He believes this move foar more universal education the greatest in this direction the State has ever known and thinks it will result in great good. He has re eently been converted to compulsory e(ucation. he said. though he was op posed to it until only a short while ago, and believes it must be resorted to if the negro is not to surpass the poor whi-te child in education. He expressed himself as being unquali iedly opposed to State aid for schools and b believing that every coity should take eare of its own education al system. though he admit ted this to be an unpopular view of the situa tion in South Carolina now. He gave as his reasons the fact that some counties, especially those in the lower part of the State, have an over whelming majority of negro children and in dividing out the State appro p.riation these would .all have to be given a pro rata amount, though it might, if t.he officials saw fit, be used for the education of the few white ehildren.
