Role in Education
 Advocated for |. l.. o.

A strong plea for international functional organizations, such as the International Labour Office, to become major agencies of so- ciaI education was made by John Grierson, Canadian Government Film Commissioner before a spe- cial gathering of delegates to the uO Conference in Philadelphia.
 Insisting that distractions about internationalism had to be trans lated into terms of daily experi- ence, Grierson declared: If we are to develop international coopera- tion, we have got to develop edu- cation in internationalism, and that begins on the local doorstep. What people want to know today is where they get off. They want to know what these fancy notions mean in terms of the homes they will live in, the bread they will eat, and the families they will raise" Groups such as the ILO, he pointed out, had a remarkable opportunity because they had all the data on the problems and in- terests which really bound men in all lands together. "If the ILO is pledged to the improvement of working standards and working conditions throughout the world, it is of necessity pledged to the duty of world education in the matter of standards and condi- tions."
