Sullivan Discusses Case Against U.O. EDITOR'S NOTE: The follow ing statement by Dr. Celestine J. Sullivan, Jr., sets forth his position relative to the proceed ings at the meeting of the State Board of Higher Education Tune 13. at which the State Board continued the decision of Dr. Sullivan's superiors declin ing to hire him for the coming year. Before the Board. Dr. Sulli van was allowed to state his case, but he was not permitted to make a rebuttal to allega tions presented by Dean Eldon L. Johnson on behalf of the University administration. Dr. Sullivan claims the proce dures in his case have been ar bitrary and undemocratic, set ting precedents which may jeopardize the rights of other teachers. University officials have declined to make any com ment on the charges advanced by Dr. Sullivan. To the Editor: On June 13 at a hearing before the State Board of Higher Education. Dean John son, speaking for the administra tion of the University of Oregon, accused me of incompetence in the discharge of my duties as assist' ant professor of philosophy, and this charge was reported, in the press and in the radio the next day as the alleged ground for my dismissal from the University of Oregon. Since I was not allowed to answer Johnson but only listen to him at the hearing, I want to take this opportunity to inform the people of Eugene of the charac- nings, we must leave this place, my of me, a denunciation that is in every way true to the type em ployed by totalitarian leaders when they choose to smear those who oppose them. Dean Johnson accused me of incompetence, but he presented absolutely no evidence to sup port his charge. I have a trans cribed copy of his speech in my possession, so I know whereof I speak. He stated that he and other administrators did not ap. prove of me, but he offered no grounds for such disapproval. Ap parently in his eyes, disapproval by administrators is equivalent to incompetency. What is more, he did not even mention the name of my depart ment head, Dr. Townsend, who had consistently approved of me over a period of 10 years and up to the time of his death last De cember, over the whole time that I was associated with him in the department of philosophy, and who gave reasons for his approv al. - . Now I ask you and the peo ple of Eugene, what kind of demo cratic procedure is it that allows a public official publicly to de nounce a subordinate as incom petent' and at the same time to offer no evidence for such de nunciation and to ignore com pletely the evidence to the con trary? But Dean Johnson not only ac cused me of incompetence; he questioned my good faith by say ing that when he came to write a notice to me that I would not be employed after June 30, 1949, "nothing remained but to put Into writing what Dr. suiuvan naa con sistently ignored when-told oral ly." The implication was that over the years of the refusal to grant permanent tenure, i naa Dn told repeatedly and by someone in authority that I should leave the University but had not done so. Not at any time during this period did I ever receive such notice, and a grave injustice was done to me and my family by these procedures. It is my con tention that the injustice in my case threatens all members of the faculty. Thus, within 10 minutes, Dean Johnson accused me of incompe tence Without evidence and of bad faith without evidence, and these charges presumably were the basis of the concurrence of the State Board of Higher Education in the action of the administration in terminating my services of 11 con secutive years to the University. Is this, I ask again, democratic? Is this the sort of procedure on the part of public officials that should be tolerated in a democracy? Ob viously not. But who is there in or out of the University who will challenge such men as Dean John son and the man whose orders he executes; who wiiychallenge them and their ruthless dictatorial ways?

I have challenged them, and for this I and my family must leave the University community and Eugene, leave the walks on the hills round about the town, the walks that I have loved so much and the hills that reminded my tatner wnen he was here some years ago of the saying of the psalmist about another town than Eugene in another place: "Moun tains are round about it; so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth now and for ever"; leave also the pleasant side streets, like 12th and Ferry where we have lived this past year, a bit of old Eugene and a lovely place, whether all white under winter snow or presenting an ever changing pattern of sun and shade under the great maple trees in the long summer days and golden eve ter of Johnson's denunciation family and I, and leave, above all. our friends who are so dear to us, pull up our roots, strike our tents and move on, into the desert, into the night. But do not ask, citizens of Eu gene, members of the faculty, stu dents of the University, all you who do not know us and all) you who do, do not ask for whom the Deu ions it toils for you.
