rupt practices act, is demanded by
Representative T1nkham, Republican,

ney General Mitchell.

public yesterday thai the board had
violated the act by failing to make
report Of its expenditures in the 1928
presidential campaign to the clerk OF
the House Of Representatives.
'I desire to bring to your attention,
Tinkham's letter read, ''for investiga-
ton by your department and for prose-
cution under the criminal statute
known as the Federal corrupt practices
act of 1925. the Board OF Temperance,
Prohibition and Public Mora-s OF the
Methodist Episcopal Church OF which
Clarence True wilson is said to be gen
eral secretary, and Deets Pickett Is
said to be research secretary"
The letter asserted literature wnicn
'must have cost large sums Of money
had been distributed during the 1928
campaign to influence the election OF
a President and other political officers,
and also charged Wilson Travelled ex-
tensively making political addresses.
Tinkham added that he had reason
TO believe that money was otherwise
expended In the campaign for political
purposes, and said the board has hled
no statement Of its expenditures as re-
quired by the Federal corrupt practices
act.
This ecclesiastic-p political organiza-
ton" the letter continued. "haS vio-
lated the spirit of the American Con-
stitution, which proclaims the principle
OF the separation of the church and
the state, neither one controlling or
interfering with the other. and 1t has
violated the Federal corrupt practices
act, q criminal law, the purpose of
which Is to inform the American peo-
pie Of the identity Of those who would
attempt to control the American Gov
eminent and the character and extent
Of their receipts and expenditures"

'sWet" Congress
Closes Sessions
At Copenhagen
By the Associated Press.

COPENHAGEN. July 1.-The Anti
Prohibition Congress closed ycster-
day with banquet, at which six
brands of champagne were served on
an otherwise ample wine list.
The banquet created an unfavor-
asae impression in Danish public
ouinion. One prominent writer de.
dared: "Too large a percentage OF
these anti-prol1ibitionists are MADE
IN from the ranks of those making
and selling spirits. and I am afraid
they are no good as propagandists
to the noble cause of moderation.
Such blatantly vulgar display OF wine
and spirits at this banquet brings
srist to the mill of those advocating
auack methods of prohibition"
While the Anti-Prohibition Con-
gress was in session Danish prohi-
bitionists held little congress in
Copenhagen to celebrate the flftteth
anniversary of their movement.
