Replying to Reverend Cox.
COS Boulder street.

Editor World: As a regular reader Of Tho
World, and having followed to some extent the
discussions IN your public opinion column,
would like a few words In same.
or all the letters from various citizens that
! have noticed in that column, about the weak
est ana most disgusting collection OF words l
believe IS the letter OF Rev. r. Il. Cox of OKLA
homa city in your issue OF october II.
The reverend takes an awful swing at the
Wilson administration for having enforced the
espionage act during the war and as he says
mlsled the country and goes on TO call them "A
bandit bunch OF far moro dangerous traitors to
her than Benedict Arnold was the day we shot
him"
Disgusting indeed It Is that a man bearing the
tte OF Reverend, but so manifestly ignorant OF
history, should expect to influence the opinions
or enlightened persons with such chirpng.
II he will get someone to show him an Ameri-
can history he will find that Benedict Arnold
was not shot by US, but after his treachery,
entered tho British army and lived in England
many years after the Revolutionary war.
This wise man would condemn and brand
as - suppression OF our constitutional eover-
cignty' the punishment OF spies In our midst
of our country is at stake, but would doubtless
applaud the DaughCrty Injunction forbidding
citizens tho right TO assemble and discuss their
problems.
In tho Ciyil war Lincoln and the congress even
suspended tho hpbeas corpus and doubtless did
right In doing so hut OF course the reverend
probably doesn't know Of the Ciyil war.
if tho men who placed the nation az the PIN
nacle OF the worlds esteem and admiration are
and thoso In his boat are the sanity patriots
OF the country in the name Of common sense
Elve mo the leadership OF the TRAITORS"

being spread into all parts of the
world by the band leaders men. Thir-
ty-two of the master musicians who
make up the Sousa organization are
ex-service men, and nearly all are af-
filiated with the Legion. They come
from every part of the country and
saw service in every branch OF this
country's military organization dur
ing the war.
When Sousa took hold Of the Great
Lakes band it was a group of sailors,
whose right to play under him could
have come only with their enlisting
with the crowd that took 'em over"
What he did with this group of mu-
steal talent became known the country

couldn't have been learned anywhere
else, and the finer points of the mu-
sician's art are being shown to the
hundreds of Legion posts whose per-
sonnet is made up of one or more OF
the gobs who made up the largest
service band of the many brought into
being during the war.
