.BAYONETS IN KHAN

Civil Var Looms In Oklahoma Unless
Legislature Curhs ku klux
Activities

Oklahoma City, Okla. = Anti-ku
Klux Klan measures underwent bat
terry of fiery assault and loyal defense
in the Oklahoma senate without an
agreement being reached on as much
as one section of the bill, which the
senate hopes to present to the lower
house.
With several bills before the house,
all seeking the same end and virtually
every senator with an idea as to neces-
sary provisions for an anti-klan act,
the senate decided to dissect its com
mittee substitute measure section by
section and by incorporating features
of various bills to evoke measure
which will unmask the klan in Okla
homa and make public its membership
lists.
The argument went no farther than
section one of the measure, which
would compel all secret societies in the
state to file with authorities in each
county the names and addresses of
their officers and members.
A plea for a measure with teeth,
not mush and milk" found many ar
dent supporters.
A prediction that civil war would
come in Oklahoma if the khan Is not
unmasked was made by Senator Frye,
who declared he had been informed

OPPOSE RATIFICATION
TURK LAUSANNE PACT
Gerard Heads Organized Movement
To Prevent Sacrifice American
Rights and Ideals

New York.-An organized move
ment to frustrate ratification of the
Lausanne treaty by the United States
senate is being made by a group of
Influential Americans, headed by
| James w. Gerard, former ambassador
| to Germany and now chairman Of the
American Committee for the Independ-
ence of Armenia. A memorandum
| signed by 100 statesmen, high army
editors and foreign relief workers, will
be presented to President Coolidge,
Secretary of State Hughes and indi-
vidual senators before whom the
treaty will come for ratification at the
Forthcoming session of congress.
The document charges that the state
departments ENJOYS at Lausanne sac
rificed to Mustpha Kemal, the rights
of American citizens in Turkey, and
threw overheard the Armenian people
whom this country pledged to protect
in exchange for the Chester conces-
sions to few American business men

ut is morally an indefensible
treaty." says the memorandum. 'It is
an utterly humiliating and purposeless
treaty. 1t surrenders every American
right in Turkey. 1t renders impossible,
the continuance of American educa--
tfonal and philanthropic enterprises in
that country. 1t ignores our solemn
pledge to Armenia
"The economic concessions it pur--
ports to secure for few Americans
are now admitted to be of dubious
value and have already been trans
ferred into alien hands.
''The Turks have broken, thus early,
their promises of good behavior and
their guarantees to our missionaries
and to the remnants of Christians in
Turkey. All reports which have re-
Gently reached the outside world from
Turkish and foreign sources show that
factional armed conflicts, widespread
banditry and hopeless economic chaos
seriously threaten Kemal's regime, and
the task which confronts this govern
ment is according to the admission of
its own leaders, a truly impossible one.

PO|NCARE UPHELD
BY FRENCH PEOPLE.
CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES VOTES
CONFIDENCE IN POUND OF
FLESH POLICY
SLAM At U. S. AND BRITAIN
French viii Not Wait On Pleasures
Of Allies Who Reject Compact
For Backing Them

Paris.-The French parliament, by
one of the most sweeping votes OF
confidence in its history, has approved
the policy of the government of Pre-
mier Poincare in the recent negotia-
tions in the council of ambassadors
with regard to Germany.
The chamber gave the premier carte
blanche to execute his program for
further forcible action in enforcing
complete execution of the Versailles
treaty for the protection of Frances
national interests and security in ac-
cord with the allies, if possible, but
alone if he must The vote was sos
to 70
Premier Poincare, in an address to
the chamber, did not finch in his at
titude of stern determination to force
the chamber Immediately to proclaim
either its approval or disapproval of
his policy. His words seemed to re-
move the smouldering discomfort ex-
pressed by deputies in the lobbies of
the chamber during the past week at
what was termed the premier's retreat
before Great Britain's viewpoint with
regard to the demands to be made
upon Germany.
The premier declared that France
would act against Germany with or
without the allies If her security was
menaced; that France was ready to
face rupture with the entente if this
became necessary to project herself.
Germany, he added, would be punished
If she did not enable the interallied
military control commission to watch
German armament and If she did not
pay indemnity for the attack on mem
bers of control commission in Leipsic.
M. Poncare declared that the failure
of the United States and Great Britain
to ratify the guarantee pact was at the |
bottom of the present trouble with re-
gard to the military control commits |
sion. He placed the responsibility for |
the lack of penalties in the ambassa
doris notes to Germany upon Great |
Britain, but declared France would not |
wait on the pleasure of the allies be- |
fore acting when her security was |
menaced.
