however, that the procedure of the
Rural Institute of Information has
inspired whole communities to strive
to learn TO read, so they might be
further helped with their problems
To meet this need the institute
first got out a little book dispersed
to some 10000 persons whose names
were supplied by Chile's rural police
as having at least one member each
who might share its contents with
others and so. like a stone thrown

Of it and a primer have been dis
pensed TO some 100000 additional
tenant farmers, workers and share
choppers, who have written more
than 10000 letters to the institute
for help with their personal prob

managed to give individual atten-

cooperation with all the depart
