Treasurer Robert Short says donations and loans average about 1 million weekly, with total spending projected at over 25 million for the period and 1 million plus for Sept 1 to election night. The fund pool supports television, radio, and newspaper ads, and the party aims to outpace Nixon in time purchases.
