CANNON CHARGES
T|NKHAM EVASION
Words Omitted in Challenge
Reply, Bishop Says, Ask

Bishop James Cannon, jr., in a state
ment yesterday, charged that Repre-
sentative Tinkham, Republican, of
Massachusetts had not said in his signed
statement some of the things the Bay
State member stated in the House un-
der congressional immunity relative to
the churchman's handling of funds con-
tributed for the anti-Smith campaign.
Tinkham recently issued a statement
over his signature after the Methodist
leader had challenged him to repeat
statements he made on the House floor
in connection with the bishops testi-
nony before the Senate lobby commit
tee. In his statement yesterday, Bishop
Cannon said the acceptance of his
that 1t omitted several accusations made
in the House.
Challenged In Detail.
Bishop Cannon challenged Tinkham
to have several copies Of his entire
speech typewriter, signing them per-
Sonally. then sending one to me and
one to each Of several other indicated
persons, thus effectually disclaiming
immunity nni,,I Tor his entire speech as
The text of Bishop Cannon's state
ment read:
"I have read the carefully worded
statement Of 135 words, purporting to
be a paraphrase of the 3,00O-Word
speech Of Congressman Tinkham, made
in the House of Representatives on
June II, which speech 1 called upon
him to give out over his personal sigma
ture, free from congressional immunity.
In his speech of June II, among
other things, Congressman Tinkham
said: The statement of Bishop Can
non that he made no report of such
receipts and expenditures, as none was
required by law" was a falsehood. and
obviously made with the intent of not
accounting for the $48,300 alleged in
his telegram OF February IL, 1929, to
E. G. Jameson, to have been spent in
the State of Virginia Again, Con-
gresham Tinkham in his speech asked,
Whether or not any of the money re-
ceived from e. G. Jameson was used
by him on account Of any personal in
debtednesS?' Again, Congressman Tink-
ham in his speech said, He Bishop

other similar statements contained in
the speech of June II, not only do not
appear, but are not referred to In the
135-word purported paraphraSe of his

speech has already appeared in the
newspapers as congressional privileged
matter, and as some papers might not

FORBIDDEN
TO CONTINUE HOP
Ortiz Rubio Bans All Long.
Distance Flights by
Military Pilots.
By the Associated Press.


MEXICO CITY, June 23.-President
Ortiz Bubio today issued a formal order
forbidding military aviators from en-
gaging in long distance flights.
The President said he had decided
that no more Mexican flyers will be
permitted to risk their lives in perilous
flights having no specific purpose.
The order included Col. Roberto
Fierro, who was forbidden to continue
his flight to South America, Africa and
Europe.
President Ortiz Rubio said that he
had contemplated cancellation of Col
Fierro's flight before its start from New
York, but that inasmuch as all ar
rangements had been completed, he
decided to allow the venturesome flyer
to complete the first stage Of his SEN
sational air voyage.
The President said, however, that he
had come to the conclusion it was
unnecessary for Col. Fierro to continue
his trip. since he merely would be re-
peatinE what already had been done
by aviators of other nations.
The Mexican Chief Executive said
that henceforth the ability ard courage
of the republics pilots will be used IN
more practical manner.
He said that the Gulf and Pacific
Coast Lines should be watched with
more vigilance to prevent smuggling and
Illicit fishing. He also stated that the
flyers would be used to better purpose
in surveying and assisting scientific
expeditions.
Mexico benefited more from the
ability and courage of live flyers, the
President averred, than from the post
humous honors showered upon those
who perished while engaged in haz-
ardous undertakings. Their lives, he
said, are much too precious to lose,
even If Mexico must forego basking
in the glory of their exploits.
