pointment of Dr. M. Wil
son Nesbitt of Durham as
director of Rural Church
Affairs and secretary of the
Rural Church Committee of
The Duke Endowment is
announced by Thomas L.
Perkins, chairman of the
trustees of the endowment.
The addition of Dr. Nes

lina and their bishops into

program, Perkins said. Dr.
Nesbitt will represent the

Rural Church, and with
other agencies concerned

Durham office of The Duke
Endowment.
For the last 10 years Dr.
Nesbitt has been associate
professor of the work of
the rural church at the

North Carolina are one of
the four major beneficiaries

operation and maintenance
of such churches, and to
help in the support of
Methodist ministers retired
from one of the conferences
who died while serving one
of them.
Dean R. E. Cushman of
the Divinity School ex
pressed regret at Dr. Nes
bitt’s separation from im
mediate relationship with
the faculty and adminlstra.

tecognizes the larger con
tribution which his experi
ence and understanding
will be able to bring to the
plans of the rural church
program of the endowment.

LETTER TO
THE EDITOR
Dear Editor:
Character assassination by
inference was attempted
upon three members of the
Edenton - Chowan school
board at the last meeting
of said board by one of its
own members. That mem
ber has had a long stand
ing reputation for being
outspoken and vociferous,
first on one side of an issue
and then the other. And
because he raised false
hopes among the die-hards,
he knows that he will al
ways be quoted in The
Chowan Herald.
It is one thing to be
lieve in something. It is
quite another to advocate
the violation of one’s oath
of office in order to satisfy
one’s prejudices or gain
popularity or further one’s
own business interests.
Regardless of how we
feel about it personally, the
law says that segregation
is illegal. It also says that
dual school systems must
be eliminated by 1969-70.
We have been given a one
year extension due tp our
projected building program.
Also the Supreme Court
has recently ruled that
“Freedom of Choice is not
im end in itself. If it
fails to undo segregation,
other means must be used
to achieve this end.”
Certainly, all of the
srhool board members
have a copy of this ruling.
If the editor does not have
a copy, I will be glad to
fee that he gets one.
As for ESEA funds, I am
sure that everyone is
aware that whether we ac
co p t or reject federal
money, we are still re- 1
sponsible for upholding the
law. It should be equally
as obvious to any respon
sible newspaper reporter
that nny student who is
entitled to professional
treatment paid for by
ESEA funds has a choice
of practitioners. Parents of
such children must sign a
statement indicating their
choice of professional
services. These forms are
a matter of record for any
one to see.
Also please be informed
that dur ; fees -for ESEA
students are an average of
$lO to sl2 less than for our
regular patients.
Please, let us all get to
gether and work toward
that all-important goal of
providing the very best
educational opportunities
for all the students of Cho
wan County.
DR. A. F. DOWNUM, SR.,
Board Member.
