Mr. Ellis declared that. "the South pours its wealth into; the great industrial centers which it largely supports, educating one third of the entire nation's children, with one-sixth of the nation's school revenues. He spoke on the assigned subject of "Federal Participation In Education."

"In the 24 per cent of enrolled school children outside the South in high school; in the SoUth only 16 per cent are in high school.

The Southern States' sp.eiid more'of the income per capita for education than any other section. Arkansas alone spent last year $.12,023,809 on her schools!
