Movement to Prevent Seat
ing On at Capital.
EAST AND SOUTH ROUSED
Denial of Seat to Any Exponent
- of Race or Religions Big
, otry Believed Possible.
THE ORBGONIANXEWS BUREAU,
Washington, D. C, July 27. Con
stituencies throughout the United
States which are inclined to elect
Ku Klux Klan candidates to cither
branch of congress wilt do well to
ponder before proceeding to that
end, according to rumors which are
flying thick around the national
capital.
Already an underground move
ment is on to pr&vent the seating
of Earle B. Mayfield, who looks like
the almost certain choice of Texas
voters as United States senator to
succeed Charles A. Culberson. Ene
mies of the Ku K1ux Klan move
ment have dug up a court decision
holding that the Ku Kluz Klan oath
is in contravention of the consti
tution of the United States.
Recent revelations of the unex
pected strength of the Ku Klux
Klan in Texas and Oregon have
aroused both the east and the south.
Iis said that pressure will be
brought in. both parties to compel
the unseating of any Ku Klux Klan
tner sent either to the senate or
house. In the republican party the
negro voter, who holds the balance
of power in several states, is of
course bitter against the Klan.
The Irish, who cast a large vote
in the democratic party in the east,
are lust as nuch against it, and are
able to get about what they want
from that party in such pivotal
states as New York, New Jersey,
Connecticut and Massachusetts.
There is not a state in the east
which the democratic party could
carry at any time without the Irish
vote, which is identified to a pre
ponderant degree with a religion at
which the Ku Klux Klan movement
is definitely aimed.
The Jewish vote is divided be
tween both parties, but possibly
aligned with the republicans more
than with the democrats. There are
several states in which the Jewish
vote could defeat any party which
permitted itself to be dominated by
the advocates of race and religious
hatred.
Such influences, it is said, can
be brought to bear on enough sen
ators to force the denial of a seat
in either branch of congress to
any man sent to Washington as
the exponent of religious or race
bigotry. - i

for Codding as a result of promises
made at the last state convention.
Hanford MacNider, national com
mander of the legion, will be here
all day Friday, instead of Saturday,
as was the original plan, it was
learned today.
Mr. MacNider will arrive from the
Idaho convention at 5 A. M. Friday.
He will speak to delegates and vis
itors at 10 o'clock in the convention
hall. At ,11 o'clock he will address
the legion auxiliary at the Elks'
temple. At 12 o'clock, following a
band concert at the temple, Mr. Mac
Nider will give a public address.
In the afternoon he will again speak
to the delegates, and he will leave
about 4 o'clock, either by train or
by auto, lor Hood River.
Exhibitions 'of fancy diving were
aTlven at the dip during the late aft
ernoon, with "Happy" Kuhn and
Neil Hide in the stellar roles. A
uniformed military ball, held in the
auditorium dancing pavilion, topped
ell the day.
Auxiliary. Lacks Quorum.
At the morning session of the
legion auxiliary, which opened its
second annual convention today, an
Insufficient number of delegates
waa in attendance to make up
quorum. Only 29 out of the 61 units
in the state were represented, it
was found after a check. Accord-1
Ins to the constitution, 40 units are
necessary to make uj a quorum.
The morning session was accord
ingly adjourned until 1:30, by which
time a sufficient number of addi
tional representatives was present
to make up a quorum.
Only about 600 legionnaires at
tended the opening session this
morning, when Mayor Stadelman
and Circuit Judge "Wilson extended
the welcome of the community to
the visitors. -The registration had
increased to 750 this afternoon, how
ever, and it was expected that the
1000 mark would be passed tonight.
In Wis address Mayor Stadelman
read a note from Chief of Police
Heater, which stated that expert
burglars had entered, the city jail
between midnight last week and
this morning and removed all the
locks. It would take at least a
week to fix them, the mayor said.
Judge Wilson added that his court
would be one of egress and not
one of ingress, during the conven
tion week.
City Give Key.
Commander Goodell presided this
morning and accepted the gold key
to the city, which was presented bj
the mayor. The mayor thanked
legionaires for holding their con
vention here and pointed out that
it -was significant that it was be
ing held in the new civic auditor
ium, which was erected as a memor
ial to Wasco county soldiers who
fought in the world war.
Commander Goodell responded
for the legion and Mrs. W. A. Elvers
for the legion auxiliary. A num
ber of suggestions, which he hoped
might be passed upon at the pres
ent convention, were made by Mr
Goodell when he took the floor
again. He recommended that all
past commanders of the state de
partment be made delegates at
large to the national convention
and said that never In the state'
history would there be more than
60 of these.
He further advised that it be
made a rule that no man holding a
political office in the state, either
elective or appointive, outside of
municipal positions, be permitted
to hold office In the state depart
ment or the legion.

I It 'France Insists on Reparations
World Must Suffer, Believes
Illinois Representative.
AURORA, I1L, July 27. (By the
Aeeoclated Press. )i Representative
Ira- C Copley of this city, who has
just returned from an extended eco
nomic survey of Europe for the
United States government, favors a
moratorium on international obliga
tions, he said today.
"No man after visiting the towns
or villages of Prance," said Mr.
Copley, "can question France's moral
right to great reparations. But if
, France were to get that wnica she
asks it would bring about the eco
nomic collapse of the - civilized
world."
Moratorium Held JTeeeenlty.
Mr. Copley said that the first step
necessary to restore prosperity to
the United States and the world wae
an agreement to a moratorium of at
least two years.
He declared himself satisfied that
France, in the economic interests of
the world, must reduce its demands
for reparations to actual costs of
repairs, which he figures at l,0OU
O0O.W0 to 150O,0'0'&,00. If France
should insist on the payment of the
$54,000,000,000 awarded by the Ver
sailles peace treaty, Germany would
be compelled to continue on its
I lowered standard of living and this
would bring about a lower standard
in the United Statee and over the
entire world to meet the competition
of the German workmen, Mr. Copley
believes.
German Labor Paid 30 Cents Day.
"So Isng as Germany must pay
the tremendous reparations France
demands," said the congressman.
"Germany will have to flood the
world's markets with her goods to
raise the money. And to win the
world's markets, she' must sell her
goods at a lower figure than those
of the country to which she sends
her products. .
"To produce her goods at the re-
Quired vastly lesser cost, Germany
must pay her workers a very low
wage. They are getting on the av
erage of about 30 cents a day in
gold, the Frenchman about $2 and
the Briton about the same."
During his tour, which lasted al-
1 most three months, Mr. Copley vis
ited Great Britain, Germany, France
Austria, Italy, Hungary, Switzer
land, Czecho-Slovakia and Belgium

stitution of the universe the fun

problem.
Photographic Work Important.
'The whole of the regular work
with this telescope and most others
is photographic The light- of the
star focused on the narrow slit of
the spectroscope is spread out into
a multi-colored spectrum, which is
generally crossed by numerous dark
lines, and when photographed on a
sensitive plate, a permanent record I
cf the lines is obtained. Only very
large telescopes can be used effec
tively for spectroscopic observation
of faint stars and that is one of the
reasons the 72-inch is principally
devoted to that work.
"The astronomers at this observa
tory are giving a considerable por
tion of their time to this phase, and
have now made a notable contribu
tion to knowledge along this line,
perhaps at present the most impor
tant."
Plankett Star Revealed. '
It' was when the light from this
ordinary looking star was analyzed
by the spectroscope that its unique
properties were revealed.
The first spectrum was photo-
fraphed on December 16, 1921. This
showed it to be of a rare class, not
only of the -very hottest but .of the
most massive. Examination of this
and subsequent spectra, about 30 in
till, showed that many of the lines
due to hydrogen and helium were
not single, as is ordinarily the case.
but were double a sure indication
that instead of being one star, it
consisted of two stars too close to
gether to be separated byany telescope.
Spectroscope Details System.
"Merely from the quality of the
light coming from it," said Dr. Plas
kett," with the aid of the spectro
scope we have been able to deduce
these principal facts:
The system, which is 10,000 light
years away, consists ..of two enor
mous suns, each at a temperature
of about 30,000 degrees Fahrenheit,
revolving around one another at a
distance of about 55,000,000 miles at
speeds of 128 and 154 miles a second,
respectively, in about 14.4 days. The
trighter, heavier and slower of the
two stars is nearly 20 times the
diameter'of our sun, more than 76
times as massive and 15,000 times
as bright.
Mass of Star Extraordinary.
'The fainter, lighter and faster
moving star is about 18 times the
diameter of our sun and more than
63 times as heavy and 12,000 times
as bright. The star is especially re
markable for its enormous mass,
about four times as great as any
previously determined. It is also
much brighter than any known star
in the sky. Our sun sinks to in
significance beside it. The second
brightest known star, Rigel, is 'only
half the brightness ot this pair."
Astronomy, according to the doc
tor, is no longer the comparatively
simple science of lvv years ago,
when observations were entirely
visual. It has become the most
highly organized of the sciences.
Exhaustive Study Necessary.
Exhaustive study is necessary of
the individual stars of the system of
which our sun is a obmparatively
insignificant member. This appar
ently endless and hopeless task, as
there are probably 1000 million stars
in the universe, of which only about
bOOO have been attacked, neverthe
less already has resulted in consid
erable knowledge "of our surround
ings in space.
"And we may be certain that
there are as many opportunities for
individual effort jand success in as-
