This Conference, which is composed of educators and other public-spirited citizens from all sections of the country, as called to consider ways and means to solve unmet educational needs of the public school systems of the Nation. There is no gainsaying the fact that the Nation is suffering at this time from serious unmet,education. al needs which arise out of the cir cumstances' that the 'public school systems of the several states need 180,000 more teachers and 250,000 more classrooms than are presently available. As a result of these tragic shortages in teachers and classrooms, millions of the youth of America are being deprived of their -fundamental right to -an ade. quate education at the grade school lev.'l. - The tragic state of the public school system in the majority of the states carinot lie alleviated by any temporary measures. Since the number of children arriving at school age is constantly increasing, it is apparent that some action of a drastic nature must be taken if we are to have sufficient teachers and classrooms in our public school systems. Tlie White House Conference on Education is likely to recommend that the Federal Government assist the states in meeting these unmet educational needs. It is altogether likely that the vieWs of the Confer ence will coincide with those ex pressed by Senator Lyndon B. Johnson, the Majority Leader, who prophesied sometime ago that Con. gress will authorize "a school con struction program to meet the needs of their children". In my judgment, Senator John son acted wisely in suggesting that the Federal Government can best aid the states inHhis field by as sisting them in the construction of classrooms.

It does this by raking into tho Federal treasury an undue amount of income and excise taxes, which are the, most easily collected taxes. As the result of this fiscal policy, the state and the local com munities are compelled to rely in large part on property taxes for tho support of the public school sy sterns. If Congress is to pass a bill granting Federal aid to the public school systems of the several states, it must insert in the bill provisions depriving the Federal Government of all control over pub. lie school education in the several states and restricting the Federal aid granted to public school sys tems only. Moreover, Congress must refrain from any attempt to use the Federal aid granted as a vehicle for the enforcement of the decisions of the United States Su. prnio Court in the racial segrega tion field.
