The candidacy of Miss O'Keefe, sponsored by practically a unanimous demand from her home county, has caught the attention of men and women alike throughout the district. Thus far the only argument urged against her is that she is a woman, to which her challenge has been from the start: "I ask no favors because I am a woman and I resent discrimination on that ground." Open to Public Her education, her experience as a public speaker and her business, experience as editor ef the oflicial organ of the Illinois Federation of Women's clubs has given her close contact and a thorough knowledge of public questions. She has a platform which she believes will interest the men and women of this district, and her friends vouch for her marked ability to present good causes ably. The meeting tonight is open to the public and to it will be welcomed not only those who expect to vote in the democratic primaries but all others who are interested in tlie cause of good government.

BLAIR'S RULING ON WILSON FUND STARTS PROTEST

Democrats Charge Partisan Motives in Taxing Contributions to Fund. EXPLANATION PROMISED Exemption of Roosevelt and McKinley Foundations Basis of Row. WASHINGTON, April 2S. Publication of a letter from Internal Revenue Commissioner Blair to Sen. Glass, democrat, Virginia, ruling that contributions to the Woodrow Wilson foundation could not be deducted by tax payers from their taxable Income, brought from revenue officials Friday the statement that a formal explanation would be made as to why different rulings were handed down with respect to the Roosevelt Memorial association and the McKinley Memorial association. In the absence of Mr. Blair, Assistant Commissioner Smith declared that the bureau would make nublio an explanation of Its interpretation of the law holding that contributions to the latter associations might- be deducted from Income However, no formal statement was forthcoming from the bureau Friday. Jj?claring that the ruling of Commissioner Blair was actuated by partisan motives. Sen. Harrison, democrat, Mississippi, introduced a bill placing contributions to the foundations in the tax-free class "along with contributions to the Roosevelt Memorial association and the William McKinley Memorial association." In introducing the bill. Sen. Harrison attacked Commissioner Blair's ruling as "partisan, puerile and picayunish." PLACES BLAME FOR CZAR'S EXECUTION ON MOSCOW SOVIET Result of Three-Year Investi tion Ordered by Kolebak Regime Revealed. By Associated Press. PA BIS, April 2S Responsibility for the murder and burning of former Kmperor Nicholas of Russia and all members of his family is placed by Nicholas Sokolcff on the leaders of the bolshevist government in Moscow. He makes his statement after a three year inquiry officially ordered by the Kolchak government. M. Sokoloff for many years was investigating magistrate under the imperial regime In Russia and !;; generally described as the best living authority on the cirejmstanc-;-surrounding the death ef the Russian imperial family. In support of his accusations. Sokolcff has gathered more than 3,000 page? of testimony and a gruesome collection of photographs, bones and clothes. Among the evidence is a code telegram, represented as an official report of the murders to the Moscow government by tlie soviet officials at Ekaterinburg, where the crime is said to have occurred. It reads: "Inform Sverdloff that the entire family has endured the same? fate as the head. Officially the family will porish during the evacuation." Tlie question of the Moscow Soviets' responsibility for tlie- death of Nicholas and Iiis family was revived this week by M. Tchitcherin's statement at Genoa that responsibility ros-fed with the local soviet and that Moscow did not know of the executions until after they happened because communication between Moscow and Ekaterinburg was cut off through C'.f chn-Slovakia. ThH statement has been the subject of aritated comment ind denial among Russian exiles in Baris arid Sokoloff issued his report with the intention of furnishing final and definite proof that full responsibility not only for the murder of the former emperor but of his wife and four daughters is upon th Moscow government.

Harn- S. New ht for the republican rumi mation for I'nited States senator ! from Indiana. 3at night emphasized the merits of his candidate before au audience which nearly filled the High School auditorium. The speaker did not directly refer to the questions asked him by the Beeridge forces, nor attempt to answer them in any direct manner, but he did "indirectly" include them in his speech. "Much has been said In the present campaign about the amount of money spent in promoting sympathy and support for Sen New," Mr. Bookwalter said, and it was on this I point mat lie turned most of hi? el (forts although he made no attempt to answ er the charge s of Mr. Beve - ridee. Defevuls Xotv's Statu!. .ew, sabl the speaker, "to enter a pact with him on how much money should be spent by them in this election, and to publish in the press each week, a statement of the expenses for tlie preceding week. Sen. New has steadfastly refused to enter this agreement and if he had entede.i the pact he would qualify for an Insanity test. The suggestion offer ed by Mr. Beveridge was nothing more than an attempt to handcuff Sen. Harry S. New, he said, 'there is a stsate and federal statute regulating compaign expense?, and we will live within the law. And he has lived within tie law." "It is not hard to understand why Mr. Beveridge is constantly referring to the money spent in advertising my candidate. Mr. Beveridge does not have to spend any money. He gets plenty of free advertising in the news and editorial ccolumns of the press. Mr. Bookwalter then went on to say that Mr. Beveridge was attemptlnr to ait: nown in l ie mire ana nui ck of personal ambition and di? up the hatchet which had been buried in 10H."
