cent retained by the state treasury,
amounting to $588,911.55; 1-2 of 1
per cent goes to the Revenue De
partment for cost of collecting,
amounting to $98,151.92; one cent per
gallon allocated to the Board of Ed
ucation for the school equalization
fund, $3,157 ,220.30 ; 4 cents allocated
to the State Highway Department,
the state Legislature in 1933 re-allo
cated or designated approximately
one cent of this amount, or $2,668,
000.00, to be paid to the counties for
their certificates of road bonded in
debtedness. This amount deducted
from the $12,628,881.22 leaves in the
State Highway Department $9,962,-
881.22 for all purposes. Of this amount
the Highway Boaajd is paying to the
counties through the $1.00 per day
convict allotment system, approxi
mately $3,000,000 for drainage and
grading of roads in the system, in
order to make it possible for the coun
ties to provide for tfhe care of the
convicts of the state, which, if they
were not being provided for in this
manner at this time, because of the
financial situation of practically all
of the counties, they would have to
be turned over to the state govern
ment, thereby making it necessary for
the state itself to raise between $2,
000,000 and $3,000,000 to provide for
the care of these prisoners. After de
ducting this $3,000,000 paid the coun
ties for work, this leaves in the High
way Department for maintenance, re
pairs, reconstruction, administration,
and matching Federal money, a net
amount of $6,962,881.22, or slightly
more than 2 cents of the gasoline tax.
“The total allocation of gasoline
money the Highway Department re
ceives net after paying certificates of
bonded indebtedness, is $9,962,881.22,
which is approximately 50 per. cent
of the total gasoline money collected.
Of the total allocated funds coming
from all sources and going to the dif
ferent departments of the state, which
persons were killed and four others
injured. ,
MILLER CITES ROAD
ECONOMIES IN STATE
HIGHWAY CHAIRMAN REVIEWS
RECORD, LISTS TOTAL
OF EMPLOYEES. J
Chairman W. L. (Lint) Miller, for
the State Highway Board, this week
issued a statement showing ho'w econ
omies have been maintained in the
Highway Department.
His statement, which will be read
locally with much interest, followed
closely the action of Governor E. D.
Rivers in slashing the Highway De
partment budget about $2,000,000 and
in cutting about 300 employees from
the payroll in the department. In
some quarters, Chairman Miller’s
statement was regarded as an effect
ive answer to any claim of waste or
extravagance in the department.
The statement follows in full:
“We have had many requests to fur
nish information to the public from
our records relative to the employment
and fiscal situation of the Highway
Department, and because of the inter
est manifested in this we are glad to
furnish same.
“On January 2, 1937, when the
present Board came into office, there
was a total of 1 certified employees on
the payroll of the State Highway De
partment of 2,361. On March 1, 1939,
there was a total of certified listed
employees on the payroll of the State
Highway Department of 2,458; an in
crease of 97 over the time the pres
ent Board came into office. There has
been added considerable mileage to the
system buring the last two years,
which had to be placed under main
tenance, thereby making it necessary
for the slight increase in employment.
On March 1, 1939, work was being dis
tributed more generally over the
state than was the case at the begin
ning of 1937, which would ordinarily
require more employees.
“These 2,458 employees include all
day laborers, which make up a large
part of the total. There are only 20
employees in the Highway Department
other than the Board members, draw
ing as much as $300 per month sal
ary and above; and of these 20, 11 of
them are drawing exactly $300 per
month, leaving only 9 employees in the
Highway Department getting above
$300 per month. The general salary
schedule paid by the Georgia High
way Department will run from 5 to
10 per cent under the average salary
schedule of the following highway de
partments in the southeast, from
\vhich current reports are on file, in the
Board’s office: Florida, South Caro
lina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Ken
tucky, Alabama and Mississippi.
“The Legislators in 1937 created a
division of post and rural roads and
provided that a separate personnel be
set up for carrying on this additional
Work. Also, during the summer
months of 1937 there was set up un
der the supervision of the Highway
Department the Highway Planning
Survey, which is a Federal agency
and financed 80 per cent by the Fed
eral government. In both of these
new and separate divisions of work
under the Highway Board there is
an additional 361 employees, all of
which are on salary basis; there be
ing no maintenance or repair work in
these new divisions, therefore no day
laborers are on their payroll.
“With reference to economy in op
eration of the Department, We re
spectfully refer to the biennial re
ports made by the Highway Board to
the General Assembly from time to
time. By referring to these reports
you will note that the average cost
of administration of the Highway De
partment for the years 1937 and 1938
is lower than any previous year since
the organization of the Highway De
partment.
“The total tax collected on gaso
line for the year 1938, according to
information furnished us by the state
treasury, was $19,630,385.29, which
was distributed as follows: 3 per
NINE
is approximately $27,000,000, the
Highway Department receives ap
proximately 37 per cent. Of the total
revenue collected by the State of
Georgia from all sources, the High
way Department receives net ap
proximately 25 per cent of same.
“The information furnished herein
is taken from the records of the High
way Department. Your Highway
Board considers the records of the
Department public records and they
are available to any citizen of this
state at any time.”
