be brought into the open. Judge
 Charles E. Hughes, when he was i governor advocated form of direct primaries, as different from that
 which was secured under profess sional politics as dalilight from l dark. It would have taken the nom- nations of public officials out of the control of the professional politician and lodged it in the hands of the membership of each party.
 Selfish, rich corporations are per mitted. under present conditions to contribute vast sums for the cam paign or to consent to be liable for immense deficits because there seems to be no other method of raising the necessary funds. But if President Roosevelts method were studied and recommended by President Hoover's commission, it would doubtless work a revolution in the political life of both parties.
 Prof. James K. Pollock, of the University of Michigan, in his book, Party Campaign Funds" has set forth the history of this movement. Colorado in 1909 passed a law pro- viding that the state should appro- priate sum of money to each politi- cal party for the purpose of con- ducting political campaigns. It for bade any contributions to the polt- cal parties save such sums as the state appropriated and such limited | sums as the candidates might offer l The law was declared unconstitu- tional by the supreme court of Col orado. It is unfortunate that it was not allowed to show how the law
 would have worked.
 Tt may not be feasible for the government to pay all expenses of candidates in elections and perhaps
 not in the primary. but there are many specific things that could be done, namely, first, requirement of full publicity regarding all cam
 paign receipts and expenditures, sec
 ond, strict prohibition of certain un-
 desirable types of expenditures and contributions, third, assistance by the government in the form of publicity

all, democratic financing of cam. paigns, arising from recognition ol the fact that a candidacy should not be an individual enterprise but should be supported by a consider able group of citizens willing to con tribute small amounts, and some method of preventing any party from mourning any large indebtedness.
 The National Commission needs the help of every upright citizen. We have right to ask them to rec ommend some such plan of cam- paign in our war against crime. as I have suggested. We may ask them to give us:
 "1. A new department of public welfare with seat in the presidents cabinet, authorized to administer new education in behalf of a more loyal citizenship.
 70. A new artillery to render cer- tain a swift and certain administra- ton of justice against not merely the 18th amendment but against all Vio- lators of the law on great scale. It l involves a reorganization of the ad ministraton of our federal laws and court procedure.
 "3. A new system of politics. in which the rights of the members of l each party shall be duly safe guarded against the domination by selfish criminal interests and in which the salaries of party managers and all necessary party workers shall 1 be frankly paid out of the public 1 treasury. and not secretly paid in violation of the law.
 President Hoover, in his address to | the Associated Press well said:
 "But large responsibility rests directly upon our citizens. There would be little traffic in illegal l- quor if only criminals patronized it. | We must awake to the fact that this patronage from large numbers ! of Iaw-abiding citizens is supplying the rewards and stimulating crime
 Tn our war against crime we ap- peal to the heroic in all our citizens. Let us emulate Washington, Lin coin and President Roosevelt in their loyalty to law. to God and 10 country.
 We need new patriots like those of old.

 Miss Ridley, one of the hardest hitters among the British women players, had the greater power and in the driving duels piled up points to win five straight games. Mrs. Bundy took the next two, often carrying the attack to the net. Net ting cost the American the ninth game and the set, however.
