GRAND JURY PRESENTMENTS
Summerville, Georgia,
Sept. 23, 1948
Hon. C. H. Porter,
Judge of Rome Judicial Circuit.
As citizens of Chattooga County we
have been named as members of the
Grand Jury for the September 1948 term
of Chattooga Superior Court, and on the
day of our convening we were informed
by Your Honor as to our duties as Grand
Jurors.
Acting upon the advice and instruc
tions given us by Your Honor, we have
within the short time granted to us in
vestigated each and every case brought
to our attention.
We fully believe that we have the
grandest government in the world, yet we
realize that there are defects which might
be corrected. We, as an investigating
body, are limited in time in reviewing
the affairs of our county and of our
Through our different committees we
have inspected the different branches of
our local government and attach our re
ports to these presentments, these reports
being a part of our presentments and our
recommendations.
Os the cares and responsibilities which
are ours, we have listed below some of the
items which are of greatest importance,
as follows:
FIRST —Those who are inmates of our
county home;
There are no inmates in the present
home who are there by choice. There is
an erroneous idea that every man who is
poor is responsible for his own misfor
tune. No man wills for himself and his
family, hospital bills, misfortune piled
upon misfortune, yet they are not the
■Masters of their own destiny.” Con
trary to the common views and accepta
tions of man.
SECOND —The education and protec
tion of the youth:
There is nothing born into this world
that is as helpless and as dependent as a
child. Until they are self-sustaining they
are dependent upon their parents for
food, raiment, shelter and education. We
believe that the environments of every
child should be as pure as it is possible,
for the child of today will be the citi
zen of the early tomorrow. Better than
we can express it, some one has said,
‘The child is but the hand of God re
cording on the pages of time the history
of the human race.”
THIRD —The safety of our public high
ways:
Not only within our own county, but
from reports of which we hear over the
radio and read in the newspapers, human
life has no consideration. We are no
longer shocked when prostrate forms are
brought to our hospitals and to our mor
gues as the victims of the reckless or

REPORTS.
In our reports of our different insti-
* tutions, we have been most fortunate in
- receiving the hearty co-operation of those
t from whom we have sought sufficient data
from which we might prepare our re
» ports;
i The report of the County School Super
t intendent is hereby attached, and in ad
r dition to the information contained
; therein he advises that the present school
• building program has been made pos
sible by the issuance and sale of bonds
j of our county totaling $260,000.00, bearing
f 3% interest and which were sold at a
- premium of 1%, or $2,600.00 in addition
> to the face of the bonds. In order to
■ make ourselves plain, these $260,000.00 of
bonds brought $262,000.00. These bonds
i are to be retired over a period of 20 years,
* retiring $13,000.00 of these bonds each
, year.
We have been favored with a report of
r the County Welfare Administrator, at
tached hereto as a part of our report.
t In addition to the report hereto at
-5 tached, we are advised by our Welfare Ad
-5 ministrator that she has served the num-

Attached hereto is the report of J. A.
Scoggins, Tax Collector of Chattooga
County, Georgia, showing the amount of
taxable property on the Tax Digest of the
> county to be $5,988,665.00. The Tax Auth
l orities of our state claims that any and all
> counties, whose tax digest is less than
■ $3,000,000.00 are not self-sustaining, hence,
i are a parasite on the body politic. We
■ ! beg to advise that our county is self-sus-
taining and pays in to the State Treas
ury more than we receive from the State.
Mr. F. A. Justice, Chairman of Board
of Roads and Revenues appeared before
our body and assured us that our recom
mendations would receive every considera
tion that it is possible to give them con
cerning the things pertaining to the
county over which the Board of Roads
and Revenue has any consideration. He
further stated that his board would at a
very early date provide toilets outside of
the court house for colored men and
white men.
Mr. Justice further stated that it is the
intention of the Board of Roads and
Revenue to build the proposed toilets out
of stone or brick and have them entirely
separate from the courthouse building.
We also had assurance from him that
the porch of jail residence will be
altered and repaired.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
We recommend that Mr. J. E. Baker bo
appointed Notary Public and ex-officio
Justice of Peace for Summerville District
No. 925 G. M. The term of Mr. A. E.
Strange having expired.
We recom/nend that the per diem pay
of the jurors and bailiffs for Chattooga
County for the year 1949 be $6.00 per day
the same as now paid.
It is indeed appalling the large number
of teen age boys, who have and are daily
acquiring a criminal record, who by the
press and by the courts are given the
title of ‘Juvenile Delinquents.” In order
to discourage juvenile delinquency, we rec
ommend that every incorporated town in
our county pass a CURFEW LAW, ifxing
the age of those subject to this law as
all children under 16 years of age, and
forbid them from being on the streets of
the incorporated town at later than 9:00
p.m. unless accompanied by their parents.
It is nard to distinguish between games
of amusements that are free from gam-
I bling features. In many instances carni
vals and small shows put on games where
probably a mild form of gambling is in
dulged. We recommend to the law en
forcement officers that a strict attention
be given to all shows, or amusements,
whereby any gambling may be carried on.
We recommend that the Clerk of this
! Grand Jury be paid $12.00 extra pay for
: assembling, preparing and typing these
1 presentments.
We recommend that The Summerville
: News publish these presentments in one
; issue of their paper and that the usual
1 fee be paid for same.
CONCLUSION:
Our present jail has been erected 50
years next year. It is of course out of
date and can not be kept as sanitary as
a new building could be kept.
Our present courthouse has been erected
40 years next spring. It is also impos
sible to properly heat this building and
also it is next to impossible to keep it
clean.
We appreciate every act of kindness
which has been shown us by the dif
ferent court officials and by the public.
We thank Your Honor for the able and j
inspiring charge delivered to this body on
the day of our convening.
We thank our able and conscientious
Solicitor General, Mr. E. J. Clower, for his
patience in dealing with us and also we
thank him for his advice which he has
given us at all times.
We thank our accommodating bailiff,
Mr. C. P. Hamilton, for granting our ev
ery wish.

CHATTOOGA COUNTY DEPARTMENT,
PUBLIC WELFARE
We, the Chattooga County Department
of Public Welfare, wish to submti this re
port iff our activities covering our fiscal
year. July 1. 1947, to June 30, 1948.
On July 1, 1947 we had thirty-four pend-
I ing applications for Old Age Assistance.
One hundred twenty-three were added to
i tms number during the year making a
I total of one hundred fifty-seven. Os these
i one hundred thirty-four were approved,
| nineteen rejected and four disposed of
for other r ..sons, bringing our number
of Old A'_,e recipients as of June 30, 1948,
up to iour hundred ninety-eight with
grants amounting to $11,794.00.
the beginning of the year, we did
not have any pending Blind applications.
One was taken and approved bringing our
Blind Recipients as of June 30, 1948 to 13
with grants amounting to $360.00.
As of July 1. 1947, there were pending
five A. D. C. cases including eight chil
dren. Thirty-four were added during the
year making a total of thirty-nine fami
lies with a total of one hundred fourteen
children. Os these, thirty-one families
with ninety children were approved, two
with seven children rejected and six with
seventeen children disposed of for other
reasons bringing our number of A. .D C.
recipients as of June 30, 1948 up to fifty
four with grants amounting to $2,072.50.
Five per cent of above grants are tak
en care of by the County, Forty-five per
cent by the State and Fifty per cent by
the Federal Government.
All cases are reviewed and eligibility
requirements re-established at least once
per year. Cases are closed when it found
they no longer meet eligibility require
ments.
Other programs which come under the
direct supervision of this Department are:
(1) Cripple Children s Program for the
purpose of equipping physically handi
capped children under 21 years of age.
We have referred seven children this
year.
(21 Child Welfare Program which offers
specialized service to children and
their families needing help. We have
had numerous occasions to offer help and
suggestions and have done as much of
this kind of work as we possibly could
find time to do. A great many counties
have a trained child welfare worker who
devotes her full time to this type of
work and we feel Chattooga County would
profit by one.
(3) Vocational Rehabilitation. The ob
jective of this Department is to rehabili
tate handicapped individuals. We have
made five referrals to this program dur
ing the past year.
(4) State Department of Health. This
program consists of cancer clinics,
j pneumo-thorex refills and X-rays for T.B.
We have referred seven to cancer clinics
and made investigations for the State for
numerous Pneumo-Thorex refills.
io) Admissions to and from State Insti
tutions. This Department makes inves
tigations and social histories for the
Georgia Training School for boys and
girls on all sent from this County. We
also fill m a questionnaire sent us from
Milledgeville State Hospital on every per
son committed from this County.
(6t O. T. I.’s This term refers to out
of town inquiries. This is an exchange
of information between agencies and in
terstate individuals. We have made fifty
eight investigations and reports this year.
I RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Chattooga County Welfare Board
wishes to make the following recommen
dations:
(1) That this Department have three
mills levied for it and be given the full
benefit of it. If there is any left over
■ from our Special Assistance Program, it
is badly needed to care for emergency
cases that do not come under the Special
Assistance Program.
(2) That the Chattooga County Welfare
| Department be given a permanent office.
The Federal Government will now pay
■ half of the rent, office equipment, heat
ing, janitor services, etc. All records are
| of a confidential nature and should not
: be exposed at any time. It also works a
I hardship on the personnel and their
clients to move whenever the County sees
I fit to use the office for other services.
: (3) That a child welfare worker be se-
I cured as soon as funds can be made
available, as there is certainly enough of
this kind of services requested and needed
’ for a full time worker.
| T4* That additional office equipment is
needed and should be bought.
' This Department is ambitious to go for-
I ; ward with a more complete and efficient
program. We know we have a great re
sponsibility, one in which every citizen
should be interested. We feel this can
I' only be obtained by a complete under
standing and co-operation between the
Welfare Board, Board of Commissioners
. and citizens of Chattooga County.
j In conclusion, we wish to express our
sincere thanks and appreciation to the
| Chattooga County Welfare Board members
. for their splendid services to their county.
I They do not receive any compensation for
their services to their county. We wish
to thank our County Commissioners for
: their sincere co-operation. We also wish
Ito express our appreciation of the new
Health Department which they have suc
ceeded in establishing. It is a Depart
ment we have seen a growing need for and
| will be glad to co-operate with in any
we can.
I To the newspapers of our county, we
wish to thank for their co-operation. All
I articles published for our Department
have been free of charge.
To the citizens of Chattooga County,
► we wish to express our gratitude for your

splendid co-operation and sympathetic un
derstanding.

Many a girl and •woman has found
the answer in Cardui’s 2-way help.
You see, Cardui may make things
lots easier for you in either of two
ways: (1) started 3 days before
“your time” and taken as directed *
on the label, it should help relieve
functional periodic pain; (2) taken
throughout the month like a tonic,
it should improve your appetite, aid
digestion, and thus help build up
resistance for the trying days to
come. Cardui is scientifically pre
