nv International News Service)
Tulsa Okla, April 26-In the days
of the pioneer in the great southwest
they fought prairie fires with hre.
Today, in Texas and Oklah oma, the
Ku K1ux Khan is face to face with an
''antf' organization.
Within the last few months the Ku
Klux Khan has shown Its strength 1t
appears to exist in every community.
In the big, modern, fast-growing cities
of the Southwest it numbers thou
sands of it's invisible empire" This
has been proved by parades and dem
onstrations in such cities as Dallas,
Fort Worth Beaumont, Waco. Okla
homa City, Tulsa and other cities.
Here, only few weeks ago. nearly
5000 hooded figures passed through
the streets. The parade was fifteen
blocks in length. At It's head masked
riders bore aloft the emblem of the
khan. Overhead an ainplane circled,
bearing a flaming cross.
All of these demonstrations. ex-
cept the one at Waco, have been
peaceful. And to the credit of the
khan are numberless good deeds, in
which the klansmen have been an
gels of mercy, assisting the poor and
worthy by acts of charity.
Khan Causes Crime.
Against these. however, the oppo-
nents of the klansmen point to the
acts of violence which have swept
Oklahoma and Texas. It is not
charged that the khan had any part
in the foggings, tar parties" and
seizures in which citizens have been
dragged from their homes and after
suffering acts of violence, have been
turned loose with a warning to pack
up and leavei''
But it is charged that the exist
ence of the khan has encouraged
masked riders of the night to take
the law into their own hands and.
cloaking their identity behind hood
ed masks, administer summary JUS
dee to citizens c1assed as "lawbreak-
ers and undesirables.
