1952 Political
Campaigns To Be
Costliest In History
Washington.—One thing appeared
certain today about the national
political races this year: the cam- nation by Eisenhower, vice
paigns will be the costliest and best
financed of any ever staged in the
United States.
.... Total expenses probably will run
well into the millions of dollars,
because (1) the price of campaign
ing, like everything else, has soar
ed, and (2) the campaigns them
selves will be elaborate.
Chairmen of both the Republican
Eisenhower and other Republican
candidates, is to first shape a win
ning plan and organization — and
then figure the costs.
Earlier Summerfield listed plans
for not one but two special cam
paign trains: speeches in all parts
presidential candidate Sen. Richard
Nixon. Sen. Taft (R-Ohio) and oth
er topflight GOP campaigners; spe
cial GOP units to attract labor, ag
riculture and other large voter
groups; and similar costly plans.
Chairman Frank E. McKinney of
the Democratic National Commit
tee outlined similar efforts at Chi
cago recently when he was given
and Democratic National Commit- * ern P or ^ ry _, c ^ ar ®. e ,, 0 ^ tj 16 campaign
tees already have made it clear e ‘ ect .Y - Adlai Stevenson of

Sparkman of Alabama vice-presi

Technically, federal laws fix a
top limit of three million dollars.
upon the spending of a major po- f ley J 5 retainin 6 at least temporan-
litical party. But the laws are full ly fhe present large headquarters
of loopholes.
For example, there is no limit
upon the number of national com
mittees that may support a presi
dential candidate. And each such
committee is entitled to collect and
spend a full three million.
Arthur E. Summerfield. the new
chairman of the Republican Na
tional Committee, parried questions
of reporters here yesterday on how
much Republicans would spend, or
were paying new campaign staff
officials. _
Summerfield explained that Kis
campaign strategy, in behalf of
presidential nominee Dwight D.
and staff of the Democratic Na
tional Committee here.
McKinney said tne Democrats
already have $226,000 available in
their general fund, and another
$130,000 in a special radio-televis
ion fund he hopes to build up to
two million dollars.
