of the Knights OF the ku kiux
Khan, in statement issued today
makes spirited and empahtic reply TO
falses tatements published in certain
sections of the country that the ku

The imperial wizard severely cen.

witj, headquarters in New York.
which he charges is largely respon
sible for the misconceived ideas OF
the ku klux Khan and its purpose.
This negro association and its
friends, says Colonel Simmons
has. falsely held up the Ku Klux
Khan as an enemy of the negro race
as a breeder of race hatred and has
deliberately and maliciously sought to
deceive the negro into believing
that this organization not only threat
ems him with bodily Injury in the
future but already has beaten and
even killed negroes. driven them away
from the ballot boxes and sought 10
terrify them into fleeing the country
by midnight palades and threats.
The National Association for the
Advancement OF Colored People Is
using the Ku Klux Khan as cud-
sci TO eXtort money from members
Of the negro races for the purpose OF
carrying on its nefarious purposes
and is deluding them with the hope
of social and political equality and
ether wild promises which the back
ers OF this association know never
can and never will be fulfilled"
The Night Riders
Colonel Simmons declares these
assertions that the Ku Klux Khan Is
spreading the doctrine Of race hatred
and race prejudice are on a par with
and originate from the same sources
as those which propagated the SANDER
several weeks ago that this organiza-
ton was identified with the night rid
ers who We're burning cotton gins and
Fthrcatenei their owners unless they
ceased operations until The price of
cotton rose
I'VE are not SURPRISED aud we are
not seriously perturbed by the fact
that from time to time we are called
upon to answer the wilful and malic-
icus falsehoods circulated about the
ku Klux Khan" says Colonel SIM
mons. 1t is to be expected that any
organization standing for pure Amer
icanism and which has the courage
openly 20 avow its purpose and to
proceed fearlessly with its work viii
be assailed bitterly by the forces
which are seeking to bring about IN.
