Gus article referred to in the
paper of Mr.. BonniWell, and
which was the spurious
Knights of Columbus oath
The oath was printed in the
Congressional Record of Feb
ruary Is, 1918, not as genuine
but as an exhibit in the dis
puted election case.
Since then the oath has
cropped up in Australia and
England, and in a German
language newspaper in Amer
lea. The fact that it was print
ed in the Congressional Re-
cord is often cited as testl-
mony to its genuineness.
The Knights of Columbus
have offered $4,000 to any
one who can furnish proof
that the alleged "oath" was
ever taken by the knights of
Columbus.
The spurious oath is sup
posed to be for Fourth Degree
Knights. This is the real oath
taken by fourth degree
Knights of Columbus:

it had had a few requests in
the more than 10 years the
Representative has been in
Congress. A congressman who
has been here nearly two
decades measured his words

the office Staffer said.

having 80 to 35 requests for

weeks said the representative

back to Washington, the con-
gresham wrote letters to so
or so friends, who had not
requested the Congressional
Record, pointing out to them
the falsity of the "oath" and
asking them to counterfeit its
circulation where they could.
The senators and repre-
sentatives have dealt with
these requests in several
ways. In a few cases they have
ignored them. In some cases
they have written letters to
the constituents pointing out
that the "oath" has been dis
credited. In the vast majority
of eases, they have sent let
tiers and a statement on the
'oath' provided by the Ii

HART SAYS:
Bogus Oath Can Do
Good Ii Refuted Quickly
HART SAYS:

The Supreme Knight of
the Knights of Columbus
says that circulation of
the bogus Knights of Co.
lumbuS "oath" is doing
more good than harm.
Supreme Knight Luke E.
Hart attending the 18th an
nual meeting of the K. of c..
Supreme Council in Atlanta,
said the oath is clearing the
air" by drawing rebuttal even
from non-C Catholics. The Oath,
which is at least 48 years old,
has been circulated lately in
opposition to Sen. John F.
Kennedy's candidacy for the
presidency.
Mr.. Hart pointed out that
when the oath was distributed
in North Carolina, the Raj
eigh News and Observer de-
clared in an editorial that to
circulate the bogus oath was
to violate the Commandments,
and that those who circulated
it were bearing false witness
against their neighbor.
K. of c. officials had con-
WINGED Jonathan Daniels, ed
itor of the newspaper, that
the oath is spurious.
Mr.. HART said that in some
parts Of the country where
the false oath had been pub
lished. those responsible for
its publication have issued re-
fractions and apologies when
the truth was made known to
them.
THE Oath" is a blood

1860, by Protestants and 9th
err Americans United for Sep
aration of Church and State,
an organization that has been
highly critical of the Catholic
Church, called the oath spur
ious' and fantastic"
Mr.. Hart said the K. of c.
will pursue its policy of UNI
masking the oath wherever
it is published, and of taking
its publishers to court if they
refuse to retract or apologize.
He recalled that the Rev.
Mr.. w. L.. King, pastor of the
Nazarene Bible Church near
Pittsburgh, has been ordered
TO appear before a grand jury
in September on charges of
criminal libel. He refused to
retract the oath when the K.
of c. pointed out to him that
it is false. Rev. Mr.. King is
at liberty on $1,000 bond.
Mr.. Hart said he is convinc-
ed that Rev. Mr.. King is the
principle supplier of copies of
the oath, although copies have
originated from a number of
places. He said as far as he
can ascertain there is no uni
fled campaign for circulation
of the oath.

The controversy a link between Route 240 in
Maryland and Washington'S downtown inner loop has

controversy when Bertram D. Talamy administrator of
the Bureau of Public Roads, told the District that any

Mr. Talamy'S directive carries considerable weight
because the agency which he heads decides whether local
communitys Interstate Highways (he Route 240 connec-
ton is on that system) qualify for Federal aid.
This Federal aid is important because it means that

Kassem Action
Hits at Soviet

CAIRO. Feb. IL (AP).-Iraq's
Premier Abdel Karin Kassem
took another big step away
from Moscow last night.
Baghdad radio announced
the Premier had refused to
license the Moscow backed
Iraqi Communist Party of
Abdulla Bustani as an official
political party. Instead, Gen.
kassem granted a license to a
splinter Com munist Party
headed by Daoud Sayegh,
which international commu-
nism has denounced as a dis
rupting gang"
Diplomats in Cairo believe
Gen. KasSem's action may
bring open conflict with Mr..
BuStani's powerful forces.
Gen. KaSsem decreed an end
to the Transition period" of
revolutionary rule in Iraq early
this year and said political
parties, banned since the over
throw of the monarchy in 1858,
could apply for licenses to
operate. But early this month
the Premier said he would
allow only one Communist
Party to function politically.
Street mobs controlled by
Mr.. Bustani's Communist Party
have been among Gen. Kas-
Sem's chief supporters, but
in recent months he has
S owed increasing coolness
toward the Moscow-oriented
Reds. There has been con-
suspicion abroad that
the Premier inspires Mr..
Sayegh and his faction to break
with Mr.. Bustani.

The cabinet also took away
from the French settlers in
Algeria their own military arm.
1t had been one of the chief
props of the abortive French
uprising in Algiers last month.

proved during a two-and-a-

Abolished the army's psyche

of whose officers were SYM
