TlNkHAM ASSAILS
APPROVAL OF PACT
Comment on Italian Agreement
Asks if Roosevelt Is
British Official.

Representative Tinkham, Republi-
can, of Massachusetts, yesterday at
tackled the White Houses approval
OF the Anglo-Italian pact and asking
this question: is President Roosevelt
high commissioner of British man
dated territory, governor of British
crown colony, governor-general of
British dominion or President of the
United States?"
Mr.. Tinkham opposes our approval
Of the treaty because London has
granted in it de iure recognition of
the italian conquest Of Ethiopia and
because the appreciation is a COM
plete reputation of our traditional
foreign policy of non-interference in
European affairs"
But. Mr.. Tinkham added in a
formal statement. we have no foreign
policy anyway, based on history or
intelligence" and the course we are
pursuing now parallels the moves
that led the United States on to the
bloody fields of Europe in 1917"
Mr.. Tinkham is a member of the
House Foreign Affairs Committee and
big-game hunter who has shot wild
beasts in Kenya, not far from the
Ethiopian border.
