Soviet Revises
|StudyProgram
For School Kids

MOSCOW N-The Soviet govern
ment has decided that Russian
school kids have been working too
hard, and that they've been getting
too much book learnin' and not
enough practical education.
So it has revised the study pro-
gram for primary and high school
grades for TIE new term to cut
down the work load and give the
kids more to do with their hands
and less with their noggins.
Izvestia, official newspaper of
the Soviet government, and the
Teachers Gazette predict that the
new program will make little Ivan
not only q smarter but a stronger
boy.
The kids of Moscow and Lenin-
grad are going back into school
uniforms, and in some of the pri-
mary schools "coeducation" is be-
ing restored. Boys and girls are
going back together in the same
classes after some years OF segre-
cation.
Parents had complained their
children were subjected to over
strain at examination time.
To increase practical education,
Russian primary school children
are going to get garden and shop
work and less biology, geography
and psychology.

ment.
MEDICAL EXPENSES - You

a declaration of estimated tax.
RAPID DEPRECIATION - II
you're a businessman or farmer,
you may use the new double de-
clining balance method of quick
depreciation on a plant or piece

the first year Of life, you can write
off twice the amount for deprecia-
ton now allowed; thus you can
concentrate most of the write-off
in the early years of use of the
item.
The accelerated depreciation
plan will benefit chiefly corpora
tons. They get other relief, too,
including:
More liberal treatment for re-
search expenditures.
Greater freedom to set aside sur
pluses.
The right to Offset a loss against
profits of two prior years instead
Of one as now.
Elimination for utilities Of the 2
per cent penalty tax on consoli-
dated returns.
Greatly expanded depletion al
lowances for mining companies.

rate, at which time it automatical-
ly drops to Al per cent unless con-
gress continues it again.

received here.
The prohibitive duties have not
been reduced, it was stated, but

duty on the packages, before these
will be confiScated by the state.
The new regulations also state
that reduction in duties can be
made by local authorities eff the
fact has been established that the
recipient cannot, in part or com
pletely, pay the imposed duties"
Packages on which the required
duty is not paid, are turned over
to the local authorities for distri-

authorities see fit.

Twelve thousand Catholic
lens here at the 51st annual
Association convention. They went
back to schools throughout the
country impressed with the need
of long range planning to meet the
coming education boom,
The educators got down to speci-
fic, smaller problems, too-how to
evaluate curricula; how TO train
better teachers; how to care for
the deaf, the blind and the other
wise exceptional child, and how to
integrate even more fully the relig-
ious teaching which is the core of
Catholic education.
Four Problems Outlined
The problems stacked up like
this:
l. TEACHERS. Most educators
saw the reeds of teachers as the
most crucial problem facing the
Catholic school system. New
school buildings and classroom
space are drasfieslIY needed in
some areas. But school sUperin-
tendenfs said Catholics have been
Wonderfully generous" in build
ing schools, that most fund drives

the top. The big problem now.
they agreed, is TO train Religious
and lay teachers 10 staff the
schools and to meet the new ii.
nancisI strain Of lay teacher sal
aries.
2. V0CATI0NS. Teaching Sis
tiers, Brothers and priests are need
ed by the thousands. Biggest po-
tential help stressed by the educa-
tors Is the parents. Cooperation oil
mothers and fathers would ease
this gigantic problem of the Catho-
lie schools.
3. LAY TEACHERS. They are
here to stay" the convention was
told by His Eminence Samuel
Cardinal Striteh, Archbishop Of
Chicago. He urged the Religious
TO welcome the lay teachers into
the Catholic school system. The
main problems, however are TO
provide special training needed
for good Catholic instructors. to
pay lay teachers adequate wsses,
and to interest young people IN
the new vocation" of dedicated
teaching while in the lay state.
4. EXCEPTIONAL CHILDREN.
There are some 100000 of them,
calling for special teaching in Ca
tholic schools. More than 100000
specifically trained teachers are
needed to instruct them, NCEA will
concentrate a nationwide effort to
meet this need.
Vision, Planning Needed
Breadth of vision and long
range planning to provide spiritual
ly and intellectually competent
teachers" both lay and Religious,
stressing the Importance of the
teacher shortage problem, were
called for in resolutions adopted
by the convention.
At the closing general session,
Father Robert J. Slavin, O.P., pres
ident of Providence (R.I) College,
called for statistical study of all
problems as a basis of planning
He said: "A broad base of factual
evidence indicating our need and
our potential must be the first
step in looking to the future"
