The governor stated one of his main alms in future addresses will be to show Senator Harding is te aponsidle for the alleged “slush fund.” In his speech inst night Cox read @ list of 51 cities in 26 states to which he claimed the republicans had assigned quotas totaling $8,145,.| 000, He read paragraph after para graph from “The Official Bulletin’ which he sald was a confidential publication issued by the office of Fred W. Upham, treasurer of the re- publican national committee ‘These quotations showed that cam paigns are being made in scores of |states and that quotas in addition to those of the 51 cities have been assigned, he said. Senator Harding was brought Into “the evidence” when Cox read what he said was a message from him in| ‘The Official Bulletin,” praising the work of the financial organization. “DANDERINE” thermore all quotas which were finally decided upon, included both national and state campaigna Only one-third of the amount raised in the various states goes to the national committee.” ‘The list of city quotas, it was as- serted, was never published fn the fepublican official bulletin, which ts sued periodically by the treasurer's office, for distribution among repub- Uecan workers generally, and from which Cox quoted in support of his charges. NO EVIDENCE OF “BUYING PRESIDENCY” Upham has mid the total of all financial contributions for the repub- Hean cause this fall will be less than half the gross amount named by Cox, but republican leaders attach more Importance to the charge of “buying the presidency” than to allegations regarding the amount of the fund. Republican leaders contend there Was no evidence in Cox's speech of conspiracy of special interests to “buy the presidency” or “obtain an underhold on the government,” as he alleged.
