Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from School Laws: Enacted by the Legislature of Alabama, 1915
All these laws are of importance and three represent the climax of activities on the part of all the educational forces of the State covering a period of more than thirty years - local taxation, better administration and super vision of schools, and compulsory attendance. All the measures have been worked out with care and delibera tion and in such a way as to make them all parts of one related scheme.
It is my firm conviction that they will bear the closest scrutiny and that no man can give them intelligent con sideration without arriving at the conclusion that Ala bama now has upon her statute-books as sane and as con structive educational machinery as is possible under our present Constitution.
There will always be differences of opinion about the wisdom of any law, and I do not expect any exception in the case of these measures, but I am fully persuaded that the fair-minded person will be willing to exercise the suspended judgment until the test of experience may justify final conclusions.
