LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

OFFICE OF THE
SECRETARY OF STATE
STATE OF FLORIDA
Tallahassee, Florida
January 1, 1953
Honorable Fuller Warren
Governor of Florida
Tallahassee, Florida
Dear Governor:
In compliance with the requirements of law I have the
honor to transmit herewith the biennial report for the office
of Secretary of State for the calendar years 1951-1952. Since
the report is for a two year period, it is necessarily a little
larger than an annual report would be. The volume of work
handled by this office is steadily increasing. The appropri-
ation requested and received for the biennium beginning July
1, 1951 was for the same amount as the appropriation granted
for the biennium beginning July 1, 1949. So, while the total
amount appropriated for the office has not been increased
for four years, the volume of work has quite materially in-
creased. For example for the year 1949 the collections were
$699,069.60 while the collections for 1952 were $1,027,455.61.

ELECTIONS DIVISION
This division of the office has the administration of the
Primary, special and general election laws. Beginning with
the preparation of various and sundry blanks and forms
to be sent out to the counties for the Supervisors of Regis-
tration, then the qualification of candidates in the primaries,
the handling of all reports from such candidates, supplying
numerous forms required by the new election laws, certify-
ing results of the first and second primaries, preparation of
forms of ballots, certifying nominees, handling all the gen-
eral election procedures, canvassing returns, qualifying those
elected to office and finally preparing commissions for them.

10 REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE

These are a few high spots that keep this division busy
through a two year cycle.
In 1951 the Legislature re-codified the entire election
laws. This codification included primaries, general and special
elections covering all the mechanics of administration. This
alone would have added materially to the work of this di-
vision during the two year period just passed, but the
Legislature of 1951 also enacted a new law referred to as
Senate Bill No. 8 which dealt with campaign contributions
and campaign expenditures of candidates for office. This
new law was so different from anything heretofore on the
statute books, and its requirements were so rigid the Secre-
tary of State foresaw the probabilities of a chaotic condition
unless information was thoroughly disseminated. So, by use
of bulletins and holding meetings in various parts of the
state which were well publicized, information on the new
requirements was given to the public, especially candidates.
The new law (Senate Bill No. 8) was on the whole obeyed
by the candidates and its administration on the state and
county level was handled without confusion. The law proved
generally to be satisfactory to the public and the candidates
apparently made an honest and sincere effort to comply with
its provisions. Additional personnel is needed in this de-
partment.
CORPORATION DIVISION
For several years the number of new corporations formed
in Florida has been far above the average of other states
with comparable population. Though Florida now ranks
twentieth in population in the list of states, we rank sixth
or seventh in the number of new corporations filed with this
office month by month and year by year. This is all the
more significant in that it is not a sporadic or temporary
situation but one that has been continuous now for five or
six years. While this adds to the volume of work required
in the office, it also increases the amount of revenue col-
lected both for services rendered by the office and for charter
tax and corporation capital stock tax. In 1949 the capital
stock tax collected was $443,503.86 while in 1952 the capital

OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA

stock tax collected was $595,402.87. Charter tax increased
during the same period from $157,000.00 plus to $243,000.00
plus.
In this division a very large volume of inquiry mail is
received. Carrying out the policy and custom of the office
of rendering prompt service becomes more and more a bur-
den on the corporation division. Our corporation laws on the
whole are satisfactory.
RECORDS DIVISION
The original function of the office of Secretary of State
and still one of great importance is the filing of the many
official documents and records required to be kept and
recorded by the office of Secretary of State. These are too
numerous to attempt cataloging. It varies from proclamations
by the Governor, court orders and commissions signed by
him, to the recording of voluminous agreements of railroads
for leasing railroad equipment. This function is perhaps men-
tioned less than any other function of the office but its im-
portance was recognized by the framers of the Constitution.
CUSTODIAN OF THE GREAT SEAL
Any Secretary of State who seriously analyzes the duties
and responsibilities of the office appreciates and realizes
that he has no more responsible duty than that placed upon
him as the Constitutional Custodian of the Great Seal. The
Great Seal is the symbol of the sovereignty of the State and
is the one device which authenticates official documents of
the highest import. That documents should bear the authen-
tication and receive the imprint of The Great Seal may seem
casual and routine, but a situation might arise at any time
where the use of the Great Seal would be of the greatest
significance and the highest importance. Its integrity must
be forever maintained.
LAWS DIVISION
The Secretary of State is custodian of all acts of the
Legislature. The increased volume of matters considered by
the Legislature and the laws enacted by that body is adding
continuously to the volume of work in this division. The

12 REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE

desire of the public for immediate information and copies
of the laws newly enacted imposes quite a tax on the clerical
force of the office. Here again may be mentioned the im-
portance of guarding and safe keeping the original authen-
ticated acts of the Legislature. These are kept in safe vaults
and are never permitted to be taken from the office.
MAINTENANCE DIVISION
Maintenance of the capitol and grounds also is growing
in the demands arising under such duty. Not only does the
capitol have additional wings built every few years, but the
business carried on in the Capitol offices must keep up with
the pace of modern business. The facilities required to meet
the demands and the tempo of modern business and modern
living means the constant addition of equipment and the
servicing of such.
The 1951 Legislature added another building to be main-
tained by the Secretary of State. This was known as the
Tallahassee Administration Building and has since been
designated the W. V. Knott Building. The maintaining of
this building involves the same type of duty as maintenance
of the capitol and grounds.
MISCELLANEOUS
A number of duties imposed upon the Secretary of State
by various and sundry statutes would probably not fall ac-
curately under any one of the above mentioned divisions.
However, many statutory duties involving such as trade
marks, limited partnerships, licensing of labor business agents,
etc., add to the variety and interest.
EX OFFICIO DUTIES
The Secretary of State is named by the Constitution as
a member of the Board of Commissioners of State Institu-
tions, the State Board of Education and the State Board of
Pardons. By statute he is a member of the State Board of
Conservation, the Executive Board of the State Safety De-
partment (Highway Patrol), Trustees of Teachers Retire-
ment System, State Board of Vocational Education, State
Textbook Purchasing Board, State Hotel and Restaurant

OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA

Commission, State Advertising Commission, State Budget
Commission, Civilian Defense Council and chairman of the
State Canvassing Board.
Being a member of the Board of Commissioners of State
Institutions in itself takes up a great deal of time of the
Secretary of State. The Board finds it necessary and ex-
pedient to have a committee of three members on each of
the several state institutions. The Secretary of State is chair-
man of the committee on the Florida State Hospital for the
mentally ill our largest state institution where there are pres-
ently some seven thousand patients.
CONCLUSION
While the duties of the Secretary of State are steadily
increasing, I am pleased to state the satisfaction of handling
this important office is one I have greatly appreciated. I am
very grateful to the people of Florida for having returned
me repeatedly to this office without opposition. I shall con-
tinue to do my best to render prompt, efficient and courteous
service in the office and to maintain the high tone and quality
of official service to which the people of this state are en-
titled. For myself and the entire personnel of the office we
express appreciation to your Excellency for the splendid
cooperation we have had from the Governor's office and also
we wish to express our gratitude for the many commenda-
tions, letters and messages received from all over the state
concerning the operation of this office.
Respectfully and cordially yours,

Secretary of State
