[5) SOCIETY SOCIETY. STAR, WASHINGTON, D. ( CONGRESS SPEAKING FOR PAY Accepting Fees From Anti- Saloon League Causes Is- sue to Become Acute. By the Consolidated Press. A new code of ethics for members of Congress m: sult from the reve- lations that several of the most promi- nent “dry” champions in the House and Senate have been on the pay roll of the Anti-Saloon League as publ speakers. Senator James Reed of Missouri, Democrat, who has been conducting the cross-examination of witnesses in the Pennsylvania primary contest, finally steered the inquiry to the point he has for months heen seeking to es- tablish, namely, that “dry” organ tions are engaged in a system of elec- tioneering which to hi 1ind is as reprehensible as the urging of voters by another group or organization which pays for its worker: Having developed the fact that the Pennsylvania campaign cost more than $2,000,000 and that votes were obtained through pald watchers, the Missouri Senator now turns the spot- light on other influences in the same election. namely, the wet and dry side. He knew that the “drys” would open up on the part played by the “wets” and no doubt there will be ex- posures showing what the “‘wet” or- ganizations did to help Representative Vare. Members of Congress Hired. But_the striking thing which Sen ator Reed has uncovered and on THE EVENING TWO BRIDES OF WEDNESDAY best exhibition of result-getting ad vertising in any form or in a varietv of forms as carried on by any one in dividual hoard member.
