The How and Why of Dr.
Fountain’s Dismissal From
Morris Brown College
(Continued from .
Page One)
the fact that he had nn ex¬
perience and only an A. B.
degree from the unaccredited
Morris Brown College. Other
Bishops had put their relatives
in: The custom was well estab¬
lished. But Bishop Wright said
publieially “I will not move
President Fountain. He is the
best Negro college president in
the country, and I will get on
my knees if necessary and beg
him to stay.” Bishop Wright
repeated the same at each
Annua’ Conference in Oporma.

adding, “it is no use to come to
me about anything about Pres-
ident Fountain.” ,
“Bishop Wright did ever--
thing Dr. Fountain asked. He
agreed to raise the budget from
*70,000 to $100,000 for Morrte
Brown College, notwithstand-
ing there had been grumbling
about the $70,000. He stood'bv
President Fountain when he
dismissed the dean of women,
and Professor Thompson of the
Seminary. His reply always
was, "I don’t run the college,
that is Dr. Fountain’s job; see
him.” Bishop Wright did not
even sign the checks. He just
raised money and turned t‘
over to President Fountain. Hi
never ceased to praise thi
Fountains notwithstanding Pres.
Fountain had handled the
affairs of Morris Brown iv
czar-like fashion. (Ask anybod'
"'ho has taught at Morrh
Brown.)
"Bishop Wright did not sus¬
pect anything wrong until the
auditors. L. W. LaFrentz A Co.
of New York, Chicago, Atlanta
etc., reported in August, 194C
one year after Bishop Wright's
arrival that President Foun¬
tain had been taking m.onpv
under the guise of advances of
salary and the amount war
around $13,000. The auditor

Te stated that there was no

Prothro stated that he was R<

Fountain Overdraws Salary
"President Fountain’s sal ar¬
ts $6,5 n 0 per year. He gets hoiU'
-ent free, and about $ 6,000 fe
entertainment and incident-
expenses. He is furnished a coo!
and valet, .telenhone, car. gaso

T n spite of this liberal allow
ance, he drew checks sine/
May, 1048 (that is during Bis
hop Wright's administration
in salary advances and loans
-from 5-24-48 to 5-5-50 amount¬
ing to $17,337.19.”
"Bishop Wright did no’
handle these matters, be’
| turned them over to the Audit¬
ing Committee of the trustee
board, and for many hour
during many days they sough’
explanations from Dr. Fount¬
ain. He acknowledged taking
the money, but gave no satis
factory explanation. While th<
committee was meeting, one o
the presiding elders said tha
Dr. Fountain took his grand¬
daughter’s fees. Dr. Fountain
when confronted, acknowledged
he did.
Forced Check for $5,000
“Just as Morris Brown’s aud¬
itor reported the "advances” of
salary, so the auditor of the
Education Department, Dr. E
A. Adams, secretary, reported
“a loan to Morris Brown Coll¬
ege” of $5,000 in February
1949. It was endorsed "Morri.-
Brown College, W. A. Fountain,
President.” and cashed at the
First National Bank, Atlanta.
Georgia. March 2, 1:749. Dr.
Adams exhibited the check
The audit of Morris Brown’s
books however, do not show
that Morris Brown ever got the
money. In fact, Dr. Fountain
never even mentioned having
received the $5,000, just as he
never mentioned receiving, the
other funds until his defalca¬
tion was discovered February,
1950, it was confessed June.

June, 1948, Bishop Fountain
turned over to Birhop Wright a
for $11,000, saying that
was money not spent for dele-
gate’s expenses. Someone made
a motion to give the money
Morris Brown College to be ap-
plied to the gymnasium. Then: I
Bishop Wright turned over the
check to President W. A. Foun-
tain, in the presence of all the
board, and that is the last
that has been seen or heard of
that check. It was never
turned over to Morris Brown
College or in any way accounted
for.
The $49,000 "Juggle”
"At Commencement in 1549
President Fountain asked that
the conferences get a loan for
Morris Brown to pay defici’
and tide the College over thi
summer. A note was negotiated
the Citizens Trust Co., for
$62,000. In the fall the confer¬
ences paid nearly half of it,
and gave eight blank notes ti
Dr. Fountain to take to the
bank for renewal. Blank note?
were given because Dr Foun¬
tain stated that he did not
not know the exact amount ol
the interest

•ooks did the Bishop or busi-
>ess manager know Dr. Foun-
ain had made and negotia’ed
three notes aggregating $49,000
without the consent of thr
board, and used the annua
unierences to cover up. Hi:
nethod was to get money and
lever report it. This matter
has not yet been fully exploded
Imaging!
"President Fountain had beer
at Morris Brown twenty ypars
and had done good work, sr
everyone thought. and the
Bishop and the board believed
him, and endeavored to be a.
lenient as passible, and to give
him time to pay—from August
1949, until the board meeting
une 7. 1950. Efforts were made
o get his father, Bishop Foun
ain, to come to the aid of hi
•on. When President did not d'
anything, the board did not
iismiss him but gave him ;
leave of absence on his proipis'
to pay the amonut to which h<
confessed. He has not paid al
that money yet.
Publicity!
“Bishop Wright called in th<
local newspaper reporters a nr'
asked tpem not to give public¬
ity to the embezzlement of Dr
’fountain, and the white as wel'
as the colored newspaper men
complied.
How Bad Publicity Started
The leniency of the chairman
of the Morris Brown Board Of
trustees was met with a con¬
spiracy to discredit Bishop
Wright and remove him from
supervision of Georgia by false
propaganda.
Bishops Misled
“At Nashville, Tennessee, Junr
26, 1950, President Fountain
^presented that Bishop Wright ’in-
had him put, out, and was
mrfering with the orderly per¬
formance of his duty. The
bishops believing he was telling
the truth “advised” Bishop
Wright to restore him, and not
"interfere” with him as presi¬
dent.
"Again, in Bishop Fountain's
house, 242 Boulevard, North¬
east, Atlanta, Georgia, on July
5, 1950, a majority of the bish¬
ops were informed that Bishop
Wright was seriously interfer¬
ing with Dr. Fountain, and dis¬
tinguished Atlanta citizens.
Negro and whi'e. were invited
to give testimonies to President
Fountain. They, then advised
Bishop Wright to restore Dr.
Fountain, “with full academic
authority;” but pot to rule the
finances of the College. Bishop
Wrieht urged the board of
trustees of Morris Brown Col-
pore io rpsneet the bi^ops and
restore Dr. Fountain. The trust¬
ees did so. but only after they
had passed a resolution stating
that thev had no confidence in
President Fountain
Propaganda
"Reporters were called to
President Fountain's father's
home, and statements were
given them that Dr. Fountain
ordered returned and Bish-
op Wright was not to interfere
with the President, which was
not true. The bishops never
made such an order, but the
some got wide mibliciiy.
White People Misled
,«t as ,ne oisnops were mis¬
led bv falsehoods, so were white
friends of the Atlanta Negroes,
i-ui example, President Fount¬
ain with others went to the
office of the Atlonta Consti¬
tution ana told Its distinguished
editor falsehood after falsehood.
He did not suspect that he was
being fed falsehoods and be-
•ause of his natural feeling for
justice he wrote an editorial
entitled “We Have Confidence
T n W. A. Fountain. Jr." It was
a great editorial if it had onlv
a foundation in truth. BW the
great editor of the Atlanta
Constitution had been fooled
fust as our dear Bishops were
fooled by falsehoods.
“When Editor McGill, how¬
ever. realized how basely Dr
Fountain had misled him he
was so astounded that he w^ote
’he following letter to President
Fountnin a cop” of whi-h b r
sent to Bishop Wright: (READ

„ Yours sincerely,
Ralph McGill’’
The nrerentment further said
"Dr. Fountain not only drew
manev directly, but also col¬
lected money that he never
turned over to the college; how
much we mav never know.”
It also said these amounts
were received by him but did
not, reach the college treasury :
$1,200 on 5-1-48; $1,973.40 on
3-30-49; $5,0nn on 2-28-49 and
ni60.ro on 12-31-49. a total of
$81188 40.
Under the head of extrava¬
gancies, the statement brought
nut the fact that Dr. Fountain
not only took the college money
he had no right to take, hut, he
most extravagantly spent mon¬
ey that he could draw legiti¬
mately.
Another Interesting item in
the presentment was the "Re-

"6. Money collected from

TOTAL: $19,093.70.”
After verification of the com¬
mittee’s findings it was agreed
at the next, dav’s meeting to
give Dr. Fountain an oppor¬
tunity to repay these repayment shortages,
the terms of the
plan being that he be given to
the end of this fiscal year, June
30. 1950, to pav back the $10.-
674 48. Should he fall, the
will terminate and he will oe
automatically removed from
office, and further, that he be
given six (6) months to pav the
balance amounting at present
to approximately $9,619.30.
failure to do so at that time
will mean he is automatically
removed from office, and that
the office of presidency will
then he declared vacant.
