PARTY FINANCIERS
 MAY GET HEADACHES

If the new Hatch bill gets through the House with it's pro- vision limiting campaign contribu- tions to $50GO, the party treasurers will have tough time of it this summer. No accurate tabulation of recent gifts exists; best source of light on past performances is the report of the Lonergan committee covering contributions in the 1886 presidential campaign.
 This shows that the Republi- cans got 205 contributions between S5OOO and S75OO, with the Demo- crats getting 120. Republicans got nine gifts between S75OO and $1O,- 900 and the Democrat got eight; in the S1O,OOO $15,OOO level, the Republicans got 5 and the Demo- crats 25.

BILL IS FREE OF LOOPHOLES

Politicians are taking some com fort from the fact that the bill hasn't passed the House yet. There doesn't seem to be any loophole in the ban on over -$5O00 contribu- tions, though.
 The bill says that any sum over $5000 contributed, expended, fur nished or advanced by one person, directly or indirectly" shall be deemed excessive, and that penal ties shall apply to any person who directly or indirectly contributes" such an excessive sum. Senator Hatch says he thinks this is ample to keep man desirous of giving $25,000 from calling in five trusted employees, handling each one $5000, and letting them contribute.
