The tax rate was higher in 1952.
They imagined thr day when un
derstanding would dtspel ignorance
and bring harmony betweeu peo
ple and nations.
So they set to work. Seven of
the nation's major educational as
sociations banded together to form
the Joint Council on Educational
Television.
The Ford Foundation set up a
fund for adult education and
climbed on the bandwagon. In less
than four years the foundation has
contributed eight million dollars to
educational TV.
Civic groups became Interested.
So did industrialists, businessmen
and state legislators. They teamed
with sciTo. church and cultural
leaders and began forming local
commissions and co-operatives.
At first the work moved alowly,
painfully slowly. Even today there
are many who despair of the fu
ture of educational TV because of
a seeming lack of Interest among
millions of Americans.
Miss Hennock nays any lack ot
interest Is the result of lack of
information. "Wherever the public
is informed, ' she says, "it alway
home to nk queMtons ot the TV
teacher." But he noted too: "The
impact of tmmediacv, see.n? tnr

There have been damaging

badly hurt by an adverse report
