Tennessee's Dilemma

Krutch, Joseph Wood | July 22, 1925 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on various socio-political developments related to Tennessee. Doubtless Tennessee is in a condition not much worse than that of the majority of the States in the Union. Her folly consists chiefly in the fact that she has allowed the situation to get out of hand by her cowardly refusal to deal with it as it arose. Neither she nor ally other State has been able adequately to educate her citizens, and for that fact she is not to blame, since the task is beyond her financial or other strength. But when people cannot be educated they must be led, and it is in leadership that Tennessee has failed.
