,
Lieutenant of Gompers Denounces Followers of "Fiery Cross"
as Enemies of American Ideals and Fomenters of
Class Feclirtfl and Discord
ME Ku Klux Klan, Inc., while pumping the virus of racial and religious
prejudice throughout tho Nation, makes use of poisonous propaganda
ty against the Jews.
V' Evidence of these whispered or outspoken maledictions can bo found
P 'in the Searchlight, the Atlanti publication which has on its mailing lists
V, a multitudo of Grand Goblins, King Klcagles and other functionaries of
f the order.
? Just ns the Klansmcn mask their identities behind hoods and gowns
k does tho order shroud its anti-Semitic attitude behind anonymous signa
?' tures in "contributions" to the Searchlight, which is mailed to all the
I' States in which tho "Invisible Empire" has gained a foothold.
P One of the vicious attacks made on tho Jewish people is that agitators
t of that race are plotting, to creato a war between the whites and the
Negroes, to destroy the American Government.
The Jews now, the allegations go on, are interested in overthrowing
Christian Russia and, through the Third Internationale at Moscow, are
working to destroy all the Gentile Governments of the world.
With this object in view, the allegations continue, Jews are boring
their way into every Government on earth except the Governments of
China and Japan.
Another aspect of the Klan's activities, its relation to labor, is attract-
ing attention and condemnation. Workers in some sections of the country
havo been threatened with bodily injury for insisting on the maintenance of
wage scales.
f The Negroes also receive a full share of Klannish attention. Tho
'jC attitude of the Klan overlords toward nil men but those eligible for
5 "naturalization" under the "Emperor" is flamboyantly set forth by tho
"Imperial Chaplain" of the order.
By manipulating hatred, bigotry and intolerance while professing
"100 per cent Americanism" the Klan's kluckers of "Imperial," "Grand"
and "Kingly" degree are busily engaged in extending the frontiers of the
'(Invisible Empire."
'''The text of the Klan oaths and the flowery language of its "Kloran"
show that tho leaders of Kluxism have established an "Emperor" and an
"Imperial Palace" in a Nation which has thrivqd mightily with a President
and a White House.
Ui
CLOAK OF ANONYMITY USED
BY KLAN IN SPREADING HATRED
WOLUS WARNING TO LABOR
Washington, Sept. 10. Warning to organized lnbor against tho
conduct of tho.Ku Klux Klan and its antagonism to trade unionism
was issued today by Matthew Woll, vico president of the American
Federation of Labor and close nssoclato of Samuel Gompers in. deter
mining labor policies. Mr. Woll called upon the Federal Government''
to make a thorough investigation of Kil Kluxism and its operations.
His statement reads: , ' '
"Ku Kluxism as preached by its self-styled Emperor and ns prac
ticed by his followers is a menace to Amcrican''freedom. The very
title of tho principal official shows its un-Atnericanism. There is no
room for any Emperor in" America..
"I am satisfied that it would be impossible to find a trade unionist
who belongs to tho Ku Klux Klan. Trade unions stand for democracy;
the Ku Klux Klan stands for a sneaking, cowardly autocracy, working
in the dark, striking under cover, making ono pretense hero and
another somewhere else.
"The conduct of the Ku Klux Klan in the Northwest should be
sufficient to warn every labor man of what the spread of this Klanish
ncss may mean. In that great section tho Klan has been bitterly
hostile to trade unionism, and I have no doubt will be, when oppor
tunity offers, just as' bitterly hostile elsewhere.
"In portions of the South tho Klan has been driving Negroes to
work, regardless of wages and conditions. It is an outrageous institu
tion, abhorrent to every American principle. In tho Klan there is a
vicious principle swathed in a mass of ritualist buncombe. It3 greatest
attraction is for tho credulous, the superstitious, the vain and the
foolish. -
"Tho United States Government, through proper agencies, should
investigate thoroughly the whole range of Ku Klux operations. There
is no room for an Invisible Empire in a democracy, and I am satisfied
that the whole voice of trade unionism demands its eradication."
Other lnbor leaders indorse the statement of Mr. Woll, among
them Thomas Flaherty, of the National Federation of Postofflcc Clerks.

these two are very likely to be the

The other half of the sciiil-final pic

Attorney Matthew Brady lias an
nounced that lie will make public today
his decision whether to try Koscoe
("Fatty") Arbuckle for murder In con
nection with the .lentil of Miss Virginia
Knppe, or whether he will prosecute

ment returned by tho Grand Jury.
Arbuckle was to be arraigned before
Police Judge Sylvian Lnznrus today for
preliminary examination on a charge of

London, Sept. 10.--Primc Minister
Lloyd George, from whom tho next
move in the Irish negotiations is looked
for, wns still nlllng at his vacation-'
time homo nt Gnirloch today.
He wos reported to be better, how
ever, nnd as contemplating a return to
London earlier than ho had expected
to consult his collcngues on the situa
tion nrllng from Eamon do Vnlcra's
statement in his letter made public yes
terday that only ns representative of
Ireland ns a sovereign stnto did tho
Dnil Eireann hnve power to act, and
from Lloyd George's own cancellation
of the arrangements for the proposed
conference nt Inverness.
Public opinion in England, so far as.
it has found expression, is virtually
solid In support of the Prime Minister
in Ids contention thnt all the advance,
possible toward peace hnve been mado
by Great Britain nnd thnt the Govern
ment cannot go further to meet the
Irish republican aspirations.
Hopo for Irish Plebiscite
There wns hope that Do Valcra would
ask his people for a new mandate, and,
that a plebiscite in Ireland would result
In favor of the acceptance of Dominion,
homo rule, but even the Irish Nation
alists, according to expressions from
them received here in Dublin, believe
now thnt the result would be contrary
to English expectation.
It is pointed out that Lloyd George's
-eply to De Valcra left nn opening for
the continuation of the discussions after
the Cabinet had decided what should'
be done, but the preponderance of opin
ion here is thnt there can be no further
concessions by England. The Govern?
inent, it is thought, may therefore de
cide upon n general election to obtain
an indorsement of its policy fronv the
public.
It was made plain by the Prime Min
ister that he could not meet the Sinn
Fein delegates if the claim of Irish In
dependence mid sovereignty were In--isted
unon.
The British Parliament adjourned on
August 1!) until October 18. but Prime
Minister L!o.d George announced be
fore the adjournment thnt if negotia
tions with the Sinn Fein broke down
and the position beenme hopeless, the
Speaker of the Houe of Commons
would be empowered, nfter consultation
with tho Government, to Riimmon Par
liament on forty-eight hours' notice.
Truce Itemalns In Forco
There was no indication here today
thnt cither the British Government or
the Sinn Fein would denounce the truce

JOHN SHARP WILLIAMS' ILLNESS NOT ALARMING

seemingly n difficult question today.
Two points made by De Valcra in his
note to I.lojd George were cioseh- ox-
I nmined by those who were trvlnir to
determine what p'un the republicans
had in mind. The first was the state
ment: "Oiir notion has formally de
clared its independence and recognizes
itelf a sovereign State, and it is only
ns representatives of that Stnte nnd its
chosen giianllans That we have authorj
ity and powers to uct in behalf of our
people."
It was suggested thnt the Dnil Elre
iinn might intend to go to the Irish
people with the question and seek to
determine by a plebiscite what tho do-
sires of the people nre. The result of
such a plebiscite would, it wns pointed
out, either confirm the stnnd made by
the republican leaders, or would glvn
them n luniiilnte to waive the demand
for separation and enter a conference
with the British Government.
Strong Sentiment for Plebiscite i
There has been a strong party In
Ireland that has been urging an election
to determine the steps taken, there being
n number of tiu-n In the councils of
the Sum Fein who have believed it
would provide a means for accepting thu
British Government's offer of dominion
stl.tus.
