- Typescript, Program, Notes: The Significance of Science in the Modern World, Annual Conference on the Direction and Improvement of Instruction and on Child Welfare, San Diego, California, October 8,
1950. LP stresses the point that for the modern man to live in the modern world, he must understand science enough to make
correct decisions about not only his personal rights but his political ones as well. Advertisers have exploited this lack
of knowledge between fact and fiction in science. Experience is the key to getting this knowledge about science. Science taught
in schools enables people to learn far than their own personal ambition of this knowledge. LP states that this is the only
way that the modern man will be able to live in the modern world. [Filed under LP Speeches: 1950s.21]
