Preacher Declares
STAMFORD. June 23.—
Ths Ku‘ Klux Klan and similar
prejudiced organizations were se‘-
verely scored by Rev. Gerald A.
Cunningham. rector of'tho St. John’s-
Eplscopal Church, at the Masonic
services held there yesterday after-
noon. In the course of his address
Mr. Cunningham spoke of “pre-
judiced organizations which are a
menace to the peace and prosperity
of our qountry." While he did ,riot
directly'mention the Klan, it was
easily understood that be aimed 1118
attack directly at that organization.
"One of the greatest menace; to
our country." he said. "are organizm
tions founded on racial and religious
prejudices. A man is by birth a
member of some racial or deligious
group. It takes great courage for
men of those groups to stand out
against the mob prejudice which
those menacing organizations hold."
At the start of his talk Mr. Cun-
ningham reviewed briefly the early
history of Masonry. He said that
the organization was the outgrowth
of a similar organization founded
in mediaeval times among the trade
groups. These organizations found-
ed the principles of democracy. They
were ofttimes oppressed by the
Feudal barons but in the end they
and Democracy conquered.
Some Obstacles.
f'The prejudiced organizations of
today present the same obstacles to
the growth of Democracy as the
Feudal barons of old did." said Mr.
Cunningham.
There are two other menace: to
the welfare of our nation. he related.
They are our selfish international
outlook and the utter indifference to
general lawbreaklng in reference to
the Eighteenth Amendment. In
speaking of the latter he said that
it mattered not whether a pol-son
was "wet" or “dry." the fact remains
that the Eighteenth Anwndment la
a. law onvthe statute books ’and tho
disrespect for that. law loads to the
disrespect for others.
"Masonry." he said." is founded
on faith and despite many disasters
that may confront it faith will be
rewarded." As'an (‘xamplc he point.-
ed out the life of Jesus Christ.
"All of our projudicr's. With those
of others must be s:i(‘rlilt‘."tl for the
good of others." he soul in closing.
"In the dedication of our spiritual
temple we must preach toleranCe
and broader brothvrlincss in the
name of our great society wherever
we may go and in that way we will
do much to wipe out the viciousness
of intolerance that menaces our
homes and our country."
Besides a large attendance of the
members of the congl‘t‘zulifln about
300 members of the Masonic blue
lodges. Knights Tcmplnr and East-
ern Star attr-nds‘ri. The members of
Stamford commandcrv Knights

NEW YORK, June 23. — Jack
Zivic. who tackles Pal Moran in a
fifteen round bout at the Queens-
boro Stadium tonight is the
youngest of the -nlock of light-
weight contenders now quarreling
among themselves as to which one
shall get a whack at Benny Leon-

came of ago and has been boxing
professionally only a couple of years.
Before he entered the ranks of the
professionals he held the Olympic
lightweight championship.
Zivic must beat Moran to stay in
the running. Pal is about due for
one of his good lights. The New
Orleans boy proved a disappoint-
ment in his arguments with Johnny
Dundee and Luis Vicentinl. but he
has taken a new grip on himself
and is certain that he will turn back
the ambitious youngster from Pitts-
burgh. ,
Among those who will be pulling

Leach Cross, former lightweight
