Lord Stanley Urges Self-Reliance in National Education Drive
Lord Stanley argues that self-improvement must be a minority but influential factor in education. He praises George and Robert Stephenson, Fairbairn, and industrial leaders who fund institutions, warns against excessive state aid, and urges independence, private sponsorship, and affordable access to education and related social schemes to reduce ignorance, poverty, and heavy labor.
