Announcement of Mr. Simmons' ] illness was made by Chairman Campbell, who stated he had been advised _ that the wizard was too ill to appear. Dr. W. C. Manning, the physician attending Mr. Simmons, reported 1 { that he sufFering from acute bronchitis and general exhaustion. Chairman Campbell adjourned the , hearing after stating that Dr. Man- ' ;ning had informed him Mr. Sim- , mons could not possibly appear earlier than Monday. Should his condi- . tion improve, however, the hearing 1 may be resumed tomorrow. ^ Doubt that a congressional inves-1, tigation of the klan would be order-1 I . ed was expressed. Supporters of the movement to have congress delve into the affairs^ and activities of the fclan will make J . a final effort to prove three charges. j { 1. That the klan used the mails to j defraud. 2. That he klan had committed j overt acts against individuals and \. incited riots. 3. That the klan had knowingly I' evaded .tax payments to the government. Members of Mr. Simmons' party J and persons who had assisted in the [ investigation of the klan, expressed " the belief that the evidence present- ' ed thus far did not contain the foundation for a probe by congress. NotJ. one witness had produced1 conclusive |' evidence of " violation of the law against the klan, they held. Mr. Simmons admitted that his or- ' ganization had not paid income tax. He explained that the $10 paid by each klansan on joining is a donation and is so designated in all the records. When the income tax law'. I was enacted he said he conferred j with the internal revenue collector I in Atlanta and was told his organi- j nation was not siibject to the act.
