ALMA FIRST MICHIGAN KLAN TO OWN KLAVERN (Special to The Fiery Cross) ALMA, Mich., Oct. 20. The first Klan to own Its own grounds and Klavern In Michigan is the Klan of Oratlot county. Recently the local order purchased a beautiful piece of ground along Pine Ulver. A large building Is now on the place and It will be remodeled to suit the convenience of those who are to occupy It. MILWAUKEE UNIT HOST TO NUMBER OF GUESTS MILWAUKEE. Wis., Oct. 21. The opening of the new Milwaukee Klavern of the Ku Klux Klan here caused a great deal of Interest among citizens, and It was estimated that more than 4,000 persons took advantage of the Klan's Invitation to visit and inspect the new home, formerly the mansion of Percy C. Day. now In prison. It was the screen that suggested It. "Two other boys witness a hold-up scene In the ninvlrs, and the next evening; they go out and not only ron, nut murder n citizen In the process. "A married man wltnesaes disloyalty en the screen and then applies for a divorce for himself. "Judge Hoyt tells of a boy thief who had an uncanny knowledge of the burglar's art and confessed that he learned It by closely observing a crook, who was the leading actor In a serial. "The movies are doing much to break down the Eighteenth Amendment and bring back the legalized saloori, and they are carrying on this propaganda through the tremendous power of suggestion. "Saloon scenes are constantly hrtnr flashed on the screen. Sarcastic flings 'at Prohibition are common. By insuit, insinuation and ridicule tnev attempt to hold It up to laughter, contempt a-nd scorn. Attack Protestant Christianity "Not only this, but the movies are making a systematic attack on Protestant Christianity. Protestant minis. era and their congregations have for years been the subjects of insult, ridicule and scorn. "I mention three facts just here which are significant: First, In every ,,;,.. .-..( case wncre a Horaati priest or a CathIs shown it is wl;h dig- ' '"I'"1' ncunu. where a rabbi or a Jewish service is shown it is. always with dignity and due respect; but third. In nearly every Instance where a Protestant minister or his service Is shown. It Is done with the purpose of creating laughter. "Likewise, some of the most pop ular pictures which have been on the screen, such as 'The Inside of the Cup,' 'Hell's Hinges,' and many others, were designed with the obvious purpose of making a mock, of Protestant religion; and thus by Insinuation and suggestion they underm!ne the foundation upon which our republic la built.'".

In this respect I will give you the same answer I have given innumerable letters on the same subject. I nm not now nor have I been a member of the Klan or any of Its branches." Letter from Dr. McCulloch published In the Indianapolis News April 11. 1024. "All citizens of the Vnlted States are guaranteed the right to worxhlp according to the dictates of their own conscience. I will oppose by every means within my power any attempt by the Ku Klux Klan or any other organisation to subvert that principle." Speech by Dr. McCulloch before Bethel African M. E. Church, Indianapolis. Sunday, September 7, 124. "There should be no Klansmen or Klan champions chosen to speak for Dr. McCulloch, the Democratic nominee for governor of Indiana. We respectfully warn the speakers' committee that If thla program la carried out. It will prove disastrous. There Is time to Chang." Editorial la Indiana Catholic and Record. September 10, 1024.

More than 16.000 persons lined the streets of Columbus last Saturday evening and cheered a procession of 10,000 Klansmen, Women of the Klan and Junior Klansmen. The parade was spectacular, many beautiful floats adding color to the demonstration. Several thousand Klansmen attended a meeting on the Hess farm at Olentangy river road and Dodridge street In the afternoon, where speakers told of Klan principles and the progress of the organization In the state. The meeting was the largest and most enthusiastic Klan affair ever held In Columbua. WOMEN OF TENNESSEE DONATE TO CHURCHES CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Oct. 20. Many donations have been made to various Protestant churches by the Klanswomen, not only In thla city, but In the surrounding towns. A recent undertaking was a banquet given here. Several thousand Klansmen and Klanswomen Joined In the men's Klavern In a celebration that cemented a closer feeling between the two organization. NORTH CAROLINA UNIT GIVES $50 TO PASTOR WALLACE, N. C. Oct. 20. While Rev. Calvin J. Carr was holding revival services, fifty Klansmen In full regalia, carrying an American flag and a fiery cross, entered the church at the close of services and laid an envelope containing Jp0 on the altar. FOKS WON'T HURT IT Tou may laugh at the Klan; you may deride Its leaders and teachers: you may call it un-American andbang a yoke about its shoulders and a noose about Its neck; you may prevent Its peaceable gatherings and refuse it protection against disloyal mobs; you may caricature Its regalia, and stone Its adherents; you may lie about it; you may scoff at It; but Its here to stay and its ranks are being reinforced daily by thousands of loyal citizens. The Klan has come to remain, and in the face of perjured demagogues and lying bosses It will do Its regenerating work In American education, American religion, and American government. A MKMOIIY iEM Take this memory gem from Mr. Albert H. Laidlaw. It Is worth Klanizlng and scrap-booking. "The operations of the antl-Amerlcans," says Mr, Laidlaw, "both abroad and at home are very much the same. They are strong on generalization, feeble on specification. Those abroad feed upon the generalizations of those at home, elaborate on the generalizations of the La Follettes; occasionally, by sheer audacity, they burst forth with specifications and get away with it." It Is good to keep these red birds specifying fnr from home and mother. They have no part In Klan Americanism.

CALIFORNIA PAPERS MAGNIFY GRIEVANCE OF FORMER MEMBERS Seize on Criticisms of Banished Klansmen to Put Klan in a Bad Light Imperial Representative Addresses a Letter to Loyal Followers Asking for Fealty (Special to The Fiery Cross) LOS ANGELES, Cal., Oct. 20. Unfriendly newspapers In California have recently made the most of an Insignificant opportunity to put the Ku Klux Klan In a bad Jlght. Seizing upon alleged grievances and a few open criticisms by suspended Klansmen as their pretext, various dailies have undertaken to magnifyout of all proportion the Importance of minor disturbances In a few local organizations. Drastic action is necessary, at times, within the membership of every kind of organization, whether patriotic, fraternal, denominational or purely benevolent. Thla Is equally true of the Ky Klux Klan. Once In a while a member, -for cause, must be suspended' for the good of the order. A. suspended member. If he possesses a glib tongue and a little Influence, finds no difficulty getting Into print. Stories of "uprisings." "rebellions," revolutions" and articles about the "disintegration" of the Klan find conspicuous . positions In hostile papers. "The organization is on Its last legs" reads one tale of alleged difficulties, "and an independent Klan Is forming," continues the recital. Imperial Delegate Replies In regard to the latest "upheaval" sensationally broadcast over the Pacific coast, Imperial Representative G. W. Price authorizes The Fiery Cross to say: "It Is unthinkable that men dedicated In body, In mind, In spirit and in. life to the holy service of our country, our Klan, our homes, each other and humanity have basely repudiated their solemn and sacred oaths." In a letter addressed to members throughout the state Mr. Price asks for the co-operation of all Klansmen In maintaining the good Integrity of the order. He asks that the name of every member, together with his or her card number, guilty of any disloyalty or violation of the Klan oath, be reported to his office. "Treachery, rebellion and malicious slander are within themselves unpardonable violations of our sacred oath and merit immediate trial and, If guilty, banishment," continues the communication. An Important Decision "As Klansmen and Klanswomen," remarks the Imperial Representative, "you are now making the most serious decision of your lifetime. Are you going to turn your back on the most wonderful organization in the world? Have you forgotten the thrice-blnd-lng obligation? Don't you remember how Inspired you were as you knelt at the sacred altar on which were the Holy Bible, the American flag, the sword, the dedication fluid, and the fiery cross? Have you forgotten the words of the Exalted Cyclops as he dedicated you to the holy service of our country?" Mr. Price then declares that no member has been banished for failure to follow the dictates of Klan officials In the last election. The trouble in Los Angeles Klan No. 2 Is traced and specific reference to El Monte and Inglewood disturbances Is made. " 'TIs true," the statement of Mr. Price goes on to say. "a couple of hundred will soon be forgotten their names will be read In open Klavern as suspended members charged with disloyalty and treason to the Klan. Klansmen and Klanswomen who attend any clandestine meetings will be guilty of an offense against the organization ff jmust stand trial in accordance "CJhe constitution of the Klan, Mjwilce says. I. Ofc.SC Are Few The action of the women in Whittler and Montebello was part of the general but futile plan to discredit Mr. Price. Some of the women who withdrew hadbeen banished from the organization. Not mora than a hundred women in all have left the organization, according to best information available. Mr. Price's services In California are known to all Klansmen who are posted on organization work and who are familiar with his disinterested, unselfish and energetic efforts on behalf of the patriotic order throughouTthe state. He possesses the confidence and respect of all who are Intimately associated with him In 1 the service.
President Says Foundation
(Special to The Fiery Cross) WASHINGTON, Oct. 20. Religion was described as "the foundation of government" by President Coolidge at the unveiling of a Btatue to Francis Asbury, pioneer American bishop of the Methodist church It is because of the preaching of Asbury and his associates, the president declared, "that our country has developed so much freedom. The govern-
mi-iii. m a tuuuuy uever gets aneaa oi "It is well to remember this," he aaaeel, when we are seeking for social reforms. Of course, we can help to restrain the vicious and fur-. I nisn a rail- degree of security and protection by legislation and police control, but the real reforms which society in these days, is seeking will come as a result of our religious con--v-lctlons, or they will not come at all. Individual Is Vital "We can not escape n peraounl responsibility for our own conduct. Wt can not retard those sis wise or snfe counselors in public affairs who deny Ihese principles nnd seek to support the theory that society can succeed when the individual falls. 'There is no way by which we can substitute the authority of law for the virtue of man. Pence, justice, hu manity, charity these enn not be legialated into being. They nre the result of n divine grace." From the life of Bishop Asbury, who came to this country as "a preacher before the revolutionary war, the President drew a lesson of sacrifice and devotion which, he said, "has gone into the making of our country." He recalled that the' pioneer bishop traveled approximately 0.000 miles a year, preaching approximately 1G.500 sermons and receiving as his highest salary $S5 a year. He had no idea," Mr. Coolidge said, "that he was preparing men the better to take part In a great liberal movement, the better to take advantage of free institutions, and the better to perform the functions of selfgovernment. He did not come for political motives. He came to bring the gospel to the people. A Lesson In Faith "I do not see how any one could recount the story of this early bishop without feeling a renewed faith in our country. He met a multitude of storms. Many of them caused him sore trials. But he never wavered. He saw wars and heard rumors of war, but whatever may have been the surface appearance, underneath it all our country manifested then and has continued to manifest a high courage, a remarkable strength of spirit, and an unusual ability in a crisis to choose the right course. "Something has continued to guide the people. No tumult has been loud enough to prevent their hearing the atlll small voice. No storm has been violent enough to divert inspired men from constantly carrying the Word of Truth. The contests of the day have but been preparations for victories on the morrow. "Through It all our country has acquired an underlying power of Judgment and stability of action

"America continues lis own way, unchallenged and unafraid. Above all attacks and all vicissitudes, it has arisen, calm and triumphant: not narfect, but marchling on, guided In Its great decisions by the same SDlrlt which suided Francis A3bury. ;ovcriiii:ent Rests on Religion "Our government rests upon re ligion. It is from that source that we derive our reverence for truth and justice, for equality and liberty, and for the rights of mankind. Unless the people believe In these principles, they can not believe in our government. "There are only two main theories of Kovernment in the world. One rests on righteousness, the other rests on force. One appeals to reason, the other appeals to the sword. One is exemplified In a republic, the other Is represented by despotism. "The history of government on this earth has been almost entirely a history of the rule of force held In the bands of a few. Under our constitution, America committed itself to the practical application of the rule of reason, with the power held in the hands of the people. "It la of a great deal of significance that the generntinn which fought the American revolution had seen very extensive religious revival. They had heard the preaching of Jonathan Edwards. They had seen the great revival meetings that were Inspired also by the preaching of AVhltefield. The religious experiences of those days made a profound Impression on the great body of the people. They made new thoughts and created new Interests." JACKSON KLAN BURNS CROSSES AS PROTEST (Special to The Fiery Crusa) JACKSON, Mlsa., Oct. 20.
