Bishop's Dare Next
Move Is Up to Churchman
WASHINGTON, June 21. (TP)
Differences between Bishop James
Cannon, Jr.. and Representative
Tinkham continued today to com
mand Interest In Washington.
A movo by tho churchman In re
sponse to a public statement issued
by the legislator attacking him was
being awaited.
Tinkham. a Republican oppo
nent to prohibition from Massa
chusetts, recently made charges
against the Southern Methodist dry
leader in the house. Cannon
called him a "blustering cowardly
congressman" for doing so under
tho cloak of congressional immu
nity and dared him repeat the as
sertions off the floor. Statements
in the senate and house are Im-
! munc from prosecution for libel,
l The text of Tink ham's answer
i Issued for publication today was:
) "Lest Bishop Cannon shall
! delude any one Into thinking
the charges which I made
against hint In tho house of
representatives wore unfound
ed and meeting his challenge
that I divest myself of my
congressional Immunity, I de
sire to re-state over iny
signature the charges 1 made
in tho house of representatives
that he is a shameless violator
of the federal corrupt prac
tices act. a criminal statute;
that he received $G3.300, most
ly In cash, from a New York
capitalist, Mr. Jameson, dur
ing tho 1028 elections and Ille
gally concealed the receipt of
all ibis money until February
J5, and has not yet ac
counted for $48,300 of this
amount, refusing to do so
before tho scnato lobby In
vestigating committee before ;
which he appeared voluntarily
and where he was under oath
and could have beon cross
examined. (Signed )
"George iloldcn Tinkham."
Cannon last week announced he
intended to talte action for libel,
bolh civil and criminal, against
newspapers printing editorials, car
loons, and news dispatches which
he considered a defamation of
himself.
He Indicated he had retained
counsel to study tho possibility of
bringing such action. Whether he
would do so as a result of Tink
ham's latest assertions was a sub
ject of speculation at tho capitol
today.
