TINKHAM IN CHARGE OF CORRUPTION Representative Says Foes of Saloon Buy Power. ATTACK IS BITTER Corrupt Practices Bill Submitted in House. Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. WASHINGTON',, June 23 Submission by Representative Tinkfiam of Massachusetts of anew corrput practices bill, which would prevent prohibition and antiprohibition organizations from spending money in congressional campaigns, provoked in the House, renewed attacks on the Anti-Saloon League’s financial part In elections and its pressure for dry legislation. Mr. Tinkham criticised the Department of Justice for not prosecuting the league on evidence he had presented the House and the Attorney General, accusing that body of violating the existing corrupt practices act. He argued passage of his measure would halt plans, of which he was ‘'reliably informed,” to repeat the ‘‘offenses'’ in the forthcoming elections by contributing huge sums to campaign funds of members friendly to prohibition. Representative Volstead was singled out as an example, the Massachusetts member who asserted he had evidence eleven state subsidiaries of the AntiEaloon League were preparing to support him with their “influence and their money.” OBJECTION PASSED ON MOUSE RULES. So bitter was Mr. Tinkham's attack on dry members of Congress that objection was voiced on the ground he was violating House rules. The most tense moment of a strenuous afternoon came as the Anti-Saloon League’s consistent foe recalled denunciation of Senator Newberry’s campaign funds and Gifford Pinchot's expenditures. These expenses, he said, were made by the candidates themselves, leaving them “under no obligation to any one and free to exercise thir power in accordance with the public Interest.” “But what shall be said of a member of the House of Representatives whose political bills are paid, not by himself, but by others who are seeking legislation through him,” Mr. Tinkham asked. “Can it not fairly be said in a court of ethics that he has been bribed?" Representative Craniton, Michigan, in answering Mr. Tinkham. raised strenuous objection to indorsement of light wine and beer legislation announced in Chester, Pa., bv Secretary Weeks. He said objection to prohibition by Mr. Weeks and other anti-prohibitionists would do more to undermine the Constitution than the corrupt practice of which the Massachusetts member complained. Indictment of Prohibition Commissioner Haynes' policy in permitting continued sale of liquor on Government passenger liners was handed down by Representative Galllvnn of Massachusetts as inconsistent and hypocritical. ! GALMVAN CHALLENGES. Mr. Galiivan created a sensation when he challenged the assertion of Representative Mondell, Republican floor leader, that attacks on the “wet-sea” policy of the shipping board were made to embarrass the ship subsidy bill. He announced himself as one of the few Democrats who favored the subsidy, but added that he had taken a solemn oath not to vote for large appropriations for such thing as relief to ship owners until the bonus bill, for the relief of the war veterans, had pa<sed. Mr. Tinkham's bill is drastic. It would prohibit any individual, corporation or organization which seeks, advocates or proposes enactment or repeal of legislation from promising, loaning or spending any money in a congressional campaign. Mr. Tinkham’s previous charges against the league were on the ground it had failed to file anywhere near a complete list of expenditures in congressional elections. He sent his evidence to the Department of .Justice, he told the House. Congress was too firmly in the power of the organization to vote an investigation of it. The Massachusetts representative reproduced statements which he said showed clearly that the league was preparing on an immense scale to repeal the “offenses” in the approaching elections. One of the statements told of a $2,000.000 fund “to keep dry Senators and Rep-

Elaborating on his former charges, Mr. Tinkham produced statements of more expenses not filed by Wayne B. Wheeler under the corrupt practices act, alleged Mr. Wheeler had "committed perjury” and characterized him as “a legislative corruptionist,” “that the Eighteenth Amendment was bought and paid for,” he added, “there can be no doubt.” High Tension Electric Wire Kills Fisherman BATLISS, 111., June 23.—Fishing season has claimed death to one nimrod *iere.

WEARS CLOTHES; LOSES HER JOB Actress Criticised Because Wig Partly Protected Nakedness. LONDON, England, June 23.—Willette Kershaw, an Anferican actress, has withdrawn from the leading part In “Decameron Nights*’’ playing at Drury Lane Theater, rather than accede to insistent criticisms that she did not play her part with sufficient nudity. Margaret Bannerman, a Canadian, has assumed the role of Perdita, revealing enough gleaming white skin in the big scene, where unclad she is cast on some rocks by the sea, to satisfy the baldestheaded of the first row habitues. “I wish Miss Bannerman all success, but I could not sacrifice modesty to ‘art,’ no matter'who asked me,” said Willette, explaining why she would not abandon her voluminous golden wig, whose long strands she wrapped about her in Lady Godivaiike simplicity. “The impression of modesty, which is the principal virtue of the part, cannot be conveyed to the spectators by an abandoned display of nudity.” LARGE GRANARY HOUSES STILLS Corn, Too Precious as Hog Feed, ‘Flowed’ Into Kegs.
