Excerpt from Federal Aid to Public Schools It was in 1821 that the dissatisfaction of the original States with this policy came to a climax. Under the leadership of Maryland, the demand for school land grants for the original States became a burning issue. Connecticut, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Vir ginia lent their support to Maryland's efforts, but in vain. Their cause speedily became a lost cause.2 The next notable event occurred in 1841, when Congress passed an act providing for the distribution among the States and Territories of the net proceeds of the sales of public lands after the payment to the States of certain sums (per centum grants) to which the States were severally entitled. This act, however, remained in force less than one year, and the question of a general policy of Federal aid to public schools was allowed to slumber.3 The smith-towner bill, introduced into the United States Senate on August 10, 1918, renewed the issue. This bill, as is well known, failed of passage but was followed by the Towner Sterling bill. Whether the policies embodied in these two bills will ever be incorporated into Federal law or not, it is obvious that there is need of a concise account of just what aid the Federal Government has thus far provided for public schools. The present monograph has been prepared with a view to presenting such statement. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
