PERSHING URGING - AMERIGANS T0 VOTE Says Indifference on Election Is National Eyil By The Assooiated Press, v Indlanapalh Nov. 16.—American citizens must be educated to accept their fundamental natignal responsi- bilities, if they are to coptinue in the enjoyment of their rights as. indi- viduals, General John J. Pershing de- clared in a statement issued today through the American Legion. Statis- tics of fae franchige, General Pershing sald, sliow that less than half of the) eligible voters actually cast their bal-: Icts. i After declaring that the people of, the United States are progressing to- ward a fuller realization of the obli- gations of their national citizenship, but do not yet meet their national re- sponsibilities to perfection, General Pershing’$ statement continued: “It ts here that education has its greatest opportunity for achievement. What can education do to make sure that when young men and women en- ter upon citizenship they are as eager te assume the responsibilities as they are to enjoy, the privilege? How can the living objectives stated in the pre-| amble to the constitution be so in- stilled into them that they. will con- sciously gtrive to realize them? “These are to me among the most vital of our educational problems. Na- tional developmént depends on their| successtul solution. They can bé pro- gressively solved if America deter- mines to do it. Education week is 2 | g good time to begin work alrected to- ward this most significant end.” The statement was issued as an ap- peal to observe American education week, November 18 to 24, which the Legion is fostering in cooperation| with the National Educational associ- ation and the United States Bureau of | FEducation.
