differences arise labor should sit
down on one side OF the table and
capital on the other, and come to
an agreement. We don't want
some un-naturalized foreigner jump
ing up on the table and causing
trouble"
The second principle for which
the Khan stands, he said, is the
supremacy OF the white race. The
Ku Klux Khan is the last stand
OF the pure Caucasian race"
TIE stated that the white race
has for time immemorial been CIV
ing OF its blood to the darker races.
and while they are constantly
growing stronger, the white race
has grown weaker. The white
race has always been the leader, he
declared, and at no time in history
has there been any knowledge OF
white cannibals. 1.-THE black race"
he said, "has existed for untold
centuries in the African jungles
without learning how to fell a tree
without burning it down, until the
white race showed him how
I'VE have no fight with the ne
gro.'' he declared. land We say to
him, Take pride in your black skin
and make as much of yourself as
you can; but we draw the line
there. There must be no crossing
of the two bloods.'
But there is a far greater dang
err" he said. 1.-THE negro IS not
dangerous in America The danger
we are facing in the west is much
more alarming, that OF the jap
anese immigration The danger in
this is the lowering Of the moral
ity Of our womanhood." He men
toned in this connection the hum
dreds OF American motors to be
found in California with mixed
blood children.
Japan won't fight" he declar-
ed ''She is doing the same thing
we should do in her own country.
No Chinese or Korean Is allowed
to enter Jaapn.
The third principle was that 1--WE
believe in the separation of the
church and the state We concede
to every man the right to worship
God in any manner he may see fit"
he declared. land if any man
should ever attempt to close the
doris of a cathedral of synagogue
or church and say you shall not
worship here the Ku Klux Khan
would rise and say Hold Every
man has a right to worship as he
sees fit But when any priest or
rabbi OF preacher steps down from
the pulpit and attempt to lay hands
on the reins Of government, then
we will just as strenuously oppose
that In his plea to forever
separation OF church
and state he quoted render unto
Caeser that which is Caeser's and
unto God that which is Gods. He
asked that the people render unto
the church that which belongs to
the church. and unto the state
that which is the states.
Another thing that we stand
squarely behind is our system of
our free public schools
and while we are not enemies OF
to their calling our schools cess
pools of iniquity' and in other ways
with their progress"
The sanctity Of the home is
the fourth principle upheld by the
Khan, he stated. There is no
place in our organization for the
man who does not respect woman
hood, or for the man who walks
the street using vile words in the
hearing OF women. Neither is
there room for boot-1eggers or law
81 do not believe any man can
be the best of fathers unless he
has given his heart to God" de-
clared Doctor Hawkins in closing.
Later to the women particularly,
he said ''You can go home tonight
and lie down beside your little
ones and rest in peace, knowing
that there is an organization of the
Ku Klux Khan in Warrington, and
that they are of the best citizens
your city affords. There is also an
organization in Fairmont.''
1t was emphatically stated last
night that Doctor Hawkins intends
to speak in Fairmo ont and the state
ment was made that If South Side
Park nor any hall or room is avail
able in the city. Doctor Hawkins
will speak IL necessary from some
hill outside the city. 1t is declared
that he intends that the people of
Fairmont shall hear the truth
about the organization he repre-
sents. and he Will then leave the
decision as. to whether or not the
Ku Klux Khan is right and should
continue in its phenomenal growth
to the people.
