UNUSUAL OUTBREAK OF PECAN
KERNEL SPOT DISEASE SERIOUS

Steps have been taken by the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture
to aid pecan growers who have suf-
fered severe losses during the past
season because of the unusual out
break. of pecan kernel spot disease.
The very finest varieties of pecans
have been attacked, particularly the
Schley. and many splendid groves,
bearing well, have shown severe loss
at harvest because of the disease.
This condition has greatly interfered
withthe marketing of the finest pc
cans just as they were coming into
bearing.
Several growers who could not fill
all their orders for the best varieties
found themselves at the critical time
with kernel-spotted nuts on hand,
which had to be cracked in order to
be graded The market for the crack
ed nuts or pecan meats is less desir-
able than that for high grade. large,
full paper-shell nuts in their natural
state.
The results of the studies made by
department specialists in connection
with this kernel disease are shortly
TO appear in the form OF bulletin.

been kept alive by what was
claimed to be the determination OF
Hopes opponents in the election
to see that the new board did moi
employ Catholic teachers for the
school term opening in the fall.
Started in School Fight.
1t is significant that the lead
ers in the fight waged against Mr.
Hope and the Catholic teachers
were the ones responsible for the
organization of the khan in AS
toria and the perpetuation of the
religious strife that has effective
ly divided the city into two hos
tile camps, extended its destruc-
tive influence into all parts of the
county and destroyed the harmon
ious cooperation of all elements in
port and other community de-
velopment enterprise that were
under way.
Ernest P. Hawkins, who oper-
ates a steamship ticket office and
collection agency, and who was
the principal agitator in the move
ment to oust Hope, is generally
credited with bringing the khan
into Astoria. With the assistance
of a few radical members of the
Masons, who had also been promi-
nently identified with the anti
Hope forces, and using Dell Moore,
an accountant of spasmodic activ-
ity, as an agitator and propagan-
dist, Hawkins gathered about him
the nucleus of what is today Pa
cific Klan No. q, Knights of the
Ku Klux Klan.
Start of Organization.
This movement started almost
simultaneously with the school
election controversy and secret
meetings attended by khan organ
izers from Portland were held in
the Masonic hall and in Hawkins
office. In the guise of an organ
ization to keep the public schools
free of church influence the propa-
ganda work was continued
throughout the summer months
and in September sufficient mem
bers had been lined up to secure
charter and Pacific Klan No. 2
was organized with Hawkins as
the cyclops.
1t was about this time that
abuses of public office by office
holders affiliated with the klan
began to appear, one of the first
instances being that of a raid by
Chief of Police e. l.. Carlson on
what he alleged to be an immoral

house and bootlegging joint, and
the arrest Of the proprietress OF
the place.
Hawkins, for some reason never
explained, was party to this raid
by Chief Carlson, who is also a
klansman, and it is alleged by the
woman in a suit still pending
against Carlson and Hawkins that
she was locked in cell with
Hawkins that night and that he
assaulted her.
Revival of Klan.
Refusal of the friends of Mr..
Hope to continue the controversy
incident to the school election and
the failure of the school board as
then constituted to give the klans-
men cause for complaint acted to
subdue the religious feeling dur
ing the fall and early winter and
retarded the growth of the khan by
Withholding fuel from it's rlres.
Conditions in Astoria had about
returned to normal by Christmas
time and the khan was fast losing
the hold ON the community that
it had secured when the Ku Klux-
ers launched their statewide po-
litical movement for the election
of a ticket headed by Senator
Charles Hall. This was in Janu-
ary, 1922, and Astoria was one of
the first communities in the state
to feel the effect of the drive for
members and political power.
With the arrival of r. l.. Saw
yer, official khan lecturer, and two
organizers from Portland, the Ku
Kluxers began a systematic cam
paign to revive the dormant reli-
gious animosities and openly pub
lish their order as the avowed en-
emy of the Catholic church. There
are practically no Jews in Astoria,
so the anti-Jewish principles of
the invisible empire were ignored
there is almost dominating
element of foreign born citizens
and many aliens in the commun-
ity, hence it is not surprising that
the klan's avowed animosity to-
ward aliens was carefully subordi-
mated.
