PREFACE
In order that prior year's expenditure data may be useful in making comparisons the expenditure figures in this Budget Report are obligations incurred rather than cash disbursements. Cash disbursement figures are shown fully by agency in the Report of the State Auditor. Since this report is not primarily an accounting statement, expenditures are shown to the nearest dollar, except for Lease Rentals and Grants to Counties for Public Roads.
Included in the Budget Report under Board of Education are schedules showing Federal, State, and local receipts and expenditures of each of the 196 School Systems within the State.
The Budget Report also contains a five-year Capital Outlay proposal as submitted by State Agencies. Because of limitations imposed on estimated revenue in the biennium, funds are recommended for only a few of the most critically needed projects, and these are carried in the General Budget under the appropriate agency.
Further details are available in the budgetary documents of the State Budget Bureau.

Members of the Commission and Advisory Committee are representatives from the fields of art, music, drama and aesthetics; they advise the State on art and aesthetic matters, including but not limited to painting, sculptures, murals, tablets, and monuments which are the property of the State, the design and visual appearance of State buildings and grounds, and the appearance of highways and parks as they contribute to the "Visual Image of Georgia11, and advise the State on ways and means to promote the development of the arts in Georgia.
The Art Commission is presently directing a survey of the cultural resources of the State through a federal study grant. This survey will be used to guide the Commission in planning a Pilot Project to be developed and implemented through 50-50 matching Federal funds. The Pilot Project for the first year of the biennium seeks to encourage appreciation and understanding of the various art forms among the State 1s population.

The program calls for cultural exposure to underdeveloped areas of the State through the use of touring exhibitions and performance utilizing symposiums and workshops throughout the State. The total cost of this phase of the Pilot Project will be $25,000 of which $12,500 will be Federally financed.

The goals of the Pilot Project for 1969 will remain unchanged but the programs will expand. The total cost will be $100,000 of which $50,000 will be Federally financed. This project will provide for art scholarships to teachers of culturally void areas, a touring theater company, and a touring professional musical group as well as a ballet.

The recommended appropriation will provide for continuation and intensification of the present programs and for a cultural Pilot Project.

The Budget Bureau was established by Georgia Laws 1931, amended by Georgia Laws 1962, Code Chapter 40-4, so as to create a new Budget Bureau. It functions as a separate budget unit in the office of the Governor for the purpose of promoting economy and efficiency in the fiscal management of the State government.
The Governor serves as ex-officio Director of the Budget. The administrative head of the Budget Bureau is the State Budget Officer who is appointed by the Governor,
The Budget Bureau develops financial policies and plans as the basis for budget recommendations, analyzes and prepares the Estimate of State Revenue~ and prepares the State Budget for the Governor's presentation to the General Assembly, It is responsible for the administration of the budget after adoption by the General Assembly, and administers a system of expenditure control by requiring each state agency to furnish quarterly operating budgets, supported by work programs, for review prior to approval of allotment fund requests,
It also issues warrants to the State Treasurer, countersigned by the Comptroller General, upon examination and approval of agencies 1 requests for payment on budget allotments,
15

The staff of the Budget Bureau keeps abreast of the programs, plans, and needs of State agencies, and develops plans for improvements and economies in organization and operation of State government.

Included in the Governor 1 s recommendation are funds for a three percent cost of living increase in each year of the biennium for State employees. This recommendation is based on a joint economic study made by the State Merit System and the State Budget Bureau, which shows that the cost of living has been increasing at a rate of more than 3o/o a year, and is likely to continue at this rate for the next two years. If it is determined on July 1, 1967 and again on July 1, 1968, that the consumer price index for the previous year has increased by 3o/o or more, the Budget Bureau will transfer funds to each agency from the appropriation recommended below to provide for a 3o/o cost of living increase for State employees. Should the consumer price index increase be less than 3% each year, the Budget Bureau will transfer to each agency only the amount necessary to provide for the actual percentage increase and the remaining funds in this line item appropriation will lapse to the General Treasury.

The following appropriations are recommended for the Budget Bureau:

The Historical Commission was created by the Act of February 21, 1951 (Chapter 40-8A of the Code of Georgia Annotated) as a department under the Secretary of State. A major duty of the Commission is to promote and increase knowledge of the history of the State by permanently preserving and marking all objects, sites, areas, structures or ruins of historical or legendary significance, and it assists other agencies in making such sites or buildings accessible to the public. As supplementary to such duty, the Commission coordinates its work with, and cooperates with, any other State or Federal agency charged with similar duties or engaged in diffusing information.
The Commission consists of five unsalaried members, all of whom are appointed by the Secretary of State and one whom he designates as its Chairman. The Secretary of State also appoints the Secretary of the Commission who is responsible for executing the directions and policies of the Commission.

The primary goal of the Commission's current program is preservation. This includes locating and marking or restoring and operating historic sites, salvaging and recording historical materials that would be lost otherwise, publicizing and explaining Georgia's heritage, making the results of its research available, and presenting Geargia's history as factually as possible to any interested party.

The recommended appropriation will provide for additional personnel and capital improvements at historic sites. Additional personnel consist of an archaeologist and lab technician to work in a highway salvage program; one clerical employee for the Commission office; one supervisor, one hostess, and two maintenance personnel to staff the the new historic sites, Fort King George and Dahlonega Gold Museurn, to be opened in 1968. Included in the recommendation are additional operating expenses to complement the increased staff and maintain the additional sites.

Inasmuch as the business of six of these Circuits requires more than one Judge, there are now sixty Judges of the Superior Courts, but still only forty Solicitors GeneraL The Superior Courts, which are courts of both law and equity, have exclusive jurisdiction in cases of di-
vorce, in cases respecting titles to land, in equity cases and in criminal cases where the sentence might be penitentiary confinement or death; and they have concurrent jurisdiction in all other classes of cases with the City Courts, Civil Courts and County Courts. Cases from Courts of Ordinary and Justices' Courts can be carried to the Superior Courts on
appeal.
The Judges and Solicitors General of the Superior Courts are elected by the voters of the respective Judicial Circuits at the same general elections at which members of the General Assembly are elected. The term of office of each is for four years (except Atlanta Judicial Circuit

where the term is eight years, Ga. Laws 1956 pages 636 and 637). The minimum qualifications for the office of Judge of the Superior Court are age of thirty years, three years residence in the Circuit and seven years experience in the practice of law; for the office of Solicitor General they are age of twenty-five years and three years experience in the practice of law.

The requested appropriation provides additional funds of $16,000 for travel expense of Judges for court attendance outside horne county; $6,000 for fees to Solicitors' General for court cases, representing plaintiffs under Uniform Reciprocal Enforcement of Support Act; $4, 000 for fees payable to members of Criminal Law Study Committee and Constitutional Revision Commission; and funds for increase in social security payments.

The Superior Courts is the budget unit for appropriations requested as follows:

The Employment Security Agency of the Georgia Department of Labor is charged by the Employment Security Law (Section 54-602 through 54-658 of the Code of Georgia Annotated) with administering an employment security program consisting of an unemployment insurance program and an employment service program.
Unemployment insurance is paid to unemployed workers who qualify under the law and the employment service program maintains a placernent service for Georgia workers and Georgia employers.
These programs are financed by federal grants and an annual appropriation by the Georgia General Assembly of $85,000.
The Commissioner of Labor has authority to appoint a secretary, a director of the Employment Security Agency, the heads of all divisions and bureaus and all other necessary personnel in the Department. He

is the custodian and administrator of the unemployment compensation fund, which is a special fund separate and apart from all public monies or funds of the State.

One important duty is the enforcement of the provisions of the Unemployment Compensation Act of March 29, 1937 which authorized the Commissioner of Labor to set up, in the Department of Labor, a Bureau of Unemployment Compensation, divided into an Employment Services Division and an Unemployment Compensation Division. The Act of March 8, 1945 changed the name of that bureau to Employment Security Agency.

The Employment Security Agency is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

The Department of Law, as presently organized, was created by an Act of the General Assembly in 1943. This Act provides that the Attorney General shall be the head of the Department of Law which is vested with complete and exclusive authority and jurisdiction in all matters of law relating to all the executive departments of the State.
Although the Constitution and Statutes of Georgia specify a multitude of duties which the Attorney General must perform, it may be stated generally that he acts as a lawyer for the State of Georgia. For example, he must represent the State in all cases before the Supreme Court of the United States, capital felony cases in the Supreme Court of Georgia, and trials beyond the limits of this State, and in any civil or criminal case when so required by the Governor.
Within recent years the volume of court cases in which the Attorney General is responsible has increased tremendously. All of these cases are extremely important. Some involve millions of dollars; others involve constitutional principles affecting every person in the State. As the revenue of the State increases, the enlargement of the functions and services of the various agencies of government is reflected in a sharply increased volume of litigation.
The Attorney General represents various State agencies and officials in litigation arising from the discharge of official duties. He also serves on a large number of Boards, Commissions, Bureaus and other similar agencies.

A major function of the Law Department is to advise the Governor and the various department heads of State Government on the various legal problems which surround the operation of their departments. Conferences are held and oral advice rendered, and in many instances formal written official opinions are given to the Governor or the department head. Unofficial opinions are rendered as time and official duties permit.

The Department of Law also renders assistance to members of the General Assembly by advising and assisting individual members of committees, as well as the drafting of legislation.

The recommended appropriation for the Department of Law provides additional funds for 5 new positions in the first year of the biennium and for 2 additional positions in the second year to handle anticipated increase in caseload. An increase of $44,000 in travel funds is recommended primarily to finance travel expense of Assistant Attorneys General as signed to State agencies. Their travel is now financed by the benefiting agencies. Other increases are recommended for equipment, communications, within-grade salary increases, and employer cost of retirement and health insurance benefits.

The Department of Law is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

The State Merit System of Personnel Administration was created by an Act of the General Assembly in 1943 as amended (Section 40-2201 of the Code of Georgia Annotated), and Article XIV of the State Constitution of 1945.
The System operates under the rules and regulations of the State Personnel Board.
The State Merit System was created for the purpose of establishing a modern program of personnel administration within the State government through effective recruitment and examination procedures, a sound position classification and pay plan, and other phases of personnel administration.
The efficient and effective administration of the many varied and complex functions of the State government requires that the State secure the best employees possible. The appeal of State employment depends upon the stability of employment, an adequate salary, competitive fringe benefits, and other features which make for an attractive work environment.

The State Merit System program seeks to develop such an environment through a career service.
The amount of income from assessments has been increased for the biennium to provide funds for the addition of four Personnel Technicians, two clerks and one Training Officer, and to allow the System to automate their operations. Emphasis during the biennium on implementing the in- service training of employees, conducting personne1 research, expanding the classification service and recruiting qualified personnel require these increases.
No funds by direct appropriation are required to administer the Merit System. Administrative expenses of the Agency are financed through assessments to the State agencies served by the System.

The State Employees' Health Insurance Service was established by the State Personnel Board to administer the State Employees' Health Insurance Plan authorized by Act 154 of the 1961 General Assembly, as amended.
This Service administers the plan for over 22, 000 State Employees and their eligible dependents. The effective administration of the plan requires that the Employees' Health Insurance Service ( 1} determine the eligibility of employees and their dependents for benefits under the program; (2} certify to hospitals that the employees and their dependents are covered by the plan; {3} account for all monies, both employer and employee contributions to the employees' health insurance fund; and (4} negotiate with the insurance carrier as to contract interpretations.
Through statistical analyses by the use of data processing equipment it is determined from claims the actual effectiveness of the health insurance plan, and any abuses are isolated and identified.

Since the law creating the plan requires that all new State employees shall, as a condition of their employment, become members of this health insurance program, it is anticipated that the program will grow extensively during the next biennium.
In order that the insurance program remain on a sound financial basis, it is necessary to finance an actuarial study of the program each year.
No funds by direct appropriation are required to administer this program. Administrative expenses are financed through contributions from the various State Agencies of two per cent of the total payments for personal services.

This system of making purchases for the State is designed to obtain the best products at the most economical price, and to eliminate waste and duplication in purchases.
This department has responsibility for supervising the negotiation of all public works contracts exceeding $500, as well as documentation of insurance premium payments and coverage of state properties.

The Supervisor of Purchases is appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Senate, for a four-year term of office. He has authority to employ all necessary office personnel.

The Department is the tax collecting agency for the State, and among the principal taxes and licenses collected are those on sales, motor fuel and kerosene, income, alcoholic beverages, cigars and cigarettes, property, motor vehicle licenses, motor vehicle registrations, and estates. It is the Commissioner's duty to administer all tax laws, and he is empowered to make all rules and regulations necessary to the enforcement of those laws, including inspections and investigations when he deems them to be in the best interest of the State. He has authority to employ all personnel necessary for the functioning of the Department. He also is empowered to enforce all laws and regulations pertaining to the control of liquor within the State.
In addition to other duties assigned to the Commissioner, he directs that appropriate legal action be taken to enforce the revenue laws of Georgia; requests the Attorney General to command the services of County Attorney or Solicitor General or to supply legal assistance from the Department of Law; supervises all tax administration throughout the State subject, however, to the sovereign rights of the counties to regulate their own affairs; makes thorough study of taxation in Georgia and elsewhere with a view to improvement of administration and legislation affecting the people of Georgia; makes an annual report to the Governor and a biennial report to each regular session of the General Assembly; publishes such regulations, statistics, and other reports as he may deem wise within the limitations of his appropriation; assists local tax officials in every feasible manner when so requested by such officials; and, as responsible revenue official of the State, advises the Governor of all matters relating to revenue.

The State Treasurer is a Constitutional Officer of the State who is elected by the p eo p 1 e for a term of four years. The Constitution requires that he must have been a citizen of the United States for ten years, shall have resided in Georgia for six year s , and shall be at least twenty-five years of age when elected.
It is the duty of the State Treasurer to receive and properly account for all money of the State coming into his possession. He is required to certify as to each payment made, showing by whom made, the amount, and for what account.
He must make all disbursements which are to be made only upon a warrant of the Governor, chargeable against the proper appropriation made by the General Assembly. The Treasurer is forbidden by law to pay out any money except upon appropriations d u 1 y made by the General Ass embly. The law, therefore, governs all payments made. The State T reasurer is under bond for the faithful performance of his duties.
He is Ex-Officio Bond Commissioner and as such is the custodian of all bond deposits required to be made by insurance companies, state depository banks, and others required to deposit collateral bonds. All insur-

ance companies doing business in the State are required to deposit collateral bonds for the protection of their policyholders in Georgia, the amount of the bond varying according to the class or classes of business being written.
All of the State's money is kept in state depository banks. Each bank, before r e c e i vi n g a deposit, must qualify to serve in this capacity by placing with the State Treasurer a sufficient amount of collateral bonds to fully protect his deposits so that the State can lose no money by bank failures.
The recommended appropriation will provide for continuation of the present program.
The office of State Treasurer is the Budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

The Department of Veterans Service was created by an Act of the General Assembly in 1945 (Section 78-401 of the Code of Georgia Annotated), with a seven member constitutional board. The primary function of this agency is to assist veterans, widows, and dependents in the preparation and filing of claims for all benefits authorized by local, state, and federal laws, and acquainting them with these benefits, legal rights and privileges.
By an Act of the General Assembly approved March 17, 1960, the duties and responsibilities of the Confederate Pension and Records Division were transferred to this agency on December 31' 196o, and the processing of pensions to Confederate Widows is being accomplished without any increase in funds or personnel.
The Department of Veterans Service is dedicated to the principle of assisting Georgia 1s veterans and dependents in obtaining all benefits authorized by existing laws. With the passage by Congress of the Veterans Benefits Readjustment Act of 1966, the population of eligible veterans in our State increased to 480,000. Meanwhile, the age of the

World War I, World War II, and Korean Veterans has increased causing a growth in the demand for services in such matters as cornpensation, pension, hospitalization, and insurance. To meet this demaud the Department maintains 41 division offices throughout the State.

During the calendar year 1965, Georgia Veterans and their dependents received $211 million in benefits largely through the efforts of this department.

The recommended appropriation will provide for continuation of the present programs, including the addition of 6 new personnel.

The Department of Veterans Service is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

The State Board of Workmen's Compensation as presently constituted was created by an Act of the General Assembly in 1943 (Section 54-108 of the Code of Georgia Annotated).
The Board is composed of a Chairman and two Directors appointed by the Governor with the consent and approval of the Senate for terms of four years.
The Board determines policy and is charged with the administration of all facets of the Workmen's Compensation Act. The Act and the Rules of the Board require from employers and insurers, treating physicians, and others, numerous and various reports on industrial accidents. Although a great majority of claims for compensation and medical benefits are paid without dispute, these claims are supervised administratively by the Board and its personnel.
The Board, through its Deputy Directors, hears and adjudicates all disputed claims. Hearings are conducted under the rules of evidence that pertain to trials in the superior courts of the State.
The Chairman and two Directors of the Board sit as a review body on appeals from the awards of the Deputy Directors. They also super-

vise and are the regulatory body of agreements, attorneys fees, and medical fees. Insurance companies writing workmen's compensation coverage and employers acting as self-insurers must be approved by the Board.

The Board collects assessments in an amount equal to its approved annual budget from insurance companies and self-insurers electing to come under the provisions of the Workmen's Compensation Act. These funds are deposited with the State Treasurer.

The recommended appropriation provides for continuation of the present program. Funds are recommended for two additional clerical positions and related operating expenses to meet increasing workload at the administrative level.

The Board of Workmen's Compensation is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

The Entomology program protects the agricultural andhorticultural interests of the State from injurious insects, plant diseases and related organisms. The primary goals are to eradicate and control agricultural pests, protect homeowners and farmers in purchasing plants, control the spread of certain infectious bee diseases to protect beekeepers in the moving and selling of their bees, and enforce the Georgia Structural Pest Control Act to protect property owners
from substandard and illegal pest control operations. Recently a major emphasis has been placed on the eradication of the imported fire ant. With the exception of emergency outbreaks and plant disease native to Georgia, the readication and control programs are a cooperative effort with the U. S. Department of Agriculture.
The Georgia Milk Commission is charged with the responsibility of determining the price of milk at the producer level and at the consumer level. It has general powers to supervise and regulate the production, transportation, manufacture, storage, distribution, delivery or sale of milk, and may make and enforce its own regulations.

FORESTRY COMMISSION

The Forestry Commission was created by an Act of the General Assembly on February 25, 1949, as amended by Act No. 143, and approved March 3, 1955 (Chapter 43-2 of the Code of Georgia Annotated). The Commission is composed of five non-salaried members, three being owners of forest land and two being connected with the lumber industry, all appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Senate.
The primary goals of this Commission are to promote and aid forest farming and nursery work, planting, management and protection of forests, and marketing of farm products.
The powers and duties of the Commission and its Director are as follows: to take all action appropriate to foster, improve and encourage reforestation; to engage in research and other projects for the ascertainment and promulgation of better forestry practices; to offer aid, assistance and technical advice to land owners relative to the preservation and culture of forests; to receive gifts or donations made to it and to extend the same under the terms of such gifts or donations; to conduct and direct fire prevention work and maintain equipment, personnel, and installations for the protection, prevention and combating thereof; and to cooperate and contract with other agencies and instrumentalities of government, both county and city, state and national, private persons or concerns for the advancement of the forests of the State.
The following activities have been established to carry out the functions of the Commission: Ad!ninistration, State Forest, Management, and Forest Protection.
The Administration activity is composed of the Administrative unit and the Information and Education Unit.
The State Forest Activity is a self-supporting unit reqmnng no State funds. The State forest area in Ware and Brantley Counties is composed of 35,879 acres and serves as a public demonstration area for the prac-

tical application of all types of good forestry practices in the coastal areas. It is also extensively used by the Commission as an in-service training area for personnel in forest management, utilization and fire control. Income in excess of expenditures is applied to the operation of the Nursery unit, since these are the two work units that produce products for sale.
The Forest Management activity provides technical assistance to landowners and develops the landowner's forest resources so that they will realize the greatest financial returns possible through good forestry practices; provides services so as to develop the forest resources on the small water sheds in the State in order to realize the greatest benefits from soil and water conservation; and provides technical assistance in preventing and controlling outbreaks of insects and disease.
The Reforestation activity is engaged in the Commission1s reforestation program of establishing tree crops on land which is in need of reforesting. Georgia has between seven and nine million acres of land that are denuded or occupied by undesirable or culled trees.
The Forest Protection program is designed and operated to provide for the prevention of forest fires through public awareness, and to hold forest fire damage at the lowest level possible.

The recommended appropriation will provide for a continuation of present programs with the addition of 2 7 positions in the first year at a cost of $118,000 and an additional 39 positions in the second year at a cost of $145,000. Most of the new positions will be in the Forest Protection Division. Also provided for are increases in the level of equipment purchases of $350,000 and in the level of supplies and materials purchases of $100, 000.

The Forestry Commission is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

The Game and Fish Commission was reorganized in 1965 in accordance with recommendations of the Governor's Commission for Efficiency and Improvement in Government. The principal features of the reorganizational plan are ( l) coordination of all activities within the Department and (2) decentralization of programs and activities within four geographic regions of the State.
The Commission is vested with the control, management, restoration, conservation and regulation of the birds, game, wildlife, fur- bearing animals, fresh and salt-water fish, shellfish, and crustaceans. It also

has responsibility for the acquisition, establishment, control and management of hatcheries, sanctuaries, refuges, reservations and all other property used for such purposes by the State.
The principal working units under the new organization include an Administrative Services Division, a Program Planning and Evaluation Division, and a Field Operations Division which provides regional offices for law enforcement and game and fish management.

60

GAME AND FISH COMMISSION

The activities of the Game and Fish Commission are as follows:
a. Administrative Services. This program includes the functions of personnel administration, budget and fiscal services, the registration of motorboats, the issuance of hunting and fishing licenses, and the receipt and accountability for all monies collected from the sale of licenses. The increased public participation in hunting, fishing, and boating activities generates demand for issuance of new licenses.
b. Program Planning and Evaluation. This program, under supervision of an Assistant Director, is responsible for conservation planning and organization of long-range and short-range programs, with immediate objectives, the formulation of policy and evaluation of existing programs. The Assistant Director is assisted by five staff assistants as follows: Coordinator of Fisheries, Coordinator of Game Management, Coordinator of Information and Education, Coordinator of Marine Fisheries, and Coordinator of Special Services. The Federal aid programs (Pittman-Robertson, Dingell-Johnson, Marine Fisheries, Anadromous Fish and Land and Water Conservation) which are described separately in the budget report are principally planned and effected according to Federal requirements under supervision of the Assistant Director for Program Planning and Evaluation. Programs are coordinated with publicity media and information - education publications to provide the groundwork for effective operation of all programs. Plans provide for publication of a monthly newsletter and a quarterly magazine.
Inspections are made with field personnel in all areas of departmental activity to organize and develop sound conservation programs. Programs, when developed and approved by the Director and the Commission, are assigned to the Field Operations Division for implementation.
c. Field Operations. This program, under superv1s1on of an Assistant Director, is responsible for all phases of wildlife and fisheries operation and implements programs organized under Program Planning. Field operations are accomplished through four decentralized regional offices under the supervision of Regional Managers. Supervisory positions within a regional office include Supervisor of Fisheries, Supervisor of Game Management, and two District Chiefs of Enforcement. The Regional Manager is responsible for the daily activities, records, and operations of all personnel for an expanded extension service in game, fish, and enforcement activities within the region.
The law enforcement function of Field operations enforces State laws, rules and regulations relating to the Commission. Through effective law enforcement, this program.(l)protects not only the game we now have, but increases the number; (2) affords better and more controlled hunting and fishing; and (3) provides safe and pleasurable boating. It is the objective of the Commission to eventually provide a qualified ranger in each of Georgia's 159 counties.

The Fish Management function of Field operations serves the citizens and tourists of Georgia by producing adequate quantities of fish and providing better management for private ponds, reservoirs, and streams, and by establishing artificial fishing and oyster reefs along the Georgia coastal waters. Accomplishments during the past year included (l) propagation and distribution of approximately 400,000 catfish, 6, 000, 000 bream, 600,000 bass and 10, 000 striped bass to Georgia pond owners and streams; (2) raising and stocking about 350,000 trout in 167 streams; and (3) hatching and stocking 20 million walleye pike into several of Georgia1s reservoirs.

The Game Management function of Field operations maintains and operates the game bird hatchery at Fitzgerald; provides technical assistance to landowners on wildlife problems; and administers the commercial and private shooting preserve program.

d. Federal Aid to Fishery Management and Development (Dingell-Johnson Project). This Federal-State cooperative program supplies technical direction and operation of fishery management research and development, coastal fisheries surveys, and recreational surveys. It is closely coordinated with the fish management program.

e. Federal Aid and Wildlife (Pittman-Robertson Project). This project conducts wildlife research; carries out adequate and appropriate development and maintenance necessary to provide public hunting; conducts a game restoration program; and provides technical information necessary for the Commission to administer the game management program. An expanded program is planned for the development and management of small game species on public hunting areas, as well as an accelerated program with private land-owners whereby the Commission will provide technical assistance in wildlife propagation. During the past year the Commission has added approximately 58,000 acres of land for public hunting for a total of about 583,000 acres. The project is accomplished with financial participation through the PittmanRobertson Federal Aid Act on a 75o/o Federal and 25o/o State participation.

f.

Federal Aid to Marine Fisheries. This is a new program brought on

by legislation by the 88th Congress as Public Law 88-309, the Com-

mercial Fisheries Research and Development Act. The act generally

provides funds for research and development of commercial marine

fisheries on a 75o/o Federal, 25o/o State matching fund basis. Principal

expenditures are directed toward research through contract agreement

with the University of Georgia Marine Institute. A trained staff of re-

search scientists are available for the necessary technical studies.

The Commission's staff of biologists will be utilized for offshore ex-

ploratory fishing and liaison activities with commercial fishermen and

industrial interests in an attempt to revitalize the oyster industry in

Georgia by establishing several oyster reefs for lease and use by com-

mercial oyster fishermen.

GAME AND FISH COMMISSION

g. Anadromous Fish Project. This Federal Act Public Law 88-304, was passed in 1965 and initial funding for the State of Georgia was provided for fiscal year 1967. The provisions of this legislation provide for a 50o/o Federal - 50o/o State matching basis to be utilized in the research and development of Anadromous fishes. Anadromous fishes are those species that live and develop in salt water but move into fresh water streams to spawn, such as the striped bass and American Shad found in Georgia. It is the intent of the Commission to initiate a research project in the coastal area of Georgia to determine present conditions of the striped bass fishery, its limiting factors, such as pollution, and the potential of this species for development in the sport fishery.

h. Land and Water Conservation. This Federal Act, passed in 1965 provides a Federal Grant-in-Aid Program for the development of outdoor recreation. Through the provisions of the Act, the individual States receive annual apportionment for Grants-in-Aid matching funds. The Act provides for a participation ratio of 50o/o Federal 50o/o State funds. Georgia's apportionment for fiscal 1967 provides for $100,000 in Federal funds to be matched by $100, 000 in State funds. These funds will provide for the construction of one public fishing lake and 50 public boat launching ramps. The recommended appropriation for 1968 and 1969 will provide for the continuation of this program at the current level.

The recommended appropriation will provide for a continuation of all programs at the current level with provision made for within-grade salary increases for all merit employees.

The Game and Fish Commission is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

The Department of Mines, Mining, and Geology was established by an Act of the General Assembly, approved March 5, 1937, as amended by the Act of February 19, 1943 (Chapter 43-3 of the Code of Georgia Annotated).
The Department of Mines, Mining, and Geology has the duty of studying, analyzing, and reporting on the geological, mineral, and water resources of the State. The activities, along with a brief description of duties and responsibilities are as follows:
a. Oil and Gas Conservation. The State Oil and Gas Commission was abolished by Act No. 52 of the General Assembly, dated February 18, 1959, and its functions were transferred to the Department of Mines, Mining, and Geology. The Director of the Department presently enforces the provisions of the Oil and Gas Act and the Rules and Regulations pertaining to issuing drilling permits, collection of fees, and filing of a performance bond guaranteeing compliance with the rules and regulations.
1/ Includes proposed supplemental appropriation of $94,700.
65

b. Water Resources Investigation. A continuing cooperative investigation of water resources in the State by this department
and the U. s. Geological Survey develops and publishes much
valuable geologic and hydrologic information on the sources, quantity and quality of Georgia's water resources and on the present and future utilization of these waters.
c. ToEograEhic MaEEing. The primary goal of the topographic mapping program is to complete the mapping of the State so that the maps may be used for essential planning and development activities.
d. South Georgia Mineral ProsEecting Pros_ ram. This program was initiated on July l, 1965 as a preliminary minerals reconnaissance program. The area of South Georgia is approximately 20, 000 to 25,000 square miles. Emphasis to date has been on phosphates; to determine location, quantity, quality, and ability to be beneficiated by customary procedures of deposits having economic values attractive to industry. In view of

DEPARTMENT OF MINES, MINING AND GEOLOGY

the extreme importance to the economy of Georgia, it is desired to carry on this program to more clearly define areas within the very broad coverage necessitated in the early stages of the program, and to enhance the investigations directed toward heavy minerals, sand, clays, and other minerals.

The recommended appropriation will provide one additional Associate Geologist in Regular Operations as well as increased field support for geologists in the field. In addition to this, funds are recommended for a crew to operate a second, smaller drilling rig in the South Georgia Minerals Prospecting Program as well as additional funds for the printing of reports of the findings in this operation.

The Department of Parks was authorized by an Act of the General Assembly approved March 5, 1937, as amended (Section 43-124 and 43-132 of the Code of Georgia Annotated). It is responsible for operating and maintaining 44 State parks consisting of 38,500 acres and six museums of historic, scenic, and recreational interest. These parks are operated for the purpose of furnishing recreational areas for the general public and accommodations include swimming, boating, fishing, horseback riding, vacation cabins, overnight facilities, nature trails, historical museums, tent camping and trailer camping. Each park has been developed to provide basic sanitary, water, and lighting facilities, roads, trails, and structures for public convenience and use.

In order to operate and maintain these parks, hold down vandalism and maintain order, a superintendent with appropriate help is maintained on a year-round basis at each park, with the exception of two small areas where a full-time superintendent cannot be justified.
There are six museums, all of historical nature, completed or nearing completion, covering the periods from pre-historical or pre-Columbian days as exemplified by Kolomoki Mounds; the Revolutionary War days as reflected by the museum of Elijah Clark; the period of the removal of Indians from this section of the country, as illustrated in the museum at Indian Springs; the period of the War between the States

DEPARTMENT OF PARKS

and shortly thereafter, as exemplified by the museums of the Jefferson Davis Park and the Alexander H. Stephens Park; and the museum of Georgia Veterans Memorial covering World Wars I and II, and the Korean conflict.
Attendance at State parks has increased from l, 750,000 in fiscal year 1951 to over 6, 000,000 in fiscal year 1966. All parks are exceedingly crowded in the summer months, particularly on holidays and weekends. Tent camping in Georgia has increased 274o/o since 1963. The Department is meeting this demand by increasing its l, BOO modern tent camping sites to l, 925 and building 5 new comfort stations with hot and cold showers and laundry equipment to serve this steady increase. The park system contains nine group camps which are fully utilized throughout the summer season by boy scouts, church groups, and other organizations.
The recommended appropriation for the Department of Parks will provide for continued and improved operation of existing parks; for 45 new positions including the administration of the Federal Land Water Conservation

Fund Act ($145, 000); for an increase in temporary and summer help ($50, 000); for capital improvements at all parks ($500, 000); and for increased lease rentals to provide for a $7,000, 000 capital improvement program throughout the park system ($500, 000).

Also included in the recommended appropriation is $1,000,000 for transfer to the Lake Lanier Island Development Committee, $900, 000 to be transferred in the first year and $100,000 in the second. This expenditure by the Committee is expected to be matched to the extent of $825,000 by the Federal Government. The Committee also expects to secure a loan of $2, 100, 000 from the Economic Development Administration. The total fund availability of $3,750,000 will provide for the construction of a causeway and a principal road system.

The Department of Parks is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

The Soil and Water Conservation Districts Law was passed by the Georgia General Assembly on March 26, 1937 and was amended at subsequent sessions of the General Assembly. Under this law and its amendments the State Soil and Conservation Committee and Georgia's twentyseven Soil and Water Conservation Districts have been established as an agency of the State of Georgia.
The primary goal of the State Soil and Water Conservation Committee and Soil and Water Conservation Districts is to plan, promote and direct a program for the conservation and wise use of soil, water, forest and wildlife on the farms of Georgia.
This program is accomplished by: ( 1) an agreement, by each district,
with the Soil Conservation Service of the U. s. Department of Agricul-
ture to furnish technicians in every county to assist the farmers and landowners in developing a conservation plan on the farms of our State; (2) planning for the cooperation and coordination of all other agencies, local, Federal and State in promoting and assisting with the conservation of soil, water, forest and wildlife; (3) providing educational materials and equipment that will inform the people of Georgia regarding their obligation to protect and conserve soil, water, forest and wildlife; (4) co-
operating with the Soil Conservation Service of the U. s. Department of
Agriculture in carrying out the provisions of the "Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act" (Public Laws 566); and (5) encouraging research in soil, water, forest and wildlife conservation.
There is a great need in Georgia today for the conservation of its natural resources, especially soil, water, forest and wildlife. Almost half of the farms have not had a conservation plan developed. Since 1954 the State Soil and Water Conservation Committee has received 153

watershed applications. Of these, 79 have been selected by the State Committee for planning, and 52 of the 79 have been designated by the Administrator of the Soil Conservation Service for Planning. Fortyone watersheds have already been approved for Federal Assistance and nine watersheds have been completed.

The State Committee has on file 74 watershed applications awaiting designation for planning assistance, and there is a potential of at least 150 more applications which the State Committee will receive as funds are available for the planning and development of additional watersheds.
One planning party, provided by the u. s. Soil Conservation Service
under provisions of P. L. 566, was able to plan only three or four watersheds each year. Two additional planning parties financed by the State Committee were added in 1963 and an additional party was added in 1966. Based of the 16 projects authorized for Federal assistance since 1962, the ratio of Federal funds to State funds is 20 to l.

The recommended appropriation will provide for (1) operation of the 27
Soil and Water Conservation Districts and the Soil and Water Conser-
vation Committee, and (2) reimbursement to the Soil Conservation Ser-
vice of the U. s. Department of Agriculture for the service of three
watershed planning parties to develop the flood prevention and conser-
vation plan for the small watershed program in Georgia.

The Soil and Water Conservation Committee is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

The Stone Mountain Memorial Committee was created on March 17, 1958 by Executive Order issued under authority of Section 40-305 of the Code of Georgia Annotated. The Stone Mountain Memorial Committee contracts to pay the Stone Mountain Memorial Association for services rendered in an amount equal to the monies expended in carrying out the intent of the Legislature that authorized the Governor to acquire Stone Mountain and any other property adjacent thereto, and to construct, reconstruct, 1 ay out, repair, develop, improve, maintain, manage and operate Stone Mountain and property adjacent thereto as a Confederate Memorial, which services are to be performed by the Stone Mountain Memorial Association.

A portion of the funds presently appropriated and transferred to the Association is used to maintain a prison camp for the purpose of developing the Stone Mountain Memorial Park.
The Stone Mountain Memorial Committee is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

BOARD OF CORRECTIONS

The Constitution of 1945 established the Board of Corrections as a constitutional body (Article V, Section 5), and the enabling Act was passed on February 23, 1956 (Section 77-302 of the Code of Georgia Annotated). The primary duty of the Board, in its transaction of the business of the penal system, is to maintain a program of wise, humane and intelligent prison achninistration which has for its underlying purposes the rehabilitation and reclamation of the prison imnates, and the operation of selfsupporting correctional institutions. It promulgates rules and regulations governing the assignment, housing and feeding, treatment, hospitalization, discipline, training and rehabilitation of all prisoners under its custody.
The Board of Corrections consists of five non-salaried members appointed by the Governor with the consent of the Senate, for five-year terms. The Board appoints a Director of Corrections, who is its administrative and executive officer. It is the duty of the Director to administer and enforce the Board's regulations. The Director appoints all personnel necessary for the operation of the correctional institutions, including assistants, technical experts, wardens and clerical workers. The Prison System consists of the Atlanta office, the main institut1on at Reidsville, the Industrial Institute at Alto, the Classification and Diagnostic Center in Butts County, the Training and Development Center at Buford, and 14 prison branches. The average daily inmate count at these institutions for 1965-66 was 4, 800 at a cost per inmate day of $2. 03.
The Prison System operates 12 road maintenance branches, with an average daily inmate count of 863.. These inmates are given work by the State Highway Department in maintaining roads, for which the Highway Department pays the Board of Corrections $3. 50 a day per man.

A Prison Industries System has been established and has assumed the manufacturing, printing and canning operations formerly carried out by the State Prison. An initial appropriation of $500,000 established arevolving fund from which this system must become self supporting.

Total collections of $1,042,820 were received in 1965-66. Included in this amount is $107,800 received from the Industries for supplies and materials on hand at the time that they began operations. Included, also, is $864, 628 received from the State Highway Department for road maintenance work.

The recommended appropriation will provide for a continuation of present programs, with additional funds provided for the following: ( l) The reduction of hours at all institutions from a 60 hour work week to a 48 hour work week; (2) Additional equipment, supplies, and materials for all institutions to help upgrade the present conditions; (3) The operation of the new Classification and Diagnostic Center in Butts County; (4) An academic teacher supplement for the teachers at Alto; (5) New construction and remodeling at Alto, Reidsville, and the prison branches; and (6) Construction of a new reformatory.

The following appropriations are recommended for all budget units of the State Board of Corrections:

The Board of Pardons and Paroles was made a constitutional body by the 1945 Constitution (Art. V,. Sec. l, Par. ll) after it had previously been created by the Act of February 5, 1943 (Section 77-50 of the Code of Georgia Annotated).
The Board has exclusive power to grant reprieves, pardons and paroles, to commute penalties, to remove disabilities imposed by law, and to remit any part of a sentence after conviction, except in those cases in which the Governor has refused to suspend a death sentence. In all cases of pardon, parole or clemency a majority vote is controlling, but if capital punishment is in any way involved, a unanimous vote is compulsory. The Board retains control and supervision over all parolees until the expiration of the maximum sentence originally imposed, or until discharged by the Board.
The Board of Pardons and Paroles consists of three members, all of whom including the Chairman, are appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Senate for seven-year terms. The Board appoints its secretary and has authority to employ all necessary personnel.
Georgia, in the past, has followed an ultra-conservative policy in the release of inmates on parole. Only one out of four persons convicted of a felony could expect to gain parole during the course of his confinement. With the steady improvement of the Board's supervision system, the Board is steadily increasing the percentage of felony paroles granted to felony cases considered. Under the new laws enacted by the 1964 General Assembly, the number of misdemeanor cases considered, as well as the misdemeanor population in the State correctional system, is steadily lessening in number.

An average of l,ll3persons have been paroled each year for the past three years, and an average of 927 persons have been conditionally released on expiration of their minimum sentences over the same three year period. Persons released on parole are under supervisian of Parole Officers, but those released on conditional release are not under supervision even though they are still on the service of their maximum sentences.

As a part of the prison reform program, the General Assembly enacted legislation abolishing the indeterminate sentence law and substituting in its stead a determinate sentence law. With this law, there will be no unsupervised conditional release. While Georgia paroles only 28.9 per cent of its inmates considered and places them under supervision, other states parole 50 to 90 percent successfully.

With the repeal of the indeterminate sentence law, it is clearly evident that Georgia is going to have to parole a higher percentage of felony inmates and to keep them under supervision for a reasonable period.

The following table shows comparative data as to inmate population and parolee statistics for the years 1962-66:

The State Board of Probation was created by an Act of February 8, 1956 (Georgia Laws 1956, Page 27). This Act also created a statewid.. probation system to be administered by the Board which is composed by the members of the State Board of Pardons and Paroles ex-officio. The Board appoints a Director of Probation who is in charge of the Probation System.
The duties of the Director of Probation are to supervise and direct the work of the Circuit Probation Officers; keep accurate files and records on all probation cases and persons on probation; serve as Deputy Cornpact Administrator establishing procedures to insure the System1s compliance with the Interstate Compact for the Supervision of Parolees and Probationers; establish and direct In-Service Training Programs for officers and secretaries; and to promulgate rules and regulations necessary to effectuate the purposes of the Act.
Additionally, the State Board of Probation employs circuit probation officers and assigns, after consultation with the Director of Probation, one or more officers to each of the 40 judicial circuits in the State. At present there are 73 circuit probation officers who investigate all cases referred to them by the Courts, and make their findings and reports in writing to the Courts with their recommendations. They also supervise and keep records on the probationers in their judicial circuits and make certain of compliance with the sentences imposed upon the probationers.

The Board also employs three field supervisors, one examiner, one state-at-large officer, and 45 field secretaries in 48 offices.
The total caseload of probationers has increased from approximately 1, 200 in 1956 to over 10,000 offenders in 1966. Since 1956 more than 61,200 persons have served or are serving some type of probated sentence under the jurisdiction of the Board. The revocation rate for probation violations has averaged less than 8o/o over the past ten years.
The recommended appropriation will provide for a continuation of the Board's current activities, ihe implementation of a salary schedule for probation officers and other non-merit personnel and for appointrnent of 15 additional probation officers and 7 field secretaries in the first year to aid in supervising the greatly increased caseload.
The State Board of Probation is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

- - - CURRENT EXPENDITURE -IN GEORGIA PUBLIC SCHOOLS
All Schools 1965-66

Presented herewith are the local expenditures for the schools operated by the various school systems. We have indicated the total reported per pupil costs attributable to seven expenditure accounts, e.g., Administration, Instruction (Reg. Prog.), Attendance Services, Pupil Transportation, Operation of Plant, Maintenance of Plant and Fixed Charges.
Educational expenditure data may vary among school districts for a number of reasons. Comparisons should be made only after careful investigation. Excluded from this data are expenditures for Capital Outlay, Debt Service and Outgoing Transfer accounts. Expenditure figures are important in terms of the education of children and should be so judged. Below are some reasons for variation of expenditure data among school systems:
1. Class size. Large classes cost less per pupil than do smaller classes.
2. Salaries paid. High salaries increase per pupil costs; lower salaries decrease them.
3. Employment policy. Inexperienced personnel and personnel with little experience cost less than more experienced personnel.
4. Age of buildings. Older buildings usually involve greater maintenance costs than newer buildings.
5. Services and programs. Assistant superintendents, principals, assistant principals, clerical services, guidance services, instructional supplies and materials, music, industrial arts, a variety of courses, advanced courses all tend to increase costs.
6. Accuracy of data reported by the System for Expenditure accounts.

-PLE-AS-E -NO-TE--
The expenditures for 1965-66 shown in this booklet are those which were Actually Expended and Reported y Local School Systems.

The Georgia Higher Education Assistance Committee was created on May 24, 1965 by Executive Order. This committee contracts with the Georgia Higher Education Assistance Corporation to conduct the guaranteed loan program.
Available statistics show that many Georgia students of ability and with a desire for higher education are precluded from further study beyond high school because of inadequate financial means. The loan program provided for in the enabling act permits a student to obtain funds in adclition to scholarship funds, if needed, and provides assistance for students of less outstanding scholastic ability who do not qualify for scholarship funds.
From its inception on July 1, 196 5 to October 15, 1966, this program has guaranteed a total of 4, 354 loans with an average dollar amount of $836 or a total of $3,640,000 in loans.
A reserve for loans amounting to lOo/o of the outstanding loans is required under Federal regulations. The Reserve for Loans which is cumulative is detailed as follows by year of appropriation and level of supportable loans:

Fiscal Year 1965-66 1966-67 1967-68 Proposed 1968-69 Proposed

Increment $150,000
100,000 150,000 250,000

Total Funds $150,000 250,000 400,000 650,000

Loans Supportable At lOo/o Level $1,500,000 2,500,000 4, 000, 000 6,500,000

The recommended appropriation will provide l 4/5 new positions each year of the Biennium and associated operating expenses to meet the needs of this rapidly growing program. It also will provide interest payments of 6o/o on the amount of outstanding loans each year. It now is anticipated that the Federal government under the Higher Education Act of 1965 will pay part of this interest instead of the State, but no historical data is available on the degree of Federal participation that can be expected.

The Georgia Higher Education Assistance Committee is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

The State Medical Education Board was established in 1953 for the purpose of granting scholarships to medical students. These scholarships are granted by the Board on the basis of need to those students who agree, upon completion of their medical education, to practice their profession in a rural community of a population of 5, 000 or less according to the 1950 census.
The State Medical Education Board was created by an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Georgia. The 1951 General Assembly enacted a law providing for the amendment to the Constitution which was ratified by the people of the State of Georgia in November 1952. Under this amendment the Board is charged with the responsibility of receiving and acting upon all applications for loans or scholarships made by students who are bona fide citizens and residents of Georgia, who desire to become doctors of medicine, and who have been accepted for enrollment in accredited medical colleges within the United States.
The loans or scholarships do not exceed $5,000 to any one person and are paid in annual installments not exceeding $1,500 per annum. The loans or scholarships may be repaid as follows:
a. The full amount of the loan may be repaid to the State of Georgia in cash in full with 4 per cent interest.
b. The student may repay the loan in services by practicing his profession at some place within the State of Georgia to be approved by the State Medical Education Board. One-fifth of the loan shall be credited to the student for each year of practicing his profession in the designated community. After the fifth full year of practice the student shall be relieved from further obligations under his contract.

As a result of the medical scholarship program, sixty-two doctors are presently practicing in rural areas in repayment of their loan. An additional fifty-one doctors have already repaid their loans by practicing in rural areas. In addition to practicing physicians, there are 130 scholarship recipients who are now in medical school; forty-seven have graduated, completed internships, and are now serving residencies; thirty-five have graduated, completed internships, and are now completing compulsory military service; twenty- seven have graduated and are completing their internships; and eighty-six have elected to repay their scholarships in cash (among which are thirty-six who withdrew from medical college). It is estimated that the Medical Scholarship Program will continue to provide from fifteen to twenty physicians annually for rural areas.

This program awarded 132 scholarships in 1966-67. The recommended appropriation will permit the number of scholarships to be increased to 166 in each year of the Biennium.

The Medical Education Board is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

The 1964 General Assembly enacted a law providing for an amendment to the Constitution of Georgia to authorize the General Assembly to provide for the creation of a State Scholarship Commis sian. The amendment was ratified by the voters in the 1964 general election. The commission is empowered to inaugurate and conduct a program for the granting of scholarships to students desiring to study in the paramedical fields, and other educational and professional fields.
The State Scholarship Commission is composed of eleven members, one from each Congressional District and one from the State at large, who are appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Senate. The Commission is charged with the responsibility of receiving and acting upon all applications for loans or scholarships made by students who are bona fide citizens and residents of Georgia, who desire to study in one of the professional or educational fields specified, and who have been accepted for enrollment at accredited institutions within the United States that offer such programs of study.
The great shortage of dentists, nurses, social workers, pharmacists, and personnel in the paramedical fields (Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Medical Technology, Hospital Administration, Dietetics, Medical Records Librarians, X-Ray Technologists) that exist in Georgia, particularly in the less densely populated areas, has presented an acute problem in this state which has been most difficult to solve.
It is the purpose of the State Scholarship Commission through scholarships to deserving and financially needy students to provide an adequate supply of trained personnel in the professional fields in the more sparsely populated areas of the State or where the need for such personnel is shown.

Under the program of the State Scholarship Commission the scholarship recipient repays his scholarship in services by practicing his profession in an area or site of employment approved by the Cornmis sian. If the recipient elects not to practice in an approved area or site, he will repay the scholarship at 6o/o interest. The scholarship recipient must enter into a contract with the State of Georgia and agree to terms and conditions under which the scholarship or loan is granted by the Commission.

Shown below is a schedule of the number of scholarships by field of study for the current year and each year of the biennium. These figures represent an accumulated total of scholar ships by year rather than the number of new scholarships granted each year.

The Teachers Retirement System of Georgia was established by an Act of the General Assembly dated July 1, 1943 and began operating on January 1, 1945. The system is supported by the joint contributions of the members and their employers. The member contribution is 6o/o and the employer contribution is 8. 5o/o. All teachers employed by an agency of and within the State of Georgia are eligible for membership in the system.
The Teachers Retirement System of Georgia has a Board of Trustees consisting of seven members, three of which are elected by the memhers of the Teachers Retirement System, three ex-officio, and the seventh member is elected as a Financial Advisor by the other six memhers. The law requires the Board to employ an Actuary to see that the system is properly financed in accordance with the provisions of the retirement law.
It is the duty of the Board of Trustees to establish policies and procedures for the office staff to carry out in keeping with the provisions of the retirement law. It is the duty of the office staff to see that all members who are in active service make contributions on their total salary to the retirement office on a monthly basis and that an annuity

account is maintained for each member and credited with interest at the end of each fiscal period. The employer contribution is recorded in a pension accumulation fund along with income from investments.

It is the responsibility of the Board of Trustees and the staff of the retirernent system to provide the necessary records for each member; to invest all as sets in keeping with the provisions of the Act; and to provide the necessary funds to pay the benefits of the members when they
retire.

The recommended increase in appropriation is to provide for State matching funds for teachers retirement based on salary data furnished by the State Board of Education and the State Board of Regents, and will provide for continuation only of existing levels of benefits.

The Teachers Retirement System is the budget unit for which the following appropriations are recommended:

DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY AND CHILDREN SERVICES
STATE OPERATIONS, BENEFITS AND GRANTS TO COUNTIES FOR ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICES

The Department of Public Welfare was created by an Act of the General Assembly on February 26, 1937 as amended by the Act of March 18, 1943 and subsequent Acts (Titles 99, 74, and 86 of the Code of Georgia Annotated). The name of this department was changed to Department of Family and Children Services by Act No. 161 of the 1963 General Assembly.

The Department receives, administers, and disburses funds for old-age assistance, aid to the blind, aid to dependent children, and aid to the totally and permanently disabled. Its activities consist of Administrative Operations of the State Department, Benefits, and Grants to Counties for Administration and Services. All welfare programs of the Department are administered through the county departments.

The Department's activities are carried out through programs as follows:

a. Grants for Assistance. Through a cooperative Federal -State County grants for assistance program, monthly assistance checks are sent to the aged, blind, permanently and totally disabled, and dependent children meeting eligibility requirement-s. The numbers of recipients of public welfare assistance in Georgia in June, 1966 were as follows:

Old Age Assistance Aid to the Blind Aid to Dependent Children Aid to the Permanently and
Totally Disabled

92,966 3, 186
84, 180 27,944

b. Medical Care Vendor Payment Program. This program presently provides, when needed, the following services: 1) essential hospital services and necessary medication for all recipients of the public assistance programs. 2) adequate nursing home care for blind, disabled, and old age benefit recipients.

c. Child Welfare Service. This program administers and supervises all child welfare activities including the licensing of child-caring agencies, provision of court services, protection of children for adoption and extending services of caring for homeless, dependent and neglected children. It gives leadership to the County Depart-
ments in providing services to children and furnishes a percentage
of Federal funds as participation in salary payments to the local staff and participation in payments for foster care. During the year ended June 30, 1966, child welfare services were provided for almost 25,000 children in foster homes, adoption homes, or their own homes.

d. Emergency Welfare Services. This program plans methods of action in the event of a national emergency to meet needs of people under enemy attack. It also administers the Department's program of civil defense.

e. Staff Development. This program has as its goals the education and training of State and County Departmental staff members to increase their knowledge, skills and techniques, with emphasis being placed on rehabilitation of recipients in order to move them off relief to self-reliance and independence.

Primarily, program costs for both administrative and direct benefits are paid in varying percentages from Federal-State-County funds, Federal-State funds, or State funds only. Generally, there are no lOOo/o Federal programs administered by the Department. Welfare programs paid lOOo/o from local funds and administered by the county welfare departments are not included in this budget.

The recommended appropriations provide for the continuation and improvement of present programs, as well as the inclusion of additional State funds for each major activity of this segment of the current budget of the Department of Family and Children Services. Major additional inclusions are:

a. Provision for an increase in direct money payments of about $5 per month per recipient, the first such increase since 1961.

b. Provision for increasing the maximum monthly nursing horne payment to $200 per patient in 1968, increasing to $225 in 1969, to help offset increased costs of nursing home operation arising from passage of the 1966 amendments to the Fair Labor Standards Act.

c. Provision for entrance on July l, 1967 into Title XIX of the Social Security Act, which becomes mandatory in Fiscal 1970. Entrance at this time will enable the department to qualify for such improved federal matching ratios in existing programs that more than $36 million in new medical care programs can be financed with about $1 l/2 million in State funds during this biennium. These programs include x-ray and medical laboratory services, out-patient services and physician services for all persons covered by existing public assistance programs, as well as social services for the adult program recipients.

The recommended appropriations for this department may be summarized as follows:

State Operations Benefits Grants to Counties for
Administration and Services

$ 3,064, 000 30,695,000

Fiscal 1969 $ 3,483,000

DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY AND CHILDREN SERVICES INSTITUTIONS

The Georgia Training School for Boys was created by an Act of the General Assembly in 1919 (Section 77-6 of the Code of Georgia Annotated), and the Georgia Training School for Girls was created in 1913 (Section 77-7 of the Code of Georgia Annotated). In 1963 the General Assembly passed an Act creating within the Department a Division for Children and Youth, transferring thereto all authority, duties, functions andresponsibilities respecting these facilities; the division subsequently designated these institutions to be Youth Development Centers. All authority, duties, functions and responsibilities respecting the Regional Detention Centers will also rest with the Division for Children and Youth.
The State Training Schools are expected to receive promptly, upon committal by the courts, virtually all juveniles who go astray. They are attempting to meet the demands for admissions, and expectations of society, in rehabilitating and training these juveniles to take their places in society, instead of being and becoming continuous wards of the State. The budget recommendations for the training schools provide for the necessary broadening of academic and vocational instruction and medical care programs in order that they may more effectively combat juvenile delinquency.
The Georgia Factory for the Blind was created by an Act of the General Assembly in 1937 (Section 99-8 of the Code of Georgia Annotated), but did not begin operation until 1949. The Factory furnishes those citizens of Georgia who are blind, or who have not more than ten percent vision, a means of supporting themselves. It works closely with the Vocational Rehabilitation Department and the Employment for the Blind,

the latter paying a training subsidy for a limited period after employment. It manufactures supplies extensively used by the Federal Government and the various departments of the State and its political subdivisions. Facilities are presently located at Bainbridge, Griffin and Atlanta.

The Confederate Soldiers Home is maintained for any widows of Confederate Veterans who are entitled by law to receive pensions from the State. At present there are only two widows being cared for at the home, which is located in DeKalb County. The total cost of maintaining the home during the past year was $26, 317.

The recommended appropriations will provide for continuation and improvement of the existing institutional programs. Major additional inclusions are:

a. Over $2 1/2 million in capital outlay funds, to include an additional girls training school of about 150-bed capacity, to relieve overcrowding at existing institutions.

b. Provision for a $175,000 per year program of reimbursement to county-owned detention centers.

c. Provision for employment of additional institutional security personnel and houseparents.

The recommended appropriations for this budget unit are as follows:

Psychiatric social work services provide case studies of individuals, families and communities, leading to identification of problems and formulation of plans for solution. Social workers provide individual and group counseling as needed. Individual and group psychotherapy, occupational therapy, recreational therapy, and music therapy are important adjunctives to the total treatment process.
n. Milledgeville State Hospital. This is a large neuro-psychiatric hospital constructed for and dedicated to the treatment of mentally ill citizens of Georgia. Its primary objective is to return to society all those who can satisfactorily adjust in the community and to furnish a safe, reasonably comfortable horne for those who do not satisfactorily respond to treatment. Of secondary importance is the educational development of personnel in the mental health field and the stimulation of research to contribute to the body of knowledge about mental health and mental illness.

o. Southwestern State Hospital. This facility for ambulatory patients requiring long-term care, is located at Thomasville, with a branch at Bainbridge expected to open shortly after the start of the biennium. Patients will continue to be transferred from Milledgeville State Hospital and Gracewood State School and Hospital until a population of about 1, 200 is reached.
p. Division for Water Quality Control. The Water Quality Control Act of 1964 created within the Department of Public Health a Division for Georgia Water Quality Control under the supervision and direction of a State Water Quality Control Board. The Division conducts programs in the sanitary collection and disposal of sewage, industrial waste and other wastes from counties, cities, towns, communities, and industries. It generally conducts activities to insure that the water resources of the State shall be utilized prudently in order to maintain a reasonable degree of purity in the waters of Georgia.
The recommended appropriation will provide an expanded program for the institutions and hospitals operated by the Department of Public Health, excluding Battey State Hospital where the number of annual admissions is leveling off and the average length of stay has declined.

HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT

The State Highway Department of Georgia was first created by the Act of August 16, 1916. The Department as presently constituted was approved by the Act of February 2, 1950, as subsequently amended (Title 95 of the Code of Georgia Annotated). These Acts provide that the Department shall consist of a highway Board which is charged with the general duties, management and control of the Highway Department.
The Department has exclusive jurisdiction and control over the construction and mai.'1tenance of the entire system of State Highways, roads, and bridges, except those operated by counties without State or Federal funds. It also has jurisdiction and control over all State and Federal funds appropriated for highway purposes.
The activities of the Department fall into four categories which in ascending order of their impact on appropriations are as follows:
a. General Operations - (7o/o of Appropriation)
This activity provides the necessary executive, managerial and administrative services not directly applicable to a specific construction or maintenance problem, snch as: executive, technical and financial management on a state-wide level; functional management on a departmental level; purchase and management of all equipment; purchase of warehouse stock; and administration of Workmen's Compensation awards.
The purpose and scope of this activity have changed little since the beginning of the Department, with no changes contemplated.
b. Authority Rentals - (22o/o of Appropriation)
This activity provides for the lease rental obligations of the Highway Department to the Georgia State Highway Authority, the State Office Building Authority and the Georgia Rural Roads Authority in accordance with lease rental contracts now in existence and hereafter entered into in connection with new projects approved by the Highway Department.
Due to the tremendous increase in Highway construction costs in the past few years and to the limitation placed upon the expenditure of Federal funds for highways causing a current cutback of approximately 80 million dollars, the Governor is recommending an increase of $4,876, 839 in 1967-68 and $9,253,275 in 1968-69 in Authority Lease Rentals over current year appropriation to finance the sale of $50, 000,000 in Highway Authority bonds in each year of the biennium for widening and resurfacing and otherwise reconstructing roads and bridges on the State -Federal-Aid primary and secondary systems exclusive of Interstate roads. In addition, this increase in Authority Lease Rentals will provide for State Highway Authority Bonds of $4, 250,000 and Rural Road Authority bonds in the amount of $16,000,000 for the first year of the biennium and additional Highway Authority bpnds of $4, 400,000 and additional Rural Roads Authority bonds of $10,750, 000 in the second year of the biennium.

c. Maintenance and Betterments by State Personnel (31 o/o of Appropriation)
This activity includes the preservation and maintenance of the roads and bridges on the State Highway System; traffic services, such as land and edge striping and the fabrication and erection of traffic signs; operation of shops for repairs to state-owned equipment, a state-wide radio system, and a truck weighing unit which serves to prevent undue damages to the roads from overweight vehicles and to minimize the traffic hazards from oversize vehicles; and performance of betterments which cannot economically be done by contract, such as shoulder construction, soil or stone surfacing, leveling and resealing surfaces, and widening of existing pavements.
While these functions are not eligible for Federal participation, they are vital to the safety of road users and to the preservation of an investment in the highway system in excess of a billion dollars.
The recommendations for the biennium propose allocations of $35. 4 and $36. 7 million, respectively, to maintenance, which represents an annual maintenance cost of approximately 2o/o of the total value. This recommendation is approximately one-third of the total proposed budget and reflects a substantial increase over any previous year. The funds requested in the biennium budget, along with the continuing Bond Program for resurfacing, will enable the Highway Department to resurface approximately one-tenth of the total State System or l, 700 miles each year.
d. Planning and Construction of Roadways - (40o/o of Appropriation)
This activity receives a major portion of both the revenue and the effort of the Department due primarily to the influence of Federal funds which are allocated for this purpose alone and which will not be available unless matched by State funds.
The planning function consists of a study of a proposed route to determine the present and potential volume of traffic; the present and potential cultural development of the area to be served; road needs; alternative locations for maximum usefulness, comparative benefits, relative costs, and availability of rights of way. It also obtains Federal Bureau of Roads approval and concurrence in the above determinations.
The engineering function consists of public hearings to determine local views; final location, acquisition of rights of way, and geometric design of the roadway; preparation of bid proposals showing the items of work to be done, the materials needed and the specifications under which the job will be built; advertising for bids, public reception of bids, and public award of contracts; and obtaining Federal Bureau of Roads approval and concurrence in the above determinations.
The construction activity consists of placing orders to the successful contractor to begin work; furnishing detailed engineering supervision as the work progresses by engineers assigned to the specific job; providing

134

HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT

regular periodic inspections and final inspection and acceptance of the completed work by senior engineers from both the area and central construction headquarters; and obtaining Federal Bureau of Roads approval and concurrence in the above.
Federal funds allocated to the Highway Department are expected to be $71 million in fiscal 1968 and $76.7 million in fiscal 1969. State funds required to match the Federal apportionment will be $27.8 and $28. 5 million respectively.

Appropriations are recommended for budget units of the Highway Department as follows:

Georgia counties and municipalities are in the impossible situation of being unable to finance from local revenues many programs beneficial to the citizens of their communities. The scope of this problem and the need for a solution has been widely acknowledged.
Of the many solutions advanced and proposals made, no one solution or proposal, as yet, has gained wide public acceptance. An ultimate solution must be reached quickly and in all probability will require proper legislation.
To help alleviate the present strenuous burden on local tax revenues and to give the counties, municipalities and General Assembly an opportunity to consider the problem and arrive at a solution, it is recommended that $10 million be provided in fiscal 1968 as additional grants

to counties and municipalities. Distribution of these funds shall be made by the State Treasurer in accordance with Legislation to be enacted by the General Assembly and for such purposes as may be provided therein. It is the recommendation of the Governor that the proposed legislation be broad and flexible enough to allow these funds to be used for any critical need of the cities and counties and not be restricted to only those purposes now specified by law.

The appropriation shown below will provide additional grants to counties and municipalities in fiscal 1968, as follows:

1967-68

Grants to Counties $5,000,000

Grants to Munici2alities $5,000,000

$300,000 will be needed for improvements and expansion of market

facilities to keep pace with current market needs. Due to the rapid

changes in agricultural marketing, it is unrealistic to project the exact

projects that will be necessary for fiscal years 1970, 1971 and 1972.

alleviate much of this problem. The re-

modeling would consist of: ( l} The first floor for offices both administra-

tive and for handling of prisoners and a control area for security; (2) the

second floor would house a dormitory and a medical center-hospital area;

and (3} the third floor area would consist of three dormitory units. Inmates

housed in this building would total 250.

preliminary engineering to establish alignments, station locations, and

design criteria which was started in July, 1966 and will be finished in

August, 1967, financed by local and federal funds. The third step is the

logical outgrowth of the second step and must follow immediately so that

the orderly development of the project will continue without loss of mo-

mentum or waste of time and money. The Authority is assured that the

appropriation requested herein can be matched by $2 million from the

U. S. Department of HUD. These funds will cover that part of right of

way acquisition and design that can be accomplished in fiscal 1968. The

work of right of way acquisition and detail design will require three years

to complete so that being started with this appropriation in fiscal 1968,

it will finish early in fiscal 1971. The last step of the North-South pro-

Georgia Veterans Nursing Home

Project #3

Modernization of Georgia War Veterans Home

Location

Augusta

Location

Milledgeville State Hospital

Description and Need

In order to provide nursing care to the

State's Veterans, the Veterans Service

Board sought and gained approval to con-

struct and equip a 150-bed nursing home. The amount necessary for con-

struction and equipment is $2, 014,260 with the Federal Veterans Admin-

istration participating in the form of a grant equal to half of the total cost.

The State has provided $900, 000 and the Federal Veterans Administration

has matched this amount.

Description and Need

To relieve the overcrowding, unsanitary

conditions, and poorly furnished facilities

of the present Home, the Veterans Service

Board proposes to completely modernize the present War Veterans Home.

Modernization plans call for the elimination of dormitories and open wards

on two floors, replacement of doors and windows, installation of modern

toilets and showers, the addition of an elevator, and other general improve-

ments. Annual operating cost will approximate $725,000.

This additional request of State funds is to match increased Federal participation of $59,630, and to provide $95, 000 for the purchase of land. The Federal grant excludes the purchase of land and applies only to actual construction and equipment cost. The purchase of land by the Veterans Board has been made necessary since an attempted gift of land by the City of Augusta has been declared illegal. Annual operating expenses will approximate $980, 000.
