To FIGHT
SMITH
Claims Committee Without
Power to Question Fund;
Quotes Chairman of Body

Bishop James Cannon, jr., of
the Methodist Episcopal Church
South, in Virginia, today unotfi-
clally explained what became of
the $43,300 of the $65,300 E. c.
Jameson, New Yorker, gave him
to campaign against Alfred e.
Smith in 1928.
In a statement questioning the
propriety of the Senate Lobby
Investigating Committee to in.
quire into the political expendi
lures of his fight against Smith
while the purpose of the commit
tee. Cannon said, is to probe ex.
penditures made to influence leg
islation.
Gave TO Campaign
He declared he alIoCated
the S4S,30O for the use of the Vir-
ginia Anti-Smith Democrats for
regular State campaign purposes,
speaking, canvaSsing and organi2-
ingly thoroughly, the 100 counties
and 90 cities of the common
wealth to insure the defeat of the
wet candidate.
He said $4,000 of Jamesou's
contribution was given the head
quarters committee of the Anti
Smith Dem ocrats operating
throughout the South.
Concerning the committees all
thority to inquire into political
expenditures, Cannon quoted It's
chairman, Senator Caraway OD
of Arkansas, as telling Represen-
tative Tinkham (RO of Massa-
chusetts, that the committee was
not empowered to make such an
investigation.
Returns Not Required
The bishop also said he did not
report the expenditure Of the
$46,300 because State POLITICAL or
CARNATIONS, as a rule, he claimed,
do not file returns to the clerk
of the House.
He learned this, he said, by
personal investigation of the
clerks reports. Some did make
reports upon the request of Sena-
tor Steiwer CR) of Oregon, In
1928. but asserted no such request
was made of him.
The prelate appears before the
