s PER CENT LIMIT
ON SCHOOL B0NDS;
ALLEGED TOO Low

Scores OF Indiana school units are
pressing Jesse E Eschbach, chief ex-
aminer for the state board Of &C
counts, for a solution of the situation
in which they find themselves rela-
tive to the sale Of school bonds.
The situation becomes Of interest
to Richmond by virtue OF the tmpend-
ing issue OF bonds to provide for jun
for high schools. Wayne county cor
porations have planned several new
buildings, for which bond issues may
be required.
In line with the better school move
ment, both the state board Of health
and the state department of public
instruction have recommended many
changes in school buildings.
New school houses have been pro-
posed, consolidated school buildings
are needed, furnaces should be re-
paired and sewers must be laid or re-
laid.
Six Per Cent Far Too Low
The improvements recommended
can be financed only by bond issues.
The law permits only six per cent in
terest on such bonds, and six per cent
public bonds are almost unmarketable
in Indiana.
The board Of accounts has no au-
thority to authorize the issuance Of
seven per cent salable bonds instead
OF the legal interest bonds.
Ms. Eschbach looks to the pro-
posed special session of the legisla-
ture for relief. He says that if this
does not effect a change, he will call
conference of public officials and
agree to overlook, in examinations of
public records, all proper issues Of
bonds bearing seven per cent inter-
