The present organization of the Supreme Court is defined in the Constitution of 1945 (Art. VI. Sec. 2, Pars. 1 thru 7) and in the Code of Georgia Annotated (Chaps. 24-38 thru 24-46).
The Supreme Court exercises appellate jurisdiction only in cases arising in the Superior Courts or City Courts which involve any of the following eight classifications of litigation, namely: cases that depend upon a construction of the constitutions of Georgia or the United States, or of treaties; cases in which the constitutionality of any law of Georgia or the United States is in question; cases respecting title to land; all equity cases; all cases which involve the validity or construction of will; all cases of conviction of a capital felony; all habeas corpus cases; all cases involving extraordinary remedies; all divorce and alimony cases. It also has jurisdiction over cases certified to it by the Court of Appeals or carried from that Court by writ of certiorari.
There are seven Justices on the bench of the Supreme Court, and from time to time, they elect their Chief Justice and Presiding Justice. The qualifications for the office are three years residence, age of thirty years or over, and seven years experience in the practice of law. The terms of office are for six years each. The Justices are elected at the same general election at which members of the General Assembly are elected.

The Supreme Court makes and publishes its rules covering every phase of practice in and before the Court. It has authority to appoint and fix the salary for its clerks, sheriff, reporter, law assistants and other necessary personnel.

The Supreme Court is requesting a net increase of $4,742 over the funds available for the current year. Included in their request are salary increases of $4,500 each for the seven Justices totaling $31,500; a 5% within-grade increase for all em ployees except Justices totaling $13,691; funds in the amount of $5,000 for promotions, $2,077 for related increase in cost of retirement contributions, and an increase in operating expenses of $259. This increase of $52,527 is offset by a decrease of$47,785 in 5-year amortization payments to the pension accumulation fund for Judges which will be non-recurring in FY 1970.

For Fiscal Year 1971, the Supreme Court is requesting a decrease in appropriation of $12,572 due to non-recurring amortization payments to the Judges pension accumulation fund which will have been completed in 1970.

The Court of Appeals exercises appellate jurisdiction only for the trial and correction of errors of law in those cases arising in the Superior, City, and Civil Courts over which the Supreme Court does not have jurisdiction.

The Judges are elected at the same general election at which members of the General Assembly are elected. The qualifications of the office are three years residence, age of 30 years or over, and seven years experience in the practice of law. The terms of office are for six years each.

These increases are offset by a decrease of $19,114 in the 5-year amortization payment to the Judges pension accumulation fund.
For Fiscal Year 1971, the Court of Appeals is requesting additional funds of $17,100 for a 5% within-grade salf~ry increase for all employees except Judges, and for related increases in pensions and benefits.

The office of Comptroller General as presently organized is specifically provided for in the Constitution of 1945 and in Georgia Laws (Chapter 40-14 and 40-15 of the Code of Georgia Annotated). The term of office of the Comptroller General is for four years. He is elected by the voters at the same general election at which the Governor and other executive officers are elected.
Among the general duties of his office are the keeping of books on all taxes, fees, and other funds which the Department of Revenue and all other departments and offices collect and deposit with the State Treasurer, and the countersigning of all warrants issued to each department, board or commission.
The Comptroller General also serves as Insurance Commissioner in carrying out the duties and responsibilities of the Insurance Department which was created by an Act of the 1912 General Assembly (Chapter 56-2 of the Code of G"orgia Annotated). The regulation of insurance includes licensing of 876 insurance companies and regulating and assuring the solvency of these companies; licensing of about 28,000 insurance agents in Georgia and conducting approximately 6,100 examinations each year; making periodic examinations of each insurance company; and receiving, reviewing and investigating over 1,000 complaints and inquiries per month relating to insurance.
1 I Includes proposed supplemental appropriation of $75,708.

The Georgia Industrial Loan Act of 1955 designated the Comptroller General as the Georgia Industrial Loan Commissioner with all the powers and authorities provided for such commissioner. This includes licensing and supervising of 1,093 industrial loan offices; approval of industrial loan rates and fees; quarterly examination of each office; and receiving and reviewing complaints. He further has the duty and authority to supervise and exercise regulatory powers over the making of loans of $2,500 or less by small loan companies in the State.
The Comptroller General's duties were further increased by the enactment of subsequent legislation which required him, as Insurance Commissioner to serve as Georgia Safety Fire Commissioner (Chapter 92A-7 of the Code of Georgia Annotated). The administration of the Fire Safety Code includes enforcement of fire laws in every county in the State and the inspection of all schools and public buildings in Georgia for fire safety. As Safety Fire Commissioner, the Comptroller is also required to enforce the provisions of the Liquified Petroleum Safety Act, (Chapter 73-3 of the C.ode of Georgia Annotated). Additionally, the 1968 General Assembly passed Act No. 928 providing for the establishment of starrdards for the construction of mobile homes and designated the Safety Fire Commissioner as the enforcing authority.
For the next biennium, the Comptroller General is requesting an increase the first year of $275,854 or 18.9%, and an increase the second year of $190,634 or 11%. Funds are requested the first year for 25 additional positions: 2 for the administrative office; 8 for the Insurance Division; 3 for the Loan Division; and 12 for the Safety-Fire Division. In addition to the normal within-grade increases, funds are included for upgradings, promotions, and related benefits. In the second year, funds are requested to provide for 19 new positions: 7 in the Insurance Division, 3 in the Loan Division, and 9 for the Safety-Fire Division. In addition, funds are requested for normal within-grade increases, related benefits, and operating expense items.

The State Computer Service Center was established on October 13, 1966 by Executive Order issued by the Governor of Georgia and began operations January 1967.
The Order provides that the operations of the Computer Center shall be governed, supervised and controlled by a Committee of six members to be composed of the State Budget Officer, ex officio; the State Auditor, ex officio, Chairman; the Fiscal Officer, Georgia Department of Public Health; the Director of General Staff Services, Department of Femily and Children Services; the Treasurer, State Highway Department, and State Planning Officer.
This Committee shall serve at the pleasure of the Governor and shall have full administrative and operational control of the Center to include the approval of agreements for services to the various participating agencies and departments of State Government.

This unit provides the services of a modern electronic computer center to the small State agencies which separately can not economically justify a staff or sustain such a center.
Funds to administer the Center are derived from assessments to the various partici pating agencies based on usage. Additionally, the Computer Center is requesting for the first time State funds in the amount of $501,733 to increase the capability of the Center to meet the computer needs of additional State agencies now with out computer service.

The Budget Bureau was established by Georgia Laws 1931, amended by Georgia Laws 1962, Code Chapter 4{}-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' requests for payment on budget allotments.

In 1967, a Management Review Section was established to provide technical and managerial assistance to individual State agencies in the identification and solution of specific problems and the overall improvement of internal policies, organization, procedures, practices and controls. This section also provides technical assistance to State agencies in the study, installation, and utilization of electronic data pro cessing systems.
For the next biennium, the Budget Bureau is requesting additional funds to increase the staff of the Management Review Section from four to six positions in order to fulfill the requests the Bureau is receiving for managerial assistance. Normal increases are requested to continue the present level by providing for annual within-grade salary increases and related expenses, upgrading of 2 stenographic positions and funds for a proposed pay adjustment.

The State Planning and Programming Bureau was created by Act No. 123 of the 1967 Georgia General Assembly. The purpose of the Bureau is to (1) promote the orderly growth and development of the State of Georgia through the proper planning and programming of the affairs of State Government, and (2) make available such planning and programming service, technical assistance, information and advice to departments, agencies and institutions of State Government, to the General Assembly and to local and joint units of government and other public bodies as may be appropriate.
The organization of the Bureau consists of the office of the State Planning Officer, Office of Planning and Coordination, Office of Community Affairs, Office of Research and Information, and Office of Crime and Juvenile Delinquency Prevention.

For the biennium, the agency is requesting additional funds of $74,835 to continue the current level of services, and funds for improved quality of $6,500 for a computerized bookkeeping system and $7,100 for printing and publicity,supplies and materials.
Additionally, the agency is requesting funds of $27,860 in the first year and $32,831 in the second year to participate in a new program resulting from passage of the Federal Omnibus Crime and Safe Streets Act of 1968. This Act makes Federal funds available to State and units of local government for the improvement of law enforcement. To qualify for these funds the law provides that each State must establish a Planning Board who will supervise the preparation of comprehensive plans on law enforcement and who will administer the funds. The Governor, by Executive Order, designated the State Planning Bureau as the State agency to carry out the responsibilities imposed by the Federal Act, and appointed members of the Planning Board on Crime and Juvenile Delinquency Prevention as required by the Act.

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 Georgia's history as factually as possible to any interested party.
For the next biennium, the Historical Commission is requesting additional funds to provide nine additional positions and related operating expenses to meet workload increases. A total of $200,000 is requested in Capital Outlay for new construction, repairs, and renovation at various projects throughout the State.

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 placement service for Georgia workers and Georgia employers.
These programs are financed by federal grants and an annual appropriation by the General Assembly.
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.
For the next biennium, the Employment Security Agency is requesting additional State funds to provide for a longevity increase in the Commissioner's salary, minor maintenance and painting at 18 local offices, and the replacement of old and out moded equipment.

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 felong 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 the members of the General Assembly by advising and assisting individual members of committees, as well as the drafting of legislation.

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 State employees and their eligible dependents. As of November 15, 1968, 26,343 State employees were enrolled in the plan. 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. These functions are performed by an administrative staff of 12 employees.

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.
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.

The office of the Supervisor of Purchases was created by the Act of March 29, 1937. The duties and powers of the office, as originally defined were materially amplified by the amending Act of March 24, 1939 (Chapter 40-19 of the Code of Georgia Annotated).
Supplies, materials, equipment and printing required by any department, bureau or office of the State government can be obtained only upon requisition made to the Supervisor of Purchases, who then purchases or contracts for the purchase of such items on competitive bids. Where possible, preference is given to the bids of Georgia manufacturers, producers and dealers. 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, with the exception of those departments and institutions specifically exempted by the amending Act of March 18, 1964, (Chapter 40-1921 of the Code of Georgia Annotated), as well as documentation of insurance premium payments and coverage of State properties.
For the next biennium, the Supervisor of Purchases is requesting additional funds to increase the staff from 39 to 43 positions due to increased workload and a 44th position to specialize in the supervision of supply acquisitions and surplus property disposal. Normal increases are requested to provide for annual within-grade salary increases and related expenses.

The Georgia Science and Technology Commission was created by the 1964 Session of the General Assembly and supersedes the Georgia Nuclear Advisory Commission, which had been in effect since 1957.
The principal functions of the Georgia Science and Technology Commission are set forth in the 1964 Act, No. 987, as follows:
"The Commission shall review and evaluate the status of the scientific and technological resources and capabilities of the State of Georgia. It shall advise the Governor, the General Assembly and public agencies and institutions relative to scientific research and development matters, particularly as such matters affect the entire State. The Commission shall provide information, planning, evaluation, and recommendations for action to the Governor, the General Assembly, other agencies of the State, and private agencies within the State."
The law authorizes the creation of a Scientific Advisory Commission of not more than 20 outstanding scientists. It also authorizes the Commission to employ technical, scientific, and administrative personnel on a part-time or a full-time basis. The legislative act also directs the Commission to employ a director to serve as the administrative head of staff.

Members of the Commission are authorized to receive a per diem of $20 per day, plus actual expenses, in connection with meetings of the Commission.
For the next biennium the Commission is requesting additional funds to increase the staff from 5 to 7 to meet projected increases in workload and to relieve the Director of administrative details. Additionally, funds are requested for a new program to establish a Washington office with 2 employees to keep abreast of Federal programs and to maximize the number of Federal research and develop ment contracts and grants coming to the State of Georgia.

The State Treasurer is a Constitutional Officer elected by the people for a term of four years. 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 A5sembly. The Treasurer is forbidden by law to pay out any money except upon appropriations duly made by the General Assembly. The law, therefore, governs all payments made. The State Treasurer 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 insurance 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 receiving 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 staff of 12 positions.

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 andresponsibilities of the Confederate Pension and Records Division were transferred to this agency on December 31, 1960, 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's veterans and dependents in obtaining all benefits authorized by existing laws. The population of eligible veterans_ in our State is estimated to increase from 480,000 in FY 1968 to 495,000 in FY 1969, to 505,000 in FY 1970, and to 515,000 in FY 1971. To provide services to the veteran population the Department maintains 41 division offices throughout the State.
During FY 1970 and FY 1971, Georgia Veterans and their dependents will receive an estimated $500,000 in benefits largely through the efforts of this department.
For the next biennium, the Department of Veterans Service is requesting additional funds to increase the staff from 150 to 153 positions due to increased workloads. Normal increases are requested to continue the present level by providing for annual within-grade increases and related expenses, promotions and upgrading of 7 claims counselors, 35 field office managers, and 5 stenographers.

The Veterans Service Board was created by Act 344 of the General Assembly in 1945 as amended; the Georgia War Veterans Home was established by an Act of the 1955 General Assembly and amended in 1960. Under H. B. 651, approved by the 1966 General Assembly the Veterans Service Board was authorized to receive funds from governmental and non-governmental sources for the purpose of construction and operation of hospitals and nursing homes for the benefit of Georgia's war veterans.
The Veterans Service Board is the designated agency of the State to receive Federal aid under Title 24, U. S. Code Annotated. All funds received by the Board are expended for the care and support of disabled war veterans. For the Georgia War Veterans Home, which is a domiciliary care type facility, Federal aid is limited to a maximum of $3.50 per day for each eligible veteran. The remainder of the maintenance costs and the cost of salaries and administrative support are financed by State funds. Federal aid for the Georgia Veterans Nursing Home may not exceed $5.00 per patient day with the remainder of the costs provided by the State.

The Georgia War Veterans Home is located at Central State Hospital. It is operated by personnel at the hospital through a contractual agreement between the Veterans Service Board and the State Department of Public Health.

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 Gover nor 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 supervise 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.
For the next biennium, the Board is requesting funds to provide for an additional director emeritus due to the retirement of a director. Normal increases are requested to continue the present level by providing for annual within-grade salary increases and related expenses.

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 major activities, along with a brief description of duties and responsibilities are as follows:
a. 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 infor mation on the sources, quantit} and quality of Georgia's water resources and on the present and future utilization of these waters.
b. Topographic Mapping. The primary goal of the topographic mapping pro gram is to complete the mapping of the State so that the maps may be used for essential planning and development activities.
c. South Georgia Minerals Program. This program which originated primarily as a search for phosphate, and which involves around 20,000 square miles

of the State, is becoming diversified. Extensive phosphate deposits of commercial importance have been described from the Savannah area, and from Lanier, Lowndes and Echols counties.
Ten Project Reports have been published, mainly on phosphate, but also on certain other minerals discovered during the program. Much of the phosphate prospecting has now been accomplished, particularly upon the areas delineated which are of commercial value to industry.
The program applies now particularly to other useful minerals which are beingfound. These include the heavy minerals with emphasis on rutile, ilmenite, leucoxine, zircon, monazite and xenotime.
The program also is continuing the investigation of clays, both fullers earth and refractory, of sands for the manufacture of glass silica brick and construction purposes, of limestones, bauxite and iron ore.
The biennium request provides funds for 8 additional positions and related operating expenses, continuation cost to provide for normal salary increases and related expenses, and increases for the Water Resources Survey and the South Georgia Minerals Exploration Programs. In addition to this, funds are requested to begin a 7 year program to provide new and up-dated topographic maps of the entire State.

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 42 State parks consisting of 40,000 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 five small areas where a full-time superintendent cannot be justified.

Attendance at State parks has increased from 5,000,000 in fiscal year 1964 to over 6,777,000 in fiscal year 1968. Tent camping in Georgia has increased 12% over the previous year. The Department is meeting this demand by increasing its 1,823 modern tent camping sites to 2,498.
The biennium request includes additional funds for 29 new positions in FY 1970 and 23 new positions in FY 1971; increases for summer help and hourly labor; increased operating expenses primarily for motor vehicles, supplies, power, rents and equipment; and Capital Outlay for various projects.

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 Gen eral Assembly. Under this law and its amendments the State Soil and Water Con servation Committee and Georgia's twenty-seven 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.
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 165 watershed applications. Of these, 89 have been selected by the State Committee for planning, and 52 of the 89 have been designated by the Administrator of the Soil Conservation Service for Planning. 46 watersheds have already been approved for Federal Assistance and 10 watersheds have been completed.

The State Committee has on file 76 watershed applications awaiting designation for planning assistance, and there is a potential of at least 204 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 on the 19 projects authorized for Federal assistance since 1962 and 4 more work plans completed for which Federal assistance has not yet been authorized, the ratio of Federal funds to State funds is nearly 25 to 1.
The biennium request includes funds for 5 additional positions, operation of the 27 Soil and Water Conservation Districts and the Soil and Water Conservation Committee, and reimbursement to the Soil Conservation Service of the U. S. Department of Agriculture for the service of three watershed planning parties.

The Board of Pardons and Paroles was made a l''lnstitutional body by the 1945 Constitution (Art. V, Sec. 1, Par. 11) after it had previously been created by the Act of February 5, 1943 (Section 7750 of the Code of Georgia Annotated).
The Board has exclusive power to grant reprieves, pardons and paroles, to com mute 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 includ ing 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.

A more intensive program has been initiated to review more cases and grant paroles to a larger number of inmates by reviewing cases that have a larger degree of risk than has previously been considered eligible.

The State Board of Probation was created by an Act of February 8, 1956 (Georgia Laws 1956, Page 27). This Act also created a statewide 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 Compact Administrator establishing procedures to insure the System's 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.

The total caseload has increased from approximately 1.200 in 1956 to an average
in 1968 of approximately 10,500. The present caseload per officer is 126, and the projected increase of 570 in fiscal year 1969-70 and 600 in fiscal year 1970-71 will increase this number even more. Even with the large caseloads per officer the revocations have increased 18.9% in 1968 over 1967, due to better supervision and investigation procedures of the probation officers.
During the next biennium, the Board of Probation has planned to bring their personnel under the coverage of the Merit System, and an upgrading of probation officers and field secretaries, while at the same time improving the required qualifications, is planned to coincide with the placing of personnel under the Merit System coverage. The agency is also requesting an additional thirteen officers and six field secretaries in the first year and eight officers and five field secretaries in the second year to meet the rapidly increasing workload requirements. Increases in operating expenses are requested primarily due to the requested personnel increases.

STATE FUNDS
The Governor recommends an increase in State funds of $1,500,000 in FY 1970 and $1,000,000 in FY 1971. The recommendation is made in total due to adoption of P.L. 90.576 by the Congress subsequent to the submission of the request by the Department of Education. P.L. 90.576 or the "Vocational Amendments of 1968" contains several complex provisions, the effect of which will not be known until Georgia's plans to meet the requirements of the law are approved by the office of Education. The Governor recommends that prior to approval of the FY 1970 Operating Budget that the allocation of funds to Vocational Education Line Item Grants be subject to the approval of the Fiscal Affairs Sub-Committee of the Senate and House of Representatives.

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 addition to scholarship funds, if needed, and provides assistance for students of less outstanding scholastic ability who do not qualify for scholarship funds.
At the end of Fiscal Year 1968 there were 12,458 guaranteed loans outstanding with an average dollar amount of $856 or a total of $10,659,953 in loans.

Under Federal regulations a Loan Reserve equal to 10% of guaranteed loans outstanding must be maintained. Federal legislation passed in 1968 requires that only 2"/o of the Reserve be maintained by the State Guaranty Agency. It is anticipated that no additional State funds will be needed for the Loan Reserve for many years. The Federal government has also increased the rate of interest they will pay on student loans. State funds therefore are to be used primarily to pay a 0.5% interest subsidy.
For the biennium, the agency requests funds to increase the staff from 9.7 to 14.7 to meet increased workload. Loans guaranteed are expected to increase by 10,000 in the first year and over 10,000 in the second year of the biennium.

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.
An amendment to the Constitution ratified in November 1968 provides for an increase in the total payable to a recipient from $5,000 to $10,000, and strikes the per annum limitation. The total number of scholarships is to remain at 140.
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.

REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA

The Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia was created by the Act of August 28, 1931 (Section 32-101 of the Code of Georgia Annotated). The Board was made a constitutional body vested with the government, control and management of the University System of Georgia and all of its institutions by the 1945 Constitution (Article VIII, Section 4).
The Board of Regents is responsible for the employment of all faculty members and other personnel of the University System and its institutions. It has power to consolidate, suspend and/or abolish institutions; to add or abolish degrees; to exer cise full control over the properties of the University System and its component institutions; to elect or appoint professors, educators, stewards, or any other offi cers necessary for all of the schools in the University System, as may be authorized by the General Assembly, and to fix their compensation; and to allocate or distri bute State funds among the institutions of the University System in such manner and amount as will further an efficient and economical operation of the University System.
Enrollment figures for the University System in terms of the fall quarter and the average number of equivalent fulltime (EFT) students for the four quarters of the academic year are as follows.

The funds requested would provide for additional staff, salary increases each year of 5% for academic personnel and 10% for non-academic personnel and for increases in operating expenses of programs of instruction and research. The agency request for funds to apply to General Operations is determined through the use of a formula in which an estimate of student quarter hours of instruction each year is the workload determinant. The request is made in two categories; (1) a continuation program in which formula financing at approximately the same level that applies in FY 1969 is requested, and (2) improved quality, in which funds required to meet full formula requirements are requested. The agency request and funds recommended for General Operations are shown in Schedule 2(a). The Agency request and recommendations for Sponsored Operations are shown in schedule 2(b).

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 Commission. 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 Commission. If the recipient elects not to practice in an approved area or site, he will repay the scholarship at 6% 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.
For the biennium, the Commission is requesting funds to increase its staff from 5.3 to 8.3. The agency also requests an increase for scholarships of $250,000 the first year and $200,000 the second 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. 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 JVhich are elected by the members of the Teachers Retirement System, three ex-officio, and the seventh member is elected as a Financial Advisor by the other six members. 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 responsibility of the Board of Trustees and the staff of the retirement systern to provide the necessary records for each member; to invest all assets in keep ing with the provisions of the Act; and to provide the necessary funds to pay the benefits of the members when they retire.
The latest actuarial examination of the system has shown that the employer contri butions to the Pension Accumulation Matching Fund may be reduced from the present 8.5% to 7.0%.
Beginning with Fiscal Year 1970, the administrative expense of operating the systern will be financed from contributions of participating agencies.
The Governor recommends a State appropriation of $347,000 in each year of the biennium to finance a minimum floor of $5.00 for each year of service up to 40 years for those members of the Teachers' Retirement System who retired on or before July 1, 1961.

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.
c. 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.
d. Staff Devdopment. 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 selfreliance 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 100% Federal programs administered by the Department. Welfare programs paid 100% from local funds and administered by the county welfare departments are not included in this budget.

The Georgia Training School for Boys was created by an Act of the General Ar.sembly in 1919 (Section 77-7 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 and responsibilities 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 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 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 four widows being cared for at the home, which is located in Fulton County. The total cost of maintaining the home during the past year was $33,983.

Also incorpaated in its services will be facilities for extnesive research in mental retardation and professional and lay education programs. Programs will also include pre- and posthospital care for the retarded.

Medical Facility. This activity is responsible for administering two Federal grant programs consisting of the Hospital Construction Act of 1945 ("C" Funds), and the Medical Facilities Act of 1954 ("G" Funds) which provide financial assistance to the State and communities in the planning and construction of hospitals and related categorical medical care facilities sponsored by non-profit and local governmental agencies in Georgia. Heretofore, State funds have been available to match "C" funds only.

The goals of this program are as follows: to stimulate more local communities in effective community planning, construction and renovation of general hospitals, especially emphasizing the construction of psychiatric units in these hospitals; and to stimulate more local communities and existing hospitals to provide a wider variety of specialized services such as rehabilitation facilities, nursing homes, chronic illness units and diagnostic and treatment centers for outpatients.

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 maintenance 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- (6% of Appropriation)
This activity provides the necessary executive, managerial and administrative services not directly applicable to a specific construction or maintenance problem such 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- (13% of Appropriation)
This activity provides for the lease rental obligations of the Highway Department to the Georgia Building Authority and the Georgia Highway Authority, successor to the State Office Building Authority, the Georgia State Highway 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. The recommended appropriation for the second vear of the biennium provides 15% of the previous year's total appropriation. The increase will finance a new bond program of approximately $100 million for improvements to roads in cities and urban areas.
c. Maintenance and Betterments by State Personnel - (27% 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 stateowned 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.

221

HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT

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 sys tern in excess of a billion dollars. The recommendations for the biennium propose allocations of $43.4 million and $45.9 million, respectively, and provide for the establishment of six new interstate maintenance patrol sections, increases for non merit maintenance labor and the inventorying of all bridges as required by the Federal Aid Highway Act of 1968. 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 1,700 miles each year.
d. Planning and Construction of Roadways (54% of Appropriation}
This activity receives a major portion of both the revenue and the effort of the De partment 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 develop ment of the area to be served; road needs; alternative locations for maximum use fulness, comparative benefits, relative costs, and availability of rights of way. It also obtains Federal Bureau of Roads approval and concurrence in the above deter minations.
The engineering function consists of public hearings to determine local views; final location, acquisition of rights of way, and geometric design of the roadway; pre paration 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 regular periodic inspections and acceptance of the completed work by senior engineers from both the area and central construction headquarters; and obtaining Federal Bureau of Roads ap proval and concurrence in the above.
Federal funds allocated to the Highway Department are expected to be $109 mil lion for each year of the biennium. State funds required to match the Federal ap portionment will be $39.9 million for each year of the biennium.

In summary, the recommended appropriations are based on a motor fuel tax rate of 8 cents per gallon, and a general fund appropriation in the first year of $30.1 million which is to be offset by the estimated revenues from the recommended 1% cent increase in the motor fuel tax to be effective June 1, 1969, will provide addi tiona! funds for programs as follows:

State Aid grants to counties are made available by State appropriation in accord ance with a procedure established under the Act of 1945 (Section 92-1404 of the Code of Georgia Annotated), which provides fixed distribution of funds to the counties for the construction and maintenance of public roads, and the Act of 1951, making distribution of funds based on public road mileage ratio.
The grants are disbursed to counties through the office of the State Treasurer. Prior to disbursement of funds under the Act of 1951, the State Highway Department must certify a schedule of Public Road Mileage in each county in order to

assure correct distribution of the grants. The annual reports of the State Auditor show the amount of funds paid to each county.

The appropriation shown below provides for continuation of the State Aid Grants to Counties for Roads under the Act of 1945 and 1951.

The Board of Directors of the Department of Industry and Trade is authorized by Georgia Code 40-2107 to plan and establish a long-term policy in regard to the development and maintenance of aviation and aviation facilities in the State and to cooperate with the Aeronautics Advisory Board and the State Highway Board in regard to the planning, construction, development and maintenance of airports, landing fields, and air navigation facilities in the State. The Board is also authorized to cooperate with municipalities and other political subdivisions of the State, and with other departments, whether Federal, State or Local, in the planning, development, maintenance and protection of a system of air routes, airports, landing fields and other aviation facilities in the State.

The Department of Industry and Trade cooperates with the State Highway Department in all airport development projects involving Capital Outlay funds. The Highway Department's professional engineers, qualified inspectors and accounting system is ideally suited to the task of engineering and supervising the projects and accounting for the funds involved.

The requested appropriation for Capital Outlay will provide $140,000 in State funds the first year to be matched 50% with local funds for a slurry seal coating at the following World War II surplus airports:

Cordele Municipal Donalsonville Municipal Macon-Herbert Smart Airport St. Mary's Airport

Statesboro Municipal Sylvania Airport Tifton-Myers Airport

l/ Includes $446,364 supplemental request and $234,725 transferred from the Governor's Emergency Fund.

At the 1968 budget request presentation to the General Assembly, the Department of Industry and Trade proposed a policy of requesting appropriations for specific airport projects after Federal and Local funds were available so that the actual amount of all State funds needed would be pre-determined. This policy necessitated requesting funds in a supplemental budget in each year following 1968.

The Aviation Study Committee of the House of Representatives has recommended that a change in this policy be made. This change would make funds available in the General Appropriations Act to enable the Department to enter into contracts immediately upon receipt of FAA approval.

Therefore, the amount of $500,000 is being requested in both years as a lump sum appropriation to be applied to projects subject to the following stipulations:

(1) Recommendations for specific amounts on each airport project to be made by the appropriate committee of the General Assembly.

(2) Said recommendations receive the approval of the Governor.

The recommended appropriation provides $140,000 in the first year for the State's portion of the cost of the slurry seal coating at the seven proposed airports and $250,000 in both years for the State's matching portion for undetermined projects.

The State Highway Department is the budget unit for which the following State appropriations are recommended:

I. New Projects to be Financed by Authority Lease Rentals

The following statement was submitted to the Budget Bureau by the Board of Regents and is included in the Capital Outlay Proposal upon the request of the Board:
"The following list of projects must be considered as tentative but represents the current thinking of the Board of Regents. All of these projects will be reviewed by the Board prior to including any one of them in a bond issue, and the priority and size of the projects will be determined by the amount of bond funds available at the time of the sale of bonds. The availability of land and Federal grants affect the size and priority of projects. The academic program changes and enrollment variations alter the priority of the projects. In the course of the development of a construction program of the magnitude represented by this budget, it is inevitably necessary to adjust the projects due to changes which develop in design and fluctua tions in the construction market, often necessitating constructing a project in phases or even deferring it."
