Speaking directly to a group of rail-1tion has been granted a credit of
road men gathered beside his car to-1$4000000 in the Federal Intermedi-

BREAKING UP OF THE KLAN
(Tulsa World)
Apparently the Ku Klux Klan is
breaking up The row at Atlanta
among the muckymucks is sufficient
to break up anything He is an en-
thusiast indeed who does not witness
the dirty linen without a feeling of
humiliation that he ever was a part
of such movement
The whole public has been given
the impression that this organization
regardless of its high-sounding "prin-
ciples" is indeed nothing more nor
less than a promotion scheme for per-
sonal wealth and power
State organizations are withdraw-
ing everywhere Texas klans have
adopted resolutions declaring them-
selves apart from Atlanta until the
litigation is finally ended
All of which is proof enough that
the imperialistic business cannot
stand in America not even in a fra-
ternal organization Too many gen-
erations of American men and women
have been born here An autocracy
is a darned poor organization with
which to preserve a republic
