Of Cannon CASE
Quashing Of Indictment
Charging Failure to Report
1923 Election Money Hit.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Arguments were concluded today in
the United States Supreme Court on
the appeal Of the Government from the
action of the District Supreme Court
in dismissing an indictment brought
against Bishop James Cannon, jr., for
alleged failure to report contributions
received during the political campaign
of 1928.
The highest court Is confronted with
technical questions raised by Cannon's
counsel as to where the Government
should have appealed when the District
Supreme Court dismissed the indictment
against Cannon and his secretary, Miss
Ada l.. Burroughs. The trial court
quashed the indictment as defective,
holding among other faults it charged
contributions made for" Bishop Cam
mons committee instead of charging
contributions ito" it.
Thomas D. Thacher, solicitor gen.
eral, in yesterdays proceedings insisted
the Government had properly taken the
case to the District Court Of Appeals
to have it review the acton of the trial
court in quashing the Indictment He
insisted the Court of Appeals had juris-
diction under laws applying to the Dis
trict to pass on both the sufficiency of
the indictment and the construction
which the trial court had placed on
the corrupt practices act.
Levi H. David, counsel for Cannon,
took the contrary view, insisting the
Government should have appealed to
the United States Supreme Court direct
from the trial court He asserted that
1nasmuch as it had not done 50 within
the time allowed by law the indictment
was dead Chief Justice Hughes and
other members of the court several
times took issue with David.
Upon the decision where the appeal
should have been taken may depend
whether Bishop Cannon must stand
trial under the criminal practices act.
