Why Big Biz Finances Political Campaigns

Who contributes to the cam paign slush funds? This ques- ton was answered by Senator Lodge, Republican leader in the Senate, while that body was dis cussing campaign contributions. Here is his answer: T think I am putting 1t moderately" said the Senator, when l say that nine-tenths of the money ex- pended on behalf of the party of the Senator from Arkansas GA Democrat), as we'll as mine, IS raised in New York;
 When the Senator speaks of New York he does not mean that the workers and the com mon folks of that metropolis contribute to the campaign funds of either party but what he meant Is, that the big banking in terests, the ''open shop" manu- facturer, and all the big inter ests, commonly known as Wall Street, are putting up the money to finance the campaign.
 Wall Street does not finance campaigns because it cares any thing about the leaders of the old parties nor does 1t 1avishly give it's money for the sport of playing politics. Wall Street has a selfish purpose, many time. more valuable than the amount that it, contributes to the reac- tionary leaders in both parties.

ELEVATOR OPERATOR AVERTS NEAR TRAGEDY
 IN NEW YORK CITY

New York, June 21.-Ernest Nova, co1ored elevator operator, calmly worked at the emergency appliance in his elevator Monday morning as 1t plunged at breakneck speed down 10 floors, and brought it to stop foot below the level of the first floor saw ing its IA occupants from serious in juries.
 As result of his presence of mind, the IA persons-eight women, five men and a boy-sufered nothing worse than minor injuries to backs and feet and few cases of hysteria. All the elevator occupants were removed to hospital in a communicated motor van.
 Nova operates an elevator in West Fourth street loft building. The heavily loaded car started its wild journey when a cable snapped. When the emergency brake did not immedi- ate1y halt the lifts progress, Nova attempted to throw the brakes with the use of a patented device. It failed to respond With his passen- gers screaming hysterically, Nova con tinued to work at the device as the car shot by floor after floor with ever increasing momentum and succeeded in springing the emergency mechan- of the bottom of its concrete lined pit.

For example, Teapot Dome was worth over hundred million dollars and apparently cost only $100000 and a suit case!
 Ii Wall Street contributes nine-tenths of the slush fund, the political job holders prob ably contribute the other tenth. Thus the farmers, the workers and the great mass of the people have no financial interests in these old parties and for the life of me 1 can't see how they ever expect to get anything out of them unless they contribute to the funds of the progressive ele- ment, whether, they be Republi- can, Democratic or Independent.
 Until the people learn that they will get nothing out of poli- tics until they invest in it just as Wall Street does, they may expect to remove the privileges which the big interests have al ready obtained i'll this country or obtain legislation for the com mon good.
 Progressive citizens in gener- al, especially the workers, should immediately get in touch with their local campaign committees and not only give but assist Tn raising funds from their neigh bors to elect more friends of the people to State and national offices.

A PRESIDENTIAL IMPASSE

The serious talk of third party movement in the nation
has brought forward consideration the dangers which
may be encountered by too great division Of popular op
ION between parties and the advantage of party
dominant parties The Constitution provides that no can
ddate can be chosen by the electoral college President
or Vicepresldent except majority all of the
members If third party movement captured large block
OF votes IN the electoral college, situation might result
wherein candidate could gain majority of the votes
there regardless Of the decision at the polls
In the event President is not chosen bv March A.
the date OF the expiration of terms of Presidents the Con-
sution provides then the Vcepresdent shall act as Pres
lden as IN the of the death other constitutional dis
ability of the PRESIDENT The section of course open to
various interpretations If there is Vicepresident
take the office, the presidency would go Secretary of
state If the electoral college fails to choose Vicepres
dent by majority of all the electors the Senate shall choose
between the two candidates having the highest number of
electoral college votes.
The election of President would be thrown into the
house OF Representatives. In the house the voting would
be by states each state having and majority Of
all states necessary for election. The house could ballot
only for the three presidential candidates having had the
highest votes in the electoral college, No other names could
be considered.
Too great division of party votes makes for minority
government 1t possible that this should be brought home
forcbly to the country next year.
