Fleming Time* Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Oct. 21.—The Ku-Klux Klan la on the dissecting table before Senator James A. Reed as the Anti-Saloon League staggers out of the operating room. Reed called his first witness in the Indiana senatorial election probe, late Wednesday and before that witness had finished testifying the Indiana investigation had boomed into what may be a national investigation of the Klan and its part in national politics. Wednesday night a half dozen new committee subpoenas went flying out for Indiana Klan officials, past and present and Indications are others may be issued for Klan national officials. The D. C.

A Huge Man The lone Indiana witness before tlm committee was Hugh Pat Emmons, a huge man who looks like the cartoonists’ conception of a political boss, and who was formerly head of the Valley Klan No. 53, South Bend, Ind., which seceded from the klan under Emmons and has been formed into an independent order. Emmons’ testimony, whfch was clearly that of an embittered man, and which has yet to be checked up, but which nevertheless aroused Reed’s burning interest, included the following points: That Hiram Wesley Evans, Klan imperial wizard, had told him the Klan ‘purposed to make United States Senator J. E. Watson of Indiana President, and that when he was elected the Klan would “march right through the White House.” That the Indiana Klan is working for Watson and Robinson for Senator, and that he, Emmons, a Democrat, was ousted, bgpause he would not line up for Watson, and that he had been offered SIO,OOO to line up. That the national order included probably 5,000,000 members at its peak; that the Indiana Klan, once numbering 400,000 under D. C. Stephenson had dropped to between 27,000 and 30,000. That Evans had told him the Klan owed Watson a debt of gratitude, because Watson had "got to Senator Moses of New Hampshire, and had had one of the best Klansmen in the United States, Senator Mayfield, seated. Emmons kept Reed and the spectators laughing and puzzled at the weird procession of wizards, cyclops, klockards, klaziks and dragons, identified as various grades of higher klan officers, which he detailed. Reed figured that Indiana citizens had probably contributed $5,900,000 or more to Stephenson and the national officials in the $lO admission fee, the $5 night shirt fee and the $9 annual dues which he said all klansmen had to pay. Reed estimated Stephenson’s share alone during the years he was in power in Indiana at $1,200,000. Robes cost more as you went up the scale, Emmons explained, some of the rainbow velveet habilaments of higher Klan officers costing as much as SSO each. There is a $5 fee for initiation into the Knights of the Kamelias, the next higher grade than plain Klansman, Emmons said. The initiation for this grade includes a play, which portrays the terrible death of “Arnold, the Traitor,” a Klan quitter. As Arnold died he turns up his shoe soles to the audience, Emmons said, upon them being printed "Arnold, the Traitor, Who Died Without a Country.”

LEADERS OF BOTH PARTIES SILENT ON TIFF RATE Proposed Modification of Trade Barriers Causes Sensation. Bv United Press _ „ WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.—Pronouncement of international bankers for modification <Jf commerce barriers between nations has caused a sensation among political leaders of both parties. With the congressional election less than two weeks away there was grave speculation here today as to how this unexpected accorti would be used by the Democratic and Republican candidates in the closing days of the campaign. Not a single Democratic. Republican or Independent leader at the capital would comment publicly upon what they privately discussed as the most sensational development of the campaign. The statement of J. P. Morgan and other international banking agencies here and abroad for relinquishing of tariff and other trade harries (later modified to apply particularly to European countries) was followed by a statement# from Thomas Lamont, Football Players Use Joint-Ease Lameness and Soreness Rub It In—Tube 60 Cents

head of Morgan and Company for debt cancellation. Democrats Cautious Democrats guardedly accepted the tariff manifesto as an indication of sympathy for' the Democratic program of tariff reduction. Republicans were divided, some siding with President Coolidge against tampering with the tariff, expressing fear that the program would lead to “free trade” and others (members of the farm group) fearing to express any sentiment for fear of being caught siding with Street bankers. „ A leader of the Senate irreconcilables declared the statements appeared offhand to be an effort to aid bankers in collection of money they have loaned to Europe and promised official comment today. A Democratic leader favoring the League of Nations, the World Court and low tariff said: “If the bankers are sincerely with us then nothing we can say will do any good and if they are not, nothing we can say will do any good.” The bankers’ manifesto had “no political coloring whatsoever,” Julius H. Barnes, vice president for the United States of the International Chamber of Commerce, declared in a statement. A giant eagle killed recently at Huntington, W. Va., measured almost eight feet between wing tips and weighed more than 150 pounds.

THIS IS THE AGE of progress and specialization and I therefore believe it right and proper that the people be advised of the progress in dentistry as well as In other lines. For almost n century dentistry has been fettered by a long antiquated traditional policy of secrecy which now, happily. Is giving Way to straightforward, honest publicity, assuming the same right thereto us the church, the bank, or any other legitimate business. From my experience as a dentist-for many yeors, I have learned that a great many people suffer from diseased gums and aching teeth through neglect from a sense of fear anil dread of the dental chair. However, I am glad to inform you that our methods are modern anil painless. Simply berr.use your grandfather was hurt is no reason why you should neglect your teeth through fear of the dental chair. Scleni-e Ims taken the pain out of dentistry. There Is a lot more pain in neglecting your teeth than there Is In having them eared for.
