and the reopIi vllI Find
I heir Own Way"
The Ku Klux Klan will celebrate its
anniversary on May 6 by the burning
of "fiery crosses" over the state Sat-
urday night of this week Here is the
secret order of Zack thirris grand
dragon:
"We hope that every Man in the
state will observe the anniversary of
the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan by
burning fiery crosses at each point of
the compass on the night of May S
t would like to s'iggest that no elab-
orate arrangements or great expense
be incurred in doing this The best
cross possible for this occasion is
simply two poles wrappedwith burlap
saturated with oil If every Man in
the state observes this it will be a
fitting remembrance of May 6 anni-
versary of the Man"
So if you see a burning cross
somewhere Saturday night don't get
excited Just know that a couple of
the boys were delegated to properly
impress you by putting on their over-
' ails and getting their hands all greasy
while crossing a couple of poles
wrapped in oily cloth and setting
them on fire No parades have been
ordered With the mystery removed
it all looks very cheap and common-
place doesn't it? Just a glorified
bmfirel

The Civic theater (Oklahoma City's
Little Theater) will put on the play
The Enemy" next Monday Tuesday
and Wednesday nights This is a
home-talent show expressly for the
artistically elect If you have the
love for drama and 50 cents in money
you have all you will need to make
you a part o this intimate little
group Love for the artistic is the

Saturday the voters of bklahomit
City will register their wishes re-
eerding the school levy for next year
The laW WOWS a SC12001 levy of but
mills without the consent of the
otem Beyond that the levy must
be voted
a a e
For years tile voters of this city
CA have gone to the polls and voted an
extra levy of 9 9-10 mills making the
total levy 149 mills The public is
asked to do the same thing this year
This levy is not an increase over pre-
viotts years
Without an affirmative vote on this
matter It will not be possible to have
more than five months of school next
year Such a tragedy is unthinkable
Quite aside from its effect en the
children which is the primary con-
sideration It would wreck the city
economically People would quit
4 coming here and thousands now here
iould leave
No sane man would think of such
'A thing as voting against this addl
f:onal levy But there are always a
IPIV short-sighted fight-wads who are
Just that penny wise and pound fool-
Therefore a sufficient number
of intelligent people must go to the
polls to make the result certain
The polls open at 6 a tn and stay
open until 6 p m You may vote at
thc elementary (or grade) school In
t he district where you live The
P privilege of voting for this levy should
not be neglected
6
In this levy is enough money to
enable the school board to provite for
I the summer playground activities if it
will The board has thought of using
a fraction of a mill of this money for
new buildings or equipment and then
going without the summer playgrounds
The News is suporting the levy
with the distinct understanding that
we favor using the Lecessary money
to maintain the summer activities
Schoolhouses should be built as a
capital investment to be paid for
by issuing bonds Current levies
should be for current P pens and
fink!ng fund This is bound financing
The physical and moral health of
our children demands the summer
ROWItIPS Vote the levy Saturday
Then we will all get busy and try
t) convince the school board that
the public demands the supervised
playgropnd activittes We cannot
afford a backward step in this diredion
correspondent asks me what
Influence indueed us to keep the
story Of the recent whipping of a
negro at Tulsa off our front page I
dont know Certainly it was noth-
ing more than mechanical difficul-
ties Invo)ved In making up a paper
or the news editor's sense of the
relative value of news I think I
would have tried to get it on the
front page had I been working on
the desk Perhaps not
If my correspondent Means to in-
tiMee that some sinister influence
or some prejudice against negroes
put the story on the inside of the
paper he k badly mistake Thr
News doesn't operate that
A negro has precisely the same
rvlI richts as the rest of us and
