The purpose of this book and the plan of treatment are set forth in Chapter I. The authors desire here to acknowledge their indebtedness to Dr. E. H. Reisner and Dr. I. L. Kandel of Teachers College, Columbia University, for their kindness in reading critically certain of the chapters dealing with the historical development of Federal aid to education, and to Miss Frances M. Burke, of the I ndiana, Pa., State Normal School, for her painstaking work in preparing the statistical tables. Paragraphs from an article contributed by one of the authors to The New Republic, December 13, 1919, form part of Chapter XVIII, and are reprinted with the permission of the publishers. Of the earlier works from which data have been taken in the construction of the tables, especial mention should be made of F. H. Swift s Permanent Public Common-S chool Funds (H enry Holt and Company) and E. P. Cubberley and E. C. Elliott s State and County School Administration (T he Macmillan Company).
