COMMENDS OFFICER JUSTICE CRITICISED Col. Sherrill Says Park Police . Used No More Force Than, o Was Necessary. Weollowing a public hearing today €al. €. O. Sherrill, officer in charge of public buildings and grounds, com- mended Park Policeman M. A. Ralney, “ho was reprimanded earlier in the week by Judge Mattingly in United States branch Police Court, for shoot- ing to stop a speeding motorist in Totomac Park. Col. Sherrill is in full charge of the parks of the city and the park police- men therein, and ordered today's in- vestigation of the shooting at the automobile in order to hear the testi- mony of the police officers concerned in the affair, and to determine if any disciplinary 'action was necessary. Col. Sherrill made his statement fol- lowing testimony glven before him of Park Policemen Rainey, C. D. Fortner and O. E. Morgan, £ad Sergt. F. Wil- son. Gen. Pershing’s chauffeur. Fort- ner and Morgam aided Rainey in the arrest of the three men in the fleeing motor car, a8 did Sergt. Wilson. Disagrees With Judge. Tn commending Policeman Rainey. an overseas veteran, Col. Sherrill de clared flatly thut after hearing th testimony of all the park police of- ficers concerned he could not agree with Judge Mattingly in any parficu- lar in ragard to there having been no necessity for the firlng of shots. “I am cenvinced that the arrest of the three men, as made by Kainey and the men Assisting him. was done in an absolutely correct manner, and ne more force was used than neces- sary te accomplish the purpose,” de- clared Col. Sherrill. Commenting upon testimony given | that a chase of mnearly seven miles was indulged in while attempting to arrest the speeding men, in the course of which the lives of hundreds of persuns were endangered, Col. Sher- rill said the only reason one or more were not killed was that Rainey con- stantly kept blowing his motor cycle horn. Further Comment. “If there ever was a flagrant dis- regard of the rights and safety of the public, it was by the three men arrested,” Col. Sherrill stated, “and until the operators of motor cars are properly and severly punished for such conduct there never will be any Wope of protecting the rights of pe- destrians. s the official responsible for the control of the purks here, I feel that it is essential that the park police be supported by the judiciary in protect- ing the rights of the people. As that official, I constantly insist on cous teous treatment in handling the pub- lic, but also on carrying out the law, necessary force to do so." WILL PAVE THE WAY FORKU KLUX PROBE Assurance that prompt opportunity will be offered for consideration of the proposal for congressional inves- tigation of the Ku Klux Klan, as asked in the Tague and Ryan reso- lutions, was given again today by Chairman Campbell of the House rules committee, prompted by the re- ceipt by him and other members of the House and Senate of a telegram from Willlam J, Simmons, imperial wizard of the klan. After reading the telegram from the imperial wizard, Representative Campbell said: “If an investigation is ordered Mr. Simmons will be notifled and be giv- en ample opportunity to be present when the investigating committee takes up the matte: Dictates Statement. Representative Campbell dictated the following statement: “I shall call the rules committee together as soon as the members re- turn to the city next week and lay bfore it the resolutions relating to the Ku Klux Klan, and also Mr. Sim- mons’ telegram. “In connection with the consider: tion of these measures, we will the proponents of the investigation .to submit to the committee any infor- mation they may have bearing on the necessity for the inquiry asked.” In view of the imperial wizard's telegraphed approval of the proposed invesitgation, Chairman Campbell was of the opinion that it would not be essential that representatives of the klan be given an opportunity to express their views on the resolution. Text of Telegram. * The telegram received by many members of Congress from Mr. Sim- mons follows: “The knights of the Ku Klux Klan through me, the founder and chief executive, respectfully ask and would appreciate your vote in favor of the passage of a bill introduced Septem- ber 21, 1921, by Hon. Peter F. Tague, proiding for a congressional inestiga- tion of the Ku Klux Klan. We demur 1o the wording of the bill in so far as charges against the klan are con- cerned, but we unreservedly agree with the purpose of the bill or any other resolution that will provide for and assure a congressional investigs tion of the Ku Klux Klan. We know that such an investigation will be impartial, and that when completed the klan will be fully exonorated from | all slander and charges made agalnst it Asks for Hearing. “We would appreciate the oppor- tunity of proving to a congressional committee by documentary evidence and unimpeachable witnesses the factors back of the attack against the klan and also proving the abso- Jute unreliability and untruthfulness of men launching signed newspaper articles in Washington and else- where against the klan, From our knowledge of the klan, its member- ship and aectivitiea, we know that the investigation will officially reveal that the klan was founded only on the principles of democracy; does not countenance religious and racial prejudices and seeks only to bind to- gether men for mutual service and is_inspired by love of justice, respect for the law and a deep faith in the #lorious future of the American peo- ple.

MARINES IN'BIG BATTLE. | i | Realistic Warfare Over Historic ‘Wilderness Grounds: -~ -~ MESS TENT, CAMP HARDING, THE WILDERNESS, October 1.—This war game makes a mighty pretty picture from any post of vantage, with machine gun squads and infantry ‘“inflitrating” through woods and uplands, concealed from time to time by smoke screems, covered in thelr dashing advances by roaring whippet tanks, and *‘supported” by artillery batterjes located to the rear.

None of the menators, however, signified a desire to speak on the treaty today. The Senate, therefore, proceeded with the consideration of the tax-revision bill. ratification of the peace treaties with the middle of this month, as the re- sult of an agreement to begin limita- tion of debate on October 14. Be- ginning on that day senators will be restricted to ten minutes. ‘The program was arranged under a unanimous consent agreement adopt- ed late yesterday after leaders in charge of the anti-beer bill had ex- pressed confidence that this measure would not be sidetracked as a result. Consgideration of the tax revision bill is expected to be deferred some time next week in order to give oppor- tunity for debate of the treaties. Un- der such &n arrangement it is ex- pected that night sessions will be unnecessary to expedite treaty action. The voting agreement was held up temporarily and almost rejected by managers of the anti-beer bill, who, fearing this measure might be side- tracked, forced Senator Lodge to dew lay presenting the agreeme: °.
