Crews Says GagToBe
Repealed, Amended
Chapel Hill?The Speaker Ban
Law will be appealed or amend
ed next year, although It will
be no easy task, a top-rank
ing State Democratic official
predicted here Thursday night.
Democratic Party Chairman
W. Lunsford Crew told a meet
ing of the Chapel HlU-Carrboro
junior Chamber of Commerce,
"I am convinced that in 1965
legislators and educators think -
lng and reasoning together will
amend or repeal this law. .
The Speaker Ban, enacted In
the closing days of last year's
General Assembly, prohibits
known Communists or persons
who have taken the Fifth Amend
ment in loyalty investigations
from speaking on State -sup
ported campuses.
Jir. Crew said, "Repeal of
this law will not be as simple
as some might think. It Is a dif
ficult matter to explain aca
demic freedom and freedom of
the mind to many people
throughout North Carolina. .
The Roanoke Rapids State
Senator, wno prefaced his pre
pared remarks by saying that he
was speaking on his own anil not
In his capacity as State Demo
cratic chieftain, also praised
Town offtcials for their handling
of recent recial demonstra
tions.
Mr. Crew said, "I know those
people who introduced this bill
(the Gag Law) in the General
Assembly; they are men of good
faith and they believe in higher
education, but they and other
members of the General As
sembly were living in a.world
of fear.
"I hasten to say that it is my
firm belief that, if this bill had
been gjven the proper consider
ation with the usual committee
meetings, It would never have
passed the General Assembly. I
was the first member of the
Senate to oppose this bill, and I
must admit I arose with some
reluctance. I realized that the
public in general would feel
that any person who opposed the
bill would be labeled as friendly
to communism. . .1 do not fear
communism nearly so-much as I
fear the ultimate consequences
of tyranny of man's mind, and
shackles that might be placed
upon the voices and minds of
Americans.
. .As long as men are free
to have new ideas, to discuss
these Ideas, to experiment, to
ask questions, to seek answers,
this country will continue to
grow and be In keeping with the
changing times.
"If I were the chancellor or"
president of a college campus,
or If I were a student leader, I
would be most reluctant to in
vite a known Communist to the
?us, but I believe, that our
chancellors and presidents are
far better equipped and exper
ienced in coping with the chang
ing problems of students than
legislators and laymen.
"I am fearful that If we elimi
nate Communists that we might
next eliminate Baptists, Metho
dists , or Canadians, or even
Democrats (if the Republicans
ever get control of the Legisla
ture).
"A University or a state that
does not alio* free thought will
not continue to produce such
men as Dr. Frank Graham, Paul
Green, Fred Koch, Dr. Phillips
Russell, Dr. Horace Williams,
Secretary of Commerce Luther
Hodges, Governor Terry San
ford, Dr. Aycock, and Dr. Fri
day. These men may not always
be popular In their time, but
they will be great men for all
time.
"The law Is not as bad for
what It Is, as for what it may
bring In years to come."
Mr. Crew commended Town
and University officials, stu
dents and faculty members for
the patience and tolerance they
have shown In handling recent
demonstrations In Chapel Hill.
"The solution to the Town's
problems." he said, "will be
found not In the streets, and not
in violation of thelaw, but within
the hearts and minds of men
working together around a con
ference table.
"Many people are confused
because they are still unwilling
to admit that we have a pro1-!em.
I believe that the problems that
plague us today will surely, in
the not too distant future, pass
away. They will only be solved
at the conference tables."
