Atlanta, Georgia December 22, 1948

Hon. Herman Talmadge, Governor State Capitol Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Governor:

In submitting the, T~f~d; A~nual Report of the State Board of Corrections for
the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1948, tlw Board desires to make several recomrne~ da~ions concerning its duties with reference to providing proper facilities for the seirf~

gation of certain dasse5 of prisoners. .

.

,

With re~pect to this subject Secti~n No. 8 of the Act creating the State Boar"d.?f

Corrections, approved February ist, 1946, obligates the Bo~rd to provide proper facili:

ties. for the segregation of juveniles, first offenders, habitual criminals and incorrigibles, and Section No. 14 of said Act di~ects that women inmates of the correctional system

be removed from proximity to the mens prison.

.

..

Compliance with the last mentioned legislative mandate will necessa.\'ily require the construction ,of a new prison for ~omen, same bei~g a project highly favored an~~ wholeheartedly endorsed by the Board for many good reasons. With 1;1. new priso~ for
women strategically located at a more suitable and accessible point, prefe~ably hetween Atlanta and Macon, the p;~sent womensbuilding would be available. for the segrega~

tion of first 'offender;;. An institution for juveniles and a prison for inc9rrigibles would

then complete the segregation program provided for in said Act. An institution for juveniles ha~ long been recognized as an indispensable unit in

a modern State Prison System. With such an institution complete segregation from ali

other classes of prisoners is made possible, thereby greatly enhancing the chance fm;

reformation and rehabilitation. Vocational and occupational training courses, agriculture,

livestock and dairying would const,itute a well balanced program in which everyjuve; nile inmate could be fitted to a suitable place and :~;eceive the training to which he w';ts

best a!lapted.

'



Last, but, by no means least in importance, we come to the subject of a prison for incorrigibles. Incorrigibility is not a prison problem peeuliar to Georgia alo~e.

Every state in the Union has its average percentage of this type. To those w{thout

Annual Report of the State Board of Corrections

actual experience in dealing with this class of prisoners it is difficult to portray a comprehensible picture of the gravity of the problems involved. Once a prisoner reaches a complete state of incorrigibility the likelihood of his reformation is so remote its occurrence borders on the miraculous. The full knowledge of this awful truth is the incentive that spurs penal authorities to continually work for suitable facilities and equipment conductive to the prevention of incorrigibility insofar as is humanly possible. Incorrigible prisoners are a burdensome liability. No county wants them in its public works camp, and as a matter of fact few county prison buildings are strong enough to hold them. Consequently, every incorrigible prisoner in the system is eventually trans ferred to the State Prison at Reidsville.
Invariably, it is the incorrigible element that promotes strikes and riots, advocates disobedience to prison rules, and strives continually to create chaos and confusion. Even though they he segregated from the general prison population, their corrosive in. fluence permeates the entire prison to the demoralization of all other inmates. It is the unanimous opinion of all State and County penal authorities that the State should make immediate provision for the construction of a prison for incorrigihles. Such an institution would have a stabilizing effect throughout the entire system. It is the opinion of the Board that the best plan would provide for the construction of a medium size fire and escape proof prison at a location where the inmates could he safdy worked in the production of crushed rock for road building purposes.
A sepcrate prison for incorrigibles will solve several serious problems. First, it will provide an escape proof building and bring an end to mass escapes. Second, it can be located in a section of rock quarry sites. The advantage of such a location arises from the fact that a rock quarry is the safest place in which to work and maintain custody of desperate prisoners. Third, it will segregate the hardened, vtcwus incorrigible element from the general prison population.
As long as an incorrigible prisoner is quartered with a general prison population, enjoying the same comforts and privileges accorded the average prisoner, he has no incentive to behave himself. The two most important functions of a prison for iucorrigibles is to provide safe and secure custody, and furnish an incentive for good behavior. A priwn lacking the C()mforts and conveniences of a general prison building; located in an isolated section, with no entertainment provided, no visiting allowed, coupled with hard manual labor furnishes a strong incentive to an unruly prisoner to earn his way back to a general prison by good behavior aud a change of attitude.
To carry out the segregation program provided by law, the Board urgently recommends a special appropriation or allocation in the t~um of $600,000.00 for the following purposes, to wit: $250,000.00 to construct and equip a new prison for wo,nen; $250,000.00 to construct and equip an institution for juveniles, and $l00,000.00 to construct and equip a prison for incorrigibles.
In conclusion, the Board again desires to point out that the State is not utilizing the full productive capacity of the State Prison. If the State would give the prison its printing and stationery business, which the prison is well equipped to handle, it would not only effect substantial savings, but, would afford occupational and vocational training opportunities to many of the inmates. The manufacturing of concrete culvert piping for use in road construction, the manufacturing of mop~, brooms, axe and

shovel handles, and simple articles of clothing and shoes for the thousands of inmates in State institutions are among other occupational training industries that could be carried on at the State Prison with a modest outlay for equipment. Under the law, the State is the only consumer the prison can supply. It has no other outlet. It is capable of producing many things used by the State every day, but it seems that it is the State's policy to place its business elsewhere. The State Board of Corrections feels that the State should purchase from the State Prison every need the prison is capable of supplying. The adoption of such policy would enable the Board to carry on a first class occupational and vocational training pro~ram. First, such program would be greatly conducive to rehabilitation. Second, prisoners di~charged as traim~d workers are less apt to commit another crime. Last but not least, the profit from a well balanced industrial program would offset the dead loss sustained by the Prison in main taining all of the aged, blind, crippled and chronically ill prisoners in the entire prison system.
The Board earnestly recommends that an allocation or special appropriation of at least $125,000.00 be made available for the establishment of a proper industrial program at the State Prison.
The final recommendation of the Board has reference to the provisions made in Section I of said Act concerning expenses incurred by the members attending meet
ing:> of the Board, or on tours of inspection. Tt is provided in Section I that the mem
hers of the Board shall receive the sum of $10.00 per day for each day of actual attendance at the meetings of the Board or on tours of inspection, in lieu of expenses incurred m connection therewith, and actual cost of transportation. The members serve without salary, and the provisions above quoted are now inadequate to fully reimburse the members for all expenses incurred. By reason of their interest the members are perfectly willing to donate their time to the management and supervision of the penal system, but, feel that ~dequate provisions for their expenses should be made, and to that end respectfully recommend that said Section be amended so as to provide that the $10.00 per day shall be in addition to, rather than in lieu of expenses incurred for each day of actual attendance at Board meetings, or on tours of inspection.

Respectfully submitted, C. A. Williams, Director STATE BOARD of CORRECTIONS

FINANCIAL and STATISTICAL SUMMARY

During the fiscal year ended June 30th, 1948, the State Board of Corrections operated under two seperate budget allotments. The administrative offices in the StateCapitol expended $72,804.04 during the year and for the previous fiscal year the expenditure for the operation of this unit amounted to $65, 542.07. The increase in operating costs this year over the previous year amounted to $7,261.97 and this increase is partly due to increase in employment to handle a larger volume in administrative work in connection with increased convictions during the year.
From funds a!lotten to the Georgia State Prison, Reidsville, Georgia, we have operated a Charlton Prison Branch at Folkston, Georgia, a Coffee Prison Branch at Douglas, Georgia, and the office of State Superintendent of Farms. The appointment of the State Superintendent of Farms took place on November 1st, 1947. Charlton Prison Branch was opened on November 19th, 1947 and Coffee Prison Branch began operations on June 21st, 1948. The other unit directly under our supervision is the Georgia Juvenile Training Institute at Rome, Georgia and this unit was opened on November 22nd, 1946.
The total inmate days for the fiscal year in the several units mentioned above totaled 634,157, as compared to 599,165 for the previous year. This represents an increase of inmate days for the two years of 34,992.
The total net operating maintenance cost of the Georgia State Prison and the four' 4) other units under our direct supervision totaled $759,401.26, which represented an increase of $144,972.97 over the previous year. This increase in cost is partly due to increased inmate population, partly due to higher prices and partly due to expanded facilities at the Georgia State Prison and at the Georgia Juvenile Training Institute. The pereentage increase over the previous fiscal year amounted to 19.1%.
Comparative figures are listed below to indicate the actual cost per day for inm 1tes in our custody and this figure includes those at the Georgia State Prison, the two prison branches and the Georgia Juvenile Training Institute:

It might be added that we are operating the two prison branches for road work designated by the State Highway Department and we pay the expenses for the operatir.n of the two prison branches and the State Highway Department issues checks to us after reports have been made as to the amounts due for each month's operation.
During the fiscal year we purchased eight (8) tracts of land contlguous to the prison reservation and on some of the tracts there were improvements. The total cost of this investment amounted to $27,500.00 and the outlay figure is included in the total operating costs of the Georgia State Prison and other units.

Annual Report of the State Board ot Corrections

------------------~--------------------------~~~---------

Revenue collections for the fiscal year amounted to $239,684.89, which represented an increase over the previous year of $46,321.75.
The prison farm, which is solely operated by inmate help and under supervision of hired personnel, had a total production figure for the seven (7) units comprising the farm amounting to $301,729.85 and this figure represented an increase over the previous fiscal year of $33,657.33
We have a Registered Jersey Herd and a Grade Herd, comprised of sufficient stock to furnish the prison population sufficient dairy products and thereb,r we do not have to purchase items of this type. The Registered Jersey Herd has a three (3) year H.I.R. average of 8,164 pounds of 5.23% milk and 427 pounds of butterfat. The Grade Herd had been on a D.H.I.A. test for the final nine months of the fiscal year and should finish the year's test with an average of approximately 5,500 pounds of milk and 276 pounds of butterfat. Yearly we sell at auction surplus young bulls and retain our heifers in order to build up the hetd. This fiscal year we sold at auction twenty-seven (27) young Jersey bulls and since the beginning of the spring of 1945 we have disposed of ninety-three (93) registered Jersey bulls and have received a total of $17,750.00 for the sale of the animals.
We are making every effort to increase the number in our Beef Herd and our pork production now is sufficient to furnish us with all fresh pork required and practically all of the cured pork products needed at the Institution.
The Poultry Program has been most successful during the fiscal year and we had a total production of $39,428.92, which represented an increase over the previous year of $24,999.79. This project furnished the prison with 53,459 1-4 dozen of eggs and also with 24,771 1-2 pounds of frytors, which represented culls of the flock.
At the Georgia State Prison we have eight (8) industrial units, which arQ maintained to serve the prison primarily and several of them are revenue producing units. We maintain a Print Shop, which does all of the printing for the Georgia State Prison, the administra_ tive office and does a small amount of outside printing for other State units. We have a Metal Plant which takes care of all metal work which can be performed by the inmate population and this unit performs the necessary metal work for the prison other than highly technical work. The Concrete Plant manufactures the necessary concrete blocks for new construction and maintenance. If the necessary machinery were purchased for this unit, we would be in a position to manufacture concrete pipe for the State Highway Department, as we have rendered this service in the past. The Mattress Factory furnishes the prison with mattresses and pillows and during the fiscal year this unit turned over to the Institution 347 mattresses and 117 pillows, which represented the requirements during the year for the Institution. The Garment Factory produced during the fiscal year $13,580.22 in various types of garments and this represents an increase over the previous fiscal year in production of $6,230.05.
The principal industrial unit at the Georgia State Prison is the License Plate Tag Plant. This unit furnishes all license plate tags for the State Revenue Department and also manufactures some smaller orders of tags for the Public Service Commission and other State units. During the fiscal year this unit manufactured 763,919 automobile tags and 10,924 motorcycle tags and thereby accrued revenue from the State Revenue Department of $165,081.19 on 1948liscense plate tag production.
The production of lumber during the past fiscal year was much lower than the previous year, but this deficit was due to the fact that our requirements were not so great, as the Construction Program, which was begun in 1943, was practically completed at the beginning of this fiscal year. Turpentine operations during the fiscal year amounted to $5,980.04 and this represented a slight decrease of $1,323.78 over the previous fiscal year.
The Canning Plant, which operates in conjunction with the farm and the Institution, had a production figure this fiscal year of $41,765.00, as compared with last year's production

of $36,504.79. This unit prepared and canned 53,440 No. 10 Cans of as>orted vegetables, 10,281 gallons of assorted vegetables and 9,655 gallons of cane syrup. These products W>'re stored in the warehouse and will be used as needed during the coming year.
We are listing below a percntage comparison for the two fiscal years, which outlines the progress made in tlllable lands on the prison reservation.

It might be added that we operate a prison store at the Georgia State Prison and a smaller unit at the Georgia Juvenile Training Institute. The store at the Georgia State Prison has derived sufficient profit not only to purchase all necessary entertainment and athletic supplies, but this fund now shows a surplus of approximately $9,000.00 for further use. The store at the Georgia Juvenile Training Institute has been in operation only a short time but it will likewise develop into an undertaking which will eventually supply this unit with all of its athletic equipment and furnish entertainment and certain education facilities for the inmates. These funds furnish the prison population also with weekly showings of motion pictures and pays for magazine subscriptions and other reading matter recommended by those in charge of the units.
In conclusion we believe that we will be in a position to probably lower our operating cost next fiscal year, as we now have our building program completed at the Georgia State Prison and we have expended initial funds for the operation of the two prison branches and therefore under normal conditiom1 we hope to show a decrease of expenditures. We are planning an expanded farm program this year and if weather conditions permit, we should be in a position to lower operating costs by larger production on the farm.

COMMENTS: PRISON STORE ACCOUNT:

During the fiscal year ended June 30th, 1948, surplus funds from the Prison Store Account were transferred to the Athletic Account and the accumulation of transfers amounted to $12,000.00.
A profit from the operation of the prison store was approximately 25 o/o, which is evident from fig-
ures in the above report.

All profits from the prison store are used for the purchase of recreational and educational supplies for the prison population and for this reason expenditures of this type have never come from funds allocated for the operation of the prison. Weekly motion pictures are shown, books and magazines are purchased and all athletic equipment is paid for through the Athletic Account and this fund adequately provides what is required for a well rounded athletic program, the recreational requirements and suitable educational needs.
