Benge Informs Club Of Vietnam Progress Dedicated service to the Viet namese people will continue to call Mike Benfie back to his work centered in Darlak Prov ince aa loner as he is needed. This was made apparent in a most interestinR and informa tive talk to members of the Sor optimist club by the Ruest speaker at its luncheon meet ing Thursday noon, November 16. Bence, introduced by his sis ter, Mrs. Matt (Joan) Hughes, broURht his listeners up to date on the accomplishments and in ternal changes which he has seen in Vietnam since his last visit before the club two years ago. "Our program (through Agen cy of International Develop ment) is making excellent prog ress," he said, "but it is a long range program and will need 10 to 20 years to fully develop it." He spoke of many prob lems which must be overcome, but the main one is the general lack of education. "The only real and lasting way to devel op the future is to educate and gain the confidence of the young people," he said. Bonge administers over the Darlak Province, largest in Viet nam, equal in size to an aver age state, with estimated pop ulation of 202,000 persons.

After a census, they "root out" the hard core Vietcong, elect their governing body, and build up their own leadership within the hamlet, through improving education, health, social welfare and agri culture, tying in all areas of de velopment which are not involv ed in actual war. Their security is supported by the military. The average hamlet teacher has had only an equivalent to a 5th grade education level, ana progress is being made in con solidating the schools among the hamlets. The country is really in a "pioneering" stage, much the same as was our own country before it was developed. There has been excellent prog ress made In the last two years, but there is still a long way to go. Our main obiectlve is "want- ine to eive them a freedom of choice, which they would never have if the cancerous growtn oi Communism was allowed to spread. We are now paying a high premium on this insurance policy," he emphasized in his closing remarks. Benge left by plane on Sun day, November 19, for Wash ington, D.
