DRAWS REPORT ON SCHOOL BONDS Stansbury Rules Issues May Be Made Payable in N. Y, Jesae Eschbach. chief examiner of the state board of accounts, was preparing freport on Indianapolis school records today tallowing an investigation of alleged irregularities by field examiners of the board. Am opinion received by the board from Ela Stansbury, attorney general, approved the action of the board in makiag certain school bond Issues payable In Jfaar York, but held that the board had no authority In law to pay a com•mteslan on bond sales as it was the duty of the board to sell the bonds. tombers of the board deny that any caasmiesion was paid to New York hanking lnatltuticns for selling bonds, but admit that some issues were made payable in New York, the reason for such action being that the ultimate market soy such securities was in that city. Examiners questioned the propriety of lggulng bonds for the New York market, pointing out that by making them payable at the office of the county treasurer payment of commission on the transaction and exchange on the money could hare been eliminated. The attorney general said there was no statutory place far making the bonds payable and that the board had the right to name New York. SOME TALK! The Bell telephone system recorded 32.309,500 conversations daily during 1919.
