SPECIAL NOTICE. and Bugle Corps; | pacy Conference Did Not Vote Acquittal. By the Associated Press. MEMPHIS, Tenn., May 24.—The pos- sibility of further efforts to require & church trial of Bishop James Cannon, jr., head of the Board of Temperance and Social Service of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, was suggested here today by G. T. Fitzhugh, one of the leaders of a fight against the bishop at the recent church conference in Dallas, ex. Fitzhugh, a prominent Memphis at- torney and Methodist layman, said in & written statement that Bishop Cannon had not been acquitted of charges of stock gambling by the conference com- mittee on episcopacy. This committee, Fitzhugh said, was not empowered tO" acquit or convict, but only to recommend | action by a church body. Fitzhugh Claims Confession. Under church rules, Fitzhugh asserted, Bishop Cannon's accusers may at any time seek a hearing of their charges be- fore 12 elders. The statement said these elders could suspend the bishop until the next conference. At the Dallas meeting the committee on episcopacy reported that it first decided to bring Cannon to trial. The bishop then ex- pressed regret in a letter to the com- mittee, which informed the conference that a trial was not rcommended. Fitzhugh charged that Bishop Can- non’s letter to the committee consti- tuted a confession of all the charges. The Memphis attorney also said that the committee, by rescinding its decision to bring the bishop to trial, had ignored "lndfxpuuble proof” and had “subjected the church to shame and humiliation.” Should there be a renewed effort by the bishop's opponents, Fitzhugh said, the procedure would be to place the charges before “any three traveling eld- ers.” The trio, he said, could, jf they thought wise, require any other bishop u;d:onvene an investigating body of 12 elders. Has Power to Suspend. said the statement, could defendant until the next ‘This body, d the at Dallas, and said that 0p Cannon’s accusers had presented full proof of all their charges that the | bishop knowingly gambled in stocks through what Fitzhugh called “notori- ous bucketshops.” By passing Cannon’s character as a bishop, and by placing him at the head of the Board of Temperance and Social Service, the conference and the Episco- D committee, Fitzhugh declared, had “put the church in the false light of an indefensible, hypocritical position.” CONFERENCE ENDS SESSION. Victories of Cannon Are Features of 17-Day Meeting. DALLAS, May 24 (#).—The twenty- first quadrennial general conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church South adjourned today after sessions lasting 1715 days. Warren Akin Candler of Atlanta, senior bishop, 72 years old, and bishop for 32 years, presiding at the closing de- votional, reminded delegates that their chief purpose was the salvation of in- dividual souls and other activities should be_secondary. The victories of Bishop James Cannon, jr, of Washington, D. C., opponent of Gov. Alfred E. Smith in the last presi- dential election, who had been criti- cized for his political activities and stock market transactions, were high lights of the conference. Bishop Can- non was cleared of unbecoming political activity, he was exonerated in connec- tion with his securities transactions, and was re-elected chairman of the im- portant Board of Temperance and Social letermined group of laymen, led b; Josephus Daniels of Raleigh, N.

Already hearings on the treaty have run for 10 days or more and it is understood that only three or four more witnesses are to be called, al- though this number may be increased if Senator Johnson or other committee members request additional witnesses. Although President Hoover's an- nouncement that he proposes to call the Senate into session immediately should there be an_adjournment. of Congress before the London Treaty is disposed of has created resentment in some quarters, admittedly his announce- ment has cleared the atmosphere, which was filied. with rumors of possible de- lay and postponement. Tarifft Report Due Tuesday. The tariff bill conference report is due to come up for consideration in the Senate Tuesday, according to Senator Smoot, finance committee chairman. ‘The Republican conference tomorrow will decide whether the London Treaty is to be given the right of way im- mediately after the tariff bill has been acted upon. There also remain to be disposed of two appropriation bills, one the naval appropriations bill and the other the second deficiency blll. In addition, the rivers and harbors bill, carrying authorizations for waterway | development totaling about $120,000,000, i3 to be taken up by the Senate, while there still are some differences over Muscle Shoals legislation to be ironed out between the two houses. Since the London Treaty is to be considered in open executive session and the other measures in legislative ses- sion, it may be possible for them to run along side by side, with part of each day alloted to the treaty and part to legislation, after the tariff has been finally voted upon. So far there has been no indication of prolonged debate | my on the treaty. Indeed, Senate leaders do not believe that more than a week will be required to discuss the treaty in the Senate itself. Several Senators face opposition in the aries this year and more than a third of the entire body comes up for re-election in November. Those ex- pecting contests either in the primary or in the general election are anxious to get back to their States to rebuild po- litical fences. Senator Hiram Johnson, a treaty opponent in the foreign r tions committee, commenting yesterday on the President’s announcement that he would call a special session of the Senate, if necessary, to get action on the treaty, said: “I think sponsors of the treaty are entirely right, from their viewpoint, in rushing the treaty, for if time be given the American people thoroughly to un- derstand it, it will be overwhelmingly repudiated.” Supporters Take Opposite View. Supporters of the treaty, who are greatly in the majority, however, take no such view of the situation. They be- lleve that the treaty will be popular and they see no reacon for delay, par- ticularly in view of the need for get- ting ahead with the naval program laid down by the treaty terms. Party leaders on both sides of the chamber are supporting the treaty. Sen- ator Joseph T. Robinson of Arkansas, Democratic leader, one of the American delegates to the’lfln&oen tm!l(ergce..';s strongly supporting ‘the pact. Senator !I’lnw);l o!p‘;llmnh. ranking Demo- cratic member of both the Senate for- eign relations committee and the Sen- ate naval affairs committee, is giving no comfort to treaty opponents, and is expected to support the treaty when it comes up for vote in committee and in the Senate. Advocates of prompt action on the London treaty are aided by the strong desire among many Senators to wind up their labors here. Many have been on the job since the opening of the spe- cial session last April.

Spouse Is Declared Ineligible for Election by Texas Tribunal. By the Associated Press. A AUSTIN, Tex., May 24 —Mrs. Mifiam A. Ferguson, the only woman who ever served as Governor of Texas, today formally announced her candidacy for the Democratic nomination for Gov- ernor, for the second time seeking an office’ denied her husband by a Texas | Supreme Court ruling. Mrs. Ferguson was elected Governor in 1924 after James E. Ferguson, re- moved from the Governor's chair in 1917 by impeachment, was refused a place on the ballot. Her announcement followed a ruling by the Texas Supreme Court that Fer- guson was ineligible to hold office. The court also declared an amnesty act en- acted by the State Legislature during Mrs, Ferguson's administration and de- signed to restore Ferguson’s political rights was invalid. The bill had been repesled by a subsequent Legislature. Mrs. Ferguson announced she would accept her husband’s platform “with only one changs.” “Instead of promising to veto all liquor legislation as he promised, I want to strengthen cur liquor lews and see if some improvement cannot be made in enforcement,” she said. Would Get Husband’s Aid. “We _prohibitionists have suffered much discouragement recently, and I want to see one honest effort to outlaw the liquor traffic before we give up the struggle.” Mrs, Ferguson was defeated for re- election by Gov. Dan Moody, attorney general during her tenure. She gave notice that in event of her election she would “receive the aid and advice of husband.” “If consulting with one’s husband be treason, then make the most of it,” she said. “It appears that one of the things with this country now is that we do not have enough of the old-fash- foned fireside talks like our fathers and mothers used to have.” Mrs. Ferguson said she favored enact- ment of laws barring from office all per- sons who used “intoxicating liquor un- lawfully obtained,” and ‘“would require rom all persons elected to office an affidavit that they had not had a drink of any “bootleg intoxicating liquor” within six months before the date of the affidavit. Ferguson, meanwhile, filed his motion for a rehearing on yesterday’s ruling by the Supreme Court. frE PATRIOTIC ORGANIZATIONS ~ IN MEMORIAL SERVICES D. C.

CONGRESS MEMBERS TO HOLD HORSESHOE PITCHING CONTEST| (Continued From First Page.) pitching—the Southern free-throwers and the straight-to-the-mark clan from up New England way. Supporters of the straight-to-the- mark school predict a walk-away for Mr. Tilson. They point with pride to the absence of Irflno and doo-dads in the style accredited to the Republican floor leader, and, arguing from the premise that a straight line is the shortest distance between two points, they can see no reason why the effi- cient delivery of their champion should not prove superior to the offerings of the gentleman from Texas. Style Important {n Texas. Mr. ‘Tilson has kept his own counsel and has made no pre-contest predic- tions. Reports of early morning prac- tice sessions with his secretary could not be confirmed. Mr. Garner comes from a district ‘where horseshoe pitching is something of an art. Down in Texas a certain elegance of style is almost as important as_accuracy. Consequently the Democratic leader boasts a delivery, which, his friends say, is beautiful to behold. It was learned by The Star from a reliable source that he grasps the shoe by the left point and begins his delivery with a slow back swing. This is followed by a graceful forward swing of the arm and a snap of the wrist at the me ment of releasing the shoe. The &ur Eou of the wrist snap, it was explaine to produce the required turn and & half of the shoe as it travels in general direction of the stake. If a turn is missing, or if one too many ma- terializes, the defect is attributed by his friends to the effect of the long session of Congress. Mr. Garner, like his opponent, has made no predictions, but he is under- stood to feel confident that his Texas style of delivery is vastly superior to that of the straight-to-the-mark school. The Star's second annual horseshoe tournament will be announced next Sunday. 12 Hurt in Red Riot.

CLANCY TO.OPPOSE EARLY SEATING OF BLANTON IN HOUSE (Continued From First Page.) censure against him. Mr. Garner asked that Mr. Blanton be permitted to take the oath of office since lady in the case has admitted defeat,” but the re- quest was not granted, pending the re- turn of Speaker Longworth, who will be back tomorrow. Promptly following this reappearance on the floor of Mr. Blanton, Representa- tive Clancy issued a statement in which he declared that the former Representa- tive from Abllene was not entitled to “unusual privileges and courtesies from the House,” use “he does not come with clean hands.” Mr. Clancy charges that Blanton in his campaign “reflected on the honor, integrity and ability of the House.” He said that Mr. Blanton is seeking to ignore the Texas law which holds that a certificate of elec- tion cannot be issued until 30 days after election in order to allow charges of fraud or corrurtion in the election to be flled. Mr. Clancy announced that he will insist on submission of the cer- tificate of election before he will con- sent to his being sworn in, and that one objection is sufficient to bar him until m:(nmglax document arrives. INSPECT rations that Mr. Blanton is said to have promulgated that Congress was making extravagant expenditures and that he | would rush here to stop the wild orgy of costly legislation in the closing days. “He does not come, in my opinion, to aid in the passage of good legislation,” Mr. Clancy said, “but to ham . I have no doubt that on the prmh cal- endar and consent calendar, where the objection of one member will kill a bill, that Mr. Blanton does not intend to use the great power thus vested in a single Representative to promote the general welfare and best interests of the Ameri- can ple. Therefore, tomorrow, if Mr. Blanton presents himself before Speaker Longworth, as was announced yesterday, I will be ready to object to the unanimous consent motion to allow him to take his seat. “He will not be able, under the Texas law, in my opinion, to present his cre~ dentials until June 20, when the House will be adjourned, and the House will have to struggle along without his val- uable services until opening of the next regular session in December.” “I'm ready to go to work again,” Mr. Blanton said. “I've done my share for f | the District of Columbia. I'm not go- ing to make a request to be District committee. I am going to worl for the interests of all the people of the United States, which embraces my dis- trict. Wherever they put me, I'll do my dead-level best.
