AN1JEHSON Unifccl Press International SACHAMENTO (UPD-- An in- showed today California schools are paying an estimated $350.000 more a year for cxtbooks than they should. Eastern textbook publisher, op- crating under a discount ruling allowed by Ihc California Department of Education, have for upwards of 30 years been permitted lo charge California high school districts 5 per cent more for books than other states'pay. Assemblyman Glenn E.

lidge. It-Fcllon, first learned of the discriminatory pricing schedules from a retired official ot a prominent textbook publishing firm. A check showed that all states are granted a 25 cent discount on the purchase of high school textbooks, hut in California the discount is only 20 per cent because textbook publishers are allowed the 5 per cent markup to compensate for "transportation and marketing." Checks Freight Costs However, a check of freight rates from an eastern city where several large publishing houses are located showed the cost of shipping an average weight textbook lo California is 8 cents a copy. On a textbook selling for $3.83, the publishers got almost 20 cents lo cover their transportation and marketing costs. "This certainly is something the Ways and Means Committee of the legislature should look into," Coolidge said.

"We are letting $350.000 a year slip through our fingers--and it has been going on since 1929." With the help of investigators from the legislative analyst's office, Coolidge compared freight rales and prices for high school texts in Texas. The difference in freight costs for an average size text shipped from Cincinnati to Dallas or to San Francisco was only four cents--yet Texas high sclioots get the full 25 per cent discount while California schools get. only 20 ier cent. Coolidge advocated outright re peal of the law which permits textbook publishers to exercise The retired publishing house of iclal originally wrote the Department of Education to attempt lo gel them lo repeal the 5 per cent discount which he called discriminatory and illegal.
