- 10 - because these traditions are contrary to the materialistic Communist ideology— which destroys human freedom, dignity and individualism in favor of complete sub¬ servience to the regime.” The $0,000-watt transmitter directed at Hungary, which broadcasts at least twelve hours a day, seven days a week, is following the successful pattern of hard-hitting psychological warfare against the Kremlin waged by Radio Free Europe’s Munich sta¬ tion (to Czechoslovakia), made possible by the American people through their support of the Crusade for Freedom . The writers and broadcasters of programs are democratic Hungarian exiles who speak to their enslaved compatriots in their own idiom. BRITISH SCHOOLS PLAN VIDEO EDUCATION Plans are now being made by the BBC for education by television for a group of schools in Kent, Southern England. The first '’pilot' 1 program is expected to go out for a four-week period during next summer, so it is reported by the British Informa¬ tion Service. By the .fall of 19$2, a large number of Britain’s schools will be able to take the televised educational programs. It is estimated that by that time 80 per cent of the population will be within television range. There are more than 6,000,000 school children in Britain, so it is possible that more than I;,000,000 children will have a chance of video education, by next fall. The schools chosen for the experiment are comparable to American high schools. Each will receive, from 3:00-3:30 p.m. daily for a five day week, a program of instruc¬ tion either prepared in a EEC television studio or directly televised from some out¬ side scene. The subjects these programs will cover are listed as travel, science, current affairs, aesthetics and industry. In this small-scale test the entire costs will be borne by the British Broadcasting Corporation, but by the time the national test takes place - in the late autumn of next year - the schools will be expected to provide their own receivers.
