« I KK E OF EDUCATION—Senator Elbert Thomas (D), Utah, has a strong argument for federal aid to education Thomas says that in the past the well-to-do have paid in lives for "neglect of education." He explains "Selective Service rejections in World War II Education were five out of 10 for the country as a wh^le . However, in areas where education facilities were good, seven men out of every 10 were accepted. Drof* Where education facilities were poor, only three out of 10 were accepted. "Thus, the burden of service rested on certain groups of families. Because they neglected education, the wealthy paid the bill—sometimes with the lives of their children.” Thomas says that federal aid io education would be a big step . forward ui aUeniyU.tu "uvei'-iotoie. this artuatioik."
