NO UNMASKlNG

Just as we thought, the whole trou-
BILE with the Ku Klux Khan was to be
done away with by the unmasking of
that order on public occasions, along
comes Protein Imperial Wizard Ed
ward Young Clarke and throws
monkey wrench into the machinery
when he declares that stopping for
the time being all parades and the ust
.cf masks or costumes for any pur
pose in Georgia by klansmen excep'
in their clavern or lodgeroom'' ap-
plies only to Georgia and is only tenn
Iporary. In other words, the fundamen
tai principles of going masked. which
is after all the bedrock of Ku Klux
ism, is to be steadfastly maintained
says the Rome tribune Herald.
So there you are. Just as we thought
a great deal had been gained by tbs
.nnmasking of the Ku Klux, the actinf
imperial wizard up and denies The
whole thing We thought that there
must be "colored gentleman in tb

enough, there he is.

BRUNSWICK AND The ST. SIMON
HIGHWAY.


Already many nice things are helm
said by members of the Georgia Pres
Association, who were guests of tn
,ity last week The weekly paper
ave not had time to arrive yet, bl
he dailies are talking about Brun
wick.
In the Atlanta Georgian of July q
Dudley Gloss, who represented til
Georgian on the junket to Brunswick
lad the following to say of Brunswic
md the st. Simon highway:
1t begins to look as though the
Brunswick folk are about to build
that long-talked-of bridge from the
mainland to ST. Simon Island And
when they do, and the state high
ways make the 300-mile drive
from Atlanta an easy twelve-hour
stunt, old st. Simon is going to
wake up from her long sleep and
become the most famous summer
and winter--resort Oh the South
Atlantic Coast.
Fred Warde, of the Brunswick
Board of Trade, talked to me last
week of the plans for putting
through a bond issue for the
bridge. which will really be three
bridges and a long causeway over
the marshes. And a stay of sew
eral days on the island, and a
chat with W. w Croxton, passen.
ger traffic manager of the A., B.
& A. railroad, impressed me with
the belief that the highway toIhe
island is going to be built pretty
soon. Mr.. Croxton, whose office is
in Atlanta, has home on st. 81
mems, where his family lives al
most the year round. and he is one
Of the most ardent of the bridge
boosters.
st. Simon is the last island Of
Importance on the South Atlantic
coast which has not been taken
over by private ownership and
thus cut off from the public. Jekyl
island. its nearest neighbOr, just
over the way. has long been the
home OF an exclusive millionaires'
club. Cumberland island, not far
away, is the property OF the Car
negies. St. Simon is superior to
any OF them in its location, its nat
ulal beauty and its wealth of col
onial history. And as a fishing re-
sort it has been the favorite OF
Georgia sportsmen for many
years.
st. Simon has lost some of its
prestige since its principal hotel
wa3 burned several years ago, but
the Campbells, who operate the
small hotel near the pier, have
plans for a new and modern build
ing within year or two-possibly
by next season. And with adequate
accommodations for the type folk
who want real comfort and service
and are willing to pay for i st. ST.
mon should rival AsheVille as a
resort for Southerners in CEmmer
and Northerners in Winter-for
its winter climate is like that of
Florida.
But the type of folk who can af-
ford a seaside vacation usually
own a car and want to use it on
their trips-which means that st.
Simon will not come into her own
until a tourist can drive up 10
the door of the hotel or his own
private cottage.
And as Brunswick feeds the ST.
Simon folk, except for fish, and
Brunswick merchants profit by st.
Simon prosperity, it is. up to
Brunswick to see chat the bridge
becomes something more than a
black line on map and it looks
as though she's going to do that.

NEW YORK, November IL
The street was not SO much i'm
pressed today by the declaration of
the regular dividend on Pacific oil
as it was by the accompanying re-
port for the nine months, showing
a decrease in surplus earnings of
over $4,OO0,00O from the same period
the year before. Pacific Oil was driv-
en- DOWN sharply, and this was the
first unpleasant incident connected
with the oil shares. Next came a
sudden collapse in .transcontinental
oil on a Beport that the pool which
had been operating in the stock some
time ago had dissolved.
Associated Dry Goods.
In connection with the recent ac-
tivity of Associated Dry Goods, the
belief prevailed in certain quarters
today that the common stock Of the

annual dividend is 81. 1t is expect
ed that Associated Dry Goods will re-
port earnings of about S11 on the
common for 1922.
Butte and Superior.
The report Of the Butte and Super
ior Mining Company for the third
quarter of 1922, to be issued tomor-
row, will be an interesting bit Of tes-
timony to the good which has come to

prices for zinc metal. With zinc sell

it is likely that the affairs of Butte
and Superior will have definitely turn
ed for the better with the beginning
Of the new year.
General Motors Report.
The report of the General Motors
Corporation, which accompanied the
declaration Of a dividend of so cents
a share on the common stock showed
conclusively today that 1922 has been
banner year for the motor industry.
The street has paid more attention
to the Studebaker reports, which have
been exceedingly favorable. than it
has to those of any Of the other COM
panies. and the General Motors fig
ures therefore came as g. very pleas

BONDS IRREGULAR

Great Confusion Of Views on
Outlook for All For

BY GEORGE r. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 17.-Bonds
moved irregularly today with a ten
dency toward lower prices.
There was still great confusion OF
opinion about the outlook for the for
eign issues Gains were registered
in most Of the European issues which
have been under pressure of late, and
the same was true of Brazilian bonds
1t cannot be said, however, that SEN
timent toward these issues was much

the effect on the balance OF the Iis'

The support which came into the
market Thursday put the French ss

nearly three points. The decline in
the price Of this issue was the most
severe experienced by any foreign
listed bond and the rally has been

Lyon n-Mediterranian IS did the same.
Department Of Seine Is advanced
more than a point. All the Belgian
bonds were higher.
Other Issues Unsettled.
The market for rails and industrials
was very unsettled. A large selling
order in high-grade underlying rails
was reported, evidently for the ac-
count Of some institution. Liberty
bonds all sold lower. but the declines
were not large.
Speculative rails suffered the most.
Erie convertibles and st. Paul IS of
1925 lost ground. So did Hudson and
Manhattan adjustment IS. Missouri
Pacific general IS went lower. Mis-
souri, Pacific preferred stock has been
there has been no effect on the bond

down to SO. six points below the high

above the low. While the Detroit
Edison has a large funded debt. 1t is
generally considered one of the best
managed utilities In the country and
all its bonds are regarded as sound
investments. There seems to be no
good reason for the decline in price.
Some Bonds Sell Higher.
Among bonds to sell higher on the
day were Chicago Railway IS. Were

piration date Of the franchise this

The status OF this bond Is depend

be ascribed to the block Of new bonds
