KU KLUX IS BARRED FROM INDIANA, RULING
HALF MILLION BIBLES IN HOTELS, GIDEON AIM
(By Associated Press)
SIOUX CITY, la., July 21. The j Gideons whose aim is to place a Bible in each guest room of every hotel in the country, were to be told here Thursday on the opening of their 22nd annual convention that they are rapidly approaching the 500,000 Bible mark. They are but 14,000 short of this, and at their rate of distribution will pass the milepost before the year is out, according to National Secretary A. B. T. Moore of Chicago. Traveling men who make up the Christian Commercial Travellers' association of America number today mqre than 4,000 active members, Mr. Moore reports. The society was started on July 1, 1899, by three men meeting in a little hotel in Janesville, Wis. The Gideons are now organized in M states and have placed Bibles in all of the 48 and in Alaska. Illinois leads in the number of Bibles placed with California second, Mr. Moore reports. Over 48,000 were placed last year, which is short of the banner year's mark, when Bibles cost less and 75,000 were put in the hotels. Last year, however, saw the largest recent shipment made, a distribution of 10,000 Bibles to Atlantic City hotels. The Gideons have set a
mark of 100,000 for themselves for the
next 12 months.
Decision on enlargement of their work through putting out more field secretaries is one of the chief items of business of the three-day convention here. The American Gideons are affiliated with similar societies in Canada and in England.

taken for a test. High winds that came with a storm dashed the model against the building walls and completely demolished it Loudon had worked a year on the model and keepers said he appeared greatly dejected when he saw it In splinters, saying he considered it un
likely that ho would build another. While the rp-sdel, which was patented by the inventor, was only 40 feet long, the inventor planned to use its design in the construction of a craft one thousand feet long and capable, he
declared of carrying one thousand persons across the ocean. He said he spent $6,000 in building the model.
Loudon had attracted considerable
attention In the United States, especially .prior to and during the war, when he was suspected of being a German spy. He was first arrested in 1915, on a charge of bigamy. After
making his escape and being recaptured, he entered a plea of guilty to the
bigamy charge and revealed a plot of
German reservists to invade Canada.
He was later charged with hatching a plot to kidnap President Wilson. In 1919 he was sentenced to three years in Sing Sing for forgery and since becoming a convict he has spent most of his time in the shops working out various inventions.
