vention in 1924 had decided to en-
dorse Senator Watson for the nomi-
nation for the vice presidency at the
Cleveland convention, because of his
efforts to seat Senator Mayfield of
Texas.
The statement that Senator Wat
son carried a Klan card in 1924 was
made to the committee by William
NJ. Rogers, an Indianapolis Klans
man, and it later brought an emphat-
ic denial from Senator Watson, who
is recovering from injuries at an
indianapolis hospital.
Rogers said he went to see Sena-
tor Watson at Washington by direc-
ton of b. c. Stephenson. with refer
ence to obtaining job in the de-
partment of justice.
The witness explained that he had
been doing organization work in
Delaware for the Khan and that when
Watson learned this he asked for his
credentials. Rogers produced the
Imperial Khan card which he said he
showed to the senator and declared
that Senator Watson had in turn
shown him a similar card good for
1924 and 1925.
Gould you be mistaken about
that?" asked Senator Reed.
Il do not think So" Rogers replied
After announcing the closing of the
hearings, at least until after the
elections, Senator Reed said he had
no desire to do any injustice to any
person and that since the names of
both Senator Watson and Senator
Arthur r. Robinson, Republican, Ind,
had been brought into the hearings
since they testified at indianapolis
last Friday, he would receive and
make public affidavits if they desired
to make them.
An affidavit from Senator Robin
son denying that he is now or ever
was a member of the Klan was re-
ceived tonight by Senator Reed and
1t will be made a part of the COM
mittee's record. Testimony that il
was generally understood" that
Senator Robinson had been a Klans-
man was given to the committee at
Kansas City last Monday by r. B.
Bradford.
1 am not member of the Khan
nor was | ever at any time a mem
Der of that organization" Senator
Robinsons affidavit said.
