Abstract
Recent events have brought the problems of mathematics instruction to the attention of the American public. In so far as the public is concerned, this has been a post-Sputnik development; however, many were aware that our mathematics program was in need of repair prior to Sputnik I. One need only recall the existence of committees and commissions appointed prior to Sputnik I to document pre-Sputnik awareness of the need to examine carefully the mathematics programs in our schools and colleges.Keywords
