Reports that Imperial Wizard Hiram Evans of the Ku Klux Klan is personally directing that organization’s fight against adoption of the World Court protocol by the Senate were in circulation here today.
One of the rumors was that the Klan chief had taken the matter up with a member of the Administrative group, Senator Richard P. Ernst of Kentucky, a supporter of the Court.
Many letters and petitions sent out by the Klan in opposition to the World Court have been received by Senators in the past few days.
