Many members of Congress lecture
during the Summer months. Some
make speeches for pay during the
session of Congress. These usually
are for isolated orga niZations. With
the exception of the Anti-Saloon
League, no national organization is
hiring members of Congress to make
speeches. IL the manufacturers as
sociat tion or the steel trust or the in
ternational banking houses were to
pay members of Congress to make
speeches decrying certain proposals
aimed at them. and the informa ton
were made public, the practice would
cause furore.

Members of Congress Hired.

But the striking thing which Sen
ator Reed has uncovered and on
which there probably will be no paral-

members of Congress are hired to
make speeches for the dry cause and
are paid substantial fees for so doing.
