al of S~331,157,842 expended for public

Higher Education:

The go n.gner institutions had
plants and equipment valued at $50,
869,578 in 1882 The 33 public sup
ported schools were valued at $29,578,-
901, representing an increase of ap-
proxtmately 400 per cent during the
past fifteen years.
The Omaha guide., 1934-05-19
Conclusion

From the information contained in
this report it is apparent that the
Southern States are not able TO pro-
vide public education for all child
rem on an equal basis with the other
sections Of the country. If the chill
dren of the South are to have the ed
cational advantages available to other
children Of the nation, special fin
ancial support for public schools must
be provided. However, any Federal
funds which are or may be mad
available for public education in the
South should be SO distributed as TO
guarantee there will be no discrimina-
ton in the use of such funds be-
tween the children Of different races.
Furthermore, such funds should be SO
used and distributed as to correct the
glaring inequalities which exist at
present in the expenditures Of school
funds between the RAGS.
