of funds resulting from the reported
sales of materials which had been pur-
chased for the Russian government
from American contractors.
The action of Bakhmeteff in using
large part of the loan he had secured
from the treasury department to liqui-
date claims of American contractors
against the Russian government had
the approval of the treasury depart
ment in 1917, according to statement
made at that time by Mr.. Leffingwell.
Asks for Information
Leffingwell was asked by Rep. Nc
Fadden, member of the expenditures
in the state department committee, If
he believed 1t to be good policy to
permit Bakhmeteff to take such action
rather than to have American con-
tractors secure themselves against
possible loss by seizing Russian prop
erty in this country. Leffingwen re-
piled that in his opinion is was good
policy.
1t is the general impression in
/ Washington that the present admins
tration entertains no decisions regard.
ing the value of the obligations pur-
chased from the Russian government
for $187 100000 by the previous ad
ministration. 1t is known that the
British government has bid fond
farewell to the vast war loans it ad
vanced to Russia. The continued rec
ognition of Boris Bakhmeteff as Rus
sian ambassador is attributed by many
Ito be due to the fact that his dismis
sal by the state department might be
interpreted as the prelude to the rec
ognition of the soviet government o
Russia. Secretary of State Hughes i!

milton of Russia's present government

.EICHT-DAY SESSION
OF PRESBYTERIANS
TO CONVENE MAY is

DES MONIES, Ia, May 10. - This
city is preparing to welcome hundreds
of commissioners, together with many
foreign missionaries, officers and rep
resentatives of the Presbyterian
church, to be assembled here in annu-
al general conference on May Is for
an eight day session. The meeting
marks the bath general assembly of
the church in the United States.
One of the outstanding reports of
the convention is expected to be that
of the special committee on reorgan-
ization and consolidation of boards, to
be submitted May %. Dr. John limo
thy Stone of Chicago is chairman of
a committee which has spent two
years investigating the advisability of
consolidating certain boards.
Opening of the General Assembly
will be conducted by DR.. Henry Chap
man Swearinger, Moderator of St.
Paul, Mimi, whose term of office will
then expire.
May Choose Layman
There appears to be a strong posi-
bility that a layman may succeed DR..
Swearingen as Moderator DR.. John
Manson, banker, of New Haven, Conn.
has been suggested for the position.
Only one layman moderator has been
in charge of the general assemblies
of the church. At one time, DR.. John
Willis Baer, banker of Pasadena
Cal, held this position. Owing to the
growing importance of mems work in
the church, it was believed by many
members that another layman might
take charge at this time. The FACT
that the year 1923 ends the five year
period for which the Presbyterian
New Era Movement, the forward or
ganization of the church was set up
is given as an addition reason why a
layman moderator might be chosen.
Among the clergy, the name of DR.
William Hiram Foulkes of New York
general secretary of the New Era
Movement has been advanced as a
possible successor to DR.. Swearingen
The New Era Movement is given
credit by ministers and laymen alike
for the fact that the Presbyterian
church in the United States is today
stronger than ever before in it's his
tory having made great gains in mem
bership and more than doubled its be
nevolent budget.

department, and R. c. Leffingwell, as
sistant secretary of the treasury
The position occupied by Bakhmet-
eff is without precedent. in American
history. He is an envoy without
government. He came here in the
summer of 1917 under the Kerensky
government and was accepted by the
state department as the Russian am
bassador, this government having pre-
viously recognized the kerensky
government
The Kerensky government was over
thrown by the Bolshevists in Novem-
Der, 1917, and the Soviets lost no
time in repudiating Bakhmeteff as
Russian ambassador, but he has con-
tinued to this day to occupy the Rus
sian embassy in Washington, and to
be received by the American govern
| ment as the Russian envoy.
Negotiates Loan.
| Between July and November, 1917,
Bakhmeteff negotiated loans from this
/ government aggregating $187, 900. 600.
/ In return for these advances the treas
ury took over obligations of the Ke-
! rensky government. Two years later
i Mr. Leffingwell, assistant aecretary
Elliott committee that he believed
these obligations were good. Russia
is rich" he said, "and you need have
no worry about that $187 100000"
But Senator Bohah is worried. SC
is Representative Elliott and many
other members of congress. 1t is re
ported in Washington that the Soviet
government Of Russia is prepared t.
present counter claims against the
American government which vii
equal if not exceed the total of thu
loans this government advanced tt
Bakhmeteff
1.-THE Russian counter claims would
be based upon the occupation of Rus
sian territory by American armed
forces 1t will be recalled that fol
lowing the armistice, American troops
in northern Russia actually engaged
: in hostilities with Soviet forces.
= No Information.
The Elliott committee failed to oh
tain information as to why the Wilson
administration continued to recognize
Rakhmeteff as Russian ambassador
following his reputation by the Sovie
government, and it obtained informa
ton only of a general nature as T
! how the $751;, 100000 advanced t
; Bakhmeteff was expended. Mr.. LEFT
, ingwell testified that considerabl
part of these funds were used to pa
flor materials which had been pull
chased from American contractors.

list of these contractors be compile
and made public. The names Q
the contractors were withheld fror

a curiosity 0ncerning the disposition

NAN DEAD One
IN VALLEY

In a special dispatch, following in
vestigation by men sent from Los An
geles. the Los Angeles Times today
prints the following on the Ku Klux
Klan situation in Imperial Valley:
Ell centric, June Funeral serv-
ices for the last crumbling remnant of
the "invisihle empireo in Imperial
Valley are due in a few days, it was
announced here today by the men whose
names appear on the list of Officers of
the Ell Ceptro and Calexico branches of
the Ku Klux Klan. Interment will be
in Calexico.
Men prominent III the life of the
valley, most of them individuals of
standing in the community and persons
who joined the organization in good
faith and for patriotic motives, request
that there be no flowers.
In other words, so far as the best
element of the respective communities
is concerned, the Ku Klux Klan is dead
in Imperial Valley.
He is Through
Incidentally Homer R. Pitts, kleagle
of the klan, and the man who brought
the hooded order into existence here, is
through. He is done with the klan. He
Imperial Valley press., 1922-06-02

said so today, mincing no words about
it.
The names of the men placed by
Kleagle Pitts and his "kitchen cabi-
net ON the Officers roll of the Ell
Centre and Calexico klans were' reveal
ed here today. In justice to these men
be it said that few, if any of them,
knew they were selected and that a
large percentage of them resigned as
soon as they read about the Inglewood
raid engineered by Kleagle n. A. Baker
April %, last.
Here is the list of names Kleagle
Pitts, the Atlanta Klansman, sent into
Los Angeles headquarters as the El
Centre officers of the Barbara Worth
Klan, early this spring:
Exalted Cyclops, Ed Judy; Klaliff
Harry Barker; Klokard, Norman G
Deaton; Kludd, Charles Z. Pitzer; Xii
grapp, Harry B. Ellison; Klabee, Fred
j. Gianola; Kladd, Charles e. Sones;
Klarogo, o. L. Jeacon; Klexter, William
Fleming; Klokann, Charles Z. Scott, !
L. Hinrichsen, Frank Albright, and
Night Hawk, j. B. Daley.
Most of the men whose names were
placed on the officers list met in h
Centre yesterday and emphatically plac
ed themselves on record regarding The
Ku Klux Klan situation. 1t is at thi;
meeting that. the facts came to light
Messrs. Judy, Barker, Sones and Al
bright were the men who "quit the
Khan the first day after the lnglewooC

still, sheriff. c. C. Corwin, John ID.

thur +. Edgar, Robert Burns and from
Calexico, T.. n. lockwood and William
c. Allen.
That most of these men joined on
representation that other highly re-
spected citizens were ''in y and that
the Masonic and Elk influences were
brought to bear by the organizers was
disclosed by some of the men who to-
dav made full statement of the
whole affair.
don t forget that we all were and
still are actuated by the finest and
most patriotic motives. There has never
been any intimation of anything unlaw-
full here. We, of course, would not
stand for that, every man who joined
thought he was DONG the flght thlhg.
As soon as matters became apparent, in
other parts of the country in differ
ent light, the Klan here came to an
end,'' said one spokesman for the men.
How many of those named actually
took the Klan oath is not known.
Strong on Border
At this meeting the men from CaleX-
leo also stated that the Klan there will
be brought to an end. The Klan is
very strong in the border town. Here
is the list sent in by Kleagle Pitts on
February II as CaleXico officials: .
