| PROBE in MOVE
Committee Now at Capital
; for Continuation of
Investigation.
BV UHited Press

WASHINGTON. Jan Owls
eonsip's legislative investigation of
campaign expenditures and methods
In that state moved to the national
capital today
Having discovered that candidates
within their state showed almost
unanimous disregard for the law
governing political campaign eX-
penditures. the legislative investi-
eating committee today concerned
itself with the part played by out
siders in Wisconsin politics and It's
representatives in the national gov
eminent.
TWO state senators and three as
eemblymen comprise the committee
which met here Tuesday. The pur-
pose Of their sessions is to discover
violations OF the states corrupt
practices act and TO make recon-
mendations for undermining and
strengthening this law.
Hearings in Wisconsin
Exten,tve hearings In Wisconsin
disc 'oseo not one candidate for
state Office who had made any at
tempt to ascertain the amount of
money spent on his behalf by local
organizations and individuals
throughout the state. Few admit
ted they knew the act required that
these sums be counted in the total
of expense to which they were lin
ited. Nearly all insisted that such
a system is impractical.
The investigation originally was
aimed at the campaign of Cover
nor Walter J. Kohler. La Follc tie
prOgresSiveS, whose candidate Koh-
Ter defeated In the primary, charged
that 100000 was spent on behalf
of the millionaire manufacturer.
Kohler joined In the demand for
an investigation, forcing the pro-
gressiyes to include the last five
years in its scope. The broader
survey covered campaigns in which
the La Toilette group repeatedly
elected its candidates to state Of
nee ana 10 congress.
Committee Personnel
An custer proceeding instituted
against the Governor under provi-
sions OF this same corrupt prac-
tees act is now pending in the
Wisconsin supreme court. Lower
courts declared unconstitutional
that portion of the law which pro-
vided for removal of the Governor
by any means other than impeach-
ment. An appeal from that de-
ciSion was argued before the
supreme court last month.
A three-day session of the COM
mittee is scheduled here. Secre-
taries of the national Republican
and Democratic committees are eX-
pected to testify. Senator Robert
M. La Toilette and John j. Blaine
and other members from the Wis
consin congressional delegation
have indicated a willingness to ap-
pear for questioning. Personnel of
the committee includes Senator
George Blanchard. Edgerton, chair
man; Senator Oscar Morris, Mil
waukee, and Assemblymen J. w.
Carow, Ladysmith; Moulton B. Golf,
Sturgeon Bay, and Robert A. Nixon,

Redwood Falls District Champs

In the first round of games Red
wood Falls eliminated Gibbon by a
score of 33 to Is. Friday evening the
Redwood team met Springfield in a
good battle in which Redwood Falls
was again victorius by score of
81 to 10. Saturday mornings game
with Winthrop brought out the real
fight in Redwood's quint. Even Red
woods rooters were wary of Win
throp's long shots, so the score of 81
to II in Redwood's favor was well
coined heartily. In the championship
game, Redwood Falls again triumph
ed over New Ulm, their ancient riv-
ais, with a score of 25 to 10 to win
the District Championship. This
game was a hard-fought battle, and
the Redwood team and rooters all
showed their good craftsmanship
throughout it and all the other games
of the tournament.
After the championship game, the
prizes, offered by various New Ulm
business places, and trophies were
awarded by Supt. Andrew of New
Ulm. Redwood Falls received her
just share of prizes. On receiving
the beautiful championship trophy,
Donald Laidlaw made fitting speech
of gratitude to those who made the
tournament possible.
