There as the democratic principle of equhl educational opBut such an idea is* not of the South. However since education means so much for the country as a whole, it should be the duty of the- government to see to it that every section should be on an equal insofar as educational facilities are concerned. This, oi course, would mean the appropriation of many millions of dollars for the South to bring it up to the national standard but there should 3 between the races. America ?should have no?such i-xuenditurc for education as $44.31 for one paipil and only $12.57 for the other. There can be no justification of such on any decent theory.
