made public his report on the
cost OF pruning scnOOl DooAs
Tor hahsas al the state print
lug plant.
briefly, McNeal's figures show
that all DOCKS sOld during TIT
year l9Ol-Oo by companies nav
ing contracts with the state cost
the pupils SAT-, 342. he esLl-
mates that the same number OF
~ saline books, If printed, bounl
and delivered by the state would
have cost $253,l52.35, This, he
says, would have made a saving
to the pupil Of the state OF $z24,
1885.
In determining the physical cost
Of the books, McNeal figured in
every item of expense in their
manufacture, added Is per cent
cost price for royalties or copy
rights, figured in the cost of en-
larging the state printing plant
and equipping it with the neces-
sary machinery, allowed $4,000
a year for depreciation of ma
chinery, or s per cent, and count.
ed $4,000 per year for addition
al heat and power.
Concerning other allowances
Mr.. McNeal says:
II find that in order to cover
the items of interest on invest
ment, depreciation and cost Of
extra labor and fuel it is neces-
sary to add to the cost of labor
and material used in manufactur.
ing the books about II per cent |
have added to this Is per cent
for copyright and Is per cent to
cover cost of distribution; this
would make a total addition to
the cost of labor and material
of II per cent.
"The books in which this in
vestigatiOn has been made are
ones most commonly used in thu
graded schools. -
McNeal concludes:
"The total cost of all the
books sold as herein before enum
Grated, during the school year,
1000 was $477,342. | estimate
that the total cost of the same
number of books printed, bound
and delivered by the state would
be $3.50, 152.95, a difference in
cost of 1924, 1885.
"It is fair to say that in es-
timating the cost of production
of these books | have estimated
the most of each book in $4,000
lots. The cost per book in no
case would be increased more
than l per cent per book. .
Gin making this investigation
| have not attempted to pass
judgment on the character of tn
books further than from a phys
ical standpoint. incidentally, |
have made some examination of
the books, but | do know that
my Judgment on that matter
would be particularly valuable.
My opinion, however, is that tn
books are fairly good.
81 unhesitatingly say that
there is not a book furnished by
any publishing house today to
the state of Kansas that could
not be sold at less than the price
fixed by statute and still furn-
ish a fine margin of profit.
81 started into this investiga-
ton rather predujiced against tn
idea of state publication. l have
come out of it fully convinced
that it is the thing for the state
to do. The state can put out az
good books as those at present
furnished to the schools at a
saving to the state of more than
100000 per annum, assuming
that the number of books sold
would average up year by year
with the number sold during the
last year."
