lOnulllOns created DS luulSTa- tion, conditions that were threaten ing to strangle the American type, these conditions were elaborated by the speaker, and, his suggested cure for these evils was "one flag, one school and one language" policy for America. Tt is not matter of relig- ion or politics" he told his audience, because, 1 suggest this policy with out religious or po...lcaI preJuGlce. It is a matter Of saving America for American ideals and there is no oth- CT course. history approves this poi icy and points to II as lue only path a nation can follow
 The awakening of the puuIic con- science was named as the great hope Of solving the problems that face America today. The indifference of the native born had been the great est obstacle in the path Of the Amer icanization program, but, this indif- ference was gradually being elimina- ted and the American people as he found Il through the land, were be- ing aroused to realization of the seriousness of conditions and were taking a more healthy interest in the things that had to do with Amer !as security.
 Peace for the world would be a realization when the nations reached a common ground of understanding. The Washington Conference was The Washington Conference was cited as the first milestone along the road that would leau to better things" Genoa and Lusanne were given as two further hopes, and a world conference in Washington would be the realization in the not far distant future. The sacrifice laid down in the World war would yet bear fruit, and, in the meantime, it was the bounden duty of every loyal American citizen to cooperate with his fellow citizen, in an ellort to put III OTutT at
 The question period that followed brought out several interesting prob lens. Principal amongst these was the question of whether or not there were laws on the statute books to cover the case of men who were dis loyal in their actions anu seditious in their utterances. Captain Dancey replied that there were adequate laws to cover. but that the politi- clans did not enforce for the reason that it meant the loss of votes, in many cases.

One man is just as much entitled to his opinion in op- posing as is the man who supports Then, too, there are fanatics on both sides. The fact remains, however,

 By special request, Captain Dancey explained the situation in Oklahoma, with which he is intimately ac- quainted, He regretted the fcc. that the American press had permitted it. self to be used as tool by Governor Walton who in turn, had sought to persuade the outside world, that -e fight was between himself and the kiu Klux Kl2n.
 After detailing conditions that were revelation to the people of Wrangell conditions that he founded in fact, Captain Dancey concluded with this interpretation of the Okla homa situation:
 Tt is not fight between Walton and the Klan. The Klan is not an is sue. That is only an effort on the
 
 issue and shield some of his own per- nicious acts. Two hundred and eighty-five thousand majority against a Governor in state with a compar- atively small population, means something else. It means that loyal loyal citizens of Oklahoma have struck for the honor of their State, for law and order. for the common rights and privileges that citizen ship confers upon it. It may interest you to know that every Rotary Club. every kiwanis Club, every Commer- cial Club, every Legion Post, every church organization, every educa- tional interest, every loyal citizen of Oklahoma voted against Jack Walton because of the corruption and i'm moral practices that he employed as Governor of the State"
