ing of Wizard.
WILL ANNOUNCE REPORT
Department of Justice May
Continue Investigation of
Organization.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 1.-THE pro-
posed investigation Of the Ku Klux
Khan by congress blew up Monday.
After a ten minute session behind
closed doors, the house rules COM
mittee which at morning and after
noon sessions put william ]. Sim
mons, the klan's imperial wizard,
through a rigid examination, voted
unanimously not TO call any more
witnesses, certainly not at this
time.
Announcement of the committees
action was made by Chairman Camp
bell, and while the chairman and
members refused later to make any
comment beyond the bare statement
as to witnesses, it is expected that
an adverse report will be submitted
20 the house on a number of resolu-
tiOns providing for an investigation.
Final action, however, will not be
taken until several absent members
return to Washington, but house
members accepted it as settled that
they were done with the Ku Klux,
unless the department of justice,
conducting an. inquiry OF it's own,
comes forward with unexpected evil
dence.
Simmons Weak.
Still showing the effects of his ill
ness, the imperial wizards voice
weakened as he sat all day answer
ing a whirlwind of questions. As
on previous days, he entered a cate
gorical denial of charges Of lawless-
ness by the khan and reiterated that
the total membership OF the organi-
zation was slightly under 100. 900.
There was an exciting moment at the
outset, when Simmons dramatically
declared that according TO informa-
ton given him by Rep. Upshaw, OF
Georgia, a man who was supposed
TO have been present stated that
Chairman Campbell and Asst Gen.
Grim had characterized his collapse
last week as "a cheap theatrical at
tempt to gain sympathy"
Quick as a flash Chairman Camp
bell declared there was not a word
of truth in it. Mr.. Grim. jumping
to his feet in the confusion, declared
the chairman's answer went for him.
and the wizard, still smiling, said he
was glad to know it.
AS he left the stand Mr.. Simmons
said that he wanted TO thank the
committee for its consideration and
courtesy.
Makes Reference.
Reference to the daily presence Of
the assistant attorney general, and
the one day stay Of William J..
Burns, director of the department
OF justice bureau Of investigation,
was made by Rep. Pou, DEM, North
Carolina, while he was examining
the wizard.
Asked if he had been inundated
by the presence of Mr.. Burns. whom
he characterized as 1.-The Sherlock
Holmes Of the United tSates," Mr..
Simmons said that he had not, and
