Va, Dec. 15-The governors confer
ence here will refuse to take stand
either on prohibition enforcement or
the Ku Klux Klan, it was definitely
decided today by leaders of the IT
state executives in attendance.
Gov. Sproul, Pennsylvania, chair
man of the conference, and other
members of the executive committee,
flatly rejected the demand of Gov.
Parker, Louisiana, that the conference
adopt resolutions on both subjects.
The KIan question caused the gov
ernors to hold a session until well
after last midnight. At this session
somewhat heated discussion broke
out because Gov. John NJ Parker, of
Louisiana, earlier in the evening had
delivered a challenge to his colleagues
to meet squarely what he called the
twin mnace of prohibition law viola
tions and the Ku Klux Klan.
Governors Morrison. North Carolina,
and Kilby, Alabama, said they agreed
with Parker in his unmeasured denun-
citation of mass action by masked men,
but did not want the impression Gre
ated that the conference agreed unani
mously with Parker's assertions that
congressional legislation should be
enacted to curb the khan Parker has
recommended laws to force filing with
the department of justice, sworn lists
of members of all secret orders, and
another to prohibit masking.
