Tinkhom Charges
Alliance With Canada
BY the Associated Press.

BY the ASSoClaled PreSS-
Representative Tinkham. Reput-
lican, Of Massachusetts, said yester-
day that the Canadian American
Defense Board set up by President
Roosevelt and Prime Minister Mac
kenzie King represented an alliance
which, under the Constitution. must
be submitted to the Senate for rati-
fication.
IF this commitment is not sub
mitted to the Senate in the form of
a treaty for ratification and stands
unchallenged," he added in a for
NAL statement, President Roosevelt
has as much dictatorial power in
the United States in relation to
peace and war as Hitler and Mus
solini have in Europe If the "alli-
ance" were allowed to stand without
being submitted to the Senate
Representative Tinkham continued,
the lives of the American people
would be committed to war by one
man, the President" and the United.
States would be under the heel of a
brazen dictator"
The Massachusetts, Republican. a
member of the House Foreign At
fairs Committee, said the negotia-
tons for creation of the Defense
Board had been secret and added
that the commitment to a joint de-
fensive alliance" nullifed the DOW
er OF the Congress TO declare war.

Driver Is Identified
Incorrectly in Crash

In traffic accident story Mon
day The Star inadvertently and in
correctly identified Charles Fowler
26, of 310 Tulip avenue, Takoma
Park, Md, as the driver of the
automobile in which Raymond L.
Murphy, Is, of 1908 Maple street
NV. was killed when the machine
struck telephone pole and over
turned on Riggs road NE. Sunday.
Mr.. Fowler was a passenger in the
car, not the driver. 1t was the
driver. Earl c. Moore, 81, of 222
Concord avenue NV, and not Mr.
Fowler, who was held at the 18th
precinct police station in connec-
ton with the accident.
The Star regrets the error and is
glad to make this correction. Mr..
Fowler received severe head cuts
and body bruises in the crash. He
was treated at Walter Reed Hos
pital and later taken to the home OF
his aunt, Mrs. Lille May Burgess, on
Riggs road, near Hyattsville, Md.

Administration leaders believe

Walsh and Maloney substitutes would

thorized National Guard of Isl 900
would give the Nation an Army OF

gency..
Meanwhile, the Railway Labor Ex-
ecutives' Association said in letter
to Senator johnson, Democrat, OF
Colorado it regarded peacetime con-
scription las serious menace to
democracy" and added that there
has been no demonstration that the
voluntary method will not furnish
the necessary man power.
Adoption of CONSUMPTION in peace
time will fasten an odious military
system upon the American people
for generations. 1t will be a serious
menace to civil and economic liberty
and tend to completely destroy real
American democracy.
There should be no discrimination
as between man power and big in
dustry, and equality of treatment

mander of the District National

obey orders. Nothing of this kind is
tolerated. The letter mentioned
alleged insolence to commits
stoned officers, not commissioned

The general issued a statement
denying any lack of discipline. As
for the charge, made by the soldier
in what was presented as letter to
his mother, that Battery A of the
260th Coast Artillery, based at Rich
vile, N. Y, had gone on Shutdown
strike, Gen. Cox said:
IT was in very close touch with
that section throughout the maneu.
vers. and never saw or heard OF any
such action"
Gen. Cox also denied the state
ment IN the letter that three
fourths of the Guardsmen in the
260th camp had ptomaine poisoning

CONSUMPTION
Continued From First Page)

empt the Vice President OF the
United States and the "oflcers" OF
the legislative, executive and jul
dical branches of the Government.
Senator Connally told the Senate
last night the term "of1cers' might
be construed to exempt Govern
ment employees holding minor posi-
tions. He offered an amendment
that would limit the exemption in
the executive departments to those
officers whose appointments are
confirmed by the Senate.
In this form the amendment was
agreed to last night, but shortly
before the Senate recessed Senator
Danaher, Republican, of Connecti-
cut had it reconsidered for further
study today.
Earlier yesterday opposing fac
tons in the Senate had agreed to
place a limit of 100000 on the
number of men under training at
any one time and rejected an effort
to draft only those between 81 and
IS. The latter motion failed, SO to
10, which means that the bill still
makes all those between 81 and 81
subject to one year of service.
Late in the afternoon the Senate
adopted, SO to 81. a provision by
Senator Wagner, Democrat, of New
York to prevent discrimination
against colored men in the devel-
opment of the aviation service
Several Southern Senators spoke
against the amendment.
1t also adopted an amendment by
Senator Quincy, Republican, OF
South Dakota, striking out pro-
vision authorizing the National La
Dor Relations Board to institute
court proceedings to force the re-
employment of a conscript who had
completed the years training speci-
fled in the bill.
1t provided for civil court trials
of draft dodgers" instead of hear
ings before military tribunals and
voted to prohibit any person con-
neeted with the military establish
ment from becoming a member OF
local draft board.
Without audible objections the
chamber wrote into the measure an
amendment by Senator Barley te
authorize the appropriation oil
funds to carry out the terms OF the
bill, thus clearing the way fol
quick congressional action to pro-
vide the money needed.
Senator Wheeler, Democrat, OF
Montana told the Senate that Con-
gress had been criticized for moi
acting swiftly on CONSUMPTION leg
islation and that Wendell Willkie
Republican presidential nominee
had issued a statement on the sub
ject. He added:
Mr.. Willkie knows as much about
this bill as a 10-year old child. be-
cause he doesn't know a thing about
it,

Army Recruiting Fails
To Show Weekly Coin

for the first time since May, to set
a new successive weekly record for
peacetime enlistments, but officers

planned, there was a large number
of vacancies for Negroes, which al
ways are rapidly filled. AS a re-
suit, new enlistments exclusive, OF
requirements in the ranks mounted
to 8,605.
Last week, with the Negro vacan-
cies closed, enlistments dropped back
to 8,449

Army estimated its total enlisted
strength at $50 900. another peace
time record.

Early Accord Seen
On Unification OF
Churches in Japan
Denominations Discuss
Elimination of All
Foreign Influence
BY the Associated Press.

TOXIC, Aug. 27.-Japsnese rep
nations are discussing the elimina-
ton of all foreign influence from
their administration and the unfit
cation of all sects in japanese
central church to conform to ia
pans new nationalistic and totali-
I tartan ideals.
Domei. japanese news agency
said today an agreement was ex-
pected neXt week.
Foreign clergymen and officials
expressed belief a growing cam
paign is under way to eliminate ar
| foreign financial aid and direction
from all Christian religious insu-
tutions in Japan. even including
hospitals and schools.
There are some 00,000 japanese
Christians. Until recent years direc-
/ ton of the Christian movement has
been largely in the hands of several
| hundred foreign missionaries, in
GLIDING a large group from the
United States.
Methodist Believed Next.
The movement to eliminate for
eign influence already has affected
the Salvation Army and missions of
the American Episcopal Church and
the Church OF England. Many
authoritative clergymen believe
Methodists may next feel the pres
| sure.
japanese Bishops of Nippon Sci
kokai Japan Holy Universal
church, recently voted that hence
forth no foreigners will be permitted
to hold a diocese of the church and
that future foreign monetary con-
tributors will be rejected. Seikokai
combines the American Episcopal
and the Church of England missions
The Japanese bishops decision
affects three American and four
British bishops, who directed the
widely known St. Luke's Hospital
Rikkyo (St. Paul'S University, St
Margaret's Girls Schools and numer-
GUS Toxic churches.
U. s. Bishop Returning.
Bishop Charles S. Reifsnider, Sc
nior American Episcopal bishop. is
returning to Toxic from the United
States in the hope of effecting a
| compromise. He had gone to Amer
lea Manning to attend the Bishops
Conference at Kansas City in Oc-
tober.
Seven Salvation Army leaders, re-
ported to be all japanese, were ar
rested on suspicion of espionage, the
War Once announced August g.
Among those arrested was the jap
anese commander in chief. The ar
rests were connected by unofficial
quarters with the detention Of more
than a dozen Britons at the time.
The japanese newspapers report
ed today that reorganization, dis
associating the Salvation Army from
its London headquarters, has been
completed.
