Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Newsboy Service: A Study in Educational and Vocational Guidance The United States has entered definitely upon the policy of federal aid for vocational education. Even at a time of vast military expenditures, Congress has seen the wisdom of providing vocational training for the citizens of a world that is to be "made safe for democracy." With the passage of the Smith-Hughes Act in February of this year, the nation has resolved to do its part in seeing that American boys and girls have that maximum of opportunity for successful living which is the first duty of a free state. The $7,000,000 eventually to be made available as an annual appropriation from the federal government will mean the expenditure of many times this amount by the various states and by local communities. There will be 48 states, instead of 9, with state systems of vocational education, and every community, whether city or country, will be thinking, as never before, in terms of useful human service. The vocational education law provides specifically for investigation of occupational conditions in relation to education. One of the first duties of the federal board will be to learn what studies have already been made and what further investigations are needed. A significant example of the kind of study necessary is afforded in the report by Mrs. Reed for Seattle, published in this volume. There have been other studies of school and employment, especially for Eastern cities, and the street trades have come in for their share of attention.
