Taylor Declares Russian Education Cannot Answer American Problems

mulation of the Soviet system provide satisfactory solutions to problems of American education, Taylor stated last night. at the Ford Hall Forum, he urged development of a "more sensible, hardheadedly idealistic approach."

Ten years ago, Taylor noted, the people of the United States seized on Communism as the most important problem threatening the country. with the containment of the Soviet Union as the paramount goal, Americans began to preach a counter- of superior materialism.

Khrushchev continually cites the United States as the cultural and economic ideal which he is striving to at- Taylor commented. On the other American leaders stress either or regaining supremacy Russia, depending on their party .

This tendency, Taylor asserted, the United States on one side a bilateral struggle for world domination. When Russia acts, America losing its capacity to find imaginative and dynamic solutions. Concentrating on defeating the Soviet Union, Taylor maintained, the United States is become more and more like it.

Agitation in favor of sovietizing the American educational system has become increasingly apparent since the first Sputnik, Taylor noted. Although the Russians have made many striking achievements, he maintained, their emphasis upon a long and rigid study schedule has created a totally impersonal educational system.

Decrying this alienation of the individual, Taylor described several of its less extreme manifestations in contemporary America. Replacement of the weekly essay with machine-graded objective tests forces students to regurgitate abstract bits of general information, according to Taylor.

An atmosphere of anonymity and abstract impersonality also pervades the American college campus, Taylor declared. The practice of awarding professorships on the quantity of published material has reached its ultimate.

Asserting the need to foster privacy, absorption, and lonely contemplation, Taylor described the silence and apparent acquiescence of college students as "very deceptive." To illustrate the cynicism with which many college students view the mechanized conformity of modern America, he quoted a "disillusioned sophomore at a big-name eastern institution," who said, "With pocket radios we'll never walk alone."
