Washington, Oct. 14.?William
Joseph Simmons, imperial wizard of
the Ku Klux Klan, was prevented by
illness today from appearing "before
a house committee for examination
by members as to (activities of the or- *
der. ,
The imperial wizard collapsed
yesterday at the close of a five hours'
statement and later was placed in
charge of a physician, who ordered '
him to stay in bed.
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. I
Woodlands on farms comprise more '
than one-half of all the forested lands.;
in the United States.
