ing Investigation of Organi-
zatiOn Will BE Made
RESOLUTION in CONGRESS
RESOLUTION IN CONGRESS

Washington, Sept. 2l--Information
in the hands of the department of JUS
tice as to the activities of the ku
Klux Klan was laid before President
Harding today by Attorney General
Daugherty after the latter had con-
ferred with Director Burns Of the
departments bureau of investiga-
tion.
Federal action against the organ
ization, according to Mr.. Daugherty,
would be probably under some statute
covering conspiracy He made clear
however that on it's face the literature
of the clan was not in violation of the
law and what was, to be determined
was what went on behind the scenes.
The activities Of the organization,
he emphasized, would be given the
most careful consideration before any
federal policy was determined.
An investigation of the Ku Klux
Klan is already proposed by Repre-
sentative Tague, Democrat, Massa-
chusetts, in a resolution which he pre-
pared and expects to introduce today
In the preamble he asserts the organ
ization is "anti-American" and that
its objects and purposes are the
Exile and oppression OF PERSONS and
members of certain races and ceH'-
tain religious sects."

SLAYER STILL
BEING HUNTED
AT WILLISTON

Wifliston, n. D.. Sept 21-Frank
Bann, miner, sought in connection
with the killing of Mack Hendrickson,
mine boss who was found near the en-
trance Of the Williston Coal and Ice
company mine, mortally wounded by
a gunshot, is still at large.
The finding Of Bann's celluloid COL
lar and his necktie near the mine
entrance leads officials to believe ne
was hiding in the brush while they
were searching his shack and that he
STAYED there until he had a chance to
escape in the darkness.
Thorough search of the mine has
exploded the theory that he was hid
den in some out of the way shaft.
Three suspicious characters who
were brought in by posse did moi
answer the description Of the wanted
man.

MURDER

VAIL STUDDED CLUB USED

Dowagiac, Mich. Sept. 2l-A
blood-stained club, rail studded, and
a bloody finger print were the clues
today by which local authorities
hoped to clear up the murder
of three persons and the serious in
jury Of another, child, in their home
here.
William Monroe, his wife and their
17-year-old daughter, Neva, were
found beaten to death with the club.
In the same room was found Ardith
Monroe, 10-year-old daughter, who
had been beaten on the head until un-
conscious,
The little girl was. made blind by
the blows. Although her recovery is
said to be doubtful officers hope she
may be revived sufficiently to tell the
story of the attacks.
The tragedy was discovered yester-
day when Ardith's chum, Grace Nc
Kee entered the h home after hearing
Ardith moan. She found her play
mate beside a bed in which lay the
body of her sister. In other beds lay
the body OF, the parents. A club into
which nails had been driven was
standing against the wall. On the
wall nearby was a bloody finger
print.
The interior of the home indicated
no struggle and the bed-clothing was
not disarranged, leading officials to
believe the three had been killed as
they slept.
The neighbors asserted the crime
probably took place Saturday night as
members of the Monroe family were
last seen at that time. 1t is believed
Ardith lay wounded on the floor
nearly go hours before being discov-
cred.
Authorities have been unable to
establish q motive for the crime.

nor Howard r. Wood last evening told
the Woman's Nonpartisan club of
Fargo that if the l. v. A. initiated
measures were approved by the voters
in the recall election on October %,
he will resign his Office. This state

the I. V. A. initiated laws have been
approved by the people will resign"
said the lieutenant governor. II have
twice been elected to the Office on the

is the only reason why have accept
ed such Office. i believe in this pro-
gram and have done and will do

The ten who agreed to join the or
ganizati0n are: Schneider Brothers,
Louis Garske, George w. Hedrix, p j.
iHeltenberg, !. j. Reid, Frank Paris,
Wilbert Fields, p. M. Gosney, Edward
Doppler, Geo. Malard.
Many of the farmers who had OK
pected to be at the meeting were un.
asle to be there because they were
threshing. Some had already assured
the agricultural committee of the
Commercial club, which sounded out
sentiment on the proposition, that
they desired to help form the dairy
circuit. The meeting, which opened
here in the Commercial club yester-
day morning, was called as prelim-
mary meeting but sentiment which
developed during the morning, at the
Open Forum luncheon at the Grand
Pacific Hotel at which business men
of the city joined the farmers, and
the afternoon meeting resulted in the
forming of the organization. About
25 farmers are expected at the per-
manent organization meeting on Oct.
i. G. N. Remission, secretary Of the
Commercial, Club, was delegated to
act as temporary secretary.
1t was decided to have circuit to
1pver as much of the country as is
practicable, and to limit the men,
bership to 26 1t is planned to select
at the next meeting permanent Sec
retary, to arrange for the employment
OF superintendent who shall visit
the various herds, keep the pedigree
and production records Of every ami
NAL and generally aid in wedding out
unproductive animals and improving
the production capacity of the herds.
70 Go Slowly
At the beginning no herd will be an
all -{Holstein herd. Most of the farm.
ers who are going in the circuit now
are, milking q number OF cows. Each
herd must, however, Ce headed by =
Holste..n sire. The sentiment. Of the
farmers was that the dairying should
progress steadily, without plunging,
with the elimination of Improbable
cows and substitution of purebreds as
the business develops.
The Commercial club dinner held
in the Grand Pacific hotel was largely
attended. C.. l.. Young, president Of
the club, presided Speakers includ-
ed Geo. Ritter, superintendent Of the
Flasher Holstein circuit; Max Nor.
gan, livestock extension specialist,
and E. J. 'Sawtell, one of the owners
of large H0lstein herd near Flasher.

TOWN WRECKED
BY EXPLOSION
OF CHEMICALS
Disaster Occurs in District Along
Rhine Built up During
War
MANY CITIES FEEL FORCE
Inhabitants in Cities Is Miles
Away Are Shaken by Ex-
plOsi0n

Mayence, Germany, Sept. 81.
-(By the Associated Press -
Eight hundred persons are re-
ported to have been killed and
many injured by explosions in
the Badische Anilinfabrik works
at Oppau.
Occurs in Laboratory
The disaster appears to have been
one of the most terrible in the history
of industrial catastrophies.
The first explosion occurred when
the shifts were being changed at 7:45
a. m. in Laboratory where 800 men
were working. All of these are re.
ported killed.
This explosion was followed IN rap
id succession by others, which render
ed assistance to the first victims i'm
possible. The conclusions were so ter
rifle that they were felt in this city
some IS miles from the scene, while
at Mannheim, IL miles away, almost
every window was shattered and sew
eral persons were killed and 36 others
injured by debris.
Killed Miles Away
Some persons were killed at Lud-
Wigshafen across the Rhine from
Mannheim. Many roofs were blown
off houses and all the windows in the
town were broken at Worms while of
Oppau itself nothing remains but
ruins.
The shock was felt as far as Krank-
fort, more than, 40 miles away, and
many windows were broken there.
The whole district was enveloped
in thick smoke which together with
the cutting of telephone and tele-
graph communication hampered ef-
forts at assistance.
= Reports from the scene variously
describe the disaster as due to the
explosion sof gas or spirits tank.
Paris, France, Sept. 21-One thous-
and persons are reported to have been
killed and several thousand others in
tjured at Oppau near Frankenthal in
the Rhine Palatinate through explo-
sions in a chemical products plant, &C.
cording to Mayenc message to the
Havas received here today.
The town of Oppau itself was en-.
tirely destroyed by the explosion the
advices state.
The force of the shocks was felt
for distance of nearly Is miles
around In Mannheim one person
was killed and about 50 injured.
The cause Of the catastrophe is not
known.
The region in the Rhine Palatinate
where today's disastrous explosion
occurred was developing during the
war into one of the most extensive
and productive of Germany's chemical
munitions supply districts. Oppau it.
self is a comparatively small town
with only few thousand people but
nearby are Frankenthal, q consider
ably larger place and Ludwigshafen,
which has a population Of some
$4,000 and which during the war was
accounted the largest of the German
chemical manufacturing plants for
war purposes The chemical works
there are still on vast SCALE
1t is about seven miles southeast of
Frankenthal and directly across ths
Rhine from Mannheim. During the
war the region was frequently bonn
barded by allied armen, Ludwigs-
hafen being their particular target.
