OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, Oct. 13.- (By Associated Press. "A statement declaring that the klan fight must go on,' and that he was glad to be free to continue the fight unham- pered," was issued here today by Aldrich Blake, former executive counsellor, who was removed last night by Gov. J. c. Walton.
 The statement declared that the former counsellor had been removed because forces over which he had no control had defeated the governors campaign against the klan with the result that other advisers of the ex ecutive "who differed on the funda- mental question of who should rule" had persuaded the governor to depose him.
 Shown a copy of Blake's signed statement, Governor Walton said:
 There's nothing the matter with that. l haven't any comment to make"
 Blake declared that with the per- sonal interest at last eliminated the path is clear and promised to carry the fight into every precinct in the state." He did not indicate his con- templated course of action, but said that after a weeks rest here, he will return to his home, in aIuckogee.

 BIake's Statement.
 Blake's statement follows: 'To the People of Oklahoma:
 Early in the primary campaign for governor of Oklahoma, l cast my fortunes with J. c. Walton. I had never met Mayor Walton but he had been elected as. the standard bearer of the farmers and laborers of the state and l had always stood pri- mariiy for their interests.
 "The Fundamental issues were eco homie and industrial just as they are today in Oklahoma and throughout the world
 "Concretely, these issues resolve themselves into this proposition: The farmer produces a ton of cabbage and receives therefor S7. The labor CTS consume. a ton of cabbage and pay SIPS for what the farmer sold for $7. The problem of expenses is to reduce the spread between ST and $19S. This purely economic ques- tion has been temporarily lost sight of in a political question which Is: Who shall rule in Oklahoma, the people, functioning through a reAre- sentative form of government or what is known as the invisible em-

PLAN OF PROFIT
 SHARING ON FORD RAILROAD GIVEN
Each EmpIoye Given Chance To Buy An Interest In
 The Business

WASHINGTON. Oct. 13.-Henry Ford's plan of profit sharing on the Detroit, Toledo and Ironton rail- road, which he bought two years ago, was fully explained in report made public by the interstate commerce commission.
 Any employe of the railroad will be permitted, under the plan, which recently was approved by the com mission. to purchase in installments out Of his wages, the company's cer- tificates of indebtedness, in denomi- nations of $1OO, $500 or $1,000 Elm tployes will be permitted to withdraw any amounts paid on the certificates at any time but the certificates can not be sold when fully paid for and can be retained only by employees of the company.
 The company will undertake to in vest the money received from it's em- ployes for additions and betterments. It must pay return upon the cer- tificates annually which will be made from a special appropriation of net earnings, according to the cor tract.
 In no event is the amount paid on the certificates to exceed 25 per cent of the net earnings of the system. and the amount will be paid only if the board of directors of the com- pany considers the action warranted.
 O o O
 Plan Is Experimental.
 In their application for commis- sion approval the Ford executives said they believed 30 per cent of the roads employees would purchase the securities. The commi ssion, in its re port remarked that while the suc- cess of the plan is speculative" 1t should be welcome as contribution t1 the solution of the problem of fix ing relations between employees and employers.
 "The world knows the ultimate sponsor of this plan as an industrial genius" the commission said. Tt may be that he can contribute some thing to the field of transportation, as some of the things he has intro- duced successfully in the field of in- dustry. It Is cur duty to encourage the experiment proposed and give 1t our sanction in so far as we are au- thorized to do so.''
 Commissioner Eastman dissented from the decision granting the per mission on the ground that the IT. nancial condition of the Detroit, Tt- ledC and Ironton did not give any guarantee of the ability of the com pany to pay a return on the savings Of it's employees.

Did Alice tell me the truth? Did desperate because he had lost the woman for whom he bought the jewels and who was willing to sell them to her as imitation pearls? Or did she know that the pearls were real, and by driving a sharp bargain with the man, ask father for the generous check which he would have to give for them at bargain prices?
 One moment l was ready to cable her and then l was afraid that someone else would get the cable, of if she answered, someone other than myself might get it. I wanted to ask my father if he knew any thing about it, but again 1 was afraid. It didn't seem to me possible that dad would have kept it all to himself that he was giving me. through Alice. d string of glorious pearls; string worth over two hundred thousand dollars.
 No. that wasn't like dad. He al- ways wanted his gifts appreciated at their proper value. notwithstand- ing he was always very generous.
 I felt 1 could never wear the jew els again. l would be afraid every minute that someone would take them from me. I knew now why il was that the man at the restaura nt table had been looking al me so tho time that Jack wanted 10 kick him. He probably was pearl con- noisseur.
 Over two hundred thousand dol lars. How foolish for one in iny po- sition to have such jewels.
