again." Mr. Brownell said, adding
that Pennsylvania SIS moving def
nitely into the Republican column.
Mr.. Brownell said the reply to Gov

Charge Of Seeking PAC Aid
Partly Right, Mrs. Luce Says

Il afterward told Thomas that
T did not believe the purpose of the
PAC was political education but
that its sole intent was to re-elect
President Roosevelt. l have since
been placed near the top of the list
of those the PAC is out TO get. But
if my head falls in the basket it will
still be better American head
than Sidney Hillman's."
Mrs. Luce said her reference in

tions was based on an article BY
Wendell Willkie in the United

party in 1882 when Mr.. Roosevelt
split with Newton D. Baker and
other league supporters to win the
votes of the Democratic isolation
lists at the Chicago convention.
