been disposed to believe that nothing can interfere with its development and that no matter what is done or is not done the demand for real estate for homes for apartments for other things that Long Beach has to sell will continue to increase To test the fallacy of this argument by refusing to do anything to further industrial or commercial interests is a policy that will have little Support from the vast majority of local residents who appreciate the necessity for that form of steady income represented by the weekly pay check Every line of local business and development feels the influence of the payroll Property values respond thereto No legitimate industrial enterprise can be thoughtlessly neglected nor deliberately driven away Without an immediate loss in potential and actual wealth Encourage manufacturing plants to come here and to stay here This can be done specifically by cooperating with individual concerns It can be done generally by developing the harbor and otherwise

Freiburg "A Readee comes to the defense of the much 'bused landlord with the suggestion that rents might be lower and service better if tenants were a little more considerate not to say responsible Ttenants says the correspondent can demand a thirty day- notice to leave but they can vacate at their own pleasure with a trail of broken dishes and other damage It is often the case says "A Reader" who may also be a landlord tat tenant for whom special favors have been shown such as giving shelter to his children is the least responsive to good treatment 'rhis of course should not be The trouble is not ivith tenants as a class however nor with landlords as a group but with individuals The world it is said is made up of all kinds of people and some of them are landlords while others are tenants and a few occupy their own homes a pleasing compromise that should grow in popularity MAY BUILDING OUTLOOK The month of May ambitiously lays the foundation for another million dollar building

word moon epread throughout the country that I Witil tiritittig my Min for a war itgaintit the Ku Klux A week or two after I started teaching the negroes how to handle themselves I happened to ride into Athena "While eroashig the publie square encountered General I fouston When he saw me he rushed up anti said: 'Why Cuptaln what are you doing with those hands of yours? I hear that you have armed them and are giving them drill every evening" "'General Houston" I replied 'When I came into your offiee and showed you the letter front the Ku Klux you told me that you coultitil control the young men and you asked me what I Intended to do about the matter' "My plantation workera are armed and are drilled They are with me every one in my resolve to fight the Ku Klux That is my answer And what is more if I hear of a single crime or depredltion of one person Mimed by the Ku Klux in this territtisy I'll turn my own negroem and KA more Into a eolored army of 1000 armed men and l'il clean the Ku Klux out' "General Houston said: 'Oh inY Ood Captain! You wouldn't do anything like I replied: 'I certainly will If you can't control the young men I surely can control them for you' "From that dary on I never heard again of the Ku Klux Klan planning anything of an offensive nature against me nor ogaimit the phtntation owners in my dietriet while I was there "Some months later a couple of men came along and bought out my intereals I went to lit Louis and went into buidnems there When I had been in business there about three months the son of one of the plantation owners 'who Mel been operating next door to me in Athens Ala came in "'How Is I asked him 'Oh the Ku Klux got him a white after you left' he answered "Then I told him 'When I left I told your father and the other white men that they must never go out without their guns you did he answered 'but they got lax after you went away and soon the Ku Klux raided the distriet' When I took the measurem that I did to fight the Ku Klux Klan I simply prepared to fight fire with fire and in so doing prevented the start Of any trouble" Captain Hall will be eighty-eight years old June 3 lie in One of the pioneers of Long 'leach and one of the notable surviving men of the Civil War

today in detailing his experiences with the Ku Klux "as I had followed the growth of the Klan with conaiderable interest from its ineeptipit in one of the southern countiem Tennessee up to the very day that the letter was delivered to me 'I was paying the government's revenue collector for the shipment I was making when a stball boy probably about twelve year old came up to me and gave me the letter I thought nothing of it at the time and Co did not open it for half an hour or more When I started to unneal the letter I noticed for the first time the address on it "It was: "ro Cap Win hell Damned Yankee' "Opening the enevlope I read: 'If you value your life you will get out of thin community at once' Down in the loft hand corner of the letter was the skull and crone-bones and the words 'Ku Klux Klan' "In addition to being the revenue! collector the man with whom I was talking was mayor of Athens He asked me when I had shown the warning to him to go to see Gen-1 eral Houston a few steps away knew the general's attitude towards' Northerners and said that it would be useless He insisted however and I finally went with him' When General Houston had read the letter he eat bark in his chair and placing his fingertips together asked me 'Well Captain what are you going to do about "You hove read that letter you band it back and I'll show you what I'll do" I told him "I Went to my plantation at oncel and told my overseer to call all of the colored workere together The 200 odd plantation hands assembled In front of my house on the elanle-! tion and each began to question the
