to explore the efficiency Of
Montgomery's "hearing-speak-
ing" French lessons as COM
pared to the old-fashioned
reading and writing method
Staff members said that
many colleges now are switch
ing to conversational instruc-
ton. They also said that
Montgomery's pupils are given
French grammar along with
their conversation lessons.
The addition of a second
modern foreign language for
ninth graders. to supplement
the extensive instruction in
French which begins as early
as fourth grade in some schools,
was recommended to the board
by an advisory committee.
The group also urged that a
foreign language program be
available to all county elemen-
tary school children. At present.
81 schools have daily French
lessons in the fourth through
sixth grades. Another 80
schools have televiSed lessons
each day. with help from
regular of travelling teachers.
There are SO elem entary
schools in the county.
Board members also consid-
cred the problem of how to
cope with thousands of chill
dren, soon to enter high schools,
who began learning French in
the third and fourth grades.
A example according to staff
members, is evident in Kens-
ington Junior High School
where those who have had
three or four years of French
will be placed in special classes
to suit their varying abilities
next year.

Billion in Montgomery

An 80-page, pocket size book
let on Montgomery County's
governmental activities during
1861 was presented to the coun-
Gil yesterday by County Man
ager Mason A. Butcher.
The report. which will be
distributed to civic and busi-

ceeded 81 billion for the first
time.
1t also noted that the coun-
tvs liquor dispensaries netted
over 81 million for the fifth
consecutive year.
In other business, Council
President David L. Cahoon
voiced the possibility that
present council members will
not have an opportunity n to
vote or comment officially on
a much discussed master plan
which now is in the final stages
OF production by Maryland
planners.
Subject to Hearings
Mr.. Cahoon based his predic-
ton on the fact that if the
report is published on schedule
by midsummer, it then viii
be the subject of about siz
weeks of public hearings before
being turned over to the council
for consideration.
These necessary activities
could take up much of the re-
mainder of 1862, without the
opportunity for any action or

Apparently there has been
a misunderstanding about the
councils position on the master
plan," Mr.. Cahoon said.
I'VE have not had the plan
presented to us, and the plan
ming commission is not waiting
for official council action at
this time.
Several months ago we did
meet Harland Bartholomew,
the commissions planner con-
Sultant. who gave us a two
hour briefing -.
Our impression was that
the basic concepts in the plan
conformed to many planning
goals previously suggested by
the council"

Mr.. Cahoon said he meant
to imply no criticism of the
planning commission.

AS we face the New year, the greet
"A ing is conventionally "a happy and
prosperous new year" The Herald
greets each of its readers with this
sincere wish.
The new year will be what We make
it. Wishes come true only when we
make them esme true. Happiness and
prosperity don't just happen. All pro-
gress is made because someone or some
group does lot of planning and then
executes the plans through effort. This
means that every Individual exert
maximum effort and when opportunity
comes cooperate with community ef-
fort for progress.
Many problems face this nation in
1862. internationally the Cold War
will continue probably at faster pace.
The threat of Communist aggressive
ness is ever present because the Com
munists have detailed plans for the
take over of this world and they work
to that end patiently and consistently.
The people of the free world can do
no less to meet this threat.
Propaganda spread through the
spoken word and the written word, at
tempts to glorify the doctrine of Com
munism. Khrushchev has the ability to
shock the world at will through his
bombastic speeches, consisting mainly
Of threats, and announcements Of Rus
sian achievements, particularly in
science. He makes Communism appear
its best.
When a peep is taken behind the
Iron Curtain the other side of the coin
is seen. The Russian people lead
drab existence. Families live in crowd
ed quarters. Fathers and mothers are
assigned to duties and work in the Com
munist plan. Children are cared for,
educated and undoctrinated in Com
munist schools Food is not plentiful
and consumer goods, such as clothes,
furniture, drugs, etc., are short in sup
