KHAN AIDS ENFORCEMENT
That the rum runners and bootleg
gers of Mt. Clemens and Macomb
county, Michigan, are getting desper-
ate, is indicated by the receiving OF
an anonymous note by Judge Neil E.
Reid, which contained a threat to
"get" the judge. Recent activities in
cleaning up the rat holes of vice mon
gers, in which it said the judge
took a prominent part, are said to be
the cause of the threat letter. The
advent of the Ku Klux Klan in Mt
Clemens and Macomb county has put
a different meaning behind the recent
arrests.

leans to their duty. The result was
a cleanup politically and now Ameri-
can Portestants are managing the
city's affairs for Americans. Moth
ing could more clearly illustrate the
changed conditions than an incident
which took place in the Office of the
school board recently, when beauti-
full American flag was presented to
the board and officially accepted by
the members. The occasion was one
of unusual interest. The presenta.
ton was made by an official of the
Ku Klux Khan of Youngstown, anG

unanimous action of the membership
of the board, and each member of the
board had some complimentary re.
marks to make.
