He Told Mcpherson Crowd To
Report to Authorities.
In Direct Contrast to His For
mer Request for Information.
DENY BAGLEY'S MISSION HERE
Governor and VOiland Refuse
To Admit Investigation.
Government Insists 1t Received
No DislOyaIty Letters.

Governor Capper made speech IN
Mcpherson the day following Arthur
7. Bagley's visit to Topeka. In the
Mcpherson speech the governor did
not ask that disloyalty information be
sent to him. Instead he told his audi
ence to notify the proper authorities
and the government will act" The
speech was in contrast to the Marys-
vile statement in April when he urged
that all disloyalty information be sent
directly to him.
Both Governor Capper and Fred
Voiland denied that Bagley came to
Topeka at the instance of the depart
ment of justice and for the purpose
of conducting an investigation. They
denied they were advised that their
methods of receiving and handling
disloyalty information was Illegal. Yet
the speech which the governor made
in Mcpherson the day following the
Bagley v: it was so much in contrast
with the Marysville speech that it has
aroused comment.
When the plan to turn disloyalty
letters over to Voiland was arranged
with approval of the council of de-
fense, the governor urged that all dis
loyalty mail be sent directly to him.
He then sent the hundreds of letters
to Voiland. He never saw them again
and Voiland handled them in such
maner as he desired. Governor Cap
per has said :-ley were not used for
political purposes. Government de-
partments say the letters were not
turned over to them.
That Mcpherson Speech.
But the suspicion that the governor
and Mr.. Voland knew exactly the
purpose of the Bagley visit is in
creased in view of the governors Nc
Pherson speech. Governor Capper
talked to delegates to the state Chris
tan Endeavor convention in McPher-
son and was the principal speaker al
a big loyalty meeting. In the course
of his address he said:
Where thlre is case of open dis
loyalty. notify the proper authorities
and the government will act Where
there is not open disloyalty. but sulier
and reluctant acquiescence, let the
community act"
That speech was delivered June ~
