CANNON SAYS VETS
LOST At HOUSTON
Wanted Fight on Eighteenth
Amendment, but Failed and

RICHMOND, Va, October 30
Bishop James Cannon jr, of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church. South brought
his fight against Gov Alfred z. Smith
to the capital city of Virginia last night,
denouncing him for his affiliation with
Tanlmany Hall and for his views on
prohibition.
Bishop Cannon declared that Tam
many Hall was an organization without
principle, charging at the same time
that Tammany was in control of the
Democratic national convention at
Houston. Gov. Smiths telegram to the
convention, read just before adjourn
ment, he characterized as a typical
Tammany trick.
Recalls Three Conventions.
Tammany Hall was at the San Fran
cisco and New York conventions with
wet plankS, the bishop said, while he
was fighting to prevent prohibition from
becoming party issue. Tammany also
was at Houston with a wet plank. but
withdrew the planks when Southern
leaders made it known that they would
fight the issue on the floor of the con-
vention. he added.
Tammany yielded, he said, because
IL ulull WduI any uBuG on JIe I1OOT
of the convention. Bishop Cannon said
that the plank drafted by Senator Car
ter Glass at Houston saved the Demo-
cratic party from the disgrace of op-
position to the eighteenth amendment
and that he thanked him for it, though
he doubted If the sidewalks of New
York had the same feeling of thank
fulneSs.
Asserts Smith BOIted.
He then declared that Gov Smith
bolted the platform on prohibition and
also on immigration. Tammany. he
continued, wanted to put Southern
Europe on the sidewalks of New York
because it could control the vote and
continue its power.
Calling attention to statement by
Senator Glass that prohibition was not
an issue in the campaign, Bishop Cam
non expressed the opinion that it was
the principal issue. How Senator Glass
and JoSephu Daniels of North Carolina
can continue to say that prohibition Is
not an issue. he said, was more than he
could understand.

grounds.
Mr.. Hoover, he asserted, has an

mind. while Gov. Smith has Tammany
background and Tammany mind.
"Tammany," he declared, is IAN oil
garchy, foreign in its nature to Amer
lean ideals as exemplified in Hoover"
The Kansas editor spoke of prohibition
as an economic measure designed to
conserve the economic resources of the
Nation even at the surrender of little
personal freedom.
"Tammany has paid to this noble ex-
pertinent" Mr.. White said, "the tribute
Of horse laugh"

Senator Borah urges the women of
this Nation to use their suffrage to de-
feat Gov. Smith to retain inviolate the

IMMIGRATION VIEW
OF SMITH DISPUTED
Correspondence of Secretary
Davis and Chairman Ras-
kob Made Public.
BY the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, october 3O.-Western
Headquarters of the Republican national
committee here yesterday made public a
correspondence between James j. Davis
Secretary of Labor, and John K. Ras-
kob, chairman of the Democratic ma
tional committee, relative to Gov
Smiths stand on immigration. Permis-
sion for release of the correspondence
was given by Secretary Davis as he
passed through Chicago on his way to
make a speech in Wisconsin.
Mr.. Raskob first objected to a speech
at Attica, Ind, in which the Secretary
said 100000 foreigners were waiting
to come to the shores of America, his
stand being that Americans were inter-
eSted in how many the laws actually
permit to enter and not the number
waiting to enter. Secretary Davis re-
piled that he could not agree and his
figures were obtained from available
statistics.
Attitude on Quota.
A subsequent exchange of letters re-
volved principally about Gov. Smiths
attitude toward the 1890 quota basis
for the immigration law. Quoting from
the Democratic nominees speech of ac-
C6DUdIlC6s CCCicbdly OdN1S OAHU ll6
thought it was fair Ito assume the
governor favors restrictive immigra-
ton law based on the 1910 or 1920
census"
The Democratic chairman to that
replied that the governor in his Ten
nessee speech said, II do not favor any
let-down at all-not in the slightest
degree-in the present restrictive clause
in the United States immigration act"
Secretary Davis then wrote Mr..
Raskob: 1T feel have been fair in
interpreting Gov. Smiths attitude on
the grave question of immigration.
fully believe his speech in New York
in 1928" committing himself as OPP
posed to restrictive immigration, accord
ing to Davis represents his real
attitude on this subject, and that his
statement to the contrary in st. Paul,
Nashville and Louisville, together with
explanations by yourself. Senator Rob-
inson and others, are intended for po-
