MEDFORD, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 192'J NO. 214 KNIGHTS COLUMBUS PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 2!!. The Denver Knlgtlis of Columbus liavo roccived tho astonishing Information thnt thoy are in tho habit of attend ing Protestant revival meetings wearing masks, just like the Ku Klux Klan. A protestnnt minister who re cently conducted a revival in Hanger, Texas, gave out this information there, saying that the1 council hud acted up at a service ho conducted hero. A prominent business man of Hanger was curious enough to inves tigate the cate and wroto to Grand Knight John Loo Stack, who Imme diately informed him by wire that the Knights here do not go masked and are not afraid to let the entire world know where thuy stand. Kdward R. Maher of Hanger, who wroto for information, said in his letter to Mr. Stack: "Rev. E. J. Bulgin, Presbyterian evangelist, has recently concluded a joint revival in Ranger which was conducted under tho auspices of the various Protestant denominations. During tho last fow days of their re vival Mr. Bulgin made the assertion, privately, that he had recently con ducted a similar revival in Denver, at whlc? time the Knights of Colum bus of Denver visited his meeting place In a body, masked. "Mr. Bulgin was prompted to make this statement by reason of the fact that a woman who had participated in his revival here remonstrated with him because ho had permitted the Ku Klux Klan to march through his tabernacle robed and masked during his meeting. .In replying to her he said that that was simply their night at his meeting, and then went on to say that ho had recently conducted a meeting In Denver at which time the Knights of Columbus "attended. The woman replied that she did not suppose they were masked. Ho re sponded by saying they were. "I will sincerely appreciate your giving me any information you may have relative to Mr. pidgin's revival in Denver, wholhor or not lio ha3rc tually conducted one there recently. or at any time, and It so, If ho ex tended an invitation to tho Knights of Columbus to attend, and it they attended in any considerable number, either individually or in a body, or if they in any manner whatsoever hud nny ..connection., or., association with Mr. Bulgin or tho revival." In his reply Mr. Stnck wroto: "Wo have never heard of this man conducting a so-called revival in Denver. His statement that Knights of Columbus attended his meeting In masks is a damnable lie. Knights of Columbus do not go In masks. We are not ashamed to let tho entire world know who we are nor the prin ciples for which we staud. Evangelist Bulgin maintains a resi dence in Portland and has been heard In these parts from time to time. Ho preached a revival in Medford. L MYSTER! N. P. M.

Important among the changes voted yesterday was an amendment necessi tating the authorization by congress eajh year of payments from the mer chant marine fund to operators of American ships, this being generally viewed among members not only as doing away with a permanent appro priation but also as affording a check on expenditures.
