The national defense eoucation act of 1958, briefly referred to as NDEA, authorized something over one billion dollars in Federal aid over a four-year period. “In the swinging sweep of its 10 titles it touches—and returns to touch again—every level of education, public and private, from the elementary school through the graduate school. Its billion dollars, though authorized for a dozen separate programs, have been authorized for a single purpose-that every young person, from the day he first enters school, should have an opportunity to develop his gifts to the fullest.”1 It is quite clear that Congress recognized how exceedingly important is superior instruction at the elementary level as well as in high school and college. The Act concerns itself with the finding and encouraging of talent, the improving of teaching, and with the furthering of knowledge itself. This Act includes the instructor of arithmetic.

Federal policy changes are promoting increased state-local revenue self-sufficiency. The local role as a service provider could be maintained through either increased own-source revenues or increased slate aid. Several state-local trends and features suggest that relatively more of the adjustment might come through state aids. General support aids would best preserve local discretion, but some argue such aids are too stimulative and cause a bloated public sector. Analyzing 174 Minnesota cities, this article explores possible implications of these federalism changes. Both local tax features—base size and ability to export local taxes—and intergovernmental aids are significant determinants of local taxes per capita. Federal aids (aggregate) and one of two state general support aids stimulate local taxes, but to differing degrees. Consistent with theoretical predictions, matching state aid is most stimulative, while modified lump-sum state aid exerts no influence on local taxes, providing possible discrimination between two views concerning the stimulative effect of a tax effort factor in a lump-sum aid distribution formula.

AbstractThe effects of structural shifts in the treatment of intergovernmental aid during the 1980s are tested using a sample of 1,929 rural counties with local road responsibilities. A dynamic model is used to test the hypothesis that local public officials treated intergovernmental aid differently after the Reagan/Bush policy of Fiscal Federalism was implemented. Empirical findings from the dynamic model are that Federal aid was much more stimulative at the end of the decade than in earlier years but the effects of state aid remained the same throughout the 1980s. These differences are attributed to a perception that Federal aid is less certain and more transitory than permanent.
