THE CRISIS IN OKLAHOMA

When martial law is declared
throughout one of our sovereign
states and the military takes over
all civil functions one must assume
either that a great civic crisis con-
fronts the state or its governor
has committed the supreme blum
der.
Evidence that can be adduced
from telegraphic. REPORTS tends to
suggest that a crisis does confron.
Oklahoma and that Governor Wal
ton had no alternative to martial
law il constitutional government is
to prevail in the state.
1t is not a forceful defense of
the clan to say that IT has not been
convicted OF the wholesale assaults
against life and property in open
defiance of law, committed with a
degree of brutality that borders on
barbarism. 1t cannot be denied
that these crimes are done in the
name OF the clan by men yobed in
its regalia and that they occur, al
ways, in centers that are dominat-
ed by clan influence.
Denial of responsibility avails
the clan nothing. IL the clan ex-
erted the scantest influence for law
and order, as it pretends to do, it
would run down and bring to book
the criminals who wear its robes
and assault its credit by commit
ting heinous crimes In it's name.
The clan must either accept re-
sponsibility for these ousrages OF
prove dts innocence and point out
! the guilty. Here is a defendant
that must be counted guilty until
he has proved his innocence. T..is
is true largely because the defend
ant is anonymous and his associa-
ton clandes'tine.
! The outrages continue, the clan
mocks the law and accepts the in.
ference of guilt. II the armed
forces of the state alone can put
an end to such conditions it IS hes,
| for all concerned, including the
clan, that they be emp!OYed.-Cli.
