The payer was the National Electric Light Association, publicity organization for U. S. power companies. Testifying before the commission, Mrs. Sherman said that from 1924 to 1928 the N. E. L. A. had contributed $80,000 to the General Federation of Women's Clubs. Last week the Federation Directors de cided that hereafter articles written by members must pass a price censorship committee.
