Gilfillan, dean of science at Oregon State College and Acad emy secretary. Citizenship Depends Upon Many Factors, According To Report Whether or not a child grows up lo be a good citizen depends on a lot more than how thoroughly he is taught the Declaration of lndelend ence. It's his relationships with other people, his daily environment, the kinds of satisfactions he achieves, that make what he studies about democracy really count. This is Ihe consensus of experts as inter, preled in a 120-page report re leased recently. Just how complex is this business of developing democralic values and how much responsionity ne- longs to the public schools is de- conies from families of the profes tailed in the study, titled Children's Isional and managerial group who Social Learning: Implications of use words in their work.") , Research and Expert Study.

The book was prepared as a guide lo teachers and other who are seeking better ways to help children acquire democratic valu es. So far, according to the intro duction, unsupported opinion on this subject has been far more available than actual findings of study and research. N Factor Important One factor found to make for cood social learning is learning to use Ihe tools of communication reading, writing, speaking com- pelenlly and intelligently. Here the school has an obvious respon - sihility. But, the report adds, all i the "social learnings which mark Ihe good citizen are also the re sponsibility of the school. Some examples: Learning respect and confidence in oneself and others, concern for Ihe common welfare, common loyalties, recognition of likenesses and differences, integra tion of differences to make a bet ter pattern for all, respect for uniqueness, and In general, bearing good feeling for oneself and oth ers. An individual who has learned Ihese values, says the study, not j only trusts himself, his rights and. leelings. nut also trusts mners, their rights and feelings. "For him Ihe general welfare so supersedes , selfish interests that he finds it in- ( Inlrrahle to seek his happiness at the expense of others.'
