Unlike the quadrennial elec-- | tton of 1920, there are nomarked is-- |sues, which naturally complicate the |political and economic situation.

It is a known fact that 'some of the leading contestants for 'national political honors are paying 'thelr own bills because of the short-- age of campaign funds.
