LEGION STAGES THE TARRING
Two Forced to Apply "coat" and Roll

from Kansas Town Along
With others.

Great Bend, Kan.-An anti-Nonpar-
tisan League demonstration in Barton
county reached a climax in the escort
ing from Great Bend of ]. Ralph Bur
ton, former United States senator
from Kansas, and the tarring of ]. 0.
Stevic and A. A. Parsons, alleged of
Ulcers of the league. 1t was revealed
that SteVic and Parsons were com
PEELED to apply coating of tar to
themselves after their clothing had
been removed After they had been
forced by the crowd of several hun
bred men to roll on the ground their
clothing was returned and they were
told to leave the county.
The whereabouts of .Stevic and
Parsons, who are state organizer and
state secretary, respectively, of the
league, was not known. Neither had
word been received here as to the
whereabouts of Burton or of a Prof.
Wilson, another organizer for the
league, who was with Burton when he
was Forced to leave Great Bend.
Burton and Wilson were on their
way to Ellinwood, small town in
this county, where they were to adj
dress a meeting yesterday afternoon.
When they did not appear Stevic and
Parsons came here to learn what had
become of them. The latter pair was
then taken out of the city and told
not to return. Later when they ap.
peared again in Ellinwood they were
taken in hand by the mob and tarred.
When 1t became known at Lyons. a
small town nearby, that Stevic and
Parsons had returned to Ellinwood
again American Legion men are re,
ported to have gathered for the pur-
pose of going there after them Bugle
calls were used to rally crowd TO
make the trip and the gathering de-
parted. They interrupted a NonsPar-
tisan League meeting and brought
Stevic and Parsons to Great Bend.
A party numbering about 200 men
took Stevic and Parsons out on a road
leading north from here. No opposi-
tion was encountered. A few miles
from town halt was called and the
men were ordered to remove their
clothes.
They obeyed and a supply Of tar
was brought forth. Smear that on, :
was the command and the two, trem.
bling from the cold night air, began
the application of the substance to
their naked bodies. When they had
finished they were ordered to lie down
and roll in the grass. A lack of feath-
ers made this imperative, members OF
the crowd said.
