Duncan Speaks af
Prospect Graduation
Prospect State Representa
tive Robert Duncan, speaking
at commencement exercises at
Prospect High school Wednes
day evening, said Americans
can avoid the pitfalls of other
societies in history only
through education and partici
pation in government and
world affairs.
Recalling the world situa
tion at the time of his own
graduation 20 years ago, the
speaker compared the crises
then confronting the freedom-
loving nations with the perils
faced by the democracies to
day. He blamed ignorance,
apathy and, indifference on
the part of the free peoples
for the spread of tyranny over
the earth in the years preced
ing World War I.
Such countries as France
and Germany found it easier
to rely on the "father image"
than to participate and to gov
ern themselves. Activity in
affairs of government on all
levels, development of inter
est in growing problems of ed
ucation and keeping abreast
with the current world situa
tion will help to keep the for
mula in balance and prevent
the spread of tyranny in pres
ent times, he said.
