In Pittsburgh, Pa, recently
three such organizations were u11-1
earthed the promoters Of which
collected over :z Siii0o00, &C ,00jo.00 in II one
year without being able to show
to any appreciable extent where
the money thus collected went.
There might have been some spas
modic relief, in small amounts, to
a few individuals, but on the whole
the game smells so strongly OF
graft that it almost defies belief.
Il Under the cloak Of charitable
work such organizations send out
their agents and the proceeds are
said to be split on a fifty-fifty
percentage basis. How much Of
the huge sums, thus divided go
actually to those who are in need
of temporary relief is mere con-

.UPTREND FOR DAVIS.
DEMOCRATS CLAIM.
Party Managers Believe He
Will Win Through La Fol-
Iette Raid on G. o. P.
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

With the termination of John W.
Davis Western trip, the Democratic
party believes there has been an un-
mistakable turning point in his for
tunes. Leaders are not yet predicting a
majority for Mr.. Davis in the cleo
toral college. But they confined that
he has at length made a visible dent
in the Coolidge armor and checked
the trend in the Presidents direction.
That was their first objective. They
think it has been accomplished.
With that psychological advantage"
scored, Democratic managers expect
La Follette's raid on Republican
states to do the rest.
The inevitable result, many Of the
Davis field marshalS now figure, will be
to throw the election into the House.
Undoubtedly, that is where Democratic
hopes and prayers are largely centered
at this writing. They are based upon
the belief that in preference to the al
tentative of a Bryan or Wheeler election
to the presidency in the Senate enough
progressive Republicans" not neces-
sarily of the La Toilette stripe, will
join Democratic delegations in the
House to hand the presidential crown
to the West Virginian. These cal
culations are the foundation of Glenn L.
Shaver's recent declaration that, or

candidate can get 2eS ele votes.
Reach "Pad-and-PencA ..sge.
The sixth week before election
finds Coolidge, Davis and La Fol-
lette managers at what may be term
ed the pad-and-pencil stage of the
campaign. Having INDUCED in many
Weeks of tall claims mainly designed
for popular consumption, the higher
ups nowadays are conf1ning their own
figurings to what they, really believe
and not to what they want the public
to think they believe. In the first
place, sage Republican leaders, while
entirely confident of victory, concede
that victory may only be achieved
by a slender margin. These leaders
no longer underestimate the La Fol-
lette strength. They know it is a
menace. The observations of every
competent observer in the West
show that it is. With German-Amer-
leans, railroad labor. malcontent
farmers and radicals of all hues rail-
lied around his banner, La Follette's
supporters comprise a formidable
voting body. They are less danger
Gus in the urban communities of the
East, but in States like Wisconsin,
Minnesota, the two Dakotas, Montana,
Idaho and Washington--all carried
by Harding and Coolidge in 1920 by
heavy majorities-the La Toilette
contingent is decisive factor.

Outlook For Coolidge.
If the combined DaviS-La Toilette

Coolidge would be victor in the

more than the required majority
of 266. These 255 votes would be
made up as follows:
