AT KEITH'S LYRIC

Birmingham will have to wait A long time before seeing better bill than the one which closes at the Lyric tonight, so critics say, and patrons of the the- ater beautiful are warned that there are only three more performances by these five aces of big-time Keith valude- vile. The headliner is offered by Primrose Semon, Arthur Conrad and company under the title of "Musiconi- calities," and a more diverting combi- nation of good things would be hard to find.
 The added attraction is the famous "Jazz Circus" of Dan Sherman. Mabel DeEorrest and company, vaudeville en- tertaincrs of the finest and warm fa- vorites. Music is the thing in the special feature, Vera Walton and Or vile Rennie offering Now and Then" a collection of old and new songs. How ard and Earls Four Dancing Daisies and Eddie Gaffney and Tess Walton in Meat, the Wife" round out the bill.

COTTON LETTERS

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-The market has been very quiet and dull all day long, which is quite natural in the fact Of the report which will be issued tomorrow by the government showing the condi- tion, indicated crop and ginning up to October 1.

Advices from England indicate that there is an excellent chance of the conservative party winning in the gen eral election which will take place if the present government falls through.

NEW ORLEANS, oct. 7.-Cotton val ues moved but little today but averaged 10 or 15 points over Mondays finals. It sold 9 points higher in the late trad ing and held most of it. Trading was mostly of an evening up characted in preparation for the bureau report We'd nesday, with shorts doing most of 1t. Outlook for generally unsettled wealth CT, possibility of another storm devel- oping in the gulf and of cold weather towards the end of the week added to the uncertainty over the bureau, made shorts nervous and induced a good many of them to cover. General ex- pectations is that the government will make . substantial reduction from it's last forecast owing to the large amount of abandoned acreage, short staple, re- cent bad weather in the east and dis appointing ginning returns from coun- ties that have about finished picking and ginning. An estimate of 12,300,000 or under will be construed as bullish. Government reports are proverbially un- certain but all the information avail able indicates this one should be buIlish. -Fenner & Beane to Kahn & Virgin.

Nj. +. Church

PITTSBURG, KAN. April T.
Bitter denunciation of the Crawford
county newspapers to mention re-
cent contribution of the local Klan
to the Girard A. NJ. E. church is con-
tanned in a statement issued by a
member of the congregation. The
statement contains praise for the
work of the Ku Klux Klan in aid
ing law enforcement and assisting in
making better citizens.
The statement, in part: Some of
US think that it is because these pa
pers are opposed to the great Ameri-
can organization, which is composed
of native born, 100 per cent Ameri-
cans. But allow me to add that here
is one colored person who, were he
white, would be knocking at the door
of the Klan, for the klan is the saw
Jour of America and American prin-
cipies. But what / want you to tell
the world is that these klansmen
gave our church 500, which we were
in need of and which we very much
appreciate. So allow me to add that
any organization that is for the Prot
estant church, whether it's members
be white or black, is the organization

The Rising Tide of Aliens
CThe Chicago HeraId.Examiner)

The Brooklyn Eagle, published in
a city with the largest alien popula-
tion in the United States, prints an
editorial announcing that the John
son immigration bill is dead, and re-
joicing therefor. In support of it's
contention that bitterness aroused by
the discriminatory feature of the
Johnson bill is slowly gaining ground,
it cites a recent indignation meeting
called against the bill, and asserts
that Catholics, Protestants, and Jews
joined in assailing it. The paper also
cites the fact that Secretary Hughes
is against the measure, because it
will irritate Japan"
1t would be difficult to find better
arguments in favor of the johnson
bill than those offered by the Eagle
against it. 1t bases opposition to
the measure on religious grounds
when it asserts that Catholics, Pro-
testants and Jews join in protest
against it. That is an attempt to
arouse religious prejudice against a
measure which has properly nothing
of religious or anti-religious charac-
ter about it.
0 The johnson bill is designed to keep
America American; not to keep it
Catholic, Protestant, or Jewish, or a
combination of the three. 1t is not
designed to keep out Catholics, Pro-
testants or Jews because they are
such, but to keep out alien minded
peoples, of whatever religion, who
seek to colonize in American cities
in greater numers than we can as
simulate. The opposition cited is
wrong and proves the wisdom of the
restrictive bill because it reveals
that the interest of the opponents is
in the foreign peoples who would be
barred by the measure, rather than
in the American people who would be
protected by it.
The same is true of the fact that
Secretary Hughes opposes it because
it would irritate the Japanese. The
interest of the American people
ought to be in America, not in ia
pan.
1t is true that opposition to the
bill is gaining ground. II is doing
so because the foreign element in
this country is organized and fight
ing with all manner of propaganda
to defeat the restriction and let in
hordes of aliens. The fact that this
foreign minded propaganda within
America can threaten the bill ought
to convince patriotic Americans that
such a defense measure must be
passed,

SENATE LAND FRAUDS

Bureau OF Publication and Education)

(Bureau OF Publication and Education
WASHINGTON, d. c., April T.
The senate committee investigating
the Texas cases of alleged land
frauds in the Rio Grande valley in
the Lone Star state is getting it's
breath for few days, having ad-
journed until next week And
there is a lull in the storm in which
Senator Hefin, of Alabama and 9TH
ers are trying to convict K. B. Crea-
ger and the Almo Land and Sugar
company.
In the meantime the committee is
making an effort to subpoena all tele-
grams from Washington by Mr.. Crea-
ger, or by his attorney, George Hill,
to any land companies or others in
Texas since December l.
Chairman Moses directed that a
report submitted by Postal Inspector
o. B. Williamson, who looked into
the fraud charges, be printed as a
confidential document.
Senator Hefiin is going to take an
other try at it next week before
pressing in the senate to ask for a
new committee to hold these hear
ings. He claims that the chairman,
Senator Moses, of New Hampshire, is
unfair and is charging that Moses is
assisting his friend Creager in every
way he possibly can.

FEDERAL GRAND Jury
OPPOSES Immigration
Toledo Body Asks Congress to
Pass Bill-Many Aliens
Before Court
tBureau Of Publication and EducatIon)

(Bureau Of Publication and Education)
WASHINGTON, ID. c., March 2S.-
Only the other day the federal grand
jury at Toledo, Ohio, sitting for the
northern division of Ohio, western
part, urged congress to further re-
strict immigration, appalled, by the
large number of alien foreign born
offenders hailed before it. Among
other things the twenty members of
the jury from twenty different cities
and towns in Ohio declared in a
memorial to congress complained as
follows:
I'VE members Of the federal grand
jury are required by law to hear and
investigate alleged crimes in the
northern district Of Ohio; and in 80
doing are compelled to leave peace
ful pursuits and our homes, only to
find that a large majority Of such
charges are brought against the
foreign element; we are shocked by
the number, quality and character
Of foreign defendants, charged with
disobedience to our laws and our in
stitutions; we urge congress to act
properly and promptly in bringing
relief. The conditions compel us to
urge congress, the guardians of our
portals, to protect our country and
our flag"
The memorial was signed by j. w.
Bauting, of Toledo; Henry A. Mack
of Lima; F.. E. Dustman of Van Vert;
and the other II members of the
grand jury.
And yet Congressman Mooney, of
Cleveland, says it is unfair to re-
strict immigration. Even so big a
statesman as Congressman Theodore
Burton declares he won't do it be-
cause it might offend the japanese.
This surely is a time for all 100
per cent Americans to act. If men
like Mooney and Burton won't vote
for America and for American wages
and standards, for bread and meat
for red-blooded Americ ans and their
families, for perpetuating this rich
heritage of ours, it is high time that
all the American voters in Cleveland
were getting together and voting for
men who will.
Look at the Figures
Our existing immigration laws do
not keep the riff raft out. They do
not keep out the epileptics, alien in
sane and criminal classes. Take q
look. During the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1923, 673,406 aliens entered
this country; during the last six
months of 1923, 5S5, ,199 aliens got in.
1t is impossible for our inspectors
and examiners to weed out these
dangerous aliens with such a large
number to handle. They can't do it
because it is physically impossible to
Go so.

Public Opinion

Public opinion is powerful force.
1t makes presidents and unmakes
them, drives cabinet members fuming
into retirement, makes policies stick
or wrecks them, makes laws enforce
that there is such a vast amount of
propaganda in the world-everybody
is trying to make the public believe
something or other-and the only safe
safe thing is for the public to be
thoroughly informed; for usually
when the public knows all about both
sides of question it will decide right
ly. The only method of constant ap-
proach to the public is through the
daily newspaper. The magazine that
tries to teach, to advise, reaches him
every day. 1t speaks to more people
than all the other professions COM
bined, and it speaks much oftener.
There is hardly person who is as
much as ten years old in Savannah
who does not read part, at least, of a
newspaper every day-and that is al
most true of the whole of Georgia,
and the whole Of the country.
Newspapers therefore have to be
careful to avoid being "sed" Propa-
ganda approaches them from many
directions, in many DISCUSSES; they
endeavor to give both sides of all
questions to their readers-and some
times they are criticised for that; and
at the same time they endeavor to
avoid having propaganda appear as
news. A newspaper that leans to one
political party should not on that ac-
count treat the opposite party as if 1t
did not exist. The public has right
to make up it's mind on public ques-
tions, and it therefore has the right
to be properly informed so that it
can properly make up it's mind; it
must be so informed by its newspa-
pers. The newspaper on that account
has public duty to perform that
probably has no equal in importance
the duty of informing the public
so that public opinion may be formed
knowing all the time that it is pub
lie opinion that makes for retrogres-
sion or for progress. The better the
public opinion, the saner and the wis
err, then the greater will be the prog
ress; and the converse is true.-Sa-
vannah News.

KLANS TO
MEET At ROCKFORD
Celebration Will BE Largest Ever
Held in Middle West, Says
Announcement

CHICAGO. ILL, April 7.-Illi-
nois Klandom will concentrate it's
efforts in making the three-day cele-
bration at Rockford, July 3, and 5,
the biggest demonstration of Ameri-
canism ever staged in the middle
west, according to an announcement
from the headquarters of the Grand
Dragon of the Realm.
Early announcement of the affair is
made so that no other Illinois city
will make plans for ku Klux de-
monstratiOn on the nations birth
day.
Klansmen, through the Realm, are
invited to participate in making the
Rockford affair success. That city's
wonderful demonstration last year
proves the ability of it's Klansmen to
plan and carry out stupendous al
fairs.
While the details of the three-day
program are not to be given out this
far in advance, it is known that a
great merchants and manufac turers'
exposition will be a feature that will
bring extensive exhibits to Rockford
and give firms and individuals an OPP
portunity to display their products
to the scores of thousands of visitors
who will be in attendance.
Pageants, novel entertainment
features, initiation ceremonies, fire
works display, patriotic addresses and
parades will be on the program.

Anti Prohibition
Con8ressmen from
Alien Districts

Ninety per cent of the congress
men who have introduced bills to null
lily the constitution OF the United
States by permitting the sale Of wine
and beer, represent congressional
districts which have been submerged
under the alien tide. Many of them
are themselves in close association
with alien or unassimilated groups.
We are importing constituents by the
hundred thousand annually for con-
gressmen Of this type. If we keep it
up, in . certain number Of years the
men in congress who represent Amer
ican sentiment will find themselves
in the minority. At present, America
may we'll rejoice that the congress
men loyal to the spirit of the consti-
tuition outnumber those who have in
troduced beer bills by approximately
9 to /. We call the attention of the
dry congressman to the fact that by
passing q proper immigration bill
they can restrict the growth Of the
anti-constitutional groups.
