Nazism, Totalitarianism Warning To German Youth By ANNETTE von BROECKER BERLIN (Reuters)--West Ber- lin's school authorities are try- ing to warn children from the age of 10 upwards of the dan- wg of nazism and totalitarian- Karl-Heinz Evers, West Ber- lin's chief school officer, gave re- porters details of a new curricu- lum defining what teachers are to tell their pupils on subjects Banging from spartan youth ed- ucation in ancient Greece to slave labor in the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin, At school - leaving age, West Berlin youths should be well-in- formed not only about general history, he explained, adding that the aim is to get to the roots of false glorification of, or sym- pathy for, Adolf Hitler and his regime. "Youth has to be made aware," he said, *'of its respon- sibility towards the community and of the equal rights of all peo- ple. That calls for whole-hearted opposition of youth to Nazi ideo- logy and to any totalitarian sys-| tem which restricts the freedom of people." 10-YEAR-OLDS FIRST The new form of history lesson begins with the 10-year-olds in West Berlin's school system. They are to be told the biblical story of Herod and the killing of children at Bethlehem, and, sim- ultaneously, about the mass mur- der of Jewish children in Naz! concentration camps. During the following school years, detailed information is to be given the children on various aspects of the Hitler system. mostly in relation to similar, and earlier, events such as the per- secution of Christians and Jews by the Romans and the persecu- tion of Christians and Jews by the Nazi. 1t is then that the spartan edu- cation system will be compared with the ideals of education prop- agated by the Hitler-youth move- ment. Slavery will be explained from its ancient forms and on through the end of the feudal system to the slave workers' system used by Hitler in Ger- many and Stalin in the Soviet Union, Evers said. COLONIALISM TOO Colonialism also will be part of the history lessons. Hitler's ecolo-| nial policy in the conquered European countries will be ex- plained along with the end of European colomalism in Afro- Asian countries. India's inde- pendence in 1947 will be pre- sented, Evers said, together with the French policy in Algeria, apartheid (rcaial separation) in South "Africa and the continued existence of Soviet colonialism in Georgia, Kasakhstan and the Baltic states. In the top grade of the primary schools, pupils will be told about Hitler's racial laws, the pogroms.

Initials LONDON (Reuters) -- 8So- cially - conscious Britons have been given a new guide to social standing which could be even better than the right accent or the old school tie. It's "Hall's law," based on the average number of names pos- group. The more initials, the higher class. The author is Ron Hall, the tongue-in-cheek son of a Shel- field bricklayer, who says his Ilaw is "the only complete, scien- tific, quantitative, non - verbal, non-literary method of defining class." sessed by members of any given| Make Top Society Doing a little investigation, he found that a lengthy name is the universal possession of dukes and army officers and others among what the British call "top people." One prize example was a First World War army major called L.S.D.O.F.-F. Tollemache - Tolle- {mache de Orelano Plantagenet | Tollemache-Tollemache. | Hall's law, published in Cross- |bow magazine, states: "For any sufficiently large number of people, the average number of initials possessed by | members of that group is a dir- ect measure of the social class of that group." Hall says the 3,708 pages of Debrett's Peerage, the who's who of the British aristocracy, show that dukes average 4.00 in- itials, marquesses 3.96, earls 3.92, barons 3.53, baronets 3.49, viscounts 8.41 and knights 3.06. MERELY MILLIONAIRES This exactly follows the prece- dence of British titles -- except that viscounts are three places lower than they should be. The reason for this, Hall says, is that viscounts usually got their title only in this century and most them are merely millionaires. Hall says that on the basis of his research a mainly upper- class group has an "Initiant" of 3.30 upwards, an upper middle class 3.00 to 8.30, lower middle class 2.60 to 3.00 and working class 2.60 downwards. His theory puts the Anglican clergy at the top of the church list and the Conservatives first in the House of Commons. The navy heads the fighting forces, followed by the army and then the air force, Merchant bankers come higher than commercial bankers and both beat industrialists, Oxford and Cambridge University grad- uates are tied with initiants of 3.127 each. Isolation Rules B.C. Air Base LAKE, B.C. (CP) -- Puntzi Mountain U.S. Air Force base nestles on the side of a mountain which doesn't officially exist, and off-duty airmen go "downtown" to Williams Lake, a village 110 miles distant by road. The base is a split-level affair --a huddle of administration buildings and living quarters at 3,000 feet and, seven miles away and 1,500 feet higher, three ra- dar bubbles and a fourth under construction.
