Carleton Stanley's address to the Ontario Educational Association

Item consists of an annotated typescript of an address delivered by Carleton Stanley at the Ontario Educational Association meeting in Toronto on April 18, 1933, discussing Plato's interpretation of modern civilization, the unwillingness of many teachers to truly have freedom ("they are not free because they are willing robots, they do not have the initiative to assert themselves"), maintaining faith in reason, and the threat posed in all fields by the absence of considerations of impacts on civilization.
