The Herald is glad, through Ma
tional Editorial Association service,
to be able to give its readers a very
satisfactory synopsis of the Presi-
dents message to Congress on the
day it was delivered. Few people
have time to read a message of SIX
or eight columns.

President Coolidge's message,
whether you agree with all its rec
concentrations or not, has a definite,
straight from the shoulder style that
is admired by the average American.
He says what he says without too
many equivocations and qualifying
phrases.

Horrors Cannot Be Told.
A visitor to the colony, forewarn-
ed of the horror it holds, finds all OF
that horror and more that cannot be
discussed. But he finds also that the
heavy fog of gloom which once en-
yeloped the tragic, narrow stretch be
tween the sea and the towering cliffs
has been dissipated by ray OF hight
arising from the favorable results that
have attended the use OF the Dean
chaulmoogra oil specific during the
past two years in checking the raw
ages of the oldest disease in the
world. The hope that springs eternal
in the human breast is ever present
now at Molakai, even in the most adj
vanced cases. .,t

a cheerfulness that has conquered at

DANGER OF ALIEN IDEAS.

by the un-American policy of
encouraging a secret organiza-
ton, operating in the dark, wear

who do not admit membership in
the organization?"
He thought the danger Of for
eign ideas. working by secrecy
and stealth. could be met only
by secret workings of the khan.
But" he added, watch Chi

that city. If they do that, you
can forgive their methods"
Certainly they have undertaken
an army contract-to clean up
Chicago. Under Mayor Thompson
that great city has officially been
as un-American as any city could
be, and his conduct during the
war, the affront to Joffre, and
practical encouragement of dis
loyalty gives color to the young
mans statement of the astound-
ing lack of real Americanism.
But he failed to recognize that
Mayor Thompson has lost his
hold, that Americanism is being
restored, and Thompsonism is on
the "toboggan." However, il
that should be called to his at

he would say: Certainly Thomp-

"PITILESS PUBLICITY"
The Legislature of North
Carolina is taking action which
will bring the ku Klux Khan
out into the open. The plan
embraces two methods, the first
would require the names of all
it's members to be filed with the
secretary of state, open for pub
lie inspection.
This "pitiless publicity" would
put an end to secrecy, and
when every members name is
made public record we may
be sure dark deeds will not be
done under the cover of the
khan.
The other provision would pro-
hibit parades by men wearing
masks and make it unlawful for
men wearing disguise to assume
the right to take the law into
their own hands.
Such legislation If enacted by
all the States would take away

Quite a few Joined who had no

saw much lawlessness 90 un-

a few parades and the knowledge
of khan organization would work,
a la Coue, on the subconscious
mind of the lawless element, and
restore respect for law and order.
And in some communities such
evidence did have o temporary
deterrent effect.
But not q few such men later
saw how the hood and sheet and
secrecy might be used by toughs
to wreak vengeance upon their
personal enemies. They read his
tory and saw what happened after
the strong men took their hands
off in the early seventies. They
decided to help the law officers
