The state faces at least a one million dollar cost increase beyond current contracts ending next September. Secretary Marrs says the total needed will exceed existing contracts by about $1,000,000, while Miss Annie Webb Blanton warns a full shift to new books could reach $1,088,000. She favors extending old contracts another year.
