| bill for the second time, and charges
| that attempts were being made to delay
| the bill in the special session, In the
same manner in which it was "pocketed"
at the regular session OF 1919, brought

tration followers, as well as from Lieus
| Gov. Edgar d. Bush.
Il don't know why the bin has not
teen printed" said Senator Dufrey, as
he requested the reading OF the measure.
at seems TO me the same tactics are
being used now as were used in the last
regular session when a similar measure
: was pigeonholed TO prevent its passage
The bin introduced at this session
was especially requested by the Fedora
/ ticn of Farmers Associations and that
organization, as well as the other citizens
of Indiana, are going to hold the ma
jority party I'm this senate responsible
for this measure" said Mr. Duney.
Referring 30 the allegation made by
Senator Duffey that the bill was
pigeon holed" at the regular session.
Lieut.. Gov. Bush denied he was response
BILE for the failure of the bins passage
and accused the press Of the state of
making misleading statements as 10 the
responsibility for the failure Of the bin
TO become a law.
The bill was not pigeon holed." said
Mr.. Bush, 'and the failure Of its passage
can be laid at the door Of no person
other than the sponsors of the measure.
THE bill was regularly reported out of
committee, and at the night session Of
the last day OF the regular session. Il
was laid on my desk, along with many
other bills that were hurriedly reported
at the eleventh hour rush.
AT that time the chair was handed
over to several Of the senator's, in turn,
and each In turn refused, or failed TO
hand the bill down
DENIES ANYTHING
UNDERMINED.
The bill was entrusted to the. com
mittee of which Senator Mckinley, for
whom have the highest regard. Is chair
man. ard ! am sure that he would stoop
to no uuderhsnded methods to prevent
the passage of a bill of any kind"
Considerable opposition was voiced to
the passage Of the latest "blue sky" bin
presented to the special session.
Many OF the senator's declare that the
bill has no teeth" In IT, and that it's
passage would be useless.
Those speaking in defense OF the bill.
however, declare that the measure has
its merits, and inasmuch as the peo-
pie are demanding some sort OF blue
sky legislation, the present bin should
become a law.
The people are demanding a blue
sky law" said Senator Oscar Rats Of
PaoH. speaking in defense of the pro
posed bill.
1T Is time that Indiana should cease
to be the dumping ground for all sorts
of fake stock promotion schemes. and
while the statements is made that the
bill has no teeth" in It. yet it has its
merits aud should be passed"
Upon being advised that the printed
copies OF the bin would be returned
from the state printer by this morning,
the senate made action on the measure
special order of business for o'clock.

THE X. OF G. OATH

,From the New York Evening SUM
The Knights of Columbus are reminded
from time to time, of the persistent pur-
pose Of certain persons to stir up reli-
gious hatreds in election years. Lately
copies OF the notorious bogus fourth de-
gree oath" attributed to them have been
circulated in various parts of the coun-
try. This offensive production. which Is
about equally blasphenous and revolt
ing, has been circulated. occasionally, for
many years. 1t Is an old and worn out
imposture and among intelligent persons
defeats it's own ends by it's own absurd
ity
Perhaps the best way to make clear
what the obligation is what is assumed
by the knights of Columbus on entering
the organization Is to print 1t as II really
il:
I swear to support the Constitution OF
the United States. pledge myself. as
a Catholic citizen and Knight OF Column
bus. to enlighten myself fully upon my
duties as a citizen and to conscientious
ly perform such duties entirely in the
interest of my country and regardless Of
all personal consequences ! pledge my
self to do all in my power 10 preserve the
integrity and purity OF the ballot, and to
promote reverence and respect for law
and order I promise to practice my re-
iigion openly and consistently. but with
| out ostentation, and to so conduct my
self in public affairs. and in the exercise
| Of public virtue as TO reflect nothing but
| credit upon our Holy Church. to the end
| that she may flourish and our country
1 prosper to the greater honor and glory
| OF God.

Americanism and honest citizenship
