Murphy, Spencer

Abstract:

Spencer comments on the state's insufficient standards of education and health for the children of North Carolina. In 1946, newborns were less likely to survive and their mothers more likely to die in childbirth than elsewhere in America. Education and recreational facilities were also lacking in the state when compared to national averages of the time. Blame is placed on lack of state government intervention to remedy these issues.
