Mosbach, * Baden, Corliss and Griffis given sentence of 18 months, Oklahoma City, Dee78.2-The death | knell of its sponsors’ hopes for dras- tie anti-Ku Klux Klan legislation in the present session was sounded yes- terday when Klan sympathizers in the loweF house of the Oklahoma leg- islature frustrated attempts to rein- state provisions in an act to force secret organizations to reveal lists. Such sections in the original bill having been stricken out by the sen- ate supporters of the measure had pinned their faith on the house for stringent régulatory provisions, as- serting that any act without a clause to throw secret membership rolls open for public inspection would be inadequate. The decisive majoritics piled up against amendments waict would have reinstated these prov sions, however, indicated the senti- ment of the house and eliminated any possibility in the opinion of ob- servers that further moves contem- plated in this direction might be put over, iain MARKET NEWS SUPPORT OF BUYING LIGHT »Wheat Drops in Early Deal- ings in Chicago For Sale— Choice Canarie Singers.
