KHAN AND KAMEL|A
LOSE CHARTERS IN
NEW YORK RULING

ELIZABETHTOWN, n. Y, Aug,
1.-THE knights of the Ku Klux
Khan and the Kamelia are restrained
from acting as chartered and incor-
porated benevolent traternal prgani-
atoms within the confines OF New
York state under a decision handed
down by Supreme Court Justice
Staley last night.
The iurist supports the contention
of the state attorney generals office
that the incorporation certificates OF
the twin orders illegally were al
tered and falsified to give them pow
ers of a broad and indefinite scope"
The act of incorporators was held
to be "ilIegal and unauthorized" and
IAN imposition and fraud upon the
court which cannot under the re-
Quirements of the statute be toll
Grated or excused" The names of
the particular organizations in the
papers were replaced by the words
mems fraternal orders and
"women's fraternal order" before
they were filed with the secretary of
state. The change, it was held Gin
creased the organization powers
from a definite limitation OF a broad
indefinite scope"
