State school fund gains edge in bond market
The Kansas state school fund commission manages about ten million dollars and can buy bonds issued by counties cities and school districts at par before offering them to the market. With cheap money and large demand for par purchases the commission exerts a buying privilege but cannot sell at a premium, benefiting common schools based on enrollment. The commission is chaired by the secretary of state and includes the attorney general and state superintendent of public instruction.
