MAYOR ORDERS POLICE
TO BAR KU KLUX KLAN
No Room for 1t in NeW York,
Says His Letter.

Following exclusive publication in THE
NEW York HERALD of the plans of the
Ku Klux Klan to invade the North end
to establish chapter here, Mayor Hylan
issued orders yesterday to Richard +.
Enright, Police Commissioner, forbidding
an organization of the Klan in New
York city. The Mayors letter 10 the
Commissioner, dated January 10, fol-
lows:
"An article appearing to-day in one or
the newspapers and purporting TO be the
first of series of articles on the same
subject is headed 'Ku Klux Klan to In
wade North in Nationwide Drive The
purposes of the Klan are described In
the article and mention is made of an
issue between the white and all the
colored races and the foreign elements
without attempting to pass upon the
merits of the proposed activities OF the
Ku Klux Klan or any similar organiza-
ton, there is no room in this city for
any group which runs counter to law
and order and tends to create class an
tagonism
1.-The administration of this city has
been conducted without special favors
TO any class. We cannot permit any
portion or law abiding element of our
population to be browbeaten or intimi-
dated. and any attempts in this direc-
ton should be met with stern repression.
New York city Is unique in the di-
versity of it's population. 1t is this
which has contributed TO it's greatness.
People of every race and cline from all
parts of the world have come to our
shores and added to our municipal
growth and grandeur. II behooves us TO
strengthen the unifying influences which
will cause the varied elements of our
population to function harmoniously to-
gether for the common good
Under the Constitution equal rights
and opportunities are accorded every
man. woman and child living in our
country. Every citizen. irrespective of
race, color or creed. can demand equal
recognition In the common affairs of life.
This is recognized by all loyal Americans
devoted to the principles of liberty. rep
resentative government and the su-
premacy of law. No group or set of
men can be "A law unto itself. nor ar
rogate to itself the right to rule others
by reason of the possession of money
power or as self-constituted guardians
of liberty.
1T is unfortunate that some news
papers and other means of access to the
public heart and mind incite rather than
allay race prejudices and hatred II
makes the work of those responsible for
the maintenance of law and order more
difficult But government and authority
must be respected, and the police must
see to 1t that this is done"

AS he is going to New York in a few
months to speak from a public platform
as we'll as before a secret meeting of
Klansmen, New Workers can decide for
themselves what they think of his
brand of oratory. 1t may 'go differ
entity" there. Anyhow. there does not
seem to be any doubt that Colonel Sim
mons has a big. booming voice, that
will fill any ordinary hall; that he
knows how TO use it; that he is ac-
customed to rousing his audiences by
his. stye of oratory and that he is not
afraid to try it on Northerners.
1t is probable that the sentimental
side of the revival of the old Ku Klux
Klan first appealed to Colonel Sim
mons. It's more practical side must
have come later.
Although the reorganzed Ku Klux
Klan has been in existence in Atlanta.
the scene of its rebirth, more than five
years, it has made only two pubic
appearances on a large scale.
The Klan works silently and without
ostentation and 3 new Klansmen are
selected because of proved merit and
reputation for integrity and high moral
character" They are not herded II
with beating of drums and sounding OF
horns, says Col. Simmons
The first public appearance of the
Klan on a large scale in Atlanta was
during the Confederate Veterans, re-
union in Atlanta in 1919. On that oc-
casion when the veterans were holding
their parade md were receiving th'
cheers of the multitude, the Klan, clad
in their conical shaped helmets ano
long flowing robes, suddenly appeared
apparently from nowhere, and wheeled
| into line at the end of the long pro-
| cession.
! There were gasps of amazement from
! the crowds on the streets as the hun
dreds of shostly figures swept slentl.
along. and even the applause for th
veterans was hushed as time suldenl!

The second public appearance of tn
| Klan was in the parade and at the grea
| bonfire in Atlanta January 16, 1920
when the dry amendment went int
effect, and which marked the nationa
death of John Barleycorn. The Klal
took only a silent part in the ceremonic

sidored the proposed reduction at

ccmbcr. 1919, half Of tho twenty per
cent bonus which had been granted the
employees would bo eliminated. While
