There are a series of bills which would make it illegal for any ‘‘corporation’’ save a non-profit corporation, formed for that specific pap pose—to. contribute funds to a political campaign, either for or against an issue, or for or against a candidate. Some of these bills, in fact, would make it a felony, punishable by a fine of $5000 or five years in prison, for any ‘‘eorporation”’ to contribute to any campaign.

To add to the confusion, there’s a bill that would require every campaign committee—for or against a measure on the ballot—to impound its campaign funds ‘with the State Corporatiens Commissioner and submit campaign bils to said commissioner. There are still other bills to crack down on local election campaign committees, as well as committees for state wide campaigns, and to require detailed statements of expenditures. ; : And there are bills which would declare it a felony for any public utility to contribute a dollar to defend its business—even though the Legislature passed measures designed to wipe the utility out of existence. Reading these measures, one may well wonder: ‘Is this still free America, or is it Nazi Germany?’’ For the right to have his day in court, or his day before the people, belongs to every American—and to every American business. Capping the climax, one of the solons who objects 'to any ‘‘corporate”’ institution spending money to present its case before the public, has a measure which would permit State, county, city or district administrative agencies to use general tax funds to convince the taxpayers that they should vote new public works and new public debts.
