Declaring that he feared for his
safety while travelling overland in the
vicinity of San Antonio since alleged
threats were made against him at
Nixon. Tex, last Friday night, Erwin
Van Dyke, aspiano and organ expert,
appealed TO the Bexar county sher-
ifs office Monday morning for pro-
lection. Van Dyke requested that
a special deputy sheriff's commission
be issued TO him by Sheriff jim
Stevens in order that he might carry
a gun. Chief Deputy Alphonse New
ton Jr, explained to Van Dyke that
such a commission could not be is
sued, as he was not drawing a salary
from the county of $40 or more per
month, as required by law. and that
il he were given special commission,
il would be no good outside Bexar
county.
Van Dyke was threatened last FRI
day night Mt Nixon, Tex. he told the
chief deputy sheriff, after he had
made remark about the khan. Dur
ing conversation at a boarding house
supper table, he said, he had express
ed approval of the action of Gov
ernor Walton of Oklahoma in sup
pressing khan activities and had re-
marked that he would even approve
of the governors using machine guns
if necessary.
They Would "Get Him."
This remark, Van Dyke told the
chief deputy, was resented by a man
at the table with him who asserted
that there are good men among the
khan. Van Dyke told the chief deputy
that he questioned this assertion by
asking why, if they were good, they
did in the dark.
Later on. Van Dyke told Chief
Deputy Newton, he was called from
his boarding house. taken in an auto
mobile by a number of men, closely
questioned and then told 10 leave
town. No violence was offered at
the time he said. though the men
threatened that If he told newspapers
what had happened they would get
him. He returned TO San Antonio.

Van Dyke said that he had intend

day and he had delayed in the hope
that be could get his deputy's COM
mission. He had no fear in the day
time. he said. but was apprehensive
lest he might be attacked at night.
Chief Deputy Newton suggested
that Van Dyke appeal to United
States Marshal ID. A. Walker who
might be able to deputize him or of
fer him the protection of the federal
law. Van Dyke left the sheriff's Of
