C, 28677 Dear Mr. Swann: Thank you very much for your letter of March 17. ‘The information which 1 “have about Basil Gaither and his children, as well as his ancestors, is to be found in _"History of Howard and Anne Arundel Counties, Maryland", by Warfield, and "Anne Arundel Gentry" by Newman. I think a copy of the first of these books is in the Library at Salisbury. Dr, Isaac Walter Jones was born in Davie County. He used to be a member of Joppa Church and practiced medicine in and near Salisbury before the War and after the War. He died in about 1905 and is buried in St. Mary! s Cemetery at ‘Chinagrove, N. C, ST ey naa The Beall family were neighbors of the Gaithers and Joneses in Maryland. How did you determine the full name of Abraham Rowan Jones? This is the first information which I had on this. I have never heard of the book about Joppa Cemetery. I wonder when it was published and if it has any statements in it about any of the Gaithers and Joneses. I have a copy of the marriage bond between Isaac Jones and Nellie Gaither, IF FE WF (¥e3-) 1. fang 3 7 " it tion SV 43.

I am happy to greet you at the beginning of your adminis- tration and in the midst of a great career.

Pausing for a moment, we look back with pride upon -the long and dis- tinguished administration pow con- cluded: twenty eventful years through depression, fire, famine, and slaughter unparalleled in the history of the world. But -in spite of tremendous difficulties, for Wake Forest College it was a period of phenomenal growth, expansion and enrichment, Chiefly as a result of this expansion and partly because of the fyranny of old Father Time, most of those whom I represent here today, some of them with many years of teaching in Wake Forest College, came in .during the presidency of Thurman D. Kitchin. In the faculty of 125, full-time or part-time, of the Bowman Gray School of Medicine, only two were members of the original staff on this carnpus. But, I must add, only two of the origi- nal staff have been lost. Of the eighty- . eight listed in the instruction division on this campus last year, only four- teen have served under three presi- dents, and only two others under two presidents. Five of your predecessors, President Tribble, served a total of ninety-nine years, and four of these a total of eighty-eight years. In fact, the longevity of presidents in office has been quite respectable. But I pause to add that this record is far short of the records of certain pro- fessors, who have thought fifty years’ tenure entirely too short. All of this is preliminary te my saying, as I turn to the futur@, that although you have responsibilities which require the strength of an Atlas, and opportunities which demand the accumulated wisdom of the ages, the burden need not be too heavy if we all apply what strength we have and pool any wisdom and intelligence we may possess. Speaking for the College of Liberal Arts, the Bowman Gray School of Medicine, the School of Law, and all other schools and departments which constitute Wake Forest College, I as- sure you that in assuming the heavy responsibilities of your office you do not stand alone.

EDUCATION AND RELIGION That recital underscores the fact that, in the minds of the Jordans, education is close- ly linked to the-church. For a period of 30 years. (1927-58) Senator Evererr JORDAN taught @ Sunday school class, Charley Jor- dan for 4 years labored with the committee which sought to find ways for merging the Methodist and Episcopal Churches. There was On@ period of 10 years when all the brothers except Prank—who, as a minister, qualify—were members of the board of stewards of their respective Meth- Odist churches. But the intereating thing about the Jordan family is not so muck that the oasic virtues of the father—reverence of education, dedica- tion to the family, and love of the church— were visited upon the sons as it is the fact that the essential character traits of the father were inherited by the sons. Henry Harriso& Jordan believed that the Lord helped those who first helped them- He believed in hard work. a “A OF @ parsonage—and a recital of nite sedi eee in this area makes it Bound as if he operated as 4 part- time contractor on the side—he was the man who first climbed the ladder and started to Grive the nails. He figured that once he started, his tion would come up the ladder and join him. In the lives of Bis sons there are innumer- able instances which can be cited to illus. trate the fact his example was catching. But & page Out of the life of Everett Jordan—a Man who has no hobby unless it is work— Will suffice, Along @bout 1921 Everett hired on fs a mill hand in a Gastonia textile plan. By 1927 he was superintendent Of one of ‘the largest textile mills in Gastonia. As the Reverend Prank Jordan Bays, “Everett “has & real mechanical knack. He Started out on & subveyor's “carrying a chain and he ended up with transit.” Everett swiftly had need for this knack Just as he was soon to need his dogged drive and his conviction that there is no problem that can’t be sotved by hard work. In 1928 Henry Jordan, then the best den. tist in Belmont Because he was the only one, joined with hia Uncle, Charlie Sellers, and his brother, Byerett, and purchased the bankrupt White- son cotton mill in County village of The price tag—$140,000—was high for what they got.. The mili had béen s hut down for 4 years. The houses, unpainted shacks lochted of ‘barren clay flats, were falling apart 8nd gmost of the mill familics had long sifice moved awa y The mil} itself Operated by water power (supplemented by diese] engines in times of drought and the nearest powerlines, located somhe 15 milles away, did nét reach Saxapahaw until the mid-1950's. Besides ‘being close tb obsolete, this mill. managed by Evrmerr Jozpan, made its entry into @ cuthroat field just at the time the tex. tile industry began its long slide into the devastating depression of the 1930's. “When miy wife and I first came to Saxa- pahaw,” Evererr Jorpaw Says, “She took One look ad then she said, ‘EVERerr, you take the mili, I'll take the village.’ That they did. Over the years Mrs. Jor- dan—she came to be known as “the hunter of hedges” because of her passion for privet borders around thé mill homes—made the village a model of fits kind. EVERETT did the same with the mill, but at a more labored pace. Se He had no more than arrived pahaw when the dam. of power, broke. in Saxa- the single source Evererr was the first to - like the bad little girl, simp CONGRESSIONAL RECORD — SENATE climb into the water to start repairs, “See- ing me there in the water,” he says, “the tmillhands joined in.” A STRUGGLE TO VICTORY “For a period of years,” Charley Jordar says, “everybody knew that the Saxapahaw mill was busted except Evererr.” And by the time Evrrerr got around to realizing that he was skating.on thin financial ice, the mill was solvent and growing. That mill—it is a part of a string of milis operated by Everett and Henry Jordan— hired, maybe, 50 hands back in 1928. When ts sales went ag high as $44,000 in a single month, Everett Jordan thought he was in high cotton, Today the three Jordan con- trolled mills employ some 1.200 workers and their gross sales run along at about $15 million a year. ' Hard work? Sure. But there was more than that. There was also th: Jordan trait & Marked one in the father—oys making do with what there was at hand. “ There wasn’t much money in our home when we were Kids,” Dr, Henry Jordan says. “So papa when he tackled a job, would first try one Spproach to a solution. If that didn’t work he'd shift over to another and keep this Up until he somehow got the job done.” This resiliency is a family characteristic. Henry Jordan practiced dentistry ‘in Bel. mont for 20 years. (His canny. sense of timing—a real factor in his political suc. cess—-and his “Easy now, this isn’t gx to hurt” approach to tough political Ib lems very likely trace back to this period.) When his legs gave out on him (a result of a broken vertebrae) he made the shift from dentistry to the management of a tex- tile mill in Cedar Falls with grace and marked success. He later shifted. from in- dustry to politics with equal ease. Prank Jordan started out as an employee of the British-Ameriean Tobacc Co. (a job he gave up because his father, who liked to have his boys near-at hand, advised him against going abroad), Later he took 9g crack at banking in Gastonia a the manner of } istry. , EVERETT JORDAN, on his climb. ffom mill- band to mill superintendent to miilowner became associated with what was the most conservative group of businessmen | 1 Nort Carolina. Yet, despite that backer served successfully as chairman of Democratic Party’s ~executive comn (He was the first man to hold thi: p through two administrations—and the the administration of Gov; rnors as politi ly unlike as W. Kerr Sex tt, Willi d, Luther Hodges. ) Later, he served as De mo- cratic national ex mmitteeman from North Carolina. Since 1968, first by appointment and then by election, he h: I U.S, Senate. A LINK TO THE Charley Jorda remained at Duke Uniy ersity since 1 ; Sesses this same resiliency. He started out to be a lawyer and then shifted to education and, more specifically, to the public relat aspects of education. His wife says th resiliency results from the fact th € y doesn’t kz gw A glance at his r rd of while he how to say “No.” activity at the local and State ranges from work with the local the presidency of the North c phony Society—tends to of view. In these shifts—dentistry to industry to politics industry to politics, business to the ministry and law to public relations—there is one pole star, It is people “Papa always said,” Henry J “that if you want friends } have to be friendly.” To this Charley. Jordan adds “Our father taught us to respect people.” Evenerr Jorpan chimes in with, "2 never ievel-—it YMCA to rolina Sym- pport that point rdan recalls, ‘ng knew @ person who in him.” nd Frank by saying, “I don’t know better than people They : teresting—and the best i With the sons < compelled at 4-year friends in new surr &imost as necessary the case of the Jord borr Peop! yundin : attracted th ministry and people the ; te desti In fact people ha these. di nations is any family tn Nr more friends.

I'd ‘rather trust his judgment than any Gastonia real- tor I know.” ALL GOOD BUSINESSMEN Henry Harrison Jordan frequently strayed off on business veltures of the most un- preacher-like nature,-but his wandering al- ways was done in the name of the Lord. When, in his pastorg) journeying, he was sent to Mocksville he found that tiny Davie County village in the grip of a panic. There was no employment and families Were leav- ing the village to move to the tobacco and textile mills in Winston-Salem. To eorrect this biéeding away of his flock, the Reverend Henry H. Jordan and some as- sociates organized a furniture plant. Later in Walkertown, he organized a chair factory m order to create local job opportunities In both cases he served these plants as an unsalaried officer and fn each case the plants were, at least until they burned dew, profitable businéss ventures. All four of the Jordan boys possess this same knack for careful money Management and the same skifi in business en These traits help explain the sticcess of all four brothers. In the case of Henry and Evererr they also explain two rather consid- erable fortunes : It's worth noting, however, that the sons, like the father, regularly have placed service above the amassing of wealth. Frank took that step when he moved into the ministry. Charley has remained at Duke University— and remained despite attractive offers else- where—for the samié reason. And the feel- ing of service to others is one of the factors that steered Henry and Everer? into politics When Dr. Jordan, in his warm and affable fashion, chats about his career he talks less about himself than about what he was able to do for others. In the period, for example, he served as chairman of the State highway commission under Gov. W. Kerr Scott, he lists three high points: Getting the farmers of North Carolina out of the mud through the $200 million rural road bond program. (Administering this program, Dr. Jordan probably spent more money faster and more effect/vely than any other North Carolinian.) The program of separating the prison sys- tem from the highway department. This separation, completed just this year, traces back to a study Dr. Jordan initiated as head of the highway commission. The establishment of the first rehabilita- tion program for youthful first offenders at @amp Butner.

ALEXANDER CHILDREN’S CENTER The Alexander Children’s Center, Char- lotte, founded in 1882, as a home for in- digent people, by the First and Second Presbyterian Churches, has plans for con- structing a $750,000 building near Mat- thews to care for thirty-six emotionally . Gisturbed children. Today the Center is non-denominational. In 1903, it became an é6rphanage and in 1947, following a study. by the Child Welfare League of America, it became a Center for emotionally dis-. turbed children. It is still partly church- supported. The Institution is the only one outside of state hospitals that “know- ingly takes emotionally disturbed children for full-time care”. The Director of the Home is John W. Baughman who joined the Center in 1955.

Linemen’s Lives A little thing - tacking posters, ad cards and political signs on pow- er poles - can endanger our line- en's lives. Here’s why: These same tacks, also, may tear the lineman’s rubber gloves - and even a pin prick makes the gloves unsafe, Our linemen work both day and night in all of weather to keep cleetricity on the lines to you, kinds Their safety and welfare are price- less. So, please don’t put signs on power poles. It’s a little thing, but it can cost a lineman his life. |) o joo’ ee i Lo, joe fe. tod fou Vokes ce / oe hh oii < ae bic innen™, e pa * r Ae Os te CH bs Zz Ce } Ac pint o r | o Ton BEF we Limet Ral do 6 6) © 1 en.
