MELLON STATES
CALLS
FOR REAL CASH
(By Dispatch A. 2. Wire)

WASHINGTON, June 14.-4While the
senate campaign fund committee was
unearthing today more intimate de-
tails of the spending of something
like million and half dollars in
the recent Pennsylvania republican
primary, Secretary Mellon declared in
formally that he believed the commit
tee would find the expenditures to
have been essential under the pre-
vailing system.
At the same time, Representative
Rubey, democrat, Missouri, drafted a
constitutional amendment under which
persons spending huge sums for their
election would be barred from con-
gress. He would limit senators to
$4,000 for the primary and general
election and members of the house
to $4,000. For five hours today the
senate investigators pounded away at
two witnesses who are associated with
the so-called Grundy political organi-
zation in Pennsylvania and learned
that the president of the Pennsylvania
Manufacturers association supplied
cash up to total of $381,575 in such
sums and at such times as the citi7
zens' committee supporting the Pep
Fisher ticket wanted 1t.
Swinging into another night session
tonight, the committee sought infor-
amtion on the expenses in Philadelphia
and eastern Pennsylvania of Repre-
sentative Ware, victor of Senator Pep
per and Governor Pinchot in the three
way senatoial contest.
Secretary Mellon, who returned to
Pittsburgh just before the May pri-
mary to make the first political speech
of his life talking for the Pepper
Fisher ticket, gave his observations
on the expenditures today in response
to persistent inquiries from newspa-
per correspondents who crowded his
office at the treasury for a semi
weekly conference.
The secretary declared that pri-
mary in Pennsylvania could not be
carried on for less money than was
expended, explaining that the expendi-
lures were principally for the hire of
watchers and for advertising. He add
ed that watchers were indispensable
under the Pennsylvania primary sys
tenn and were authorized by law.
Adverting to the pay of SO a day
tic watchers at the polls, Mellon said
he .conNidered that fair compensa-'
tion for a days work.
The secretary estimated at $4,000
the cost of mailing one letter to each
voter in Pennsylvania, and said that
where one candidate resorted to news
papers and other advertising all oI
them would be obliged to do like,

El Universal conducted a contest in
Mexico last year along somewhat the
same lines as those of the National
Oratorical Contest in the United
States. Last year, however, the Mexi
can contest was based primarily on
essay work. This year it will be an
oratorical contest throughout.
Sent to Los Angeles.
The three best speakers in the 1925
Mexican contest went to Los Angeles
last September and there participated
in a meeting. arranged by El Universal
and the Los Angeles Times. with the
three best speakers developed in the
Pacific Coast division of the National
Oratorical Contest in the United
States. One of these Pacific Coast
spokesman in that meeting was Eu-
gene +. McElmeel, who won second
place at Washington in the 1925 finals.
In the meeting at Los Angeles the
Mexican representatives spoke Span
ish. the audience being supplied with
parallel column translation of their
speeches. The Mexican champion last
year was Antonio Martinez Raez.
whose speech on Constitutional Gov
ernment.'' is reprinted in English in
the 1926 oratorical contest booklet.
The Mexican speakers were enthuS-
iastically received in Los Angeles,
the audience showing particular in
terest in comparing the tonal quail
ties of Spanish and English, as ex-
emplified by the youthful spokesmen
of the two republics.
The international oratorical contest
Is in reality a series of independently
conducted national contests coming
to a climax with the meeting in Wash
ington on October Is next. In each
of the participating nations the
speakers will discuss their own ma
tional institutions. The meeting of
October Is in Washington. therefore,
will be the first occasion on which
the best youthful speakers of the
leading nations of the world will be
heard interpreting their own insttu-
tions in their own languages.

contest follows: Frank B. Noyes. The
