WIDE DIFFERENCE IN ABILITY TO
SUPPORT SCHOOLS AMONG STATES
IS FOUND BY SURVEY JUST MADE

in other words, make the same ef-
fort to support their schools, the
poorest district can raise only $500
per capita pei child enrolled, while
the richest can raise $34.60 per
capita. In order to raise as much
money per capita the poorest dis
trict would need to levy more than
seven times the rate necessary in
the richest district.
Inequalities Between City
and Country
Comparisons showing inequality
Of opportunity between rural and
city children are also striking.
Generally speaking, cities pay high
er school tax, better salaries, have
better buildings and equipment.
and spend more per child on edu-
cation than rural districts. This APP
plies to practically every state in
the union. In one state, studied ~
the Bureau Of Education, compari-
sons We're made between 16 city
districts and the same number Of
rural districts located in the same
counties. While all of the city dis
LIlCIS pay Il SptCldl ldA levy lOt
school support varying from ap-
proXimately 3 to approximately 10
mills and averaging about 5 mills,
so per cent of the rural districts
made no special levy whatever for
the support of their schools and
the highest made by any one was
z mills. These data indicate that
rural districts in this state. at least,
were not doing their share in the
way OF levying taxes, In this case
the inequality referred to was due
in part to a lack of effort on the
party Of the rural people to main
tain as good schools as those in the
city. In tho other cases cited,
where district valuations are so low
that only $5 can be raised even
with a l.igh rate Of taxation the in
equality is, of course, due to the
inability on the part OF the country
people to support good schools

OF Education, Washington.
Albuquerque morning journal., 1922-11-26

Measured by per capita valuation
there is a wide difference in abil-
ity to support schools among states,
among counties within states, and
| among districts within a county. a
corresponding variation in school
opportunity may or may not (but
usually does) follow.
In order to discover the relation
ship, if any, which existed between
tax valuation and school attendance
in counties within a state, a study
was made by the Bureau of Educa-
tion of nine counties in one state.
in group A were included the three
counties standing highest in tho
state with respect to assessed val
uation per child enumerated; in
group B, the three counties stand
ing lowest on the basis of this COM
putatiou; and in group G, the three
constituting the middle group. 1t
was found that in group a, 90 out
Of every 100 children were enrolled
in school; in group c, &C out of
every 1907; and in group 3, only 6l
out of every 100 were in school
Even after enrolled, the children
in the poorest counties did not at
tend as regularly as those in the
wealthiest. The average length Of
school term varied all the way
from ga months in a county in
group A t. 3.S months in a county
in group B. In other words, the
schools in the poorest counties
(meusured by per capita tax valua-
atom are open on an average u
months less than the schools in the
wealthiest.
The child living in the best coun-
ty in group A was given an educa-
tion which cost on an average $50
per year, whereas the child living
in the poorest county in group Is
was given an education which cost
/ So per year, The amount of money
invested in school property for ev-
cry child amounted to S151 in the
richest county and $11 In the poor
est county.
Causes of These inequalities
While inequalities in wealth per
child are inequalities in ability to
provide schools, inequalities in the
rate of district taxation represent
. inequalities in effort TO support
schools. In the mine counties re-
/ ferred to the valuation varies from

at random, and the following com;
parisons are made between the
richest and the poorest districts OF

valuation per child enrolled in the
richest district Is $2,53S-in the

Verde Central Is Approaching Most
 Interesting Stage

Exploratory work at the Verde Gen. tral property. Jerome, Ariz., has
 reached very interesting stage. At the meeting os Calumet & Arizona di- rectors, held in Chicago last week, spec.mens from the mine were eXhib- ited that had recently been taken from work now in progress. These were rich in copper, and assays are now being made of them at the Michigan College of Mines, Houghton. On the 601 drift, crosscuts No. 616 and GIT at the present end of this drift en- countered quartz chalcocite, chalco- pyrite and iron sulphide. On the sos the breast of the drift was making water so freely that holes were blocked pending the installation of pump to care for the extra flow. This is probably working by this time and the task of opening this promising ground will be continued. The show ing of the last two weeks are the best thus far made at the property and lneds the hope that something good is near at hand. Calumet & Arizona Mining Company is conducting the ex- plorations at this property.-Iron Ore.
