excerpt on 19th/20th century literacy in USA
What is the source for this excerpt on American literacy rates in the 19th and early 20th centuries? I tried searching quotes in a couple of search engines and found nothing.

Thanks. 138 appears to be from "New Tracks in North America" by William A. Bell.
