A presidential commission recently labeled America's incompetence in foreign languages äs nothing short of scandalous. Many Europeans look down on Americans and criticize Uncle Sam äs a bad linguist. Before rushing to uninformed judgments we should look at historical developments. Assurance of an unbiased viewpoint may bc found in the fact that I was borne and educated in Central Europe xvhere I lived for 26 years. After spending many years in Latin America I moved to California where I have resided since 1963, having traveled extensively.
