SPACE-AGE CRISIS in EDUCATION! - Herbert W Armstrong - July 1958

Herbert W Armstrong

The United States is dangerously behind Russia in vital sciences and technology. Suddenly America awakens to an alarming deficiency in its schools and colleges. You will be shocked to learn the real reason in this eye-opening article. The first SPUTNIK did not puncture the moon, but it did blast a gaping hole in American complacency in its EDUCATION! Our American folklore pictured our schools as vastly superior in every respect to those of Russia. It assumed confidently that what we have been pleased to term "American know-how" in science, industry and technology had a monoply on efficiency and power. Why, didn't our vaunted INDUSTRY twice come to the rescue, and win TWO WORLD WARS? In our smug complacency we felt proudly SUPERIOR! - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
