So seid 2. 5, Feagins in the Public Pulse cclums of the Sreensborw Daily News, September 17, 1956. My point is simply this: Let our Chember of Commerce, Fiedmont Associated Industries, and civic leaders generally, pruse an? realice whet is going on. They should know how many of then arc, with their money, supporting people whose adopted rules of conduct are atsclutely opposed te the beliefs of their benefrctors, ‘ke should thon sec that our fair city ects back — of a real commmity college, whether or not connected with a church. If we decide to help a church college becom more of 2 commmity affair, let's mke it a denominstion thet more nearly fills the needs and aspirations of our people, Net one that, by long tradition and modem “conviction, fevors integration an? mongreliztion of our races, ahd not one thet also opposes the internci and external defense of our nation by refusal to serve in our armed forces in wartime. They “conscientiously object" to risking their lives for freedom, and teach others to do the same. They are willing for us to fight and die to scve “uaker necks, These people alse meke it 2 point to bring te our commmity every year mumbers of speakers spreadinz Socialist, Communist, and other un-umerican ané subversive doctrines. And then ask these of us devoted to free economy to support them with exsh, And Tet's not contribute our money or send our children te school to any cenominitior or college oppesed to the Loyalty Gath or the Gath of SMegiance te our country, or thot serves as a training groun? for leaders of the American Friends Service Camittee, . Why should we bid on the repe te hang ourselves or cooperate in our own destruction, __ either from the inside or the outside as the Conmmists keep telling us we would do? Herbert hoover in = recent speech on subversive movements undermining fmerica, seid "The jmricon way of life has proved to be pretty tough. It necds to be tougher now". His advice certeinly applics to us here and now. Should we keep our eyes shut and our pocketbooks open? Wht is this canmunity going to de about it? Shall we remain soft, or have the courcge to be tough enough te meet the situation?
