Book excerpt: Excerpt from Survey of Financial Administration of the Public Schools of Arizona During the session of the Fifth State Legislature, the criticism was frequently made that the lack of reliable information of a state wide character upon the financial administration of the schools, made it difficult to ascertain their needs. In the absence of adequate records covering a period of years, such information could be best made available through a survey conducted by an impartial agency; and at the request of Governor Thomas E. Campbell and the State Superintendent this was authorized by the State Board of Education at its meeting August 23, 1922. After a careful investigation the work was entrusted to the firm of Frazer and Torbet, Accountants and Auditors of Chicago and New York, who were selected as being peculiarly prepared for such service through their experience as consulting experts for large business concerns in both cities, their connection with the University of Chicago, and their successful conduct of similar surveys in other states. In making their investigations they were instructed to criticize thoroughly and impartially. This report printed in the exact form submitted to the State Board of Education is the result. It is presented to the members of the legislature and to the people of the state in the belief that its careful analyses, and constructive suggestions are valuable material upon which to build needed educational legislation. Acknowledgment is made here for the generous cooperation of county and city superintendents, teachers, and school officials throughout the state who gave most willing and valuable assistance to the work of the survey.
