M. K. Wlgton, president of Port

and trust the O. A. R. P., Ltd.. na

cleanse the state headquartera of tte
self-seekers who are wrecking the
movement."
Wlgton also said "we positively
refuse to recognise the leadership
and policies of tha present state
leaders."
State Manager Logan earlier this
week cited officials of club 7 to ex
plain why ordera to bar Luther

Ignored. A substitute sent by Logan
to a club meeting was denied tht
floor.
Officials of the -club declined to
attend a scheduled meeting with
state leaders.
Wlgton. In his letter to Logan, ex
pressed the hope "we will be again
Invited to Join when the cleansing
process Is finished."
Logan replaced Charlea Hansen a
atate manager a month ago. Since
that time, controversies over en
dortement of eandldatea. club apeak
ers, leadership and campaign funds
led regional headquarters to aeno
Weir from Los Angeles to straighten
out the difficulties.
Weir termed the controversies due
to "mftvoldable confusion."
