Used in: Looking Behind Appearances
Most young Americans, therefore, can read, write and cipher. Not more than four in a thousand are unable to write legibly even neatly; while in Spain, Portugal, Italy, only a sixth of the population can read; in Germany, even in France, not more than a third; in Poland, about two men in a hundred; and in Russia not one in two hundred. (p. 30)
