TINKHAM ASSAILS
DRY LEAGUE FOR
aid TO VOLSTEAD
Denounces w. B. Wheeler
On Floor as "Legisla-

The Anti-Saloon League was ac-
cused Of Legislative bribery" and
the Department of Justice was crit
icised for not prosecuting It by
Representative Tinkham. Of Massa-
chusetts. in a speech in the House
yesterday.
Mr.. Tinkham assailed the politi-
cal activities of the league and
stated that II had announced its
intention of continuing its illegal
practices" He charged that Repre-
sentative volstead. of Minnesota,
author of the volstead act. lis again
to be the beneficiary of these ilIe-
gal practices" He offered a bill 70
curb the participation of the league
and similar organizations in politi-
cal campaigns.
Charges Inactiou.
The Massachusetts, member said
that more than two months ago he
had called the attention of the De-
partment of Justice to the leagues
alleged violation of the corrupt
practices act and had demanded
prosecution. Nothing had been
done by the department. He de-
clared that the Federal government.
through inaction, was ''condoning
violations of the corrupt practices
act"
After stating that the league had
already announced its intention of
giving its aid to Mr.. Volstead in
his Campaign for reelection, MT
Tinkham said:
ITO all intents and purposes this
is legislative bribery. II we are
going to have prohibition. let us
prohibit this insidious evil more
inimical to the foundations of our
government than the greatest abuse
OF liquor ever was.
Charges Bribery.
what shall be said OF a member
OF the House whose political bills
are paid not by himself but by
others who are seeking legislation
through him. Can Il not fairly be
said in a court Of ethics that he
has been bribed7"

B. Wheeler. spokesman for the
Anti-Saloon League, as "a legisla-
tive corruptionist"
I challenge him to sue me for
