BISHOP
Cannon
DEFIANT
Declares Senate Without
Power To Question Him
On Campaign Work.
MAY FACE CONTEMPT
Militant Churchman And
Senator Walsh Engage
In Tiff. :.

WASHINGTON, June 3. W.P.,-
Claiming he was being prosecuted,
Bishop James Cannon, Jr., of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, South,
today flatly declined to answer
questions of the Senate lobby COM
mittee of his anti-Smith activities in
the 1929 presidential campaign.
Even after being warned by the
committee that he must "take the
consequences OF his act,' Canaan as
serted he must decline to answer,
thereby opening the issue of pos
sible contempt proceedings similar
TO those which resulted in Harry +.
Sinclair, the oil magnate, going to
Jail.
For more than an hour, Senator
Thomas j. Walsh, Democrat, Mon
tana, acting chairman, laid the
ground work for possible contempt
proceedings. He developed that Can
non had used 1908 of the funds of
the Methodist Board of Prohibition
and Social Service, of which he was
chairman for the purpose of calling
the Asheville, n. c., conference in
1928, to plan the campaign in the
south against the Democratic pres
idential nominee, Alfred f. Smith,
of New York.
Walsh did this when Cannon
contended his anti-Smith activities
were purely personal, but when
Walsh showed the use of $303 of
the boards funds and again pressed
his question as TO whether Cannon
was influential in calling the Ash
Vile conference, the bishop said:
"Oh, YOU get around it that way.
Well, can't see why you single
out this group TO inquire into its
activities and mine. What did in
the 1928 campaign is known to the
world.
IL cannot look upon this investi-
cation in any way except that you
are trying TO prosecute me-"
Walsh, who Is Catholic, replied
that 81 cannot escape the implica-
tion in your statement against me,
but have my duty to do as SEN
ator and ! am doing it,"
"Oh, I don't say you personally
are prosecuting me, senator Walsh,
Cannon protested II respect you
very highly. but the whole atmos-
pherc m this issue has been such
that 30 leads me TO believe it is per-
scrufiou"
Cannon declined 10 comment ON
the situation after the committee
