Supporters of the straight-to-the-
mark school predict a walk-away for
Mr.. Tilson. They point with pride to
the absence of frills and doo-dads in
the style accredited to the Republican
floor leader, and, arguing from the
premise that straight line is the
shortest distance between two points,
they can see no reason why the eff
Gent delivery of their champion should
not prove superior to the offerings of
the gentleman from Texas.
Style Important in Texas.
Mr.. Tilson has kept his own counsel
and has made no pre-contest predic-
tions. Reports of early morning prac-
tice sessions with his secretary could
not be confirmed.

TRIAL OF Cannon
IS HELD PROBABLE
Fitzhugh, Foe of Bishop, Says
Conference Did Not Vote
AcquittaI.
BY the Associated Press.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, May 24.-The pos
sibility of further efforts to require a
church trial of Bishop James Cannon,
jr., head of the Board of Temperance
and Social Service of the Methodist
Episcopal Church South, was suggested
here today by G. T. Fitzhugh one of the
leaders of fight against the bishop at
the recent church conference in Dallas,
Tex.
Fitzhugh. a prominent Memphis at
torney and Methodist layman, said in a
written statement that Bishop Cannon
stock gambling by the conference COM
mittee on episcopacy. This committee,
Fitzhugh said, was not empowered to
acQuit or convict, but only to recommend
action by church body.
Fitzhugh Claims Confession.
Under church rules, Fitzhugh asserted,
Bishop Cannon's accusers may at any
time seek hearing of their charges be-
elders could suspend the bishop until
the next conference. At the Dallas
meeting the committee on epiScopacy
reported that 1t first decided to bring
Cannon to trial. The bishop then ex-
pressed regret in a letter to the COM
mittee, which informed the conference
that a trial was not recommended.
Fitzhugh charged that Bishop Cam
mons letter to the committee consti-
tuted confession of all the charges.
The Memphis attorney also said that the
committee, by resembling its decision to
bring the bishop to trial, had ignored
"indisputable proof" and had subjected
the church to shame and humiliation"
Should there be renewed effort by
the bishops opponents, Fitzhugh said,
the procedure would be to place the
charges before "any three travelling eld-
ers." The trio, he said, could, if they
thought wise, require any other bishop
to convene an investigating body Of II
elders.
Has Power to Suspend.
This body, said the statement could
suspend the defendant until the next
quadrennial conference, which in turn
could bring about final trial.
The statement recounted the whole
procedure at Dallas, and said that
Bishop Cannon's accusers had presented
full proof of all their charges that the
bishop knowingly gambled in stocks
through what FitZhugh called "notori-
Gus bucketshops."
BY passing Cannon's character as a
bishop, and by placing him at the head
OF the Board OF Temperance and Social
Service, the conference and the Episco-
pacy committee, Fitzhugh declared, had
put the church In the false light of an
indefensible. hypocritical position"
