|DRy:FUND TREBLED
BY SENATE GROUP
Committee Votes Additional
Appropriation of $25,000,-
600 for Liquor Enforcement.
BY the Associated Press.


The Senate appropriation committee
yesterday voted to triple the fund for
dry law enforcement. favoring appro-
priation of $25,O0O,000, which would be
added to the $13,500,000 already appro-
priated.
If the increase is approved by Con-
gress, it will provide the highest figure
ever available in the history of the
Volstead act for prosecution of the dry
law.
Before voting on the proposal, how
ever. the Senate intends to wait for
report from the Prohibition Bureau
as to how the money would be spent.
Several vets in the Senate have in
dictated they will not oppose the in
crease, if in their Judgment the funds
are, properly allocated.
Harris Urged Increase.
Senator Harris, Democrat Georgia,
who recently described present enforce
ment conditions as farce" advocated
the large increase. He offered a motion
for the $25,000,000 boost before the
appropriations committee, of which he
deficiency supply bill. The Georgia
Senator. who is dry, originally asked
for a fund of $50,000,000 to enforce
the liquor laws. He attributed lack
of enforcement at the present time to
insufficient money.
Almost at the same time that this
proposal for the increase will come be-
fore the Senate, report Is expected
from the judiciary committee on the
Joint wet and dry solution to have Her.
bert Hoover after he becomes President
appoint commission to make sweep
ing investigation of enforcement and to
make recommendations to the President
and Congress.
This proposal, offered by Senators
Edge of New Jersey, wet, and Jones
of Washington, dry, both Republicans,
will be acted upon Monday by the judi
ciary committee.
Has Stamp Of Authority.
Unlike previous futile attempts by
wet, Senator Bruce. Democrat. Mary.
land. to increase the prohibition fund
bv $3.50. 900 900, the Harris proposal with
support of the appropriations commit
tee, carries the stamp of authority. The
increase is expected to receive the sup
port of the drys and such vets as SEN
ator Edge, Republican of New Jersey,
who declared he would have no obJec-
ton to the large figure if the Prohibition
Bureau can show that the money will
be spent wisely.
Since the prohibition lay became
effective 10 years ago, the largest
amount appropriated directly for en-
forcement was in the neighborhood OF
$4,000, 900, although members OF Con-
gress have estimated that the money
actually spent on prohibition when all
phases of the law are considered was
considerably higher.

uted $780, 900 in Four Years,
Mrs. Sherman Tells Probers.

Eighty thousand dollars was con-
tributed between 1924 and 1928 by the
National Electric Light Association to
the General Federation of Woman's
Clubs, according to testimony presented
yesterday to the Federal Trade Commits
sion. It also was declared that while
Mrs. John D. Sherman of Estes Park,
Colo, was the federation president, the
association had paid $500 each for "a
magazine articles written by her.
Mrs. Sherman told the commission
she had been paid for the articles deal
ing with the federation's better equip
ped homes campaign" by the Lord,
Thomas & Logan Agency, which had
placed the articles with magazines for
publication.
Under questioning by Robert E.
Healy, chief counsel for the commission.
Mrs. Sherman said during her four
years of the federation presidency the
100000 contribution from the light
association, together with $4,000 from
the American Gas Association, had
been received by her organization.
George F. Oxley, director of public
relations for the light association, who
followed her on the stand, testified the
association had paid the Lord, Thomas
& Logan Agency $500 for each article
written while his organization was con-
Quoting Nationwide advertising cam
paign. A total of $116 was received
from magazines with which the articles
were placed for publication, he added.
Denies Furnishing Material.
The association did not furnish any
of the material for the articles, Oxley
declared, nor was any money paid to
the magazines to have them printed
He thought only IL or Is of the "a arti-
Giles had been published.
Mrs. Sherman in prepared state
ment, declared she had never written
articles for the light association and
had never been on the associations pay
roll
She explained that after launching
the better homes campaign in 1926 the

cussed in the Fall of 1926 with the
managing director of the National Elec-
trio Light Association, who was asked
whether the association would, in addi-
ton to its previously pledged contribu-
ton in connection with the federations
home equipment survey, provide the I'M
derwriting and revolving fund.
Arrangements were then made with
the Lord. Thomas & Logan Agency for
the placement of one article a month
for a year at 5000. From that time on
sent my articles to the Logan agency
and received payment directly from the
agency"
Subjects Not Dictated.
Later similar agreement was made
for another IL articles, she added, and
all money received from magazines pub
fishing the articles was to revert to the
revolving fund.
Mrs. Sherman declared that no off,

They were similar to articles she wrote
for magazines during her first two
years as president and before the ar

made, she added.
