Abstract
ESSEX is one of the counties which, since the passing of the Local Taxation (Customs and Excise) Act of 1890, has devoted the whole of the funds thus provided to the purposes of higher education. At first almost the entire grant was distributed among some forty local technical instruction committees for the purpose of lectures and classes in the areas under their supervision, but by degrees the greater part has been diverted to the erection, equipment, or support of secondary and technical schools in the more important centres.
