the idea of building home. He bought

it would seem that trainers of the con-

Of course, it might be said that the

State Cannot Legally Lend Money to
students to Obtain Education.

Greenwood Index-Journal.
Mr. c. C. Featherstone raises the
point that Governor Coopers pro-
posal to have the state Of South Caro-
lima make loans to deserving young
men and women to defray their col
1ege expenses, these loans to be re-
paid when the recipients complete
their education and get to work, is in
direct opposition to Article II, Section
nine to the state constitution.
The safe newspaper has referred to
this same section of the constitution
as an insuperable barrier to the gov
ernor's recommendation.
In commenting on the governors
message Wednesday, we referred to
this recommendation and stated that
we doubted thew isdom or practical
bility of so radical step.
Mr.. Featherstdne's statement with
regard to the constitutional issues in
volved make it clear that no such
thing can be done and that Governor
Cooper will so find it if the recon-
dation should be accepted and then
have to be passed upon by the courts
as it surely would have to. do.
We believe the constitutional inhi-
bition is wise. Even should we have
a constitutional convention to give
us a new constitution we believe
: this same Article II, section nine
should be included in it.
1t may be we'll to abolish all free
scholarships In state colleges and pro-
vide that tuition may be secured as a
loan to needy and deserving young
men and women, but to embark in the
business of lending the states money
to young men and young women to at
tend whatever college they prefer
would in our opinion bring about all
sorts of trouble.

have always thought that Cover
nor Cooper's suggestion as to a schol-
arship loan fund was good one-you
will recall that he advocated this il,
his campaign.
The trouble about it is that in all
probability such a loan would not
stand the test Of the constitution.

ton is as follows: s"The property or
