CHARGE NOT
(Continued from Page

A suggestion that a constitu
tional amendment might be peces-
sary to give, congress oversight of
presidential ' campaigns brought
from Mr. Hays a proposal that the
parties might unite in an effort to
obtain such a change In basic law.
Hays Wants Ktulation.
: Earlier la ttv day MrHa-ys had
'tboped that this commUtee will
recommend the. passage of a bul
regulating primary election ex
penses - in nat'onal, congressional
and senatorial campaigns." He
also, favored, having all primary
elections for federal officer held
on a single day in every state.
Representative Flood estimated
that - $220,004- would be: required
by his Democratic congressional
commUtee to conduct its. efforts
properly, but presented figures to
show that he had received only
$8,700 in subscriptions. He turn-
d the money over to the Demo
cratic national committee, he said
and expected that committee to fi
nance his congressional cam
paigns. . "

Questioning of Mr. Flood
bronsbt out Uiat he had had
printed by the pnblic printer at
Washington.' '130O.OO copies of
speeches bv Democratic con gress-
men. He had pledged his com
mute to pay $5,098.16 for the
printing, he said. The speeches
were being tent out under con.
gressionai frank, thereby elimin
ating postage bills. His committee
he said, would need $20,000 for
its administration expenses. It
pays no rent, as it uses the house
office building at Washington fori
headquarters, he said.
Joseph L. Rhinock. treasurer of
the committee, said he could shed
no light on receipts or expendi
tures. .

Counter Charges Made
Mr. Hays submitted a letter
which he said was from tieorge T.
Carroll, "president or the New
Jersey Association of liquor in
terests and which solicited funi
to carry on Cox propaganda. The
letter said Governor Cox was a
pronounced "wet." At another
point he charged that the Iemo
c rat ft had planned vn ten million
dollar campaign fund.
Questioned concerning this, he
sa'd his information was obtained
from newspaper accounts of th
Democratic national executive
committee meeting1 in Atlantic
City. N. J...AnR.KM. 1919. where
V. D. Jamieson was quoted a
