Abstract:
In 1935, the state educated as many high school students as it supported inmates across the state. These statistics caused debate amongst state politicians on how to correct this situation. The State Superintendent of Public Instruction in North Carolina presents an argument that better training and education in citizenship would create a more responsible population less likely to be imprisoned.
