ICPI - Compulsory schooling has been ordered by the Canadian Army for the first time in its history. Beginning next month. any sold- lcr who doesnt know his tlirce Rs must learn them as part of his regular training, Aim of the program is to raisc the minimum educational level of the army to grade elllll--The high school on- trance standard. Army niit.-horltics said that the order, dated July 2'l.had been con- templated "for a long. long time." They added that no inference slmuld be drawn from the data of issue that it constitutes a response to i-eccnl. criticism of army educa- tional siaiidards. Admitting that present standards are lower than before the Korean war began or before the Second world War. senior officers insist- ed that this is not reflected in the "high” efficiency of today's units. either at. home or abroad. Thc army order said the training program would be divided into JACK Mumzrii 1 "i. The compulsory training of any soldier of the active force who is below the grade eight level. The attainment of grade eight standard will permit a soldier to perform his duty satisfactorily as a private soldier. apt-cialisi or tiadesiiiaii, land. in addition. will prepare him lfor the more advanced courses. "2.

ConipuLsnr,v educational training is designed primarily for the sold- llerls c.wn benefit, is gpougn-,.,n '1-aid. He. added, however. that the lmore educated men the army can 'get. the hotter. In a recent three-month survey. the average educational standard of Canadian Army recruits was found to be between seventh and eighth grade.
