“I‘heArab.” ’ " ‘
The love of a Shlek’e son for the
daughter of an American mission-
ary; the attempted massacre of
Christians by the governor of the
Turkish province and the rescue of
the Christians by the Arab’e own
warriors are some of the action
channels of the new Rex Ingram
fiasx‘imolms :
- me AaAe- "
special “The Arab" which begins a
three days' run at the Regent today.
The picture is easily the most excit-
ing that has been screened in Nor-
;walk in months. Ramon Navarro
and Alice Terry are the principals
The casting of 'these stars is a. suffi-
cient guarantee of the high quality
of the attraction. Rex Ingram is
too well known as a. producer to
need any prolonged introduction.
"The Four Horsemen" was a. sample
of his work and he has not been sat-
isfied to live on the fame gained by
that release. “The Arab" is faith-
fully adapted from Edgar Selwyn's
successful play and it will please all
Regent patrons.

PALACE.
“'llllam Forum.
A Paramount picture brimful of
thrills and crammed with action that
includes one of the mightiest cli-
maxes on the screen. \Villiam Far-
iiun- starring. is the Wallace Worsley
Paramount production. "The Man
\Vlio Fights Alone." showing for the
last time today at the Palace thea~
tre.
F‘arnums characterization of the
capable forceful engineer whose un-
lwarranted jealousy and suspicion of
his best friend all but leads to his
destruction is nothing short of the
work of a genius. He proves that
as a dramatic actor of emotional
pails he is in a class by himself.
”The Man \Vho Fights Alon x". is
based upon an adaptation by Jack
Cunningham from an'unusual story
_by \Villiam Blacke and James Shel—
leyllamilton called "The Miracle of
Hate."
The flawless acting of». Lois Wil-
son and Edward Horton, featured in
the excellent supporting cast goes a
long way towards making this pic‘
turc one of the great Farnum pro-
ductions to date.
RIAUI‘O.
"In Hollywood."
Our old friends Potash and Perl-
mutter have abandoned the cloak
and suit industry for motion pictures.
Samuel Goldwyn has taken Mon-
tague Glass's famous characters to
Hollywood and shows their adven-
tures as they embark upon a career
of movie magrlates. Andlwliat ad-
ventures they are! You will find
more laughs in their doings and
saying “In Hollywood," now playing
at the Rialto theatre than you've
haul in any dozen pictures this year.
Abe arid Mawrus will show you how
to pick the varnpiest vampire and
how to teach handsome movie heroes
to make love.
It's the comedy picture of
year.

Above is one of the official seals
used by King Kleagle Luttcrman in
cOrrespondence with Klan officers.
in correspondence with ordinary
Klansmen he often uses a seal hear-
ing only his code title—G-l. Both
of these. and other seals in the
"State Office" are so closely guarded
that they are equipped with special
locks to prevent the making of im-
pressions without permission.
(Continued from Page One.)
with the law-abiding citizens,
are, thousands of men and worn-
en, _who still claim citizenship
aid the protection of Connecti-
cut laws, but who have volun-
tarily pledged allegiance to an-
other and far difierent form of
govet‘hment; who have sworn in-
stant and unquestioning obedi-
ence to leaders whose'very names
they do not know and whose
fgces they have never seen; and
whose actions in many instances
have already shown that With
them, this secret and unholy al-
legiance comes before their f1dc-
lity to the laws of the State un-
der which they live.
Membership lists of the order. in-
volving men and women in practi~
cally every town and city in the
state. are in the possession of THE
state, are known. They are official
lists. authentic in every particular.
The names of the leaders of the
Klan. the men and women who
wield. in many cases, greater power
and influence in the community than
its duly elected public officials. will
be revealed in this series of articles
together with information concern-
ing the character and personality of
each.
‘In the purview of the Klan organ~
ization. the State of Connecticut does
not exist. The territory comprised
within its boundaries, together with
that of Rhode Island. has become a
“realm" of the “Invisible Empire."
The capital of this “realm" is located
in the pretty little town of Darien.
and the seat of government is a.
rambling while frame house on the
Boston Post Road.
Here resides the "King Kleagle.‘
and certainly no King in any civil-
izcd laud exacts. or receives. more
thoroughgoing submission from his
subjects. Like other Kings; the chief
preoccupation of the “King Klesgic"
is the extension of his dominions. It
is. however. more directly profitable
than similar campaigns undertaken
by other monarchs have been.
Washington Superstars Atlanta.
Each new Klansman, as is well
known. pays $10 into the treasury
of the “invisible Empire" as the
price of his "naturalization". Re-
ceipt: at the “royal residence" in
Darien have averaged as high as
8250 a. day when business was good.
The receipts from these "Kiosk-
tokens" are promptly deposited in
the Home Bank and Trust Company
of Darien. whence remittances are
forwarded to the Klan headquarters
in W'ashlngto‘n‘. The hoadkuarters in
the national capital. incidentally.
have largely superseded the former
offices in Atlanta.
And it is believed that a goodly
portion of...the receipts, however.
sticks to the finger: of the "King
Kleaglef’. enabling him to maintain
his “royal" state and to support his
automobile and other luxuries at the
expense of the faithful.
Just how much of the elaborate
hocus-pocue of the Klan organization
is the usual mystiflcatlon of the ty-
pical secret society. and how much
is inspired by more sinister purposes,
it is impossible to say. .
It i: at least curious. however. to
note that not only i: he name of
the King Kleagle unkn wn to most
of his followers. to say nothing of
the names of the higher officials. but
even his title is ranked 'in all cor-
respondence with his subordinates.
He is merely "G-y." and as 0-1 he
issue: order: for parade: or loeal
“Klonklaves”. "naturalization" cere-
monies and the like.
"6-1" is extremely proud of his
position and of the promptness with
which his commands are obeyed. He
claim: to be able to start mobilisa-
tion of any or-all his force- at half
an hour's notice! he himself take:
no longer time. to obey the frequent
summons to Washington or to At-
lanta.
. New Members.
Practically all of the clerical work
in “G- 1':" office has to do with the
unending campaign‘for new mom-
bers—and the accompanying new
:10 bills. As fast as a new Klaus-
is impressed upon him that duty re-
quires him to submit the names and
addresses of prospective members, as
often and in- a: large numbers a:
possible. At each indoor meeting or
Klonklave, and. at every open-air
demonstration. the chief topic of
discussion‘l: that of way: and means

parallels the men's organization-e
and wives hold corresponding pool-i
tions. Mrs. "6-1" for instance. with
the title of Major Kleagle. is head
of the entire women's organization
of her husband's "‘realm." This
parallel exists among many subord-
. inate officials whose wives are active
in the women‘s branch.
strations of Klan methods was af-
forded in the preparation and or-
ganisation of the huge open-air
"naturilizatlon" ceremony held in
Stamford on September 13th. At
this demonstration some 8.000
Klansmen paraded in full regalia.
An invitation was sent to the
Kleagle of the adjoining “realm" of
New York. to attend, but this was
declined.
“6-1" We: Busy.
"6-1." for sometime before the
ceremony. was busy with plans for
warding off ahy interference. I-le
boasts frequently to his associates
and subordinates that among the
Klansmen present would be Federal
Secret Service men. who would use
their authority derived from the
Government to protect their superi-
or: in the Klan. As it turned out.
these men. if they actually existed.
had no need to reveal themselves.
To insure the preservation of
secrecy and the prOmpt and strict
obedience of all Klansmen. the In-
visible Empire is conducted on a
military basis as rigid as any his-
tory has known. In the ranks no
Klansman knows the membership
of the order in districts other than
his own. and knows next to nothing
of the actual working: of the Order.
The documents of value. the
Kloran. the handbook of the Klan:
the oaths. the membership lists. the
correspondence. never reach the in-
dividual Klansmsn save by word of
mouth. and then only when the oc-
casion demands it. These remain in
the keeping of the few high officials
who have use for them. Even the
orders which are received and um
questionably obeyed are of unknown
origin as far as a. Klansman is con-
cerned, having been formulated in
the alcove of some Imperial officer
and transmitted through I. succee-
slon of officials of lessening import-
ance to the rank and tile.
The over-use of the letter "K" by
the Klan has been a matter of spec-
ulaflon thioughout the entire coun-
try. As far as is known it is a
meaningless custom ,oave insofar as
its use is gained from the initials of
the ordcr's name and it: 'sérvice'as
a way to write certain words in an
original manner. It: recurrence in
Klan documents and rituals-l: pro-
nouncedf’but in the case of certain
words it is dropped. For instanco.‘
through the entire ritual the word.
"Clanish" appears with a "C." while
other words, with far less excuse.
are spelled with "K."
