We must educate our children
so that they can fulfill their obli-
cations as citizens of the city, state
and nation" said A. ]. Withers,
superintendent of the schools of the
city OF st. Louis, in pleading for sup
port for the national educational
plan now before congress, before a
meeting Of the good fellowship club
at the Chamber of Commerce yes
tefday noon.
This proposed legislation, known
as senate bill, 1887, provides for a
national appropriation of 100000
600 10 be apportiuned out to the
various states, provided each state
appropriates an amount equal to the
government appropriation.
Fight lIlliteracy.
This money is to be spent par
ticularly in eliminating illiteracy,
for Americanization work. for the
education of teachers. and equaliz-
ing education throughout the Coun-
try in general, he said.
I'VE are coming to realize that
we owe something to this nation,
and the nation owes something to
its citizens, and we need perhaps
more than anything else right at
this time, a system Of national edu-
cation" he said in explaining that he
did not believe our plan of leaving

Mr.. Withefs said that the great

on account Of its distance from the
seat of government, and its interest
in its own development. However,
he said, this great territory has at

will be a deciding factor in nations

pleaded for a solid approval of the
