Progress and Decay

Progress: The Russian revolution took over
the gigantic problem of more than one hun
dred million illterates. Today only an infini-
tesmal fraction of the people canot read and
write School expenditures mount steadily each
year the only country in the world today where
this Is happening, by the way.
Decay: The boosted education Of every child
through the American public school system is
becoming horrible farce. The next school year
win see over three million children of grade
school age with no school open for them to at
tend Even more drastieaIy has higher eduea-
ton been pared. Additional millions cannot get
an education because they have no clothes to
wear to school, or not enough food in the house
to keep them well during the hours in the class
ROOM or because they must go out to earn a
few sweated pennies to keep the rest OF the
family alive.

The class of people who accept
Technocracy, hook, line, and sink

CHILDREN UNDER CAPITAL.
ISM, BY Grace Hutchins. SC.

In this '1and of liberty" the
children suffer more than any
other group for the damage done
to them through poor care is If
reparable. The great majority of
the 43 million American children
under Is years are workers child
rem. Hundreds of thousands of
these are eating out of garbage
pals, millions are deprived of ed
ucation, and millions more are
victims of child labor.
In working class families the
death rate of children is three
times as high as in upper class
families. Nearly 5 million school
children are out of school. About
Is million others are receiving
only meager schooling. In South
Carolina, as in other southern
states, one tenth as much is spent
per negro child for schooling as
for a white child. From 1920 to
1880 the same state increased its
child labor by % per cent.
About one-fifth of all child
workers work long, hard hours
at night. Thousands Of full time
child workers get as low as SO
a week. And in the sugar beet
fields, children grow up hardly
knowing the meaning of the
word school.
Among negroes conditions are
much worse. Pay is less, hours
are longer work is harder. The
death rate for negro children is
much higher than that for white
children.
Slow starvation of hundreds
OF thousands of children is TAX
ing place throughout the coun-
try. Since 1880 the number of
cases OF malnutrition in New
York City has increased by
more than one-third. In some
regions this serious undernour-
ishment victimizes more than
90 per cent of all children.
These conditions are in marked
contrast with those of the Soviet
Union, where even liberal re-
porters like Walter Duranty re-
port that in the Russian cities
the children are the healthiest
and happiest he has ever seen.
, For decades the American ruling
class have been protesting the
greatest interest in raising the
standards of child health; but
they have done it so slowly as to
prove to all clear-sighted work.
