That gap has been narrowed
considerably In the last 10
years. More money is spent on
education, more children are
going to school for longer Pc
RODS Of time. and more re-
search is taking place South Of
the Mason-Dixon Line than
ever before.
Since 1850 Southern univer-
stiles have granted more doc
tor Of philosophy degrees than
they did during their entire
previous history. And more uni
versities are granting them:
95 per cent Of the Ph.D.'S
granted in the South prior to
1850 came from IS institutions
Of higher learning. During the
last nine years. Is additional
universities have introduced
studies leading to the Pho. de-
gree.
Cultural Revival Seen
A survey Of Southern educa-
ton by the North American
Newspaper Alliance indicates
that the next decade will see
an even greater growth in
schools and colleges in that
section. It is no exaggeration
to say that a cultural revival
is taking place.
However, some Southern ed
ucatorS warn that the fight
over Indignation may disrupt
the upward trend. Any more
Little Rocks could bring about
a setback for both Negro and
white school programs.
This is the way DR.. Frank R.
Stewart, State superintendent
OF education in Alabama, put
it:
1.-THE South has made the
greatest improvement in the
United States in equalizing ed
ucational opportunity for all
children except where hindered
by outside interference and the
judicial decision reversal on
separate but equal schools"

"The development of inter-

The Southern Regional Edu-

various States depend.

BaSically, the SREB serves as
a cooperating agency among

example. Florida, which has nc

dental students to other States
in the South where such schools
exist. Both the student and the

SPOTLIGHT ON EDUCATION
South, Despite Indignation,
Making Education Gains

Explaining the major pur-
pose Of the Southern Regional
Education Board, DR.. Robert
C. Anderson. It's director, said
that a "help-each- other-do-it
program has been introduced.
rather than a do-it-yourself
program. The board helps
States and institutions do what
each can do best. and then
share their facilities.
Members Of the SREB are
Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware,
Florida, Georgia, Kentucky,
Louisiana, Maryland, Missis-
sippi, North Carolina, Okla
homa, South Carolina, Ten
nessee, Texas, Virginia and
West Virginia.
The percentage Of the total
State expenditures for public
school education in the South
has increased steadily during
the last Is years. In 1912 the
Southern States spent 20.2 per
cent Of their total income for
public schools. BY 1858 this
had increased to 1858 per cent,
At the same time, the United
States as a whole spent 1915
per cent in 1912 and 21.3 per
cent in 1858.
In terms Of actual dollars
the amount spent for educa-
ton in the South also has
jumped significantly. In 1856
the South spent $548,810,O00 to
operate its public schools. BY
1878 this had reached
50, 080, 460, 900.
Spending More Per Pupil
Each Of the Southern States
more than doubled the per-
pupil expenditure in the last
dozen years. In 1856, for
example, Virginia spent $92.32
for each pupil, by 1867 it had
increased to $217.0l. Missis-
sippi jumped from $46.31 tc
$751;. SO during this same period
The South spent 300 per cent
more for higher education in
1856 than it did in 1916. On q
per capita basis the support
increased from $1.54 per person
to $5.15 during this period.
For nearly a century educa-
ton in the South was generally
below that found elsewhere in
the land. Few public high
schools were accredited, and
the colleges were Stunned by
those who wanted quality edu-
cation.
Fortunately, that is now rap.
