Khan 10 Cease
Operations

COLUMBIA, S. c., Dee. A -
(ANP)-A warning to the Ku Klux
Khan to go out of existance was
made here last week by Governor
elect James F. Byrnes, who begins
a four-year term of office in jan
uary. Speaking before a Democra-
tic banquet audience of about 600
persons, he said:
Recently we have had two un-
fortunate incidents of violations of
law by men wearing sheets. The
press states that the grand dragon
of the Khan denied that the viola
ton of law referred to was COM
mitted by members of his organi-
zation..
Accepting his statement as
true, it only proves that existance
of such an organization encourages
lawless men to commit crimes and
attribute them to the organiza-
ton.
I'VE know the Klansmen are few
in number, but the people of the
nation do not know it. Many of
these men do not realize the harm
they are doing the state. / hope
they will withdraw from the or
ganization and leave to the state
the duty of Furnishing violators of
the law.
But if any of them are under
any misrepresentation as to what
will be the policy after January,
| want them to know that in this
state there can be but one govern
ment, presided over by a governor
elected by the people"
The incidents referred to were
the recent gunbattle between
Negroes and the Khan at Myrtle
Beach, in which a robed policeman
was killed; and the whipping of a
white farmer by robed men last
week.

Carver To Play Wickenburg,
NoqoIes Here This Week

Victorious in their first two out
ings last weekend, the Carver
Monarchs face heavy opposition
this week with the Wickenburg
Wranglers and the Nogales
Apaches invading the local court
Friday and Saturday nights.
Coach Dudley Hancher's Wrang-
lers will be remembered for the
battle the pint-size quintet gave
Carver here last year. 1t required
an overtime period for the Mon
archs to finally win, 57-54. Wick
enburg went on to cop third place
in the District Tournament for
the second year in row. Tho
Carver will be the favorite Fri
day, the reverse to the under-dog
role the following evening, for the
Nogales Apaches have risen to
power in Class B court circles.
Nogales was the first state
champions when basketball was
separated into A and B classes
back in 1949. The Apaches were
the favorites to repeat last year,
but had to settle for second place
when determined dark-horse
Coolidge five upset them in the
tournament finals. Last years
team is practically intact with
eleven returning lettermen, led by
All-state Buddy Islas (first team
guard selection) and Frank Go
mez, second team All-state
guard selection last season. The
Apaches first won statewide rec
ognition last season when they
defeated the Class A Tucson High
Badgers, ending the latter's con-
secutive winning streak at So
games which had extended over
a two-year period.
The Monarchs, led by Hadie
Redd, who like Gomez of Nogales
won a mythical second team ALL
state guard post, will also field a
quintet of veterans which won 70
games in 27 starts last season.

Just interesting to see how strong
ly the free spirit Of free Amer
leans expressed itself-how defi-

determined not to accept dictation
at any point. Organized labor
leadership issued the ukase that

should be defeated. The admins
tration-union-leadership coalition
aimed at their extinction. What

were elected to the Senate, two
were made Governors, and 100
were reelected to the House. Only
three who ran for reelection were

Seldom in our history have our

A VERY interesting recent sur
"A vey (the Nieman Reports OF
July, 1950) Of newspapers reveals
thought provoking information. In
10 states there is not single com.
munity with competing daily pa

about one fourth Of the total daily

In addition to this we are told
that 5000 weeklies have disap-

victims of the race between rising
production costs and shrinking
profit, the papers without great
financial resources fall by the

"The United Nations is not an
association Of pure democracies,
but Of states with all kinds Of
