SAYS CHRIST IANSl
MUST KILL KHAN
Organized Anarchy, Woman
Church Leader Tells
Federal Council

COLUMBUS. O., Dec. 13.-The Chris
tian people OF the United States must
destroy the Ku KluX Khan.
Addressing the convention of the
Federal Council of Churches, in ses
sion here Mrs w. c. Winsborough
Of st. Louis, superintendent Of the
Women's auxiliary Of the Presbyte-
rian church in the United States
(south), declared:
1.-THE Ku Klux Khan is organized
anarchy. 1t breaks up homes, ter
rorizes communities. tortures and
Stays victims and accomplishes Its
diabolieal purposes with covered
face.
IF this monster is to be crushed
It must be done by the Christian peo-
pie of America"
Mrs Winsborough's address fol-
lowed the report submitted by j. j.
Eagan of Atlanta, Ga. chairman OF
the councils commission on race re-
lations in which he said there were
only IA lynchings in the United
States in the first six months of 1928
as compared with 30 lynchings the
first half of 1929.
Mrs WinsDorough's charges were
expected to draw fire from church
men whose denominations have in
some cases accepted gifts from the
khan.
THE evil which is today the great
est menace to inter-racial good will
is the Ku Klux Khan" said Mrs.
Winsborough.
That organization is sowing the
seeds of race hatred, lawlessness and
anarchy which If not checked will
strike at the very life OF govern
ment itself.
Were the khan only political or
ganization we might remain silent.
However, there is a moral and re-
lfqious side. which 1t would seem
cannot be overlooked by the Chris
tan people of America.
This organization combines all the
evils which the church has been de-
crying for many years. Mob violence,
in its naked reality, Is unlovely to
repel honest men, but the KAN
clothes mob law under the guise of
benefaction.
This organization is reaching It's
terrible tenacles into every state in
the union. The time for inaction has
passed"
Mrs. Winsborougn criticised the
khan for prosecuting the race, from
which our Master came"
