Here 1* what William Pick ens. writing In the Pittaburgh Cour ier. has to any on the subject: KLAN AND SCHOOLS Indiana Ku Klux Plan to Oust Colored Children “Told you ao!" the Jim crow school idea follow* the Ku Klux Klan like a shadow. In Indiana they have op ened campaign to 'put the Negro chil dren out of our school*.’ Why? Be cause you cannot give a people equal education and perpetually deny them an unequal status in society. In com mon school the Negro will get equal education. He will never get it In any segregated school. And yet some of the easy-going, lasy. hope-to-have-to-donothing Ne groes are always saying: 'The Ku Klux ain't after us; they're after the Catholic* and Jews." And bless your soul, in Oregon the Ku Klux are try ing to enact law* to compel Catho lic* and Jew* to get into the public schools, while in Indiana they are trying to enact laws to put the Ne gro out The most fundamental proposition of the Ku Klux Klan is “white su premacy,'* and both Catholics and Jew* can qualify under that. The Kentucky wing of the Klan 1* trying to explain, a* we write, that a Jew can become a Klansman by be coming a “Christian.” and that a Catholic can become a Klansman by becoming a “Protestant”—that is a hard-shell Baptist, a Holy Roller, or anything like that And how can a black man become a Klar.sman? By becoming a white man. That is, the Negro is the only IMPOSSIBLE. So tar as the Klan is concerned, the one permanent, irredeemable society out cast is the American Negro If the Kian can effect IL your children will be forced out of school, you will be forced out of citixenschip. and your race will be given a Mississippi status in Minnesota. No, the "Klan ain’t after us," it thinks it has got us. They will have another think coming, for not alj Negroes can be fooled by church do nation* and flattering grocery-store talk. Everywhere we go, some colored preacher or politician informs us: “You know, Mr. 8o-and-So was talk ing to me this mawnin.’ and he aay* thia Klan ain't aimin' at colored peo ple. They want to get these Jew* and Catholics.” Even if that were not a lie, we should hate them for it. GOV. PIERCE TO BE Fleer in TO Mercantile NEW Bank Building New York. N. Y„ July 8. 1923.
