More than half of the coun try's 10 million inhabitants can do neither, and war has been declared against illiter acy. The 168,000 new students comprise only about three per cent of the nation's illiterates. But their schooling represents a spectacular victory over awesome obstacles: language difficulties, rugged terrain, variable climate, and even hostile savages. Opens Campaign President Manuel Prado opened the campaign against illiteracy a year and a half ago. He began a program to be carried out over a period of several years. It was fairly easy to set up schools along the Pacific coast. The "students" there at least speak Spanish and are accustomed to civilized life. But in the Andes mountains the task is a challenge. The Indians there still speak Que chua, the language of the old Inca Empire. Many chew the coca leaf, a narcotic. Poverty is commonplace. The jungles of eastern Peru, however, provide the supreme test for teachers brave and dedicated enough to meet it. "Pupils"' there are stone-age Indians who speak a wide va riety of tribal tongues. Murder is not unusual among some tribes and witch doctors are held in reverence. Instead of spit balls a jungle teacher may have to dodge poison darts. Teams of eduetten flirt penetrated the jungle, exper imented with teaching pro. cesses in local languages and I studied the results. From these a standard, simple easy teach ing system is being devised. Dr. Luis A. Lopez, head of 'the program, said more than 8,700 teachers are workine in I 6,487 sectors of the country.
