“There has to be a rejuvenation of Marion County's whole tax collection and bookkeeping system,” Circuit Judge Earl R. Cox declared today during a hearing on the controversial tax delinquent sale issue. ‘It is high time we get a foolproof tax collection and bookkeeping system,” he said. The treasurers record on tax delinquent prop-| is about 90 per cent incorrect] and it seems to me that it is impossible for officers to comply with my orders. Attorneys for the real dealers who seek to buy this have followed the law and are entitled to what thev have asked for.”

MAN CHOSEN AS KLAN HEAD
James Arnold Colescott Is Made Imperial Wizard For Four Years.
CALLS JEWS MINORITY
‘Fiery Cross Will Blaze’ to ‘Mop Up Alien Influence,’ He Says.
ATLANTA, Ga, June 10 (U. P). —James Arnold Colescott, 42-year-old former veterinarian of Terre Haute, Ind., today was chosen imperial wizard of the Ku-Klux Klan and immediately announced Klan {plans to “mop up alien influences” |in this country.
Dr. Colescott, a professional Klan worker for 16 years, succeeded Dr. Hiram Wesley Evans, who had held the top rank in the robed and hooded order since 1922. Dr. Evans says he did not retire or resign—“I merely did not offer | for re-election.”
Answer Is Guarded
There had been reports that Dr.4 Evans would be shunted aside to, make way for a more militant lead- | er. Dr. Colescott, however, was! chief of Evans’ staff prior his |
elevation to grand wizard. Evans discounted rumors he would] continue to guide the destinies of [the organization.

RUN JEWS BACK AND FORTH AT FRONTIER
WARSAW, June 10 (U.

Finally, 15 of the Jews obtained permission to remain in Poland but the remainder were transported back to Germany. Similar tactics were recently re-

WITH THE ROYAL PARTY AT THE NEW YORK WORLD'S FAIR, June 10.—King George VI of Great Britain and Queen Elizabeth, flushed with heat and the excitement of an uproarious New York welcome, visited the World's Fair today as its prize attraction. They rode into the fair grounds on Flushing Meadows after a mo-
tor trip around the outer edges of Manhattan, where, on the baking sidewalks of New York, an estimated 2,500.090 persons roared greeting to the Old World sovereigns come to visit the New World and the World of Tomorrow. The temperature mounted toward
: | the nineties and there were occa-
sional thunder showers. Their Majesties arrived for an afternoon of seeing the World's Fair wonders. with particular attention to the exhibits of the British Empire. The King and Queen rode up to the fair's Boulevard Gate in an automobile which led a doz2n other cars over the Triborough Bridge from Manhattan. On their arrival they were greeted by a 21- -gun salute as they drove to Perylon Hall for official reception by Grover A. Whalen.
13,000 Police Inadequate
The thousands who lined the streets from the Battery, where Their Majesties debarked a half hour before noon from the destroyer Warrington, which had ferried them across New York Bay from Sandy Hook, gave the 13,382 policemen assigned to royal duty a difficult time. They broke through two lines on the Queensborough side of the Triborough Bridge. Police were able to keep them only from running onto the street.
They debarked at the Battery from the destroyer Warrington which brought them from Sandy {Hook and were swept immediately into the tumult of a New York welcome. Their Majesties came down the gangplank from the Warrington and were welcomed by Mayor Fiorelio H. La Guardia and Governor Lehman. The Queen again favored light blue for her gown, with hat of the same color. The King wore formal morning clothes with high gray hat, The heat-weary George and Elizabeth rode in a bullet-proof automobile.

At the Battery Their Majesties missed one of the sights of the town. Instead of wearing a brown derby, former Governor Alfred E. Smith was there in a top hat. He was one of the earliest arrivals for the ree ception.
The rain began shortly after Their Majesties arrived, while they were still in Perylon Hall. When they came out, a few large drops were still falling. Perylon Hall was decorated with $1,000,000 worth of art treasures from the fair's exhibits. A carpet on which Louis XIV of France once tread was spread for the King and
Queen there. Gobelin tapestries that
had been the pride of the Empress Eugenie were on the wall. A chair that Louis XVI presented to the
crown of Prussia was placed out
for King George's use. At 12:40 there was a reception at the Federal Building at the fair grounds and lunch was eaten (Continued on Page Three)
