PREFACE

The material presented in the School Leaders Manual is meant for limited
circulation at least for the present The idea of preparing the manual emerged
gradually and resulted from the efforts of the staff of the Education Panel to
formulate clearly its tasks and to devise effective ways and means of achieving
desired outcomes
The manual is in four partsi 1 Introduction to Educational Planning and
Development in Georgia 2 Planning the Program of the School 3 Planning the
Program of County and Local School Administration and 4 Basic Data Needed in
Educational Plaining The size of the finished manual suggested the desirability
of binding each part separately The leader in making preparation for initiating
a program of educational planning should have copies of the four parts
The primary purpose of the manual is to provide suggestions for leaders in
carrying on educational planning on the county and local levels It also con
tains some information which will be helpful in working with planning groups An
examination of Parts II and III will reveal however that it does not contain a
blue print of an educational program for any county or community It does contain
a detailed outline of appropriate procedures to use in getting groups of profession
al and lay people to do their own planning
Members of the field staff of the Education Panel will use the manual as a
guide in the twelve to sixteen selected counties It is expected that its use
in these spot counties will give a basis for further revision and refinement of
procedures It is hoped that in its revised form the manual may be of value to
principals and other educational leaders in carrying on local planning and develop
mental programs
The manual was developed by the staff of the Education Panel in cooperation
with several groups and individuals Those giving considerable assistance to the
staff werei

1 The members of the Workshop of School Leaders held at the University of
Georgia during the summer of 1944
The membership of the workshop was made up largely of principals and teachers
from the sixteen selected counties This group worked with the staff for a period
of approximately six weeks in developing a point of view and procedures to be used
in county and local planning
2 The supervisory staff of the State Department of Education worked hand in
hand with the panel staff during the workshop period and certain members of this
staff have given advice and assistance throughout the process of writing the manual
3 The staff of the University of Georgia assisted during the workshop period
and certain individuals have been called upon to make specific contributions to the
development of this publication
Many others have assisted either directly or indirectly The State Health
Department the Panel on Business and Commerce and the Public Works Panel of the
Agricultural and Industrial Development Board along with many writers in the field
of education The Panel staff has endeavored to give due credit to authorities in
education where they have drawn upon them for information in published form

Data Based on Heard County Georgia

tINTRODUCTION
It should not be difficult to justify the use of basic factual data in
educational planning The very concept of planning presumes that critical
reflective thinking will be brought to bear on the projected solution of
present or anticipated problems Access to and use of comprehensive and
accurate factual data are absolute prerequisites to successful planning
Such data are necessary in isolating and clarifying the problems which
need solution Basic pertinent data are equally needed in projecting
proposed solutions to the problems discovered and in testing the validity
of the proposed solutions
It is recognized that the various tables and the related textual comment
which comprise Part IV of the Manual do not include all of the basic data
needed in educational planning It is believed however that all of the
types of data presented in this section will be valuable when properly
analyzed and interpreted in locating and solving significant educational
problems in a given locality An alert leader will recognize the limitations
of the kinds of data presented here and will know when where and how to
secure needed supplementary information
In preparing this section of the Manual the Panel staff has considered it
to be particularly appropriate to place special emphasis on the types of
data obtainable from the 1944 School Census schedules It is hoped that
not only the key counties selected for special study but also nil other
counties in Georgia may be encouraged to utilize the School Census data
in educational planning at the local level Particularly in the key counties
it is proposed to supplement the School Census data with information from
other sources e Federal Census reports State Department of Public
Welfare State Department of Public Health etc
As examples of the kinds of data which the research staff of the Education
Panel will be able to furnish for each of the key counties Part IV of the
Manual presents a series of tables giving detailed objective information
about various types of conditions in Heard County Georgia Most of these
tables are based on the 1944 School Census of Georgia although considerable
use also has been made of Federal Census reports and other sources As a
matter of policy the textual comment on the tabular materials has been Brief
and restrained It is felt that local professional and lay groups under the
guidance of the leader should determine for themselves the significance of
the data for educational planning in that locality Interpretations and re
sulting action programs derived in this manner should have maximal local ac
ceptance and lead to maximal developmental improvements
If and when the field staff in its cooperative work with local professional
and ly groups finds a need for types of data not included in Part IV of the
Manual a decision should be made concerning the best ways and means of secu
ring the needed supplementary information Whenever such a procedure is
feasible local groups should be encouraged to collect analyze and interpret
these supplementary data If however the needed data are of such a nature
that the research staff of the Education Panel can best provide it such ac
tion will be taken
Before attempting extensive planning on any point represented in the Manual
the leader should analyze the possibilities of the data represented in Part IV
and secure the most complete information that can be furnished For example
if the leader is developing planning procedures on The Age Groups To Be
2 LoReached by the School he should study Tables I II III and IV in order
to determine both the age distribution of the present population and what
the trends may indicate as a probable future distribution A knowledge of
these facts will enable the leader to aid in planning in several areast
l The building and equipment facilities which will be needed 2 the
personnel of various types which will be required and 3 the kind of program
which may be developed to care for the needs of all age groups to be reached
In a similar manner the basic statistical data should be considered in re
lation to each other unit which may be chosen for development by the local
groups Clearly it would not be practical nor even desirable to indicate
in the Manual gll f the ways in which each of the various kinds of data
could be used In the planning process there is no satisfactory substitute
for local initiative and ingenuity in every type of planning activity
Perhaps an additional comment should be made concerning the tentativeness of
the material in Part IV It is recognized that for some local planning groups
the types of data illustrated in this section may be seriously lacking in scope
and in richness of detail On the other hand there well may be other local
Planning proups that would wish less comprehensive data or information pre
sented in a simpler or otherwise different form To the extent possible we
shall make adaptations in the scope and the form of materials in keeping with
locally sensed planning needs
As would be expected in a rough experimental tryout of a procedure which
Part IV clearly is there are variations from standard form in the nomen
clature and format of tables etc which would not appear in a finished
document meant for general circulation If in its present tentative and un
finished form the material in Part IV in a restricted circulation is found
useful in stimulating critical thinking concerning the types and uses of basic
data needed in educational planning by local groups it will have served well
its initial purposeCHAPTER XVI
BASIC DATA NEEDED IN EDUCATIONAL PLANNING ILLUSTRATED
BY DATA BASED ON HEARD COUNTY GEORGIA
Unless he has already done so the reader is requested to examine the
Introduction to Part IV of the Manual before reading the brief textual
comment accompanying the tables dealing with the Heard County data The
tables as well as the accompanying comments have been roughly grouped
under the following major headings l General Characteristics includ
ing age population trends mobility etc 2 Education 3 Occupations
4 Value of Resources and Income Housing 6 Health and Welfare and
7 Selected Characteristics of Households
The critical reader perhaps will infer that the characteristics of Heard
County as herein presented are those of a typically rural county in Georgia
It is highly probable that analyses of similar data for other counties will
reveal a different pattern of characteristics
To prevent confusion on the part of the statistically critical reader a brief
comment should be made concerning the methods used in computing the first
quartiles medians and third quartiles for certain of the data dealing with
year intervals For example in computing the first quartile and median in
column 2 of Table VI the year interval 09 years was broken down by separate
years since it was found that the 773 cases were not uniformly distributed
throughout the nineyear interval but tended to pile up at the lower end
of the distribution Obviously the first quartile obtained by the method
employed is more accurate than would have been obtained on the assumption
of a uniform distribution throughout the entire interval
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
A distribution of selected population groups 1944 Considering the total
population of Heard County Tables I and II the median age for whites is
248 years and the median age for Negroes is 188 years For heads of house
holds the median age for whites is 414 years and for Negroes is 469 years
The corresponding median age for mates of heads of households are as followst
whites 443 years Negroes 387 years For persons in the household other
than heads and mates the median ages by race and sex are as follows white
males 137 years white fcoales 173 years Negro males 111 years Negro
females 126 years It is interesting to note that the median ages of chil
dren away from the parental home is approximately four years greater among
whites of both sexes than among Negroes
Age distribution of persons under ten years of age There are no significant
race of sex differences in the age distribution of persons under ten years of
age in Heard County Georgia 1944 All the distributions are slightly shew
ed the median ages in all cases falling above five years Table III
Population trends by race disregarding age From 1910 to 1920 there was
a slight increase in the general population among white persons of both sexes
Table IV At each of the three census periods since 1920 whites of both
sexes have shown an appreciable or marked decline in population the most
notable decrease occurring from 1940 to 1944 The number of white males and
females in 1944 was roughly onethird less than in 1910 Among Negroes of
both sexes there has been a marked and generally consistent decline in popu
lation during the 34year period the periods of most rapid decline being 5
from 1920 to 1930 and from 1940 to 1944 The Negro male population has de
clined nore rapidly than did the Negro female population There were nearly
twice as many Negroes in Heard County in 1910 as in 1944
Population trends by age groups The data in Table V indicate that among
whites of each age category below thirty years there is a marked decline in
population from 1930 to 1940 and from 1940 to 1944 The rate of decline is
most rapid for persons under five years of age For the age group above 30
years there was an appreciable increase from 1920 to 1930 but a marked de
crease from 1940 to 1944 If the present trends continue it is clear that
the white population of elementary school age will be much smaller during
the next decade than in the two proceding decades Among Negroes the trend
in population is less consistent and less marked than in the case of whites
In general however there has been a slight or Parked decline in the Negro
population from 1940 to 1944 in the age groups under twenty years of age
For most of the age groups the Negro population remained relatively stable or
increased slightly from 1930 to 1940
Population mobility of heads of households and of nates of heads For these
population groups there are three types of data on nobility Tables VI and VIIj
1 Number of years residence in present home 2 number of hears residence
in Heard County and 3 number of years residence in Georgia Negro heads
22 years and mates of heads 21 years have lived in their present home
for a shorter period than have white heads 41 years and white mates of
heads 26 years More than 25 percent of heads and mates of heads of both
races have lived in their present homes less than one year Seventyfive
percent of the white heads have lived in their homes less than 167 years
but in the case of Negroes 75 percent have lived in their present homes less
than 59 years There are no appreciable race differences in the median
number of years which heads and mates of heads have lived in Heard County The
medians for these groups are as followsi White heads 367 years Negro heads
352 years white mates 306 years Negro mates 286 years The median
number of Vcars residence in Georgia for each of the four population groups
are as follows White heads 449 years Negro heads 434 years white mates
399 years Negro mates 366 years It is clear from the above data that
among both whites and Negroes the average head of a household has lived in
Georgia most of his life and has lived in Heard County for only a slightly
shorter period On the other hand it appears that among both races a pro
nounced amount of population mobility exists within the county as indicated
by the fact that more than 25 percent of heads and nates of heads have lived
in their present hones less than one year
Population nobility among household members other than heads and nates The
data on the mobility of this group are of two types l Locale of previous
residence in Heard County in other Georgia County in other states and
2 number of years spent in last previous residence in Heard County in other
Georgia County in other state Tables VIII XI According to the School
Census data approximately four out of ten persons of each race and sex have
had no previous hone in Heard County Eight out of ten Negroes and seven out
of ten whites have not resided in any other Georgia county Only about one
person out of ten of both races and sexes have ever resided outside of Georgxa
Among persons who have had a previous residence in Heard County the median
length of such previous residence was 14 years for whites and 23 years for
Negroes Among persons who had a previous residence in some other Georgia
county the median length of such residence was 18 years for whites 21
years for Negroes Among persons who had previously resided in some other
state the median length of such residence was 36 years for whites and 456
years for Negroes It is interesting to note that among both sexes of both
races Alabama was the state of previous residence for more persons than all
other states combined It is clear from the above data that members of
households other than heads and mates have generally had a very limited back
ground of previous residence This finding is partly accounted for by the
fpct that well more than half of these groups are less than twenty years of
ape It is also partly accounted for by the fact that the general cultural
pattern in Heard County allows for considerable mobility within the county
but less mobility within the State and only very slight interstate mobility
Population mobility among 1ohildren away from the parental home The data
on the mobility of this group are of two typest 1 State of present resid
ence and 2 Number of years lived at present residencelTables XllXiv
Seven out of ten negroes and eight out of ten whites away from the parental
home reside somewhere in Georgia The whites who have moved out of Georgia
are distributed over twentynine states Nearly half of the whites who left
Georgia reside now in Alabama The remaining outofstate white migrants tend
to be concentrated more heavily in the South than in other sections The
Negroes who moved out of Georgia are distributed somewhat uniformly among
thirteen states although more have moved to the adjoining state of Alabama
than to any other one state The median number of years lived in present
residence for each race and sex is as follows White males 2S years
white females 25 years Negro males 39 years Negro females 26 years
Relationships of other persons to heads of householdb For both races
members of households other than heads and mates of heads are likely in
four cases out of five to be children of the head of the householdTable XV
Prts A and B Grandchildren occur in Negro households about twice as
frecuently as in white households Among both races there are comparatively
few nonrelatives living in the household The proportion of relatives
other than child grandchild or parent is about the same for both races
Practically all of the persons listed as away from parental home are child
ren of the head of the household
Number and types of severe handicaps among selected population groups
Accordinitothe data provided by theTS School Census the number of persons
who have handicaps severe enough to interfere with work or school is re
latively small The ratio of severe handicaps is somewhat smaller among
children away from home than among members of household except heads and
mates Table XVI Parts A and B The relatively few handicapped persons
are rather uniformly distributed among the six categories of handicaps listed
on the Education Census schedule
EDUCATION
Years of school completed by selected groups of white persons 19 The
iodal amount of education for heads of households and mates of heaas of
household is the seventh grade whereas the modal amount of education for
children away from home is the eleventh gradeTable XVII At every
level of schooling below the ninth grade there is a smaller percentage
distribution of children away from home than of either heads of mates
of heads of households For example 55 percent of heads of households
and 3 percent of mates of heads of households are illiterate whereas
only9 percent of children away from home are classified as illiterate
Also the rate of college attendence is roughly three times as great among
children away from home as among heads or mates of heads of households
7
The relatively low educational status of other members of the household
is due to the fact that this population group includes a high percentage of
children who are too young to have entered school or at least have not lived
long enough to achieve their probable final level of academic attainments
Years of school completed by selected groups of negro persons 1M The
median amounts of education for the several population groups are as follows
Table XVIII Heads 5 grades Mates of heads 59 grades others in
household H3 grades all members of household U7 grades and children
away from home 58 grades It is to be noted that in each of the five
population categories Negroes are notably retarded educationally as compared
with Whites
Grade status of persons enrolled in school 1M Among both races females
have reached a higher median grade status than have the males Table XIX
This sex difference in grade status of school enrollees is particularly out
standing in the case of Negroes where it is found that Negro females have
achieved a median grade status 38 grades twoce as great as that for Negro
males 19grades The median white female enrollee 55 grades is only
6 grade more advanced in school than the median white male enrollee 49
grades When the median grade status of the two races are compared by each
sex separately it is found that the median white male enrollee has achieved
a grade status U9 grades almost three time fcs high as that of the median
Negro male enrollee 19 grades and that the median white female enrollee
has achieved a grade status 55 grades roughly one and onehalf times as
high as that of the median Negro female enrollee 38 grades The enroll
ment rates in Junior and senior highschool grades for both races and part
icularly for Negroes is much lower than might be desired
Trends in Illiteracy Persons over ten years of age who are unable to read
and write are classified in the Federal Census as illiterate During the
3 years covered by the four census periods cited Table XX the illiteracy
rate among Negroes has declined from 371 percent in 1910 to 73 percent in
19UU The period of most rapid decline in illiteracy among Negroes was from
1920 to 1930 At each of the four census periods whites show an appreciably
lower illiteracy rate than do Negroes There was however an increase in
illiteracy rates among whites from 1930 to 19UU whereas the illiteracy rate
for Negroes showed a consistent decline at each successive census period
Trends in school attendence The gross number of persons attending school
increased by nearly onefourth from 1920 to 1930 but declined sharply from
1930 to 19U0 and declined slightly from 19U0 to 19A Table XXI When
school attendence is expressed as a percent of the total number of persons
between 7 and 20 years of age these are the ages on which the Federal Census
data are based it is found that the percentage of such persons attending
school increased from kkk percent in 1920 to 30 percent in I9UU that is
during this 2Uyear period the rate of school attendence almost doubled
Trends in number of teachers and schools The number of white persons
519 years of age per white school in Heard County increased from 37U persons
in 1910 to 1621 persons in 190 an increase of U33 percent during the
thirty years lable XXII The corresponding increase among Negroes was
192 percent Among both races there has been a marked tendency to increase
the size of the student population of schools but the trend is more
pronounced in the case of whites Among whites the number of persons
519 years per teacher increased sharply from 1910 to 1920 remained stable

LP 8
from 1920 to 1930 but declined sharply from 1930 to 1940 Among Negroes
there is a marked and consistent increase in number of persons per teacher
from 1910 to 1930 but a marked decrease from 1930 to 1940 The average number
of Negro teachers per school has remained relatively constant during the 30year
period indicating that nearly all of the Negro schools have been oneteacher
schools Among whites the average number of teachers per school has increased
438 percent during the three decades Apparently most of the consolidation of
white schools occured from 1930 to 194o
Reasons for nonattendance in school 1944 Among both sexes of both races
less than onethird of the general population was enrolled in school in 1944
Tables XXIII and XXIV Among persons not enrolled in school fewer than 8
percent were of legal school age Among persons of legal school age who were
not enrolled in schoolthe reasons given for such nonenrollment are fairly uni
formly distributed among eight reasons listed on the school census form It is
noted that disinterest in school ranks relatively high among these reasons for
both sexes of both races White nonenrollees stated that they were out of
school in order to help support the family less frequently than did Negro non
enrollees
OCCUPATIONS AND EMPLOYMENT
Employment status of persons fourteen years of age and over 1940 In the
Federal Census of 1940 Table XXV persons engaged in homemaking activities
are listed as being not in the labor force Consequently comparsions of data
on occupations obtained from the 1944 School Census and the 1940 Federal Census
are difficult to make It is interesting to note however that according to
the 1940 Federal Census only 87 percent of white females fourteen years of age
and over are listed as being in the labor force whereas l45 percent of Negroe
females are so listed Among males fourteen years of age and over 809 percent
of whites and 877 percent of Negroes are listed in the labor force It is to
be noted that a considerably higher percentage of the white general population
than of the Negro general population is of employable age ae defined by the
census Among persons listed in the labor force it is found that the modal oc
cupation for both vhite males and Negro males is employers and ownaccount
workers Among persons in the labor force females of both races are likely
to be doing their own house work White males not in the labor force are more
likely than Negroes not in the labor force to be in school
Principal occupations 1940 Analysis of the data in Table XXVI reveals that
among both white and Negro males the most frequent occupational classification
is farmer and farm manager In both cases this classification includes rough
ly onehalf of the labor force If other types of farm work ie farm labor
erg wages and unpaid are added to the above classification it is found
that 769 percent of the white males and 776 percent of the Negro males are en
gaged in some type of farm work Among the males of both races there is a notable
dearth of professional and s eniprofessional workers as compared with national
averages Among the females there are relatively few persons listed in the
labor force Professional work is the nodal occupation of white women in the
labor force 263 percent Among Negro women in the labor force domestic
service 389 percent and unpaid farm laborers 265 percent are the most
prevalent form of employment
Principal occupations of white persons 1944 The data on occupations Table
XXVTI Part A obtained from the 1944 School Census of Georgia differ from the
1940 Federal Census in two respects l The occupational classifications do
not coincide and 2 the 1944 data are broken down by selected population 9
groups Nearly all of the heads of households nates of heads and persons
away from parental hone are listed as having a principal occupation however
anong nenbers of household except nates and heads only about three persons
out of ten are listed as having a principal occupation The nodal occupation of
heads of households is agriculture 628 percent but the nodal occupation of
nates is honenaking 857 percent Anong persons away fron parental hone
the nodal occupation for fenales is honenaking but anong males about an equal
nunber are engaged in agriculture 295 percent and in manufacturing 296 per
cent It is obvious that there is a tendency anong both nale and female per
sons away fron parental hone to engage in a nuch wider variety of occupational
activities than did their parents The drift away from the parental pattern of
occupations is mainly into manufacturing the professions and government service
Menbers of households other than heads and nates when employed tend to choose
the occupations followed by heads and nates of heads of households
Principal occupations of Negro persons 1944 The pertinent data are shown in
Table XXVII Part B As was the case anong the whites the nodal occupation
anong Negro heads of households was agriculture 765 percent and the modal
occupation anong the Negro nates of heads was honenaking 867 percent
Anong persons away fron the parental hone there was a tendency to drift away
from the parental patterns of occupations but the tendency was not nearly so
pronounced in the case of Negroes as was true in the case of whites Among the
Negro males away from hone manufacturing is chosen as an occupation about twice
as frequently as anong heads of households but agriculture was chosen only
about twothirds as frequently anong nale persons away fron hone as for heads of
households Among Negro females away fron hone honenaking occurs only about
twothirds as frequently as in the case of nates of heads of households but
employment in personal service occurs among female persons away from home
about ten times as frequently as among mates of heads of households With the
exception of the population category entitled other members of households
in which category less than onefourth of the persons are employed the rate
of employment for the various population groups is relatively low It is of
interest to note however that among Negro persons away from home the pro
portionate number listed as having no occupation is about twice as great as that
for whites
VALUE OF RESOURCES AND INCOME
Value of farm lands and machinery 190 The data for Table XXVIII were taken
fron the 190 Federal Census Agricultural Reports for Georgia The data show
a relatively large but decreasing number of small farms In the period 1930
1940 there was a marked decrease in the number of whiteowned farms with a
corresponding increase in the size of farms The value of both white and non
whiteowned farms is considerably less than the average value per farm for the
State These facts indicate in general a large number of small unimproved
farms of ownerresidents Figures indicating total and per farm value of farn
lands and machinery vary considerably between 1930 and 1940 These data however
have little neaning until they are equated in terns of the index of money values
for the respective years The value of inplenents per farm indicates a large
degree of cultivation by hand of nonmechanical devices
HOUSING
Housing general characteristics 1940 The da
S rtsus xeatfts 1940 Housing in Georgia
The data for Table XXIX were taken from
They show in general that 10
housing units of the county are snail in serious need of Repair and are devoid
of many conveniences found in modern rural hones Sone factors indicative of the
absence of conveniences nay be seen in the snail number of hones with electric
lighting refrigeration devices nodern nethods of heating and cooking running
rater indoor flush toilets bathing facilities and accessible outdoor water
supply Lack of conveniences is indicated by the high percentage of hones equip
ped only with the simpler devices
WELFARE
Nunber of persons receiving public assistance Table XXX shows that the ratio
of dependent children served by the Childrens Bireau is only onefourth as
great as the average for the State as a whole The ratio of crippled children
receiving aid from the welfare departnent is roughly only onethird as great in
Heard County as the average for Georgia On the other hand the number receiving
oldage assistance is approximately 70 percent more than the state average the
nunber receiving surplus commodities is a little nore than twice as great as the
state average and the number reoeiving aid for the blind is three tines as great
as the state average Apparently a relatively large nunber of people in Heard
County are receiving oldage assistance and a relatively snail number of children
are receiving publicwelfare funds
Receipts for public welfare purposes It is clear from the data in Table XXI
tteTpmsatoTard County for aid to the blind for oldage assistance
and to parents of children attending C C C canps fairly closely approximated
the average for the entire State When expenditures are expressed as a rate per
1000 persons in the general population it is found that Heard County received
substantially less surplus commodities but substantially more public assistance
than the state average
Morbidity and mortality rates The data cited in Tables ai and XXXIII were
compiledbyThe Georgia Department of Public Health and cover the decade 1934
43 The 194143 rates arc based on the1940 Federal Census Expressed in terms
ofthe average annual number of illnesses reported per 100000 general population
the morbidity rates far connon reportable diseases in order of frequency of oc
currence are as follows u

SELECTED CHARACTERISTICS OF HOUSEHOLDS
Characteristics of households as to size classes of members etc Excluding
children away fron home the average size of white households 41 persons
and of Negro households is 51 persons The typical white household has one
nale child and one female child at home Table XXXIV as well as one male child
and one female child away from home Table XXXV As contrasted with white
households Negro households tend to have more male and female children at home
but fewer male and female children away from home In both white and Negro
households there are relatively few nonrelatives and relatives other than
children although there are proportionally more of each of these groups inJ i

LO 11
Negro than in white households The ratio of fulltine and of parttine employ
nent is somewhat higher in white households than in Negro households which is
due perhaps in part to the fact that Negro households have a considerably higher
percentage of persons under twelve years of age but a snailer percentage of per
sons above twentyfive years of age than do white households Severe handicaps
to work or school are reported for 13 percent of the white population but for
only 10 percent of the Negro population Table XXXIV There is a markedly
lower rate of children in the armed services anong Negroes than anong whites
Table XXXV This circumstance nay be due in part to the notably lower educa
tional attainments of Negroes than of whites as revealed in another section of
this report Tables XVII XX It also theoretically night be due to a
higher incidence of diseases among Negroes than anong whites although the avail
able data do not warrant racial comparisons on this point
Status in family of heads of households Among bqtfc whites and Negroes slightly
more than nine outof ten Households are headed by fathers and slightly more than
eight out of one hundred households are headed by mothers Table XXXVI The
proportion of households headed by grandparents is slightly higher among Negroes
than among whites
Socioeconomic characteristics of households Selected indices of the socio
economic status of households are presented in Table XXXVII Approximately one
half of the white families own their homes although only oneeighth of the Negro
families own their homes No Negro family reported an inside toilet and only
66 percent of the white families reported inside toilets Nearly onetenth of
the white hones have running water although only one Negro home in two hundred
has running water Of the comparisons made the biggest discrepancy between
white and Negro hones is in the proportion having electric lights Whites 449
percent Negroes 81 percent Approximately four out of ten white hones have
dally newspapers although less than onetenth of the Negro hones have dally
newspapers Alnost threefourths of the white hones have radios although only
about onefourth of the Negro homes have radios Roughly nine out of ten white
homes and three out of ten Negro hones have family gardens
51be of homes Inspection of Table XXXVIII reveals that the modal white family
lives in a fourroom house whereas the modal Negro family lives in a threeroom
house The median number of rooms per house far the two races aret Whites 48
rooms Negroes 40 rooms When it is recalled that the typical Negro household
51 persons is considerably larger than the typical white household 41 per
sons the comparatively smaller houses of Negro families becoce all the more
significant Obviously the ratio of rooms per person is significantly smaller
for Negro than far white families There is also considerably less variation in
the size of Negro homes P E 75 rooms than of white hones P E 95 rooms
Military status and employment status Among both whites and Negroes there are
relatively few heads of households or mates of heads of households in the armed
services Table XXXIX Of white children away from home 326 percent of the
males and 12 percent of the females are in military service Of Negro children
away from home 273 percent of the males and 4 percent of the feamles are in
military service Females of both races are notably less likely than males to be
in military service It is also noted that Negroes of both sexes are less likely
than whites to be in military service Except fa the category other3 in house
hold there is a very high ratio of fulltime employment among both races In
the category others in household it is noted that whites have considerably
higher ratios of fulltine and of parttime employment than do Negroes This
circumstance nay be due in part to the finding previously reported Tables I and
II that the median age of white children at home is considerably higher than
that for Negro children at homeAge Distribution of White Persons in Heard County
