By the Associated Press DALLAS, Tex., August 12.—Second Texas primary campaign for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination gained headway today as Gov. Miriam A. Ferguson mobilized her followers on an anti-Ku Klux Klan platform in her attempt to defeat Attorney General Dan Moody. The governor's ¢ platform is virtually the same as that on which she rode to victory two vears ago. Branding the July ballot, in which Moody led hes by a wide margin, as a “bolting Ku Klux Klan primary,” Mrs. Ferguson has entered the run-off contest in direct reversal of plans under which she said she would with- draw from the race and resign from Abe Martin Says: aww Sometimes it's purty hard t’ fergive an’ fergit, but jest walit till you try t’ ' _THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

CHICAGO, Augdst 12.—Eradica- tlon of leprosy was placed before the Supreme Lodge of the Knights of Pythias yesterday as the “great, supreme objective towards which Pythian knigthood might labor— something worth while in its scope, and something philanthropic.” Under a resolution, which was re- ferred to a committee, the order would interest ftself in the leper colony on_Culion Island, Philippine Islands.
