penditures; Popular Subscriptions Wanted;
Don't Send More Than $1,000.
tBy THE ASSOCIATED PRESS,

New York, Nov. 23.--An appeal
for contributions to make up a
deficit of approximately $500, 900
in the campaign fund of the repub-
lican national committee was sent
out tonight by Will II. Hays, its
chairman.
The appeal. addressed to the
republicans of the country and all
those who aided thsm.' called at
tentioh to the report of the treas
urer filed yesterday In Washington,
pointing out that although the buy
ing power of the dollar was ma
teriaill' less than in 1916. the 1920
campaign had actually been con-
Quoted at less expense than the
Hughes campaign four years ago.
Mr.. Hays accompanied his plea
Tor further funds by an expression
of highest praise for the spirit of
republicans during the campaign.
More than $4,000 individuals con-
tributed about $4,000, ,000 to the
fund. he said.
The presidential campaign this
year cost approximately $3, 400, 900.
exclusive Of pre-convention ex-
penditure, he wrote. leaving a net
deficit tof nearly a million and a
half dollars. This. he declared. he

amounts less than the 81 900 limit
set during the campaign.
Addressing the editors of repub-
lican newspapers. the statement de-
clared that the national commit
tee would have been gratified,
naturally, had it been possible to
raise all the money necessary by
the small gift methods. This, how
ever, was hardly to be expected as
this has been the first real effort
in that direction"
Il know the method is right"
Mr.. Hays added. "and | am con-
vinced that you and every other
republican want us to distribute
the expense of campaigning in this
manner If it can be done at all.
To this end we are going to make
public appeal for funds and In
this effort want your help. The
success of the appeal will be of in
estimable benefit to future party
financing and will go far in aiding
our efforts to place the business
of politics on the highest possible
plane"
Contributions. he said, should be
sent to Fred w. Upham. treasurer,
or James G.. Blaine. Jr.. eastern

tional committee. at the commit
tees office. 10 West Forty-fourth
