DIME LETTERS TO
AID REPUBLICANS
Treasurer Reports Party
is Practically Out of
Debt at Present

Washington, May 16.-(UP).-
Republican National Committee
Treasurer George F. Getz reports
the party practically debt-free and
ready to start presidential cam
paign collecting and spending.
Getz is comforting with Commit
tee Chairman Henry p. Fletcher
on the campaign budget. Among
his cash assets Getz exhibited a
packet of ''send-a-dime" letters. An
anonymous republican is mailing
mimeographed appeals to all who
are tired of the new deal" to mail
Getz dime. One enthusiast sent
quarter.
The appeal urges, the recipient
to seLd a dime to the national COM
mittee and request five friends to
do the same. Unlike the Denver
dime-chain-letter plan, this one is
legal.
Getz told the United Press the
party had about $4,000 in the
bank. There is a holdover deficit Of
$4,000 from the last campaign but
that is covered by pledges. A New
York state money raising cam
paign is expected shortly to pro-
vide $S0,000 more. =
If Fletcher can do as we'll in
some other states he soon will open
the presidential sharpshooting with
an expanded publicity staff whose
first duty will be to prepare daily
and weekly mail news service for
the country newspapers.
Then he will undertake to CO..
ordinate the congressional attack
on new deal efforts as Charles
Nicholson did for the democrats
when Herbert Hoover got into Off
ficulties in 1930-31-32.
