- Description:
- The document is a letter from W. Rankin Young, Superintendent of Schools in Cleveland, Oklahoma, to George B. Schwabe, a United States Representative, advocating for Senate Bill 181 which provides Federal Aid for education. Young argues that Federal support is necessary to equalize educational opportunities across the country and addresses concerns about Federal control and religious objections. He also highlights the urgent need for increased funds for education due to teacher shortages and lack of interest in the teaching profession. Young urges Schwabe to support the bill and take a bold stand in favor of Federal Aid for education.
