Gov. O'ConOr
Speaker AT
Burg P-TA
Outlines Expansion OF
Education Program To
Group OF Two Hundred

In a speech before the GaltnerS-
burg Parent Teacher Association
on Monday evening, Governor
Herbert R. O'Conor briefly re-
viewed the progress of education
in Maryland in the last thirty
years, with special emphasis on
the action taken during the last
session of the Legislature. The
meeting was held in the Gathers
burg High School Gymnasium,
with Mrs. Herman Wilson, presi-
dent of the association, presiding.
Among the distinguished guests
present were leaders in education
and politics in the County.
Governor OiConor stated that
during the last World War, 1917
10, $3,900,000 was allotted for ed
ucation. In 1929, $7,6OO,OOO was
appropriated, and in 1878, $12,-
100000 was allotted, However,
during the last session of the Leg
isture, $23,S5O,OOO was set aside
for education. He stated that the
goal has not yet been reached.
In regard to his attendance at
the meetings of the State Con-
gress of Parents and Teachers
held in Annapolis last, month, the
Governor said it was ian educa-
ton in education"
Progress in education will de-
velop along several lines in the
coming years. The newly formed
Youth Service Commission will
start a study early in January on
Juvenile delinquency. Vocational
education will be stressed and
special attention will be given to
the care of the feebieminded.
The Governor further stated
that the returned veterans, who
will make up 1/9 of the population
of the state, will be given every
opportunity to either complete
their high school education, or to
continue their studies in colleges
or other educational institutions.
He said that the veterans are
coming back with a greater res
pect for education than they had
before they left home.
Special emphasizes will be laid on
health in the coming years. Mary
lands system of giving medical
care to INDECENT citizens is unique
and is being watched by other
states with much interest.
The newly formed Division of
Library Extension will bring libr-
airy benefits into all communities.
Money allotted for education,
in my estimation, should not be
considered an expenditure, but
rather, as capital, because. of the
dividends shown in our educated
youth" further stated the Cover
nor. In conclusion he said, "The
America Of tomorrow is what we
help our young people make it."
Following the meeting, Cover
nor OiConor came down onto the
floor and greeted many of his old
friends, and also shook hands with
many of the parents and teachers
present. He showed a particular
interest in the plans for the pro-
posed Recreation Center for Gath
ersburg and the vicinity.

Arrangements for the convention

National Income Down.
The drop in national income pro-
duced in the United States from the
record high peak of $14,698, 900, 900
last October to $12,754,000 in
February was halted in March by a
slight upturn to $12,956, 900 900, ac-
cording to Alexander Hamilton In
stitute. The national income in
March, however, was not quite as
large as in the same month last year
when it amounted to $4,000, 900 900.
The national income in the first
quarter also was smaller than a year
ago, declining to S36,672 10000 this
year from $50 9,179, 100000 last year.
Present indications are, said the re-
view, that the national income in
the second quarter of 1945 will be
approximately the same as in the
first quarter. Expansion should oc-
cur in the third quarter, however,
the institute predicted.
