CHINESE GROWTH:
Bellah Traces Development
By BRIAN BEACH
The Communist system in China
is the functional equivalent to the
left wing of the Protestant Refor-
mation, Prof. Robert N. Bellah of
Harvard University emphasized in
a Wednesday colloquium co-spon-
sored by the sociology department
and the center for Chinese studies.
"The left wing of the Protestant
Reformation, characterized by
Calvinism and Puritanism, de-
veloped a kind of person who was
inclined to affect change in the
world," he said.
Similarly in an historical pro-
cess stretching over a century, the
traditional Confucian ethic, which
contrasted sharply with the Puri-
tan ethic, was replaced by the
Communist system, Prof. Bellah
continued.
Attack
"In the 1890's, Tan Ssu-tung
began to re-interpret the Confu-
cian ethic. He attacked the tra-
ditional three 'bonds' of ruler-
subject, father-son and husband-]
wife. Among the five traditional
relationships Tan Ssu-tung con-
sidered the. one between friends
best and the one between brothers
good because they were equalitar-
ian," Prof. Bellah said.
In the next stage Lu Hsun, char-
acterized Confucianism' in his
stories as an insane world in which
man eats man, Prof. Bellah added.'
"The positive conception of hu-
man action that these men held
was close to the Puritan concep-
tion." The Communist ethic rep-
resents the continuation of the
trends led by Tan Ssu-tung and
Lu Hsun," he said.
Commitment
Prof. Bellah claimed the Chinese
Communists required personal
commitment of its people to their
system, as did the left wing of the
Protestant Reformation. This con-
trasts with the Confucian ethic
which required an external com-
mitment.
Comparing the Protestant Ref-
ormation mandate that men "serve
the will of God" and the Com-
munist mandate that men work
"to better society," he noted that.
both ethics have an "open end
Across
Campus
The first project of the newly
inaugurated program of Children's
Theater productions is 'The Land
of the Dragon", directed by Mar-
garet McKerrow of the speech de-
partment. It will be presented at
10 a.m. and 1 p.m. today in True-
blood Aud.
This play is the first in a drama'
program designed for the children
*in the community. The series was
started by the University of Michi-
gan Players in coordination with
the Junior Theater of the Ann
Arbor Recreation Dept.
As part of the program the Uni-
versity speech department will
offer two courses especially de-
signed for training in children's
theater.'
This summer a course in chil-
drens theater will be available. In
the fall there 'will be 'another
course in creative drama.
The sponsoring organizations
plan to put on one production
written for a child audience each
semester.
They will be acted by adults
and be designed to appeal to an
age group from 4 to 12 year olds.

view of society as contrasted with
the static Confucian view.
Both systems developed a sense
of sin and personal inadequacy, he
continued.
Emphasizing that a unified fam-
ily structure is all important in
developing a kind of person who
will affect change in the world, he
sa:d, "I think the commune sys-
tem was designed to destroy the
traditional family structure in
hopes of establishing a conjugal
family system."
U.S. Education Faces
Challenge of AutomatioTn
(Continued from Page 1)
sending particular instructors out,
we can in some cases send their
recorded lectures."
Prof. Stanford Erickson, direc-
tor of the Center for Research on
Learning and Teaching, sees a
good future for another use of
automation - programmed learn-
ing.
Teaching Machines
"Several University courses at
present use programmed texts, but
the main future use of the pro-
gramming method could be in
t e a c h i n g machines," Erickson
said. "These machines use timed
programs and can serve as tutors
for individual students.
"There are many such machines
in use today, but at present more
experimentation and more money
is needed before they can be used
on a large scale."
Erickson foresees an eventual
wide use of "teaching carrels."
These are small units or stalls such
as those in the Undergraduate Lib-
rary and language labs.
Teaching Carrels
"In the future, carrels such as
these can be supplied with audio
input through recorded lectures,
visual input through television or
video tape and written verbal in-
put through 'teaching machines',"
Erickson said.
In this way the student could
stay in one place-possibly a car-
rel in his own room-and have
many of the advantages of text,
library and lecture at his finger-
tips, Erickson added.
He notes, however, that the
one most significant obstacle to
the use of carrels as well as other
forms of automation in the col-
Teges may be the university pro-
fessor himself.
sition from teachers. And so it has
ever since.
"Opposition arises because auto-
mation takes away some of the
functions of the teacher. It is nat-
ural that he opposes it, but it is
important to note that automa-
tion takes away from the teacher
only the repetitive, time-consum-
ing tasks of presentation of in-
formation.
"It does not hurt at all the most
important function of the teacher
--interpreting the information. By
printing books, taping lectures,
and using TV we can leave the
professor time for small seminar
classes and interpretation for in-
dividual students.
Free from Tedium
"In this light, it is best to think
of automation not as a money-
saver, but as a device to free the
professor from tedious tasks for
his most important duties."
Prof. Guy E. Swanson, chair-'
man of the department of sociol-
ogy, agrees with Erickson in sep-
arating presentation of informa-
tion from interpretation.
"When a teacher is interested
in presenting not only informa-
tion but also a point of view,
automation does not suffice as a
substitute for 'live teaching'," he
said. "For this reason, I would
not wish to use' widespread auto-
mation in o u r introductory
courses, where a basic point of
view toward societies, as opposed
to specific information, is being
transmitted.
"However, the use of automa-
tion does not 'shock' me. Closed
circuit TV, for example, has great'
potential in the University."
Prof. Arthur W. Bromage, chair-
man.of the department of political
science, sees a good future for
automated devices such as taped
lectures and television as a sup-
plement for regular courses.
"Taping of the lectures of 'stars'
in a field is a good idea for en-
richment of courses," he added.
"This method can have particular
advantage at smaller colleges,.
where the faculty is not as large
and varied as is the University's."
