The great need for FEEDER;
financial assistance to education
has been termed as urgent due
to the low economic levels in
some states which prevent them
from spending much money on
education.
Although opponents of federal
assistance have consistently cit
ed the argument that the idea is
new and radical it has been
pointed out that 1870 measures
have been passed by Congress
since 1902 aiding education.
Statisticians in arguing the
cause of Federal assistance state
that there are 10 million litter
ates in the country today and
that $50 men of draft age have
been rejected due to education
deficiencies.
Since some of the poorer
states do not have the financial
reserve to sponsor an efficient
education program the only way
the children in those states can
be given an equal opportunity is
through federal subsidies.
To show why, perhaps, some
of the less wealthy states supply
lower educational facilities, let
us consider the per capita in
come payments of some of them.
Connecticut leads the list with
'S1A52; then follow California,
S1429; New York, S1340; Michi-
gan is ninth with $3.50, and at
the bottom of the heap we find
Alabama with $CO3, South Caro-
lima, $576, Arkansas, $512, and
Mississippi, $484.
