The intro- duction of compulsory, general 7-year education in rural areas lit the moat notable event of the new school year. Recurring press commute on textbook and teacher shortages, inadequate abhool space, and poor attendance in some localities are evidence that this new program is meeting difficulties. The press also stresses the importance of raising the ideological' level of instruction, of increased Russian- language instruction in non-Russian schools, and of decreasing the number of students repeating grades. General 7-rss docation -- This school year, by decree of the Soviet government, all children who have copleted the fourth grade mist enter the fifth grade. This introduction of compulsory, general 7-year education will swell attendance in Soviet schools. In recent years, acre. than 90 percent of the children completing primary (4-year) schools have entered 7-year schools. About half of the students finishing the 7-year course have entered secondary general and special educational institutions (1). This increment of students is being handled by opening fifth grades in primary schools (2), by opening additional fifth glades in 7-year schools, and by opening new 7-year schools (3). In Georgia, compulsory 8-year education is being introduced in the rural areas (4). General complete secondary education is being introduced in Armenian cities (5) so well as in other UBSI cities.

The decree points out the failure of this village soviet to ful- fill satisfactorily decrees issued last summer on the registration and full enrollment in schools of school-age children. Not only were all children of school age not registered, but only 1,266 of the 1,383 registered attended classes. The decree points to the failure tlf responsibility of the chAirman of the village soviet, kolkhoz chairmen, and secretaries of primary Party and Komsomol organizations in this matter. In an article commenting on the decree, II itel'ska Oazeta stated that many other executive committees of soviets have underevaluatad the importance of general education. It continued with the following rbservations: Local soviet organs as well as people's education organs are fully responsible for carrying out general education. Successful general education is the result of enormous mass-political work carried out by Party and soviet organizations and by schools. An important cause of poor attendance is the lack of propa- ganda and explanatory work directed toward parents. The Council of Ministers Uzbek SSB and the TeK(b) Uzbekistan have called on kolkhoz managements and Shortage of teachers, schools, and textbooks -- At a meeting of the collegihm of the Ministry of Education RNSR, it was reported that new 7-year schools in the gF ec have not been manned with adequate teaching staffer For example, 70 new 7-year schools opened this year in Kaluga Oblast. They are short 29 Russian- language teachers, 37 mathematics teachers, and others (7). Daring the 1948-49 school year, many Kazakh schools operated with two or three shifts of students. A decree of the TeX EP(b) of Kazakhstan calls for the elimination of third shifts and for a minimim of second shifts this year (8). At the same time, a Moscow secondary school is forced to hold 50 classes in only 22 classrooms because of a shortage of school space (9). The plan for the 1949-50 school year calla for the printing of 170 million new textbooks for Soviet schools. By 10 September, 96.5 percent of three books had been printed and 92.2 percent delivered to book trade organizations (10). However, many schools have had to begin classes without receiving textbooks. Murry reports received by the editors of Uchitel'ekasn Onseta and articles in local newanapers snack of the unsatisfactory delivery of textbooks to schools. Many book trade organizations and people's education sections display exceptional sluggishness and bad administration in this matter. While textbooks are clearly lacking in Lvov schools, these books have appeared in the city's markets at increased prices. About 70,000 textbooks were being hoarded in the warehouses of the Poltava Oblast section of people's education at tAe time the new school year began. There are many similar cases of poor organization (11). As the result of decrees on ideological questions issued by the TsK VIF(b), many courses and textbooks, particularly on biology, have been revised. And as Kazakhstanaks a Pravda points out, the reorganization of the teaching of biology on the basis of AlLchnrin science points the way for the reorganization of other subjects (12). The following article published in Uchitel'skara Qezeta demonstrates that the 1949 publication of textbooks has not been sufficient to replace all textbooks not following the new Party line and points out the resulting difficulties: The Ministry of Education BSrSR explains that along with textbooks published in 1949, textbooks published in proceeding years should be used, with the excep- tion of textbooks on botany, zoology, human anatomy and physiology, and principles of Darwinism. When textbooks of several different editicue are used in a school, `EGRET Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/09/19: CIA-RDP80-00809A000600270287-4 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/09/19: CIA-RDP80-00809A000600270287-4 it is recommended that only one edition be used in a given class. In the event that there are yeveral editions of a textbook in a class, the teacher, in assigning homework, must indicate exactly to the students where they can find the necessary information. Instructions on which earlier editions of textbooks can be used are given in the list of textbooks for primary: 7-year, and secondary schools which was distributed to ministries of education of autonomous republics, and to kray, oblast, and city sections of people's education (13). Russian-language instruction hold inadequate -- The teaching of the Russian language in non-Russian areas is being increasingly stressed. An Instruction of the Seventeenth Congress of the AP(h) Azerbaydzhan stated that "for us, the Soviet peoples, the Russian langua ;-~ ... is the native language of our multi- million, multinational Soviet family" (1h). In relation to this, it is interest- ing to note that Russian will be taught from the second grade in Armenian and Azerbaydshanian schools in Armenia for the firEt tiros thi, year (15). However, several reports criticize the quality of Russian-language instruc- tipn. At a Kazakh republic conference on people's education, it was noted that Russian is poorly taught in many Kazakh schools. It was stated that special faculties for training Russian-language teachers should be established in teachers' Institutes (15). A. S. Raud, Minister of Education, Estonian SSt, issued an order on improving the teaching of Russian in Estonian schools, The main shortcomings there are poorly trained teachers and poor textbooks. Sumner courses will be held for Russian-language teachers to improve their qualifications (17). Instruc- tion of Russian in Kirgiz schools has also been criticized (18). Information from the Soviet press gives school attendance figured for all republics, except Tadzhikistan and Turkmenistan, and for some mayor cities and oblests. It should be noted here that the term "school" (shkola), refers to primary (4-year), 7-year, and secondary (l0-year) schools. Attendance at specialized secondary educational institutions (tekhnikums) and higher educational institutions is not included in these school attendance figures unless otherwise noted. USSR USt -- More than 36 million persona are attending USSR schools, specialized secondary educational institutions, and higher educational institutions this school yaar.(19). Of this number, almost 34 million children and teen-agars are attending primary. 7-year, and secondary schools. Almoet.1,500,000 teachers will instruct them (20). RSBSt -- A total of 18,470,000 students, including 2 million for the first time, are beginning classes today in RS'St schools. The number of students attending the fifth to the seventh grades has increased by 2 million over last year (21).

In Moscow, 613,000 children, including 54,000 first-graders are attending the 550 ?choolc In the capital city, This is almost 20,0010 more than last winter. There are also about 50,000 youths attending the 139 young workers' schools in Moscow (23). The enrollment in Leningrad City schools is 340,000, including 11,000 first-graders (24), while 165,000 students are attending schools in Leningrad Oblast (25). Kuybyshev City and Oblast schools have an enrollment of mare than 300,000 students this school year (26). _ .Z Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/09/19: CIA-RDP80-00809A000600270287-4 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/09/19: CIA-RDP80-00809A000600270287-4 The development of people's education in. the Tuva Autonomous Oblast was begun in 1944 when Tuva was annexed by the USSR.

Soviet press comments stressed the Importance of continuiig purges of professors and courses not following Party decrees on Ideological questions, and of strengthening Party control over the activities of universities. Particular attention was also paid to the opening of new higher educational institutions and to expansion of established facilities. Editorial comments on higher schools -- According to Uchitel'shasa CkmLta, important work was carried out during the last school year in a2.1 Soviet higher educational institutions on improving the quality of science instruction on the basis of Leninist-Marxist methodology. The paper goes on to say: "The decrees of the Ts% VEP(b) on ideological questions and the August session of the All- Union Academy of Agricultural Sciences Imeni Lenin aided in Improving the scientific-theoretical operation of higher educational institutions in all fields of knowledge...... Eowsver, not all has been done so far. The positions von moat be secured. The unity of theory and practice must not only be talked about, but actually carried out in universities and institutes" (52). In an interview with Pravda Ukrainy, S. M. Bakhalo, chief of the Adminis- tration for Higher School Affairs, Council of Ministers Ukrainian Sffi2, stated: "Party decrees on ideological questions have played an enormous role in the life of Ukrainian higher educational institutions. They helped to improve aignificantly the teaching of philosophy, history, literature, arts, and biology. Higher educational institutions were purged of infiltrating hangers-or of bourgeois pseudoscience -- Weisman-*rgenists, cosmopolites, and bearers of the survivals of Ukrainian bourgeois nationalism. Departments of many higher educational Institutions have been strengthened by young scientists who stand fast on the position of Marxist-Leninist science" (53). know how to and do not want to reconsider their pseudoscientific idealistic theories, says this article. CouLrol over the quality of instructinn and over the content of lectures will be strengthened this year, it concludes (54). - 6 - ~ECREl` SE(RBT Mire etrigent Party control over education is also indicated in an article In Sovetska a Latviaa.

The article remarks that after the liberation of Estonia, the directors of Tartu University re`,:ained the university's progressive professors and teachers. Hundreds of new students, children of laborers, have entered the university, swelling its enrollment to 3,000. The university's Party organization is fight- ing to liberate the university intelligentsia from survivals of the past and to aid them in acquiring a Marxist-Ioninist world-outlook. Tb+ Party organization has established a program for this purpose. Study programs on Marxist-Leninist theory have been set up for the teach- ing staff, Pravda continues. "On the Initiative of the Party organizatior}, biology lectures are now conducted on the basis of Michux'in's teaching. It is particularly important that students, in hearing lectures, know physics, biology, literature, and art in the light of the teaching of Merx, lhug61e, Lenin, and Stalin..... A conference held by the Party organization pointed out that many old teachers have been freed from idealistic viewpoints and have purified their lectures of reactionary bourgeois teaching. In the new school year, the Party organization must greatly strengthen the instruction of the teaching staff on the facts of the fight against survivals of the past, disinterest in politics, bourgeois objectivity, and grovelling before the author ty of science,.... The Party organization is also striving for greater influence over the work of Komsomol organizations, sport groups, and student scientific societies" (55). According to Pravda Ukraine, the idoological-political education of students on the great ideas of Leninism must be the center of attraction of every higher educational institution, its workers, and Party and Mmusomcl organizations. The science of Marxism-Leninism is necessary to every specialist and field of know- ledge. The chair of Marxism-Leninism has a special role in improving teaching in general in higher educational institutions. It is necessary to improve the quality of work of these chairs, to make them leaders in all higher ed'.lcational institutions, and with the aid of Party organizations, to improve the selection, training, and retraining of teachers of Marxist-Leninist principles (56). K. Galkin, chief of the Graduate Studies Section, Ministry of Higher Educa- tion USSR, states in an article in TTchitel'ak ya Gazeta that during the 1949-50 school year, higher educational institutes and scientific research institutes must admit many more graduate students than last'year. Applicants for graduate studies should be considered not only on the basis of general readiness and capability to conduct scientific work, but also on their ideological-political preparation (57). Note higherschool attendance new schools -- A. M. Samnrin, Vice-Minister of Higher. Education and Corresponding Mjmber of the Acades- of Sciences USSR, stated in an interview with Moslcov kiy Bcrosomolets that 197,000 now students are entering the 830 USSR universities and institutes ti''s year. Of these new students, 20,000 have been awarded gold and silver medaea. A total of 750,000 students, 165,000 more than in 1941, are now attending Soviet higher educational institutions (58).

These institutes will train teachers of Russian language and literature, physics, aetheetics, natural sciences, and geography for the fifth to seeenth grades of 7-year and secondary schools. The opening of the new pedagogical educational institutions will basically solve the problem of teaching staffs to carry out general 7-year education (66). A pedagogical institute is opening in Rostroma (67) and teachers' institutes t for the first time, in Southern Sakhalin and Dorn-Altar Autonomous Oblast (68). Teachers' institutes have also been opened in Bobruysk, Liyepaya, and Soroki in the Moldavian SSR (69).

The newly organized forestry-engineering institute in ilharkev will train engineers in mechanization of logging and specialists in timber transport (72?. Not only have new institutes been established but dozens of new faculties and chairs have been opened in older higher educational institutions. New agrcmcaU chairs have been created in Moscow, Leningrad, and in the majority of other universities (73). The Leningrad Pedagogical Institute imeni A. I. Qertsen and the Thabarcvsk Medical Institute have opened special departments for students from national regions and okruge of the Par North (74). L 1. Trud, No 206, 1 Sep 49 2.
