to his contribution charges, and
also declared that 88 men attend

circulated.
Crowd Handles Affair
Senator 'Harding endorses the
plan - (of quotas) and states his
knowledge of the facts, said Gov
ernor Cox. reading from the Re
publican literature "that the or
ganisation is to cover every state
and every county. Then he states
that he knows nothing about it
and that Hays and . I'pham are
running the campaign. I am dis
posed to agree with him. There
are many things being done now
bv the crowd surrounding Sena
tor Harding, of which he is ignor
ant apparently and If rm should
bf come president, many other
things would be done by the crowd
and he would not know anything
more about them than he says he
aoes about the contributions.
Governor Cox read from sever

official bulletins.

His copies, he governor said,
humorously, . were "mysterious
messengers of good tidings that

'Attacking the alleged secry
imposed upon recipients of the
"Bulletin" Governor Cox said that
some Idea ot probable contribu

considered that there are 10.

Th contribution 'question, the
candidate declared, is a matter of
"plain, national honesty and de

millions and millions behind them,

ernor. Governor Cox urged the election
