Appendix: On the Use of Proxy Variables for Educational Quality and Income
Abstract: This 16-page appendix was not included in either the Working Paper or the published version of this paper. It is both a justification for using expenditures per student in the population, by race, as a measure of discrimination and a response to criticisms when I gave the paper at the Economics Department of the University of Chicago that what I considered discrimination was merely a response by school boards to market forces. It contains 4 substantial tables, to go with the 12 tables already included in the published version of the paper, which no doubt explains why the editor of the Journal did not wish to add it to the burden for his almost entirely non-cliometric audience.
