State School Fund Commission Faces
Year of Travelling.

The recent legislature laid up all
manner Of trouble for members of the
state school fund commission Under
amendments to the school bond law
increases in bond issues equal to 100
per cent, n ay be issued upon approval
of the commission. The trouble which
faces commission members, however
lies in the fact that commission mem
bers may be compelled to visit every
county IN the state.
Under the new law the showing
which a school district must make to
secure approval of increased bond is
sues, is merely formal Yet at least
two members Of the state commits
sion are compelled to visit the county
where the extra bonds are to be voted
and to hear evidence. A number of
trips have already been made. Just
now there ire applications for hear
lngs on file from not less than fifteen
counties.
This week Miss Lizzie F. wooster
state superintendent of public instruc-
ton, and L. J. Pettijohn, secretary of
state. will visit several counties in
southwestern Kansas Several coun-
ties in the Second and Fifth districts
were visited last week The state
superintendent of public instruction,
secretary of state and attorney gen
eral are members of the school fund
commission and at least two of the
commissioner members are compelled
to make trips to the counties desiring
extra bond issues. Under the old
law the records were sent to Topeka
and much time and expense was
saved
