Young Poet Draws
Storm Of Protest
From S. C. House
COLUMBIA, 8. C.. April 22.-0P)
—A college boy’s attempt at depict
ing the seamy side of life in a cot
ton mill village stirred up a storm
of protest Wednesday in the South
Carolina house which promptly
adopted a resolution directing a
psychiartrisfa examination of the
young author.
Published In the Wofford College
Journal, the literary effort In free
verse in an imitation of Carl Sand
berg’s style referred to ignorant,
diseased and dirty mill hands misled
at their meetings by "mealy-mouth
ed hypocrites” and told a mill work
er:
“You died on your 18th birthday
when you went to work in a cotton
mill.”
It was written by Peter Moody, a
sophomore at Wofford from Coolee
mee, N. C., a textile center, and a
one-time "mill hand” himself.
Rep. Ponder, of Spartanburg,
where Wofford is located, read it to
the house and introduced a resolu
tion requesting Dr. C. Fred Wil
liams, superintendent of the state
hospital, tt> send a psychiatrist to
examine the writer. It was adopted
without a record vote.
Appraised of the house’s action,
Dr. H. N. Snyder, president of Wof
I ford, disclosed that he and Moody
had previously written apologetic
letters to the Spartanburg Central
Labor union.
Dr. Snyder said he was "very
much grieved” that it had been
published, but that Moody was a
."fine young man” who had meant
jno slur upon any class of workers.
Moody said his effort much to
his regret had been misinterpreted
and “the literary side forgotten.'
He added that he knew mill em
ployes as a class were "hard work
ing and intelligent.”

jects.
