ADDRESS OF THE PRESIDENT EDUCATIONAL CONFERENCE THE WHITE HOUSE OCTOBER 4, 1944 There are many things which we have learned in this war. Among the most important are those which we have learned through our Selective Service system about the health and education of the youth of our nation. We have found that among those examined for selective service 42% can be classed as illiterate; and that 40% 9 of all registrants for selective service have not gone beyond an elementary school education. That is why this Conference on Rural Education assumes such great importance in our planning for the future. For while we plan for the welfare of our returning veterans first, and for the continued prosperity of our war workers, we must also lay plans for the peacetime establishment of our educational system on a better basis than we have ever known before.
