cause it was getting dark and
his audience was beginning to
filter out gradually. He abrupt
ly stopped just as he was getting
to the Roman Catholic phase of
his address.
To begin with, he expressed a
belief that Gov Morrison is max
ing an effort to be fair in his
attitude towards the Ku Klux,
but that in some respects he
Sympathizes with the Governor
of Kansas. However, he predict
ed that Mr.. Morrison would yet
get the light.
He stated that fhe Klan is in.
creasing throughout the nation
at the rate of from five to fifteen
thousand daily. In Pennsylvania
alone the increase is around 1000
a week.
He asserted that the order is
secret, traternal and patriotic,
devoted to race purity, solidarity
and the supremacy of native
Americans, and the social ideals
| of Protestants.
The Klan is determined that
the gates of Ellis Island shall be
shut and locked. That the Klan
had enacted the 80 immigration
law and was going to make il
12% yet. That the Klan is going
to save America from indigestion
"We don't care a rap about the
2x4 Governors who abuse US in
order to get the Jew. Catholic
and Negro vote." declared Mr.
Haywood. I'VE have undisci
plined people in our organization
and possibly foolish things are
done. Masks must not be worn
out of the lodge room without
permission of the police and per
mission from headquarters.
He displayed a letter signed by
a leader of 900 negro gunmen in
New York wherein the writer
Rockingham post-dispatch., 1922-12-20

stated that DR.. Haywood would
be shot down on sight. He said
he is the preacher in 1000 years
of Christianity to give his time
to urging the obolition of capital
punishment.
He stated that the Ku Klux is
pledged to uphold order and that
they were going to abolish lynch
ing. He said the overshadowing
question for the Government was
that of the negro. and it was
much more serious up North.
fThe negro is the inferior to the
white man, and no process can
make him the equal" He quoted
the Ency. to show that the negro
is the lowest type of ali races,
and that the average negro brain
is several ounces lighter than
that of the white man.
IF the K. K. X. is abolished
the negro will hold the balance
of power" declared DR.. Hay.

IS afraid of the question; Polite
ians are afraid to touch it. Why,
only three preachers in New
York had man enough to speak
up in my detense--Dr. Hills, DR..
Wilkin and DR.. Canon Chase"
He spoke strongly for a uniform
law forbidding the marriage be-
tween the races.
He then touched upon the
Jews-that $50 of the Movies
are controlled by them. He said
the Merchant of Venice" had
been ruled out of schools in $50
cities because the Jew is depicted
in a bad light. The Jews had
the military Manual changed
during the war because of the
reference to Christ in it. He de.
picted the political power of the
Jews, but at the same time as
sured his hearers that all Jews
do not come under this class

He then started on the Roman
Catholic subject when his audi
