LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

OFFICE OF, THE
SECRETARY OF STATE
STATE OF FLORIDA

Tallahassee, Florida
January 1, 1945
Honorable Spessard L. Holland
Governor of Florida
Tallahassee, Florida
Dear Sir:
In compliance with the requirements of law I have the
honor to submit herewith my report of the transactions of this
office for the years 1943 and 1944. In addition to giving de-
tailed statements of all transactions of the office and a record
of commissions issued, I am also making some suggestions with
reference to needed legislation in the field in which this office
is particularly interested or with reference to laws that this
office administers.
As will be seen from the statement of monies received
which is published elsewhere in this report, the office collected
a total of $366,694.51 for the year 1943 and $413,085.16, for
the year 1944. Receipts from charter taxes held up well. The
corporation capital stock tax which has been in effect since
19:31 ran about the same as for the past several years. Fees
earned by the office for services rendered and turned into the
State Treasury were -up to the average for the past several
years being $19,066.32 for the year 1943 and $20,227.38 for
the year 1944. Receipts from the primary elections in 1944
were $16,849.20 which is in excess of the total appropriation
for holding primary elections so that the primary elections,
including the extra expense of soldier voting did not exceed
the receipts from the candidates filing fees.
There has been an increase in commission taxes over the past
two years. The receipts from this source in the year 1943
amounted to $19,345.00 and in the year 1944 amounted to $33,-

OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA

585.00. So on the whole the collections by the Office of Sec-
retary of State all of which go into the State Treasury reflect
a satisfactory condition.

ABSENTEE VOTING BY THOSE IN THE
MILITARY SERVICE
Administering the laws on absentee voting by those in the
military services has added much to the w9rk of this office.
The first Act of Congress providing for this type of absentee
voting became effective just a few weeks before our General
Election of 1942. Due to the shortness of time only about 1000
requests for ballots were received and about one half of these
were returned.
Our Florida Legislature of 1943 enacted a state law on
absentee voting by those in the military services drawn to dove-
tail and complement the then existing Federal law. The then
existing Federal law made provision for the states to be re-
imbursed for the necessary expense involved. However, after
our Legislature had adjourned other bills were introduced in
Congress providing for a different method of absentee voting,
one of these bills becoming a law before our Primaries of 1944
were held. This new Federal law made no provision for re-
imbursing the States for the expenses of administering the
State or Federal laws on the subject, except that the ballots
could be sent out free of postage.
In order to coordinate the Federal law with the State law
it was necessary to make many administrative rulings and to
secure the voluntary cooperation of certain County Officials.
The County Canvassing Board and especially the County Judges
as Chairman thereof, were very cooperative. Much additional
work and expense was placed on the office of the County Judges
just as was true in the additional work placed on the Office of
Secretary of State. These additional burdens were met cheer-
fully in every case and I was advised by Federal Offiicals the
record in Florida of handling absentee voting by those in the
military services was one of the best in the entire United States.
Though much publicity was given the interest apparently
was not as much in the primaries as in the General Election.
Requests for ballots in the primaries totalled 10,829.

REPORT OF SECRETARY OF STATE

In the General Election of 1944 over 40,000 requests for
state ballots were received from Florida men and women of
voting age in the military services. A ballot was sent out
from the office of the County Judge in each instance. 27,492
of these state ballots were voted and returned by the service
men and women from Florida. In addition 2787 Federal Short
from ballots were received and forwarded to the counties. Out
of this total of state and federal ballots received amounting to
over 30,000 ballots, only 850 were found defective or not meeting
the requirements of law.

If the Act of Congress on this subject remains in effect and
unchanged, which we can assume will be the case, then our state
law will need some slight amendments.

PRIMARY ELECTION LAWS

During the past biennium several problems have arisen and
some litigation has been instituted in the courts over the ad-
ministration and interpretation of our State Primary laws.
While the courts have upheld the interpretations of this office
there are still some problems needed to be ironed out in the
phraseology of our primary statutes in order to make their
intent clear.

There is a problem of absentee registration which I trust
will receive the careful consideration of the Legislature. There
are Florida citizens whose work requires them to be located
outside the State. For example, some three or four thousand
in the City of Washington, D. C. In order for these Florida
citizens to participate in our Primaries and General Election
most of them would be required to make a trip to the State
for the purpose of registering and another trip to the State
for the purpose of voting in the first and second Primary and
the General Election. This would mean four round trips to
Florida from Washington in order for those of our voting
citizens working there to have the full privilege of their voting
franchise. I certainly hope this problem can be worked out
and offer my services in that connection.

OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA

MEMBERSHIP ON BOARDS

The Secretary of State is ex officio member of a number of
administrative boards, constitutional and statutory. The work

on some of these boards is increasing every year. For example,
the Board of Commissioners of State Institutions, a constitu-
tional board, has many and varied responsibilities. These du-
ties are too numerous to attempt to catalogue them. Two are
mentioned as examples: the responsibility of the oversight and
direction of the Florida State Hospital for the Insane with
more than five thousand patients, and second the duty under
the direction of the Florida Statute of assisting in the liquida-
tion of the John Ringling Estate.
For the past two years the Secretary of State has been the
chairman of the Committee of the Board in each of the above
mentioned cases. These particular duties have consumed a
great deal of time but the accomplishments as will be shown
by the records is a source of satisfaction.
Of course no Cabinet member receives any additional com-
pensation because of his service on any of these Boards.

CUSTODIAN

Under the Constitution, the Secretary of State is not only
custodian of the Great Seal, but is custodian of the Capitol
Building and grounds. The Capitol building is in an acutely
over-crowded condition. The normal increase in the records
and files of the State from year to year makes an inexorable
demdhd for additional space. A south wing to the Capitol was
authorized by the Legislature of 1941 but conditions due to the
war has not permitted this work to be started. In addition to
keeping alive the original appropriation of $300,000.00 for the
above purpose, there should be a supplemental appropriation
for two reasons:

1. First the original appropriation was made when
when it was contemplated federal grants would be
obtained to assist. This is not now certain or even
as likely as was the case in 1941.

REPORT OF SECRETARY OF STATE

2. The cost of construction and materials has ma-
terially advanced.

So if a south wing to the Capitol is to be constructed that
will match the north wing and give additional space now so
acutely needed, there should be an additional appropriation for
that purpose.

A MODIFIED CIVIL SERVICE RECOMMENDED

For the past eight years I have recommended a modified
civil service law for state employees. In previous reports I
have stated that
"The highest efficiency cannot be reached and
maintained if the State employees labor under the
constant fear of losing their positions. This is par-
ticularly true in the clerical work. I still hold the
same view and am again making the same recommen-
dation. In recommending a civil service law for state
employees I do not have in mind one which would
take from the head of the department the necessary
authority of freeing the department of inefficient
help, but a reasonable "middle ground" as I have
before stated can be incorporated in a modified civil
service law or one that will give merit examinations
and reasonable assurance of tenure to employees so
long as they abide by regulations."

If a modified civil service law is not deemed wise by the
Chief Executive and the Legislature, then I would urge the
consideration of a retirement law that would hold out some
hope of social security after many years of service in case of
disability or inability to continue to serve by reason of illness
or age. State employees are not under present social security
laws, The federal government and most all businesses em-
ploying a large number of persons provides a retirement system
that offers some hope of ultimate retirement benefits. I be-
lieve such a law would tend toward greater efficiency of em-
ployees in the State service and I believe it to be a logical
policy for the State to adopt.

OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA

CENTRAL RECORDS DIVISION
I repeat my recommendations of two years ago, four years
ago and six years ago in which I then said
"It is recommended that the Legislature be request-
ed to enact suitable legislation providing a Central
Records Division for this office in which there would
be filed information from the various licensing boards
and professional examining boards and which these
boards would be required to file with this office.
Numerous requests are received for information of
this type and it is necessary for me to take up with
these various boards each item as the request comes
in. Other states have the Central Records Division
and find it advantageous for the public."

CAPITAL STOCK TAX LAW
This law was enacted in 1931 as one of the revenue meas-
ures intended to take the State out of the ad valorem tax field.
It has proven a satisfactory source of revenue bringing into
the general revenue fund a little more than a quarter of a
million dollars each year. It is so drawn that it is administered
at a minimum of expense and it is believed that it is one tax
which has not been the subject of complaints or criticism.
I recommend that the Legislature of 1945 reenact a "re-
vival" law for dissolved corporations the same as was done by
the Legislatures of 1939, 1941 and 1943.

CONCLUSION
The motto of this office continues to be "prompt, efficient
and courteous service." This office has fewer employees than
any other Cabinet office. These employees have continued to
be faithful, loyal and efficient and have not yielded to the
temptations of higher salaries that might have been obtained
elsewhere. Most of the employees of this office have been in
the state service for a number of years and the experience
thus gained is a valuable factor in the operation and administra-
tion of this office.

14 REPORT OF SECRETARY OF STATE

The kindly consideration and cooperation I have always
received from your Excellency has been appreciated arid it has
been a high privilege to serve as one of the "Cabinet" officers
in your administration.

Respectfully submitted,
R. A. GRAY,

Secretary of State
