. CAMPAIGN EXPENDITURES J NOW BEING CONSIDERED Washington, May 31.?Opinion as to the ultimate etTeet on the country of the ^ disclosures of expenditures in the presi- t dcntial primary campaigns has not crystallized sufficiently in Washington to justify any prediction concerning the .1 course the political leaders will take in ? dealing with the question. So far there ^ are only surface indications of the sentiment prevailing among senators and (j representatives over the disclosures in c the in vest iirutiiui l?v flm h?ih>I? 1 in it lee engaged ill the effort to ascertain ' how and why so much money was spent in the interest of the various aspirants for nomination as President. ^ It seems to bo clear, however, that ( t lie information obtained lias caused a c marked impression that promises some sort of action in the year future. One < tiling that stands out is the evidence of ^ the conviction of a large number of members of Congress that the presidential preferential primary system has not produced the results its advocates laul j predicted or expected. There is talk I already that the system should he radically reformed, dust how this reform should he accomplished is not put in ^ concrete form bv anv of those whose in terest iii tin' subject has Wen aroused, Imt tlie comments heard here suggest r that agitation is eertniu and that ru- r suits may he expected. No presidential preference primary ' law is on the federal statute hooks, and . so far suggestions that the national Congress should take a hand in an attempt to adjust present unsatisfaetorv conditions have not caused much discussion. General Wood has put forward the idea that all presidential preference " primaries should he held on the same day, hut this has not aroused any particular interest here, probably for the; reason that it is only within the last I day or two that representtntives have y given any definite thought to the ques- I tion of presidential primaries. ci One suggestion advanced in an otT- a hand way is that the states should a adopt a uniform primary law. Senator 1 Itoruh has proposed that expenditures t in presidential primaries should lie limi- i 1 ted to $IO.(HH) by a candidate in one c Minr. 11 is urn 1'iiriy, nowever, in say c wlnil is likely to be tin' sentiment of Congress as to remoslics. t 'l'liat remedies are necessary appears a to l>e in the minds of senators and representatives. Many of them are eon- t vinced that the present system, or multiplieity of systems, is a failure if for no other reason than it compels men of the highest standing ami ability to seek large sums to advance their candidacies or to go heavily into their own private purses to the same end. There is a feel a ing also that a man fitted l>v education, i experience ami character to he president y of the United States should not he j, forced to resort to the undignified procedure ??f attempting to influence the electorate to indorse his ambition to live in the White House.
