The Removal Of Illlteracy.
The flrst selective draft showed tha.
there were 100000 illlterates between
II and 81 years OF age In this country.
That fact stunned US, but there was
nothing new In It. The census OF 1910
informed US that there were more than
five and one-half million illiterates Of
10 years Of age and over in this coun-
try. II showed us that one out OF every
i3 persons OF 10 years Of age and over
was an illiteratel
Delaware had. IN 1910. 9,s70 such init
crates. The Congressional allotment
would be si9,6s07S annually. This
would have to be equaled by the state,
and there would then be available $780,,
36i 56 each year. or almost si.0O for each
illiterate.
II the State should start a 10 year
program for the removal Of illlteracy,
and il II should each year teach one
tenth of its illlterates, there would be
available $40 TO teach each illiterate to
read and write. This plan would elm
mate illiteracy from the state within
40 years.
Americanization of Immigrants.
Our population has been made up
largely Of immigrants In 1910, there
We're in the United States l3,5i5.ss per-
sons OF foreign birth out OF total pop
ulation of 9ig72 266; or, roughly speak
ing, every seventh person OF the en-
tire population was born in foreign
land.
Delaware has 1892 immigrants ac-
cording TO the census of 1910. The Con-
Pressional allotment would amount to
970o.06. The amount available for
Amerlcanization work in the State
would be Si9,t6i2 annually.
The reasons why the nation should
cooperate with the states in an Amer
icanization program are:
4. Foreigners are admitted to the
country under national law
?. They are privileged 60 participate
freely IN a Democratic government.
3. Their contribution TO national well
fare is in proportion to the training in
Americanization afforded them.
4. The permanency Of a competent
democracy rests on the intelligence and
patriotism Of its citizenry.
Equalization Opportunities.
The per capita wealth is very uneven
in the different States. In North Caro-
lima IL is S126.35. In Nevada IL is Si.-
1876 35 For the country as whole, II
is Si,i72.77
Delaware has i06a teachers and would
receive from Congress sS5,32i.0s. An
equal amount by the State for these
purposes would make available si70.-
GAP sc for the purposes mentioned in
the bill
The bill provides that no State shall
share in this fund unless IL has at least
2i weeks Of school iD each district un-
less Il enforces an adequate compul-
sorry school attendance law. and unless

instruction in the common school
