Following the killing of Coburn, Klan leader, by the editor of a Klan paper, peace warrants were issued for the arrest of Dr. Evans, Imperial Wizard; H. K. Ramsey, Klan- graph; Brown Harwood, Klazik and T. J. McKinnon, Klan officer.
 The complaints on which the war rants were isisued were made by Dr. Fred B. Johnson, and William Joseph Simmons, a former member of the Klan. The men swore that plans had been made to kill Johnson, Simmons and Clark. Johnson later admitted these statements came from Fox, the murderer of Coburn, who claimed he was only getting the jump on the men planning to kill him.
 The warrants were dismissed later against all officers except Imperial Wizard Evans, when Johnson failed to appear.

MORE CRAVKS n
 NILE IN A|MER|CA
 THAN MY COUNTRY

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Israel Zang, vii, speaking before the League oi Political Education this week on what he thought of America, said there are more cranks to the square mile here than any other country in the world. He said there was more honor and justice and dignity in England than in America. He declared the Ku Klux klan to be a sort of exaggerated Boy Scout movement which would soon be laughed out of existence. Everything in America is less efficient than in England.
 ''The mails, press, railroads and your Central Park are disgrace to Americans who think without acting and act without thinking. They have no sense of shame, young girls show ing their bare legs and breasts in pub lie with more depravity than exists on the stage. American Sunday papers weigh four pounds and have nothing in them. Americans would be far bet ter off to read the Bible and Shakes peare America has the best educated people in the world and yet is a land of make-believe. While America isn't the greatest country in Gods earth it has the greatest potentialities and if America goes wrong the last hope of civilization has gone," said the visitor.
 Otherwise he found the country all right.

SHIELDS FLAYS DRY
LEAGUE MORAL|sTS
''Insidious Propaganda" Bit
terly Denounced by Sena-
tor From Tennessee.

Pleading for strictest enforce
ment of law, Senator Shields
Dem) of Tennessee, in the Sem
ate late yesterday charged that
when we get rid of these pro-
fessional moralists and private dry
agencies the prohibition law then,
and only then, can be rigidly en-
forced"
Shields was particularly bitter
in his denunciation of the Anti
Saloon League and the "insidious
propaganda being circulated by dry
organizations, charging many en-
forcement officers themselves are
lawbreakers.
He deprecated the growth of the
illegal booze traffic throughout the
United States.
There never was an aristocracy
of bootleggers until the Volstead law
was passed, and now we have boot
leggers all over the country being
made millionaires almost over
night" he said.
Shields urged that enforcement
officers be placed under the civil
service, and that these paid dry
artists of private organizations, all
receiving fabulous salaries, be
driven out of power"
