"Our Declaration of Independence is not great because it is the first expres- 'sion of the democratic theory of gov- ernment," Prof. William A. Frayer of the Eufopean History department stated yesterday in his talk on "The Foundations of Democracy" before the meeting of the Daughters of the Amer- ican Revolution at the home of Mrs. Horatio J. Abbott, 820 Oxford Road. "Rather, its 'greatness lies in its ex- pression of current ideas in immortal language." Prof. Frayer traced the influences throughout the world from 1760 ~o 1776 which led directely to the Decla- ration of Independence, especially stressing the ideas contained in the writings of-the philosophers of the eighteenth century. That democracy is being challenged more at the present time than at any period since 1776, is another startling statementmade by Prof. Frayer. "Mil- lions of .people on the continent of Europe at this moment believe democ- racy to be a failure," he said. "It is for the United States to prove that the ideas embodied in the Declaration of Independence can be worked out successfully.".
