In 1936 the General Assembly created a "Commission on Higher
Education for Negroes" and appropriated $10,000 to provide pro-
fessional and other scholarships for Negroes who could not obtain
the desired courses at Morgan or Princess Anne Colleges. In 1937
a "Commission on Scholarships for Negroes" was created and the
sum of $30..000 was appropriated for the same purpose. In 1939 the
General Assembly reduced this grant to $25,000 and transferred its
administration to the Board of Trustees of Morgan State College.
This grant was repeated in 1941, 1943, and 1945.
