THE KLAN MEETS AGAIN (From The Charleston News and Courier) i The Ku Klux Klan, slapped down thoroughly in North ί Carolina, held a meeting and burned a cross near Lake ! City Wednesday night. Thomas L. Hamilton, the grand dragon for the Carolinas was unable to attend because he ι is doing a stretch in a North Carolina prison for floggings. r A robed but unmasked "grand titan" was present. He; ι declined to give his name. He said he was a subscriber f to The News and Courier and he described Hamilton as 1 a "living monument" to the Klan cause. If Hamilton is a living monument, he is now living where all ruthless floggers and persons who take the law into their own hands should reside. Our subscriber, the "grand titan," need not fear to reveal his name if he is a law abiding citizen. But if he intends to wear Hamilton's [ shoes, he had better watch his step. Already he is tread t ing dangerous ground. J Sharing the platform with the "grand titan weanes-i . day was a woman in gold robes who said she represented I i the Klansmen's auxiliary, known as the "Big Sisters." * The function of the "Big Sisters" is not exactly clear to us. Perhaps they administer mercy by applying band I ages to the wounds inflicted by the Klansmen's whips. f Obviously, an outfit such as Hamilton's Klan needs a full i time group of "Big Sisters" to roll bandages, repair whips 5 and mend sheets. j The story of Hamilton's Klan, as unfolded during trials last summer in Whiteville, was a disgusting tale of irre > I sponsible sadism. The Hamilton Klan is not merely a J ί symbol of bad racial relations, because whites and Ne - i groes alike have felt the cutting sting of Klansmen's whips. The Hamilton Klan is an affront to decent people j everywhere, and violates the principles of law and order e i on which all civilized societies are founded. % > In addition, the Klan does untold damage to the South J by playing into the hands of those Northern "liberals" t who want to place Southern racial relations under Federal * control. · Park Committee Schedules Land Clearing For Thursday AIRMEN COMPLETE BASIC Horace Μ.
