Chicago and tes-
timony that the Democrats had as
sessed girl employees of the internal
revenue office at Aberdeen, S. D., $40
each to help finance the Democratic
campaign, were the topics of to-
days inquiry.
Frederick Courtenay Barber, of
New York, a professional money
raiser in charge, of the Chicago Re
publican drive, told the committee
he had prepared a card index of
about $4,000 prospective ccontribu..
about 700, or 500, each of whom was
believed able to give $1,000. Up
wards of 5000 workers are engaged
in the one weeks drive he said, with
100000 as the goal.
Chicago Fund
Testimony by Caleb Enix, a local
newspaperman, that the Republican
national committee had sent out
publicity matter giving the Chicago
quotas as 100000, led Mr.. Barber
to say he had heard others make the
same statements but he '1et them
rave" His goal, he emphasized, was
100000.
:" Did you ever discuss the amount
with Fred w. Upham, treasurer Of
the Republican national committee"
asked Senator Reed.
Yes, sir, that is, there was not
an awful lot of discussion about it.
Mr.. Upham would say something
and I would listen and not CONTRA
dict him, all the time with my own
plan in mind. Mr.. Upham in some
talks with me mentioned 100000,
but I could not be sure whether he
mentioned it for all of Illinois or
only for Cook county"
Miss Eunice Coyne, a newspaper
reporter in Aberdeen, S. D., and Miss
Jesse Burchard, of Minneapolis,
clerk in the Aberdeen internal reve-
nue. collectors office, told of the
Democratic effort to raise money
from girl clerks. Miss Burchard
said she had willingly donated $40
of her salary of 1920 a month after
receiving letter from a Democratic
campaign fund raiser requesting her
to call at his hotel and arrange this
matter" About a dozen of the girl
clerks went to the hotel, she test1-
fed, and subscribed $40 each at that
time.
A copy Of the letter said to have
been received by the girls was pre-

HARDING LIKELY TO
LEAVE MARION FOR
WESTERN CAMPAIGN

MARION, O., Sept. ian end of
what he termed governmental med
ding and bungling' in the financial
world and a return to an era of
sober business" was promised by
Senator Harding. in addresses
men from Indiana, Illinois, and
Charging the Democratic admins
tration with ,prodigal waste in the
conduct of it's fiscal affairs and
EDITORIAL intrusion in its relations
with private enterprise, the Repub-
lican nominee declared it was his
government restrictions and to re-
esta blish cooperation between gov~
eminent and business.
In reorganization of the govern
ment's own financial system, he
said, he would seek the advice of
Revision of taxation and of the
tariff, curtailment Of profiteering,
establishment of Il federal budget
system, reorganization of the postal
service and promotion of a mer-
chant marine were among the RENE
dies he named specifically. He de-
clared conspiracy of perfect ac-
cord' between the administration
and the Democratic nominee was
seeking to perpetuate the war pow
ers exercised by the executive over
private business.
The senator also touched on the
league issue, declaring a discrepancy
between the English and French
texts Of the covenant would have
led to complications which in the
practical working of the league
would have meant entire abandon
ment of the Monroe doctrine.
The visiting crowds of business

Hammond and a number of other
cities, cheered the nominee repeat
eddy as he hit at the business con-
duct of the Wilson administration
and pronounced his own program of
pilgrimage by special train and au-
Ntomobile. and the total number who
heard the senator's two speeches
marked the high peak of front porch
crowds during any single day.
Tentative pans for speaking trips
by the candidate to both coasts have
reached the stage, it became known
here today, where an itinerary of
cities is under discussion. AS these
plans now shape up they would
carry the senator into many states
and would keep him away from
Marion most of the time from late
September to election day.
definite decision probably would not
be reached for several days. but it
was indicated that both the nominee
and his managers were inclining to-
ward the coast-to-coast proposal.
The senator himself has taken the
position that should he go into the
west at all he must visit every
western state in which there is a
senatorial contest, and it is under
stood that his wish in that regard
is to prevail.
The tentative list of cities to be
visited is understood to include
New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Bal
timore, Indianapolis. Louisville,
Milwaukee, or Madison, Omaha, ST.
Louis, Sioux Falls or Pierre, Bis
marck or Fargo, Butte, Boise City,
Salt Lake City, Denver. Reno. Tue
son, Oklahoma City,, LosN Angeles.
San L Francisco, Portland, Seattle
and Spokane. The western swing
would come first, beginning probably
about September 81 eand the visit to
eastern cities would follow late in
October
