Mr. SHarvER. This gentleman from Western Massachusetts points out that in his town or area. the proportion of Portuguesespeaking people. which was substantial before. has increased greatly because of immigration. and very few of these people can speak English and this is a real problem and what can be done about it? The truth is we run what we call an adult education program. we ourselves do. and the HEW runs a very much larger one. Your school system should be able to get an adultbased education grant out of HEW for precisely those people. and they should be able with that money to get instruction for those people in your area.
