KLAN RIDING HERD ON MEMBERS. The Birmingham Sunday News and Age Her- ald is authority for the statement that at a meet- ing between Imperial Wizard Dr. Hiram W. Evans of the Klan with high State officials of the Alabama Realm, Dr. Evans announced to the sembled Klansmen that member of the ganization who voted for Gov. Al' Smith of York, in case he received the Democratic dential nomina , “would be banished from the order.” i g r. Hvans' claim that the Klan, as an organization, was not politically active, look foolish One of its main weapons in stock proscription, which alike applied on racial, religious and national grounds, it is not surpris- ing that its dictators would turn it against the organization’s membership. The element of surprise might to be +that the situation has become desperate from the Klan view- point that to threaten members with “banishment” stay the tide that has #set so strongly toward Gov. Smith. And if it seeks to carry the threat into effect in the far Southern States, the national campaign of 1928 will witness a final disintegration of the order in those commonwealths, The old line Demo- crats of the South may fight Gov. Smith’s nom- ination, opposing it with all their strength, but if he is nominated, no organization be it Klan or church, can prevent most of them from casting their ballots for him. This talk of abandonment of party in the South if the Klan's fight on Gov. +8mith fails in the national convention is bunkum, designed for away from home consumption for the sole purpose of bluffing the Smith follow- ing into any sort of a political ecompromise. So far it has been a total failure and there aré no indications that Dr. Evans and co-workers, even ' though they close herd their members up to the " polls on election days, will get anywhere with it.

These there have and that in better than statistics disclose that since 1880 been twelve Presidential elections, six of these years business was normal; in one year approximately normal, and in five years below normal. There is nothing to show that an election and its prospects of victory for either party can have a determining influence on the trend of business at these four-year intervals, says The World, which illusirates this conclusion by pointing to 1908, when the election of the con- servative Taft was taken for granted. Business then was depressed, while in 1912, with the Republican ty split in two, with Wilson assured of election, business was in gratifying condition. However, in 1920 and 1924, when the conservatiy: seemed certain to win, and did, business was poor. The World properly tuations in these years other than political causes. This being the case, no ome should worry over business prospects during the coming Presi- dential contest. The country at present is gen- erally prosperous. There are no vastly disturb- ing questions at issue-between the parties. The economic probabilities, so far as can be esti- mated, are all in favor of continued prosperity.
