Every trust in the United States owes its existence to the private own- ership of railroads, George L.

F. J. Clark, once Texas judge, and during the campaign .of 1822 a 'titan of the Klan order, then elaborated on Henry's story. Dr. Evans first re- garded Henry as a “stalking *horse. Clark said, but found the candidate turning into “a race horse.” Klan Documents Examined. To Evans both witnesses ascribed | the statement that the Klan was being “made a militant political organiza- tion.” Clark sharply declared that he was ‘“now a citizen of the United States,” and indicated his present b ef that membership in the order was incompatible with a good status. Various documents of Klan origin came into the examination, one of which assigned, by agreement of its state officials, “one-third of the imperial tax” to be used for unnamed Texas purposes. i There was & brief touch "upon cam- paign expenditures outside the Klan when John C. Towns of Houston testi- fied to helping raise from officials of the Himble Oil Company, including himself, $2,500. He said he did not know that Senator Mayfield was cog- nizant of the contributions, and that they were ‘entirely personal, not cor- porate. Very little crogs-examination was undertaken by Senator Mayfield's at- torneys, who contended that the Klan issue was entirely irrelevant. The «smmittee adjourned until Monday.

LABOR LAWS URGED. Representative Workers Need Protection. Modern conditions in industry and the many so-called forms of danger- ous employment make special legis- lation necessary to insure protection of employes and to keep them from becoming probably a liability to the community, Representative Roy G. Fitzgerald of Ohio told the fifth trict conference of Associated Cha ties at 816 Eye street northeast yes- terday. “Conditions today,” he said, * not like they were about years ago. A great separation be- tween the empléye and employer has taken place.” The 'District of Columbia needs special legislation to protect em- ployes against accidents, he said, and pointed out that most of the states now have some form of spe: cial legislation for the protection of employes. A discussion of special cases with which the conference has had to deal occupied the rest of the meeting. Rev. re C. R. Stauffer, president of the con- ference, presided. Cuts Shoe Stitchers’ Pay.

Laughlin of Phila- delphia of the Alliance of Catholic Women, Mrs. George P. Scriven of the Washington Council of Catholic Women and others argued against circulation of birth control literature and putting Congress on record as tavoring it.
