animals with slimy tentacles lived on people,s bodies. The people tolerated the loathsome creatures because after many years they grew into elephants which
then became the nation,s system of transport, carrying everyone wherever he wanted to go. Harold suddenly realised that he himself was covered with these
things, and he woke up screaming. In a vivid sequence of pictures this dream dramatised for Harold what he had never been able to put in to words; he saw

their gross ignorance of one another should be diminished, that they should begin to understand a little of one another,s historical experience and

that the time devoted to actual work is negligible. The problem is the standard which the leadership in administration sets for the staff. Forgot the
