Table 301. — Variables: Beta X schooling. Group IV: Colored draft, South. 

 For men who took beta only, or alpha and beta only. 



[Vol. XV, 



From these 22 fundamental tables are derived all others in this chapter, except such as 

 are designated as coming from special camp reports. 



Our first interest is to know what were the actual conditions found in regard to the schooling 

 of the Arm} 7 . How many years has an officer been to school ? How many years has a recruit 

 been to school? What per cent graduate from eighth grade; enter high school; enter college; 

 graduate? What can we readily infer about elimination from school in this country? Study 

 of tables 302 to, 325 and figures 24 to 49 will answer many of these questions concerning 

 officers, native born and foreign white recruits, and northern and southern negro recruits.
