Sectional Problem Said Report In
Citing Statistics.

Washington.-The United States
was declared to rank ninth among the
nations OF the world in the general
educational level of its people, in a
report Of the house committee on edu.
cation, recommending passage Of the
Smith-Towner bill to establish fed
eral department OF education with fed
eral aid in increasing educational fac
ilities. The country is training be-
hind most of the civilized world"
the report said, from the standpoint
Of its educational advantages.
The proposed measure offers the
only means, the report declared, of
correcting the present inequality OF
educational opportunities among the
various communities and preventing
waste OF public funds and ineffciency
due to lack Of coordination among
federal agencies dealing with educa'
ton.
Illiteracy is a national and not a
sectional problem, the report said, in
citing statistics to show it was almost
equally prevalent in every section Of
the country.
There is nothing OF more import.
ance in our scheme of government
than the education of the people" ii
continued. Whatever else may be
left out education cannot safely be
excluded.

BACKWARD STEP
R. GOODWIN RHETT DELIVERS

HOUSING PROBLEM.
WOMEN SHOULD Be CONSULTED
Labor Saving Devices and Machinery
Are Just as Essential in Home
as They Are in Factory"

Washington.-Any construction pro
gram adopted to replace the existing
shortage of 100000 dwelling houses
must be drawn with due regard to its
effect on the permanent welfare OF
the country, r. Goodwin Rhett, OF
Charleston, S. c., said in an address
before the housing conference OF the
National Council Chamber OF Com
merce OF the United States,
I'VE cannot afford to countenance
or permit any backward step in the
standards Of living which have been
established, either by law or public
opinion" Mr.. Rhett declared, "for the
standard Of living of the great mass
OF the people is the surest index Of
progress.
Women should have say in the
type OF houses to be constructed, the
speaker thought, since the average
house is a "wOman's workshop"
Labor saving devices and machin'
cry are just as essential in the home
as In the factory" Mr.. Rhett said.
