Fight Centers Around Charges OF
Contributions.


~ tEs Associated Press.
PORTLAND. Me. September TO-
Contributions by the wealthy to the
Maine Republican campaign fund
brought new issue today to Maine S
weather vane" election Monday.
A Senate Campaign Committee re-
port that some of the richest families
in the East, including the Du Points
Morgans and Rockefellers, had given
the Republicans more than $4,000
brought quick comment from chiefs Of
both major parties.
Daniel p. Field. Republican national
committeeman, remarked that many
OF the same people who contributed to
the Democratic party four years age
are now contributing to the Republi-
cans because they believe the Nation
doomed to destruction under the pres
ert leadership.
Some live and vote in Maine, like
the Archbolds: some have Summer
homes. like the Rockefellers."
Democratic Gov. Louis J. Brann
United States Senate candidate, who
read the Senate report at a Fairfield
rally simultaneously with its release
BY, the Democratic National Commit
tee in New York, declared:
Americas three wealthiest fami-
lies, the Du Points. Morgans and
Rockefellers, are attempting to die
tate the policies Of Maine and the
Nation"
Gov. Branns opponent, United
States Senator Wallace H. White. ir.
said as he knew nothing ofIicially OF

Kansan as saying he would "rededi-
cate the State to the g. O. p"
It appears to me that the Repub-
lican leadership is really dedicatine

bernatorial nominee, tersely remarked
that Maine was not for sale"
