Under the caption of “The Criticism of the Crisis,” Dean Kelly Miller ol Howard University replied to the criti cisms of his organization, knowL. as the Sanhedrin and in so doing remains in the upper atmosphere of legitimate discussion. He says: Just as I had finished inditing the last sentence, some one called my at tention to the May issue of the Crisis which contains a poinled criticism of the Sanhedrin by the learned and bril liant editor. As usual the opinion breathes an aid of finality for which the learned doctor is famous. He belit tles the movement because it did noi indulge in vacous denunciation and sonorous pronouncements on housing, intermarriage, union labor and the Ku Klux Klan. One wonders if the learn ed editor has lost his grip on domestic conditions during his brief sojourn' abroad. While chasing the chimera of the Pan African Conference and func j tioning for the moment as Envoy Ex-, tra Ordinary in the Court of Monrovia,! perhaps the common place procedure of the Negro Sanhedrin seemed prosaic and tame. Garvey in his robes as Em peror of Africa and Du Bois arrayed in the glamour and glory of ambassa dorial splendor form indeed interest ing spectacles for the American Negr-i to look at. We all desire the ultimate redemption of Africa albeit the pro grams of Garvey and DuBois may seem equally impractical and bizarre. What can be said of this admirable dissection of the two leaders? In asso ciating Du Bois with Garvey, upon a basis of absolute equality, he has made a “home thrust" at tbe brilliant editor of the Crisis. The satire is causti- and the irony “biting.” He continues: Dr. Du Bois complains that the San hedrin brought on new ideas in the treatment of well-known evils. This was far from the purpose of the pro moters. It might be said in passing that if my good friend, the editor of the Crisis has any new ideas on the topics mentioned in his criticism, he very studiously hides them from the readers of his journal. The aim of tne Sanhedrin is not to find new nostrums for segregation or auy specific racial evil. The N. A. A. C. Pj the Equal Rights League, the Race Conference, and other civil rights organizations are devoted to this task. The Sanhedrin proposes to federate and focus the whole machinery of race agencies up on the point of greatest pressure for the moment. It will work in, through and by and any existing organization to accomplish the end desired. The basis has been laid for the effeotive co operation of agencies of the widest variety of type upon all problems and issues which are race pride and race deep. The above defines with admirable correctness the definite scope and pur pose of the Sanhedrin and disavows any purpose or intention to supercede anw existing organizations. Dr. Miller concludes his remarks with a telling rebuke, coupled with “biting” sarcasm, when he says: I It is deeply to e regretted that so influential a journal as the Crisis should place itself in the negative col umn upon a movement that is all but universally deemed potential of the | largest racial good. It is interesting to note, however, that this is the de clared opinion of Dr. W. E. Du Bois. , and does not pretend to commit the Crisis beyond the range of his person 1 al authority. Let it also be hoped that] the editor will change his opinion on the revelation of new light or in plac-] ing himself in a more friendly and fav< orable attitude to the light already re vealed. . It is unfortunate that these disagree-] ments should exist among our own dis tinguished leaders. We indulge in the hope that: this kind of discussion will cease and in the language of Gen. U. S. Grant, we may all join in saying, ‘.Let us have peace.” -w STARTLING DISCLOSURES. The announcement that Hon. Oscar Underwood of Alabama and his organi zation will make the Ku Klux Klan an issue before the National Democratic Convention at New York and charging that the Hon. William G.Tvfc Adoo and his organization are the champions of that sinister organiza tion comes to the public at this time in the nature of a bomb-shell. It is d.ffl cult to understand just what all of this means. Here is an organization which will forever remain linked with the dark est period in southern history now be ing condemned by one of the ablest leaders this section has ever produced. The reason for this is that the iniqui tous machinery formerly used exclus ively to operate, persecute and torture Negroes is now being utilized to per form a similar service upon those white people, who disagree with this scc:rt. houtect orgnnizatio.i an 1 refuse to obey its mandates. The following extracts from the re port from Washington during the in-( vestlgation of the election of Senator Mayfield of Texas will prove to he of interest: Cruelties attributed to the Ku-Klux Klan and “inside” details about that organization, featured the hearing to day of the committee taking testimony in the contest of G. E. B. Peddy for the the seat of Senator Earl B. Mayfield of Texas. Erwin J. Clark, of Houston,, was the star witness. He testified that at one time he was a judge at Waco 'Texas, and later served as general counsel for the Ku-Klux Klan at a salary of $15, 000 per annum. Clark said he resigned from the Klan and gave up his legal connection when he realized that the Klan was setting up a super govern ment, ‘.an invisible empire in a liter al sense, which sought to control elec tions and to dictate legislation.” All women in the room were asked ’to leave before Clark would tell of the barbarous cruelties practiced on a mu latto doctor. One has but to imagine the tortures of the Middle Aged the fiendish atroci ties of the Spanish Inquisition, in or der to realize and comprehend just what this silence, this veil of charity, this concession to decency means' when women were excluded from the hear ings and the actual testimony given omitted from the published report. The press dispatch continues: Clark was asked also to tell how an automobile salesman had been ‘.worked over” (flogged) by the Klan but he refused to testify on that subject, ex plaining that at the time he was coun sel for the Klan, and thus confidential relations had been established, which were ‘.privileged.” In this position he was sustained by the committee. Then Clark told of a conference ht had in 1922 in Houston with Dr. H. W. Evans, imperial Klan wizard and H. C. McCall, a high kleagle. Clark said that Dr. E\ ans was trying, in a mili tant manner, to elect Mayfield to the Senate and used his influence with the Klan in that direction. The conversa tion, he added, led up to certain out rages in the Dallas district, but Dr. Evans said, the Klan had no connection with them'. McCall laughed at him, | said Clark!, and told him to “quit play ing the part of the hypocrite.” Clark added the Klan resorted to two methods to bring into line recal citrant citizens who balked at joining the organization or found fault with it. In some cases ostracism was resort ed, to and in others banishment. When a person was banished ho add ed, that was the end of him as far as his relatives and friends knew as they never could obtain contact with him again. He said the Klan, by mys terious ways had access to telegrams and telephone calls. Asked if letters were also censored, Clark said he “would not go that far.” He explained that the term “worked over,” used by the Klan. meant “flog ging.”1 He heard of one case where a young mulatto had been 1.worked over” for annoying school girls. Discipline or tne people or Texas ne j added was not confined to Negroes. He ! declared no color I’ne was drawn by 1 the Klan. but to bt a member was to train with the Klan, to patronize the Klan doctor and to buy from the Klan groceryman. Then he told how the Negroes had been kept away from the primaries by parades organized by the Klan. You cannot confine evil or vicious practices for any given length of time to any one race or color. It is against the fundamental law. Hooded faces are emblems of cowardice. To permit such organizations to exist in a free country will eventually bring about the country’s own destruction and no citizen’s life will be secure. Th>e villian and the assassin will find refuge among the good men of the republic and shielded in their wrong doing by this hooded concealment the odium for their crimes will rest upon all. 1 Let the Ku Klux Klan function as any other organization functions. Let it abandon the concealed features and the gruesome costumes and it can con! tinue to exist legitimately in this American republic. The day is not far distant when colored men will take the cue and form organizations of a simi lar kind and character and commit crimes under tbe disguise, which will astound civilization. When this time comes, the white people, who defend the organization will see their mistake and join with others in reforming this gigantic organization. -v i; i r Dr. Kelly Miller explains the aims and purposes of the Negro Sanhedrin with tbe ability and skill of a master. It was not organized) to supercede, sup plant or to destroy any existing organi zation but to cooperate wfth , advise and accomplish its mission without friction or ill-will towards any of them. When its critics are ready to show and prove that it has failed to live up to the standards outlined by its spokesman, then its days of useful ness are ended and it will find a rest ing place in oblivion.
