November 9th 1967
Hon. Dan Moore
Governor of North Carolina
Raleigh, North Carolina.
Dear Governor Moore!
I read Mr. Jesse Helms Editorial, which appeared as a second printing,
in the Greensboro Daily News on October 7th 1%7. I agree with Mr.
Helms Editorial, completely.
I, for one, m protesting the State spending tax money in the hiring
of Howard Fuller as a Lecturer at Chapel Hill, N. C. I am also, protesting the permitting ©f "BLACK poWfiB" holding a Forum at U.N.C.-G,
along with Ronald Finney, the thetf of Black Power, and Howard Fuller.
Governor Moore, what are w@ teaching at our Universities? Communis®,
Black Power and the "0VE8 WK» OF OUS G »VER1ENTM. If this continues,
then n© wonder we don*t have enough money to pay for our teachers.
If we are going to hire such as Howard Fuller at Chapel Hill, N. C. and
permit Finney and all those who were there, to held a Forma in a State
Owned and State supported buildings, then why not hire "Sat Brown,
Carmiehaei. Casalus Clay and Martin Luther King te come and operate our
Universities.
If there are students in either Chapel Mill or U. N. C.« G., who want
to Demonstrate in a school which is supported by the taxpayers of North
Carolina and who want to learn mere about Communism, then send them home
and let their Draft Boards send them to VIET _ NAM, where so many of our
boys are now, daily giving up their lives, and then they too, will soon
learn all they want about Communism.
Who runs our Universities? These Communistic Students and Professors or
do we have a Board of Trustees, who have the %UTSM to run them on the
basis of the Freedom which our fore-fathers fought and died for.
According to some of the students at U. N. C. - C, the NEWS has not
published the TRUE STATSMSKTS made by some of those attending th© Forum.

| Title | [Letter of response to William Friday from John W. Davis] |
| Date | 1967-11-09 |
| Date approximate? | yes |
| Description | This photocopied letter is the response of Greensboro accountant John W. Davis to William Friday, president of the University of North Carolina. Friday had requested that Davis meet with him and with Chancellor James Sharbrough Ferguson of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG) about issues raised in an earlier letter. Davis had been upset about the Black Power Forum held November 1-3 at UNCG and about the hiring of activist Howard Fuller at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In his response, Davis refuses to meet with Friday and Ferguson and restates his displeasure over both issues with some degree of sarcasm. There are also newspaper clippings attached, including two letters to the editor of the Greensboro Record (one by Mr. Davis) and a column from a publication called The Democrat, dates October 5, 1967. |
