(Continued from Page 5)
At Hereford sale at Green
wood recently I was talking
with Will Henderson, one of
the chiefs of that select group
of pioneers. Will has fed out
a car or more of cattle every
year but one of the 42 that he
has been farming.
He came to cattle naturally.
He studied about them when
we were at Clemson, and his
farm was in the natural grass
belt of the state. The fine pas
ture he has is known to be
over 100 years old, and it gets
better by the year, under his
skilled management. His win
ter grazing got ahead of his
herd of beef cattle, and he is
cutting hay there and plans to
harvest seed from part of it.
So, in the present awaken
ing to cattle in South Carolina,
we do not feel that we are
trying out a new and uncertain
thing. The thing is well sea
soned by the long years of ex
perience by folks like Will.
And Greenwood county is
greatly extending this thing to
both beef cattle and dairying.
County Agent Garvin and Bob
Craig, the SCS man, had
Greenwood county literally
plastered with demonstrations
of fine winter grazing the past
season. Not just little trial
patches of it, but Whole big
fields that nurtured sleek cat
tle clear through.
I was inspired by Dr. Dan
iels beautiful interpretation of
some of Shakespeare’s match
less writing when I was at
Clemson. So I decided to
write an ode for Joe Hunter
who was editor of the college
magazine. The Chronicle.
On a moonlight night I gaz
ed out of the window for the
spirit to move me. I started
out like this, “As the silent
silvery Seneca slowly slides in
her seaward solitude searching
for small streamlets.” And there
I got stuck and stayed. I had
nothing in mind but the ethe-
rial grandeur of words, and I-
was just trying to scale the
heights with them.

Here he is the leader in the
propagation of the Communist
doctrine and heads a little
group which he calls the Karl
Marx Study Club. He has been
investigated by the FBI. We
don’t know if Hans has a card
in the Communist Party or not,
but to us it really doesn’t mat
ter. The opinions he espouses
are enough to type him. He
has all the earmarks of a Com
munist.
Who was responsible for
Freistadt receiving his appoint
ment to the scholarship? We
don’t know, but David Lilien-
thal and his Commission cer
tainly showed recklessness and
incompetence in giving Frei
stadt a scholarship.
The Atomic Energy Commis
sion can compensate for its
poor judgment by depriving
Freistadt of his scholarship im
mediately If they don’t they
are not only wasting the tax
payers’ money but endanger
ing the safety of the Nation.
Wle are told that right now
Freistadt has no access to the
atomic energy secrets. He is
in the training period. But he
is in line for advancement
eventually to a post where he
will have access to the secrets.
However, we believe Hans
Freistadt will never get that
far. The American public will
wake up one of these days.
Still it is the height of foolish
ness to continue the scholar
ship which enables him to come
to Carolina. It should be given
to some person with loyalty un
questioned.
Meanwhile, Hans Freistadt
sits back in Chapel Hill, pen
in hand, writing out his Com
munist beliefs for publication
in the paper, utilizing to the
fullest extent Carolina’s liberal
ism. It is one thing for Mr.
Freistadt to go to school and
criticize our Government while
paying his own expenses. It
is a horse of a different color
for him to accept a scholar
ship from the United States and
then turn on the hand that
helps him. Just how Freistadt
can eulogize Russia while ex
ercising the freedom and gen
erosity of America is beyond
our comprehension.
And the really great sufferer
in the whole affair is the Uni
versity of North Carolina.
Through rumor and exaggera
tion the word has gotten out
that this institution is a hot
bed of communism. Nothing
could be farther from the
truth. Ninety-nine and a frac-

THE BABE RUTH STORY
tion percent of the students
have no interest in communism
whatsoever. The university and
students cannot help it if the
Atomic Energy Commission sees
fit to approve a scholarship
to individuals with question
able reputations.
Many say that the best way
to deal with communism is
through not publicizing it. We
are inclined to agree, but when
one of its leading advocates is
given a scholarship to prepare
for eventual work in an atomiq,
energy laboratory, then the
matter calls for action.
The students and Nation have
just cause to be indignant. Hans
Freistadt publicly brags of be
ing a Communist. H e in no
way merits governmental as
sistance. He should be depriv
ed of his scholarship immedi
ately for the sake of the good
name of the University of
North Carolina, the taxpayer’s
money, and the welfare of the
Nation.
