A major new program of career training for those on
the middle management level will be inaugurated this
fall. Details on page 11.... And for those to whom ad-
vancement hasn't come as quickly as they expected, or
who feel they are blocked in their career, some hints
on page 17.... Financing a college education canbe tough
and it's something most of us have to be concerned about
whether the kids are still toddlers or graduating next
year. The article beginning on page 5 suggests one way
of raising the money and will be helpful to everyone
facing this problem.... There's another in our series
on the Senior Officer schools, this time the Senior Sem-
inar in Foreign Policy at FSI. See page 14.... And an
article on what is probably the most practical teaching
machine ever invented, readily available in the home.

USE A new booklet, EFFECTIVE USE OF INTERPRETERS
OF FOR TRAINING PURPOSES, has been published by OTR.
INTERPRETERS It contains guidelines for instructors and case officers
who use interpreters in training foreign nationals.' The
booklet is a distillation of the experience of 'many instruc-
tors in working through interpreters combined with the
application of good instructional principles. Concise
and informal in style, this booklet gives suggestions on:
selecting and training an interpreter; using the training
interpreter most effectively; the use of instructional aids
with an interpreter and foreign students; and some prac-
tical do's and don'ts to be followed in using interpreters
for training purposes. Copies for Headquarters use may
be obtained by calling the Educational Specialist, OTR,
extension 6044; for copies for overseas use, call the
Training Assistance Staff, extension 5172.

INTELLIGENCE A tentative program has been completed for the October
REVIEW running of the Intelligence Review. Flexibility in pro-
gramming this seminar is maintained to meet special
problems arising in the previous six months, but the
basic objectives of the course remain: to review the
current status of the intelligence profession; to study
new developments in the community and within CIA; and
to present an opportunity for experienced personnel to
examine and discuss office and inter-office problems
and relationships. One seminar is devoted to pertinent
developments in international communism. Lecturers
and panel groups review broad aspects of the intelligence
process and lead discussion periods. Selected topics are
chosen by seminar groups for more detailed study and
presentation.
Enrollment is limited to professional personnel who have
taken the Intelligence Orientation course and have a mini-
mum of five years' duty with the Agency, or have equiva-
lent experience. The Intelligence Review is a prerequi-
site for nomination to national service colleges.
Registration within the next month is advisable. For
further information cal on extension 5943.

ACADEMIC One of the functions of the OTR Registrar is to provide
COUNSEL information and advice to Agency employees interested
in college educational opportunities and scholarships,
fellowships, grants, and loans for themselves or for
their children. A library of publications on these sub-
jects is maintained in the office of the Registrar, Room
GC-03. The Registrar is available, by appointment, to
give counsel in this field. Call extension 5513. A handy
reference on college loans is contained in this issue of
the BULLETIN, page 5.
AMERICANS The Americans Abroad Orientations (AAO's) are now
ABROAD available for 75 countries. These briefings, which
ORIENTATIONS run full-time for an average of about two days, are
given by the Area Training Faculty of the OTR Lan-
guage and Area School to aid Agency employees and
their dependents to make the adjustments required in
living in a foreign country. They are required for all
Agency employees going to a given area for the first
time.

AMERICANS During fiscal year 1963 there were 213 AAO's on 61
ABROAD countries. Enrollment reached 826, of which 268 were
ORIENTATIONS dependents. This was a 42% increase in registrations
over the preceding year. Briefings on countries in Free
Europe led with 269 enrollments; the Far East and South
Asia with 238, were next; followed by Africa and the Mid-
dle East with 190 and Latin America with 129 (a 100% in-
crease over the preceding year).
WANT
AD
With these large enrollments, the total number of stu-
dent man-hours in the AAO program came to almost
17,000, requiring an average of about 20 hours per week
of teaching by each of three chief instructors. However,
because about 75% of the registrations come during the
peak spring season, the teaching load of the instructors
was boosted as high as 30 hours per week for periods of
a month or more. In order to ease this situation to the
extent possible, OTR needs the full support of Training
Officers in attempting to concentrate registrations for a
given area into the smallest possible number of briefings.
Training Officers are urged to phone in their require-
ments at the earliest possible date to exten-
sion 3477, and to send registration form (Form 73) to the
Registrar promptly.
The Area Training Faculty of OTR's Language and Area
School needs color slides of life overseas for its Ameri-
cans Abroad Orientations. If you have any slides taken
abroad which you no longer want, please send them to
LAS/ OTR, Room 2109, Washington Building Annex, Ar-
lington Towers, or call extension 3477.
25X1A
Color slides are a very effective way of illustrating life
in foreign lands, the people, their environment, behav-
ior, living conditions, etc. Any reasonably good color
transparency which shows the local scene, racial types,
native dress, housing, modes of transportation, and so
forth, can be useful. If in doubt about the elides' value
to us, please let us be the judges; the picture may have
a detail, insignificant to you, which fits into one of our
illustrated lectures. Identification of the country where
the pictures were taken is always essential, of the city
frequently no, and the date is almost as important.

Obtaining
Few parents today find
thems elves in such a for-
tunate financial posture
that the high cost of a col-
legiate education can be
managed exclusively- from
resources on hand. Even
in those cases where schol-
arships or grants are avail-
able, supplementary mon-
ey is frequently needed.
One source from which to
fill the gap between stu-
dents' financial resources
and the amount needed to
obtain a college education
may be one of the student
loanfunds which have been
established in recent years.

payment terms vary so widely that a careful compari-
son should be made before commitment to a particular
student loan arrangement. Consideration should be
given to the relative merits of seeking a student loan
through one of the funds available at a particular col-
lege, of obtaining educational financing directly from
a commercial bank, or of using the services of the
Credit Union. Each has some advantages and some
disadvantages.
NDEA For a long-term loan, unquestionably the most advan-
LOANS tageous financial arrangement is under the National
Defense Student Loan Program. As set up by the Na-
tional Defense Education Act of 1958, this program
permits establishment of student loan funds in elibible
colleges which provide 10% from their own sources to
match the 90% made available by the Federal Govern-
ment.
Before the NDEA program was instituted, fewer than
800 colleges had any form of loan plan, and in the
early days of the new program there was a tendency
for only less well-known colleges to participate in the
loan provisions of the 1958 Act. However, according
to a recent listing released by the Office of Education,
a sizable group of prestige colleges has joined the
NDEA program (Harvard, Yale, and Princeton among
others) and the number of participating colleges has
grown to 1,520.
In colleges which have elected to participate in the pro-
gram, no student of demonstrated ability is denied aid
under the NDEA. The law requires that special con-
sideration in selection of loan recipients be given those
of academic ability who express a desire to teach or to
those with superior capacity or preparation in science,
mathematics, engineering, or a modern foreign lan-
guage; however, any full-time student who is a U. S.
citizen and who is enrolled in a higher education insti-
tution in the United States or its territories is eligible.
Under the program a student may borrow up to $1,000
per academic year, up to a maximum of $5,000 during
the entire course of his higher education. Whether the

full amount of $1,000 or a lesser amount may be obtain-
ed in a given year is determined by the college. The
institution itself selects student recipients, arranges
the loans, and is responsible for their collection. Usu-
ally the official handling the loan program is the Direc-
tor of Admissions.
The only disadvantage of
this plan is the limita-
tion on the amount of the
loan in any year. How-
ever, the advantages are
so significant that they
may prove to be over -
riding.
For example, absolutely
no interest accrues prior
to the beginning of the
repayment period and
this period does not be-
tJ gin until one year after
,. i the borrower ceases to
be a full-time student.
I During periods of mili-
tary service (up to a total
of three years) no interest accrues and no repayment
is required. Interest during the repayment period is
at the rate of three percent per annum. The repayment
period can be as long as 10 years. If a student bor-
rower becomes a full-time teacher in public elementary
or secondary schools, 10 percent of the loan (plus in-
terest) is forgiven for each academic year of teaching
service, up to 50 percent of the loan. In the event of
death or permanent and total disability, the borrower's
obligation to repay is completely cancelled.
These easy conditions contrast with other student loan
funds, only a few of which forgive interest repayment
until education has been completed (generally, these
are state-wide loans guaranteed by enabling legislation
passed by a particular state to facilitate the' flow of low-
interest loans to student residents), and many of which
are set up for specific academic fields or have other

COLLEGE Next to the National Defense Education Act loans, loans
LOAN by the colleges themselves generally have the lowest
PROGRAMS interest rates and the most generous repayment sched-
ules. Loan information should be requested by the stu-
dent when he writes to the college for a catalog or other
informational materials. To receive a college loan, it
is usual that need be demonstrated. It is not uncommon
for college loans to be denied to students in the fresh-
man year, notwithstanding need.
Many colleges offer the services of Tuition Plan Inc.
for those parents who prefer to pay tuition and other
fees in equal monthly installments. The following plans
are usually available at the cost indicated:
One Year Plan ( 8 payments)-4% more than Cash Price
Two Year Plan (ZO payments)-5% more than Cash Price
Three Year Plan (30 payments)-6% more than Cash Price
Four Year Plan (40 payments)-6% more than Cash Price
The two-, three-, and four-year plans include Parent
Life Insurance for qualified parents; this coverage pro-
vides funds for the remaining period of schooling cover-
ed by the contract if the parent who has signed the con-
tract dies.
CREDIT Borrowing at the Credit Union offers a few advantages--
UNION the principal one being convenience. Moreover, it does
LOANS overcome the one disadvantage of loans under the Na-
tional Defense Student Loan program- -for educational
purposes the Credit Union will permit a loan as great
as $10,000. The rate of interest on an educational loan
is at the lowest Credit Union rate, i.e., one half of one
percent a month on the unpaid balance. To obtain a
Credit Union loan, the student involved plus a parent or
guardian must sign the note.
Unfortunately. Credit Union policy requires repayment
of the entire loan within a one year period. Thus, it is
of little benefit to the parent arranging to finance a son
or daughter through successive years of education. How-
ever, there may be times of temporary need when a re-
latively short-term loan makes sense; in these cases the

Credit Union plan may prove simplest and most advan-
tageous. It is possible, too, that a combination of loan
plans involving the Credit Union may prove valuable.
BANK In some cases, local or hometown banks are the best
LOANS source of student loans, for repayment arrangements
are liberal, there is usually insurance protection built
in, and coverage can be world-wide. Families with
higher incomes who have adequate resources to pay for
educational expenses may find it prudent to borrow from
a commercial bank rather than disturb annuities or in-
vestments. Further, some of the commercial plans to
finance education cover attendance at any scholastic
level anywhere in the world up to limits of $10,000 for
four or five years' tuition. Interest costs in some plans
are higher than appear on the surface.
A number of banks participate in the United States Aids
(USA) Funds program. To be eligible for these funds,
a student must have completed his freshman year of
college and attend a college participating in the USA
Funds program. A student may borrow up to $1,000 a
year and a combined total of $3,000. Repayment starts
within four months after the student graduates and pay-
ments are spread over 36 monthly installments. Appli-
cation is made through a college's student aid official
or hometown bank. If no hometown bank participates,
the Indiana National Bank of Indianapolis handles loans
for students attending colleges which are in the USA
Funds program. Although the maximum charge is six
percent simple interest from the date of the note, re-
payment of $3,000 by 40 months after graduation can
cost the student $663 or roughly 22 percent of the a-
mount borrowed.
The Assured College Education Plan, under the Wheel-
ing (W. Va.) Dollar Savings and Trust Company is good
any place in the continental United States. Students hav-
ing less than two years of college remaining are not
eligible. The bank deposits with the college at the be-
ginning of each semester or term whatever amount was
agreed upon in the loan program. Insurance protection
costs depend upon the age of the borrower. The interest
rate is five percent, figured at the time the college is

paid. There is a minimum monthly repayment of $40
plus insurance and a small service charge. Assuming
payments start when the student enters college and con-
tinue until two years after graduation (72 monthly pay-
ments), the student will repay $4,633 on a $4,000 loan.
The Insured Tuition Payment Plan is a prepayment
plan. State Street Trust Company of Boston serves as
trustee of the funds. Monthly payments begin before
the student enters college. For a plan that will pay the
college $2,000 a year for four years, for a parent be-
tween 40 and 60, monthly payment of $170-$175 for 48
months will cost about 4. 6 percent of the total $8, 000
required. Thus this plan is much less costly than a
number of other commercial educational loans.
Much depends on where you obtain a commercial loan.
Costs on a loan of $4,000 repaid in 72 months could
cost $579 in Illinois, $911 in Michigan, $659 in West
Virginia, $896 in Colorado, or $594 in Pennsylvania,
taking into account interest, insurance, and other
charges as well as restrictions on monthly repayment
amounts.
ORGANIZATION In addition to the student loan program of the Federal
LOANS Government, and the college loans, state loans, and
selected bank loans mentioned, there is one other gen-
eral loan source--organization loans. Alumni groups,
church groups, corporations or business establish-
ments, local PTA's, veterans' organizations, labor
unions, or service clubs often have money to lend to
college students, generally requiring little or no in-
terest. Some family affiliation or identification with
the group is often required.
. FURTHER Available within the Office of the Registrar, Office of
INFORMATION Training, are pamphlets and source references which
can save valuable time for parents or dependents faced
with the problem of making more detailed comparisons
on the varied loan programs available. These may be
consulted, or when necessary, an appointment may be
arranged for a conference with the Registrar. To con-
firm whether a specific college or university is partici-
pating in the National Defense Student Loan program,

What training would
M I DC A R E E R~ be best for those at
the midcareer level
in CIA? What,in addition to the experience and training
they already have, will improve their performance and
develop their ability to assume greater responsibilities?
What courses answer their needs?
25X1A
These A New questions have been much discussed
in the Office of Training and other parts of
the Agency. Headquarters of last March is
at least a partial answer. This notice establishes the
principle that there should be a formal training program
for selected employees at mid-career, primarily but not
exclusively cj 13's. It is the sense of this notice that the
experience, accomplishments, and po-
tential of each employee at this Programlevel
should be critically evaluated. Where appropriate, ac-
cording to the notice, a program of training, to be spread
out over several years, will be planned-,a program which
will assure maximum opportunity for the individual and
greatest use of his talents by the Agency. This program
should be tailored to the individual officer's needs, tak-
ing into consideration his prior experience and training
and probable future development and responsibilities. It
will, of course, be subject to periodic review and mod-
ification.
The in-for Agien itiative and responsibility
in this matter, as in any other
question of an individual's training, belong to the Deputy
Directors and Heads of Career Services, working through
Training Officers. However, each officer at this mid-
career level should Personae -1' think out for him-
self what are his hopes, his am-
bitions, his plans for his Agency career. Having done
this, he will be ready to work out in consultation with
the Training Officer of the Component a training program
which will help advance those ambitions and plans. Be-
fore doing this, he will have considered the courses,

 app
either OTR courses or others available outside the
Agency, in which he is interested and which will aid
him to achieve the goals he has set and to increase
his potential in the Agency. Approval of the planned
training will be a function of his Career Board, as
will scheduling of approved training to interfere as
little as possible with his work and the plans of his
office.
Each approved program will include attendance at a
basic course conducted by the Office of Training.
This six-week course is considered the "core" of the
midcareer program. It is not a prerequisite for any
other courses planned in an individual's program,
but must be a part of each individual's plan. While
other courses are parts of an officer's mideareer
program, none of them may be substituted for any
part of the Agency "core".
The purpose of the basic course is to broaden an
Agency officer's knowledge of the intelligence busi-
ness, nothing about the course is designed to add or
increase specific skills. To accomplish this aim, a
common block of courses will be given to all:
a) a review of the responsibilities of all major
Agency components, including collection, esti-
mative reporting, covert action, field station
activities, paramilitary action, communications,
administration of the Agency's resources, Agency
participation in the NSC. (This course lasts five
days, is given at and includes lec-
tures, discussions, and demonstrations)
b) an analysis of management problems encoun-
tered in the Agency and other Government organ-
izations (seven days, given a hrough
case studies, films, and lectures on such topics
as communication, leadership, human relations,
behaviour, and motivation).

West; the Sino - Soviet rift; the United Nations;
problems of underdeveloped countries--presented
by outside guest speakers and Agency officials
(two weeks, given at the new OTR headquarters
in the Broyhill Building, Arlington, Va.)..
Initially, 30 students will be enrolled in each course
on the basis of quotas established for each Directo-
rate. Each group will be made up of officers from
each of the Components; one of the greatest values
of the course is expected to be this meeting, talking,
and exchanging of viewpoints by officers representing
the different types of work done in the Agency.
The first "core" course will be given from 7 October
through 15 November 1963. The same course will
be given again starting 13 January, and again in the
Spring, starting 13 April. Registration will be han-
dled as for other OTR courses, i. e. , a Forrri 73
should be sent to the Registrar Staff for each candidate.

Senior in Foreign
Seminar Policy
Until Congress decides to establish a National Acad-
emy of Foreign Affairs, the Department of State's
Foreign Service Institute will probably continue to be
the closest thing to such an academy, with emphasis,
of course, on training Department of State personnel,
with considerable dependence on other insitutions to
furnish instruction not given at FSI, and with strong
emphasis on language and area courses.
Among the courses offered at FSI, the highest level
full-time training program in the field of foreign af-
fairs and foreign policy is the Senior Seminar in For-
eign Policy. This advanced course is an intensive
period of preparation for

aims of the Senior
provide the intellec-
tual framework for a free and vigorous inquiry into
some of the complexities of foreign affairs, and to stim-

and judgment.

The Senior Seminar in Foreign Policy is not conceiv-
ed of as a substitute for or in competition with the ad-
vanced courses given at the National War College and
at the other senior service colleges; in a way it is a
civilian counterpart of these schools. The State De-
partment uses the same criteria in selecting its own
students for the Senior Seminar as it does for its nomi-
nations to the various War Colleges.
The heart of the program is the three- to five-hour
Seminar meeting based on selected readings and re-
search and stimulated by the participation of outstand-
ing authorities in relevant fields. Seminar speakers
include judges, members of Congress, officials of
the federal and local governments, military leaders,
university professors, and experts from the fields of
business, labor, religion, arts, sci-
ence, and public affairs. Discussions,
SENIOR reading, documentary films, oral and
SEMINAR written reports, and book analyses are
supplemented by individual and group
attendance at meetings of professional
SENIOR and research organizations, visits to
SEMINAR the United Nations and to military and
industrial installations, and by domes-
tic and foreign travel to gain first-hand
knowledge of political, economic, and social problems
at home and abroad.
The Senior Seminar is a 10-month course. It is divid-
ed into seven sections which provide a review of Amer-
ican foreign relations; U. S. national goals and foreign
policy, and the domestic factors which bear on foreign
policy; the basic concepts and practices of international
relations and the United Nations Organization; commun-
ist theory and strategy; neutralism and the role of neu-
tral and neutralist nations; problems of subversive in-
surgency in underdeveloped areas; and the administra-
tion of U. S. foreign policy by the executive arm of the
government and the military, and the impact on it of
public and Congressional support or opposition. Each
participant in the Seminar prepares a major policy
study during the last weeks of the course. Field trips

during the Seminar.
In 1963-64, Seminar enrollment will be 26; usually
there is one participant each from CIA, USIA, Agri-
culture, Commerce, Defense, and the Treasury, and
one officer from each of the armed services; the bal-
ance are Foreign Service officers. The course was
designed primarily for the Foreign Service, but State

CIA has participated in the five previous Seminars, and
an Agency nominee has been accepted for the sixth
course, beginning this August; Agency participation is
based on a continuing review of the value of the course
to the Agency and to the individual. Nominations by

DEALING
WITH
EXECUTIVE
ROADBLOCKS
Editor's Note: This article by Stanley Schuler is con-
densed from NATION'S BUSINESS, February 1963. Al-
though it is directed to people in business or industry,
it is obviously applicable (and is presented here as
useful) to Agency employees on any level (except the
CPYRGHT
top).
Not just once but usually several times in the course
of his working life every executive runs up against a
roadblock that seems to threaten his career. Some-
times the obstacle is created by the man himself or
by his family. Sometimes it is raised by his com-
pany or by others in it. Sometimes it results from a
combination of faults and circumstances.
Whatever the cause, the experience is at best upsetting
and at worst shattering. Yet it is a normal experience,
usually beneficial in the end because it forces him to
clarify his thinking about himself, and it may make him
take a long-overdue action.
The first step is to analyze yourself and the situation.
What are your objectives? You can waste a lot of time
stewing about the roadblock if you don't know what you
want in your business life. Many men have no goal.

Some may admit this openly; countless others conceal
the fact even from themselves. In any case, when such
men hit a roadblock they are usually consciously or un-
consciously relieved, because they do not want to as-
sume additional responsibilities.
any other men do have a goal in life, but it is nebu-
lous. Such men know only that they'd like to wind up
in som' well-paying position in some good company in
some interesting industry. They are not definite about
which position, which company, or which industry. Be-
cause of this, they are often badly upset by roadblocks.
may be confused and
ineffective.
Their efforts to get around an obstacle
must know what will be expected of you, not only in
the position you are aiming for, but in the positions
leading up to it. In establishing an objective, you
must also reckon with the competition you will meet
to correct shortcomings. You

and face the fact that there are more candidates than
positions as you move toward the top. Above all, you
must anticipate the problems you will encounter and
be prepared to cope with them.
What is the nature of the roadblock?
Not everything that looks like a roadblock is one in
fact. The outlook may seem black when you don't get
a raise or as big a raise as you think you merit; when
the boss consistently walks by your desk without look-
ing at you; when you never can get in to see the boss;
when your ideas fall on deaf ears. The truth may be
that there is nothing at all wrong as far as you're con-
cerned. Perhaps the company is in a temporary pro-
fit squeeze and your raise is only delayed. Perhaps
the boss is so swamped by work that he can focus only
on his problems. Perhaps your ideas are not present-
ed at the right time or have gone on to a man who is
not capable of responding enthusiastically to anything.
Even usually reliable indicators of a roadblock may be
inaccurate. For instance, the fact that an associate
was promoted to a job you expected may not mean that
you have reached the end of the line. The company may
be holding you for a new and even bigger job you don't
know about. The fact that a man from outside is given
a better job than yours may mean only that you lack the
specific qualifications that job requires. The fact that
you are being relieved of some responsibilities may
mean that you are simply being freed for other work.
On the other hand, you should accept at face value such
obstacles as a permanently dwindling market for your
products; a superior who is only three years older than
you and is second in command; a power hungry associate
who plays politics better than you; employees who make
no bones about telling your superiors that they distrust
your motives.
If your roadblock is a fact, you must continue your
questioning:

What is the present position of the company?
How does it compare with competition? What
is the condition of the industry? What is.the
future of your department, company, industry?
What is your present job? U your employer has
prepared a complete job description, review
that. Otherwise make up your own description,
listing objectives and responsibilities.
Who is the competition within the company?
List all competitors. What are their strengths
and weaknesses? How do they compare with
you, and what are their Chances? What road-
blocks have they encountered?
What has been your progress to date? Has it
been marked by genuine accomplishment? What
routes have you traveled? Have you come along
rapidly? At the same pace as your associates?
Slowly?
What are your training, experience, outside
activities? Are you deficient in any area?
Could you stand broadening?
What are your personal qualifications? Analyz-
ing these is one of the hardest parts of your
soul-searching. Although an industrial psycho-
logist says that most men see themselves pretty
clearly, it is difficult not to overrate or under-
rate yourself. And the list of questions you
must answer is long:
1. Your personal qualifications--health.
vitality, principles and policies, appear-
ance, manners.
2. Your personal characteristics--adapta-
bility, perseverance, self-reliance, initia-
tive, loyalty, sense of humor, imagination,
enthusiasm. tact.
3. Your ability--to analyze keenly. speak
effectively, write clearly, originate ideas,
listen.
4. Your job--do you understand it, know
how to execute it, enjoy it? Are you ade-
quate in all ways? Are you on the right
track?

5. Your working habits- -punctuality, ac-
curacy, neatness, thoroughness, follow-
through.
6. Your motivation- -does your satisfaction
come from economic reward, personal recog-
nition, service to others?
7. Your executive potential--how do you
train others? Do you delegate authority? Are
you cost- and profit-minded? Do you organize
well? Are you a leader rather than a driver?
CPYRGHT
8. Your human relations--what do the people
you know and with whom you work think of you?
Are you friendly, cooperative, courteous? Do
you inspire confidence? Are people comfortable
with you? Do you value people?
If you are still uncertain, the next step is to talk to a
wise counselor. The counselor may be your wife, a
personal friend, a business friend, a former teacher,
or a guidance counselor. Sometimes you can talk with
a superior, but unless you know that he is a man who
deals with others sympathetically and objectively, this
may involve some risk.
If the answer is to seek a transfer to another depart-
ment, join another company, or go into business for
yourself, you should, like any man moving into a new
field, analyze the new organization or business.
Your answer may be to stay put. Perhaps your study
and consultations show that your roadblock is only
temporary and that, after a period of marking time,
you will start moving ahead again. On the other hand,
perhaps you must face the fact that you have finally
reached the limit of your abilities. You may be un-
happy and restive from time to time in the future; but
deep down you may feel some relief that your struggle
is over and that from now on you can do what you
know you can do as well as you can. Or your answer
may be to undertake a self-improvement program to
correct the personal faults and deficiencies that raised
the roadblock in the first place.

Ultimate Teaching Machine
A new aid to rapid--almost magical- -learning has
made its appearance. Indications are that if it catches
on, all the electronic gadgets will be so much junk.
The new device is known as Built-in Orderly Organized
Knowledge. The makers generally call it by its initials,
BOOK.
Many advantages are claimed over the old-style learn-
ing and teaching aide on which most people are brought
up nowadays. It has no wires, no electric circuits to
break down. No connection is needed to an electric
power point. It is made entirely without mechanical
parts to go wrong or need replacement.
Anyone can use BOOK, even children, and it fits com-
fortably into the hands. It can be conveniently used
sitting in an armchair by the fire.

How does this revolutionary, unbelievably easy inven-
tion work? Basically BOOK consists only of a large
number of paper sheets. These may run to hundreds
where BOOK covers a lengthy program of information..
Each sheet bears a number in sequence, so that the
sheets cannot be used in the wrong order. To make
it even easier for the user to keep the sheets in the
proper order they are held firmly in place by a spe-
cial locking device called a "binding. "
Each sheet of paper presents the user with an informa-
tion sequence in the form of symbols, which he absorbs
optically for automatic registration on the brain. When
one sheet has been assimilated a flick of the finger
turns it over and further information is found on the
other side. By using both sides of each sheet in this
way a great economy is effected, thus reducing both
the size and cost of BOOK. No buttons need to be press-
ed to move from one sheet to another, to open or close
BOOK, or to start it working.
cost, is the BOOKmark. This enables the user to pick
up his program where he left off on the previous learn-
ing session. BOOKmark is versatile and may be used
in any BOOK.
BOOK may be taken up
at any time and used by
merely opening it. In-
stantly it is ready for
use. Nothing has to be
connected up or switched
on. The user may turn
at will to any sheet, go-
ing backward or forward
as he pleases. A sheet
is providednear the be-
ginning as a location
finder for any required
information sequence.

vailable at trifling extra

The initial cost varies with the size and subject mat-
ter. Already a vast range of BOOKs is available,
covering every conceivable subject and adjusted to
different levels of aptitude. One BOOK, small enough
to be held in the hands, may contain an entire learn-
ing schedule. Once purchased, BOOK involves no
further cost; no batteries or wires are needed, since
the motive power, thanks to the ingenious device pat-
ented by the makers, is supplied by the brain of the
user.
BOOKs may be stored on handy shelves and for ease
of reference the program schedule is normally in-
dicated on the back of the binding.
Altogether the Built-in Orderly Organized Knowledge
seems to have great advantages with no drawbacks.
We predict a big future for it.

and instruction.. In particular, the 64-hour Technical
Training course and the 16-hour Instructor Training
course have been combined into a 40-hour PERT Man-
agement Information System Program. Substantive
content previously presented will be covered in the re-
vised program.

Sessions of the PERT Management Information Sys-
tem Program scheduled for the remainder of 1963 are:
9-13 September 1Z- 15 November
16-20 September 18-22 November
7-11 October 9-13 December
14-18 October 16-20 December
POTC continues to offer its PERT/PERT Cost Orien-
tation Programs for Industrial representatives (one
day session), for middle management in Government
(through GS-15 and comparable military rank)(8-hour
session) and for Government executives (GS- 15 and
above and comparable military rank)(3-hour sessions,
either morning or afternoon).
There is a government in-house requirement for in-
structors in PERT. The PERT Coordinating Group
is working on proposals for instructor development
to meet this requirement. The training will probably
include some kind of on-the-job training, possibly
intern-type teaching under the auspices of one of the
participating agencies.
RECORDS The National Archives and Records Service of General
MANAGEMENT Services Administration will conduct three Records
WORKSHOP Management Workshops this fail: 16-27 September, 21
October - 1 November and 2-13 December. The work-
shops will be held at the National Archives Building,
7th and Pennsylvania Avenue, N. W. , from 9: 00 a. m.
to 4: 30 p.m. daily. The two-week seminar is primarily
for records officers and management analysts who work
in the areas of records and paperwork management, but
administrative personnel who need a general orientation
in this subject may also apply. Priority will be given
to applicants in grades GS-9 and above.
