NO. 740 CHATHAM ROAD WINSTON SALEM* N. C. The Reco. Gets Results _ 999-3118 DUNN. N. C. TUESDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 5, 1965 FIVE CENTS PEB COPE Every Man Killed Or Wounded Commies Wipe Out U S. Squad AN EDITORIAL Dr. Frank Graham And The Communist Speaker Ban With wars, threats of wars and other world ten sions, it would appear that Dr. Frank Graham and every other United States employee at the United Nations would have more important things to do than spending time running back and forth to North Caro lina to make speeches against the Communist Speaker Ban Law. Considering the fact that Communists are kill ing American troops in Viet Nam, it seems very inap propriate, to say the least, for Dr. Graham to devote his energy and the taxpayers* time and money try ing to convince North Carolina legislators that Com munists have the right to speak on our campuses. It is the duty of every American, especially those feeding at the public through, to do all they can to help fight the Communists, not to help coddle them. At the ultra, ultra plush headquarters of the United Nations, where the carpets are as thick as the prime steaks in its swank dining rooms, Dr. Graham is afforded every comfort, convenience, nicety and lux ury that the taxpayer's money can buy. In the plush and ornate bars of the UN, the finest champagnes, vodkas, wines and liquers from the world's great distilleries are on tap for the mere ask ing. The cuisine of the many dining rooms at UN head quarters is said to be the finest in the-world, always a banquet fit for a king. And just a taxi hop away from UN headquarters lies at disposal of Dr. Graham, the fjne museums and libraries some of the world's greatajst ■ art aim cultural centers, all the glitter and glamour of Broad way, Times Square, the world's beautiful dancing dolls - you name it, almost anything his heart could desire. And a pocketfull of the taxpayers' money to pur chase it with. . i m. While Dr. Graham emoys-- sum* luxury, our battle-scarred GIs wade through the mud and marshes of the Viet Nam jungles, forced to exist on tasteless Army combat rations when they can find a minute to eat at aH Many of them are footsore, weary, wounded and bleeding. They thank the Good Lord for every day they manage to survive without getting their eyes gouged out. their innards ripped out at the point of bayonet or their heads shot off by some savage Communist Guerilla. ■ , . „ . And yet Dr. Graham ha <5 the unmitigated gall to climb into a taxi or a United Nations limousine, head for luxury airplane or train accommodations to return to North Carolina and tell the oeoole we ought not to ban Communists, that we ought to roll out the red carnet for their too propaganda spokesmen, honor them and be nice to them so we can learn thedr views. Why, he savs, it's absolutly necsesary to acade. mic freedom to welcome the Commies to Our campuses. In fact, he adds, if wc dori*t do it then the sreat Southern Association of Colleges and Schools might even take awav our accreditation. „ Call it anything you like, but the United States Is at war with the Communists. In a war. vou don't compromise with the enemy. You shoot to kill, vou fieht to win And you die If necessary to do it. Thousands already haVe. Meanwhile, the people back home aren't expect ed to use tax money to plav footsie with the Commun ists politicians behind the enemy guns that kill our Slice It any way you like, that's what it means.
