Warning Given to Textbook Firms by Gov’r Ehringhaus (Continued from Page One.) the purchase of books by children and parents and not by the State, with the result that the State can ignore these contracts at any time and make new ones with publishers, or else buy in the open market. “Adoptions now existing relate man ifestly to books to be purchased by the children or parents and all con tracts were made in contemplation of the right of the General Assembly to change the law,’’ Vhe governor said in the statement he issued. “ They have no reference to purchases by the State itself as contemplated by the new law. If publishers of adopt eJ hooks refuse to cooperate or con form to the new law, then the State may be compelled to purchase other texts. It will not hesitate to do what is necessary to carry out the leg islative will and to provide for the school patrons an adequate and eco nomical plan of textbook rentals and distribution in keeping with the leg islative act.” New System Certain Governor Ehringhaus also said that the textbook rental system will be put into operation “in time for the opening of the next school year un less blocked by the refusal of the pub lishers to cooperate.” But with many schools already open and others scheduled to open almost weekly between now and the middle of September, it is expected many schools will not be able to have rental textbooks this school ye;r and that unless the commission and the publishers get together with in a very few days, the possibility fob' having rental textbooks in any' of the ; schools this year will be Very slim. ?- This is exactly what the textbook’ companies are playing for,, it is erally conceded, since virtually all of. the publishers fought, the rental ! bilM| vigorously in the recent session of General Assembly;, They djit succeedt in delaying action and in ’ making changes in it so that the bill which finally passed was merely the shell of. the original rental textbook bill in troduced in the House. Now if the t eXi-honVc-p trbl ssh er s-can -delay HJi e.in: . stallation of the rental system anoth er year they will have won anothei* point. Chle' Difference The principal difference between the textbook publishers and the ren lal textbook commission is over the prices to he for books and over whether or not the textbook commis sion is bound by the old contracts. The publishers are trying to hold the State to these former contracts, de spite the fact that they were enter ed into when the old retail sale sys tem was in operation and when they were handled through the State school book depository here, which acted as the agent for the publish ers in distributing books, making col lections and assuming all risks in their distribution and sale. The new rental textbook law abol ished this State depository, which collected 10 per cent of the selling price of every book sold in the State for its services. And since under the rental system the publishers will assume no risks, make no sales on assignment and need no agent to make collections, hut will be paid in cash by the State, the rental text book commission maintains that the publishers should sell to it at prices somewhat lower than they formerly hold to retail dealers under the old Stevenson Theatre Tickets Are Now Being Given Away With Purchases At The Follow ing Stores: Roses 5-10-25 C Stores Barker's Drug Store Woolard’s I Hill Top No. 2 Busy Bee Case Evans Bakery H.
