THE KHAN RIDES AGAIN

The Ku Klux Klan rides again, and, it is assumed, at ten dollars per ride That used to be the going rate back in the fore part of the POS when it was quite a passing fade to hood and play boogy man Imperial Wizard Evans claims that few years following the World War, the Klan boasted member ship of l500000 At ten dollars apiece that is nice business, if you get it. Now, it appears, the Knights of the nighshrt propose to ride again aided and abetted by some of the members of Congress who do not like the appointment of Justice Hugo Black to the Supreme Court.
 Until the recent appointment of former Senator Black to the highest bench most of the nation had forgotten there was such a thing, as the Kan. It it probably safe to assume that most of those who had paid their ten dollars membership fee at some time another had forgotten it too. But in order to defeat the appointment of Black to the bench, some of the venerable Senators got busy and dug up what they purport to be fact that Judge Black at one time member of the Kan. As the idea took hold this thought extended to the point that it

One of a class numbering Al stu dents, Albert Uberti son of Emil Uberti of Douglas, completed his high school course at the Ballard high school this summer The school annual titled the "Nordic Number of the Shingle," recently received by his father. shows to good advantage the many diversified interests con- current with attendance at that institution.
 That Albert is held in the high est esteem by his classmates is shown by the inspiring words of praise and devotion which his fellow students have inscribed on the pages of the annual The hook itself refers to him with the following description.

is charged that he is life member of the hooded organization
 We have idea whether Judge Black paid his ten dollars at time other for Klan member ship or not great many people did and shortly thereafter forgot about usually ashamed to admit they had been so guible It is possible that Judge Black was among them If he it would prove nothing except that he fell along with about million and half others for old mysterious organization money raising stunt which dates back almost to the history of
 A few years ago there swept the land an organi- zation known as the Decimo Club It, too had ten- dollar membership arrangement and it sidered sort of smart to carry Decimo card. In short time the fade passed, or somebody caught up with the Treasurer, and another sharp idea passed into the limbo of forgotten things.
 The history of the Kan is that it rises and falls. Right it is the rise due to the vast amount Of publicity given the Black appointment After Judge Black formally takes up his duties on the bench we'll probably hear more about it. And do not be- lieve that the urist is going to sit the bench with hood his head as some of the anti-appointment boys would have think.

 The American Legion convention in New York City was a highly colorftl affair. And so of the stories written in the eastern papers about Alaska and it's delegation it is revealed in newspaper clipping on the Legion parade sent here by w. S.

 With an appropriate "oh. yeah" MT. Pullen culed this gem from eastern newspaper account of the parade

Commissioner Landis
lNeW York Timesl

NNeW OIk lllleS)
 MT J. M Lands resgning from the Securities and Exchange Commission, ends official career which has been diligent, unsensational and on the whole conservative. Under his chairmanship he has followed his predecessor, Joseph P. Kennedy, in avoiding the hostile attitude toward the institutions supervised which has characterized many other Gov ernment bureaus since 1933. His personal relations with Stock Exchange authorities have been friendly; they themselves have frankly recognized that many of the commissions innovations have been useful. Considering what apprehended from Government regulation when, a few years ago, so large part of Congress and the general public holding the Stock Exchange wholly responsible for the 1929 panic and the subsequent depression, this is much to say
 But in what may be called his valedctory remarks MT Landis reverted to the attitude of the theorst rather than that of the practical investigator He not he said, arguing for the complete elimination of the speculative operator but against his dominance of the market. But when would dominance begin? He does not tell us. Speculative activity, even when manipulated in the usual does not create buying power but makes the market less stable than it ought to be" This would apparently assume that professional speculation for the rise would not usually be offset by professional speculation for the fall
 To MT Gays contention that thin market makes difficult for investors to sell or buy and makes easy for sudden speculative orders to unduly wide breaks advances, MT Landis answers only by arguing that excessive number of long or short positions ready to be iqudated creates an unstable market: that real estate market built specula ton" is market built on sand and that the defense of markets with large buying and selling orders would justify 1929 But he makes mention of the usually corrective influence of professional speculation III buying mania of the public of the fact that rotous real estate speculation is always the buying side.
 Professional manipulation of the stock market has in the past had much to answer for Its abuses ought be and virtually have been abated by restrictive regulation both before and since the Securities Com mission into being. But if the reasoning of MT. Landis exactly applied, it would go far toward opposing all speculation whose office is recognized as steadying the grain market, for example where speculative buying constantly sustans prices against urgent farmers marketings, and where speculative selling often protects them against excessively wide advances because of temporary decrease in supplies
