Decision in Ku Klux suit held by federal court
Judges Thomnatic and Schounmacher opened hearings on a suit by five Klansmen seeking dissolution of the Pennsylvania Ku Klux Klan branch. They heard arguments on whether the federal court has jurisdiction to dissolve the state organization amid alleged disgraceful practices and murders. Reverend Herbert Shay, a former pastor linked to the Van Street church, testified for the defense as the Klansmen pressed for dissolution and action against leaders. The plaintiff’s counsel, Van Burrickman of Pittsburgh, and the defense by J. Ni Connavehtea of Washington, presented lengthy arguments before Judge Dhiomsygna Sihunnsmaker.
