WILSDII TO TELL WHOGAVETD CAMPAIGN —- Always Favored Such Publicity and Will Welcome Investi gation, He Says. SEAGIRT, Aug. 30.—Governor Wil son has expressed himself satisfied with the senate resolution calling for an in vestigation of all pre-convention eam *palgn funds, and says that he will wel come an investigation of the fund used in bringing about his nomination at Baltimore. "I am absolutely in favor of publici ty,” he said. "I have always held that position. I have always approved it, and will welcome an investigation of my pre-convention fund as a matter of course." "Do you care to have the nanus of your backers known?" was asked. "Certainly." was the repl.'.. "But, to tell the truth.\i don't know myself, ex cept in a general way. who had charge of my campaign in the various states. I merely kept a general oversight over my campaign fund. Three times we had no fund at all." "Was there any particularly large contribution that you recall?’ "I don't know. Mr. McCombs would know about that." he replied. “All Spent For Publicity." "So far as the public knows, Mr. Mc- Combs was the largest contributor," was suggested. "Yes. Mr. McCombs and 1 were in constant touch regarding the- sources from which funds were to be accepted We had a considerable office force in I New York, and practically all the monej we spent was for publicity, for distributing news through the press. We did not volunteer it. We sent it out whenever it was asked for. We did not ask the newspapers to use it. That, as you know, is extremely costly busi ness. 1 know there were times when Mr. McCombs did not know where the j money was coming from to settle ex- | peases on the next pay day." "Could you make any estimate of the amount of money spent In your pre convention campaign?" was asked. "1 hav. no means of making such an estimate. I never was at the headquar ters of Mi- committee find never saw tilings ; '■.at ■i re actually done.” "You d<dined a contribution from Thomas F. R.' an, did you not?” Wou'd Not Take Ryan’s Money. "I pcr.-unt.ily did not. Mr. McCombs did. But I ought not to say that, be < ause it leaves the impression that Mr. Ryan offered monej. He did not. I declined to see Mr. Ryan, and Mr. Mc- Combs declined to let anybody ask Mr. Ryan for.a contribution.” “So far as you know, there were no contributions that were returned?" he was asked. "So far as I know, none." the gov ernor replied. When it was suggested that the sen ate inquiry might embarrass some of i his opponents, the governor smilingly ' replied that he hoped they had not been "as hard up” as he has been for funds.

Borah was emphatic in his statement that he would not join the new party. Regard ing a statement given out by Taft headquarters in Chicago that he would stump for the president, Borah said: "Such a statement was unauthorized.

MINIMUM WAGE PLANK ADELUSIONANDSNARE, SAYS CHARLES D. HILLES By CHARLES D. HILLES, Chairman of the Republican National Committee. NEW YORK, Aug. 30.—-Have you ever stopped to think where the "mini mum wage" proposition of the Third Term party leads to'.’ Do you know what it means and where it will end? The Third Term platform asserts that "minimum wage commissions should be established * * * to determine the standard which the public ought to sanction as a minimum." To the wage earner who is underpaid that sounds peculiarly attractive. So does the promise of health to the sick man But it is an old adage that “all is not gold that glitters." and this applies as often to economic remedies as to patent med icines. The proposition in its simplest terms is that the government should fix i fate of wages less than which no employer would be permitted to pay. Governments are controlled by political parties, so that i( also means that a political party would fix the lowest wage which any employer could pay. Now, what would that lowest wage be? That, of course, would have to de pend on the fiolitical party. The Re publican part}, if it continued to hold its national convention first, would fix the minimum wage for an eight-hour day of an able-bodied man, for instance, at $3. Then the Democratic party would hold its convention. It would be ob vious that to hold its own it must make the rate equally high. But the Demo cratic party, like other parties, is al ways anxious to do more in its plat form than hold its own. It wants to win supporters from the other parties. To do this it would naturally fix the minimum wage for which it stood at $3.50 a day. Then would come an in dependent party and It would raise the minimum to $4 a day. for unskilled labor, other "minimums" in proportion. Then would come the Socialist party, determined to make tiie strongest bid for the support of labor. Its minimum would probably be $5, and the labor party, determined not to be outdone, would make it $6. "Would Labor Got It?” Os course, that would be ail well and proper so far as the rate of wages was concerned, and no one would object to labor receiving such reward, but would it receive il? Os course, if unskilled labor cost st> for an eight-hour day, skilled labor would have to be paid in proportion if men were to continue to take tile trouble to become skilled la borers. The skillful brickmason who now receives three times the rate paid to the unskilled laborer would demand that his wage be three times greater, or SIS a day. Even suppose, for sake of argument, that these rates of wages well' fixed at one election, where would it end? At the next election each po litical party would seek to outbid the other until the “minimum” would be come a maximum little dreamed of to day. As 1 have said, no friend of labor could object to its generous compensa tion, bul would labor receive lhe wages promised by the party platform? Would not the effect be so as to in crease the cost of building, of manu facturing. of production of every sort, I hat no one could afford to buy the Be Healthy YOU can.

Lady Attendant, PUMPS FOR EVERY SERVICE DUNN MACHINERY COMPANY, Atlanta products, so that building and manu facturing! w'ould cease? For if such rates of wages could be established for the worker in the factory, in construc tion work and in building, is it possible that any labor could be induced to w ork on the farm? Even now, when wages in the city are good, labor on the faj-m is so scarce that crops go to waste and the farmers are constantly complaining —and the complaint of the present high cost of living is universal. But suppose the employer were for bidden to add the increased cost of la bor to the price of his product, would that not remedy the defect? If that were done, the employer would imme diately demand, and with justice, that the government fix the price of the nya terial he was compelled to buy. With a minimum wage and a maximum price prescribed by law the employer’s only protection against extortion by land lords and owners of all classes of ma terial would be maximum prices fixed by law Os course, that is the golden age dreamed of by the Socialist, and to that alone does the third party plat form lead; but I venture to assert that never will a political party, or a gov ernment controlled by political parties, prove able to fix the rates of wagew in a manner either Just or satisfactory to labor. Labor unions can do much to effect just wages, but they can do It because they are not political organizations; because they are almost free from po litical influences, and because they fix their attention on the needs and rights each of a. particular trade, or at moat a number of affiliated trades. The gov ernment can do much to assist; can break up combinations which put inor dinate power as employers into the hands of a few men: can impose a tar iff which will protect the American workman from unfair competition from abroad. can compel the use of safety appliances, and ewn enforce the ob servance of the eight-hour law on al! the work which It controls. But the fixing of wage scales must be left to be worked out by the working men through bls union and the employer. I hat Is the point to which no govern ment can go and give satisfaction. Let no man who is attracted by the alluring promise of the Third Term party take my word for it. Like President faft, I am perfectly content to trust the decision to the intelligence of th> American workmen—only I urge that he shall think it out for himself and not. let any persuasive politician do his thinking for him.
