A Community Loss A series of events took place in Perquimans County, mainly in Hert ford, last week which resulted in a loss of face to the entire community. It is our opinion that only time will evaluate the loss. When the New York Yankee base ball organization ordered ' its farm team, the Norfolk Tars, to break their spring training camp ana remove themselves from the community be cause of1 a number of disagreements that arose after the Tars had come into the community, with an under standing that all arrangements for their stay had been completed, the action caused a disruption of a splen did feeling of cooperation that has been building up throughout the county during the past five to ten years. . We have watched with admiration the interest that has been shown and which, up until a week ago fast Mon day, was being manifested toward the school system of our county. As is always the case, a community grows as interest and work is poured out toward a project in which all of the people weld themselves together for the common good, and in this case the work was being done and the interest manifested in our school system. The entire county was . joining together toward building up the schools, and in turn all phases of -activity were benefitted because of tat -cooperation charge of creating this spring camp. Aside from the,, economic side, it is also our opinion that-the youths of our community could have benefitted i from association with ' the youths (brought here from other . areas throughout the nation. "Society al ways benefits from association with neighbors and friends. As in the case of the local situation during the past two camps the Yankees sent several widely known and excellent baseball players to Hertford to teach their recruits the game as it is piayea in the big leagues. Certainly our youths could have benefitted, at least partial ly, from merely observing the train insr as it was taught by those in charge of spring training here. Freedom Of Thought "The freedom and hope of mankind in this darkening world depend upon the freedom of America," declares Dr. Frank P. Graham, president of the University of North Carolina, who says that 'it is "imperative that our universities be free in America. This is something which many neonle are apt to overlook. It does not mean that every institution of learning will represent the same lead ership or reach the same conclusion. It does not mean, for example, that everybody will agree with the views of Dr. Frank P. Graham. What is important is that educators and citi zens be trained to seek the truth and that no impediment be put in their path. ' There must be intellectual freedom in regard to scholarship, teaching and research and there must also be general recognition of the right of in dividuals to arrive at- conclusions which differ from those held by the majority of the people around them. While we have made a point of avoiding legal censorship in the Unit ed States, it is just as important for people generally to understand the danger of a censorship based upon popular opinion. While the average American, whether educated or ignor ant, is entitled to his or her views, the same right must be accorded others if one expects to enjoy freedom for himself or herself. House. P. S. He phone call. forgot LOOKING AT WASHINGTON . -,' (Continued from Page Three) .. . to make its intention evident in time and that aggressor states, mistaking! our silence, had : precipitated disas trous wars; "Although they have been led to destruction by their mis conception of our strength". declared the President, "we have paid ter rible price for our unpreparedness."

Another objection, of course, is that the big shots on Wall Street would direct the expenditures. The govern build up projects such as has been completed and planned for the local schools.
