Prominent indianapolis Democrats
today were preparing to extend
throughout the State the disavowal
of the Ku-Klux hlan, which they re
solved at a meeting Wednesday
night
? Assembled at the Elks Cub, Ma
rion County organization workers
voted unanimously to oppose pene-
tration into their group of the Khan,
following the most castigating ver-
bal barrage against the hooded or
der ever let loose in any Democratic
gathering.
The local leaders will have the
chance for State campaign against
the Khan when the State Democratic
central committee meets Jan. IL at
the Claypool.
The high lights of the resolution:
1.-THE Democrats OF Marion County,
therefore. invite all fair-minded citi-
zens, regardless Of past political af-
sfillation, to join in eliminating the
Ku-Klux Khan and it's leaders from
all political control in Marion
County. They will resist all effort
of the Khan to nominate candidates
in the Democratic primary or to con-
troll the Democratic organization"
Boom for naming Councilman Ed

chairman, next spring was started
by a number of leaders.
There also was considerable talk

Mrs. John w. Kern won hearty
applause when she said Walter My

to attack the Khan in the municipal
campaign.
The direct primary law, which
speakers said enabled the Khan
minority to operate politically, also
was a popular target.
