Letter To Editor
October 25, 1941
Mr. Belmont Dennis, Editor
The Covington News
Covington, Georgia
Dear Mr. Dennis:
You will receive the following
expression of opinion, I am sure,
in the spirit in which it is in
tended:
Your editorial, whitewashing
the Governor in the matter of his
recent usurpation of dictatorial
power over the University System,
and your attempt thereby to pass
the buck on to the accrediting in
stitutions was a tremendous sur
prise to me. The confident ease
with which you lightly cleared the
Governor impressed me just about
as some of Fibber McGehee’s jokes
impress Molly: “It ain’t funny,
McGehee!” That the Governor’s
action in ruthlessly purging and
“forcing” the Board of Regents
of the University is no light mat
ter but rather a tragedy of the
first order, is the considered opin
ion of every thinking person I had
; talked with in this section,
j I believe your batting average
j for Governor Talmadge on every
issue of importance so far has
been an imposing 100 per cent. Of
course it is your privilege to keep
the record unbroken if you so de
sire. I, too, have appreciated and
supported many of the things
Governor Talmadge has done and
advocated. But I do not feel that
political loyalty or personal
friendship obligates any person
to defend the governor or any
other official or leader when he
has erred as grievously as had
Governor Talmadge in this con
nection.
That your whole effort in this
editorial was to defend the Gov
ernor rather than democratic ed
ucation in Georgia comes clear
when in your reference,’ ... by
I an y group professors because
the Governor has discharged one
of their breed,” you calmly admit
the Governor’s usurpation. The
fact that you have so unquestion
ably (if unconsciously) accepted
the doctrine that the Governor is
the dictator of the State and its
institutions (even in this instance)
ought to help you see how far you
have followed the Governor in
deserting democratic principles.
The Governor IS NOT NOW, and
as long as democracy lasts CAN
NEVER BE, the arbitrary and ab
solute ruler of Georgia and Geor
gia’s educational institutions. Gov
ernor Talmadge DOES NOT have
the authority TO DISCHARGE A
PROFESSOR from the University.
The fact (as you admit) that he
has done it, indicated that he has
high-handedly usurped authority
his office does not give him. In
THAT lie the real danger and
damage of the University.
If the professorships and posi
tions of leadership in our educa
tional institutions are to become
permanently what the Governor
has now made them, namely, po
litical gravy to be squabbled over
and dished out by the politi
cal “ins” and “outs” (you men
tioned), then let us for our chil
dren’s sake thank God that there
is such an organization as the
Southern Association of Colleges
and Universities (in which, by the
way, our splendid University with
perfect freedom has voluntarily *
accepted and maintained member
ship) which will remain true to
its fine standards and stand up
for the sacred values of youth's 1
developing life when they are I
threatened as they are at present
by political intrigue.
Respectfully submitted,
Athol D. Cloud.
FOOD WRITES PEACE
When the nations sit down at the
peace table, a great big stockpile
of American food, all ready to cook
and eat, will greatly reinforce the
American views on what arrange
ments are needed to. make a just
and lasting peace, says Secretary
of Agriculture Wickard. “I have
said many times, and I now re
peat, food will win the war and
write the peace. But remember,
we need reserves of food in or
der to exert the maximum influ
ence at the peace conference ta
ble. By reaching the 1942 pro
duction goals, which include a
start on these stockpiles, Ameri
can farm families will help to
write the history of the future.”
Medical officers in the U. S.
Navy conduct daily inspections of
the ship’s galleys where the food
is prepared.
