Dr. Kirkconnellis Address On Totalitetiion Education Following is a continuation of the addrcu on Tuesday evening by Dr. Watson K " Presi- dent of Acadia University, in the annual series of Samuel N. Rob- ertson Memorial uctures at Prince of Wales College: A recent edition of a family magazine called Ogonlok ("Ligiit;" gives an enthusiastic place of honour to the soviet military schools. Its cover portrays a num- ber of youngsters around a can- non, whiie numerous pictures in the text represent uniformed small boys, eight years oi age and up, undergoing training in one of the Suvorov Military scir6ois. - It would be hard to cite any other contemporary nation that enrols boys of eight for a full-time military career. militaristic parallel, one has to think back to the worst days of Prussia or to the training or ado- lescent janissaries by the Turkish sultans. Valuable for understanding the basic principle of all this is an article in Pravda of November 28, 1948, by A. A. Voznssenski. the U. S.B.R. Minister for '” ” "The task of the Soviet school," he writes. "is to foster in the pu- pils a love for-our social and po- litical system which is iniinitely more perfect than all previous systems." An application of Marxism-Lem inism must be made to every subject on the school currlculurn: "The first commandment of a Soviet teacher demands that his leading maxim in education be the doctrine of Lenin and Stalin concerning the party spirit of sci- ence and ideology. This task can- not be carried out otherwise than in connection with the teaching of all subjects. I4 ' 'al and political education in the schools cannot be separated from the teaching of the elements of sci- ence. It is Just in the process oi studying these elements that the pupils learn to think in conform- ity with the views oi materialism and dialectics, that they acquire the outlook of Marx and Lenin and are -'ucated in the spirit of Communism." Or one may add the comment of Soviet Estonia's Minister of Education. A. Rand. in an address to a congress-of teachers on Aug- ust ID. 1948: "The sacred duty of the Soviet teacher is to be the engineer of the growing mind. to combat the efforts of the dregs of capitalism. political neutrality, ideological slackness, bourgeolsob- jectlvism, bourgeois Estonian na- tionalism. and religious relics to poison the minds oi our youth." In every aspect oi his work. the teacher must be not only a cham- pion of Commun' fighter against Western culture. He cannot iight for Communism without iighting against the West. Familiar Claim one should comment. in pass- ing. on the familiar claim that the Bolsheviks, instead of being guilty oi the nationalistic spirit of western nations have sought rath- er the tolerant cultivation of all the languages and cultures of Stalin's polyglot realm. That pic- ture may have had some validity thirty years ago. but it is obso- lete today. The more recent phase oi policy can only.be classed as Refrigeration s.u.r:s and SERVICE Repairs To All Makes MOTORS E Rewinding and Repairs V El.E(.'l'Rl0Al?4 QPPLIANCE llcpairs Palmer Electric PHONE 1444 Imperialism", with re- lentless pressure exerted to sum- ilate all minority peoples and cultures into a monolithic Russian (Communist) .

'-hit in nine out oi ilftesn evening col- leges, seven-year schools and mid- dle schools in Riga tuition will be wholly in ltuuian and that only four out oi the ilfteen will be purely Latvian. Similarly Comrade A. ltaud, Soviet lhtoniak minister oi edu- cation. writing in llahva ilssl (No. 201, 1949). insists that in Estonia students must be given more homework in Russian and made to read Russian books their spare t.lme'so that Russian may supplant the native Estonian as the language oi instruction. It is at the university level that education in free countries has achieved its most notable victor- las in ' and the arts. Total- but also a itarian'Con:uniinism. however. has auvsst network oi , throughout all soviet colleges. An illuminating article in this regard is one by S. Kaitanov, "To perfect the tcsching oi the doc- trines oi Marxism-Lsninism at the universities." printed in Bol- ahevlk (June 30,1949). the Journal of the Central Committee oi the All-Union Communist Party. In it we are informed that than are over 800 chairs for Marxism-i.cn- inism in the soviet colleges and universities. with a large number oi instructors associated with each chair. Marxism-lleninisrnjl it tr - 18 I r in all faculties. Stalin hirvnuli has decreed this in the following For a Wm” "There is one branch oi science. familiarity with which must be obligatory for the Bolsheviks prac- tising all other branches of Ici- ence. namely, the Marx-Lenin science of society. oi the laws of the developme t of society. oi the laws oi the development of pro- letarian revolution. oi the laws of the ' t of ' " t con- struction, oi the victory oi Com- munism. For a person cannot be considered a true Leninist, even if he calls himself a Leninist. if he has buried himself in his spec- lalty. buried himself, say in math- ematics, botany or chemistry and sees nothing except his specialty." (p. 22). Characteristic Excerpts Comrade Kaftanov goes on to outline the subject-matter on which the ubiqhitcus ... . of Marxism-Leninlsm will instruct their colleagues and their stu- dents: "The'st.ruggle between Cap- italism and Communism is gain-i ing in acuteness in the wholei world. This struggle is taking place in all sections of the ideo- logical front without any excep- tlon. The reactionary character of the bourgeoisie in the ilelds of politics, culture and science is es- pecially apparent in our when two camps have come into being: the imperialist antidemo- cratic camp, the leading power in which is the U.5.A.. and the camp of democracy and Socialism. headed by our great country.... The American imperialists, wh have adopted the Fascist gibber- ish on 'world domination. are the sworn enemies of the democ stir. aspirations of the peoples of the world and carry on a policy oi military expansion. of enslavement of weak countries." tp. 23h. In a world thus polarized be- tween the virtuous Soviets and the wicked Americans. the science of the Western world stinks of the same bourgeois corruption: "A deep ideological disintegration is experienced by ' ., ' 6ClellCE- Philosophers. economists and his- torians in the pay of tile bourg- eolsie make efforts to prove the perpetuity and stability of the capitalist regime. There is no ileld oi bourgeois science that is untouched by the withering in- fluence of capitalistic reaction. "Idealism. mysticism and clerlc- alism are widely diffused in con- temporary bourgeois science . . .the bourgeois scientists who work in the hold of theoretical physics and with them the bourgeois philoso- phers-thcse squires of imperial- ism-strive to interpret the new- est discoveries in the SP1?" 01 idealism and clerlcalism. The pages of the 'works' of bourgeois ideologists are mottled with men- dacious statements on the 'disaP- pearance of matter', on the 'un- reality of the world. on the" un- iathomableness of its laws (p. 28 university champions of Marxism-Leninisrn are therefore summoned to the following glori- ous task: "Daily to unmask the loathsome role of American im- perialism. thc strangler oi the culture and freedom of nations. the manger of a new war, the bastion of world reaction.

Ruthless Dynamic The Bolshevik article then em- phasises the ruthless dynamic that must animate the apostles of -' t orthodoxy: ,&y,iA SPECIALS "ms activity of the chairs of Marxism-ileninism transcends. of course. the iramewornof tuition as prescribed by the syllabus and the curricula. These chairs are chosen to be ilshtl Part-v col- lectives influencing the organiza- tion of all tuitional and educa- tional work at the institutes of higher education, and being im- pregnated with Bolshsvik intoler- ance of all manifestations of an gum, r ' ldsology...Ths Bolshsvik party spirit" of our soi- cncs means a direct. overt. 00!!- sistent defense of the interests of in the struggle against pseudo-science and those reaction- ary forces which are backing it." 24).
