was created by the activities of the
ku-Klux Khan. the bishop said.
This Khan business is becoming
an element OF serious friction. Sus-
picion, indebtedness, bitterness
and discord are asserting themselves.
Hence harmony has been destroyed.
And the real spiritual mission of the
church has been relegated to Soc
ondary place.,
II have no criticism if a minister
chooses to belong to that organiza-
ton. That is his own affair, just
as it is his business whether he
shall belong to any other secret
order. But it must not be mixed
with the church
The bishop, who denounced the
practice Of using the pulpit to
spread propaganda, predicted short
life for the Khan.
