 To Crawl Out
 "I don't believe it." said Mir. Moore, ''but If it is true that the wizard can come in here and get us all in his vest pocket, l, for one, propose to crawl out.
 "I will discuss with you the political aspect of this situation. If you think this minority plank will beat a candi- nomination in this convention. You Ku Klux- Klan there is no politican in the south but who must go home and ally himself with the klan."
 In the middle west, he continued, a politician would not dare ally himself with the klan.
 Andrew c. Erwin of Athens, Ga. who followed MT. Moore, said the Ku Klux Klan was the most vital element the party had to determine.

 Erwin, who apparently was the only delegate in the Georgia delegation tc favor the denunciation of the klan stirred up demonstration he didn't expect and turned the convention into an uproar.

THE MAJORITY FLANK League of Nations 1:

League of Nations:
 'The democratic party pledges all it's energies to the outiawing of the whole war system. We refuse to believe that the wholesale slaughter of human be- 'ings on the battle field is any more necessary to man's highest development than is killing by individnals.
 'sThe only hope for world peace and for economic recovery lies in the or ganized efforts of sovereign nations CO., operating to remove the. causes of war and to substitute law and order for violence:
 "Under democratic leadership prac- dcal plan was devised under which 64 nations now are operating and which has for its fundamental purpose the free cooperation of all nations in the work peace.
 Prestige Is Injured
 ''The government of the United States for the last four years has had no foreign policy, and consequently it has delayed the restoration of the po- litical and economic agencies of the world. It has impaired our self-respect at home and injured our prestige abroad. It has curtailed our foreign markets and ruined our agricultural prices. "
 'It is of supreme importance to civil ization and to mankind that America be placed and kept on the right side of the greatest moral question of all time, and therefore the democratic party renews its declaration of con- fidence in the ideal of world peace, the League of Nations and the world court of justice as together constitut- ing the supreme effort of the states manship and religious conviction of our time to organize the world for peace. Further, the democratic party declares that 1t will be the purpose of the next administration to do all in its power to secure for our country that moral leadership in the family of na- tions which, in the providence of God, has been 50 clearly marked out for it.
 Referendum Proposed
 There is no substitute for the League of Nations as an agency work ing for peace; therefore, we believe that, in the interest of permanent peace, and in the lifting of the great burdens of war from the backs of the people and in order to establish a permanent policy on these supreme questions, not subject to change with changing of party administration, it is desirable, wise and necessary to lift this question out of the party politics and to that end to take the sense of the American people at referendum cleo ton, advisory to the government, to be held officially under act of Congress, free from all ether questions and can

Massachusetts and Delaware were grouped around there.
 Still the Georgia delegates remained in their seats and refused to rise. The men from other delegations carried Erwin around the hall. Then the band played the. "Etar-Spangled Banner" bringing everyone to attention and the convention went back to business again.
 During the demonstration Tom Tag gart prevented the Indiana banner from going into the demonstration. Jared Sanders of Hammond, La, were the next speaker.
 Conditions In Louisiana,
 "In Louisiana," he said, i've already have gone through what democrats here are going through. We had the bigot and the zealot. We had the honest and the dishonest. We had in our com paign men who sought to capitalize the klan and men who sought to capitalize anti-klan. But when a candidate, took the field appealing to race and religion backed by the city and state govern ment and practically every newspaper in Louisiana, there were some of us who thought that above anti-klan there was true Americanism. And a candi- date ran on the principles of religious freedom and de0ency and drew the line on no order of any description, sub hitting his candidacy to the tolerant men and women of Louisiana.
 Not A Coward
 ''You may call me coward if you i will, but there's nothing in my life to justify the charge. But I'd rather have the an6thema of these misguided demo- crats than have to answer on the tudg- ment day for trust disregRrded. Any. body can fight the Ku Klux Kan but only the dsmocratic party can stand between the common people and their oppregsors in this land. Beside that I'm not willing to bring diseOrd Ato my party"
 As usual, MT. Bryan talked about his gratitude to the party and the Christian religion. He paraphrased his feelings for the party on the lines of ''woodmanship that they are" Partisan spare the. party, he paraphrased while the audience laughed.
 Religion is mora important than politics" said Bryan, unable to resist the temptation to deliver a bit of a sermon. What the country needs. is to get back to God"
 For several minutes Mir. Bryan treat ed the audience to some of the best DOT | dons of his celebrated lectures to bear which one generally buys ticket.

 Utter Rubbist''
 .'Such reports are utter rubbish" Mir Roosevelt said.
 ..I consider the dissimenation an un' friendly act. Those who have swung into our columns have done 50 entirely of their own accord and moreover they understand that the pledges were ac cepted only on condition that they would. stay with tis to the end"

SALMON FIELDS
| ARE CLOSELY
| GUARDED
500 Permits Will Be Issued for
Fishing in Alaska This
Year.

About 500 permits for salmon fish.
ing in Alaska will be issued by the
Bureau of Fisheries this season.
Commissioner Henry O'Malley an
nounced today.
Ninety-three permits to large
packers already have been granted
through the Department Of Com
merce. Permits to small local fish
ermen will be issued when wardens
of the Bureau of Fisheries tour the
Alaskan peninsula within the next
few weeks.
Close Watch to Be Kept.
Owing to Federal grand Jury re-
ports in Alaska last summer indi-
eating that a low class of orientals
and other foreigners were imported
to the Alaskan fishing fields at the
opening of the canning seasons,
carrying with them considerable IL
quor and narcotics, a close watch
on outgoing vessels is to be main
tanned by the United States Gus
toms service, according to informa-
ton at the Treasury.
1t was stated that customs Off
Gals at San Francisco, Seattle, and
other Pacific ports will make a
close inspection of vessels carrying
laborers to the canning fields in
April and May.
O'Mhlley said that probably 5000
men would be taken to the fishing
fields from the United States. In
addition, about $4,000 natives will
be employed by the canneries.
Heavy restrictions have been put
on the salmon catch because of the
threatened extinction of the fish.
In the important Cooks Inlet dis
trict the authorized fishing gear
has been reduced so per cent from
last season. In all restricted fields
only so per cent of the available
fish may be taken, the remainder
being permitted to reach the spawn
ing fields.
New Fields Opened.
OMalley announced that two new
canneries at the end Of the Alaskan
peninsula would be constructed and
that some virgin fishing fields
would be opened in the neighbor-
hood Of Isenback bay. The total in
vestment in the fishing district will
be approximately 100000 this
season with a pack of $50, 900
estimated value expected.
Commissioner O'Malley declared
that salmon fishing at southeastern
Alaska, which is not under Govern
ment regulation is endangered.
He said that Government reports
indicate there will be intensive fish.
ing in that section this season. The
catch In southeastern Alaska is un-
restricted. excepting in rivers and
within 500 yards Of their mouths.

SCHOOL CADETS
HIT BY BOARD
RULING
POSTGRADUATE Students Are
Denied Right to Hold
Commissions.

The Board of Education ruled last
night that postgraduate students in
the high schools shall not hold COM
missions in the High School Cadet
Corps. The ruling followed action
taken by the high school principals
several weeks ago, in which it was
pointed out that, as postgraduate
students were not subject to the
dictates Of the principals as were
the other students. they should not
hold commissions.
The effect Of this ruling will be
to prevent February graduates from
holding their commissions through
to the competitive drill in May.
February graduates have been won't
to keep their commissions by taking
postgraduate work upon graduation
and the ruling Of the board will stop
this practice.
A great amount of routine work
was accomplished at the meeting OF
the School Board. The well-oiled
machinery got working in good or
der soon after convenihg, and Presi.
dent James T. Lloyd rapidly worked
through a mass of business. The
disputes that have previously been
the rule on the board were totally
absent.
The board voted to allow the Co
lumbia Junior High School Parent
Teacher Association to donate two
cups for athletic prowess in that
school. 1t also voted to give the
National Education Association use
of the Central High School audi
forum for a convention hall. A
notice from the association said that
5000 teachers are expected to at
tend the meetings.
Figures given the board by DIR.
Frank w. Ballou, superintendent of
schools, show slight increase in
the number of students this year as
compared with last. There are
1886 pupils in the public schools,
which is an increase of about 100.

BLUE SKY DUE TO SHELL
AROUND AIR, NEW THEORY

COPENHAGEN, March 20.-A
new solution Of the old question.
why is the sky blue?" is offered
by Prof. Vigard, Of Christiania Uni
versity, who announces that he has
made a discovery which suggests
that the atmosphere of the earth
outside the air-stratum is shut up
as If in balloon whose wall is a
solid mass of crystalline particles of
nitrogen.
According to the professor, this
wall is what gives the sky its blue
color and stops wireless telegraph
