By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, June 18.—Nothing less than “a vast spiritual renaissance' can prevent Western civilization from enterifig upon a new dark age, Glenn Frank, editor of the Century Maga- zine and recently elected president of the University of Wisconsin, said to- day in his commencement address to 669 graduates of the college of the City of New York. The new reformation depends large- ly on the rising of a ‘“truly great spiritual leader, who will have to be a combination of Francis Bacon and Billy Sunday,” Dr. Frank said. This leader will not be a wandering free lance, he said, but some one in an official position, possibly a future President of the United States. Willlam Jennings Bryan's ‘present Quixotic attack on evoiution and the fundamentalist movement in the churches are only eddies in the main current of world thought and aspira- tion,” according to Dr. Frank, and ‘‘do not indicate we are on the eve of a revival of blind credullly.” VETERAN GETS 3 YEARS.
