|BORAH DIFFERS l PROBE ANALYSIS
 UNTIL MONDAY
Will Consult Committee Associates Before ls-
 suing Statement
(RY Associated Press. ]

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-Decision as to whether the senate committee in- vestigating campaign funds will submit a partial report before the election on the testimony produced at the hearings in Washington and Chicago was held in abeyance tonight pending a confer ence between members of the commit tee, probably Monday.
 Chairman Borah said tonight that al- though he had very positive ideas bearing on the testimony and thought a statement should be issued for the bene- fit of the public, he did not feel he should issue a statement until he had obtained the views of the other mem- bers of the committee. He reached Washington late today from Chicago, where he and Senator Shipstead, farm er-labor, Minnesota, heard testimony concerning campaign financing.
 Senator Caraway, of Arkansas, and Senator Bayard, of Delaware, both democrats, who conducted the Washing ton section of the hearing, were both out the city today.
 To Be Resumed
 The investigation will be resumed after the election, Chairman Borah said, but not immediately after"
 A telegram was received today by Senator Borah from Frank F. Walsh, in New York, as counsel for the La Toilette organization regarding the com mittee statements, but the chairman said he did not expect to reply to the message.
 Earlier in the day, Walsh issued a statement from his office saying that an analysis of the evidence produced at the committee hearings showed that at least 75 per cent of the republican contributions reported to date have come directly from representatives of great corporate interests"
 The La Toilette attorney declared further that upon the basis of the date now made public, it can be stated as fact that the banking firm of J F. Morgan and company has under. written the republican campaign fund. J

 "This is the issue and these are the battle lines,' he concluded. Citizens of Indiana, where do you stand? Do you stand with that aggregation, the attack ing portion of which are the socialists, flying the red flag and attacking the constitution of the United States? Or do you stand on the rock of the con stitution under the American flag and with President Coolidge, who is up- boiding the cons.itution?'' =.

PEPPER EXPLAINS . C. o. P. KHAN POLICY
Presidents Silence Due To Ob-
 servance Of Law, He Says

PRINCETON, N. J., Nov. 1.-Ans- wering question as to why President Coolidge has failed to answer the query of his stand on the Ku Klux Klan, Senator George Wharton Pepper, re- publican, of Pennsylvania, told an aud fence here last night:
 MT. Coolidge is the chief executive whose function is not 10 denounce citizens or groups of citizens, but to enforce law. A chief executive who undertook to issue manifestos in con- nection with any group of citizens be- fore they have broken the law would himself be lawbreaker. If he failed to inflict punishment when the law was violated he would false to his oath of office. Don't worry about the presi- dents determination to enforce the law" ~
 The question was one of five pro- pounded by the John w. Davis club of Princeton University.

HUGHES PUZZLED: '. AT DAVIS VIEWS
 ON DISARMAMENT
Coolidge Will Be Cher ished By America,
 Secretary Says
(By Associated Prea,.)

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-Secretary of State Hughes wound up his campaign ing here tonight with the declaration, that the opponents of President Cool idge had started out with an attempt to stampede the country with ill measured attacks upon reputation but had found their efforts vain.
 Long after his detractors have been forgotten" he continued, "the memory of Calvin Coolidge will be cherished by the American people.
 Duly Prosecuted
 "Let violators of the law be punished, extraordinary to assert that their mis- conduct, for which they are being duly whoever they may be. but it would be prosecuted, affords any reason why we should adopt free trade instead of pro- tection, or alter our fiscal administra- tion, or change our foreign policy, or have governmental, ownership. or dena- ture the supreme court"
 MT. Hugher declared statements made by John w. Davis as to unemployment during the Harding Coolidge adminis- tration showed "a lack of knowledge of the true state of the record,' the re- publican administration, he said, had inherited crisis from its democratic predecessor, 'and with it 4.5OO,0O0 un- employed,' due to the failure of the democratic administration to prevent postwar imitation. The secretary again dealt at some length with aspects of the Washington arms limitation con ference touched upon by Mir. Davis ill recent speeches.
 q confess that I am mystified," he said. Tn one breath he (Mr. Davis1 is all for disarmament and peace, he wants conferences and many of them. In another, he disparages the only con-. ference of late years that has been reaoe sonably successful. ~e

We have contributed freely of private charity to stricken people, and individu- al Americans have helped to solve this and the other international problem or controversy. But as nation and a government we have preferred through dread of what the Secretary of State calls a renewal of controversy to out line or pursue any steady course. That it is proper to refuse to

 suffer If she deliberately with
 draws when all the other nations of the world assemble to discuss
 matters of world wide concern It is not necessary in order to pre-
 serve her independence or protect her from the risk of being embroiled in alien quarrels, that she could occupy merely the role of 'Peeping Tom when the nations come together.
 "We are on trial before the world. In our attitude toward the World Court there IS ready test by which mankind will try the sincerity or in- sincerity of the professions we have so often made. It furnishes also a test of the sincerity of the present ad- ministration.
 "A new world cannot be built in a day. Even the Wolrd Court is not the final answer to its problems. Each forward step must show the way to that which is to follow, but I for one will not be driven from my faith in the future because it promises not to resemble the past.
 Unwilling to trust the reason and conscience of the country on these ques- tions, there has been in the closing hours of the campaign a studious effort on the part of our republican friends l to play upon the countries fears. Along with other men they see the unrest and discomfort that ride through the land like harbingers of a coming storm. With unparalleled audacity they ask the country to trust the republican party to lay the winds thew themselves have raised.
 Not all the preaching of all the Reds has ever done so much to shake the confidence of the American people in their government as the corruption, the inefficiency and the favoritism that have prevailed in Washington during the present administration. We will not restore the public confidence by | voting to repeat and to continue the conditions which have shaken it. The AntidOte
