HOOVER, SMITH
RACE MAY COST
{ TEN MILLIONS
Parties Invite Donations
| From 10 Cents to
T Sky Limit.
BY CARL D. GROAT

WASHINGTON, July 20.-The
Smith and Hoover presidential cam
paigns are destined, in the opinion
of political experts here today, to
cost the Democratic and Republican
committees a joint total of from
100000 to $10,000,000.
Counting OUTLAWS to be made by
State county and municipal organi-
cations and bodies or individuals
not directly connected with either
headquarters, this total. it was es-
timated, could run to double or
trable these amounts.
The Republican national commit
tee has decided against placing any
fixed limit on it's campaign budget.
1t will accept both large and small
contributions.
Dime Contributions Welcome
The Democratic committee has let
it be known it will accept contribu-
tions from 40 cents up" and has
placed no top limit on its campaign
chest.
Republican leaders have let it be
known they do not believe $3,0000 900
would suffice for the Hoover cam
paign, and they talk unof1cially Of
a $4,000,000 total. The Smith cam
paign, which, according to its man
ager, John j. Raskob, has offers of
financial aid from big business men,
will undoubtedly cost as much as
the Republican.
Assuming that a $4,O00,000 Repub-
lican total is matched by the Demo-
Gratis, this would mean an 100000
total for both camps, but there are
many who believe November will
see that even this figure was low,
and that the national committees
have put out at least $5,0O0,000 each.
South Puzzles Party
AS for expenses outside the ma
tional committees, there is no way
of correctly estimating in advance.
Some of these expenses never find
their way into any party expense
statement to the Government.
There have been estimates in the
past of $20,000,000 spent by both
parties National, State and county
organizations, but some political
authorities have declared that even
so large a total does not represent
the real outlay for modern presi-
Dental campaign.
Leaders are undecided as to put
ting money in the south where some
anti-Smith sentiment has arisen
and where the Asheville dry confer
ence voted to try to turn dry Demo-
Gratis to Hoover. Some say the
money would be we'll spent; others,
that the solid south will remain
Democratic and the expenditures
would be a waste.

If anybody in New Britain had any doubts about the value of ad- Nertising and saw the crowds at Besse Leland's sale this morning. all those doubts would have been dispelled. A full page ad. announce
 ng the sale, was printed in the Herald last evening and this morn-
 ing, bright and early, there were thousands on hand to pick up bar gains. Three policemen had to work every minute to keep order and at an early hour it was necessary to open the back door and let the crowds out. All morning long and all afternoon. the crowds kept pouring out the alley in back Of the Center church. It was impossi- ble to estimate the number of per- sons visiting there today, but some of the clerks think that everybody ln town and the majority of the people in the state were on hand at some time or another during the day Nobody asked the policemen about it for they would be too tired to talk let alone be interviewed.
