B. LYON COMPANY, PRINTERS 1915 State of New York No. 25 IN ASSEMBLY January 21, 1915 REPORT OF INVESTIGATION OF THE COST OF PROVIDING FREE TEXT BOOKS STATE OF NEW YOEK State Department of Efficiency and Economy Albany, Jcmwary 21, 1915 To the Legislature of the State of New York: Herewith is transmitted Report of the Investigation of the Cost of Providing Free Text Books in the Schools of the State, sup- ported by the State and by its several cities, towns, villages and school districts, conducted by the New York Department of Effi- ciency and Economy in accordance with the provisions of chapter 767 of the Laws of 1913. JOHN H. DELANEY Commissioner of Efficiency and Economy REPOET OF INVESTIGATION OF COST OF SUPPLYING FREE TEXT BOOKS IN THE PUBUC SCHOOLS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK An estimate of the cost of fumishing free text-books to the pupils in the public schools of the State must be based upon the following factors: 1. Number of pupils : (a) Elementary — eight grades. (b) Secondary — four grades. 2. 'Course of instruction: (a) Elementary. (b) Secondary. 3. Unit cost of books : (a) Subject. (b) Grade. 4. Quantity to be furnished: (a) Installation. (b) Renewals. The number of pupils in every school is registered with the State Department of Education, and the average daily attendance is also recorded. The schools are divided into- grades, but no reports are made to the Education Department regarding the number of pupils in each grade. The elementary schools comprise grades one to eight, inclusiye, in which the normal age of pupils is from five to fourteen years. The secondary schools comprise grades nine to twelve inclusive, and are for advanced pupils. The course of instruction in elementary and secondary schools is established by the Regents of the University of the '.State of ISTew York, and is published in a Syllabus. In the eight elementary grades are included reading, spelling, writing, arithmetic, geog- raphy, physiology, grammar and history. In the four secondary grades are included English, modern and ancient languages, mathe- matics, physical and biologic sciences, history and social science, commercial subjects, drawing, music and other subjects. 6 New Yoek Department op Eppiciency and Economy The unit cost of books is regulated both by subject and grade. The cost of readers differs from the cost of geographies, and the books used in the lower grades cost less than those for the higher grades. The unit costs upon which computations in this report are based were ascertained by actual investigation. The quantity of books necessary is estimated in this report to be one book in each study, for each pupil, in subjects in which a text-book is the basis of instruction. The cost of renewals is based upon a careful study, of expenditures for this purpose, over a period of years, in twenty-eight cities furnishing free text-books. STATISTICS OF 1912-1913 AS COST BASIS In all the computations in this report, the records of the school year 1912-1913 constitute the basis. The information required could be most readily and completely obtained from all sources for that year. From this information, which is practically con- temporaneous and was collected from 15,000 separate sources, accurate conclusions can be drawn. Report of School Book Investigation NUMBER OF PUPILS Elementary and Secondary Schools During the school year of 1912-1913, there were fifty-one cities and thirty-eight villages having centralized elementary and sec- ondary school systems under the direction of a superintendent. Outside of these there were 10,017 rural school districts which included all the elementary schools in the rest of the State, and also 603 secondary schools. Registration and Attendance The total number of pupils registered in the elementary schools for the school year of 1912-1913: was 1*,346,171. The average daily attendance was 1,047,637, not including kindergarten pupils. The total number of pupils registered in the secondary schools was 137,776. The average daily attendance was 100,593, Basis of Computation The total registration is the basis of computation in the esti- mates presented, on the assumption that if the State provides free text-books a supply must be purchased for every pupil on the roll, regardless of duration or regularity of attendance. The total number of pupils appearing upon the roll of each school is designated by the Department of Education as " regis- tration." The average number of pupils pres'ent in the school daily is designated as " attendance." Reports are required from the teachers, and statistics are published by the department, stat- ing registration and attendance, but these reports and statistics relate only to the total number for each school and there is no subdivision into grades. , The actual " attendance " is much less than the total " registration " in the rural district schools. The principals in charge of city, village and union schools, and the teachers in charge of rural district schools reported directly to the Department of Efficiency and Economy, upon forms pro- vided, the number of pupils in each grade. The principals of the city, village and union schools reported the " registration " in each grade. The rural district schools, consisting generally of only one school room and a small number of pupils, reported only upon " attend- 8 New Yokk Department of Efficiency and Economy ance." The percentage of the whole " attendance " reported in each grade was applied to the total " registration " to bring into the calculation all pupils who would have been entitled to receive books at the beginning of the school year. The calculation of per- centages and the application to registration was made for the rural schools in each county. Approximately fifteen thousand teachers and principals reported directly to the Department of Efficiency and Economy during the investigation. Registration by Grades The number of pupils registered in the elementary day schools in 1912-1913 is presented in Table 1. The detailed data from which this is compiled will be found in Table 36, and Table I.

The Syllabus issued by the Regents of the University of the iState of New York is the guide for all teachers in determining the course of instruction. Elementary Studies To secure an authoritative and official interpretation of the Syllabus an inquiry was addressed to the Education Department, and a reply was received from Dr. Thomas E. Finegan, Assistant Commissioner for Elementary Education, as follows : " The Univebsity of the State of New York, The State Department of Education, Albany, May 4, 1914. Commissioner of Effioienoy and Economy, Albany, N. T. : Dear Sir. — I hand you herewith a statement, relating to the time when text-books should generally be taken up in tlie several subjects of the ele- mentary course, which has been prepared by Mr. Wood, Chief of our Inspec- tions Division, after consultation with part of our inspection staff. Very truly yours, (Signed) Thos. E. Finegan." > t 1 " University of the State of New York, Inspections Division, Albany, N. Y., April 30, 1914. Dr. Thomas Einegan, Assistant Commissioner for Elementary Education: Dear Sir. — In reply to your inquiry, let me say that in my opinion the course outlined in the syllabus for elementary schools, adopted in 1910, should be followed in determining the grades where text-books may very properly be used, in the elementary field. There is very naturally and inevi- tably some difference in opinion among experts as to the precise grades in which text-books in certain subjects of study should be used. The elementary syllabus can be very properly followed as a guide until a new syllabus is adopted. Text-books in reading should be used in grades 1 to 6, inclusive. In grades 7 and 8, either text-books or selections from literature. In spelling, text-books at least in grades 4 to 6, inclusive. Selections from other texts may be used in remaining grades. In writing, copy-books should be used in grades 3 to 8, inclusive. In geography, text-books in grades 4 to 6, inclusive. In physiology, text-books in grades 4 to 8, inclusive. In arithmetic, text-books in grades 4 to 8, inclusive. In grammar, text-books in grades 7 and 8. In United States history, text-books in grades 7 and 8, supplemented by biographic readers in the two or three preceding grades. No text-books recommended in literature or nature study. Very truly yours, (Signed) Frank H. Wood." 10 New Yoek Depabtment op Efficiency and Economy The reports of books actually in use in the schools demon- strated that either " Grammar " or " English " was taught in the third to eighth grades. Inquiry at the Education Department elicited the information that the study of English begins in the third grade, and that the analytical study of grammar begins in the seventh grade. As it is evident that a text-book in language study is employed from the third grade onward, such a book has been included in the calculations of cost. It was also ascertained by investigation that writing books were generally small folios or sheets and could more properly be classi- fied as supplies than as books, and these were eliminated from the calculations. Therefore, the course of study established in the elementary schools requires text-books in seven subjects, as shown in Table 3, to wit: TABLE 3 — Elementary Studies Study Reading English and Grammar . Spelling Arithmetic Geography Physiology History Total books by grades . Grades Secondary Studies The Regents' Syllabus also prescribes the general outline of instruction in the secondary schools. There is no required course of instruction for all pupils, as in the elementary schools. The Syllabus contains a general list of subjects of study appropriate to several courses, such as a classical course, a technical or scientific course, a commercial course, and various others. The Syllabus out- line is as follows: Repokt of School Book Investigation 11 SYLLABUS OF SEOONDAEY STUDIES GKOUP I. — LANGUAGE AND UTEBATDBE First Year English Second Year English Third Year English Fourth Year English First Year Latin Second Year Latin Third Year Latin Fourth Year Latin First Year Greek First Year German Elementary German Intermediate German Advanced German First Year French Elementary French Intermediate French Advanced Arithmetic Elementary Algebra Intermediate Algebra Advanced Algebra Physics Chemistry Biology Elementary Botany Elementary Zoology English English Grammar History of the English Language and Literature Ancient Second Year Greek Third Year Greek First Year Hebrew Second Year Hebrew Modern Foreign Advanced French First Year Spanish Elementary Spanish Intermediate Spanish First Year Italian Elementary Italian 6E0UP II. — MATHEMATICS Plane Geometry Solid Geometry Trigonometry GEOUP III. — SCIENCE Physiology and Hygiene Advanced Botany Advanced Zoology Physical Geography GEOUP IV. — HISTOBT AND SOCIAL SCIENCE Ancient History American History vpith Civics History of Great Britain and Ireland Civics Modern History I Economics Modern History II GROUP V. — COMMEECIAL SUBJECTS Elementary Bookkeeping and Commercial Geography Business Practice Commercial English and Correspond- Advanced Bookkeeping and ence Office Practice Business Writing Commercial.

Thus in the city of New York the course in the Boys' High School is different from the course in the Manual Training High School, both of which are in the secondary class. Tables IV and V illustrate the variations in different high schools. Report of School Book Investigation 13 UNIT COST OF BOOKS Finding accurate and indisputable unit costs lias been one of the most difficult and laborious features of this investigation. Every phase of school work affects this factor of calculation. The course of instruction, the divisions of school organization, the methods bf purchase, all must be considered. The course of instruction defines particular studies appropriate to the various grades into which the organization of the schools is divided. Certain studies are common to several grades, but as the pupil advances the text-books change, and the cost is not uni- form. For example a reader for the first grade may be purchased for twenty-five cents and a reader for the sixth grade costs thirty- seven cents. Likewise the method of purchase and the location of the school developed a wide variation in prices. Large communities could buy much lower than individual purchasers. All of the Dooks used in the rural schools and in cities and villages which do not furnish free text-books are purchased at retail prices. The reports made by teachers and principals revealed not only an amazing variety of authors in every subject of study, but also a marked variation in the prices paid in different localities. The schedules of books and prices as submitted by the teachers demonstrated conclusively that the retail prices paid by individual purchasers at local book stores were valueless for the purpose of this investigation, and the work of tabulation of this data was abandoned when approximately half the reports from rural schools had been analyzed. As an indication of the freedom of selection exercised and the variation in prices found, the results of this partial compilation may be of value in any discussion of the subject of standardization. Table III, contains a list of the principal titles of the books re- ported to be in use in about one-half of the rural elementary schools, scattered over fifty-seven counties, and shows the number of schools which reported the use of each book. The city of N'ew York provides free text-books for all the pupils in its public schools, and, therefore, the prices it pays for the enor- mous quantity of books it purchases may reasonably be regarded as a fair basis upon which to compute the cost per book the State would pay under a similar system. 14 New York Depabtment of Efficiency and Economy It was found, however, that the New York City Department of Education had no statistics regarding the average cost of the vari- ous books it purchased, and its reports contained only the total list of books and supplies for each school. The departmental catalogue of books authorized to be used contained several thousand titles, covering a wide range in prices, and, therefore, afforded no indi- cation of the books actually in use. The assistance of Hon. Thomas W. Churchill, President of the Board of Education, and of Dr. William H. Maxwell, City Super- intendent of Schools, was obtained, and. under their direction a complete set of schedules adapted to the New York system was prepared and circulated among the schools of the city. A large corps of investigators was put in the field, and a school to school canvass was made. This work involved a canvass of 450 schools and 18,325 teachers. These schools contained 597,229 pupils in the elementary grades. As the result of this effort the title and price of every text-book in use in 439 schools, containing 588,502 pupils, was secured, and also the number of each book in use and the grade in which it was found. The list of books authorized to be used contains 4,0'31 titles in all, of which 1,806 titles are for elementary schools and 2,225 titles are for use in the secondary schools of New York City. Method of Computation The average price per book of all text-books of the same study comprised in a grade was computed by multiplying the total num- ber in use of each book by its unit price, adding the several sums thus obtained, and dividing the result by the total sum of all books embraced in the calculation. An illustration of the method is shown in the following hypo- thetical table : TABLE 4 — Method of Calculating Average Cost Per Book Number Unit Title in Use Price Amount Jones First Reader 400 X $0.20 = $80.00 Brown's Elementary 300 X .22 = 66 . 00 Smith's First Lessons 200 X .20 = 40.00 Gray's First Reader 100 X .24 = 24.00 Total 1, 000 $210 00 $210.00 -^ 1,000 = $0.21 average cost.

Unlike the elementary grades, there is no rigid schedule of subjects prescribed for each pupil. The course of study outlined in the Eegents' Syllabus pre- scribes subjects of study in each course, but the particular course desired is elected by the student. For example, the student may elect a general classical course, a technical course, a commercial course, or other courses. The method of computing the average cost for each pupil adopted for these schools was to secure the total cost of text-books in use in a grade and then to divide that figure by the total num- ber of pupils in that grade. Table 7 shows the average cost of books for each pupil for each year in the secondary schools of the city of JSTew York.

For the expenditure of a given sum a larger num- ber of pupils in the eight lower grades would benefit. This is demonstrated for the school year 1912-1913 : Number of Pupils Total Cost Per Pupil Cost Elementary 1,346,171 $1,662,336 15 $1.2348 Secondary 137,776 668,039 67 4.8487 Total 1, 483, 947 $2, 330, 375 82 $1 . 5704 The registration in the elementary schools constituted 90.7 per cent, of the entire school population, and the secondary schools contained 9.3 per cent. The elementary grades would have re- ceived 71.3 per cent, of the total amount expended if free text- books had been furnished and the secondary grades would have received 28.7 per cent. This is demonstrated for the school year 1912-1913: Number Elementary 1, 346, 171 Secondary 137, 776 Per cent of total Amount Per cent of total 90.7 $1, 662, 336 15 71.3 9.3 668,039 67 28.7 Total 1, 483, 947 100 $2, 330, 375 82 100 This disproportion between the percentages of the number of pupils in elementary and secondary schools and the percentages of the total amount of money which would go to each of these classi- fications is due to the fact that the secondary schools require a greater number of more highly priced books than the elementary schools. This fact is further indicated by an examination of the cost for each pupil shown in above. Distribution of Cost by Counties The organization of the public school system of the State of New York is established on a county basis, each county containing not less than one supervisory district, except the five counties com- prised in the city of New York.

Repobt of School Book Investigation 27 SCHOOLS OMITTED FEOM ESTIMATE Evening Schools The State Education Department reports that there were 119,- 770 pupils in the elementary evening schools of the State, and 55,008 in the secondary evening schools during the school year 1912-1913. These were not taken into consideration in the cal- culations of cost of supplying free text^hooks. To supply the number of pupils registered in 1912-1913 in the evening schools with the books required in the day schools would cost, calculated on the annual cost for each pupil in the day schools, as follows : For elementary evening schools $147,892 00 For secondary evening schools 266,717 29 Total $414,609 29 Denominational and Private Schools A very large number of children of school age also omitted from the estimate of the cost of furnishing text-books, which should be recorded in a tabulation of the school population, attend denominational schools. The Constitution prohibits State aid to denominational schools in Article IX, section 4, as follows : "Article IX, Sec. 4. Neither the State, nor any subdivision thereof, shall use its property or credit or any public money, or authorize or permit either to be used, directly or indirectly, in aid or maintenance, other than for examination or inspec- tion, of any school or institution of learning wholly or in part under the control or direction of any religious denomination, or in which any denominational tenet or doctrine is taught." There were 223,955 pupils in the elementary grades of 648 Roman Catholic denominational schools during the school year of 1912-1913. This number was 13.1 per cent of the total school population of the iState. These schools are organized on the same general plan as the public elementary schools. They contain eight grades, a similar course of instruction, and in them tuition is free. Tables VII and VIII show the number of pupils by grades, the cost of books calculated on the same basis as the public elementary schools, and the distribution by counties. No other denomination maintains an organized school system so comprehensive, although, in various localities, there are other 28 New Yokk Depabtment of Efficiency and Economy private denominational schools and academies containing elemen- tary grades. An effort was made to obtain complete statistics of all denominational schools, but practically all except those men- tioned are classified generally as academies or secondary schools, and are listed as such in this report and in reports of the Educa- tion Department. It is obvious that if any considerable proportion of the pupils in denominational elementary schools should be attracted to the public schools by the inducement of free text-books, the coat to the State and the various political subdivisions of the State, would be increased, not only for books, but also for teachers and school buildings. There are numerous private and denominational secondary schools, generally listed as academies and seminaries, scattered throughout the State. The pupils in these are not included in the estimates of cost contained in this report.

Further troubles of early times were depicted by a petition of two hundred and seventy-one citizens of Rochester to the New York Legislature in 1846. The petitioners dwelt upon the high prices and the frequent changes of school books, used the word monopoly, charged authors and publishers with interference in school elec- tions, asked for a competent board to select uniform text-books for the entire State and urged that the State furnish them free.-' New York in Contrast with other States New York and nearby States, with the exception of Connecti- cut and Delaware, leave the adoption of text-books entirely to local school authorities. The Board of Regents of New York has not departed from its rule of 1827 not " to express any opinion on the merits of books prepared for the use of common schools." ^ Its annual reports for all the years are singularly free of refer- ence to the subject. In contrast with New York, twenty-four States of the Union take the power of selecting text-books entirely away from their local school authorities, and seven limit the local- ities to lists of books licensed by State boards. Another State delegates to its State Board of Education complete legislative powers upon the subject. The number of States at present exer- cising central control over the choice of text-books is therefore thirty-two, or two-thirds of the States of the Union. In further contrast with New York, fifteen States of the Union, including four out of the five States upon her borders, compel every school district or other school area within their bounds to furnish text- books free to their pupils.^ Text-book Law of New York In 1877, thirty years after the above-cited Rochester petition, New York enacted the present statute limiting change of a text- 1 For the Rochester petition and other selected material relative to text-book con- ditions and movements of early school times, see p. 125. 2 Hough's " Historical and Statistical Record of the University of the State of New York." d. n07. 3 The digest of the text-book laws, pp. 169-194, gives the position of each Stato on the free text-book question ; see also free text-book map of the United States, p. 168. 96 New Yokk Depaktment op Efficiency and Economy book to a period of five years, except upon a three-fourths vote. In 1897, the Legislature, by an act authorizing union free school districts to levy taxes for the purchase of text-books, made effective a povrer that they had nominally possessed since 1864, to issue the books free to pupils. These provisions, with two others, per- mitting school districts to expend a limited amount upon free test-books for poor scholars, and requiring text-book pages upon the nature of alcoholic drinks and other narcotics, constitute the general Text-book Law of New York. Put side by side with the minute and lengthy text-book statutes of Ohio or Texas, they seem very simple. While New York has given the text-book question a little attention at long intervals, many other States have given it frequently recurring and radical attention. Present Legislative Activity Besides the present New York inquiry, the Legislatures of Georgia, Virginia and Wisconsin have lately been conducting school book investigations.* During the four years, 1911 to 1914, inclusive, about two-thirds of the States of the Union enacted laws regulating text-books. Literature of Text-book Question The nation-wide literature of the subject, mainly controversial, stretches back through eighty years, in reports of legislative in- vestigating committees, discussions and inquiries of Teachers' As- sociations and State departments of education and articles con- tributed to educational and other periodicals by bookmen, teach- ers, labor leaders and others. The laws of the several States as they stand to-day are the outcome of repeated and varied experi- ment; the literature is the instructive background of legislative effort revealing its mainsprings and explaining its failures and successes.^ Complexity of Problem Consideration of the cost or price of text-books must start from, and include, important topics other than cost or price. The school book problem is a complex of economic, pedagogical, moral and social elements. The tools that the teacher uses ought to be the finest possible. The best text-books are the cheapest. Text-books should present up-to-date knowledge. Their method of presenta- tion should be the very latest development of educational wisdom 4 A Committee appointed bv the North Dakota Educational Association to luvesti.

Admitting that a contract for a geography or a history secures lower prices from a book firm in return for a longer period of adoption, does the end of the period find the pupils conning facts out-of-date and incomplete 1 The free text-book plan lowers general cost by passing books systematically along from pupil to pupil until they are worn out. Does it also lower the pupil's chances of escape from communicable disease or lower his sesthetic sense by compelling him to use an unsightly book soiled by others ? A Legislature cuts down school book prices to fixed maximums. Does its action confine the schools to books of poor quality and form that cheapen the State in the eyes of its citizens or ruin the eyesight of children?* State uniformity and State publication of text-books reduce their price. Do they also restrict the develop- ment of individuality on the one hand and nationalizing tenden- cies on the other? These questions suffice to indicate the need and wisdom of considering the cost and price of school books in the light of, and together with, pedagogical and other phases of the school-book question. Sound economic conclusions demand broad and full survey. Cost and price are important factors to be studied in connection with, and to be correlated with, other factors equally or more important. The value of this or that method of regulating the text-book supply is to be measured not only by immediate and visible results, but by ultimate and hidden tendencies. Main Phrases The main questions relative to text-books have been : 1. How shall their prices be determined and what shall their prices be? 2. Who shall select them, parents and pupils, local school com- munities or State commissions ? 3. Who shall pay for them, parents or taxpayers ? 4. Who shall make them, government experts or private manu- facturers ? Main Methods of Price Control With considerably variety of detail the main methods of price control and determination have been: 1. Competition of books and dealers in open market. 2. Bargaining or contracting of local school communities or 6 For a study of sizes of type best suited to the eyes of young children see review of work of British Association for the Advancement of Science in Literary Digest, vol. 46, pp. 394-396, Feb. 22, 1913. 4 98 New York Depaetment of Epficienoy and Economy authorities with rival hook firms offering their hooks for a selection. 3. Bargaining or contracting of county text-book commissions for books to be used uniformly throughout the county. 4. State law fixing a maximum price for each kind of book. 5. Compulsory State licensing of books for control of price, quality, etc., to some extent, without otherwise interfering with freedom of localities to make selections. 6. Compulsory State licensing, leaving selection to localities, and uniformly deducting a certain percentage from the publish- ers' list prices. 7. State licensing or contracting for a limited number of books in each subject and limitation of localities to selection from this list. 8. Bargaining or contracting of a State text-book commission for a single book or series of books in each subject to be used uni- formly throughout the State, the commission making the selection from books offered by the rival book firms. 9. State or municipal ownership, compilation, manufacture and distribution of the books. County Text-book Commissions The county text-book commission is a selecting authority inter- mediary between the school district board and the State text-book commission. In theory it avoids the inefficiency of the one and the remoteness of the other. It usually acts for the rural districts only, leaving the cities within the county to make their own selec- tions. Where uniformity has been optional with the counties, adoption has been slow. Seven States have county uniformity. In New York, Saint Lawrence county is mS.king a first experi- ment with county uniformity under a special act of the Legisla- ture (L. 1913, ch. 653) which vests selection of the text-books in a council of education, consisting of the county judge, the district superintendents of schools, certain city principals, one city super- intendent and a normal school principal. Maximum Price Laws Laws fixing the maximum prices of text-books have been tried by several States. They are iron-clad in character. The boards, State and local, selecting books under them, have complained that their low and arbitrary prices restrict choice to inferior or out of date texts. The latest State to enact such a law is Illinois, whose Act of 1909 has been declared unconstitutional. Report of School Book Investigation 99 Compulsory Licensing Plan Under the compulsory licensing plan no text-book can be intro- duced into the schools of the State unless the publisher has de- posited a sample copy with the State Superintendent or other State authority and has named the price at which he will furnish like copies to all the schools. This secures State uniformity of price and quality without necessitating State uniformity of books. Ohio obtains a further advantage under this licensing plan by compelling every publisher to make a reduction of twenty-five per cent from his list, wholesale price, as a condition of use of his book in the schools of the State.' State Production and Manufacture State production and manufacture of school text books is a sub- ject of lively present controversy because the reconstructed Cali- fornia printing plant is reporting remarkable reductions in cost and because Kansas is boldly setting out in California footsteps. Private publishers have shown keen and not altogether friendly interest in these developments. The State Superintendent of Georgia has asked the State Legislature to permit him to experi- ment with State production of text-books in one or two subjects. Virginia has postponed State adoptions of text-books in order to make inquiries relative to State publication and North Carolina has had an investigation. Discussion has centered upon the only two experiments upon a State-wide scale that have been at all tested by time; namely, the trials of State production by Califor- nia for a period of about thirty years and by the Province of Ontario in Canada for a period of about twenty years. The laws of Oklahoma and South Dakota confer latent powers of State compilation and manufacture upon their central text-book author- ities, which are possibly intended to be held as a threat over the heads of book companies. City Projects Municipal movements are also of present interest. The city of Saint Louis maintains a public bindery by which, according to its supply commissioner, it rebinds its free books at an average cost of ten and eighty-six hundredths cents per book and an aggre- gate annual saving of twelve or thirteen thousand dollars. The city of Chicago has been investigating the possibilities of munici- pal production of all the city's elementary text-books, and has 7 Tor digests of the Michigan and Ohio licensing plans, see pp. 178, 183. 100 New Yoek Depaetment of Efficiency and Economy published a speller prepared by its teachers. The teachers of Johnstown, Pennsylvania, have compiled for their city a text- book upon its government and industries.* Main Controversy — District vs. State Adoption District adoption offers the minimum and State adoption the maximum of goverimient control. Their comparative merits are the main subject of controversy relative to text-books. The op- ponents of State adoption have been the teachers and the book- men; the advocates, the general public — the parents who buy the books. Attitude of Teacher and Publisher The teachers and the bookmen declare that open competition keeps down prices and introduces the best books. They hold up the admirable American text-book as the product of free business and pedagogical development. State interference, they say, must check the text-book evolution that is still going on. The public mind, say the publishers, exaggerates school book cost. The father who spends twenty-five dollars for Christmas toys begrudges twenty-five cents for a primer. A federal judge, asked what he supposes the school book business amounts to, replies, " about one hundred million dollars." Cost Comparisons The fact is that school book expenditures are moderate in com- parison with other school expenditures or with general expendi- tures of society for necessities and pleasures. The United States spent four hundred and eighty-three million dollars for common schools in 1911-12, of which ten million dollars, or about 2 per cent was for text-books and other instruction supplies. The total school book business of the United States is twelve or fifteen mil- lion dollars a year, while the moving picture business is three or four hundred million. The cost of text-books per capita is not over fifteen cents, and the cost per pupil not over seventy-five cents per year. Of every two hundred dollars spent in rearing a child about one dollar is spent for school books.' Such are the figures from which the publishers argue. They are accused of interested motives, of unwillingness to part with irregular and unreasonable profits. The teachers who side with them against 8 Compare arguments and opinions on State production and manufacture, pp. 139- 146. Compare estimate of Edwin Ginn, p. 147 ; F. A.

Report of School Book Investigation 101 State option are accused of unwillingness to part with petty pow- ers and perquisites. Attitude of Parents The consumers of text-books — the parents who buy them — have continually striven for reduction of the cost and the price of text-books. They have spoken through their representatives in State legislatures. Their usual effort has been for a uniform selection of books by the .State for the entire State. They do not deal in ratios and generalities, as do the publishers, but draw con- crete pictures of poor parents and parents of moderate income struggling to support large families of growing children. On the day that school opens the father is confronted with a demand for funds to buy books. If he inoves to another school neighborhood he may be confronted with a second demand, because the books of the new school are different from those of the old. Competition Between Book Publishers Legislative investigating committees have produced statistics and other evidence to show that competition among book com- panies is not free and general. Ohio investigators of 1881 and Wisconsin investigators of 1911 proved that three-fourths of the text-books in the schools of each State were supplied by a single book company. Each of these investigations also discovered re- markable variations in the retail price of the same book for dif- ferent districts. In Ohio the retail price for the first five readers of McGuffey's series ranged from $1.75 to $3.25. In Wisconsin the same primer sold for fourteen cents in one district and for thirty-five cents in another, the same geography for eighty cents in one district and for $1.35 in another, and so on." Bookmen admit that book companies have attempted to combine. But they claim that the character of the text-book industry makes the alleged book trust a myth.^^ Reduction of Price by State Control That State centralization of control has in one State after an- other cut down book prices from twenty to fifty per cent, and has made and kept them uniform, all parties to the school book ques- tion fairly agree.^^ That the greatest possibility of price reduc- 10 Ohio House' Journal, 1881, p. 1048 ; Report of Special Text-book Committee of Wisconsin Legislature, 1913, pp. 47-51. 11 For denials of the existence of a book-trust by bookmen and others, see pp. 152-157. 12 Russell Sage Foundation, bulletin no. 124 ; American School Board Journal, vol. 47, p. 40 ; Inaugural address of Governor Campbell of Ohio, January, 1890. 102 New York Depaetment of Efficiency and Economy tion lies in compulsory use of a single text-book for a given sub- ject by every school in the State — the larger the State the larger being the possible reduction — is provable by economic law and by actual experience. State uniformity, if rejected, must be rejected because conflicting considerations are more important than price reduction. Advantages of local Adoptions Those who prefer selection by the school districts rather than by a State text-book commission say : Local adoption is home rule; State adoption centralized power. Variety of text-books signifies the variety of knowledge and train- ing that work for life and progress. Uniformity " simply means holding everybody down to the level of the least competent." When the teacher of early times succeeded after no little effort in getting the same book into the hands of every member of his class, uniformity attained its main pedagogical reason for being. The difference in city and county conditions, the variety of needs and desires for different parts of the State, the dissimilar life experiences of the immigrant boy in the crowded city and the American-born country lad in the mountains, call for different text-books. Under local adoption the teacher's personal equation has had play. He has selected the book that has suited him best. One teacher uses this book, another that, to advantage.^^ The army of book agents necessitated by thousands of local adoptions spreads new pedagogical methods and ideas among the teachers and gathers hints for text-book improvements for the publishers.^* Disadvantages of State Adoption A local school community feels the taxes that it imposes upon itself for school books ; a State commission does not feel such inci- dence of personal expenditure. State uniformity is a step to State publication and distribution, with their openings towards blind extravagance. With a single small commission selecting books for an entire State, the amount of money involved runs into the hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the dangers of bribery are great. State uniformity bills in the Legislature bring the agents of the book companies, the " ins " and the " outs," to the lobby. The meeting of the State Commission to select books is the signal for a " hot campaign in which every important book- publishing house in the country participates." ^'^ State adoption 13 Compare symposium on the merits of local versus State .mlformlty and adop- tions, pp. 134-139 : Virginia Constitutional Convention, 1901-1902, Debates, pp. 1818-1827: Sierra Educational News, vol. 8, p. 335. 14 See " Good Words for Traveling Bookmen." p. 148. IB American School Board Journal, July, 1914, p. 75. In Louisiana the sub-corn- Eepokt of School Book Investigation 103 tends to centralize contracts in three or four firms, whereas local adoptions distribute them among twenty-five or thirty. State text- book commissions, brought into existence by impatient public de- mand for reduction of prices, have more than once foisted upon the schools for considerable periods of years books out of date, poor of make or extremely unsatisfactory to the teachers — for no rea- son except that they have been a few cents cheaper than others. History of State Uniformity The States in which American education has had its origins and its highest development — the New England and Middle Atlantic States — have had no movements for state uniformity with the exception of Vermont and Delaware which have discarded it after trial. Minnesota, Michigan, Missouri, Wyoming and Washington have likewise tried and rejected state uniformity." Some of them found it exceedingly difficult to enforce. Wisconsin has not adopted the recommendations of her legislative committee of 1911 for State uniformity, l^entucky has changed from State uni- formity to county uniformity in 1910 and back again to State uni- formity in 1914. Popular demand for State uniformity as the means to a reduction of the cost and price of school books has been seconded in certain States by a political motive equally if not more potent. The Canadian province of Ontario affords an early illustration. Until 1850, Ontario freely used school books from the United States. The early American readers, histories and geographies were full of the glory of the young republic and of the shortcomings of England — more particularly in their descrip- tions of the Kevolutionary War and the War of 1812. For this cause the government of Ontario decided in 1850 to restrict the admission of American text-books to such as should be approved by its Minister of Education. To do so effectively it had to assume central control over the school districts of the province to the ex- tent of prescribing uniform books for their use." Scant treatment of California in eastern-made text-books has probably had some- thing to do with uniformity laws on her statute books favorable to California authors as well as to California printers. But the States of the south afford the chief ilkistration, they have almost unanimously followed Ontario's example because of their objection mlttee on text-books excludes agents from its sessions and makes a secret report to the text-book commissioners ; in Oregon .the State text-book commission allows no interviews to publishers during a period of three weeks before making its selec- tions ; in Texas the merits of text-books must be presented by publishers and agents at sessions of the State text-board and not otherwise ; American School Board Jour- nal, vol. 4B, p. R6 ■ vol. 47, p. 46. 16 Report of Michigan Superintendent of Public Instruction, 1898, p. 58. 17 See account of the Ontario plan, p. 141. 104 New Yoek Deipabtment of Efficiehtcy and Economy to northern accounts of the Civil War. New southern publish- ing companies print school books by southern authors for southern schools.^^ The older private publishing houses of the United States sending their books into every nook and corner of the land have stood for nationalization. Under their continent-wide competition American text-books have attained a development that is the marvel of European educators." Disadvantages of Local Adoptions On the other hand those who favor selection by State text-book commission rather than by local authorities say : " The men elected to city school boards are generally unfitted by ignorance or selfishness for the selection of school books. Country school trustees are equally unfit at least in point of ability.^* Local school teachers are only a grade better. Stingy, small men on country boards block much needed changes or vote for the cheapest books. Texts out of date fifteen or twenty years are found in such districts. Prices paid by local boards are frequently higher than prices in the open market. The fewer the pupils in a school, the less likely its chances of securing favorable prices from pub- lishers and liberal treatment from local dealers. The local dealer is sometimes politician enough to control both board and teacher. The tendency, especially in country districts, is to buy books for all the subjects of the curriculum from a single firm, because of less freight and trouble or because the retail dealer declines to act for more than one publisher. The teacher's book recommenda- tions generally guide the school board. In cities the influence of superintendents and teachers is so strong that they place books writ- ten by themselves in the schools, even though their books have lit- tle or no adoption in other communities and are patently inferior to other texts. When book agents visit communities, they ap- proach the teachers. Usually they go no further. Friendship of teacher and agent, rather than merit of the book, is often the decisive factor. The agent persuades the teacher and the teacher persuades the board to throw out his rival's books and put in his own. The book agents are continually a disturbing influence." Expense of Selling A host of local adoptions means a tremendously greater expense to the publishers than a single State adoption. This expense is added to the cost of the books and comes out of the consumers' 18 American School Board Journal, vol. 48, p. 44. 19 Tribute of the Moseley Commission of British educational experts, cited on p. 144. 20 C. G. Pearse In American School Board Journal, vol. 46, p. 10. Report of School Book Investigation 105 pockets. Three thousand complimentary copies are usually sent out when a text-book makes its first appearance. Falling ulti- mately into the hands of local dealers or of companies that make a business of collecting them, these complimentary copies demoral- ize the tuade. The authors get no royalties from them. The army of highly paid agents is a like heavy expense to the publishers of like incidence on the consumers. A single firm employs seventy salesmen at salaries of $2,500 to $5,000 and pays their traveling and other expenses.^* Advantages of State Adoption Under State adoption a single journey of a single agent to the meeting of the State text-book commission and a single compli- mentary copy from the publisher suffice as the publisher's expense for all the districts of the State. Under State uniformity a pupil moving from one end of the State to the other carries his books with him and easily takes up his studies in the new community where he left them off in the old. Under State uniformity thp dealer in the smallest and most remote rural school district must retail books for the same prices as the dealers in the State metrop- olis. Under State uniformity a powerful wholesale text-book com- pany that has driven its competitors from most of the schools of the State yields to the only power that can curb its extortions and discriminations, real or potential. The State has uniform exam- inations and courses, of study. These suggest and call for state- wide text-books. For the incompetency and weakness of local se- lections and contracts, State control substitutes contracts drawn under State law by central officers of high business ability with ap- proval of the Attorney-General and selections made by conference of the brightest experts from the State's entire teaching force.^^ The Relations of Uniformity and Free-furnishing The question of free text-books and uniform text-books, though distinct in the main, have certain relations, points of likeness and points of contrast. Each has its alternative of State or local adoption. There are four combinations of the two : (1) Compul- sory State uniformity with compulsory State-wide free-furnishing, as in California; (2) compulsory State uniformity with option of localities relative to free-furnishing, as in West Virginia; (3) 21 Statement of Edwin Ginn. p. 151 ; Virginia Constitutional Convention, 1901- 1902, Debates, p. 1820 ; in a message to the Ohio legislature in 1891 Governor Camn- bell said : " Some means should be devised to obviate the enormous and often- times improper expenses incurred by the publishers in marketing their boots. If the money which is squandered by the publisher could be saved for the benefit of the purchaser, it would bring school books down to a comparatively reasonable price." 22 Consult symposium of pros and cons, p. 134. 106 New York Department op Efficiency and Economy local adoptions with compulsory State-wide free-furnishing, as in Massachusetts; (4) local adoptions with option of localities rela- tive to free-furnishing, as in New York. . Compulsory free books for the entire State and State uniformity accomplish the same re- lief from additional expense on behalf of pupils moving from one school neighborhood to another. When the pupil moves under the free book system, the school that he leaves collects the books it has loaned to him and the school that he enters loans him others. This may be true in a State where free books are optional with the localities, as in New York, if the pupil moves from one free book locality to another, say from Syracuse to Albany. On the score of silencing complaints of book-purchasing parents, free books are a greater relief than State uniformity. While State uniform- ity reduces cost and makes it uniform, free books remove it alto- gether, or make it indirect and invisible. This is doubtless a prin- cipal reason, if not the main reason, why State uniformity has not become an issue in Massachusetts or New York. A noteworthy line of contrast between them lies in the fact that pedagogical and social consideration in the main oppose State uniformity but har- monize with free books. Free Books. — Attitude of Teachers, Parents and Publishers The teachers and the publishers join forces against State uni- formity but oppose each other relative to free books. The teach- ers side with the parents in favor of free books. The publishers get uncertain and not very strong support from the taxpayers in opposition to free books.^^ Arguments against Free-furnishing Some of the arguments for and against free books are fanciful and of little consequence. Those who oppose them say : " The movement is socialistic or paternal. People who have no children in school are taxed to pay for the books of other people's children. Free books mean higher taxes. The revenues spent on them might better be applied to much needed increase of teachers' salaries. The pupils lose their pride of personal ownership when they use books loaned to them by the State. School books are no longer a nucleus for the home or individual library. They are less used at home, since they are State property for which the teacher must care out of school hours and during vacations. When school opens, jealousy and disappointment attend the distribution of the books, because some are old and others new. Neat and careful 23 Compare pedagogical advantages of free text-books, pp. 114-117. Repokt of School Book Investigation 107 pupils draw soiled and dilapidated books. Danger of communi- cable disease lies in the common use. Care of the books burdens school teachers and officers with extra work and worry and calls for extra public expense." Arguments for Free-furnishing Those who favor free books say : " Tree furnishing of books is in sequence to free school buildings and free tuition. Free books make the free schools freer. They are in line with the general school movement for free physical inspection, medical treatment, lunches at cost, installation of phonographs and moving pictures.^* They are in line with, and more justifiable than, public expendi- tures for highways, forestation, parks and playgrounds, pensions and workmen's insurance." Eeduction of Cost and Price The free book system tends to reduce cost and price in numer- ous ways. Profits of the middleman- are cut out. Contracting on advantageous terms takes the place of defenseless open market purchases. Publisher and author are relieved of the second-hand dealer. The aggregate number of books needed by the community is less because each book is used to the full limit of its durableness. The book that under private ownership finds its way to a home shelf or closet within a few months after its purchase is contin- ued in service imder public ownership from one to five years. Co-operation of teacher and pupil under the sense of responsibility for public property prolongs the life of the books through the better care taken of them. Exact figures of the saving are afforded by Minnesota statistics for 1912. School districts in that State bought the text-books for their graded and high schools at an aver- age cost of $1.49 per pupil ; districts furnished the text-books free to their graded and high schools at an average cost of seventy-seven cents per pupil. The cost per pupil under the free book plan was seventy-two cents, or almost one-half, less than under the furnish- ing-at-cost plan. Free books save general school expenses by cut- ting out delays when the schools open. If the schools of a great city cost two or three hundred thousand dollars a week, the loss of an aggregate week's time through failure of a considerable part of the pupils to procure books anywhere from a day to a month after the opening means that the city might save money and gain efiiciency by putting the books into the hands of all the pupils at 24 The board of education of New York city i<; installing one liundred and ten phonograplis in the city's schools at an expense of six thousand dollars. — American School Board Journal, May, 1914. 108 New York Department op Efficiency and Economy public expense. All the fuss and vexation between parents and children over the procurement and cost of text-books vanishes un- der a free book system.^ Free Books to the Indigent vs. Free Books to all States that do not furnish books free to all pupils usually, if not in every case, furnish books free to poor pupils. Free books to the indigent have antedated, suggested and demanded free books to all. In certain Massachusetts districts the change from the older to the newer way actually reduced the district expenditure for text-books, because of the superior system, accuracy and terms under the universal plan. Free books to part of the pupils are a badge of charity that parents and pupils of sensitive spirit will not endure. Free books for all are the necessary corallary of com- pulsory attendance. It is impracticable to compel parents to buy books and cruel to impose on them invidious distinctions on ac- count of their poverty. Free books mean better attendance and less need of truant officers.^* Pedagogical Advantages of Free Books The discarding of an old text for a new is easier under the free system because the parents do not complain of the expense. The need of a different book for a class in the middle of the school year does not involve asking the parents to spend additional money. Reduction of cost and price and distribution of the ex- pense through taxation eases the way to the larger number of texts demanded by the expanding curriculum. Free books permit the promotion or demotion of pupils without the financial obstacle of obliging their parents to buy new sets of books for them. The teacher becomes independent of the dilatory parent or retailer. Work starts under full headway the first day. Greater control of the books means greater control of the school. Each and every pupil having a book, requests for permission to study together have no footing. Neatness and preservation of the books are enforce- able by fines and other punishments. Young citizens learn to be careful of public property. Not only do free books tend to bring all the children promptly into school on the opening day, but they tend to prolong school life. The extension of the free book system to the high schools, where book cost is heaviest, decreases the number of youth for whom the end of the elementary grades is the end of school days." 25 See figures and statements relative to the cost and price of free text-books, 20 Compare Free Books for Indigent Pupils, pp. 114-117. 27 Compare Pedlgogical Advantage of Free Text-Books, pp. 114-117. Eepokt of School Book Investigation 109 History of Free Book I/Eorement The States in which American education has had its origin and highest development lead in use of the free book system. It is strongest in cities ; most backward in rural schools. The cities of Pennsylvania, 'New Jersey and New York were furnishing books free long before any State adopted the idea. Distinction of being first lies between Philadelphia and New York 'City. Philadelphia has generally been credited with the earliest use of the free book plan, under date of 1818, but New York City had free books from the beginning of its school system in 1806 under the Public School Society.''^ The New York State law of 1864 making free books optional for union free school districts appears to be the pioneer State legislation upon the subject. Massachu- setts followed and improved upon New York with an optional free book law for all districts in 1873 and ten years later, in 1883 made herself the first compulsory free book State. Since that time thirty States have joined New York and Massachusetts by enacting laws for free books. ^' Sixteen of them have New York's optional plan; fourteen, Massachusetts' compulsory plan. In some of the remaining sixteen States of the Union free books ap- pear to be furnished by certain cities without general State legis- lation, just as they were furnished by New York City and Phila- delphia long before New York State and Pennsylvania enacted general laws in favor of them. For example, the city of Fitz- gerald in Georgia furnishes text-books free though Georgia has no statutes on the subject.'" Chicago has had movements for free text-books and for municipal production of text-books though the laws of Illinois have no provisions expressly granting local govern- ments powers for these purposes.'^ The sixteen States that have no laws for free books, if Oklahoma be classed as southern, are all southern States except Indiana and Illinois. The fifteen States that have the compulsory free book plan are Maine, New Hamp- shire, Vermont, Massachusetts and Rhode Island in New England ; Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland and Delaware in the Middle Atlantic group and Nebraska, Utah, Wyoming, Arizona, Nevada and California in the West. Arizona became a State-wide free book State in 1912; Nevada and California in 1913. Most of these fifteen States furnish free books to their high schools as well as to their elementary schools. In some of the sixteen States 28 John Swett. quoted on p. 115 ; Bourne's History of the Public School Society of the city of New York, p. 11. 29 See free text-book map of the United States, p. 168. 30 Report of Georgia School Book Investigating Committee, quoted on p. 121. 31 Compare Chicago Spelling Book Case, p. 141 ; E. Benjamin Andrews In Cosmo- politan, vol. 32. p. 329. 110 New Yoek Dbpaetment op EFnciENOY and Economy that have the optional free book plan, its spread has been slow; in others, rapid. Michigan has 1,177 free book districts out of a total of 7,327 districts, less than one-sixth; Wisconsin 2,371 out of 6,949, about one-third; Minnesota 6,238 out of 7,901, more than six-sevenths/^ More than one-half of the schools of Minnesota adopted the free book plan within four years.^^ About one-seventh of the union free school districts of New York furnish books free.^* Voluntary vs. Compulsory Free-book System Why have the school districts of Minnesota adopted free books so much more rapidly than the school districts of Michigan ? What are the comparative merits of the New York voluntary district adoption free book plan and the Massachusetts compulsory State- wide free book plan ? These questions are interesting and import- ant. The Minnesota law requiring every school district to vote on the free book question at each annual meeting has promoted speedy adoption. The condition and character of the people is a determining factor. The most backward region of Michigan on the free book score has a large tenant population.^' The voluntary district plan is subject to the criticism that districts which need free books most are least likely to vote for them. Cost of Free Books Statistics of the cost of free books are available to some extent.^' Pennsylvania spent more than a million dollars in 1910. Cali- fornia appropriated half a million dollars in 1913 and distributed 1,416,623 books at a cost of $316,000, including $87,371.52 in royalties. Maryland's annual appropriation of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars is not regarded as sufficient. With a total registration of 127,045 pupils the schools of Maine expended $122,477 for free text-books in 1912-13. The text-book estimates of ISTew York City for 1913 amounted to $571,680.65. The United States Commissioner of Education estimates the average cost of text-books for all the school children of the United States at sixty cents. The average cost of free books in Michigan and Minnesota is about fifty-five cents per pupil, at which rate a dis- trict with thirty school children would need to levy an annual tax 32 Reports of Superintendents of Public Instruction, Michigan, 1913-14, pp. 91, 95, 127, 128 ; Minnesota, 1911-12, pp. 212, 238-241, 246-248 ; Report of Wisconsin Investigating Committee, -1913, p. 13.

Massachusetts has yearly averages for a quarter of a century that fail to separate expenditure for text-books from expenditure for certain other supplies, including maps and charts. According to her averages the cost per pupil for text-hooks and supplies from 1895 to 1903 was one dollar and fifty-five and one-quarter cents. The Massachusetts school report for 1912-13 shows a total enrollment of 557,211 pupils and a total expenditure for free text-books of $4'7.6,0'59.38. Government Manufacture Under new management of the State printing plant California claims to have put a million and a half of books into the hands of the pupils of the State in 1913 at an average cost of twenty-two cents per book. This represented an average reduction of 42 per cent in the cost of State manufacture. Specific items of reduction were the third and fourth readers from thirty-one and thirty-three cents to fifteen and six-tenths and fifteen and nine-tenths cents; the advanced arithmetic from thirty-two cents to sixteen and three- tenths and the hygiene book from nineteen cents to eleven and four-tenths cents.^' In Chicago in 1914, a school book controversy figuring in the resignation and reinstatement of the city superin- tendent of schools, brought about a movement for publication of all the elementary text-books by the board of education and resulted in the production of a spelling book by the city's teachers, one hundred and forty thousand copies of which were contracted for at an average cost of seven cents.®* Conditions in New York New York exercises less control over school text-books than any other State in the Union. Booksellers are entirely free from in- terference and rgulation. The State allows each city, union school district and coromon school district to adopt and use what books it pleases, the only regulation being the course of study outlined in the Eegents' Syllabus. The great city of New York permits each public school to select its own books, from a list of several thousand titles. 19ia, pp. 44, 45, 132, and following, tabulates text-book expenditures for elemen- tary and secondary schools by States and cities. The report of the Georgia School Book Investigating Committee, 1914, gives the prices of the various text- books, primers, readers, arithmetics, etc., In each State. These may be compared with similar statistics compiled by the - Ohio Investigating Committee of 1881. Recent statistics are also to be found under the heading cost and price on p. 117 of this report. During the school year, 1912-13, the city of St. Louis, with a total registration in day and evening schools of 99.651, expended .$25,700.20 for free text-books ; the rates per pupils were $1.21 for the teachers' college. $1.18 for the high schools, 29 cents for the elementary schools, 36 cents for all day schools and 23 cents for evening schools. 37 American School Board Journal, vol. 46, p. 43 ; Nation, vol. 98, p. 73, Janu- ary 22, 1914. ss American School Board Journal, vol. 48, p. 70, June, 1914.

FREE TEXT-BOOKS Objections to Free Books Edmund J. Vert in "Education,'' Septemler 1900, vol. 21, pp. 28, 29. The free text-book system lias a smack of democracy in its very name. It is safe to say that there are more people deluded and entrapped by the word " free " prefixed to a proposition than any other word in the English language. It is a rule for the solicitor to attack his victim at his weakest point. To get something for nothing is the point of points at which the unthinking man is weak. It is assumed that the thing that is described as " free " is in reality free. If it is described, it is because it has value to an assumed purchaser; if it has value, value must have been put into it; if value was put into it, value must be had for it. A few moments' thought discloses the error in the case of the free textnbook system. In reality there is no such system. Text- books are not, and cannot be free. The author and publisher put value into their books, and they must get value out of them. People often think that when they do not pay for a thing directly they do not pay for it at all. Books must be paid for, even though the money be raised by taxation. Taxation is only an indirect method of paying for them; yet there is a vague notion in the minds of many persons that books purchased in this way are free. Another fallacy connected with the so-called free text-book system is that it is assumed that because the books are " free " more of them can be provided. But a little reflection shows that in this system, as contrasted with that of private ownership, the burden is merely shifted from the patron, as a patron, to the taxpayer, as a taxpayer. To the patron who has no taxable property are the books free, and to him alone. In the case of some of this class there is a lurking suspicion that there is a premium on a large family; for the larger the family, the more will he get for nothing. With the same class there exists the same vague notion that so far as education in the schools provided with " free " text-books is concerned there is a premiiim on not having taxable property, for what they get for nothing would be reduced by the amount of the tax. It is a perversion of the fundamental principles of democratic govern- ment to offer an inducement to indolence or improvidence in any form. E. M. Cox in " Transactions of California Commonwealth Club," August 1912, p. 328. The question of free text-books is not new, either in California or elsewhere. In this State our educational meetings have been discussing the matter for twenty years and at nearly every session of the Legislature there has been proposed some sort of a free text-book measure. Ten years ago a committee of our State Teachers' Association made a report upon the experience of other [113] 114 New York Department of Efficiency and Economy states with free text-books. In this report the objections to free text-books were discussed: fully, together with the advantages. The objections offered were: 1. Increase in taxes. 2. Fostering spirit of dependence and irresponsibility. 3. Hygienic difficulties. 4. That home libraries will not be accumulated. 5. That it requires too much time fronl principals and teachers in managing the system.' Xone of these objections were considered vital in the States where free text- books have been used extensively. Taxes are increased slightly, but free text-books unquestionably mean fewer books purchased, so that a small increase in taxes reduces private expense. Free texts, in addition to free buildings and grounds, free tuition, and free supplies can hardly add to the spirit of dependence and irresponsibility. Home libraries may be accumulated under a free text-book system. There is nothing under such a plan to prevent or discourage the purchase of home libraries. Besides, worn text-books are not the most desirable books for these home libraries. Such a system will require some time from teachers and principals, but it will be more than offset by having books ready for use when wanted. The hygienic problem has a more serious bearing on the question. There need be considerable care exercised to prevent spread of disease, and there should not be parsimony practiced in replacing soiled books. But after a careful consideration of all experiences, our committee of ten years ago concluded that " The evidence is overwhelming, almost unanimous in favor of free text-books. The longer they have been used the more positive are the users that the system is a great boon. There does not seem to be any point raised in opposition which has not been repeatedly refuted by experience." Pedagogical Advantages E. Benjamin Andrews in " CosmopoUtwn," 1302, vol. 32, p. 330. It is significant that those states and cities in the Union commonly con- sidered the most advanced educationally have adopted free books as indispens- able to the proper working of a free-school system, and that wherever this has occurred the number of pupils in attendance has increased, the average duration of pupils' attendance has lengthened, a greater number -and propor- tion of pupils continuing their studies clear up to the highest grades, and the whole efficiency 'at the schooling has improved, i have before me a great mass of favorable testimony from able and discriminating superintendents who have had experience with the free system. All arguments contra are theoretical. Wherever free Jbooks have been tried, support of them is, I believe, practically unanimous. E. M. Cox in " Transactions of California Commonwealth Club," August Ifl'12, p. 331. It provides for free text-books not only in the elementary but in the high schools, too. It is in these schools that the text-book cost has been bearing especially hard upon poor boys and girls. No one knows how many of these young people have had their ambition destroyed by this very thing. Those of us who have had charge of school administration know that many hundreds Eepokt of School Book Investigation 115 of our brightest, best and most ambitious young people have had their progress stopped by this cost of text-books. The average cost of text-books in the elementary schools in California is from one dollar and fifty cents to tvifo dollars per pupil per year. The average cost of texts per pupil in high schools is four or five times this amount. Massachusetts PuUio Documents, 1897, vol. 8, pp. 143, 144. Some Advantages of the Free Text-book System. — Experience has brought some of the benefits of the free text-book system into vpell-defined and conspicuous prominence, as, for instance, the foUovfing: 1. The removal of a serious burden of expense from parents. 2. The ending of the friction that so often arises vehen parents with old books in possession are called upon to buy new. 3. The banishing of obnoxious distinctions between those who can and those who can not afford to buy their own books. 4. A more generous and varied supply of text-books at school, with uni- formity wherever desirable. 5. Greater ease in keeping this supply fresh and modern. 6. Increased respect for books, as shown in the care of them. 7. Great saving in time and energy, because of having books on hand, in ample supply, when terms begin or new subjects are taken up. 8. A larger and more permanent attendance upon the public schools. 9. A closer approach to the ideal of a free public school system. John Swett in " Report of National Education Association," 1888, pp. 200, 201. Until within the last ten years text-books were seldom furnished to pupils at public expense. There are two notable exceptions. The schools of the city of New York have been supplied with free books since 180'6, the year in which free schools were established in that city. The reasons urged in 1806 hold good at the present day. They were as follows: 1. To guard against invidious distinctions among pupils on account of indigence. 2. To facilitate uniform and prompt supplies. 3. To guard against extravagance, the teachers being required to care for the property intrusted to them. In the city of Philadelphia, free books have been supplied since 1818, the date of the organization of the present system of free schools in that city. It is singular that these two great cities should have remained so long as the pioneers of free books. Eight states require by law that free books shall be furnished to indigent pupils, and several states have a permissive law authorizing cities or towns to supply free books. It remained for the State of Massachusetts, the cradle of the free school, to make, in 1884, the most notable advance. A compulsory law requiring free books throughout the state was then enacted, and the verdict of the people is that the provision is wise and beneficent. There is no mistaking the tendency of evolution toward free books. It is natural that the views of teachers and educators should be biased in favor of the laws and customs of the state in which they reside; but an impartial survey of the whole country shows that the evolution of the school law is, with a few sporadic exceptions, toward free supplies, free text-books, and toward city, township, and county uniformity. 116 New Yoek Depabtment of Efficiency and Economy E. J. Townsend in "Education,'' May 1891, vol. 11, p. 559. Another advantage to be considered is the economy of the time oi pupil and teacher. Frequently it occurs that pupils are delayed in their work at the beginning of a term for want of proper text-books, or, perhaps, two or more members of the same family are dependent upon the same book in preparing their lessons. This difficulty is increased if the parents are obliged to go some distance to procure the desired books, or, as is too often the case, they are careless and negligent in supplying their children with these neces- sities of school life. As a consequence, children fall behind their class, and becoming discouraged either waste away their time or fall out of school altogether. It could never be otherwise under a system which requires the parent to expend money directly for school-books, no matter how small the expense may be. Free text-books alleviate all this difficulty. By such a plan, the pupil is not only supplied with all the books he needs, but he is supplied at the very time when he needs them. As Ex-Superintendent Thomas of East Saginaw remarks, " No pupil has to wait for pay day of the parent. If the class has iinished the lower book and needs the next higher, each member is supplied at once, each has a fair start and the work moves off evenly. Johnnie is never out of a pen, a pencil, or a drawing book, and nineteen-twentieths of the friction of class organization is eased by this universal lubricator." All this is without any immediate expense or incon- veninece to the parent, and secures not only better school appliances, but a better variety of them. E. Benjamin Andrews in " Cosmopolitan," 1902, vol. 32, p. 333. After all, the chief motive favoring free books for public-school pupils is the pedagogical one. That free books are indispensable to anything like an ideal execution of the free school theory is not open to doubt. In most states, as in Illinois, school authorities are " required to provide a thorough and efficient system of free schools whereby all the children of the state may receive a good common-school education." They cannot properly perform this duty on any plan of individual purchase. Precisely this is the contention of the Chicago Board, that though Illinois law does not in terms authorize free books it in effect does so in commanding " a thorough and efficient system of free schools." Only by resort to the gratuity system can classes be promptly organized at the beginning of sessions. Do our best, the opening of a session sees more or less delay in waiting for pupils who could not take up the work with their classes at the proper time. If school-books are not free, this difficulty becomes appalling. It is not at all uncommon for a pupil to be kept from school many weeks for this reason. One in fact often witnesses the ridiculous anomaly of children hustled into school by truant officers only to sit there and idle away their time for lack of books. That schools thus cursed in any sense succeed is the miracle wrought by indefatigable teachers. Again, without free books classification cannot be just or complete. Pro- motions and reductions are certain not to occur as deserved. If a pupil has begun a session in a given grade and purchased the proper boolis, no principal would wish, and few would dare, to " demote " him to the next lower grade, even if the pupil's interests and those of his grade demanded this ever so imperatively. The same difficulty hinders due promotions. Ascending a grade, the pupil must of course have new books. Even well-to-do and sympathetic parents complain at such a demand. Rkpobt of School Book Investigation 117 E. J. Townsend in "Education," May, 1891, vol. 11, p. 560. No longer could a pupil plead the excuse of " no book " for a poor lesson or for dropping a study entirely. On the other hand, it would permit the teacher to re-adjust the grading of a pupil, when advisable, without any extra expense to the parent, often a delicate matter under any other plan of school supply; it would make possible not only a proper classification of the individual school, but would form a good basis upon whicli the town or county superintendent could arrange a graded system which might be carried out with the highest degree of satisfaction; and finally, as new books of decided improvement appear, it would be possible to make such changes as seemed desirable without extra expense to the community and without that uncomfortable " buzzing " about the ears of school authorities, which usually attend such crises under the individual ownership system. Another gratifying result that may be attributed to free text-books is the noticeable increase of attendance which invariably follows its introduction. This increase is more marked in the higher grades, where the burden of buying books is greater. It has been said that the American high school is a class school, patronized largely by people of more liberal circumstances. This statement would seem true, to some degree, from the records of those schools where this last barrier of expense has been removed. Accordingly, Secretary Dickinson finds, as the result of the text-book law of 1884, that reports from various parts of Massachusetts show a very favorable increase of attendance in general, and in some instances as high as ten per cent. In Fall River, during seven years, the average attendance gained twenty-seven per cent., which Supt. Connell tells us is due almost entirely to free text- books. The Clinton, Massachusetts, schools, indicate also an increase of from five to ten per cent, in the grades from the eighth to the high school inclusive. Many similar examples from other states might be cited verifying the state- ment that it acts as an educational force by keeping the pupils in more regular attendance and by prolonging their school life. Cost and Price Massachusetts Public Documents, 1897, vol. 8, p. 144. The Surprising Cheapness of the Free Text-book System. — It was in 1826 that towns were first required to furnish text-books free of charge to pupils who could not afi'ord to buy them. In 1873, towns were first permitted by law to adopt a free text-book system. As a matter of fact, however, they did not generally avail themselves of this permission. In 1884 the system was made compulsory. For some years previous to 1884' the annual expense of furnishing free text-books, chiefly to " indigent " pupils, was very large, rising in 1880, for instance, to $29-11,728.40, or $1.11 per pupil. The first year under the compulsory law was naturally an expensive year, the cost per pupil being $2.08; thereafter the cost per pupil fell off, the lowest point since reached being $1.42.- In some places the compulsory law has at times literally cost less per pupil than the old " indigent pupil " system, the reduced cost of books when purchased by the municipality in large quantities more than off- setting the increased number of pupils supplied and the more liberal supplies furnished. Steam's " Columbian History of Education m Wisconsin," p. 4. The evident necessity for such action, and the success of such legislation in other states, gradually led to the consideration of the question of free text- 118 New York Department op Efficiency and Economy books. A city superintendent made a study of this latter subject, and ascer- tained that " on the plan of pupil ownership of text-books in a Wisconsin city with a school membership of several hundred pupils, the average cost per capita per annum in all grades — primary to high school inclusive — is $2.30. The same cost in Lewiston, Maine, with a school membership of 3,064 pupils, on a plan of government ownership of text-books, is fifty-eight cents." An exhaustive, report of the state superintendent on this subject, in 1874, resulted in the passage of a bill in the following year, which authorized districts, towns, villages or cities to purchase text-books for the use of the public schools, retaining the ownership of the books and loaning or otherwise furnishing them- to the pupils. In IST'ff the reports showed that 267 districts had purchased books under this act; 137 districts loaned the books, and 130 sold them to the pupils. These numbers have steadily increased from year to year until, in 1892, there are 3i,525 districts which have adopted a list of text-books: 2,258 purchase books; 1,048 loan them, and 1,250 sell them to pupils. Several of the cities do likewise. The system has thus far met with favor, and is gradually becoming more prevalent. H. R. Pattengill in Report of Superintendent of Public Instruction, Michigan, 1898, pp. 290-296. Now as to the second proposition, compulsory free text-books: If these people are really anxious to save the poor man's money by uniformity of text-- books, why not expend just a little more sympathy and help him still more by making text-books free? This is the logical outcome of free education. Let the well-to-do and the property of the district pay for the books. Free text- books is the cheapest of all plans for furnishing books. It has every advan- tage that can be claimed for uniformity, and none of its dangers and defects. Competition is free and the best books may be had at the lowest rates. The poor mover, of whom so much is made by the friends of uniformity, does not even have to move his books and run the risk of losing them. His children and all others have books to use the first day of school. If a subject is completed in the middle of the term, the class is not made to waste time till the close of the term because the teacher is afraid to ask for another book, but the books are all at hand, and the change is made with no trouble. The cost to districts is less than by any other plan. See the statistics compiled from Michigan districts, both rural and city, which have worked under the plan for years. The average annual cost per pupil for text-books under the free text-book plan is but 47 cents. Think of it! In rural dis- tricts having 30 pupils, the entire cost per year for text-books is less than $15, only about half of the primary money which such district receives from the general government and from the state. And yet we find taxpayers object- ing to it! In Wisconsin, where an optional free text-book law has been in operation about the same time as in Michigan, nearly all the districts have adopted it. In Michigan, where we have had an optional free text-book law for nearly ten years, something fewer than 400 districts up to June 1898, had adopted the plan. Why is Michigan so conservative? The districts adopting the law are cities, and country districts mostly in the northern part of the State. The conservative area is in Southern Michigan, where the rural schools are filled with the children of tenants. Northern Michigan has more of the spirit of our pioneers. The spirit opposing free text-books opposed the abolition of the old rate-bill. It is the spirit of the selfish prayer : " Lord, bless me and my wife, my son John and his wife, us four and no more, amen." Eepoet of School Book Investigation 119 The logical step is from optional free text-books to compulsory free text- books. Massachusetts found after eleven years of optional free text-books, that there were certain corporations and rural districts so seliish or careless that they could not come under the provisions of a law which proved so beneficent to the schools. Her legislature therefore passed a, compulsory free text-book measure, and for sixteen years she has rejoiced under the system. No state or district after a careful trial ever gives up free text- books. E. J. TovMsend in " Education," May 1891, vol. 11, pp. 558, 559. The average usable age of a text-book, may justly be estimated to be four years. Ex-Supt. Gass of this state is my authority for saying that the average cost per year for supplying a pupil with the necessary text-books under the individual ownership system is two dollars. If the books furnished this one pupil were afterward to be used by at least three others, the cost per year would be reduced to fifty cents. This financial advantage would be con- siderably increased by the fact that public ownership of text-books affords the opportunity of buying in large quantities and directly from the publishers, thus saving to the community the profits of middle-men and local dealers. The record of schools where it has been put into successful operation veri- fies this conclusion. Supt. Akers of Iowa admits that while La Crosse, Wisconsin, where the free text-book system is in vogue, furnished her pupils with books during an entire year at a cost of twenty-three cents per capita, the neighboring city of Dubuque in his own state was obliged to pay from two to five dollars per capita. Secretary Dickinson of the Massachusetts State Board of Education estimates the reduction in cost of books and school supplies to be forty per cent, under the new free text-book law of 1884. Under this same plan, Orono, Me., furnished her pupils with their books for 1879 at twenty-six cents per capita. In Hartford, Vermont, for five years, the average cost per pupil was thirty-two cents; in Lewiston, Me., for five years, fifty per cent, of the cost under the old system; in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, for four years, sixty-six cents; in Salisbury, Connecticut, for three yeas, fifty- seven, fifty-nine and thirty-five cents, respectively; in Fall River, Massa- chusetts, during ten years, sixty-four cents; and in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, and Saginaw, Michigan, it has been estimated at fifty cents. The cost of books and school supplies together, furnished by the city of Boston, was for 1888, seventy-one cents for each pupil. In Philadelphia for many years it has ranged from eighty cents to one dollar, and in Jersey City, from fifty cents to one dollar and twenty-five cents. It is not these few cities alone, but many other cities, towns and rural districts of Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Wisconsin and California, that testify to the economy of the free text-book plan. Editorial in "Elementary School Teacher," May 1913, vol. 13, p. 416. The Journal of Lansing, Mich., has been carrying on a campaign of educa- tion of the people of that city in favor of free text-books. The following table, which is quoted from the issue of March 15, may be of interest to those who are gathering information regarding the actual cost of text-books. The State Journal has gone into the question of the average cost per year for each child in cities using free text-books. It has received communications direct from members of the school boards in these cities and these show that the average cost in free text-books cities is 55 cents. 120 New York Depaktment of Efficiency and Economy A table follows which sets forth the average cost a year for each child: Battle Creek, all grades $0.66 Negaunee, all grades 48 Flint, all grades 75 Holland, eight grades 50 Owosso, eight grades 43 Muskegon, eight grades 40 Saginaw, all grades 53 Sault Ste. Marie, all grades 90 Grand Haven, eight grades 33 Cheboygan, eight grades 43 Alma, all grades 69 Menominee, eight grades 56 Detroit, eight grades , 40 Average cost $0.55 The general problem of text-books is under vigorous discussion in all parts of the country. It is said that the book companies are beginning to feel the effects of state legislation which provides for the local printing of school- books. The labor unions have taken a great deal of interest in the general problem of the making of school books and many citizens have written pro and con with regard to the desirability of furnishing text-books at public expense. There seems to be no doubt in the minds of most of the editorial writers that the cost of text-books is a subject of large importance in public-school economy. Report of Committee of California Council of Education. " Sierra Educational News," vol. 8, pp. 333, 334. The free text-book question is not new. Free texts have been required in Massachusetts since 1884, in Maine since 1889, in New Hampshire since 1890, and in Nebraska and Delaware since 1891. Many cities and districts have been providing free text-books for more than half a century, Philadelphia being a notable example. In twenty-six of our states there have been enacted free text laws providing either that districts may provide free text-books or that they must do so. Wherever the plan has been tried, it has met with general success. The cost of free text-books varies considerably but the variation seems to be due not to the cost of individual books but to the number and quality and variety of books purchased. The prices paid for free text-books is very uniform, rarely departing from ten per cent discount on publisher's net prices. The cost for text-books in the elementary schools varies from 35 cents to $1.00 per pupil per year. In cities and districts giving free texts in both elementary and high schools the cost varies from 60 cents to $1.60 per pupil per year. The first year of introduction of free texts would cost more. Here is a table giving only a small number of representative cities selectee from the large list reporting to us. We give from the lowest to the highest cost. Elementary Text-Books only: Saginaw, Michigan 54 cents per pupil per year. Omaha, Neb Less than one dollar per pupil. LaCrosse, Wis 60 cents per pupil per year. St. Louis, Mo 38 cents per pupil per year. Harrisburg, Penn 38 cents per pupil per year. Chester, Penn About $1.00 per pupil per year. Report of School Book Investigation 121 Both Elementary and High School Books: Des Moines, Iowa. About 70 cents per year per pupil. Concord, N. H. $1.60 (includes supplies also) per pupil per year. New Haven, Conn. Less than $1.00 per pupil per year. Worcester, Mass. 80 cents per pupil per year. Newark, N. J. About $1.25 per pupil per year. Free high school texts alone cost from $1.00 to $2.65 per pupil per year. The states having free text-book laws are divided about evenly between those providing compulsory free texts, and those providing optional plana. Report of Georgia School Book Investigating Committee to State Legislature, 1914, pp. 12, 13. Perhaps, also, it is due the General Assembly to give the results of our effort to find, approximately at least, about the amount of money expended for school books in this State, especially since many widely divergent esti- mates and statements on this subject have been given to the public. So far as the elementary schools are concerned the sworn figures of the dealers are to the effect that the total sales for the regular adopted texts during the past ten years are a little less than $150,000 annually. Some effort has been made to check these figures and there were selected for this purpose the counties of Habersham, Schley, and Early and the figures given appear to corroborate the previous conclusion. Not only so, but testimony has been secured from the country as a whole, other states, and cities at this point. The report of the United States Commissioner of Education shows twenty millions of pupils in the schools of this country and the total expenditure of not quite seven million dollars for school books (Volume 11, 1912, page 17), thus confirming the Georgia figures. In Pennsylvania, for instance, the books are bought by Boards of Education and furnished free to the children; the law there requires under such circumstances, a complete report, of the cost of the books thus furnished. Since the books are free any variation would naturally be that more of iooks would be used and the expenditure would be correspondingly greater in Pennsylvania than in Georgia, to say nothing of the fact that the former state is larger and has more per capita wealth. State Superintendent, N. C. Schaeffer, gives the enrollment of pupils in Pennsylvania, for the year ending June 30, 1913, as 1,343,055 and the cost of text-books for these pupils as $1,157,930.27. The average cost per pupil in that State is, therefore, 86.2 cents; note also that the Pennsylvania law requires free books furnished for high schools and normal schools. High school books are always more- expensive. It is plainly true, therefore, that the cost of books for the elementary grades in Pennsylvania as well as Georgia would be much less than 86 cents per capita each year. Furthermore, another proof as to the cost comes from our own State. The City of Fitz- gerald has for some years been furnishing the text-books free to the pupils. Superintendent Ritchie writes that the cost for that city for 1913 was less than 74 cents per capita and regretfully we know that it is much less than this on the average for the country child, just as indicated by the figures noted above by the dealers. The City Boards of Education are always more insistent upon a liberal supply of books and other educational material for their pupils — some, perhaps, with not enough attention to economy. It is true, however, that there is much loss to the child from error in the opposite direction and that the argument is decidedly in favor of taking into consid- eration the value of his time and the necessity for furnishing him with proper 122 New York Dbpaktmbnt of Efficiency and Economy tools with which to work. It is poor reasoning to prefer a saving of 5 cents on an inferior text-book on which a child must spend 6 months of time to a better one even at a greater cost. Henry J. Hilton, Statement before Education Committee of the Illinois Legis- lature, March 27, 1913. "Journal of Education," vol. 77, p. 369. A compilation from various sources indicates that the cost of text-books per pupil on the average throughout the country is not more than sixty to seventy cents per year. In the 1911 report of the United States Commissioaer of Education, page xxxiii, table 20, the total expenditure for text-books and other supplies is given as $6,264,000, of which $4,766,000 was spent in the North Atlantic division. Taking this division as a basis for estimating, because with the exception of a portion of New York State it is all free text-book territory, and taking from the same report the number of school pupils as about 4,000,000, deduct- ing 600,000 for the non-free text-book portion of New York State, it makes the cost for school books and supplies $1.20. But the same report, page 804, shows that in free text-books cities the supplies cost fully as much asi the text-books, leaving the cost of the text-books sixty cents per pupil. State of Ohio. — A pupil starting in the first grade, continuing throughout the eight grades, and purchasing every book new, would spend the following amounts for a standard set of books as listed with the state superintendent: — Primer $ .20 First reader 24 Second reader 30 Third reader 41 Fourth reader 50 Fifth reader 58 Elementary geography 50 Advanced geography 1 .03 United States history 83 Elementary grammar 33 Advanced grammar 50 Copy books 25 Possibly an elementary history at 50 a total of $6.17, or an average each year for the eight years of seventy-seven cents. But second-hand books would be numerous enough to reduce this average by at least twenty per cent, making the average sixty-two cents. State of Pennsylvania. — The report of the superintendent of public instruc- tion for 1911, page 11, gives the number of pupils as 1,286,000; the -cost of the text-books, $858,000, or a little under seventy cents per pupil. This includes both high school and elementary text-books. Detroit, Michigan. — The report of the board of education for the five years 1904^1909 gives the average cost of text-books per pupil as forty-eight cents. The high school-books are not included. St. Louis, Missouri. — A pamphlet issued by the board of education, dated February, 1912, page 19, gives the text-book cost per pupil for the previous year as thirty-one cents.

While all superintendents and principals see that indigent children at least must be provided ■ free, there is not one of them who does not in his heart deprecate the necessity for thus singling out the poor and calling attention to them. Deep and numerous moral evils arise from this practice. Nothing else so trains school children in falsehood and fraud; nothing else so destroys their honorable pride. Sensitive poor children are racked with pain carrying home urgent messages to their parents to purchase books and returning with refusals and pleas of poverty. So powerful is the temptation to falsify that great numbers of parents declare ■ themselves unable to pur- chase when with slight sacrifice they might do so. On the other hand, poor families of the better sort, ■ too proud to plead poverty, will deny themselves the necessaries of life in order to purchase, or, when this is wholly impossible, accept public books, begging that the fact may be concealed. The task of determining when a family is indigent is usually left to principals, which involves an additional evil. The difficulty of discrimination is so great that many principals give over all serious effort, passing out books, so long as they can get them, to all children who ask. Reckless provision for the indigent thus becomes more expensive than careful provision for all would be. Distinctions among students based on anything but scholarship are an evil. If any pupils are to have books free, all should be so provided, that there may be in school no difference between the children of the poorer and those of the richer families. When in 1806 New York city established free schools 124 New York Dbpaetment of Efficiency and Economy and adopted free books for the pupils therein, one of the reasons for the latter enactment was " to guard against invidious distinctions among pupils on account of indigence." No children using their books free while others purchase are regarded in school as quite the peers of those others. To supply the poorest families with books and not to supply the well-to-do thus creates an insufferable class distinction in the schools. E. J. Townsend in "Education," May, 1891, vol. 11, p. 557. Unless the State removes the last barrier of poverty from education, by assuming the entire burden of expense, is it possible for the children of the poor man and the more fortunate children of the rich to meet upon an equal footing in the school-room and to receive alike the advantages of instruction? Supt. Patterson of New Hampshire very justly remarks that, " The patriotic purpose of the public school is universal education, but the object cannot be reached if we throw the expense of the text-books upon those who have nothing with which to buy. It is like offering the milk and honey of salva- tion, which the poor are invited to ' buy without money and without price,' in marble cathedrals and at golden altars, where only the rich can bow. Experience shows that from ten to twenty per cent, of the school population is excluded by this burden. But we are told that books are now free to the poor. Yes, and so is the county farm ; but they decline your charity, and I am glad of it. I honor the American citizen whose self-respect and parental affection will not allow his child to be stigmatized as a pauper in the knowledge of his companions. The sense of inferiority blights the germs of nobility and dries up the joy of youth at its source. A child should not be punished for its poverty in a democratic system of education. To humiliate scholars at every grade of their progress is a poor way to build up a manly and womanly character, fitted for the responsibilities of a free citizenship. The example is as hurtful, also, to the children of the rich as to those of the poor. It begets in them arrogance, conceit, and an impression of superiority unfavorable to the idea that character is to be measured by intellectual and moral stand- ards, rather than by accidental or social distinctions. Compulsory education and free text-books should stand together in a system of school laws." II. FREQUENT AND RADICAL TEXT-BOOK CHANGES George W. Loom/is in Report of Superintendent of Public Instruction, Michi- gan, 1898, pp. 200, 201. Sudden radical changes in any public institution are unwise. If our schools are going wrong, they should be turned about, to be sure, but not so suddenly as to impair the machinery. For a text-book board at a single stroke to compel a change from all the text-books now in use would cause a confusion and loss both unnecessary and unwarrantable. A teacher becomes acquainted with the text-books of her school; she learns the order in which the lessons are presented; she prepares plans and outlines for each lesson; she gathers stories and material to expand and clarify the text. Indeed, she is no longer the slave of the book; she closes it and stands before her class full of resources to execute the author's plan. I think we often fail to appreciate the many hours that the teacher spends in the preparation of material to amplify her text, or to recognize that such material is often vastly superior to the text itself. In a single Report of School Book Investigation 125 year it is proposed to require her to abandon all the lessons she has learned, all the outlines she has made, all the material she has gathered — or, what is equally difficult, to work them over to fit the plans of some other author. I say it is an unwarranted loss of energy to require a teacher to change all her texts in a single year. It is equally unjust to many pupils. The virtue of any text-book lies in the author's plan. A pupil who has begun arithmetic under some systematic plan cannot, at the end of the first year, be changed to some other plan without loss. Very likely the new system will not begin at all where the old one left off; it will presuppose the knowledge of facts he has never learned, and ignore principles and methods with which he is familiar. In our city schools a new system of texts is almost invariably begun in the primary grades, and gradually introduced as the grades advance. Superintendents have learned long since that it does not pay to swap horses in the middle of the stream. But there is a financial as well as a pedagogical loss involved in a whole- sale change of texts. The value of the text-books in the hands of the pupils in this state is variously estimated at from $20i0,00i0 to $4,000,000. The present law provides that these books must be taken in exchange at half price; but even this would entail a loss of not less than $100,000. Minnesota abandoned $150,000 worth of books when she adopted a state series, and Missouri admitted a loss of over $200,000 as the result of her first uniformity law, while both these states suffered shocks to their educational systems that they have not yet outgrown. Obviously such a loss would be less appreciable if distributed over several years, and indeed much of it could be avoided by anticipation. The law should clearly enumerate the different branches of study, not the different text-books, and then it should stipulate that changes in not more tiian three or four of these branches should be made in any one year. III. CONDITIONS AND MOVEMENTS OF EARLY TIMES Variety Versus tTniformity of Text-Books Randall's " Common School System of the State of New York," 1851, p. IBS. The Books of Elementary Instruction. — It is believed that there are none now in use in our schools that are very defective; and the difference between them is so slight, that the gain to the scholar will not compensate for the heavy expense to the parent, caused by the substitution of new books with every new teacher; and the capriciousness of change which some are apt to indulge on this subject, cannot be too strongly or decidedly resisted. Trustees of districts should look to this matter when they engage teachers. One consequence of the practice is, the great variety of text-books on the same subject, acknowledged by all to be one of the greatest evils which afflicts our schools. It compels the teacher to divide the pupils into as many classes as there are kinds of books, so that the time which might have been devoted to a careful and deliberate hearing of a class of ten or twelve, where all could have improved by the corrections and observations of the instructor, is almost wasted in the hurried recitations of ten or a dozen pupils in separate classes; while in large schools, some must be wholly neglected. Wherever the superintendents find this difficulty existing, they should not fail to point out its injurious consequences, and to urge a remedy by the adoption of uniform text-books as speedily as possible. To accomplish this, let the trustees, under the advice of the teacher, inspectors and superintend- 126 New Yoek Depaktment or Efficiency and Economy ents, determine what text-books shall be used in each Study, and require every child thereafter coming to the school to be provided with the designated books. This very desirable uniformity may, perhaps, be facilitated by ex- changes between different districts, of the books that do not correspond with those in general use, for such as do. For instance, in one school the great majority of spelling books may be those of Webster with some of Marshall's, while the latter may predominate in another district in which there are also several of Webster's. In such cases, an exchange of the different books between the two would obviously be mutually beneficial. The superintendents might assist in the execution of such an arrangement by noting the -propor- tions of the various books in the different schools. Steam's " Columbiwn History of Education in Wisconsin,'' pp. 3, 4. One great difficulty in the way of the fullest success of our common schools has arisen from the diversity of text-books. This was, of course, most notice- able in the early years, when schools were Scattered and isolated, and the books brought by children of Immigrant families from a score of other states were the only ones available. In the state superintendent's report for 1854' one may note the reports from towns in all parts of the state, showing the variety of text-books in the school. " The books most used comprise a list of fifteen different spelling books, eighteen readers, ten geographies, fifteen arithmetics and twenty grammars, and it is believed that if all the school books in use were known, they would comprise a list nearly as extensive as that reported in Connecticut a few years ago, which in the five studies named included the works of 191 different authors." Similar complaints were made year after year, by teachers and superin- tendents, of the unnecessary multiplication of classes and consequent loss of time to the teacher, and, by the parents, of the high price and frequent changes of books. Occasionally, towns or districts purchased all the books needed for their schools, thus securing a considerable discount, and cheapening the cost to the parents, but no concerted or general action was taken to secure either lower prices or uniform series of books in different towns. "District School Journal of the State of New York," August 1845, vol. 6, pp. 89, 90. Besides the loss of time both to teachers and scholars, the increased expense to parents, and incalculable embarrassment to teachers, there is one evil, not inferior to either of these, which, in our estimation, has been overlooked or too lightly appreciated by most of those who have essayed to treat upon this subject; and that is, the deleterious consequences which must inicvitably ensue to the government and discipline of the school. All agree that government is one of the most essential qualifications of a teacher, that " Order is Heaven's first law," and that without it, no government can flourish, no neighborhood can be happy, and certainly no school can prosper. But how, we would ask in the name of common sense, can good order be established or successfully maintained in a school, where the teacher's mind is constantly perplexed with a multiplicity of recitations from a variety of text-books, so numerous that he is obliged to divide his school into five or ten times the necessary number of classes, and to hurry from one exercise to another from the commencement to the close of his school, without being able to allow himself scarcely a moment's time for explanations or demonstrations. In a majority of our Rbpokt of School Book Invest^igatiok 127 schools at least three times as many recitations are daily crowded upon the teacher as he is able to hear and explain in a profitable manner; and in the hurry and confusion which must result from his being thus overtaxed with labor, the pupils will of course be oftener disturbed and less disposed to study, and they will consequently be more inclined to resort to some species of amusement to while away the time and increase the confusion; and the teacher, by being thus constantly embarrassed for want of time to perform his duties properly, relaxes in his discipline, and it is not strange that he becomes irritable and morose in his manners. Could we succeed in introducing a, uniformity in all the text-books used, and thus enable the teacher so to classify his scholars as to have one-third, one-fourth or one-fifth of his school upon the recitation bench at a time, at least one-half of his labor in preserving order would be obviated. The task of governing his school would then be rendered comparatively easy, and he would be enabled to demonstrate clearly the subject of each lesson, thereby greatly diminishing the number of superficial scholars, and rendering his instruction doubly profitable. Steam's " Columbian History of Education in Wiseonsi/n," p. 487. Rev. A. M. Badger was the teacher during the summer of 1843; he had been a Methodist preacher previous to coming to Madison, and occasionally occupied the pulpit during the few months of his sojourn here. He had from twenty-five to thirty scholars. Text-books were as varied as the colors in Joseph's coat, in all of these early schools. They were such books as the settlers had brought into the territory~with them, or as some Eastern friend chose to forward when an indefinite request would be sent to the old home to ship " so many arithmetics," or " so many spelling books," to meet the wants of the growing population. It caused, therefore, no inconsiderable flurry when Mr. Badger attempted to inaugurate something like textual uni- formity. He issue a mandate that the scholars were to come armed, on a certain day, with Smith's arithmetic. As there chanced to be more copies of Adams's arithmetic in the school than any other one variety, the order was regarded as smacking of despotism. It was decided as a bad precedent to allow the teacher to dictate the kind of text-book to be employed. Never- theless, Mr. Badger quelled the rebellion and came off with banners flying, not only securing the supremacy of Smith, but carrying other changes which brought about a fair degree of uniformity. Plan and Effort for Uniformity Report of County Superintendent of Schools of Albany County, New York, in " District School Journal," 1844, vol. 5, pp. 17, 18. An effort has been made, in conjunction with the town superintendents, to secure uniform, suitable and cheap books. Lists have been printed and posted up in the several school rooms, and the teachers have been directed, that whenever new books are needed, those of the list should be brought. The sub- ject has been brought before the people of the different towns, and an unani- mous wish expressed at every meeting that the books should be introduced and kept in the schools. The board of supervisors adopted the following resolution on this subject. " On motion of Mr. Pruyn, "Resolved, That the board of supervisors deem the measures adopted by the county superintendent to secure uniform text-books, of great importance 128 New Yokk Depaetment of Efficiency and Economy to the prosperity of the schools, as in this manner the labors of the teacher will be made more efficient, while the expense of schooling will be much lessened." " District School Journal of the State of New York," Jwimary 1, 1S42, vol. 2, p. 52. The sleepless activity of authors and booksellers will ever triumph over the passive resistance of any recommendation, and render absolute uniformity throughout this great state utterly impracticable. And we doubt whether, if practicable, it would be desirable; for such is the diversity of origin, habit, taste, and attainments, in different sections, that the same books could not be well adapted to the wants and wishes of all. Such an uniformity might cheapen school books — though even this is doubtful, as competition, and not monopoly, reduces prices — but it is not important to the well being of the schools. The evil complained of is, not that different class books are in use in Suffolk and Chenango, in Clinton and Tioga, but that in many of our schools there are nearly as many different authors as pupils, while some " greatly improved work " is forced into use every succeeding year. And for this we would find a remedy, that the parent may be relieved from a needless and burdensome tax, and the school made susceptible of that classification which alone can prevent a deplorable waste of the time and zeal of both pupil and teacher. Assuming, then, that nothing can or ought to be done without the full consent of the trustees of the several schools, and that the object to be attained, is not absolute uniformity throughout the state, but in each school, and, if possible, in all the schools of the township and its county, we respect- fully suggest the following remedy to the consideration of the friends of general education. Let a general list of text-books be made out by the State Superintendent, and kept in the department at Albany. Let this list comprise all the books he may consider adapted to the wants of the schools, and transcripts of it with the prices annexed to the several books, be transmitted to 'the different Deputies, with instructions to call meetings of the inspectors of the different towns in their counties, to agree on the class books of the list they will recommend to their several schools. This county list, the Deputies, in their regular visitation of the districts, can submit to the trustees, or to a general meeting of the inhabitants of the district ; and if adopted, it should be posted up in the school-room as the law of the school. If the list thus recommended by the Deputy, be in whole or in part rejected, let him resort to the general list, and with the advice of the trustees, draft other books in their stead. The class books having been thus determined, the teachers can be directed to see, as new books are wanted, that those of the list are bought. In this manner the motley collection that now encumbers the school will gradually slough off, and uniform good books take their place, to the great relief of both teacher, pupil, and parent. Petitions to the legislature of New York New York Assembly Journal, 1818, pp. 526, 758. Mr. Havens, from the committee on colleges, academies and common schools, to whom was referred the petition of the supervisors of the county of Albany, and sundry other persons, praying for the enaction of a law, directing the purchase of a late publication, entitled " every man his own Eepobt of School Book Investigation 129 teacher, being an introduction to arithmetic," adapted for the use of schools established on the lancasterian system, and contemplating the distribution of two copies of the same to each school in this State, the amount in value thereof to be deducted from each county's quota of the school fund, reported : That they have turned their attention to the subject, with all that zeal and deliberation which the important business of educating the youth of our country demands. The committee believe that the publication in question, possesses much intrinsic merit, and is well worthy of the high commendations which accom- pany the petition, from many distinguished scholars ; but whilst the committee thus subscribe their opinions to the tribute of applause which has been bestowed on this production, they are not prepared to say how far the same is calculated to introduce successfully into our common schools, and to render familiar and intelligible the principles on which the lancasterian system is founded. It rather appears to the committee, that a book embracing the first rudi- ments of education, in the hands of instructors conversant with the lancas- terian plan, would be a surer and more effectual means of introducing a system confessedly entitled to a decided preference to any other, on account of the expedition and facility with which it assists the efforts of the pupil in attaining the elementary principles of literature; its utility would then be obvious and its introduction unimpeded. The committee forbear to go into detail, as to the peculiar merits of the arithmetic in question, having after deliberate consideration arrived at the conclusion that it would be improper, or at least premature at this time, to take from the school fund any appropriation for the purchase of it. Though they believe it to be a book of that character as to insure from individual patronage that encouragement which is never denied to industrious and meri- torious authors, by an enlightened and liberal community : the committee, therefore^ recommend the adoption of the following resolution, viz: Resolved, That the petitioners have leave to withdraw their said petition. Report to New York Assembly, Legislative Documents of 1830, vol. 4, No. 431, pp. 1, 8, 9. The committee on colleges, academies and common schools, to whom were referred the several petitions of M. R. Bartlett, and of sundry inhabitants of the counties of Oneida, Herkimer and Montgomery, upon the subject of the Common School Manual, compiled by said Bartlett; and also the remon- strance of the teachers of schools in the city of New York, upon the same subject, respectfully submit the following: REPORT — The petitioners in this case pray that a law may be passed to authorise the purchase of a copy of the said Manual for the use of each of the school districts and of the inspectors of common schools in- the several towns in this State; and also to levy a tax of two cents upon every gaHon of distilled spirits manufactured or sold in the State, for the purpose of creating " i school book fund," the interest of which to be annually applied to the pur- chase of the said ilanual for gratuitous^ distribution throughout the State. Against the passage of such a law the remonstrants protest. It will be at once perceived, that the various questions presented in the sub- ject of these memorials are, in the principles they embrace, extremely import- ant; and, in their character and consequences, deeply interesting to the people 5 130 New York Department op Efficiency and Economy of this State. * * * Admitting the Avorlc in question to liave none of the defects suggested, and that it possesses all the peculiar and superior merit its compiler and its friends claim for it, still the committee could not recommend the passage of the law asked for. If the work have the merit pretended, it will make its way into general use without the aid of any legislative act for that purpose; if it have not such merit, then most certainly would it be wrong to force it into general use by any such legislative act. But even supposing it to have the merit claimed for it — that it is decidedly superior to any other work of the kind — still the committee are of opinion that it would be neither wise nor just to adopt it to the exclusion of all others: For even although this may now be superior to any other work extant, yet, in this age of improvement, who would by law limit the point of perfection? Who would deny to us, upon this great interest of our State and country, the lights of time, and the benefits of experience; or who so hardy as to pre- dict that mind, if left free and unproseribed upon this subject, may not soon improve even upon the work in question? If this be so, would it not be unwise to fasten upon the State, by a legislative act, and at an expense so enormous as that would involve, any system of instruction, however perfect it might seem, or however superior to all others, at the time, it might be acknowledged to be? Instead of promoting, this could not fail ultimately to sacrifice the great interest in question. But your committee are of opinion that the passage of the law asked for, would be as unjust as it would be impolitic. It would lead necessarily to the sacrifice of the interests of those numerous authors and publishers whose works would be thus proscribed, and rendered valueless. These interests are often the fruits of a. life of industry and laborious study. They constitute the entire wealth and sole dependence of the numerous individuals immedi- ately concerned therein. As such, they are entitled to the equal protection of government. It has been well observed by the Superintendent of Common Schools, in his late able annual report to this House, that " the greatest experience, and much of the best talent of the country are enlisted in this business, and the fruits of their labors are constantly giving them new claims to the approbation of the public." The interests of these numerous, respectable, and useful individuals, should be neither wantonly, unnecessarily, nor uselessly sacrificed. Sacrifices of individual interest, indeed, even to eflTect objects of great and acknowledged public good, should be made as rarely as possible, and even then with extreme caution; but never to promote individual benefit. The committee have been unable to perceive, either in the petition in this case, or in the work to which it relates, any good or sufficient reason, for the sacrifices, both public and private, which the granting of the prayer of the petition would necessarily involve. Memorial of 271 Citizens of Rochester to the Legislature of New York, Assembly Documents of 1846, vol. 4, No. 101. The education of the mass is not to be secured by reading merely. This great end can only be effectually attained by a system which shall create and maintain a uniformity in methods of teaching, and in text-books. The first of these has already claimed the attention of the Legislature; and the establishment of a State Normal School is the result. The second still con- tinues to perplex and embarrass the efTorts of those who desire the greatest practicable benefits to result from the munificence of the government. We are constrained to believe that a radical defect exists in the present system of supplying text-books for the use of our district schools; which, however, Report of School Book Investigation 131 may be remedied without impairing the method of instruction now in a fair way of improvement, and at the same time afford a powerful auxiliary in the advancement of those who are the recipients of public favor by means of the State funds. It is the opinion of your petitioners that the class-books of like grades throughout the State should be entirely similar ; that a competent board should be appointed by State authority to determine and recommend what these books shall be; that they should be 'publislied in such a way as to insure cheapness and durability, and be provided for the use of all pupils at the lowest practicable rates. By this system would, in a great measure, be obviated the great difficulties which are now experienced in the frequent changes of these books, and the often increased and useless expense of pro- curing them, arising from their scarcity, or the monopoly of the trade in them. A great difficulty also often arises in establishing an uniformity of text- books from the frequent changes that take place in boards of education and school superintendents. From the great number of authors and publishers interested in the sale of different books, extraordinary efforts are sometimes used to bring about such changes at elections as will favor particular interests. Before one set of books is fairly tested, another is introduced; and tlius a change continually occurs, very expensive to parents and injurious to the great cause of Education. For the accomplishment of the desired end, we would respectfully suggest that the Library Fund, now appropriated to the purchase of reading books for school districts, be applied, for a time, in providing I)ooks for the "free use of the schools in the manner above mentioned; provided that shall be deemed necessary to accomplish the object, though we believe the friends of common school education would justify the Legislature in making additional appropriations for this purpose. IV. STATE UNIFORMITY AND ADOPTIONS VERSUS LOCAL UNIFORMITY AND ADOPTIONS An Early View of the Question Putnam's Primary and Secondary Education in Michigan, 1904, pp. 168, 169. In his report for 1877, Superintendent Tarbell published an extended table 'showing the text-books used in the different departments of the graded schools, and also showing the condition of affairs in the rural schools by extracts from the reports of the township superintendents, the township system of supervision having been reestablished. It was almost universally agreed that the diversity of text-books was one of the most serious hindrances to progress in the schools. Mr. Tarbell discussed somewhat fully the causes of the existing conditions in the country schools, and asked, " What shall be done about it 1 " He called attention to the fact that the law was precisely the same, in this matter, for the graded and the ungraded schools, and yet the graded- schools generally had uniformity, while the ungraded did not. His explanation of this was very simple, brief, and correct. He said: "The graded school boards dare, and the district school boards dare not comply with the law. In the latter case the board being but few in numbers, being the neighbors, and desirous of being the friends of those affected by their action, they shrink from doing their duty as officers, lest it should affect their relations as men; for some, perhaps most, will almost inevitably be displeased at their action." But, to prevent woeful waste of money and 132 New Yokk Depabtment of Efficiency and Economy effort, some uniformity must be had. What shall it be? State, county, township, district ? " A State system of -uniformity, he declared, was a most dazzling scheme. A national uniformity would be more brilliant still. In respect to a State system of uniformity Mr. Tarbell said : " Its diffi- culties lie in the centralization of undue power in the hands of a few, the great liability to bribery and the certain charges of it, the extent of change inevitable, its inequality, some_ books being selected which are extensively used in certain parts of the State and very little elsewhere, the difficulty of selecting books adapted to the wants of all. As Superintendent of public instruction I should not wish a committee to select books for the State to be constituted without including myself, nor should I dare for the sake of my good name to act on such a committee." Origins of the Demand for State TJniformity B. B. Pattengill in Report of Superintendent of Public Instruction, Michigan, 1898, p. 295. The call for uniformity of text-books comes almost entirely from a desire for cheaper books; nine-tenths of the time quality is not considered. There are to-day five or six large and flourishing text-book houses; besides as many more most excellent smaller ones. Competition in text-book making was never so active as now, and it is not more active in any other industry. As in everything else, this has not failed either to reduce the price or improve the quality of text-books, or to do both. If the people would be content to use the same kind of text-books that were in use forty years ago, the text-book companies would furnish them at one-fourth the price paid for them then. In this, as in harvesters and sewing machines, the people will not have the old at any cost. They demand the improved books and in open competition they get them. Kansas, by a recent uniformity law, has just had loaded upon her a United States history which failed utterly in open competition to get a standing anywhere. Dutton and Snedden's "Administration of Public Education in the United States." Revised Edition of 1912, pp. 212,. 213. At the bottom of the widespread demand for uniformity over large areas, and for a fixed period during which books may not be changed, have been several motives. The shifting of population from one district to another has been an active factor, for with purely local adoption families moving into new districts were frequently obliged to buy new outfits of school-books before their children could attend the local schools. In regions where stock- raising and agriculture on rented land have developed on a large scale, this condition has affected a large number of people. Another factor has been the acknowledged failure of purely local boards in dealing with the problem of selection. In the competition to have books chosen, agents of various publishers have brought to bear all kinds of pressure, legitimate and illegiti- mate, and local boards have not always been able to make the selections which were best for the schools, or have made selections which have entailed undue expense on patrons. Undoubtedly, too, it was found in many states that the prices of books were being raised to an unreasonable figure by publishers and retailers, and this suggested the fixing of the price by state or county authority. To a certain extent this was at the bottom of the state publica- tion scheme of California, for it was generally believed that state publication would greatly affect the price of school books. Eepobt of School Book iNVESTiGATioisr 133 Relations of State Tlniformity to Free Furnishing and Licensing Plans E. P. Cuhherley in " Monroes Cyclopedia of Education," 1913, vol. 5, pp. 577, 578. While the cost of text-books is not particularly heavy, and constitutes but a very small proportion of the total cost of education, the fact that the cost has fallen on the parent instead of being paid from the general taxes, has made it seem of extraordinary importance. Like the old " fuel tax," once so common, the cost for text-books has seemed a heavy burden to bear. Parents have objected, in particular, to the necessity of buying a, new set of text-boolis for their children when moving to another district. The uniformity within a school has been accepted by parents as desirable, and they have then either raised the question as to why uniformity between schools is not also desirable, or why they should have to pay for text-books at all. In the older and more thickjy settled portions of the country, where schools can be main- tained more economically, and where wealth is greater, the text-book charge has been absorbed by the public, and free text-books have been provided; but in the poorer and more thinly settled sections, where the charge for text-books could not be absorbed so easily, state or county uniformity has been substi- tuted in an effort to reduce the cost. In all of the Southern states except five, county uniformity is the rule; while in the others, and in most of the Western states, state uniformity is the rule. One state, California, has also undertaken in addition to uniformity, the very costly experiment of printing its own text-books, and now proposes to provide them free. For the selection of these uniform series of text-books, the different states requiring them have also created county or state text-book commissions (q.v.), for the purpose not only of selecting the books but of making the proper contracts with the publishers. To guard against too high prices, many states have fixed the maximum prices which may be paid, and price regulation has come to be a natural accompaniment of state uniformity. A common clause inserted in these contracts is one providing that the prices to be paid by the state adopting shall not exceed the prices in any other state, then or there- after, and that if lower prices are subsequently granted to any other state, the same must apply in the contracting state also. In Ohio another form of contract is found. Instead of adopting one series of books, the state merely approves a number of books on each subject, and fixes the price at which each book must be sold, and local school boards may designate agents to sell them, at not over 10 per cent profit. Within recent years, a movement looking to the purchase of the books by the district, which then loans them to the pupils free of charge, has made marked headway. In some states the pro- vision of free text-books has been made optional, by vote of the people, while in others it has been made obligatory. In still other states the provision of free text-books for indigents has been made a requirement, and in these states the question of making them free for all pupils keeps coming up from time to time. * * * As long as text-books must be purchased by the parents, state uni- formity is desirable from the public point of view, but once free text-books are provided, the chief reason for general uniformity passes, and the many educational advantages of liberty in selection now make general uniformity undesirable. The general uniformity plan is more costly than local adoptions, because no series of books ever adopted is equally well adapted to the needs of all schools, and the state books have to be supplemented by the purchase of many other books. Different needs are presented by the different parts of a state, and by different counties and cities within the same state, and the ability of cities and communities to make progress is often hampered by the 134 New York Department op Efficiency and Economy Use of books badly suited to their educational needs. A live school system is a growing school system, and a good course of study is a course of study in evolution. No set of men, however wise, can select a uniform series of textbooks suited to the needs of all communities within the state, even in the fundamental school subjects alone, because no such single series exists, and a state should not regard it as one of its functions to prescribe too narrowly or too rigidly the tools with which work is to be done. One strong argument for uniformity lies in the reduction in cost, but this may be obtained without uniformity. The state can approve books for adop- tion and fix both sale and exchange prices, as is done in Ohio, leaving com- munities free to select such books as they desire from the approved list, and at the prices fixed by the state. This leaves the way open for the different administrative units to adopt the books best suited to their needs, and for a gradual change as books are worn out and as new books appear. Cities, under city superintendents of schools, certainly ought to be free to select the books they desire to use and furnish, while outside of cities, the unit of adop- tion should be the unit of supervision. In states using the county system of school administration (q. i>.) , and also in other states where the county superintendent or a county board of education looks after the interests of the schools of the county as a whole, the county is the natural unit for text-book uniformity. Symposium of Pros and Cons Lewis B. Avery in " Sierra Educational 'News," March 1913, vol. 9, pp. 216, 217. People generally do not appreciate the strong reasons existing against uni- formity of text-books in high schools. I do not believe a principal of an up-to-date high school can be found in the United States who would favor uniform text-books for the high schools of his state. Every principal who is endeavoring to fit his school to the life needs of the pupils is compelled to oppose uniformity. Not only are new subjects constantly appearing, but old subjects are being revised to fit life needs. If one of the newer books were to be required uniformly throughout the state, nine out of ten teachers would not know how to use it. If the old one were required, progress along modern lines would be impeded. Live teachers frequently prefer a variety of text-books, even in the same class. One book throughout the state would mean nothing less than a lock-step for the pupils of the state at a time when public demand is for more individual initiative and a larger freedom from treadmill uniformity. There are few modern subjects, the leading ideas of which can be contained between the covers of any one text-book, and a state whose children know but one is deprived of all that education that comes from the attrition among minds knowing different text-books. John W. Carr in " Report of National Educational Association," 1908, pp. 281, 282. I favor state uniformity of text-books in the required legal branches of the elementary schools. I believe that this uniformity should apply to city schools as well as town, village, and country schools. I offer two arguments in favor of uniformity of text-books in the elementary schools: First, the cost is less and the quality of the books not necessarily inferior. For several years I lived in Indiana where there was state uniformity of text-books in the elementary schools. Afterward I moved to Ohio where each Eepokt of School Book Investigation 135 board of education adopts its own textbooks for the elementary schools. I could not help noticing the difference in cost of text-books in Indiana compared with those in the city where I now reside. The advantage in each instance is in favor of state uniformity. Expressed in per cents., the advantage in cost in favor of state uniformity follows: Spelling book, 70 per cent., series in readers 137 per cent., series in arithmetic 14 per cent., series in language- grammar 18 per cent., series in geography 46 per cent.. United States history 28 per cent. In the case of the readers the series in use in the Ohio city contains eight books and the Indiana series but five, but on the whole, the Indiana books are as well suited for school use as the others. The number of books in each series in other subjects is the same — in some instances the books are identical. It is an easy matter to see that there is quite a differ- ence in cost to the people. But the first cost is not the only real difference. Every time a family •moves from one community to another in a state where there is not uniformity of text-books, a different set of books must be purchased. This is expensive business with no corresponding advantages. The argument is sometimes advanced that a state having uniform text-books does not have an opportunity to secure the best text-books. So far as my experience goes, I believe this argument to be fallacious. In Indiana, stand-- ard text-books were offered for adoption, the only difficulty being to secure standard first and second readers at ten and fifteen cents, respectively, as provided by the law. The second argument I present in favor of state uniformity of text-books is that it prevents agents of publishing houses interfering with local school affairs. The school book agents whom I have known compare favorably with gentlemen engaged in any other legitimate line of business. But human nature is human nature, and representatives of publishing houses are not always able to withstand the temptation to get this particular person elected on a local board of education or defeat that one, for the special advantage it will be to them at the next adoption of text-books. This interference I believe to be detrimental to the best interests of the schools, and furnishes one of the strongest arguments in favor of state uniformity of text-books in the elementary schools. In reference to high schools I do not think there is the same urgent need for state uniformity of text-books as in the grades. There is a far greater difference between the high schools in a state — rural, village, and city — than elementary schools. Yet I see no reason ^Iiy it would not be advan- tageous both from an educational and a financial standpoint, if there was uniformity in some of the high-school text-books, such for instance as algebra, geometry, and Latin. We are still in the experimental stage in reference to high-school texts in English, science, manual training, commercial subjects, and, to some extent, history also. For that reason I favor local adoption of such texts. Report of Superintendent of Public Instruction, Michiga-n, 1898, part 3, pp. 55, 56. Pending the passage of this law there was much discussion, pro and con, as to the desirability of state uniformity. The arguments adduced in its favor were as follows: 1. That it would reduce prices. 2. That by preventing too frequent changes of books, it would lessen expense and better the quality of work done. 136 New Tobk Department of Efficiency and Economy 3. That it would save much money to people who move from one district to another. 4. That it would aid in gradation and classification by reducing the number of texts, thus enabling the teacher to give better instruction. 5. That it provides for competent judges in making selection of books. The following arguments were presented against it: 1. That in the attempt to regulate prices, all state uniformity laws have a restrictive clause stipulating the maximum price, which often compels the selection of a book that is very much inferior to another costing but a trifle more. Thus under the Michigan law, if a speller is offered at 16 or 17 cents, it must be rejected by the commission even though far superior to one offered at 15 cents. 2. That if the framers of the bill really desired to aid the poorer class, which is most subject to frequent removals, they should at once adopt a compulsory free text-book law and thereby gain all the essential good that state uniformity gives without the objectionable features by which every uni- form law is hampered. Furthermore, under the uniform system most of the text-books now in use would be thrown out, and the interest on money thus wasted would supply all the books needed by this migratory class. In any event this class is small and quite largely supplied with free text-books under the law providing for indigent pupils. 3.' That good gradation can and has been secured by a uniform course of study and uniformity of examination tests, without a uniform law. 4. That the matter of competent judges is a grave question, since members of the commission must, in order to make a good selection, be wise as Solomon and versed in all the needs of every corner of a great Commonwealth, not to mention the chances such a law gives for bribery and political deals, by placing this selection in the hands of a small number. 5. That a uniform text-book law, by preventing the adoption of any new or improved book for a term of years, hinders progress, and by preventing com- petition, gives us inferior books; for the excellence of our present text-books has resulted from this very competition. 6. That the law centralizes power by selecting a few men to change the books in every district of the state at the expiration of a given period. The state has no better right to prescribe our text-books than to say what we shall eat or wear. The individualism and right of districts to control their own afl^airs is seriously interfered with, and district ownership and selection of books offers far greater advantages. " Sierra Educational News," June 1912, vol. 8, pp. 426-430. DO YOU FAVOR A UNIFORM SERIES OF TEXT-BOOKS FOR THE ELE- MENTARY SCHOOLS OF THE ENTIRE STATE OR LOCAL ADOPTIONS BY CITIES AND COUNTIES? WHY?, Is it not better to profit by the experience of others than to be led by the ramblings of either politicians or educational demagogues? The News believes that all the facts should be laid before the people of California. According to our friend, Senator Shanahan, the teachers of California are " consciously or unconsciously " agents of the " Book Trust " ! To- secure other evidence on the question of local adoption vs. state uni- formity the above query was submitted to prominent educators throuo-hout the nation. The evidence is brief, pointed, pithy. Every teacher and every other voter in California should read it. Note that many connect graft and Repoet op School Book Investigation 137 polities as common evils in states afflicted with state uniformity. Note — but here's tlie evidence. Eead it — then act on your own convictions. I favor local adoptions. — Nathan C. Schaeffer, State Supt. of Schools, Har- risburg, Pa. State uniformity is undemocratic. We are not a military despotism. — Henry Turner Bailey, North Scituate, Mass. I believe in local adoption because of the variations in local needs. — John F. Sims, Pres. State Normal School, Stevens Point, Wis. A uniform state series does not usually meet local needs and the publica- tion of such a series usually leads to politics and graft. — Wilson M. Shafer, City Supt. of Schools, Cripple Creek, Colo. I favor a uniform set of books for the state as we have here in Arizona. — G. A. Goggin, City Supt. of Schools, Morenci, Arizona. I do not favor a uniform series of text-books for the elementary schools of the entire state, as it gives too much of an opportunity for " graft." — Jas. E, Delzell, Sta.te Supt. of Schools, Lincoln, Nebraska. Local adoption creates competition and stimulates production of better text-books. — John 6. Thompson, Prin. State Normal School, Fitchburg, Mass. I favor a uniform series of text-books in the public schools throughout the state, cities of 100,000 being exempt. — L. R. Alderman, State Supt. of Schools, Salem, Oregon. A uniform series of text-books invariably means politics in school affairs and besides different books are needed in different sections of a state. — Katherine D. Blake, Treasurer, N. E. A., New York city. Experience has proved state uniformity a, potent source of corruption. State-wide uniformity does not meet local needs. — J. F. Thomas, Detroit, Mich. I would prefer adoptions by cities and counties, because a general State adoption for all schools lacks the flexibility necessary to meet local conditions and needs. — B. M. Watson, City Supt. of Schools, Spokane, Wash. I favor a uniform series. — Frank F. Heighway, Crown Point, Ind. I am in favor of the adoption by counties. We have tried State adoption, and it was so unsatisfactory that we are going back to the county adoption. — T. J. Coates, Richmond, Ky. I favor local adoptions by each school district. This gives freedom to secure the best books in the market. The very intelligent districts will set the pace for others. So it works in our State. — J. F. Keating, City Supt. of Schools, Pueblo, Colo. I favor local adoption by cities and counties. This enables each community to exercise the principles of home rule, which should prevail in the selection of textbooks. — C. G. Schulz, State Supt. of Schools, St- Paul, Minn. I believe in local adoptions. Avoids trickery on a large scale. No more reason for uniform books than for uniform food, clothing or religioii. — Walter H. French, 'Michigan Agricultural College, East Lansing, Mich. Local adoption would insure greater freedom for personal initiative and less temptation and opportunity for political graft. — W. A. Baldwin, Prin. State Normal School, Hyannis, Mass. I believe in having uniform text-books for the entire State; that has been and still- is our system here. The State board which adopts for an entire State is likely to be abler men than those which sit qn county or city boards. — W. D. Baker, City Supt. of Schools, Prescott, Arizona. I do not favor uniform text-books, as some communities need different books from those used in other sections. Cities should be permitted to select their own text-books. — Grace M. Shepard, State Supt. of Schools, Boise, Idaho. 138 New York Department of Efficiency and Economy I believe in local adoptions by cities and counties because each locality should be free to use the text-boolcs best suited to the working out of local conditions and needs. — Frank B. Cooper, City Supt. of Schools, Seattle, Wash. I am in favor of local adoptions because this gives legitimate freedom to local communities and at the same time restricts the pernicious activities of publishers under the system of state adoption. — Edward L. Elliott, Uni- versity of Wisconsin. I believe in free textbooks, of course, but do not believe that the State should publish them, nor that there should be State-wide adoption. County adoption for the country and town schools and city adoption for city schools are the only means of meeting the needs of the different schools and of keeping abreast of the advance in educational materials. — Geo. A. Brown, Editor School and Home Education, Bloomington, 111. I most decidedly favor the local adoption by cities of text-books. I cannot conceive any state board adopting a series which would be entirely satis- factory to all portions of the state, nor can I believe that the best interests of education would be served by forcing cities widely separated in distance and in their character of purpose to use the same text-book. — C. C. Chadsey, City Supt. of Schools, Denver, Colo. Our experience in Nebraska has made us believe that a uniform series of text-books for a whole state is not satisfactory. Situations are quite different in different portions of every state, and the selection of books by individual boards is likely on the wliole to be much freer from corrupt influences, than can be true of a selection by any state committee composed of a small number of men, while local needs and local conditions can be much better taken into account. — Geo. L. Towne, Editor Nebraska Teacher, Lincoln, Neb. I do not favor state uniformity but believe that the best results education- ally can be had from city and county adoptions. Every community has its own peculiar social and economic conditions to which the schools must con- form. Text-books as an important factor in efficient instruction must be adapted to local needs, just as .the course of study is. A set of books that is nearly ideal in a country school will hardly be as useful in a large city, and vice versa. — ■ Wm. C. Bruce, Asst. Editor American School Board Journal, Milwaukee, Wis. I favor local adoptions by cities and counties. It is impossible to find or to make text-books adapted to all the schools of an entire state in the first place, and in the second place if it could be done the personal equation of teachers could not be considered, and this is one of the important elements affecting the efficiency of their work. — Schuyler F. Herron, City Supt. of Schools, Winchester, -Mass. I do not favor a uniform series of text-books for the elementary schools. The text-books for rural schools are riot adapted for graded schools; further- more, certain teacliers can use one text far better than another. — Mason S. Stone, State Supt. of Schools, Montpelier, Vt. For some years we had a uniform system of text-books adopted by the state Board of Education for bpth high schools and elementary schools of the state. Eleven years ago we changed to county adoptions with a provision that districts maintaining a four year accredited high school might adopt their own text-books. At the .present time we have adoptions by thirty-nine county boards of education and by ninety-two districts maintaining a four-j'ear accredited high school. The present law is very much more satisfactory than the old law, both to teachers and to patrons. — Henry B. Dewey, State Supt. of Schools, Olympia, ■\\'ashington. Ebport of School Book Investigation 139 Our plan of requiring free text-books, but leaving the choice of books to each local committee, appears to work well since it provides for reasonable experimentation through which alone educational progress can be made. We do not find that this lack of uniformity of text-books acts to a disadvantage of the Individual pupil. Pupils go quite freely from one school system to another and it very rarely happens that there is anything more than a, very temporary disadvantage from the change. It is my opinion also that there is more likely to be a satisfactory condition surrounding the sale of text-books in the more open competition that follows local adoption. — Payson Smith, State Supt. of Schools, Augusta, Maine. I have never known a uniform series of text-books for a state to be an advantage to the state. The advantages of sucli adoption to a publishing house are so great that enormous amounts are spent to secure the use of certain books, and while the iinal choice may sometimes be an honest one, it is often known to be a corrupt one. But beyond. this, there is no state in the Union in which the best books for one locality are necessarily the best books for another locality. We have cities in this state where different text- books are used in schools filled largely with the children of foreigners and in other sections where the children come from different environment. Especially since vocational training has become so important a part of the school law curriculum, the needs of a school in a farming community are different -from those in a school in a manufacturing or a mining district. We never had a state adoption in New York and we have never wanted it. We are quite convinced here that text-books should be left to local adoption. — C. W. Bardeen, Syracuse, N. Y. I regard state-made uniform text-books as a device of the evil one. States were not organized for the purpose of making school- text-books and it is a fussy and impertinent interference with private rights and with the cause of good government for a state to engage in the manufacture of uniform text- books. It miglit just as well embark in the manufacture of uniform boots and shoes. For a state like California, with its very diversified populatioii and enormous area, to insist upon uniform text-books or uniform anything, in connection with schools and education, strikes me as the height of absurdity and a grave limitation on the development of excellence. It simply means holding everybody down to the level of the least competent. — Nicholas Murray Butler, President Columbia University. V. STATE PRODUCTION AND MANTJFACTUIIE Present Importance of the Subject William E. Chancellor in " School Journal," March 1914, vol. 81, p. 161. With California publishing state school books and Kansas just entering upon such publication, with Chicago making a speller of which the first edition is to be 175,000 copies, with New Orleans moving fast in the same direction, with the national government and many states and cities already publishing syllabuses of courses, pamphlets of methods, volumes on entertainments, holi- days, agriculture, schoolhouses and birds, and with bills in a dozen state legis- latures to establish state printing plants and resolutions in as many city boards and county commissions, the question as to wliat attitude every educator should take is immediate and practical. It is an issue between state socialism in four forms — nation, state, county and city — and private property. Merely calling government printing " state socialism " frightens no 140 New York Department of Efficiency and Economy sensible man or woman in these times; but it stirs every intelligent man and woman to close thinking. The issue is being raised; and educators cannot avoid it. There is not a school superintendent in America who can safely predict that not within a twelve-month will the question arise in his state or county or city. The TDnited States bureau of education may any day find a bill in Congress directing it to prepare some text-book for all the nation. Such a bill is not likely to pass; but for how many or for how few years the bureau is to be free from such a duty no man foreknows. The Chicago speller was compiled in short order by the city superintendent who indeed had many other things to do. A similar task may soon come to the United States commissioner of education. Editorial in " Xation," January 22, 1914, vol. 98, p. 73. For the State distribution of text-books, as a natural step in the pro- gramme of making education free, something may be said; but State entrance into the publishing business is a different matter. California's experience was denounced two years ago by the San Francisco Chronicle on the ground that " books printed at the State printery and sold at cost carry much higher prices than the same books are sold for in other States." She has now, during 1913, according to the State Printer, distributed 1,461,623 books at a cost of $316,000, or an average of about 22 cents each. This includes $87,371.52 paid in royalties to text-book companies and individuals. Mr. Charles H. Thurber, joining with certain newspapers in attacking the plan, has quoted figures of the United States Commissioner of Education to show that the average expenditure througliout the country is slightly above 60 cents per pupil annually. California will therefore have to show that not more than three books per pupil are consumed each year. It should seem this could be done, but it must be remembered that the State-published books are admittedly fiimsier than the old ones, and the purchase of some by the pupils ought to be encouraged. The matter is of growing national interest, for Kansas has apparently followed California, and other Western States are contemplating the step. Considerations other than economy must be taken into account, for in the development of the complex art of text-book-making much may be claimed for private competition and enterprise. Argumeiits for State Production Letter of a School Superintendent in " School Journal," February 1914, vol. 81, p. 137. The scholarly men and women of our school faculties are quite as able to write good books as are the authors of privately printed books. We would have competitions in manuscripts exactly as the publishers profess to do. Pull will never influence us in choosing a book. This will be a great advan- tage. Our committees of choice of manuscripts for printing can advise changes in the successful books and can revise the proofs. If these teachers of ours are fit to make syllabuses based upon Eastern books, they are quite fit to make the text-books themselves. I am not inclined to rest the case for city and state printing upon the grounds of economy. Perhaps we cannot save money. We surely can make books that will be of familiar aspect to us that will seem friendly to our teachers and pupils. Then we will have their authors right with us to inter- pret their own books, which is worth a deal. Repokt of School Book Investigation 141 State and city publication would clear away all labor troubles. The print- ing-shops' would be wholly upon the union basis, and the compositors and pressmen would be well paid and fairly treated. There would be no capital and labor controversy tp disturb the public mind. To this extent, at least, our schools would have peace. To our ambitious teachers the hope of public recognition as the authors of the state and city printed books wguld prove a powerful stimulus to broad and thorough scholarship and to literary skill. This would work as- a leaven to all the schools of state as well as of our city. The Ontario Plan Report of Georgia School Book Investigating Committee, 1914, pp. 16, 17. More frequently, than any other, however, what is known as the Ontario plan has been advanced as the best and most economical for this State. Its history is interesting. The Canadians found that there was a tendency on the part of their teachers and parents to use the books published by their great neighbor, the United States. The subject attracted attention, more than 60 years ago. It was clear that these books were fostering our ideas of liberty and even causing rebellious sentiment against British rule. To counteract this, books had to be made by Canadians or, at least, by English subjects. They began first vidth the Irish National Series and naturally the present forced use of British and Canadian texts, no matter how inferior to those published by the United States, has followed. In 1868 and in 1894 the contract for readers, for instance, was given to Canadian Publishing Companies. The Whitney Government in 1907, stating that the Ontario text-books were inferior to those of similar grade in this country, authorized the Minister of Education to secure an editor with power to have texts prepared, electroplates made and books printed by contract. The department store of T. Eaton Company, Limited, which has a printing plant for its large mail order business, was the lowest bidder. The oflfer was to furnish the Primer and the first four Readers at a total cost of 49 cents. Without saying anything as to the quality of these books, although educational experts have been practically a. unit in pronouncing them inferior to our own texts, it is a fact easily ascer- tained that they are able to be sold at so low a price because of two reasons: first, a part of the expense is borne by the Government and second, another part by the department store for the sake of the advertising. The same thing is true with regard to certain others of the Ontario books, particularly the arithmetic furnished by the Robert Simpson Company, Limited. Some of the books, however, are printed by regular publishing com- panies and undoubtedly with little, if any, help from the advertising idea already mentioned. Chicago's Spelling Book Case Editorial in " PuUishers' Weeldy," July 25, 1914, vol. 86, pp. 171, 172. That the government publication of school text-books is a most unwise extension of the administrative duties of the State has been repeatedly and clearly pointed out by many competent — ■ and disinterested as well as com- petent — to judge, so clearly pointed out that probably most educational authorities consider the proposition proved. Elsewhere in this issue of the Publishers' Weekly we reprint Mr. Pulsifer's well-reasoned argument on 142 New Yobk Depaetment of Efficiency and Economy this subject; not beaause it raises new points, but because it so clearly and forcefully marshals old ones that any bookseller may read it with profit. Every local bookseller is, in this state text-book conflict, on the firing line. Socialized endeavor of any sort may be anathema to many of the trade; most of the trade, however, like the public in general, are inclined to judge each case of state socialization of specific industries on its individual merits. Some protrusions of the state into business may seem, to even a majority of the trade, praiseworthily progressive, others questionable, others frankly to be condemned. And in the last class, if we may trust experience as well as reason, the publication of schoolbooks must be placed. That such publication is not only unwise but unfair, legally unfair, is a further conclusion perhaps not so frequently drawn. But the Chicago book- seller who brought suit recently against the Board of Education of that city to restrain it from publishing and selling its own " spellers " and other school-books not only believed that he was suffering from such " unfair com- petition," but had the courage of his convictions sufiiciently to fight for them. Mr. Francis W. Lane charges that the actions of this Board in empowgring Superintendent Ella Flagg Young to arrange for the compilation and publica- tion of a spelling book and in appropriating $9,710 of the city's money for such publication were illegal extensions of the Board's powers. The Publishers' ^Veekly does not believe that the argument of unfair competition is as strong a one in this case, either legally or in the tribunal of popular opinion, as that derived from the inherent wisdom of private publication. Americans, as a people, are believers in individualism, in pri- vately controlled business. On the whole they embark in governmental enter- prise with caution and even hesitancy. The burden of proof with us is always on the advocate of socialism. If, nevertheless, the latter can show the M-isdom of his course in the particular instance he advocates no amount of precedent, no regard for private privilege, no plea for private business gain can, in the last analysis, prevail against him. The American public may be cautious in socialization to the point of sluggishness and conservative in the protection of property rights to the points of moral astigmatism; once, however, it is convinced that government ownership or operation would in some particular instance promote the pul)lic weal it is almost impossible to combat its demand. In maintaining the advantages to the public of private over public school book publication the Publishers' Weekly believes ]ivi)jlishers and book- sellers stand on firm ground. Arguments based on selfish interest may have and do have, weight; they may even prevail; but they are not the strongest or safest arguments. CHICAGO SCHOOL BOOK PUBLICATION ENJOINED Suit for injunction seeking to restrain the Board of Education from pub- lishing and selling a speller for use in the Chicago public schools was filed early in July in the Federal Circuit Court by Francis W. Lane. The suit named the Board of Education, Peter Eeinberg, president; Lewis E. Larson, secretary; Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, superintendent of schools; Mayor Carter H. Harrison, City Comptroller John E. Traeger and City Treasurer Michael J. Flynn. In his petition Mr. Lane charged that the resolution of the Board of Education empowering Superintendent Y'oung and teachers of the public school to act as a committee to compile the speller and the proceedings for the printing and publishing of the books ajid tlif expenditure of $9,710 of the city's money for the 140,000 books were illegal acts. Eepobt of School Book Investigation 143 Mr. Lane asked that a temporary injunction should be issued, so the proceedings for the printing and publishing of the spelling book may be stopped, and that the defendants be restrained from selling the spellers or any text-book to or for the use of pupils of the public schools, and from requiring the pupils to purchase such text-books. Objections to State Production Z>. 0. McCrary, Report of Sentiment of Kansas State Teachers' Convention. "Journal of Education," January 1, 1914, vol. 79, pp. 5, 6. " We build sehoolhouses and equip them with every modern convenience, including seats, desks and furnishings. These we buy in the open market because the open market is bigger and wider than Kansas. We do this with taxes levied on the property in the school district. Why should we not go into the open market and buy the best school books and pay for them with taxes levied just as we pay for school furniture, and make them free to every child in the state? If Kansas authors and Kansas printing oiSces can supply the best books at the lowest prices, buy them. But let Kansas com- pete with the open market. The education of our children — the school books that lay the foundation of their lives — is too sacred a thing to be discarded for ' sentiment ' or for ' cheapness.' The best school texts are none too good for Kansas." This sentiment was expressed by hundreds of teachers who had hoped that in getting away from the evils complained of in the sixteen years of state uniformity, the legislature would consider the better way, district ownership, free text-books and the open market to select from. But this legislature, like others that came from the farms on the wave of a political upheaval, was pledged in the platform to pass a law providing for the state publication of school hooks. Educators, teachers and men high in educational councils came here to reason with the members and to beg of them to wait two years and in the meantime investigate the California system. But these appeals were in vain, state publication was in the platform and the platform was the will of the people — expressed by less than 400 men constituting the party council, and all candidates for office. Urging the party council to heed the will of the people were the experts, agitators and hopeful authors, with their respective axes to grind. In the meantime state publication is under way. An addition is being built to the state printing office and the state printer, the chairman of the text-book commission, is spending some time and money traveling over the country investigating the work of school book printing by the big publishing concerns. The appropriation of $225,000 made by the legislature to put the new plan on its feet will soon be exhausted. The sum of $50,000 is set apart to pay artists, authors, stenographers, critics and compilers. This leaves $175,000 to build the addition to the plant, equip it with the necessary machinery and go forward in the publication of the school books for Kansas. Persons who are familiar with the magnitude of the school book business for a state like Kansas declare that before such a plant is fully equipped, it will cost the taxpayers more than $1,000,000, and probably $2,000,000. The interesting question, therefore, is, what will future legislatures do? Will the growing sentiment for free school books for the children to be bought in the open market, as the great majority of Kansas teachers insist, result in putting the California plan into the discard? It looks that way. If it does, it will prove an expensive experiment to the taxpayers of the state. 144 New Yobk Depabtment op Efficiency and Economy James B. Penniman, Pamphlet, pp. 3, 8-10. There can be no exaggeration in saying that the" civilization and enterprise of the United States are in no way more adequately represented than by the text-books issued by high class educational publishers. Careful and unpreju- diced comparison of recent American schoolbooks with the best books pro- duced by tlie English, Germans, and French shows that the American book is as superior to the foreign as a Baldwin locomotive is to one of the teapots on wheels which Germany runs on its state-managed railroads. In fact, as a fitting tribute to the wisdom and skill of American publishers, the Mosely Commission of British educational experts which made a careful study of tlie educational systems of tlie United States pronounced American school- books tlie best in the world. * * * No State or municipal government can be administered as economi- cally and efficiently as a private business. Will any one maintain that shoes or hats would be better or cheaper if made in government factories? Yet it is far simpler to manufacture shoes and hats than text-books. The aver- age man may be a pretty good judge of a shoe or a hat, but he is utterly incompetent to judge of a text-book even when he is familiar with the subject of which it treats, for to judge a text-book requires highly specialized knowl- edge. An expert may know much about arithmetics and little of spellers. No school officer can properly perform the duties of his position and at the same time give satisfactory attention to the publication of text-books because, as any man of affairs will readily understand, a business as com- plicated as that of publishing text-books can be learned only by long and arduous experience, and rarely by one man in all its parts. Is it right tliat tlie children sliould suffer from tlie mistakes which must be made by men, however well fitted tliese may be by nature, while they are karning the publishing business? Is it likely that any body of men politically appointed would be continued in office long enough for them to learn this business properly, or is it possible that men already trained in the book business could be lured away from permanent establishments where their services are worth more tlian any State would pay? The best books are not written to order, but ars the outcome of experience. In order to secure such books there must be permanently established publish- ing business with officers trained to known what constitutes a good book. To obtain the best books, the survey of the publisher must extend over the entire civilized world, for he knows that the child is entitled to the best book wherever it may have been written. How many State-published books can be found which were written outside of that State? W. E. PuUifer, President of D. C. Heath and Company, in "Publishers' Weekly," July 25, 1914, vol. 86, pp. 180, 181. Will Georgia shut her doors against the best text-book writers of the world? Will Georgia, by limiting tlie sale of its authors' books to that State, deprive the country from enjoying the benefits of their efforts? This will inevitably be the result of the adoption of State published text- books. Is it possible that the experience and training of the body of experts now engaged in the making of school bpoks is worth nothing? Is it possible that a State can select one editor from the ranks of its educators, who can step into an editorial office, without previous training, and function these as sue- Eepobt of School Book Investigation 145 oessfully and satisfactorily as men who have spent their lives in the editorial offices of publishing houses? If so, human experience counts for nothing. To answer this question in the affirmative would be to say that an inexperi- enced man, although he may be a good scholar, could successfully superin- tend a large railroad system, a cotton factory, a silk factory or any other manufacturing establishment. It is like saying that in these days a man can jump, fully armed, from the head of Jove into the very heart of a great industry, and function as successfully as men who have had long training and experience in the work of supervising and caring for such industry. The proposition is absurd. Mr. Thurber, of Boston, a remarkably able editor, declares that the making of school books is a fine art which few master. The advocate of State pub- lication in Georgia evidently believes that it is as easy to make a text-book as to print a law report from copy all ready for the press, and that it is essentially the same kind of a job. The publisher has the worl4 from which to draw his manuscripts. He selects them with the greatest possible care and judgment, and yet but few of his published books are profit earners. The publisher has to stand the loss occasioned by the publication of unprofitable books — that is, books that fail to meet the needs of any large number of pupils and teachers. If this is the expert publisher's experience, what warrant is there for supposing that an untrained editor will have a different one? Why should we believe that he will be able \^'ith unerring judgment to select satisfactory text-books, when it is understood that the trained and experienced publisher, who invests his own money in the plates of such books as he prepares, and for that reason uses his own and the critic's best judgment in determining their educational worth, is able to secure such a small percentage of really successful pub- lications? Of course, if a State, by law, forces into the schools any books that a State editor may select, and allows the children to use no others for five years, or ten years, as in Ontario, the books so chosen and imposed will not at once be a total loss to such State. But at what great cost to the children who are forced to use such poor educational tools will this forcing be done! With all due respect to the gentleman from Georgia, his plan " saves at the spigot and leaks at the bung." William E. Chancellor in " School Jotirnal," March 1914, vol. 81, p. 164. There is no time to erect walls about our cities and to say to textbook authors from elsewhere, " You are to us aliens and strangers." This is no time to erect posts at the state lines and to set sentinels there to say to textbook publishers from elsewhere, " This soil is sacredly reserved to natives." I believe that some of the provisions in these bills are unconstitutional and that they would be so declared by the Federal Supreme Court. In par- ticular, suppose that Kew York state should undertake to require every city to spend its book money only for the product of a government plant and to limit the adoption of manuscripts to Xew York educators, and that Troy or BuflFalo should spends its money for books printed in Richmond, Virginia. Upon final appeal, would action lie against the Troy or Buffalo schools for misappropriating funds ? I think not, The citizens of • states are equal in all states. 146 New York Depaetmbnt of Efficiency and Economy Just at present, men who cannot get their books printed by the private publishers, school superintendents in trouble over book adoptions, local print- ers, labor leaders and building contractors are working for government plants. It is altogether likely that in some more states and in a considerable number of cities the experiments will be tried. It is desirable to prove all things and then to hold fast that which is good. But assume that forty states and forty out of the fifty ranking cities have all undertaken government printing, and that progressive publishers have been starved out in the rest of the states and cities. It is easy enough now for the man who wishes to make a speller for sale to some state with a government plant to collate the various spellers of the various private concerns. Or he can make a geography in that way. But he is living in truth without right upon the money and brains of men endeavoring in honorable business to forward the interests of school children by making better books for them. These private authors and publishers ransack the world for the best for our schools. Government printers and authors cannot do that. Government printers will be political appointees upon salary and contract. Government authors will be teaching on salaries and giving only their spare hours to book-making. The great capital funds that make splendid geographies and long mathematical series possible now will be non-existent. The ambitious author for the government plant would be hard put then to find materials; he would become a mere copyist of gov- ernment authors in other states. Every state and every city proposing to go this route would do well to pause and consider. Personally, however, I hope that several cities will try the matter out. It is, of course, possible that the plan may work successfully. Almost anything is possible. VI. RELATIONS OF PUBLISHERS AND SCHOOLS Phenomenal Sales of Text-Books George Middleton in "Bookman,'' April 1911, vol. 33, pp. 146, 147. Reed and Kellogg's Graded Lessons in English, in three books, has sold over five millions. Probably the largest speller is Eeed's Word Lessons, which has brought the author royalty on four million copies. Hyde's Language Lessons has also reached high figures, and one recalls the great success of Webster's Hpellers, and ilacGuffey's. It has been said the former reached over twenty-five million. The Wentworth Series, comprising some fifty volumes, is used in over two-thirds of the schools in the country. It alone has made publishers and author rich. Robinson's Arithmetic, Loomis's Geometry and Spear's Arithmetic have been likewise popular. Montgomery's Histories have had a sale in the millions, and Eggleston's Short History of United States and ilcJIaster's have also gone over a million. Epochs in American History has kept up its sale for manj- years. Eidpath's first History of United States, as used in the public school, is in the million class. The author was paid one thousand dollars for the work which made his publishers rich. In this connection it may be interesting to record that his History of the World, with which two or three publishers cleared over a half million a piece, having sold over five hundred thousand subscription copies, was written by liim in six years at a yearly salary of three thousand dollars. Fry's Geography, Harper's Geography, Tarr and JlcJIurray's Geog- raphy have attained a sale of over nearly three millions among them. One professor at Columbia has a royalty of eight thousand dollars a year from a. commercial geography. Eepoet of School Book Investigation 147 Extent and Profits of School Book Business Edwin Ginn, in " Independent," August, 1910, vol. 69, pp. 223, 224. Many suppose that the school book business is on a par, as to extent, money invested and profits derived, witli tlie leading industries of the country. I have often seen it. stated that the publishers were malting enormous profits and that they were engaged in a business of very large proportions, some rating it as high as $1,000,000 in a single State. But to tlie best of my knowledge and belief the entire school book business in the United States is somewhere between $9,000,000 and $12,000,000 annually, and it must be remembered that this is divided among a large number of houses. Compare the extent of the publishing business with the other great industries of the country. It will be seen at a glance that there are many that exceed it from ten to twenty fold; as, for example, manufactures of various kinds, woolens and cottons, boots and shoes, iron and steel, farming implements, sugar, liquors, cigars, etc., the great milling interests, real estate interests, transportation by land and sea, oil, coal and mining industries, banking, and the various lines of mercantile enterprises. All these exceed in amount the school book business many, man}' times. Because of the difficulties and rislis attending this business we have seen many failures. You can count upon the fingers of- one hand the school-book publishing houses that have accumulated any considerable property in the last fifty years. From the above it seems to me it can readily be seen that there is much to deter thouglitful men of ability and enterprise from entering the school- book publishing business under present conditions. Yet how does it compare in importance with other activities? Is it not as essential to have good books as good slioes, good clothes, or good houses? Is it not as necessary to train the mind properly as to care for the body? It would seem that the public should foster and jarotect those engaged in the malcing of school books as carefully at least as those engaged in any other business. The Persistency of Text-Book Agents Mr. Parks, in " Debates of Constitutional Convention of Virginia," 1901-02, p. 1S25. Coming from the country, I can state positively what the people desire in reference to this matter and what the school authorities wish. Further tlian that, having been associated with the school system in the country, and by virtue of the position I have held for years, being made familiar with the proceedings of the school boards in the county and the caliber o^ the men who constitute the school boards in the country in the main, I approve of the first clause of this section, which provides that the State board shall select school books and appliances for the country. I protest against sub- jecting the school boards in the country to assaults from book agents. I sup- pose every man on this floor is acquainted with the persuasive eloquence and the persistent conduct of book agents. It has been said, sir, that the test was made upon one occasion, and there was only one human being in the world who can outstrip a book agent, and that is an insurance agent. It is said that, in order to test the matter, a book agent and an insurance agent were locked uji in a room, each to ply the other. The parties returned after some time and found the book af,'ent on the floor in extremis and the insurance agent whispering in his ear, calling his attention to what he had lost by not yielding to his persuasive 148 New Yoek Dbpaktment of Efficiency and Economy eloquence and still insisting that he should listen to him, assuring him that he was not only supplied with life insurance, but that he was armed with policies of fire insurance, and, as the book agent was likely to go to a country where that would be needed, insisted on his taking out a policy in a fire insurance company. Mr. President, so far as the county boards are concerned, these book agents come to a county and go around and see the superintendent and members of the board. If they find they are invulnerable they go and employ the best lawyer in the town to go before the school board and represent the school books for which the agent is canvassing. As these trustees receive no com- pensation it is difficult to get the best men always to take the places, and, as they are in a hurry to get the work off their hands, they are not in a position to meet these school book agents. Good Words for Traveling Bookmen Edmn Ginn, in "Independent," vol. 69, pp. 222-225, August, 1910. Because of the sharp competition in the school book business, as in all other enterprises, the dift'erent houses have sent out large numbers of traveling men. This has affected the public both favorably and unfavorably. These men are for the most part college graduates, many of them have been teachers, men well qualified to conduct intelligently the work in hand. They distribute annually, free of charge, hundreds of thousands of the latest text- books, thus giving teachers and school officials an opportunity to examine the newest and best in school literature. This has been a decided advantage to education, particularly in country districts far from the large cities. These agents are an elevating influence on the whole and are so recognized by thoughtful educators; but occasionally, in their zeal to secure business for their respective houses, they may lay themselves open to the charge of bringing about changes which are of less benefit to the public than to the publisher. Largely, I believe, because the public have not understood the conditions and have felt that the profits received from the sale of school books were too large, certain States have taken into their hands the selection of text- books for a series of years, in some instances going so far as to limit the price of the books to be used in the schools. Frank A. Fitzpatrick, in Report of National Educational Assoeiation for 1912, pp. 450, 451. The general introduction of music in the schools is largely owing to the personal efforts and demonstrations, years ago, of two bookmen, who, against great indifference on the part of school officials and more skepticism, in fre- quent contests with each other and others, proved that music could be taught just as other subjects. Similar services have been rendered to the schools in their time by many other bookmen. At present, any new idea affecting the schools, tlieir well-being, such as results from better heating, lighting, ventilating, must be virtually taught and demonstrated to school officials and authorities by the representatives of such industries, much the same as other topics are taught in- the schools and in the world. The commercial world thus becomes an important factor in bringing about better conditions. In a recent article Professor Duncan quotes a famous chemist, Professor Bernhard of Paris: "Former discoveries of mine I gave to the world and they have practically died. The last one I have patented because only by making it an object to Eepokt of School Book Investigation 149 some commercial interest to make it, can it be brought to man's attention and the world benefited." An article that anybody can make, a book not protected by copyright, is not likely to be made by anyone. Any publishers can publish the great debates between Lincoln and Douglas. The copyrights on numerous books of great literary value have long since expired, but if you want to purchase a copy, the only place that one can be found is probably in the stock of the dealer in second-hand books. The bookman, in his first relation to the schools, exists, directly, to point out and exploit the aims and methods of the author of the text-book that he is trying to sell ; indirectly, to help the schools thru betterment of methods of teaching. For these purposes he needs opportunity to lay his facts and points before teachers and superintendents ; otherwise, it might be months and years before these busy people would discover what this author has to tell them. The cost of text-books of all description does not exceed 3 per cent of the appropriation for running expenses of the schools. Yet to the pupils in the schools it may be a question of 50 per cent of their time and opportu- nities, to have this problem thoroly studied and solved, to the end that the tools used by them shall be of the best quality and latest pattern. There- fore, teachers and superintendents must and do take all the time that they can spare from their other duties to acquaint themselves with the contents, methods, and aims of text-books. The bookman, coming into contact with the schools at various points, is quick to find excellent teachers, teachers with inventive minds, and to encourage them to express their powers in the line of authorship. Thru the bookman a very large number of the best text-books come to be written and published. He is, therefore, an important factor in the growth and maintenance of good teaching and the consequent uplift in the schools, even tho the immediate results of his work are not so visible as th(jse resulting from the efl'orts of others. Another function of the bookman is to secure and insure a high quality of workmanship in the manufacture of text-books. He is an important factor in this because he witnesses in the wear and tear of books in the schools shortcomings in binding and printing, and learns of defects in methods of treatment from the criticisms of teachers and patrons. These faults he is more anxious to correct than anyone else. This causes him to be alert at all times in the interest of his customers — the schools. Text-Book lobbying in Michigan E. R. Pattengill, in Report of Superintendent of Public Instruction, Michigan, 1898, p. 295. Neither do I fall down and worship the fetish that the dear people's clamor caused the introduction and passage of that bill. Stripped of sentiment the dear people in this case was pretty nearly a committee of one. It was a fight between the outs and the ins. One set of text-book companies whose holdings in Michigan are slight wanted a new deal, and such a bill would give them a chance and they worked for it; and one senator devoted his entire time and traded oflF all his political power for this one bill. The other set of text-book companies had large holdings in Michigan, and very naturally fought to stay in. Report of Superintendent of Puhlic Instruction, Michigan, 1897, part I, p. 13. Unpleasant as it may be, it becomes my duty as a, representative of the educational interests of Michigan to speak out plainly concerning these indi- 150 New Yoek Department of Efficiency and Economy viduals. In doing so I recognize fully the right of all persons doing business in the State to be represented in legislative committee rooms by persons who are qualified to speak in their behalf. If this is a government by the whole people, then the interests of corporations and stock companies are just as sacred as the interests of the humble mechanic who buys food, clothing, and school supplies for his children. There has been much said in recent times concerning the influence of legislative boodlers and bribers. I am not prepared to say that any man who has appeared as a lobbyist on the text-book question is either a boodler or a briber. I can say, however, that the great army of honest, earnest, and conscientious men and women who are the school teachers and officers of the State, has been imposed upon by men who, having held State offices and thereby gained some influence, come to legislative halls with hypocrisy and deceit, declaring with sanctimonious cant, to use their own words, " we pay our own railroad and hotel bills;" also that they were working without pay in " protecting the interests of the boys and girls of Jlichigan." One of these men, elected by the people of the State, a man who had taken his oath to support the Constitution and obey the laws of the Commonwealth, was, while holding that office, an agent of publishers of text-books in strict violation of the laws of the State; and it was noticeable that these men were able to remain about the Capitol and the Lansing hotels for days and weeks " in the interests of the boys and girls." Evils of Local Adoptions and Sales in Wisconsin Report of Special Text-BooJc Committee of Wisconsin Legislature, 1913, pp. 5, 6. The committee has conducted extensive investigations among district clerks and in the offices of county superintendents. They have held many hearings at which the leading school men of the State and the agents of the various book companies have testified as to the facts and given their opinion on all phases of the subject. The text-book laws and the administration of the text-book laws in other States have been carefully studied. As the result of such investigation, the committee submits the following list of major findings: 1. There are wide variations in the prices of the same book — a variation frequently amounting to 150%. There are wide variations in the price of the same book; A. In the same county when bought by the pupils and by the clerk; B. In the price paid by district school clerks in the same county; C. In the price paid by children in the same county; D. In the prices paid by difi'erent parts of the State by children and by district school clerks. 2. Books long since out of date and not in conformity with modern educa- tional methods are now being- used in many of the rural districts. Copyrights not infrequently date back from fifteen to twenty-five years. 3. The prices paid for books in Wisconsin are generally much higher than the prices paid in States where State-wide uniformity obtains. 4. Local boards of school directors are often careless and more often incom- petent to select proper books for use in schools, and are, moreover, subject to extraneous influences by book agents. 5. These latter influences are also exerted directly on teachers who have influence with district school clerks. 5. In order to avoid transportation charges, books, recognizedly poor, are purchased because the district is buying other books from the same company. Report of School Book Investigation 151 The Second-Hand Trade Edicin Oinn, in " Nation," May 18, 1905, vol. 80, p. 395. Competition has been so sharp that publishers have vied with each other in sending out their books very liberally for examination. So long as they did not get back into the market, the publishers Avere justified, in a measure, in their liberality, for this method brings to the attention of teachers and school officials the latest and best educational thought as nothing else can. But a serious menace has arisen to this custom. Several firms have recently been established whose practice it is to correspond with and visit teachers and school officials for the purpose of buying from them the books which have been sent for examination. So freely have these examination copies been distributed that thousands of teachers have foimd themselves burdened with books which they could not use in their work, and which were conse- quently of little or no value to them. Jloreover, this liberality on the part of the publishers has naturally given the impression to the teaching fraternity that the cost of these books is trifling; and they have thoughtlessly sold them into the market without realizing the injustice they were doing to both author and publisher. So successful have these firms been in their canvass that it often happens that, when an agent has secured a good adoption, the publisher does not sell a single copy of the book introduced. The 'order goes to the dealer, who is able to sell the books at a large discount and yet make a larger margin of profit than the publisher would expect to secure. Now, these books were given away as complimentary copies for examination in the first place, and so the author receixed no copyright. In the final sale they are handled by these dealers, who of co'jrse pay tlie author no royalty. Con- sequently the author is robbed of the rr\\'ard of his labor and skill, and the publisher is deprived of his legitimate sales. It will t)ius be seen that the very liberality of the publisher has become one of his heaviest burdens. Influence of Book Companies Potent Frederic Burk, in " Transactions of California Commonwealth Club," August, 1912, p. 349. Those closely in touch with the process of selecting text-books are also well aware that lack of expert judgment in selection does not altogether account for the unsatisfactory texts adopted. The influences exerted by the publishing companies, cliiefly indirect and subtle, are forces that are the most difficult to reckon with. Tliese influences extend in a network mesh through- out the school organizations and all educational activities of the State and Nation. The school people, unfortunately, are learning the dangerous lesson that the selection, promotion and reputation of superintendents, principals and other administrative officers, and even good repute among their fellows, depend, not so much upon service in the schools as upon their attitude toward these commercial book concerns. It may be merely a coincidence but it is also a fact that the majority of school men, most prominent in educational organization and administrative affairs, are also those on terms of closest personal intimacy with the agents of book companies. By reason of this fact the interest of book companies has frequently become a factor of more dominating importance than the interests of the pupils and schools; as for example, the history of the present attempt to adopt language texts shows. When any text is adopted campaigns are immediately started throughout this network of far-reaching influences to develop and create dissatisfaction 152 New Yoek Depaetment of Efficiency and Economy with the text adopted and secure a change. The Shanahan amendment makes it possible to provide some means of protection to the school interests from this ever growing menace fi'om commercial interests. Defense of the Text-Book Publishers George Middleton in "Bookman," April, 1911, vol. 33, p. 141. About eighty houses devote themselves to feeding the demand of young reaching minds, and with some exceptions are dealing exclusively with text- books — one firm, for example, has a list of nearly three thousand ; while others make their miscellaneous publishing solely possible through the earnings of their educational department. The wide attention which is being given to systematic instruction, the close correlation of grades from kinder- garten to post-graduate research, the growth of the public and high school, combined with the large increase in teachers has tended, quite naturally, with added altitudes to broaden the horizon and make text-book publication limitless and competitive. There is no Harriman to-day who could possibly bring these various houses harmoniously together; and though there are dominating influences contin- ually at work, the very nature of the business prevents a trust in spite of such statements in general and several State indictments in particular. Some twenty years ago, it is true, forty firms came to an agreement to control the market, to regulate the price of books and their placement, but within a short while an equal number of publishers sprang up in different parts of the country and compelled competition, which proved a somewhat disconcerting corrective of monopoly. It was found impossible to prevent authors from writing, presses from printing, and school boards from accepting rival text- books. Indeed, four or five firms are all powerful by reason of their wealth, impetus and indefinite lists, but there are any number of small firms that have a " big seller," which gives an ever-impending power for further encroach- ments. True, also, a few States are practically " owned " by certain firms, but, on the whole, competition is possible though the situation is open to notorious abuses. Seldon C. Smith in " Trcmsactions of California Common/ioealth Club," August, 1912, pp. 359, 360. I am a representative of Ginn & Co. of Boston. I have lived in San Fran- cisco fourteen years. I have been a member of the Commonwealth Club for a year or more; and I appreciate perfectly well that judging from the clip- pings that I receive from papers all over the State, that whatever I say will probably be twisted and turned, or interpreted to mean that the book trust is back of the teachers' movement. About twenty years ago there was one of the biggest fights in the publishing business that has ever been carried on in the country, and I think it was one of the biggest industrial and com- mercial fights ever known. It was at the time the American Book Company was formed of the Van Antwerp Bragg Company, and Iveson, Blakeman and Taylor. They came to Mr. Ginn and they said, " Competition is very expensive, and if you will take the high school and college books, we will take the common school line and do away with competition." Mr. Ginn said " No. We are educators as well as commercial men. We believe that the school- book publishers are go-betweens between the teacher with a great idea, and the pupil who is to receive that idea, and that if you make a trust, or if you Bepoet of School Book Investigation 153 do away with competition, you are an absolute hindrance to the best educa- tional welfare of this country." As a result of that statement one of the biggest fights was started that was ever carried on in this country. The reason I am mentioning this is, there has been so much said about the book trust for the last twenty-nine years, ever since the State Printing Office has been started. They never have found a single thing against the book pub- lishers here in California, and yet whenever anything has been brought up, they do not discuss the local paper houses or anything like that, but the men who support the State Printing Office start right off with this bogie, the book trust. I am a man of very sensitive temperament, and I have repeatedly asked them to make a full investigation. I sent a, communication at once when this thing was started in the last Legislature and told them that our books were open to them. I invited them to come and look into our organiza- tion and see what was being done; and I never received an answer to my letter. To-day there are a hundred and two educational publishers in the State. Dr. Burk said to-night in his talk that the royalties had been lowered very materially as the result of competition among the publishers. That does not look very much like a book trust, does it? We have been fighting. The largest competitor that we have is the American Book Company. We are next in size. But there is not a book trust. It is impossible to-day. That is why the school people of the State so resent the constant insinuation about the book trust, because they know that competition is mighty keen to-day in the school-book business. W. E.

You charge in this editorial that the School-Book Trusts were responsible for the failure of Mm. Young to secure her re-election as superintendent of schools at the hands of the Chicago school board. This editorial is what a distinguished literary critic calls " a splendid example of careless writing." I say " careless " for two reasons : — ■ 1. A careful examination of the facts would have convinced your writer that there isn't in this country, and never has been to my knowledge, such a thing as a School-Book Trust. 2. The school-book houses had no more to do with the recent defeat of Mrs. Ella Flagg Young than the New York World has with the regulation of the affairs of the inhabitants of the planet Mars. It is true that Mrs. Young last summer objected to the conduct of one of the small school-book publishing houses in Chicago that attempted to secure the adoption of certain of its books by the Chicago board of education ; but Mrs. Young never has said and does not say now that the hundred or more other school-book publishing houses in this country conspired to defeat her. She would be the last person to say that all men are murderers because Cain killed Abel. The American people work certain jokes to death. When a cheap comedian runs short of stuff he lings in the mother-in-law joke. The hundred or more school-book publishing houses operating in the United States regard the over- worked phrase " School-Book Trust " as one of the stock jokes of newspaper 154 New Yokk Department of Efficiency and Economy writers, for they know that these houses compete with each other for business as keenly as two parallel lines of transcontinental railways. * * * There is not even a gentlemen's agreement existing by which prices are regulated. There is no agreement by which competition is limited. There is no agreement of any sort or kind that prevents these houses from competing for business wherever business can be obtained. Let me give one proof of this: — The state board of education of Texas adopts every six years a uniform series of books to be used in all the public schools of that state for a term of six years. Section 13 of the Texas law provides as follows: — - " No book or books shall be purchased from any person, firm or corporation who is a. member of or connected with any trust; and in the event it be established that this provision has been violated, such violation shall be held to be fraud and collusion as contemplated under section 26, of this act, and the attorney-general shall bring suit upon the bond of such person, firm or corporation, and upon proof of such violation shall recover the liquidated damages provided for in section 26 hereof." At the last state adoption in Texas almost every school-book publishing house in the United States offered books to the state board. After a close examination of the books proposed, the state board selected a series of com- mon and. high school texts, gave contracts to the successful publishers, which were protected by liquidated-damages bonds of large size, against which bonds a suit may be brought at any time by the attorney-general of the state and the full amount of the bonds exhausted in case any statement or statements made in the affidavits of the publishers are found to be false. Now the pub- lishers who secured business in Texas swore that their houses were absolutely independent; that they were in no combination with other houses, etc. If these publishers lied, they can be severely punished in heavy damages as provided by the Texas statute. In Oklahoma the state law requires publishers to file a list of their stock- holders, together with affidavits that they are absolutely independent. A number of other states that work under the state adoption plan require similar affidavits. In view of what I have said, should not the public regard the " Book Trust " charge in the nature of an over-worked joke? William E. Chancellor in " School Journal," April, 1913, vol. 82, pp. 218-220. The talk of a " book trust " is sheer nonsense. The School Journal knows the facts; and desires its readers to know them. The American text-book market absorbs annually about $15,000,000 worth of books, not more. These books are nearly all published by about one hun- dred difl'erent houses. A dozen large houses make and sell probably ninety per cent of all text-books. No one house does one-half or anything like one- half of the business. In such a situation there can be no monopoly. But it is replied that through community of interest and interlocking directorates one house controls nearly all the business. This simply is not so. The School Journal is familiar with the alliances of the various leading houses; the family relationships and the banking connections. Tlie fact seems to be that there are two sets of alliances and a great field of independents. One leading house is very friendly with several smaller houses; another leading concern is on most friendly terms with another houss of fair size. These two sets of alliances compete strongly with each other; Bepoet of School Book Investigation 155 neither controls so much as one-half of the total business. We do not mean that the large house owns the smaller houses, but simply that there a.re per- sonal friendships and intimate relations involved. Fighting against these two sets of opponents are the many other houses. One of these general publishing houses does a total business of considerable magnitude, of which about one-half is done on text-books. Another is a large publishing concern in which text-books are but a minor department. These two general publish- ing houses, with their text-book departments, lack, to some extent, the inti- mate knowledge of text-book conditions and the intimate connections with educational affairs which characterize the strictly text-book house. Unquestionably the independents do nearly one-half of the total book busi- ness. They are all free and active rivals. But again it is objected that there is a "' pool " or a " gentleman's agree- ment " as to prices. This is contrary to all our information and belief. The School Journal will undertake to show before any proper body that there is no standard of prices for books. Page for page, per il ems of type, size considered, some houses furnish dollar for dollar three times' as much as do other houses. Why not? Shall there not be a fair field and no favor? Does not quality of authorship count? It is said that vast fortunes are made and being made in the text-book business. It is also said that the gross profit above manufacturing cost is excessive. Even if these two statements were true, and thry are not true, to make them is simply to attack the existing economic regime and the social order, iien who make them do not know their political economy well; or else are revolutionists. Name the great fortunes, and their amounts. If there is any man who by the text-book business has made in the last twenty years ten million dollars. The School Journal does not know him. We believe that we have a fair knowledge of the fortunes of the important men in the text-book field. It is true that there are a few millionaires; but the possession of two or three million dollars is not a great fortune as American business goes. In fact, we do not know of any text-book stockholder, officer or partner who in the last ten years has made through the text-book business so much as one million dollars. The total invested capital of all the text-book makers in America surely does not exceed forty million dollars and is probably not thirty millions. We doubt whether^ the total net profits equal so much as six per cent upon the investment. State printing plants should earn at least five per cent. Charles H. Thurier in "Outlook," September 13, 1913, vol. 106, pp. 82, 83. Taking high schools with common schools, the expenditure for text-books per pupil is between sixty and seventy-five cents a year, and the total not far from twelve million dollars a year. This, while not a very large sum in these days, does sound rather large, after all, for the school-book business of this country, until you stop to remember that there are some twenty million children in the public schools and more than a hundred firms publishing text- books, not reckoning a multitude of small concerns that publish a few books and get each some share of the business. Chewing-gum costs us more than text-books. People do nst know these facts so that every now and then a " reformer " gets a hearing when he starts after the " School Book Trust, a powerful and 156 New Yokk Dbpaetment of Efficiency and Economy arrogant combination which is taking out of the education of American youth all the private toll that can be obtained." Sometimes the reformer is honest but misinformed; sometimes he certainly has his own ax to grind, it may be in the form of a State Printing Office which can be made to furnish jobs for a multitude of the faithful. California tried this plan for many years, and of the results the San Francisco " Chronicle" said, January 17, 1911: The books when printed at the State Printing Office and sold at cost are carrying much higher prices than precisely the same books are being sold for to pupils in other States. " Precisely the same books " were in this case not precisely the same ; for though California rented the plates of its books from the publishers who owned them, and therefore had the same words on the pages, paper, presswork and binding were all inferior to the work turned out by the publishers them- selves. Kansas is now, apparently, to try the same experiment, urged on by the cry that it will save the people of the State over two hundred thousand dollars a year. Xow Kansas has uniform. State-adopted books, has had them for years, and a very accurate record of the actual sales of text-books in Kansas is available. The fact is that text-books for the common schools have cost Kansas about one hundred and seventy-five thousand dollars annually. Xow to save two hundred thousand dollars a year on something which costs only one hundred and seventy-five thousand is a task which would appall most of us — outside of Kansas. To be called a trust when you are a trust is bad enough, but when you are not a trust, and have no chance of becoming one, it calls for the cry, " Fair play, gentlemen." Whether there ever was a school-book trust or not, there certainly is none to-day, nor has there been for many years. You will find on file in Texas, as required by the law of that State, where there is a uniform. State-adopted list of text-books, affidavits from all the school-book publishers who bid for business, each stating that that particular firm is not connected either directly or indirectly with a. trust. But you may not put your faith in affidavits. These affidavits, however, are backed by bonds so large, not less than twenty thousand dollars for each book adopted, that no firm would think of forfeiting them, and the law states that the Attorney- General of the State shall bring suit and collect the full amount of the bond in case any affidavit is found to be false. When the bids were opened in Austin last September, forty-nine publishers were competing for State busi- ness under the stringent requirements of the l_aw. Texas has a record for knowing what to do with trusts, yet at least forty-nine text-book publishers are shown by the official records, open to all men, to be at peace with Texas. It seems hardly necessary to adduce further proof that there is no such thing as a school-book trust. Those inside the school-book business believe it is improving in many ways. The books are very much better than they were — any one can prove this by comparing the text-books of to-day with the best twenty or even ten years ago; and, while the cost of production has increased, the actual selling price shows, on the average, a decrease of more than ten per cent in twenty-five years. A generation ago the price of a large geography was two dollars; to-day a very much better book of the same grade sells for not more than one dollar and twenty-five cents. The personnel of the business has probably improved; certainly it will not suff'er by comparison with any other line of business whatever. Most of those in the business are college educated, many have had successful teaching experience, and not a few have held high positions in school work. The making of text-books is a fine art which few master. Report of School Book Investigation 157 VII. SELECTION OF TEXT-BOOKS Report of Superintendent of Public Instruction, Michigan, 1898, part 3, p. 56 The state uniformity law passed in Oregon in 1895 contains one original feature that is specially worthy of notice; viz., the method of selecting books. A circular is prepared by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, under direction of the State Board of Education, containing a list of studies required in the public schools, together with wholesale, retail, exchange, and intro- ductory prices; and upon this list all the county superintendents and state examiners are required to vote as to choice, a majority of votes determining the text-book selected in each branch. Button and Snedden's "Administration of Public Education in the United States," Revised Edition of 1912, p. 213. Apart from the matter of the price, the most important function of author- ities in connection with text-books is the selection. In many cities, where the right to select is a local matter, the Board of Education assumes this function, but with an increasing tendency to cooperate with the Superintendent. A study of supervision in Massachusetts made about 1900 showed that in 233 cities and towns of the state the Superintendent exercised no authority in the selection of text-books in 8; advisory in 85; joint power in 44; and in 92 he had full powers of selection. Where county uniformity prevails, the County Board of Education usually makes selections, this board usually,, though not always, being composed partly of teachers, and so involving a fair amount of expert service in the selection. In the matter of establishing state uniformity, of course the enormous importance of the work, and the strong possibility of corruption, has made the selection of the state authority for selection a difficult one. In Alabama the new text-book commission is to be composed of the Governor, Superintendent of Public Instruction, " nine educators of known character and ability . and engaged in public school work, one from each congressional district " and selected by the Governor. The new 1911 law in Florida constitutes the board of commissioners of state institutions a state text-book commission, and also creates a subcommission of nine professional teachers and school officers. The usual duties of selection, contract, etc., are vested in these boards, and penalties are provided for the use of any book not upon the adopted list, and for overcharge on the part of contractors. In Indiana a board somewhat similarly constituted is found consisting of eleven members. Oeorge' W. Loomis in Report of Superintendent of Public Instruction, Michigan, 1898, p. 200. Ihe text-book board should be representative. By this I mean that its membership should comprise representatives from the leading educational agencies of the state that have directly to dr with the common schools. Our State Normal Schools and the department of pedagogy of the Uni- versity of Michigan, established by the state to train teachers in the history, philosophy, and principles of education, certainly stand for the theoretical side of common school instruction. 158 New Yoek Department op Efficiency and Economy Superintendents of city schools and county school commissioners stand for the practical application of the theories of the training schools to the children of the state. They are students, thej' should be experts in the practical side of education. The State Board of Education and the State Superintendent of Public Instruction represent the general interests of the common schools as related to all the other educational machinery of the state. Our training schools, our city schools, our rural schools, and the State Board of Education, could all be represented fairly on a board of less than a dozen members; and such a board would stand for the highest intelligence of the state on both the theoretical and the practical sides of our common school system. It is patent that our present law is faulty in that the training schools are not directly represented, and the city schools, in which are enrolled more than one-half of the 500,000 children now attending our common schools, are entirely ignored. Much of the unsavory history of text-book uniformity arises from the fact, I believe, that in almost every instance the entire administration of the law has been left to the State Board of Education. Button and Snedden'a "Administration of Public Education in the United Stoites," Revised Edition of 1912, pp. 226, 227. Granting that uniformity of a certain kind must be had, it is or should be evident that the selection of the best books is unquestionably a matter for expert judgment. There are no ordinary standards of pedagogic quality for text-books, even if mechanical tests could be established; for a successful text-book is a work of art, having good or bad pedagogical qualities which enhance or diminish its serviceableness, and for judging this only experience and insight should be utilized. As with other types of tools, the effectiveness of the worker, whether teacher or pupil, depends very much upon the quality of the tools used; and it may well happen that a text-book which appears to be very expensive as contrasted with some other may in the education of the child be the best possible investment. Hence it is obvious that the selection of text-books must be a matter for the expert — the expert in education, not in the making of text-books, is meant. Only the trained and experienced teacher or leader of teachers can say finally what kind of tool (text-book) will produce best results in the educational process. Only the expert again can say whether it is wise that the same book be used for a variety of schools, or whether considerable room for local adaptation should be allowed. We have already noted that in several of the states where uniformity prevails provision is made, through expert service on the board itself, or through the use of subcommissions of experts cooperating with the board, for utilizing the best knowledge of active edu- cators in the selection of books, and similarly in the case of county boards. With the development of local expert supervision there can be no doubt that local selection will more and more be selection by the Superintendent or an expert body acting with him. (C/. the state of Washington which, after some trial of state uniformity, has abandoned it and in districts of the first class has text-books selected by a district (t. e. city) commission composed of the Superintendent of Schools, two members of the board, and two active teachers.) Everywhere, even in cases of state uniformity, it is possible that it would be well to have a lay body to approve of the work of the committee of experts, but the lay body should not liave powers of initiation; Eepoet of School Book Investigation 159 Report of Chicago Educational Commission, 1898, pp. 144, 145. The choice of text-books for use in the public schools rests naturally with the superintendent. Experience in many cities has shown that just in pro- portion as the Board of Education undertakes this detail of school adminis- tration, difficulties arise which impair the efficiency of the system. No board of education is competent to choose the text-books best adapted for school use. The problem is distinctly one for expert decision, and should be left to the superintendent. His recommendation, made after due consultation with his assistants, should be followed in all cases. What is true of text-books is also true of other equipment, such as reference libraries, maps, and general school supplies. Such a rule as has been proposed (i), would be welcomed, we believe, by the members of the board themselves, for it would free them from much annoying pressure on the part of representatives of various publishing interests. No one can follow the history of the Chicago board in the matter of text-books and school supplies without being impressed with the serious waste of time involved in the present method of selection. It lias led, at the best, to much fruitless consideration of these questions by members of the board, and at the worst, to an effort to exert undue influence on their decision. (2) The change recommended should be favorably regarded also by publishing houses, as it would gradually diminish the effort necessary to present fairly the claims of their respective books, and would lead to a more just and impartial choice between them. If these considerations hold true, we may reasonably conclude that under the plan hitherto followed, minor abuses have arisen. Your commission be- lieves that in some instances, text-books and various kinds of school equip- ment have been adopted which are not needed, or were not carefully chosen, or for which, under a progressive course of study there is no longer any necessity. (3) If it is a difficult matter at present to secure the adoption of particular text-books, it is almost equally difficult to have them dropped from the list. To secure freedom for the superintendent in the choice of text-books, we believe that in school legislation this function should be assigned clearly and fully to him. A general disposition on the part of the members to follow his advice, and even a formal ruling of the Board of Education to this effect, is not a sufficient guarantee, since in either case the board will be free, under a suspension of the rules or otherwise, to act con- trary to the superintendent's recommendations. Pending final legislative action, which will give this power to the superintendent, we believe that much can be accomplished if the board of education will support a vigorous educational policy in this particular. The superintendent should be entirely free in the choice of text-books, except that his action should be subject tu revision by a two-thirds vote of the board. Either under this provision or under the present rule requiring the sanction of a majority of the board for the adoption of text-books he should he directed to revise the preseent list of text-books. VIII. THE BEST PIAST OF ADMINISTRATION Button and Snedden's "Administration of Puhlic Education in the United States," Revised Edition of 1912, pp. 227, 22S. As a tentative conclusion, the following is off'ered: the state or the county or the local supervision district should be an area for the selection of books, for malcing contracts as to quality and price; all selection should be in the hands of experts, subject to the approval of a lay board, or ex-oilieio board acting in a lay capacity; the books adopted in any one subject should be of 160 New York Depaetment op Efpiciency and Economy more than one kind, that is, of more than one authorship or publisher; any city or supervised division should have the right to appeal, on grounds of educational opportunity and advantage, for permission to use books not on the adopted list, with a detailed showing of the reasons for such change, which reasons, it is needless to say, should come from expert educators; and the school should purchase books and loan them to pupils, so that not only will families moving into the districts not be subject to a heavy tax, but also the school may more easily change the type of book in use when newer and better ones are adopted by the central authorities, the old books continuing to be used as long as possible for supplemental purposes. Through some such scheme as this only can it become possible to provide for each school or district the books best adapted to it, with opportunities to procure the best, and at the same time to minimize the possibilities of corruption in this very important part of business administration.

The commission advertises for bids. Publishers make deposits as evidence of good faith in bidding and give bonds for observance of contract terms and conditions. Contract prices are printed on the backs of the books. Prices must not exceed those charged in other states. The state is not liable to the contractors for payment. The contractors must take old books at a stipulated price. The commission may also advertise for bids for publishing copyrighted books and manuscripts accepted by it. Supplementary books may be used', but not to the exclusion of the books selected by the commission. The books selected may be dropped by a three-fourths vote of the commission at the end of a school year if they have proved unsatisfactory. Teachers must use the books under penalty of fine. Violation of the text-book act is a mis- demeanor. Code of Alabama, 1907, §§ 1805-1860, 7751-7753. ARIZONA The state board of education prescribes and enforces the use of a uniform series of text-books throughout the state. Its members are the governor, the superintendent of public instruction, the president of the state university and the principals of the state normal schools, ex-officio, and a city superintendent, a high school principal and a county superintendent, appointees of the governor. Text-book contracts are let to the lovfest responsible bidders. The price of a book must be as low in Arizona as anywhere else in the United States. The state board purchases the books with money from the state school fund and issues them to the county superintendents who issue them to the local school boards who issue them to -the pupils. The superintendents receipt to the state board, the local boards receipt to the siiperintendents and the pupils receipt to the local boards. Each book is adopted for a period of not less than five years. Not more than one text-book [169] 170 New Yoek Department of Efficiency and Economy can be changed in any one year for any particular grade. A book contract becomes null and void when the contractor enters into a trust or combination. The text books remain the property of the state. If a pupil damages or loses his book, he must pay for a second copy. Upon the completion of a course covered by a text-book, it becomes the private property of the pupil. Parents, guardians or pupils may purchase books from the school authorities at cost. Revised Statutes of Arizona, IQ-IS, §§ 2697, 2825-2836. ARKANSAS The law forbids the new state board of education to prescribe text-books. A county may vote on the question of making text- books uniform within its bounds. If the vote is in the affirmative, a county school book board selects the books. This board consists of the county examiner, ex-officio, two resident teachers, with first grade certificates, appointed by the state superintendent of public instruction and two citizens appointed by the county judge. It may sit not more than ten days in a year. Its members receive a ■ per diem of two dollars. Each book is adopted for a period of six years. The county school book board sends list of the adopted text-books and their contract prices to the teachers and school directors. Use of the adopted books is compulsory throughout the county, except in incorporated cities and towns organized as special districts. If a county votes against uniformity, school books cannot be changed for a year. Every public school district may use a suitable elementary text-book in agriculture and horti- culture. Indigent pupils are supplied with text-books up to, and including, the fourth grade, with a limit of fifteen dollars expendi- ture per school year. Kirby's Digest, 1904, §§ 7596-7606, § 7684, subd. (j); Session Laws of 1911, regular session, no. 231, § 2; no. 315, §§2, 3; no. 431, § 16; and extra session, no. 1, § 110. CALIFORNIA The state furnishes text-books free to all the pupils and teachers of its day and evening schools. A constitutional amendment of 1912 makes manufacture of the books by the state optional. The state board of education consists of the state superintendent of public instruction, as secretary, and seven other members appointed by the governor for terms of four years. It compiles or causes to be compiled, and manufactures the books. It may secure copy- Repobt of School Book Investigation 171 rights. Subject to its approval, the superintendent of state print- ing has charge of the mechanical work. Other things being equal, preference must be given to text-books originating in California. Books are adopted for periods of four years. The state board en- forces their use throughout the state. Its members in session receive fifteen dollars per day, and traveling expenses. Constitution of California, art. 0, § 7 ; Political Code, §§ 1517-1527; Session Laws of 1913, olis. 328, 364. COLORADO The constitution of the state prohibits the legislature and the state board of education from prescribing text-books for the public schools. Local school boards and high school committees select the books. Adoption is for a period of four years. Books may be provided free to indigent children. At any regular or special meeting a school district may authorize its board to furnish books free to all pupils. Constitution of Colorado, 1876, art. 9, § 16; Mill's Annotated Code of Colorado, 1912, § 6655, sudbs. 2, 0; § 6728, subds. 2, 9. CONNECTICUT The state board of education may direct what books shall be used in the schools of the state. Subject to the exercise of this power, boards of school visitors or town school committees select the text-books. The state board cannot change a text-book oftener than once in five years ; a local board or committee cannot change a book except by a two-thirds vote of its entire membership. A town may furnish text-books free to all its pupils. When twenty legal voters petition, the question of free text-books is voted upon by ballot. Free books are provided in any case for indigent pupils.

DELAWARE The state board of education, consisting of seven members ap- pointed for terms of seven years, one member each year, prescribes text-books for the free schools of the state and makes contracts fixing their prices. County superintendents compile lists of text- books on request of the state board. The school commissioners or trustees of school districts furnish the books free to all ptipils. The state pays for them and charges them to the account of each school 172 New York Depaktment of Efficiency and Economy district less state aid due from the state. Clerks of school districts may sell books at cost. Session Laws of 1898-99, ch. 67, as amended by Session Laws of 1911, oh. 94. FLORIDA The constitution of the state provides that school districts may levy taxes to pay for text-books. The board of commissioners of state institutions, constituting the state text-book commission, selects and adopts for a period of five years a uniform series of text-books for exclusive use by the public schools. The books oifered to the state commission by publishers are passed upon by a special committee of county superintendents and teachers. The commission selects the text-books with due regard to the commit- tee's recommendations. The publishers submit bids, making de- posits as evidence of good faith. The attorney general prepares the contracts. The publishers give bonds and the governor proclaims the adoptions. The state commission may accept manuscripts with proposed type, binding, illustrations, etc. Agencies of the pub- lishers in the several counties distribute the books free of trans- portation, if payment for them is made in advance. Contract prices are printed in the books. Counties furnishing books free to all pupils may delay adoption of the uniform state series until they have occasion to purchase new books. Counties must provide free books for children not over fifteen years of age who are orphans or of the county poor. School ofiicers and teachers must not be pecuniarily interested in the school book business. Constitution of Florida, 1885, art. 12, § 11; General Statutes of 1906, §§ 344, 347, 3731; Session Laws of 1911, chs. 6163, 6178; 1913, eh. 6444; res. no. 9, p. 509. GEORGIA The state board of education is the state school book commission. It appoints five superintendents and teachers to advise it in the selection of text-books. It advertises for bids and makes contracts. Adoptions are for periods of five years. All the public schools of the state must use the adopted books to the exclusion of all others on the same subjects. The contract price and the exchange price are printed on the back of each book. Contractors must state exchange price in bidding, which must not be more than half the contract price. The exchange period is one year. At least one depository station for books is established in each county. Books are transported free to rural communities paying for them in Report of School Book Investigation 173 advance. They must be sold to consumers at the retail contract prices. Publishers or agents making gifts to school authorities are guilty of misdemeanor. A joint legislative committee of 1913 investigated the text-book question. Code of 1911, §§ 1437-1465; Session Laws of 1911, page 94, no. 307, §§ 3, 23; 1913, page 1303. IDAHO The state board of education, consisting of the state superintend- ent and five persons appointed by the governor for terms of five years, one each year, determines how and under what regulations text-books shall be adopted and whether or not they shall be free to pupils and makes regulations for supplying them. In exercise of these broad powers, conferred upon it in 1913, the board has (September, 1914) adopted text-books compulsory on the elemen- tary schools of all districts of the state, except districts with more than twenty teachers which it has permitted to make their own selections. It has adopted only a recommended list for high schools and has left the definite selection to each high school. Its contracts with publishers have defined retail, exchange and net prices, estab- lished regulations for exchanges, required retail prices to be plainly stamped on the books, limited transportation charges and named five book depositories within the state. The board has not issued any order concerning free text-books. Most of the larger schools provide free text-books ; many of the smaller ones do not. Session Laws of 1913, oh. 77, § 7, subd. 3; ch. 115, § 22. ILLINOIS The constitution of the state forbids interest of teachers and public officers in the sale, proceeds or profits of books used in the schools with which they are connected. Local school boards select the text-books and enforce their use. A text-book cannot be changed oftener than once in four years. Districts purchase books for children whose parents are unable to buy them. The law of 1909 regulating the adoption, use and prices of school text-books has been declared unconstitutional. Constitution of Illinois, 1870, art. 8, § 4; Hurd's Revised Statutes, 1912, ch. 122, § 114, subd. 8, §§ 127, 133, 134; Session Laws of 1909, page 416 (Polzin V. Rand, McNally and Company, 250-561, Ann. Cas., 1912 B. 471.) INDIANA The state board of education selects, or procures the compilation of, a series of text-books for elementary schools. The books must 174 New York Department of Efficiency and Economy contain nothing of a partisan or sectarian character. Use of the selected primer is optional, for cities exceeding five thousand in population. Names and prices are printed on the outsides of the book covers. Contracts are for periods not exceeding five years. The state board selects uniform text-books for high schools under the same regulations as for elementary schools and vi^ith the addi- tional power to fix price limits. The high schools are limited to a single text-book in certain subjects and may choose from elective books in others, the elective books being in science and agriculture, four to each subject. Advertisments for bids from publishers, authors and persons willing to undertake the compilation of a book or series of books are the basis of selection and contract. The publishers give bonds for observance of agreements and conditions, make affidavits that they are not parties to combinations and agree to sell as low in Indiana as anywhere else. Local parties handling books are subject to bonding and certain penalties. Each county superintendent appoints a dealer or merchant within his county to act as depository for sale and distribution of the books, except where existing contracts under former law make school trustees depositories. iSaid depository merchants give bonds or other evi- dences of financial responsibility to the publishers, receive a dis- count of fifteen per cent from the contract price and sells to other local dealers at a discount of ten per cent. Books must be sold to the pupils at the contract price. Burn's Annotated Indiana Statutes, Revision of 1914, §§ 6320-6375, 6403. IOWA Local scflool boards may adopt, contract for under bids, and buy text-books for all studies of the public schools and sell the same to the pupils at cost. They are under bond for right care and dis- position of the books. When one-third of the school directors of a county petition for a vote by the electors of the county on county uniformity of text-books, the question is submitted at the next general election. If the vote is favorable, a county board of educa- tion adopts and contracts under bids for books to be used through- out the county. Cities and towns do not participate in the vote on county uniformity. They adopt the county board's selections, or not, at their option. The county board makes rules for the use of the books and arranges for depositories. It may pay for them out of the -county fund and sell them to the school districts at the uni- form prices fixed by contract. The money received from such sales Repoet of School Book Investigation 175 reverts to the county fund. A school corporation may furnish text-books free to all its pupils by vote of its electors on petition of one-third of their number. Code of Iowa, 1897, eh. 15, §§ 2824-2837; Code of Supplement of 1902, ch. 15, §§ 2831, 2832; Code Supplement of 1907, ch. 15, §§ 2828, 2831, 2832. KAMSAS The state manufactures text-books for the public schools. The text-book plant is an addition to the previously existing state printing plant. The state printer supervises the work. The state school book commission, with a permanent secretary at a salary of two thousand dollars, procures copyrights or contracts with authors and publishers on a royalty basis. Use of the state books is compulsory. Supplementary books are prohibited except for purely reference work. The state commission sells the books at cost to school boards either directly or through authorized agents. Districts that do not furnish the books free, must furnish them to the pupils at the prices paid to the commission. Session Laws of 1913, ch. 288. KENTUCKY A state text-book commission selects books for all the schools except the schools of first, second, third and fourth class cities. The governor is its chairman and the superintendent of public instruction its secretary. Its other members are educators, one from each state normal faculty, one from the university faculty and one from each appellate court district. The governor appoints them for terms of four years. The state text-book commission advertises for bids for furnishing books to the common schools and the high schools for five year periods. Bids must state list, net contract, exchange and retail prices. The commission adopts a uniform series or system. Subject matter, mechanical qtialities and general availability of books are considered, as well as prices. Contracts stipulate that retail prices must not exceed retail prices anywhere else in the United States. Publishers must agree to reduce prices in Kentucky whenever reductions are made elsewhere. Books must be equal in quality to the samples deposited with the state superintendent. The state superintendent prepares, and the attorney-general approves, a form for contracts. County and city boards of education appoint dealers at a compensation of fifteen per cent of the retail prices less transportation and other charges. Price statements are printed on the outsides of book covers. 176 New Yobk Depaktment of Efficiency and Economy Dealers overcharging or refusing to exchange are subject to a fine of from one hundred to one thousand dollars. Lists of books and prices are distributed annually. The use of supplementary books is permissible. Publishers pay filing fees and give bonds for observance of conditions in amounts of from one thousand to fifty thousand dollars. They are forbidden to contribute to campaign funds. They must file sworn statements denying combination to control prices or restrict competition. Their agents are excluded from the executive sessions of the commission. Members of the state text-book commission and local officers and teachers are sub- ject to severe penalties for corrupt practices. Carroll's Kentucky Statutes, § 4421a, subds. 4, 13; Session Laws of 1914, ch. 11, p. 34. LOUISIANA The state board of education must strictly enforce text-book uniformity throughout the state. A state text-book committee, consisting of the state superintendent of public instruction and seven members appointed by the governor, one from each congres- sional district, recommends lists of text-books, ranking them accord- ing to merit into three classes. The state board of education adopts the books from these recommended lists. It calls for bids, awards contracts and locates book depositories. The text-book committee may also recommend library and reference books for school use. Text-books are adopted for periods of six years. Books for not more than three subjects in the grades, nor more than two major and five minor subjects in the high schools can be changed at any one adoption, except that any book can be changed at any time on petition of forty parish school boards. School officers and teachers must not act as agents for, nor accept gifts, etc., from parties furnishing books and supplies to the schools. The parish of Orleans furnishes books free to indigent pupils at an expendi- ture limited to a total of two thousand dollars per year.

MAINE The school committee of each town selects the text-books. A book cannot be changed within five years after adoption except by vote of the town. The town furnishes the books free to all pupils, including high school pupils. Parents or guardians may purchase books at their own expense. The school committee makes rules Repobt of School Book Investigation 177 for the distribution and preservation of the books. The cost of books destroyed or lost is inserted on the tax lists against parents or guardians failing to make good the amounts. The school com- mittee may regulate sale of books, appoint agents and fix retail prices, which must be marked on the title pages. School boards must not purchase second hand books. The state superintendent of schools provides books for schools of unorganized townships. Revised Statutes of Maine, 1903, ch. 15, |§ 19-21, 35, 96; Session Laws of 1905, ch. 48; 1909, ch. 131. MARYLAND The state appropriates one hundred and fifty thousand dollars per year for free furnishing of books to the pupils of the public schools. The amount is apportioned to localities according to number of enrolled pupils. Books must be provided to indigent pupils. Free books are furnished to all pupils of the first grade, then the pupils of the second grade, and so on, until the fund gives out. The county school commissioners and the Baltimore city school commissioners adopt uniform books for the counties and the city. The books are purchased after competitive bidding at the lowest possible prices. Parents and pupils may purchase text- books. The county boards must furnish to the state board of education each year the title, publisher's name and net price of each text-book. Bagby's Annotated Code of Maryland, 1911, ch. 10, §§ 25, 28, 67-71, 122, pages 1722, 1724, 1734, 1747. MASSACHUSETTS Local school committees adopt the text-books, purchase them at town expense and loan them free to all pupils. Pupils may pur- chase them from the committees at not to exceed cost. The com- mittees may present three text-books used during the year to each pupil graduating from a grammar school. Changes in text-books are made on two-thirds vote of a whole school committee, notice having been given at a previous meeting. School books are exempt from execution sale to an amount of fifty dollars. Revised Laws of Massachusetts, 1902, ch. 41, §§ 6, 7; ch. 42, §§ 34-38; ch. 177, § 34. MICHIGAN Persons offering school text-books for adoption, sale or exchange within the state must file copies with the state superintendent of public instruction, together with sworn statements of list, whole- 178 New York Dbpaktment of Efficiency and Economy sale and exchange prices, and must give bond in not less tlian two thousand dollars nor more than ten thousand dollars as guarantee of uniform low price, standard quality, sale in Michigan as low as in other states and non-membership in combinations to control prices or restrict competition. The state superintendent publishes annually and sends to each school district a list of the books so registered and of their prices. District agencies may not offer books on this list for sale at prices exceeding by ten per cent, nor retail dealers at prices exceeding by fifteen per cent the net whole- sale prices. Text-books are selected from the state superin- tendent's list by the district school boards. Once adopted, they may not be changed for five years, except with consent of a majority of the qualified voters of the district at an annual or a special meeting. Districts ptirchase books of families moving away at fair prices based on the condition of the books. They may furnish books free to all pupils. Booksellers must not bribe teachers or school officers. Violations of the text-book laws are punishable by fine not exceeding five hundred dollars or by im- prisonment not exceeding three months or by both such fine and imprisonment.

The state superin- tendent publishes and distributes lists of the authorized books. The publishers also file copies of their books with every county superintendent. The state has county uniformity. The adopting authority is a county text-book commission consisting of the county board of education, ex ofiicio, in counties having such a board, and of the county superintendent and two teachers selected in the same way as members of a board of education in other counties. The county text-book commission makes its selections from the author- ized state list furnished by the state superintendent.

OKLAHOMA The state constitution requires the legislature to provide a uniform system of text-books for the common schools of the state. The books are selected by a state text-book commission consisting of the governor and six persons appointed by him for terms of five years. Its unsalaried members receive six dollars per day and traveling expenses. The commission advertises for thirty days for submission of sealed bids and samples of books to its secretary. Accepted bidders must give bonds for fulfilment of conditions. The price of a book must be as low in Oklahoma as in other states. Each book must be marked with the contract price. Contracts contain stipulations making them terminable at any time by legis- lative act or at the end of any school year by the commission. Publishers and their agents must file a sworn statement in the office of the superintendent of public instruction and in the office of the clerk of the district court in each county in which they pro- pose to do business setting forth the nature and character of their corporation, partnership, firm or association and affirmatively showing that its existence and business relation does not violate the state's laws governing text-books and supplies. Combinations to fix prices or restrict competition are punishable by fine of three hundred to one thousand dollars. The use of the books contracted for is compulsory upon all schools of the state up to, and including, the twelfth grade. Local school authorities report the text-book needs of their schools to the county superintendents who in turn report to the state superintendent not later than the tenth of August each year. With the approval of the state board of edu- cation, the state text-book commission may publish the books when it appears that private publishers have combined upon prices or have made proposals that are unreasonable. It may offer prizes for manuscripts, employ persons to compile books, hire plates, lease copyrights and agree to pay royalties. Counties must fur- nish books free to indigent pupils.

Eepoet of School Book Investigation 185 OREGON The governor appoints a state board of text-book commis- sioners, five in number, for a term of four years. The board meets in June of every sixth year. Its sessions are limited to fifteen days. Each of its members receives one hundred dollars and mile- age for attendance at a meeting. It advertises for bids and adopts text-books for compulsory use by all the public schools of the state, including text-books for the required two years high school course. It reports its adoptions to the state board of education, which makes the contracts. In August succeeding the adoptions, the state superintendent distributes a list of the books to the school olficers of each county. Adoptions are for periods of six years. School boards of districts of the first class and districts maintain- ing high schools may adopt and contract for additional books for courses not covered or provided for by the state board of text-book commissioners. Any district school board may, on its owr motion, and must, on petition of a certain number of voters, submit to the voters of the district the question of furnishing text-books free. Districts providing free books must disinfect them at the begin- ning of each term. School boards may loan text-books to indigent pupils.

PENNSYLVANIA Local boards of school directors purchase text-books and sup- plies and furnish them to all pupils free of cost. The state has four classes of school districts based on population. A district of the first class has five hundred thousand inhabitants or over. The new school code of 1911 set limit on text-book charges in districts of the first class. Text-books in districts of the second, third and fourth classes continue in use not less than five years. When a district has a siiperintendent or a supervising principal, it is his duty to consult with his teachers and recommend text- book adoptions or changes to the board. The board can act with- out his recommendation, or contrary to it, only by a two-thirds vote. The affirmative vote of a majority of the board, duly re- corded in such manner as to show how each member has voted, is necessary to the adoption of a text-book. The board may allow pupils to use the books during vacations. Superintendents, teach- ers and school employees must not act as book agents. Penalties are prescribed for bribe^giving and bribe-taking.

Every town must purchase text-books and other school supplies and loan them free of charge to all pupils, subject to such rules as its school committee may prescribe. Discarded books may be given to the pupils. Books may become the private property of pupils who complete their use. Two-thirds of the entire school committee of a town, voting in favor thereof, may change a text- book, but not oftener than once in three years, except with consent of the state board of education. In the city of Providence, a majority of the school committee may make text-book changes, notice having been given in writing at a previous meeting. Super- intendents and school officers must not be pecuniarily interested in the introduction of text-books.

The state board contracts with publishers relative to book prices and 'depositories. The pviblishers give bonds for fulfilment of terms. Adoptions are for periods of five years, conditional on observance of contracts by publishers. Except in certain counties, county boards of education provide pupils with text-books at cost. Books are on sale at the offices of county superintendents at first cost and at depositories elsev.here at not to exceed ten per cent above first cost. School trustees may purchase books for indigent pupils to the extent of five per cent of the annual school budget.

The state has county uniformity. Text-books compulsory upon the schools of each county are selected by a county board of education, consisting of the county superin- tendent, the presidents of the city and town boards of education, one representative from the school board of each commissioner's district and certain county officers. The county board of education advertises for bids from publishers twenty days before it meets to select the boolcs. The board of county commissioners contracts with the publishers of the adopted books relative to prices and deposi- tories. Adoption of a book is for a period of five years, condi- tioned on observance of the contract by the publisher, but petition of two-thirds of the school boards of the county effects a change at any time. Books may not be sold to ptipils by depositories at more than ten per cent above cost. Every contract must stipulate that whenever the state prints a sufficient number of copies of a text-book for a given subject to supply the schools of the county, said contract shall be void relative to the privately published book for that subject upon notice from the governor to the county auditor. The county board provides text-books free to all the pupils of a school corporation upon written petition of a majority of its electors.

TENNESSEE Uniform text-books, compulsory upon all the primary and secondary schools of the state, are selected by a state text-book commission consisting of the governor, the state superintendent of public instruction and three members of the board of education named by the governor for terms of five years. This text-book commission advertises for bids and appoints five county or city superintendents and teachers as a subcommission to report on the merits of sample books. Members of the subcommission receive four dollars per day during attendance, and their traveling ex- penses. The text-book commission gives weight to their report in making its selections. It contracts for sale of the books to con- sumers. The publishers must agree to sell books in Tennessee for prices as low as in other states, to hold the state not liable for payment of any sum whatever and to print exchange and retail 188 New Yoek Depaetment oe Efeiciency and Economy prices in the books.

TEXAS The president of the College of Industrial Arts, the president of the University of Texas and the state superintendent of public instruction, acting as a committee, nominate thirty teachers of the state to the governor, five of whom must be primary teachers. From the thirty, the governor appoints nine, one of whom must be a primary teacher, to constitute the state text-book board for a period of two years. From a second and different list of teachers nominated by the same committee, the governor fills any vacancies in the board, that may occur. The governor is chairman and the state superintendent secretary of said board. Persons interested in the book business are ineligible to membership therein. The merits of text-books must be presented by publishers or agents at sessions of the board and not otherwise. The publishers submit bids and make deposits to insure good faith. Numerous provi- sions of law regulate the character of the books. Contracts con- tain stipulations relative to exchange. The president of the Col- lege of Industrial Arts, the president of the University of Texas and the state superintendent of public instruction are also a board of revision with power to order changes necessary to keep books up to date. An order for changes in a book is made upon a year's notice and not oftener than once in two years. Publishers give bonds for fulfilment of agreements and conditions. Prices must be as low as anywhere else in the United States and must be printed on the backs of the books. Publishers file sworn statements to effect that they have not violated the state's anti- trust laws.

WEST VIRGINIA The constitution of the state prohibits persons connected with the public schools from being interested in the sale, proceeds or profits of books used therein. Uniform text-books, compulsory upon all the schools of the state, except the schools of cities and independent districts of thirty-five hundred inhabitants or over, are selected by a state school book commission consisting of the state superintendent of free schools and eight experienced edu- cators, citizens of the state, appointed by the governor for terms of five years. Every fifth year, the state superintendent advertises for bids and the commission meets in May to make the selections and contracts. The publishers make deposits as security for good faith in bidding and give bonds for observance of agreements and conditions. Retailers must not take a profit in excess of twenty per cent. Reductions of price elsewhere in the United States must be followed by equal reduction in West Virginia. Any school district may purchase books and furnish them free to its pupils. In such case, the secretary of the board of education and the teachers distribute and care for the books. Pupils must replace lost or destroyed books. School oiKcers and teachers must not be interested in the text-book business. Davies' " Facts in Civil Government-" is a supplementary and optional text-book at fifty-five cents a copy.

WISCONSIN District school boards and city boards of education determine what text-books shall be used and file and post lists of them. Books, so selected, continue in use for periods of three years. Alternative to this prevalent district and city selection, the law provides a plan for county uniformity, of which little or no use is 192 New Yoek Department of Efficiency and Economy made. The annual county convention of school boards under this plan, may, by a vote in which each district casts one ballot, adopt county or superintendent district uniformity of text-books, in which case the convention elects a so-ealled county board of edu- cation for selection of text-books. Said county board consists of either five or three members chosen for terms of four years. Each member must be a legally qualified teacher of five years' experi- ence and must make oath that he is not financially interested in the school book business. The county board meets at the county seat once in four years to select the uniform text-books for the county. Books, so selected, cannot be changed oftener than once in five years. Their use is compulsory upon all districts, except districts and cities maintaining free high schools and state graded schools of the first class. Merit is the main point in text-book selections. The county board advertises its meetings. Sample bookg and lists are preserved in the county superintendent's office. Pub- lishers give bonds for observance of conditions and agreements. The county board arranges for book depositories. Its members are reimbursed for their expenses. Every school district in the state must vote on the question of free text-books at each annual meeting. Five legal voters may require the vote to be taken by ballot. District boards may furnish books free to indigent pupils. The state superintendent and the state board of health approve text-hooks on physiology and hygiene. The state superintendent prepares and furnishes to each teacher a text-book on the preven- tion of accidents. School officers and teachers must not act as book agents or solicitors.

WYOMING The constitution of the state prohibits the legislature and the superintendent of public instruction from prescribing text-books for use in the public schools. Publishers desiring to sell books in the state must file sample copies and prices in the office of the state superintendent of public instruction, furnish bonds for observance of agreements and conditions and promise to sell in Wyoming as cheaply as anywhere else in the United States. Local boards of school directors select text-books from the licensed list. Free furnishing of text-books is compulsory iipon every school district in the state. The superintendent of public instruction prepares and distributes a compulsory form for contracts between Eepokt of School Book Investigation 193 district boards and publishers. Adoptions are for periods not exceeding five years. Combination of a contracting publisher with other parties to raise the price of text-books renders his contract void. District boards may employ local dealers to handle the books. District clerks report the names of the adopted text-books each year. School officers and teachers must not act as book- agents or solicitors, under penalty of fine and removal from their positions.

PART 11 METHOD OF INVESTIGATION Chapter Y67 of the Laws of 1913 directed the Commissioner of Efficiency and Economy " to conduct an investigation and gather statistics regarding the cost of providing free text books in the schools of the State, supported by the State and by its sev- eral cities, towns, villages and school districts" and to report to the Legislature. Scope of the Work A preliminary survey of the field to be covered disclosed that the task was both extensive and difficult. It was ascertained that there were 10,017 rural school districts in the State, and 51 separate city and 38 separate village school systems each organized under a superintendent and containing approximately 5,000 sepa- rate schools. There was no complete record of the division of pupils by grades for the entire State, although the city and village school systems kept such records for the schools under their local supervision. The Education Department furnished a list of the 207 district superintendents of schools, and from these men was obtained, by correspondence, the list of school teachers and principals, amounting to approximately 15,000 names, for the purpose of securing exact, first hand information on which to base the statistics. This vast educational system, dealing with more than 2,000,000 children of school age in the State, is divided into two main divisions, the elementary schools covering eight grades and the secondary schools covering four grades. No general sta- tistics as to the number of books in use in this system throughout the State were available in the Education Department or elsewhere. There were no books prescribed or recommended for the use of the pupils throughout the State, nor was there any list of all the books in use, anywhere in existence. The State exercises no control whatever over the selection of books. Therefore, the work was not only very broad as to scope, but it was original as to statistics. It began, necessarily, with the individual classrooms and class teachers as the sources of information. [195] 196 New Yobk Depabtment of Efficiency and Economy Securing the Information Required For the text-book investigation there was established in the Department of Efficiency and Economy a separate staff in charge of an experienced accountant. The investigation was begun on July 12, 1913. At the beginning, a number of accountants and examiners were engaged for a temporary period, and these were sent to the various cities of the State to confer with the directors and superintendents, and to outline the plan of the investigation. The employees engaged in this work were all selected for tempo- rary appointment from special lists authorized by the State Civil Service Commission. Preliminary forms were sent to the District Superintendents to obtain the names and postoffice addresses of the teachers of the schools under their supervision, and, pending the return of these lists, the forms and schedules of questions upon which all the information required was to be entered were prepared and printed. As rapidly as the addresses of teachers could be secured these forms were distributed, accompanied by explicit circular letters of instruction. These were followed from time to time by other circular letters and by thousands of individual letters, either urging that certain forms be filled out and returned without unrea- sonable delay, or giving additional explanations and examples that would assist the most inexperienced persons who had to do with furnishing information. The questions were worded so as to secure explicit answers as to attendance and registration in the schools, the grades existing and the number of pupils in each grade, the studies in each grade, and the text-books in use in each grade. Teachers were requested to give the titles of all the books used, the names of the publishers, the date of publication, the date of the adoption of the several text books in use, and the catalogue prices of these books. In order that the returns might be uniform, and tbe teacbers be put to the minimum amount of effort, the list of subjects taught in the classrooms was ascertained and printed on the blanks, and the general classification of books as well, such as " Eirst Header ". " Second Reader ", "Arithmetic ", "Algebra ", etc. The teacher was requested to insert the number of pupils using first readers, the exact title or titles of the first readers in use, and the name of the publishers, the date of publication, the name of the seller, and the date these readers were adopted as part of tbe course of study; the number of each text-book purchased in the years 1910-1913 ; Eepoet of School Book Investigation 197 the number in actual use in the clasa and the number in stock. Each teacher was asked to indicate on the form provided whether the text-books were free to the pupils or were furnished by the pupils. All other subjects of study were covered in the same manner as described for " First Keaders ". The books so listed included " Second Readers ", and all the other grades of readers, arithmetics, algebras, histories, English, French, German and Latin text-books, geographies, grammars, text-books on physiology and hygiene, spelling books, commercial subject text-books, and provision was made for reporting on miscellaneous and optional studies. On separate forms sent to all of the 10,017 rural school districts, other statistics regarding attendance of pupils for the past five years and information concerning related subjects was requested. Among the questions asked on this form were : Is there a special school tax ? If so, what is the amount of the tax ? How is the tax levied ? What do you find the average life of a new text-book to be ? How long do you estimate a new book will last, on the average, before it has to be replaced ? Answer years. State the amounts actually expended for text-books for the fol- lowing years, 1908, 1909, 1910, 1911, 1912, 1913. The teachers were specifically requested not to include the cost of supplies of any kind in the above amounts. The signature of the person giving the information requested was required on the returns, whether teacher, principal, or dis- trict superintendent, so that any errors, discrepancies or omissions could be corrected by subsequent correspondence. Each form that was sent out to any person bore an individual key number corre- sponding to the mailing list so that, if by any chance the signature was omitted on the return, the source of the information could be traced by referring to the mailing list key numbers. The school system of the City of ISTew York presented a great problem in itself. Before the individual units of that system were approached, the co-operation of Hon. Thomas W. Churchill, President of the Board of Education, and of Dr. William H. Max- well, City Superintendent of Schools, was obtained. Several con- ferences between the investigators and these oflB.cials were held. As a result, a special set of blanks was prepared for the schools in the City of New York. This blank had the approval of the 198 New Yoek Department of Efficiency and Economy Superintendent and the Committee of the Board of Education in charge of text-books. The forms were distributed to the schools by the investigators in person and explanations were given to the principals so that there would be the minimum of effort and the maximum of returns. The results were highly satisfactory. The secondary schools of the State, which were listed by the district superintendents and the city educational authorities in their preliminary reports to the Department of EfSciency and Economy, received special blank forms upon which to make reports concerning the varieties and cost of text-books in actual use. The same general line of questions and the same methods were em- ployed for the secondary schools as were employed for the ele- mentary schools, and every effort possible was made, through per- sonal visits of the investigators and through correspondence, to secure the most accurate and complete returns. It was realized that all the elements of the school population of the State would not be covered by tabulation of the registration of the public schools, because a more or less definite proportion of the total number of children of school age attend denominational and private schools. To make a complete foundation, therefore, for a broad calculation of the general effect of free text-books in the public schools, as much information as possible should be ob- tained from all sources, including these schools. The Constitution expressly prohibits State aid to denominational schools, but no misunderstanding about that prohibition interfered with the gath- ering of statistics regarding attendance, registration and other matters connected with these schools. In fact, the necessary in- formation was obtained, in most instances, very readily. The value of this information may be judged by the results of the census showing that over 13 per cent of the total school population of New York State is enrolled in the denominational schools. The authorities of the Roman Catholic Church were particularly help- ful in giving both attendance figures and cost records covering more than 200,000 pupils in the parochial schools. No books having to do with religious instruction in these schools were listed or entered into the calculations. The possible effect of increased attendance in the public schools if free text-books were supplied by the State, caused by the entrance of some of the pupils now attending the private and denominational schools, is mentioned in Part I of this report. Eepoet of School Book Investigation 199 Collating the Information and Arriving at the Results When all of the cities and villages having centralized school systems and Boards of Education, had been informed of the plan and scope of the investigation and were conversant "with the law authorizing the investigation, and when all of the 10,017 rural school districts had been put in possession of the blanks and forms, the majority of the special investigators were notified that their services were no longer required. A new organization of the staff had to be made. A force of approximately thirty clerks was en- gaged to tabulate the statistics received. All of these clerks were appointed from the Civil Service eligible lists. They were placed under the direction of the statistician of the Department of Effi- ciency and Economy and were given adding and calculating ma- chines and other modern devices to secure rapidity and accuracy in their work. The assistance of Mr. George A. Stevens, Assistant Chief Statistician of the State Department of Labor was obtained from time to time, in an advisory capacity. The returns of forms, four from the elementary schools and four from the secondary schools, involved the handling of 60,000 separate sheets. Each sheet contained hundreds of figures, and the total entries ran well up into the millions. In tabulating alone, 250,000 cards were used to which the entries were transferred. All of these entries had to be checked up, tabulated, and entered on various forms of summary tables before the final summaries could be secured. The work was very exacting, required many comparisons, corrections through correspondence and in other ways, and absorbed the full time of the staff assigned for eleven months. Keturns covering 95.3 per cent of the pupils in the public schools in the school year of 1912-1913 were received. This represented 1,413,652 pupils out of a total of 1,483,947. The 70,295 who • were not reported were scattered throughout all the counties of the State in very small schools. The omission of detailed reports on these pupils did not affect the result, as the registration of the total number of pupils was known, and was included in the final calculations. Every possible effort was made, by correspondence with teachers, district superintendents, and even with school trus- tees, to obtain complete returns, and was continued until it was apparent that all possible had been secured without further per- sonal canvass by employees of the department. As there was less than five per cent missing, this was deemed unnecessary. 200 New York Department of Efficiency and Economy Results of the Investigation The essential results of the investigation of the cost of supplying free text-books to the pupils in all of the public schools of the State are embodied in Part I of this report. The method of computing the results in terms of expenditure is therein clearly set forth. Much information concerning the whole subject of text books was secured, during the course of the investigation. The reports demonstrate that there is absolutely no uniformity of text-books, throughout the public schools of the State. Not even within the same counties nor within the same supervisory districts, is there uniformity. It would be diflRcult to point to any two schools in the rural districts where the pupils are using the same text-books, class by class or grade by grade. In Broome county, for example, there are twenty-six different kinds of arithmetic text-books in use, eighty-seven varieties of readers and a proportionate number of varieties of other books. There are sixty varieties of geographies in use in the rural elementary schools, seventy-one different his- tories and fifty different text-books in physiology, to mention a few examples, of which more are shown in the tables accompanying this report. A number of the text-books still in use were published twenty to thirty years ago. They have been handed down from genera- tion to generation, and were reported as being used in classes in some of the rural district schools of this State. There is no uni- formity apparent among the schools districts that use the works of the same author. A list of text-books in use in approximately one-half of the rural district schools is made an exhibit in this report and shows very plainly the lack of uniformity disclosed by the investigation. The State Education Department prescribes no list of text-books to use in connection with the course of study contained in the Syllabus, but in the cities the educational authori- ties have usually catalogued a list of books approved for use. Such* a list prepared in the City of New York for the use of the public schools contains 4,031 titles of authorized books. Cost of Text-Book Investigation, July, 1913, to January, 1915.

A transcript of the original detailed tabulation of the books in use in the schools of the city of New York, upon which was com- puted the unit costs employed in this report, has been bound, and one copy placed in the New York State Library at Albany and one copy placed in the New York Public Library, Fifth Avenue and Forty-Second Street, New York City, for preservation and reference. The result of this tabulation is presented in Table 5, Part I of this report. The detailed list of publisher's titles would be of no general value, and would have required more than one hundred and fifty pages to publish. TABLES I.

[203] The county tables shown herein contain the detailed attendance reports received from the teachers and principals in charge of the various schools and school systems of the state. In the summary appended to each county the percentages indicating the distribution of the reported attendance figures into grades, have been applied to the total registration to secure the same proportional distribution. The registration figures were secured from the reports of the District Superintendents to the Department of Education. To the registration of the rural elementary schools was added the data for the cities and villages where there was an organized school system, under the direction of a superintendent.
