EOnOR ALLEN DISCUSSES m ACTIONSINKANSAS Principal IVlenace, He Asserts, Is Lawlessness of Organization. By HENRY J. ALLKN Govemor of Kansas Copyright, 1022, by United Press GREAT BEN'D, Kas., Oct. 31.—The Principal menare of thè Ku-Klux Klan ls In thè lawleesness lt suggests. i It arouses thè mob splrit and lts poi- 1 lev of eecrecy and masklng prò videa i a eloak bohlnd which acts of outlawry and crlmo are commltted. While illese atta may not always be commltted by klansmen, they are committed In tho eloak adopted by thè j klan. W'hen we seek for thè responsible heads of thè organlzation they cannot be sound. Yesterday a new ; masked order calling itseif “thè true j blue’’ made lts appearance in Okla- j homa. lts masked meoibers at- i tempted to carry away thè constatale | of a township and when thè flght tvau; ' over one man was dead and several woundeJ. Twnormw it may be another rnasked order wearlng black masks. Asks reriulsslon to Ann ' Every day there comes to me some : terrorìzed man asklng permission to j ami hiniself oecauso he ls afraid of ! thè Klan. The furtlveness with which ! thè Klan ls carritd on. thè terrorolsm • il inspiri 1 ® and thè deeds tliat have 1 been ilone in lts name, all unite to | produce a conditlon that cannot be tol- 1 erated in a State that taelieves in lav i and order. The Attorney General ha.* been direct ed to brlng proceedings of | ouster agaJnst thè order as soon as he ; can locate thè responsible heads of it- j “The Klan has no charter to do business in this State, as all Incorpo- , rat ed organizations dolng business in i Kansas must have. If thè Ku-Klux Klan continues to grow and thè retaliatory measures also multlply then \ve will have In thè United States thè j dangers of a race war. We will also j bave in many communitles that curse , tv hi eh has bathed Ireland In blood, a war between religious bigots. “There exists in thè laws of this ; land protectlon to every man in hi* ‘ civil and religious rlght. The ad- ; ministratiou of these laws is in thè ; hands of a govemment created by i thè people. To set up now thè theory , that any organization may have thè j rlght to take thè law into lts own ' hands is to destroy all that has been builded through thè sacri si ce of those that have given their lives to build bere a free land.” “.Meuace" of thè Klan “The Principal menace of thè Klan is in thè lawlessness it suggests,” ; Govemor Alien declared today in a | telegram to thè United Press. “It arouses thè mota splrit.’’ he said. j "and its policy of seorecy and mask j ing provides a eloak hehlnd which, acts of outlawry and criine are com- { mitted. When we seek for thè re-1 sponsible heads of this order they can- 1 rot be sound. Evei-y day tIK-r* comes : le. ine some terrorized mah asking per mission to .irm himself because he ls afraid of thè Klan. “The furtiveness with which thè : Klan is oarrying on its work. che ter rcrism it insptrea and thè deeds that have been done in its name. all unite to produce a cor.dition that cannot he tolerated in a State that beiieves in i law and order.”

OLD MAN JAZZ DIES AT KEITH’S Magidan at Lyric —Palace Retains Entertainers

By WALTER D. IIiCKMAS Hang thè crepe on Old Man Jazz and place a lily in his hand. One hundred per cent olassical music is “stopping” thè present show at B. F. Kelth’s. Don’t believe it? It is thè truth and thè best pari of it is that it is honest appreciation by thè audience and equally hon cs t arttstr.v on thè pari of thè musicians. The Ilege- jàjj&g™’ due Sistcrs. Margit and Henna, Pi * T young Hungarian y* ; • conceri violinista, \ and Juan lteycs, ... WJ planist, are thè / ones who place , thè lily and thè crepe on thè corpse of Old Man ' f Jazz. Am not saying that thè Jazz monarci will stay in his grave very Rilly Yan long, but he ls dead for a week anyway at Kelth’s. The Ilegedus Slsters have been in this country only a short time, but they have brought thè intelligence and thè beauty of thè concert stage In all of its dignlty to thè vaudeville stage. The music offered is strictly class loal. Chopin nover heard of jazz, but i a vaudeville audience yesterday afterj noon applauded and loved thè reai, melodious melody of this great eomposer. I don’t care who succeeded in presentIng thè Hegedus Sisters and Reyes on thè vaudeville program, but I am sure that I would flnd them upon a Keith vaudeville program if any one dared to present such strictly classical players. Reyes is a rare artist. He knows his piano. He plays from thè hoart and head and not merely from thè wrists to tho finger tlps. What a pleasure it ls to bear a vaudeville audience rlght here In Indianapolis applaud and honor these three "worthwhilo artists. (I feci llke yelling from Joy.) Bllly B. Van and his partner in a fun wave are back with us. The partner is Jim Corbett. He is a good "foil” for Yan’s welrd outbursts of fun. Yan stili possesses his “red index card” containlng thè spioy for men only story. The proper Mr. Corbett will not let Bllly teli lt. Van gets on a stage souse. It’s a masterpiece. Polite hoakum. Show and Columbus with Harriet Hoctor present "Promise Me,” a pleaslng demonstration of thè dance. Miss Hoctor is a gifted toc dancer. Charles Harrison and Sylvia Daktn aro de lieiously originai In “The Three of Us.” There is somethlng new under : thè sun. Alice Hamilton while dressed as a i grandma uses thè fiapper language of ! thè day. Rupert Ingalese ani company open thè show. The only reai “sad” moments troni an entertaining standpoint are contrihuted by Krnr.k Kellam and Patricia O’Dare In “Chaslng thè Blues.’’ Tltey chased no blues from me. They gave me thè blues.

A rnaglcian is thè reai sensation on thè bill at thè Lyric. ’Bout all thè scenery that tlils man, Judson Cole, carries ls a table, an egg or two and a pack of cards. This cole Individuai "sells” his personality thè minuto he walks onto thè stage. He takes thè tricks woll 1-nown to everybody, but he clothes them in his own personallty. The result is that everything seems new. He oven selects two chlldren from thè audience. The kind we always see in a theater when a rnaglcian is near. Gosh, liow this man reaps thè laughs from them. Cole has showmanshlp. 110 ls human and he knows his audience. Quite a triumph In pereonality. natrice Morelle and her sextette belongs to that better group of musical entertainers. Tho act is nearly overdressed, but thè settings and thè gowns look mighty rich. An act of inerlt. 1 expected much from Mary Ryan, 1. X. Emrnet and thè others in "The Liquor Pirate.” This sketch misses Mre and punch. The ending—a female Federai liquor law onforcement agent falls In love with a klng hootlegger—is mighty weak staff. I am confused in tho name of one act, but it ls thè act In which a couple makes its appearance singlng about thè stage door being open and they Just carne in to say hello and then good by. A ilice act. Sorry I don’t know their nanies. The Bonnny Pender Troupe, an unique organlzation, gain is on vlew. They offer somethìng dlfferent, ranging from acrobatica to singlng and dancing. Frank Helms is announced as thè versatile entertalner. I mlssed thè opening act. My fault. At thè Lyric ull week. Second Week for Entertainers Ben Meroflf and Lloyd Ibach’s Entertainers are being held over this week at thè Palace, following their sensatlonal success last week. The players aro thè sanie, but their program ls dlfferent. The remainder of tho talli fs entirely different from last week. Peggy and Polly succeed In gettlng some unique fun from a thlng called "Johnny’s New Car.” There ls nothing new about this net. A triek automobile ls used. The reai comedy asset of thè act is thè droll comedian who owiis thè trlck car. hyman and Barton, a singer and a pianlst, bave Individuai tnaterfal and a naturai way of dellvering lt.

idea how varlous people play "Under thè Shade of thè Old Apple Tree.” Bell and Ève appear in an act calied "Fun at thè Soda Fountain." The two members of thè team are entertaining. The bill ineludes Mason and Rooney, two girls, in songs and conversations. Fair. The movie pari of thè bill is devoted to King Vldor’s “Love Nevor Dles,” a movie which starts out to be powerfully honest, but becomes strangely theatrical. It has thè best train wreck I ever have seen on thè screen. At thè Palace all week. •I- -I- -IC’onceming “Planlation Days” In thè first place "Plantation Days” ls not “Shufflo Along.” There should ho no mlsunderstandlng that. As revealed at tho Shubert-Park this week “Plantation Days” contains a very poor first part, with thè exceptlon of Elgar’s Orchestra. The second part saves thè show from ordinary entertainment. All members of thè company are negroes. Ah far as I am concerned thè first partis made ordlnary because some of thè players make too much effort to play to thè audience. Harris and Holley, in an act called “The Piano Movers,” obtaln recognition when they start shooting dice. Marjorie Slpp appears In thè first nart singing, as thè program unnounces, "Shufflo Along Hits.” The second part opens with “Ukolele Blues,” an attempt to do a wiggly dance thlng. Tho costumes, what ! there is of them, are ridi in appear ! ance. Tho chorus “Works” every minute. George Pasha does thè snrt of dancing which holds up thè show. IVy me Pasha and thè Piantatimi Four. ! a quartetto, are thè whole show. Da ve | and Tressle are dancers. The man has some clever material. Marjorie Sipps, \ w hile singlng "Jorry." doesn’t come up to her work In thè first part. The “Johnny" chorus ls good. During thè last minute of thè show Baby Theda Deas appears and causes a sensation. She ls a cute littlo step per. The finale has pienty of dash and pop. The women of thè company are better gowned than any eolored show seen here in my experlence. Be your own jmige on this show. You mny ravo over it. That is noth lng agninsl you. I have my own Idea. Have yours. That’s fair. At thè Shubert-Park all week. Rialto ls in Styla There ls nothing slow about thè Rialto these days, for they bave gonfiato thè ranks of tho classica for new material.
