DR. SENSENBAUGH: If all the fifty states
|
2
|
had the strong central system of education, the central
|
3
|
control that Maryland has, I don't think there would
|
4
|
be any of this argument about bypassing state govern-
|
5
|
ments; but, really, some of the state departments
|
6
|
across the country are rather pathetic.
|

|
MRS. FREEDLANDER : I just mentioned that
|
8
|
because I wondered whether any of you wanted to talk
|
9
|
about that, because I read it. Did you want to speak
|
10
|
on that?

DR. EARHART: No. I can only concur with
|
12
|
what he said.

|
DR. SENSENBAUGH: There are some very strong
|
14
|
departments of education. New York State is one of
|
15
|
the strongest and there are quite a few, maybe twenty
|
16
|
o£ them, in fairly good shape, possibly more. Half of
|
17
|
them, let's say, but them some of them are weak and I
|
18
|
am sure if I sat over in Washington and was thinking
|
19
|
about parsoning out the money to be administered
|
20
|
locally through the state departments of education,
|
21
|
you would want to put some pretty stringent controls
