But whether proper or not, unfortunately in this campaign a mobilization of radicalism under La- Follette, the largest section of which, the socialists fly the red flag, is at- tacking the constitution of the/Untt- ed States. I cannot agree therefore with his inference that {ts discussion diverts attention from those Issues the people must settle in November by their votes. It only emphasizes the greatest issue. “The question of Mr. Pattangall, which appears in the ‘press this morning are the familiar trick ques- tions of the grdinary politician. They are not the ¢ause of the statement I am about, io make. “Let me say at once that I recog: nize that the Ku Klux Klan in many localities and among many people represents only an instinctive groyp- ing for leadership, moving in the in- terest of law enforcement, which they do vot find in many cowardly politicians and office holders. But it is not the right way to foreward law enforcement, Let us consider for a minute what happened in the state of Oklahoma. Governor Walton was sometime ago elected governor of the state. In his campaign he had not reached the dogtrine—so it seemed to me at least, which was the proper one to be preached under the American flag: When he was elected, one of his early acts was to remove the president of the Univer- sity of Oklahoma, a man. who be- Veved in the old-fashioned doctrines of the constitution, to. establish which. our forbears fought. He placed in that position a socialist who was likely to téach the young mén of that state some new-fashjon- ed doctrines, which, to say the least, are not those of constitutional Amer- {canism. He then loosed upon the state of Oklahoma a horde of hard- ened criminals from the penitentiary, Lax law enforcement prevailed in many places in the state, If there could be an excuse for law abiding citizens to band them- selves together {n secret organtiza- tions for law enforcement, it exist- ed in Oklahoma, and the klan be- came a powerful organization, “What happened then? Then back Ded Governor Walton to the flag—to which, it seems had not kept very close up to that time—and called out the militia of the state. Then {t was that those who had joined the klan in the interest of law and order found themselves arrayed against their flag and the laws of Oklahoma. A situation akin to that of the Civil War existed and it was averted only by ¢lear-headed rien. “And ther’ what happened? There was the application of the only meth- od by which our people can properly settle such differences — the pro- cedure outlined by the constitution and laws of the state of Oklahoma. Walton was removed from the gov: ernorship by the vote of the people and quiet was restored under the or- derly process provided by the consti- tution and the law, “Consider what happened in Hamson county, Illinois, where town of Herrin is situated. A reign of lawlessness existed. It was marked by the: terrible Herrin mas- re. It was marked by a general kdown in respect for law, which indicated that the officers of the county, Including the sheriff, had been intimidated by law breakers into Inaction. A thousand members an to me, he wil the : Che Casper Sunday Cribune ‘JIN COES?

If a secret organization to uphold Jaw and order is justifiable any- where in our county, it was justifi- able there. “But what happened? Immediate- ly the lawless element formed the Knights of the Flaming Circle and then both sides were afraid to go out at night and a condition was cre- ated which actually culminated in civil war and the loss of life. And how, again, was peace established? By the only proper way, in the send- ing of the militia of the state of Tlli- nols to the scene of ‘the trouble, as provided by law in such cases. The ertical situation was settled by it without shedding a drop of blood and the troops were quickly removed. “There is much in the an which appeals to the adventurous youth. I remember * once, when traveling over Illinois, speaking for law en- forcement, the constitution gnd the American flag, some of the Ameri- can Legion men with me talked to other legion men who had joined the Ku Klux Klan at one of the towns visited. These latter young men be- Meved that they were acting in the interests of law enforcement. They told those who were with me what they were planning to do. They said ‘there is a bootlegger in our county who is in cahoots with the sheriff and everybody knows it. Now, we are not going to hurt the man, but some night we are going for him and his still. We are going to gag him, carry him and the still up to the courthouse yard and tie him to it so that the sheriff and the whole town will see them when they come down to their work in the morning.’ “This may appeal to adventurous youths, but my friends, government cannot last if that-is the right way to enforce law in this country. Law- lessness can not meet with lawless. ness and civilization ‘be maintained. What will happen if law is not en- forced by government, but taken in hand by individuals and by minority organizations, ,is what happened some years ago on Bloody Corner in Chicago, ‘Over 100 murders were committeed there in one year and not one.single murderer was brought to. justice.

(United Press Staff Correspondent) BERLIN, Aug. 23.—Forelgn Min- ister Stresemann in a speech general- ly regarded as the best of his career, took the floor in the reichstag this evening and delivered the climax of the cabinet’s appeal for ratification of the pact of London. He defended in a dignified but be- Ugerent manner the delegation’s work in London. The German representatives he said, attained the greatest possible success, which would be jeopardised if it were not ratified by the Reich- stag. Many believed Stresemann had swung the situation more strongly into the Hands of the government. On Monday a general discussion will begin. ‘Chancellor Marx led off with the cabinet“appeals “for support in an impassioned address which was frequently interrupted. Dr. Luther, minister of finange, stressed particu- larly the’ American participation in the London conference which he said had caused different ¥iew to be taken of German economic life ‘be- cause creditors are certainly inter- ested in the prosperity of debtors. In conclusion he said “it has been a long way from Versailles to Lon- don. However, London is not the end but the beginning of an era of coneiliation among nations.” Chancellor Marx pointed out that London conference offers an op- portunity which will not soon reap- pear. “The far-reaching revision of America’s policy—entailing a with- drawal from the years of reserve under a banner of the Dgwes-Young plan and the return to active’ par- ticipation in European plans—may be fruitless if the Dawes plan is re- jected by one of the chief partici-| pants,” he said. He said the ghost of the interallied debts threatened to dissipate the results of the London conference. “If we break the threads of the London conference especially re- garding America’s attitude, upon which Europe's fate depends, the out- come cannot be foreseen,” he declar- ed. Uniess Germany follows the blazed trail it will be lost in the wilderness,” Marx said. . posed to the Ku Klux Klan. Take what I say into your hearts and conscience and think it over calmly.

(Written for the United Press) (Copyright 1924, United Press) ABOARD “THE BERENGARIA, Aug. 24.—(Sunday).—(United Press). —The Prince of Wales retired early this morning after dancing all even ing in first night out from England on his trip to America. He ate his evening meal in the salon with the other cabin passen. gers and was one of the first on the ball room floor, dancing nearly every dance. His fellow passenger respected hi desire for privacy, however, and did not unduly intrude, accepting him in the same Democratic fashion he showed in dining in public rather than in. his private dining room. ON BOARD THE BERENGARIA, Aug. 23.—The Prince of Wales mada a quiet, almost secret departure from Southampton today and start. ed on his way to America and hi vacation, 8 An tronic thing about this trip is that he is occupying the suite on tho Berengeria that was built for the former kaiser, It is a magnificent and the kalser would have suite, lived in it when he made his trium- phant tour of the world after win- ning the war—if his dream had come tue. It was here that the prince so- to cluded himself this morning, avoid all the pomp and formality that was t! of people c: tened when thousands led down to the Cu- nard docks at Southampten in the hope of seeing ‘him and cheering him on his way, Here, this. évenine, he entertained quietly at dinner, his guests being T. Lord and Lady Mountbatten, general Trotter and Viscount Lascelles, the latter two his vacation companions who wil 1 accompany him on his Canadian ranch, > There is always one extra chair set at the pririce’s table for some one he may wish to ask at the last minute. The prince's suite, apart from its magnificent furnishings especial Prepared for the trip, ig beautiful with flowers. The veranda which is part of the suite, is a veritab‘e bow. er of chrysanthemums, hydrangeas and ferns. In some respects this’is a trying voyage for the heir to the throne. He doesn t care for pomp, and there are many who think it alwaye must be accorded him. He desires to be treated as just one of the passengers and that was one of his first r°- quests on this voyage. He usually dines in his suite but spends most of the rest of the time about the ship. is keenly interested in box- ing and in accordance with his u:- al custom when on sea trips, prob- ably will indulge in a little sparring in the gymnasium before breaicrast each day. He also is fona of adne- ing and the numerous American passengers aboard certainly will givo He him a wide choice of partners. The prince spent the night with Lord and Lady Mountbatten, tak a launch before dawn from Cov today and boarding the Berenguria before the port was awake. He re. tired as soon as he reached breakfast.
