HUNTERS ATTACK
GROUP OF ACTORS

Cliff Smith, producer of Western
Hearts, the feature attraction at the
Liberty theatre Thursday and Friday
sent Josie Sedgwick, Art Station and
his company far into the hills for ex-
teriors. In one of the big scenes, the
script called for smoke to come from
a hole that led to an underground
passage.
Everything was set and the prop
erty boys made the fire roar as di-
rected. Station and his company were
lowering one another into the smoke
filled opening and Miss Sedgwick
waited their appearance at the bot
tom of the cave.
Camera called Mr.. Smith. No
sooner had the cranks been started
when six men with their Winches-
tiers drawn made their appearance.
The leader of the gang soon made
known his request. "We've been on
your trail a long, long time," he said,
land now we know where all of this
moonshine is coming from" Expla-
nations would not go and it was
necessary to allow the six men to de-
scend into the cave and allow Miss
Sedgwick to prove to them that il
there was any moonshine in the
country, the company did not know
of it, The revenue men remained as
Mr.. Smiths guests for two days.

Ku.Klu Klan was called to order to-
day. The meeting will last three days.
Secrecy wells the proceedings and
only meager reports are being given
out as to the business transacted. 1t
was announced, however, that nearly
1000 chapters of the order are repre-
sented here, and every section has It's
delegates.
Although no announcement has been
made, it Is understood that important
developments In the states of New
York, Louisiana and Kansas will be
considered and that steps to combat
klan opposition will be discussed.
Coming on the heels Of Mayor Hy-
lan's order to clear the order out in
New York, the Khan custer proceedings
in Kansas, and Governor Parker's visit
to Washington to see the President on
the situation in Louisiana. the sugges-
tion of Senator Walsh that the Presi-
dent issue an order for the Klan to dis
band has caused great perturbation
here. In addition to these troubles the
Klan Is almost hopelessly involved, it
would appear, in the local courts where
tangfe Of litigations remain to be set
tied. However, In all probability the
Klan will maintain its policy Of Sc
CIScy. AI 1S CSGCilEs however, CnaC bHe
order will fight to the end any effort
TO disband II or drive 1t out Of any
state, holding that It ia legally char
tered and has the legal right ooper-
ate in every state in the Union. An ad-
dress delivered Monday afternoon by
Imperial Wizard W. j. Simmons was
the chief feature of the first days pro-
gram.
This is the first regular meeting of
the Imperial Klanvocation, or supreme
governing body of the organization, al
though a provisional meeting Of this
body was held last spring, in Atlanta.
Sessions are being held in a pavilion
on the grounds recently acquired by
the order for the establishment Of the
great American University on Howells
Mil Road.
The chief topics to be discussed at
this session relate to the business af-
fairs of the reorganized order, it was
stated at the Imperial Palace, general
office headquarters Of the organization.
New-York tribune., 1922-11-28

within the last two days I have been
called on by influential members Of
Calvary Baptist Church, They have
assured me tina. when my activities
are brought into question, If they are,
= shall be afforded opportunity to
speak in my own behalf
DR.. Haywood sought to correct an Inn
preston that the Khan is making spe-
cial drive in New York City. He said
the activity of Ku-Klux organizers in
New York City is no greater now than
it has heen for a long period. News
paper publicity following the distrlbu-
tion of circulars in Calvary Baptist
Church, attacking the organization, had
created the impression of a special
drive for membership.
"The fact is" he added, 1--WE have
more than we can do to care for volun-
tary joiners. The membership In New
York State, already large, is being
added to so rapidly that the mere task
of registration is taxing our resources"
In refutation of assertions that the
Klan favors lynching to punish certain
crimes, the evangelist said he had
worked assiduously since 1877, when he
resigned his New York pastorate, TO
bring about abolition of capital punish
ment in the United States.
Capital punishment is crime
against humanity" said DR.. Haywood.
81 have spoken for It's abolition In Atty
cities. / am continuing this work. AS
direct result of my efforts movements
are progressing in georgia and North
Carolina for abolition of the death
penalty. I am the only Christian min
lister since the dawn of Christianity
who has devoted large part of his
time to this object. My lectures against
legal killing began long before ] was
in any manner associated with the
Klan. The work have done in that
direction has had no connection with
the organization.
"This ought to be sufficient refuta-
tion Of the chrge that the khan stands
for lynch law"
Referring to letters received yester-
day by the Board of Education Of Pat
erson, n. j., protesting against re-
newal of German instruction in public
schools there, signed "Royal Riders Of
the Red Robe" and "Betsy Ross Coun-
ell, Ladies of the Invisible EMPIRE" the
evangelist declared neither of these or
ganizations was connected with the
khan, which has no feminine auxiliaries.

AGAINST SMALL CARDS.
Postoffice Department Says They Slow
UP Mails.

Washington, ID. G., Oct. 24.AA cam
paign to discourage the use Of small
sized Christmas cards and envelopes
has been inaugnrated by the postofiice
department. Small-sized cards and en-
yelopes, it is declared, are responsible
for incalculable delay during the
Christmas rush Of postal business. Be
cause Of their miniature size they can
not be run through the cancelling ma
chimes, making It necessary to do this
work by hand as weit as requiring ex-
ira handling in facing and distribu-
tion.
Obliteration of addresses through
cancellation mark and inability of pos
tai workers to tie the cards and greet
ings in packages with the larger sized
mail securely is another source of de-
lay and trouble.
The postofiice department has fixed
the smallest size OF Christmas greet
ings and cards which can be conye-
niently sent through the mails at two
and tfree-quarters by four inches.
