Senator Walsh wrote the Attorney General last week enclosing letters received from two correspondents one urging that the federal govern ment proceed against the klan under Section 19 of the penal code making 1t violation of law for any persons to conspire to deprive any person of certain rights guaranteed under the federal constitution and the other detailing a number of outrages al- legged to have been committed in Texas under the direction of the k1an.
 Mir. Daugherty. in acknowledging receipt of the correspondence said:
 q have not been able to find a single set of facts which come within the four corners of Section t9 of the penal code as interpreted by the courts.
 Casual examination of the cases under this section will demonstrate this. The rights and privileges re- ferred to, in Section 19. according to the coufts interpretation of it, are substantially those denominated in the Fourteenth amendment

Fall to States

Your correspondent who thinks the activity of the flu Klux Klan falls within the policy of the prose cution of the l. W. w, is far afield. in that the defendants in the I. W. W. cases were prosecuted for a con- spiracy under Section 37 of the penal code which denounces a conspiracy to do some criminal act which is in violation of some statute of the United States. other than Section 37.
 The so-called war legislation created certain offenses Section S7 was invoked to prosecute con spiracy to violate those war acts. The tar and feather parties; assaults, homicides, etc, which you describe in your letter fall within the police power of the several states and the United States government has ab- solutely no Jurisdiction in such mat ters."
 The Attorney General concluded by saying that if any statement of facts came to the attention of this department which gives the federal government Jurisdiction of any of lenses committed by the Ku Klux klan, or any other organization. 1t will be prosecuted vigorously"

The fact that four crowns rest upon

to rate her among the best mermaids

when It is taken into consideration the
number OF trophies collected and the
