IT CHEAP POLITICS.


Judging from the thrilling story.
the governor Is here on the ground
waving the red flag against the
people Of his State and getting
publicity ahead of the Progressive
show"
Mr.. Asvell then presented copies
Of telegrams rom each sheriff and
the judges In his district. all de-
clarink that there Is less lawless-
ness at this time than in manv
years previous.
Gov. Parker himself took much
Of the scare out of the published
reports. He admitted that he came
to Washington to lay the Klan sit
uation before the government, but
. explained II by saving that he only
did so In an effort to have the
government look into Interstate
ramifications Of the Klan.
Attacks on him by Congressman
"who are not posted and do not
know the situation" he said. will
will not deter him from going on
with his fight to suppress the
Klan. But this. he declared, Is a
matter that the State can well
handle without aid from the out
side.
DENOUNCES NEWSPAPER.
The governor then penned a
spirited letter to Washington
morning newspaper. not the Hearts
publication. in which he denounced
as basely false the sensational an
nounceInent that he was coming to
Washington to ask for Federal In
tervention in his State to suppress
the Klan.

ture on such a slight foundation as
has been done by a member of
YOUR staff" he wrote. The article
is a slander on the state of Louis
! lana and its chief executive"
Governor Parker declined to
state what phase of the 81 uation
he had submitted to the Depart
Inent of Justice and to what ex-
tent he had asked for assistance.
Accompanied by Attorney General
Coco, he held a long conference
with President Harding
WHITE HOUSE STATEMENT.
After the conference this state
ment was issued for the President:
The Stale authorities of Louis
lana appear at this time to be
fully capable of handling any sit
uation within their jurisdiction.
There Is nothing at this time for
the Federal Government, to do ex-
cept TO give assurances that
whenever Federal interests are
involved the Federal authorizes
are ready to extend full coopera-
ton.
Governor Parker supplemented
this with q statement of Klan activ-
tiles within his State.
The responsible government of
the State Is determined that re-
gardless OF costs or consequences
a most thorough investigation
will be made of the outrages re-
ported to have been committed
by the ku KIux Klan in Louis
lana.
Certain terrorizing outrages
have been committed and it is
vital that responsibility be fixed
and the offenders punished, not
because of any organized asso-
citation but in spite of this. The
law Of State and nation must be
upheld under any and all cir
cumstances

States congressman Bitter
in Denouncing Governor
Parker's Trip to Capital
he WILL CONTINUE DRIVE
Attacks win Not Deter Him
from Going on with Fight
Against the Organization

The sensational Ku Klux Klan
scare brought to Washington yes
tsrday by Governor John N.
Parker, Of Louisiana, by night had
dwindled into State political row.
A White House statement, issued
after Q visit from the Louisiana
governor, was tr the effect that
justification for Federal interven-
ton had not developed.
While Governor Parker was
stating his case to President Hard
ing, members Of the Louisiana
delegation In Congress bitterly de-
nounced his allegations OF khan
dominance as q reflection on their
State.
BITTER TOWARD GOVERNOR.
They made the charge that Gov
ernor Parker Is seeking political
capital through an attack on the
kan and that conditions are not
a. he has represented them. They
say also that the governor has
full authority to cope with situa-
ton such as he has described and
ts in no way justified in appeal
ing to the Federal Government.
Congressman Aswell was par
ticularly bitter In a formal state
ment in which he declared that
he did not know of the existence
OF the khan in his district.
IF these villainous public at
tacks emanate from the governor
of Louisiana, he presents a humiliat-
ing and pathetic spectacle as he
plays cheap politics to gain front
page notoriety," he said. He NAV
perhaps have his eye on our
senior Senator's seat, or on the
office of Vice President with the
Progressive Republicans in 1924.
