abstract="Because of our democratic repugnance to war, World War II, like all our other wars, finds the nation and its schools unprepared and inept in converting &quot;business as usual&quot; and &quot;education as usual&quot; to the production of the kind of men and materials required for a world-wide total war. In the schools conversion takes the forms of &quot;dilution&quot; and &quot;acceleration.&quot; These terms express a frame of mind which looks to a &quot;return to normalcy&quot; when the war is won. But the record of the past as well as predicaments of the present points to the necessity of rethinking our entire conception of the education of free men with respect to the theory and practice of war.<p />",
