Move to Limit Money Spending
In Elections.

In 1910. Congress passed an Act
limiting to $4,000 the, amount Of
money any Congressional candidate
could legally spend IN securing both
his nomination and election. This
applied to all candidates both for
the United States Senate and the U.
S. House Of representatives. 1t was
known as the federal Corrupt Prac-
tices Act.
The Supreme Court of the United
States recently decided in the now
famous Newberry case that Congress
had no constitutional power to
enact legislation limiting the ex-
penditure of candidates. and in eff
feet invalidating the Corrupt prac-
tices Act of 1910. This threw the
flood gates wide open. There is
nothing to limit the amount of mon
ey any Congressional candidate can
spend except his conscience and the
size of his purse. To remedy this
situation, Members of the House
Committee. on election of President,
Vice-President and members of Con-
gress, both Democrats and Repub
licans, unanimously decided, but a
day or two ago, to proceed to the
construction and enactment of a
bill prohibiting candidates for the
United States Senate from spending,
in both primaries and general elec-
tions, more than $4,000. Candi-
dates for the United States House of
Representives, under the terms of
the proposed measure, can not leg
ally spent mole than IS, 900 in both
the primary and general elections.

This, however, does not include

expressed as to whether such a bill
will be passd in time to he applica

eral elections. In the event the
House Committee above referred to
should come to the conclusion that
such a bill cannot be passed SO as
to be constitutional, an effort will

tendency to bring in disrepute all
laws of the land and encourages the
law violator to greater efforts in
acts of lawlessness.
These people keep up the howl
that prohibition cannot be enforced.
1t is being enforced just about as
effectually as most of the laws on
our statute books. We have had
law against murder for hund-
reds of years and still people
kill each other. but no one will
advocate the repeal of the statute
against murder; we have had law
against theft, and still people
steal, but no one advocates the
repeal of this statute. 1t is just as
consistent to advocate the repeal of
the law against murder and theft
orany other law as to advocate the
repeal the law against prohibition.
One is just as sensible as the otl,er.
Another thing which the whiskey
people are attempting to do is to
elect wet congress. That is, a ma.
jority of the members of the con-
gress who will be in favor of the
repeal of the Volstead Act. They
are raising their millions to do this
with. They think money will
bring about the desired result. The
friends of prohibition must keep
their eyes open and fight this thing
to the end. We must not let up or
weaken in the fight. We can win
and we are going to win. The whis-
key people have poor showing.
Ninty per cent of the women will
vote against the whiskey ring. and
there are enough men who are
straight and honest who will vote to
put out this enemy of mankind.
The signs all point to congress
this fall that will be just as strong
against whiskey as the present con-
gress is. Take Indiana in the elec-
tions of a United States Senator.
The Honorable Albert J. Beverage
is staunch prohibitionist and he
will be the next United States sem
ator from Indiana. Take our own 4th
Congressional District. 1t will be
either Cordell Hull of Wayne +.
CIouse, and both are strong prohi-
bitionist. There is nothing to gain
here for the whiskey people. And
what is true here and in Indiana is
true in the majority of the states.
We are going to win. But We must
fight and stand together, and can
that grouchy disposition.
