Need of More Coun-
try Schools Shown

Washington, Dec. 1. Capital
News Service).-Speaking of the
Sons of the Revolution, DR.. J. W.
Crabtree, secretary of the National
Education Association, brought out
facts regarding illiteracy in the
United States which emphasize the
need for more and better public
schools, and which endorse the re-
suits Of the election in Oregon. in
which new school laws were pass
ed, compelling attendance in state
public schools.
''The United States has the high
est percentage of illiteracy of the
leading enlightened nations Of the
world" said DR.. J. w. Crabtree.
eff you multiply Germany's per-
centage Of illiteracy by 80. you
will have the figure showing the
percentage of illiteracy in the
United States. Improvement and
increase in the number Of country
schools is the first step necessary
to remedy this defect. Under the
present system the country child
is four times more likely to be IL
literate than the city child DR..
Crabtree also pointed out that ito
American ize the foreign-born is as
necessary as to do away with il
literacy."
