DIR. Gideonse declares, that the

the national defense legislation
might have forced a professional re
examination of the substance of col

answer to this challenge was not a
vigorous re-thinking of programs as
they had developed. but rather a
variety of speed up" programs un-

DR.. Gideonse is sharply critical
