PANAMA. Aug- 18. (). The sudden departure of the I'nited States cruiser Rochester, flagship of the special service squadron, with Rear Admiral John H. Dayton on board, ia said here to be the result of a reported uprising In Santo Domingo.

W). No word of an uprising in Santo Domingo or of casualties among American marines there has been received by the American government.

Marine corps headquarters also sent an inquiry to Santo Domingo.

Officers on duty at the headquarters were inclined to believe that had there been an uprising ot the serious character reported, word of tt would have been sent promptly to Washington and would have reached here before the Rochester, could have been notified at Panama.

SOUTH JERSEYITES VISIT GOV SILZER McFadden Protest on Sunshine Program Is Answered By President and Klan. The protest of William J. McFadden.

Newark lawyer, over the Ku Klux Klan advertisements in the pro-the Sunshine society benefit at the Monterey hotel here recently, is followed by a statement from Mrs. Wallace G. Hooper of Belmar. coast president, that the advertisements were accepted as others were and without thought of arousing antagonism. She states, however, that no advertisements calculated to cause trouble hereafter will be accepted.

Mr. McFadden's letter has also drawn a spirited reply from the K. K. K. in which his charges of lawlessness and bigotry are warmly denied and stating that the advertisements were solicited and were given solely for the benefit of the blind children.

The assertion is made that it there has been bigotry shown it Is upon the part of those who object to the Klan aiding the little ones. Mrs. Hooper said that the K. K. K.

advertisement had been accepted in the same manner as those accepted from merchants and other organizations. The branch of which she is president, she said, had solicited advertisements for the program, with no thought of stirring up any antagonism, either amonjr the members or anions the advertisers. The Klan, she stated further, has nothing whatever to do with the Sunshine society, other than the business transacted in obtaining the advertisement. She stated further that her organization includes members of all faiths and that objection to taking the K. K.

K. advertisement had been noted only from representatives of one of these. She believes that the matter was reported to Mrs. Cynthia Westover Alden, president-general of tho International Sunshine society, for since then she has been laotined that no advertisements are to be accepted hereafter that may stir up any antagonism between different groups. The Klan statement follows: Statement by K.

K. K. KDITOR PRESS The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan wish to advise the public thru your paper that the advertisements placed by this organization in the Sunshine society's souvenir progrumvere solicited by the Sunshine society, and that this organization has been personally thanked for the advertisements by presmem oi me Si brnch ot the Sunshine society. rne concert was given tor me oen- efit ot blind children and the Knights of, the Ku Klux Klan arc ever ready to assist those In need, they responded to the call. In your story you quote a William .1.

McFadden of Newark as follows: "I am credibly Informed that many business people who advertised in the program and also a number of those who served as patrons and patronesses tor the affair are very incensed. It is hardly necessary, I take it, for me to state that the Ku Klux Klan Is a thing too loathsome to countenance, engendering, as it does, the spirit of bigotry, race prejudice and lawlessness." We defy Mr. to the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan a lawless organization and claim that the bigotry Is on tho part of those whir in their narrowness would object to tho blind childrert receiving the benefit from the Klan advertisements. 1 We expect that the Monmouth coast branch of the Sunshine society will in fairness notify the public thru your paper as to the truth of the above statements regarding our advertisements.

Caldwell Tells Hetrick. Elimination of dead fish on coast beaches by the enacting of legislation compelling fishermen to bury unmarketable fish on shore Is suggested by Dr. Clarence A. Birdsall, M. of Caldwell, in a letter to Mayor C.

E. F. Hetrick. Mayor Hetrick in his reply says he will present the proposition i to the joint meeting of the leaguue of municipalities and the anti-pollution league at their meeting here next Thursday. Dr.

Birdsall, a summer resident here, ascribed much of the inconvenience occasioned on the beaches by summer resorters In the matter of beach litter and water pollution to dead fish and the magot fly. Much of the responsibility for the fish, he asserts, can be laid to pound fishermen who discard offal so close to shore that a day's drift brings it in. His letter follows: "Mayor C. E. F.

Hetrick, "Dear Mayor, "As I have been a summer visitor to the shore resorts practically all my life, may I add my kick to the anti-pollution meeting sched-uln Aug. 23? It appears to me that life would be a whole lot sweeter for the bather, surf-caster and for all who walk the sands if there were fewer biting flics on the beach. There is no doubt in my mind that the bite of these flies is more painful than that of the famous New Jersey mosquito. "From a necessarily hasty examination of some of the numerous magot-laden fish lying on the sands several days, 1 have come to the conclusion that the magots fattening on the fish are the immediate precursors in the life-cycle ot the flies above mentioned. Possibly my biology is Inaccurate, but I doubt it.

"Would it not be a two fold blessing if the fish were forced to find some other place to spend their days? Is it not a fact that the pound-fisherman Is the immediate cause of so many dead sea-robin, mar.haden and fish-entrails dotting the beahes. Would it bo asking to much ot them to dump such offal back into the ocean at the outer end of their nets at their next trip out, or bury it. deep, on the beach during the summer months at least? "And, if be not asking too much, would it not be a good plan for the (Continued On Page Two) BO! HIT BY CAR OF ATA WAN, Aug. 18.
