charge that the Methodist board of

Tinkham also launched a bitter

church that location of the head
quarters of the Methodist board

The location of their headquar-

Capitol is neither fortunate nor
strategic except for the purpose OF
maintaining close surveillance upon

said.
Activities of the Methodist board,
Tinkham continued, constitute a
most pernicious lobby, certainly
calling for investigation and expos
ure."
Fight of Long Standing
He charged the board with vio-

campaign expenditures.
To back up his charge Of lobby

Methodist board are personal so

Tinkham'S fight with the Metho-
