Americans Should Unite, Speaker Says

All Americans should unite in building a stronger democracy, said county prosecutor Lester Donaldson in a speech before members of the student body of Harding High School Monday afternoon.
Mr. Donaldson pointed out that there are forces which are attempting to undermine American democracy, and that the only way these forces can be offset is by individual participation of each American in building this country's democracy.
Americans should take an interest in the government of this country and should accept responsibilities when they are placed upon their shoulders, Mr. Donaldson said.
