Costs Reduce Schools 9 Part of State Cash (Continued from page 1) ther reveals that In Bloom township, while the amount of mone? handled in 1937 was 123 per cent of the amount handled in 1827, the cost of operating the township treasurer's office last year represented 200 per cent of the cost of thnt office ten years earlier. In general, however, the ratio of increase in other township: is shown to be higher. The average for the whole Cook county area 1 is a 269 per cent Increase in costs for a 118 per cent increase in money handled.

A separate table Issued by the association compares the cost per $100 of money handled by the various township treasurers. The cost in Bloom is fixed at seventy- nine cents. The Thornton township cost is listed at sixty-five cents, the Rich cost at eighty-nine cents. One of the lowest costs was in Thornton fractional, twenty-five c-nts per $100, and the highest jj was in Schaumburg township, $611 per $100 find Variation In Casts "Some treasurers," the association's report states, "pasc on much higher amounts and some naturally are much below the average. township WM found which, after paying the cent of operating the township treasurer's office, had but $U7 left for the education of each elementary school child and another townhip had but S7S instead of the 171 which if so frequently mentioned.

"The totals from which figures were tjuten," it is added, "contained, in addition to the so- called state distributive fund from the county saperintentent, the following: (1) balance carried over, (2) receipts on land grants, (3) miscellaneous revenues. Batons Coaseqfceaees "Of the association's re- port further poinU out. It obvious that an office which handles but a tew thousand dollars will coM more per handled than one which handles several million dollars. Keverineleas, the high cost per 100 handled in these small townships is just as serious for the child being- educated in that township as would be such a high cost for the child in the largest township. "When a township, because it Is small, finds It necessary to spend W-U for each $100 handled as the cost of running the office of township treasurer it is time the education of the child in the small township be given special consideration, "No doabt the quatity of the services rendered in some of the afltaee of township treasurers is much higher than in others and worth more money.

Again, the number of school districts in a township is a lector-fat the.coat of operating the treasurer's offlce. It is suggested that citizens' committees should Investigate the special services that are rendered in the high cost and determine whether such high costa reflect an important service not being rendered in the tow wet townships." Otfts Ost (Ma Oat of ST townships in the county, eight are distributing less money than they were in one distributing only forty per cent and another forty-ate per cent of that amount. Of flw 17 township treasurers' oflces, four are operating on a smaller budget ton In 1927, one operating at twenty par cent of that budget another at sixty per cent Why ot Make This a 311 Mi AL CHRISTMAS!
