; the House by Congressman Horac<
; Mann Towaer of low·, acd knows ai
ι Η. Β. 1, and la the Benate by Scnatoi
iioke Smith of Georgia, and known ai
; S. 10IT. establishes a Department ol
Education with a Secretary la Uu
President's Cabinet and authorise!
the appropriation o( 1190,000,000 b)
the Federal Government to enccurafi
the eta tea in tba promotion of educa
tion.
Of the $100,000,000 authorised U
be appropriated, $7,600,000 it for th«
removal of illiteracyj $7,000,000 foi
the Americanization of foreigners
$50,000,000 for tho partial payment
of toacber·' salaries and the promo
tion of public education generally,
particularly in rural communities;
$20,000,000 for the promotion of
phytical education, incladlng health
and eanitation; and $15.000,000 for
the training of teacHera.
The biU provide· that a elate must
furnlah an equal srsount for each of
the purposes natnrd in order to re
ceive lté «bar» of theae apportion
ment#. There ia a specific provie
ion "That all the educational facili
tiea cncouraged by tho provisions of
thin Act thai) be orvaniscxi, aupcrvis
ed and administered exrlasivrly by
the Ufrally ronstitsted (tate and local
educational authorities of the state."
All funds allotted to a stair must be
distributed and administered in ac
cordance with the laws of the state.
Under the provisions of the bill, state
sutonomy and local control of educa
tion arc most earcfully preserved.
What benefits will accrue from a
Department of Rducation with a
Secretary in the President's Cabinet?
In the flrst place, it doaa not mean
that tho Federal Government prop rises
to assume the control and adminis
tration of education. Such an at
tempt would bo clearly unconetite
tloaal. nor would It be for the best
internets of oar public schools. Tbe
schools must be kept in dose touch
with tbe people whom they serve and
be subject to their immediate saper
viaion and control. The Federal Gov
ernment can set up standards and
show why such standards should bo
accepted, but tbe authority of final
decision in all educatjoaal matters
mutt rcmaia in the statea where it
is placed by the Tenth Amendment
t to the dêôëtitiâtioa.

this new t^ait—I were issimei
also the Pension Oftse frees the W«

Theee seven Cabinet members wen

that there would be ne fnilhsi «Mi

latl tha Barean ef A«rtraltar· re

While the controversy over the aa

af the country urged tha ealabliah
rnent of » Dopastaseat of Ediatlo·,
Instating that education «aa af no

than agriculture. Although than
data* ware net luceeaafoUy refuted,
their petition waa not granted, ana

ta a subordinate boreau of the De

la tha light af this history it b
necessary only to show that education
is vitalHr related to national welfare
in order to justify its recognition aad
promotion by the e»tabli*hm<.rit of ·
©•pert· ont ο I Education with »
Secretary In lh· President'* Cabinet.
Thie ii ao evident that It would »e*m
hardly neccseary to offer argument*
in it* nippon. When ft vu found
that of the 2,400,000 dratU-d men
between the or* of 21 aed 31 aure
than 700,000 could not read and
write, the Federal Government eaa>
face to face with (duration u a
quaetien of the greatest national hn
portaneo.
When another 700,000 of thaïe
young awn had to be rejected from
military aerrice beeaaae of ohynK-al
defacte, «Met of which· cmU have
be«n prevented by preper tUeoUn
and' iastractioe ta youth, the import

aae wOl contend that our country M a
whole ta aot γ *■
lattoo. all of whom have hoe· admit
ted to oar iheret under natioakl
laws.
Bat there i* still a deeper signific
ance to public education from the'
•landpoint of national welfare. It
waa recognised by our forefathers
at the very beginning of eur govern
mrnt- The Ordinance of 17H7 tie
elareo that "Religion, morality and
knowledge being iKinary to free
government and the happiness ftf
mankind, erhoolo and tho mean* of
education ihall forever be encourag
ed.** It bvi b* co&ecdcd by all
that the security and perpetuity of
a government of the people la depend

If we an to develop a civilisation
which ahall eiand the severe teste of
the earning year*, the right kind of
education muet be promoted through
oat the ontirs aatuin. To give tha
greatest lmpeta* to a movement for
universal edueatioa if tho right sort,
there moat be the stimulating Influ
ence of a national purpeaa.
Λ question of m»cb transcending
importance, so vitally related te th·;
eoeurity and prosperity of our conn

national government and left entirely
to the elates and local communities.
National Idtal* cannot be realized by
eta tea and eommmnttlae unaldod by
natioaal encouragement and sapport.
There mast be the unifying Influence
of a natioaal Incentive that educa
tion may arrompUsh the greatest
good and make the largest contribu

Tbo Natioaal Government through
Ha Department of Education will ex

realisation of this end. It will stimu
