CHRISTIAN WORKER
SAYS kLAN IS NOT
WORKING RIGHT WAY

Il do not believe in secrecy. will
stand on my own feet and call a spade
spade whether it be the Ku Klux
Khan, tho Catholic church or the
Knights of Columbus" declared Sher-
wood Eddy, internationally famous
Christian worker. speaking before an
audience of 1000 people gathered at a
mass meeting of Waterville churches
at the City Opera House last evening.
Let me say said Mr.. Eddy, some
of my best friends are members of the
Ku kluN Khan. but the question is. is
the Khan doing it the right way? I
believe in free speech. / do not be-
lieve in race dictation or race supe-
riority. The constitution of the Unit
ed States says that all men are Great
cd equal. l do not believe in class
war, for | saw what it has done in Rus
STA. l will cut off my right hand be-
fore l will start a class war"
MIR. Eddy declared that the Khan has
repeatedly circulated propaganda. in
some instances through the Protestant
Sunday school children. concerning a
bogus oath that is supposed by some
to be taken by men joining the
knights of Columbus. He stated that
the X. c. never used such an oath and
this has been proven in the courts OF
America.
would Jesus stand for the circula-
tion of this fake propaganda >" said Mr..
Eddy. THE answer is no. I am in a
position to know something about tho
Khan as l have studied II in 10 states.
In closing his discussion concerning
the Kan, Mr.. Eddy stated that he was
much grieved when he returned from
Russia to find the great scandals in
the United States and the invisible en-
pirn.
The greater part of the time Mr..
Eddy related interesting instances con-
corning the work of the Christians in
the different countries which he had
recently visited. He told his audience
what it meant to be a Christian in
these countries. relating some of the
terrible conditions in central Europe
at the present time on account OF lack
of money and food. He then referred
to the meaning of being a Christian in
America.
