OKLAHOMA CITY, Oct. 25.-News- papers and the public generally were dumbfounded at the outspokenness of Governor Walton in denouncing the Ku Klux Klan before the special ses- sion of the legislature, composed largely of adherents and friends of the Klan. He said: 'T seek enactment of an anti-Klan law to save our state from disaster through the existence of this secret organization, this all pow erful and most demoralizing super government which is undermining the very cornerstone of the foundation of our government and which is sapping the lifeblood of our citizens by it's illegal acts of terrorism. Assassins, arsonists and hooded miscreants have no place in this commonwealth of ours"

CONvUL sIONs IF NATURE
 RAISE BOTTOM OCEAN

LONDON, Oct. 25.-Discovery by a cable repair ship that the bed of the ocean in the vicinity of St. Helens has risen two miles during the last twenty years has led to a belief among sci entists that the whole southern Allan tic ocean bed is undergoing a vast submarine convulsion.
 The discovery of this strange phe- nomena was made recently when it was reported by the Eastern Cable Company that their cable between St. Helena and Capetown was broken at a spot some 800 miles north of the Cape. The cable had been laid in 1892 and had been in constant use.
 On it's arrival at the designated spot the repair ship reported to Lon don that instead of the water being 2700 fathoms, or over three statute miles in depth, as stated on the chart, it was only a little over three-quar- ters of mile deep.

AUTO DRIVERS SHOULD
 TAKE 4 RIgID TEST

DETROIT, Oct, 25.--A locomotive engineer must spend years as a wiper and fireman before he is permitted to drive an engine over a private right of-way, but any person may drive an auto down a public street used by millions of people, with no experience whatever.
 William F. Rutledge, chief of the Detroit police force, used this com parison when he urged for a rigid ex- animation of motor car drivers, and license system.
 Rutledge believes that each appli- cant should be required to demon strate control of his car, that he can drive in crowded streets and intelli- gently read all traffic signals and or dinances. Examinations by the police show that less than a third of the people driving an auto meet the re- quirements of a safe and sane driver
 Many of them know nothing at all about their car, and drive automati- cally, losing their head and control of their car in tight place. Others are a menace to the public on account of overweenfng egotism and selfshness in hogging the road and speeding.
 The chief advocates license sys- tenn, which should require every per son driving car to take at least one weeks course in an auto night school.
 There are far too many accidents from reckless driving. A man is just as dead when hit by an auto as when hit by a bullet, and in most cases it is just criminal an offense," said the chief.
