until they understand what is

AS professional consultant to

l. There is no substitute for
adequate time to learn a for

years, the optimum between 10
and IL years. The world over,
effective foreign language pro-
grams begin in grade school.
2. There is to date no known
substitute, and no sign of one
on the horizon, for a FILES
program taught by competent
specialists using good mate
rails. This has been the stand
ard in civilized countries for
hundreds, even thousands, of
years. The specifications for
such a FILES program in
American schools have been
spelled out in two statements

data strongly support the state
ment of the MIA.
