name Ku Kux Kan worrying several Southern editors quite
as much as it worrying Northern who know
lille and suspect LOT about South and its people Some OF
them profess terrible the South; others tear tor
its Still others admit its possibilities for good standing on
its principles assisting the enforcement of law and order and
are content admonh those behind and responsible for to be
