J&icluuul r SUMMARIZES THE WORLD'S WEEK Wenara Ntwaper Fiery Cross Haunts Justice PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT suf--I fered what was probably the most embarrassing period of his entire political career as the whole country stormed over the publishment of what was claimed as documentary proof that Hugo L. Black, recently appointed a justice of the Supreme court, was and is a member of the Ku Klux Klan. The series of articles, copyrighted by the North American Newspaper alliance and printed in the newspapers which subscribe to its service, included reproduction of Black's resignation from the hooded brotherhood, allegedly turned in to the made organization in 1925 but neverKlans-men known to the public or to the in general. It also contained reproduction of the minutes of a Klan meeting in the following year at which Black was said to have become a life member and' was given a gold "passport," one of the highest honors conferred by the order. Implications of the revelations, if they are true, are manifold. President Roosevelt asserted that he had no knowledge that Black was a member of the Klan when the appointment was made. .He refused to comment further until Black returned from Europe, where he was vacationing. Black, hounded for a statement by the press, went into seclusion in London and refused to confirm or deny the accusations. Opposition to the administration lost no time in making political capital of the situation. Senators who had been marked for political extinction because they had dared' to oppose the administration on the plan to add six new justices to' the highest tribunal found it the" finest kind of defense ammunition. They pointed out that the President, in his opportunity to appoint one new Justice of the liberal character he desired, had appointed a man who, if it were true he belonged to the Klan, was incapable of administering impartial justice to Catholics, Jews and negroes. Other senators declared they never would have voted for his confirmation had they known he was a Klansman. It was admitted that since Black had already taken his oath of office there might be no means of correcting the appointment other than by influencing him to resign. This the President might do, it was believed, if Black did not deny the charges upon his return to the United States. . Showdown on 'Sub' Piracy Britain and France massing the greatest destroyer fleet ever operated in the Mediterranean sea, to police it and neutral safeguard shipping from attacks by pirate submarines, as a result of the agreement signed by nine Great powers at Nyon, near Geneva. The powers signatory to the pact also included Greece, Jugoslavia, Turkey, Ruin a n i a, Bulgaria, Egypt and Russia. Italy and Germany had refused to attend the conference when Russia publicly accused Italy of operating the "pirate submarines which sank two Russian ships, and threatened reprisals if Italy did not pay indem- nity. The principal provisions of the agreement, which Germany and Italy were invited to join, were: 1. Mediterranean shipping will be restricted to the regular ship lanes, which will be patrolled by French and British warships, in both the eastern and western stretches. If Italy agreed, she was to be allowed to patrol the Tyrrhenian sea 2. Patrolling navies will attack and attempt to destroy any submarine which attacks merchant ships other than Spanish, without first giving passengers and crew opportunity to leave in lifeboats, as outlined in the 1936 London naval treaty. 3. Signatories expressly declare that they do not concede belligerent rights to either party in Spain. 4. Patrol ships arriving on the scene of an attack too late to prevent it will be authorized to attack any submarine in the vicinity, provided they are satisfied it is foe guilty one. 5. These measures will be executed by the British and French fleets anywhere in foe Mediterranean with foe exception of the Adriatic. Eastern powers will protect neutral shipping in their territorial waters. 6. Signatories agree not to let any of their own submarines put to sea in the Mediterranean unless accompanied by a surface vessel, except in certain exercise zones. 7. Signatories will not permit foreign submarines in their waters unless in urgent distress or on foe surface and accompanied. It was plain that delegates knew that explosions might occur in half s dozen European capitals if their Household Question r PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, anxious over conditions in Europe and foe Far East, cut his vacation short and returned to Washington to discuss developments with his cabinet. After discussing the situation with Norman H. Davis, his European e, ambassador-at-largand Bernard M. Baruch, and getting reports from the State department, he was said to he convinced that there was a real possibility of implication of foe United States in a foreign war. Baruch called Europe a tinder box, ready to explode at any time. In an address before an outdoor meeting of Dutchess county (N.
