Author's Summary— Foreign language instruction is being attacked by the uninformed laymen, the advocate of social sciences, and the specialist in education. Of these, the most insidious is the education specialist. Language specialists must reaffirm their faith in the value of their subject and bear constantly in mind that worthwhile improvements can come only from within the profession itself.)
