B. hnson notified Chairman Homer S. immings of their action by teleaph. We shall have a greater state and greater nation when we have , eater concepts of public education; t len all the children of all the people not a neigborhood problem, not a Eite problem; it is a national oblems. Voluntary work, parochial I I ? A 1 ? I nuuis and private scnoois are some- | lies excellent, but they cannot acmplish the result. The Smith-Tower bill, which has ien introduced in Congress and is >w in committee in both senate and use, should be adopted at the next ssion. Immediate relief is necesry. The bill provides for a department education with a cabinet officer its head and federal asistance to ucation in the several states as folws: 1. For the removal of illiteracy 2. For the Americanization of imi grants. JI. For equalizing educational op rtunities. 4. For physical and health educajn. % 5. For better and more teacher epa ration. No one who knows conditions as ey exist in portions of our couny today can doubt the wisdom of is proposed law. The coining of e war was not altogether bad. The tuntry was astoundd by the facts 'ought to light by the war draft, i the nation as a whole 7 per cent the drafted men were illiterate, i our own state Hi per cent, of them mid not write their own names; men ho could not read bulletins- th,. istcd orders of the day?were ar sted for disobedience and humiuted. Many brave boys failed of romolion because of a lack of hooling. If the matter were left i a vote of ex-soldiers they would I'liiand universul education. There ive been several instances in my ty of returned soldier;- bringing teir truant brothers to school. In the disgraceful riot on Arinisee Day in Centralis, Wash., when ie I. W. W's shot into a parade of ^.-soldiers and killed four of their umber, the enraged citizens tried to rnch the murderers. The soldiers, tmpanions of the murdered men, rrested the snipers, pievented the] inciting, and insisted upon having ie law to take its course. This ; us the result of their training. I The Smith-Tower bill olFers a logram of education which provides niversal training, not for military rvice only but for general service. ur safest statesmen, as well as our est military leaders are opposed to a irge standing army. But all are adocates of a comprehensive training ur general service which will got men <r military service when needed. The biggest factor in cotton growig today is public education. The deartment of agriculture issued last ear 125 bulletins on the subject f cotton growing. Sixty percent, of no cotton growers were unable to i!ad comprehensively those bulletins. 'CI. l> . I- L- 1 - 1 111- .TIUUI IIMS UL'fll lOO lonfc 1151111ered t?y tradition s?nd superstition. , iisis been said that this bill, if it lould become a law, would interfere ith state rights. Politicians who are litrer to tret federal rroney to destroy ie rattle lick anil the boll weevil,who a not hesitate to ask for appropriaons to make "Hush Creek" navitrale, think they see very trrsive dantrr in aci'eptintr federal aid to educate leir children. An Illinois politician who heard ie discussintr the Smith-Tower bill sked me what state I was from, /hen I said South Carolina he held p his hands and exralimed "State trhts. Aren't you trointr back on the achintr of yorr fathers?" My reply as; "My fJither owned slaves, rode i .a toy, sent messatres by a netrro oy, litrhted his house with candles, nd drank brandy to keep off malaa. To tro back further, my ttr,'?d randfather wiis pesident of an iridi ? society. Times have chantred since j len." My father was a secessionist, lie rtainly had an arguable ritrht to s position then. Hut after events j lowed that the defenders of the Minn stooil mi linnii' ? -I i- 1 * "' I' lu mi* conditions had changed and/ e nation had become more cometely one nation. State rights has a i HVrent meaning from what it had xly years ago. "The moral force I the world then were against slavy." The moral forces of the world day are against ignorance slavery tradition, liemiKucy is against il ercy. No state has the right to per it citizens of the United Sates to ow up in ignorance within its bords. Some counties in South Carolina ink they have that right. We have fought for democracy. iiw let us educate it. If we are to ve democracy in government, we ust have democracy in education. FRANK KVANS. In Winthrop Weekly News, f ghtning Strike* C. H.
