By The Associated Press, Oklahoma City, Oet. 256.—A dozen or more house members , forcibly attacked Representative Callahan, smashed a chair and threw Callahan out of the room when he declared in a bitter ar- raignment of the Ku Klux Klan that N. C. Jewett, grand dragon of the Oklahoma realm of the klan was dictating the kind of legislation to be enacted in Oklahoma. One member shouted “That’s a black lie” and another mem- ber sprang at Callahan’s throat. Both fell in a scuffle. Twelve or 15 other members rushed to- ward Callahan. Clenched fists were waving as Callahan was forcibly ejected into a cloak room. Callahan stood guarded by two members after the ser- geant at arms had ordered other members back into the chamber. Callahan's attack on the klan oc- curred after a debate on whether the house should vote for impeachment of Governor J. C. Walton on Article 10, which concerns his declaration of martial law in Tulsa county. Calla- han said that ninety per cent of the Jjury commissioners in the state were members of the Ku Klux Klan. “People in this state have been tried in secret before they reached the courtroom,” Callahan declared. “Do you know that 90 per cent of the Oklahoma jury commissioners are kiansmen?*" one member demanded. “Yes sir, I know it Callahan re- plied. He then related how Governor Wal- ton declared war on the klan and how Grand Dragon Jewett “almost imme- diately defied the executive to over- throw the Kn Klux Klan." “This same Mr, Jewett,” asserted Callahan, wavthg his arms and vig- 1 | | | orously shaking his head, “is dictating (Continved on Page Fifteen) Prosecutor May Seek Injunction Against Lafayette Street Store “It has been brought to my at- tention that traffic congestion mln:t' be greatly relleved by a change In the system of collecting fares on the Connecticut Co. trolleys, and I am writing you to ask that you consider the proposed change and let this of- fico know how you feel mbout it, “It has been suggested that the present system of collecting as pas- sengers enter cars be discontinud and in its stead that a system of collect- ing as the passengers leave cars be adopted. “During the rush hours, cars are often delayed in the center of the city for five minutes or more while a long line of passengers enters the trolley going through the usual for- malities of making change, depositing fares, etc. If the passengers were al- lowed to enter and then make ready their fares to be deposited at the point where they wish to leave the car, it might greatly relieve condi- tions. “Will you kindly give this matter early consideration and reply so that I may bring your recommendations before the railroads committee of the common council?”” RECEIVES 11,000 YOLTS Despite Terrific Shock Which Render- ed Him Unconscious, Lockport, N.

FLIERS HOP OFF Captain Smith and Lieut. Richter Ot on Their Non-Stop Flight to Mexi- «can Border From Canada. Sumas, Wash., Oct. 25.—Captain Lowell H. Smith and Lieutenant John P. Richter, bound for a non-stop flight to Tijuana, Mexico, hopped of here at 6:36 a. m, today, went north over the Canadian line and turned south in a clear windless sky. It is planned to re-fuel their De- Haviland over Bugene, Ore, and over Sacramento, Calif. The match started at about 10 a. m., with a heavy breeze and SOEEY course for the players to face. The | first hole was badly played by both | contenders for the champlonship, Mr. Stanley hooking his drive Into the short rough and Mr. Manning landing in the trap to the left, just out of the rough. Manning’s second shot from the trap was a nice recovery but he took a 6 to go down, Stanley gotting a 7. The rest of the first nine was played in good golf, few phenom- onal shots being made, excepting on the sixth hole. Here Stanley made a recovery from the watersoaked rough to the right of the green but over the Lrook and ran down a putt for a 3. Though Manning’s tee shot was on, he took three putts, giving Stanley the only hole he won in the first 18 holes of the match. They finished the first nine with Manning 4 up, the third, seventh and eighth holes being halved. Stanley was straight and Manning was off to the right on the 10th hole, but Manning recovered well with an iron and Stanley made a poor scratch, his opponent’s 6. Stanley's putting was excellent, his fairway shots being the element that worked for his de- feat. He outputted his opponent on nearly every hoie. Manning took 7 of the second nine holes, the 13th and 17th being halved. Both players played, on the whole, poorer golf on the second nine than they did on the lower, putting being largely respon- sible for Manning's score. The cards for the first 18 of the 36 to be played were: Manning— Out—6 4 54 4 47 In—5553445 Stanle; Out—T756653766-—48, Tn—6 468556 67-—48-—06, In the semi-finals of the ladies’ tournament, Mrs. C. 8. Bennett won from M 8. North, one up. This as also played this morning.
