Introduction Guam continued to move ahead in most areas during the year although it experienced several disappointments and some major problems loom heavy on the horizon. Highlight of the year was President Lyndon B. Johnson's historic visit to the island in March for high-level talks on the war in Vietnam. Mr. Johnson was the first President to visit the territory and it became a center of world attention for several days. The President, visibly moved by the warm reception he received, left reassured that despite the thousands of miles separating the territory and the mainland, Guam is a strong and proud part of America. One of the year's most significant development was the sharp increase in construction in the private sector. Total number of building permits issued was 2,142 compared to 1,541 the previous year, and the estimated value of construction was $12,356,813, an increase of 38 percent over the previous year1s$9,279,233. The pace in the private sector compensated for a marked slump in government and military construction. Overall contract construction, lumping private and public together, declined from $42.2 million to $36.3 million, a drop of 13.9 percent. Gross receipts for the year again reached a new high with a total of $145.5 million. Total for the previous year was $136.3 million. This was an increase of 6.8 percent.

Tax collections also were at a record high. Three sources of revenue--income tax, business privilege tax, and licenses-accounted for approximately $17 million. This was an increase of about $3 million over the previous year. Overall government revenue came to $28.5 million. The previous year it was $20.8 million. Government expenditures totaled $26.7 million compared to the previous yeals $20.5 million. Taxes were increased considerably to meet the fast-rising cost of education. The Ninth Guam Legislature upped the gross receipts tax from 2 to 4 percent and also instituted a 4-percent use tax. It is estimated that along with other new tax measures this will boost government revenue by $3.5 million in the coming year. Other highlights of the year: --Guam moved a step closer toward increased autonomy when the U.S. Senate passed a bill to provide for an elective governor. The previous year, the House of Representatives passed an elective governor bill, but it was not acted upon by the Senate. Now, with both Houses having passed bills, it is expected that a compromise bill soon will clear the Congress. -Guam's two senior high schools, George Washington and John F. Kennedy, which lost accreditation in the wake of Typhoon Karen, regained it in the spring from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges. The accreditation was made retroactive to the start of the school year. The public school system now has some 18,000 V


students. Its total operating budget for the fiscal year was $11.5 million. -The College of Guam completed plans for reorganization in the fall jnto three schools-arts and sciences, education, and continuing education. The college also plans to open a graduate school in the fall offering a master of arts in education. The college had an enrollment of more than 4,000. It was appropriated almost $1 million for the fiscal year. -Guam's new International Air Terminal, partially financed under the Guam Rehabilitation Act, was opened in March. The long-awaited $1.6 million structure, which replaced an old quonset hut, handles 10 scheduled international Bights weekly, plus 14 to and from Trust Territory of the Pacific. In addition, construction started in December on a new commercial port, which is scheduled to be completed in 1970 at a total cost of $10.5 million. The port also is being built with funds obtained under the Rehabilitation Act. (FuU details on Guam's progress under the act are contained in the section of this report titled "Federal Grants and Aids.") -Pan American World Airways inaugurated twice-weekly direct flights between Tokyo and Guam as an adjunct to its service linking Guam with Honolulu and Manila. At least one other major air carrier is expected to be licensed to serve Guam upon completion of the Civil Aeronautic Board's Transpacific Route Case. -The Eighth Guam Legislature's action in voting down urban renewal was reversed by the Ninth Guam Legislature. The ninth legislature approved an urban renewal plan for the village of Sinajana and authorized planning and surveying for the village of Vona. The Department of Housing and Urban Development has reserved $9.9 million for urban renewal in Sinajana and $3.5 million for Vona. -The Government of Guam's longstanding freight rate dispute with V[

Pacific Far East Lines was settled out of court in January. Under the settlement, freight rates will remain frozen through 1968 at the level set 6 years ago, with additional selected decrease of up to 5 percent on essential items. In return the government agreed to drop all pending litigation and suspend port rate increases for the 2-year freeze period. It is estimated that the agreement will save the people of Guam about $500,000. -Guam's first comprehensive, islandwide master plan was approved, a turning point in the history of planning on Guam. The plan serves as a guide to zoning, subdivision control, and location of public facilities. -The Governor named a Commission on Deljnquency, Crime, and Law Enforcement to make a comprehensive study of crime and law enforcement problems on the island. An interim recommendation urging substantial pay increases for law officers was approved by the legislature and signed into law by the Governor. -Guam officiaUyjoined the British Commonwealth's South East Asia Cable System (SEACOM) in March, linking up with Singapore and Sydney. Guam already was a major landfall in the vast Trans Pacific Cable System, linked to the Philippines, Japan, and the mainland United States via Hawaii. Guam now shares with Hawaii the distinction of having the largest concentration of coaxia.l submarine cables in the world. -The Guam Economic Development Authority pushed ahead with programs to expand the territory's commerce. The agency loaned and promoted funds for a major motel expansion and a commercial air-taxi service. It also provided vitally needed funds for commercial fishing and agricultural projects. -A National Park Service survey team endorsed creation of a War in the Pacific Memorial Park on Guam. No substantial progress came on a second park service recommendation calling


Due mainly to heavy rains, market garden production showed a sharp decrease, dropping to 1.4 million pounds from the previous year's 1.8 million. This was a factor in the large increase in imports. Rabies was discovered in March in the dog population on the island, and On the debit side, Guam still ex- at the close of the fiscal year, 34 cases periences a severe housing sho;rtage of rabies, mainly in dogs and cats, had with no firm solution in sight, and it been confirmed. The Government's also is suffering from inadequate power control of efforts include vaccination and telephone systems. Generating clinics, a continuing program to elimifacilities on the island for the coming nate the large stray dog population, year will be hardly sufficient to meet and an embargo on the entry of all the load requirements.

The island's telephone but this is expected to be resolved as a exchanges are overloaded and another result of direct guarantees of loans for large capital outlay is required to bring hotel construction voted by the Ninth the system up to acceptable standards. Guam Legislature.

General Information Guam, the westernmost territory of the United States, has the proud slogan, "Where America's Day Begins." The island is located 3,300 miles west of Honolulu, beyond the international date line, and thus the calendar is a day ahead of the rest of the United States. Guam was discovered by Ferdinand Magellan on March 6, 1521, and remained under the Spanish Aag until it was ceded to the United States by the Treaty of Paris in 1898, following the Spanish-American War. The island was governed by the U.S. Navy until J950 except for the period during the Second World War when it was occupied by the Japanese. The Japanese invaded the island 'On December I0, 1941, just after the attack on Pearl Harbor, and the American liberation came on July 21, 1944. The date is celebrated as Guam's most important holiday-Liberation Day. Civil government was established in 1950 with the passage of Guam's Organic Act by the U.S. Congress. The local government consists of the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. The Governor and the Secretary ( equivalent to a lieutenant governor) arc appointed by the President. The incumbents arc Governor Manuel F. L. Guerrero and Secretary Denver Dickerson. The Governor's appointment is subject to the advice and consent of the U.S. Senate. Both terms are for 4 years.

President Johnson nominated Governor Guerrero for a second 4-year term when the President visited Guam in March for high-level talks on the war in Vietnam. The Governor's nomination was confim1ed by the Senate on May 3. The Governor also is serving his second term as a Commissioner of the United States on the South Pacific Commission. The Governor is the chief executive and administrator of the affairs of the Government of Guam. The functions of the various departments and agencies and related boards and commissions under him arc outlined in the main text of this repon. There is essentially just the one level of government, carrying out State, county, city, and village functions plus some Federal responsibilities. The legislature, a 21-member, unicameral house, is elected at large every 2 years. The speaker is Joaquin C. Arriola. Al present all seats arc held by the Democratic Party. The legislature is empowered to pass laws on local matters including taxation and appropriations for the fiscal operation of !he government. In addition there arc 19 district commissioners elected by the people of their respective villages every 4 years. Their p1imary job is to work with various government departments and al{cncics to promote the general welfare of the people. These activilics arc coordinated by a chief commissioner appointed by the Governor.


GW1JD,as America's westernmost outpost, has an acute awareness of the wa.r io Viet.aam. At the writing of this re_port 22 Guamanian servicemen had been killed in the coollicr. Governor Manuel Guerrero, extreme left, and Mrs. Guerrero, on the right, held a dinner nt Government House in June in honor of the parencs and wives of these men who laid down their lives in the defense of freedom.

The District Court of Guam is presided over by a judge appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate. The term is for 8 yc.,rs. The office is presently held by Paul D. Shriver. The District Court has jurisdiction in all cases arising under lhe laws of Guam. hs decisions may be appealed to higher courts in the United States. Guam remains an organized but unincorporated territory of the United States. Tts relationship with the U.S. Government comes under the general supervision of the Department of the Tnterior. Guamanians arc citizens of rhe United States but those who reside in Guam do not have the right to vote in national elections and also have no representation in the U.S. Congress. I lowever. under local legislation. Guam has an elected representative with an office in Washington, D.C., who serves a liaison and infonnalion function between the Guam Legisla2

Lure and the U.S. Congress. The office is presently held by A. B. Won Pat. Guam is the southernmost and most populous of the Western Pacific islands called the Marianas (the rest of the Marianas are part of the Trust Territory of the Pacific administered by the United States under a trusteeship agreement with the United Nations). IL lies 13° above the equator, with Japan some 1,500 miles to the north, the Philippines about 1,400 miles to the west. The island is 30 miles long and varies from about 4 to 8 miles in width for a total land area of 2 I 2 square miles. Il is twice the size of the Virgin Islands and one-fifth the size of Rhode Island. The northern half of the island is a high rolling plain marked by small hills and woodlands and embraced by steep cliffs that thrust up to 400 feet from the ocean. To the south most of the island is made up of dense jungled valleys and rough mountains. There


are a large number of reef-protected bays and beaches dotted around the island-especially along the southern shore. The climate is warm and humid. The temperature ranges from 70° to 90°. Tradcwinds cool the island during the dry season of December through April. May and June are the hottest months and most of the rain falls from July to September. In recent years the annual precipitation has ranged from about 75 inches to more than 150 inches. Despite its tropical setting, Guam is in many ways similar to any other small community in the United States, with typical facilities, services and institutions. The island's natural beauty and resources were badly hurt by the war and subsequent typhoons but a massive rehabilitation program started 3 years ago promises a better-than-ever Guam. The island serves both as a vital military bastion aiding in the battle for freedom in Vietnam and as the transportation and communications hub of the Western Pacific. It has a vigorous and growing business community and high hopes of becoming a tourist mecca. However, the economy is still mainly military oriented. The civilian population numbers about 50,000. There are also some 38,500 servicemen and dependents attached to the large bases maintained by the Navy and the Air Force. Agana, the capital, is located on the west side, at the middle or waist section of the island, and there arc some 20 districts or villages spread out around the rest of the island. Andersen Air Force Base, its B-52 bombers pressing the war against Vietnam, is located at the north end of the island, and the bulk of the Navy's

facilities, excepting mainly its air station and communications. are concentrated at the southern end at Apra Harbor. The present Guamanians are a mixture of native Chamorro stock with dominant outside strains. Everyone speaks English. Chamorro, the local dialect, is also widely used, especially in the villages. The local population is predominantly Roman Catholic. Social conditions a.re well advanced on Guam. The island has a modem school system, a 4-year college, a large hospital, and extensive public health and welfare facilities. Fishing, skin diving, golf and bowling are the main recreation. Cockfighting is legal and betting at the pits is spirited. Fauna includes wild deer, pigs, doves, and other birds, the fanihi (or fruit bat), coconut crabs, and a wide variety of fascinating reef fish. There are the usual tropical trees and plants, including bananas, coconuts, palms, poinciana (or flame tree), hibiscus and oleander. Banking facilities arc provided by the Bank of America, the Bank of Hawajj, and the Guam Savings & Loan Association. News media include the Guam Daily News, the Pacific Journal, and KUAM Radio-TV. Guam is a free port with bargains for all shoppers. There are good buys in radios, tape recorders, watches. jewelry, gems, carvings, fabrics, china, crystal, silverware, art objects and many other products. Visitors may take back $200 worth of goods duty free to the mainland United States. All American and most foreign liquors arc available at low prices as they enter duty f rcc and there is only a small local tax. Mainland visitors may ta.ke home 1 gallon of alcoholic beverages both duty and tax free.

gram. This training is considered to be of great value to high school students during their vacations. The Eighth Guam Legislature voted down urban renewal. The Ninth Guam Legislature reversed this, approving the urban renev;al plan for Sinajana. and authorizing planning and surveying for Yona. In approving these measures, legislators said they would give the people in the communities involved an opportunity to own decent and sanitary homes at the lowest possible cost. Urban renewal, in addition, creates more job opportunities for the local people, they stated. A Guam housing and urban renewal office has been established in the village of Sinajana. The next project will be the development of Yona. Short tUu

Bureau of the Budget Personnel: 6

The Bureau of the Budget, a staff office of the Governor, was established as a separate bure"'u, apart from management, by Executive order on December 30, 1966. The bureau's responsibilities include the formulation of budget policies and procedures, review and analysis of budget proposals, and implementation of adopted policies in the execution of the budget. The bureau periodically reviews the status of appropriations and controls the same through the allotment process. It also reviews and makes recommendations on all proposed appropriation measures as well as other proposed legislation having monetary implications. The bureau took steps during the year to adopt a Planning, Programing and Budgeting System ( PPBS) . The initial steps taken were to identify activities that are closely linked and to relate long-range plans with operational programs. These steps will be followed by efforts to assist department.s

Budget: $36,000

and agencies in more specifically identifying their objectives and to help establish the means whereby progress can be measured. The bureau continually reviews the financial status of the government and develops plans to insure that resources are adequate to meet governmental responsibilities. During the year, the bureau recommended enactment of tax measu.resdesigned to overcome anticipated deficiencies and to allow for implementation of new programs and expanded programs indicated in longrange plans of the government. Several tax measures were proposed and favorable legislative action resulted in the passage of tax legislation anticipated to yield more than $3 million in additional revenue. The operations budget approved during the year amounted to $21,101,610 in addition to capital improvements and other items amounting to $4,804,372 for a total of $25,905,982.


Bureau of Management Research Personnel: 7

The Bureau of Management Research, a staff office of the Governor, was established as a separate bureau, apart from budget, by Executive order on December 30, 1966. The bureau's responsibilities include the formulation and review of all matters relating to management practice, organization, policies, programs, and operations of the government. It also coordinates and assists in the implementalion of all approved recommendations submitted by independent auditing firms, the internal audit branch of the Department of Finance, and other auditing or management reports submitted by Federal agencies. During the year, the bureau initiated several reorganizaLion studies, including proposals for the consolidation of

Budget: S51,112

the Departments of Commerce, Land Management, and Agriculture into a new Department of Resource Development; abolishment of the Department of Labor and Personnel with the creation of a proposed Department of Labor; creation of a Civil Port Authority to consolidate the Commercial Port and the Air Terminal; and for the establishment of a Vocational Education and Technical Commission. In addition, the bureau initiated steps to mechanize certain operations of the government presently done man·ually. Studies are continually being made to determine project areas for mechanization to promote more eff eclive and economical government operations.

Department of Agriculture Personnel: 63

The Department of Agriculture is responsible for the promotion of farming, conservation, and plant and animal quarantine control. It has five divisions: Plant Industry, Animal Industry, Fish and Wildlife, Veterinary Service, and Cooperative Extension Service. Guam had 864 fuU- and part-time farmers this year compared with 736 the previous year. Despite strenuous efforts to increase market garden production, it fell far short of expectations, due mainly to heavy rains and a high rate of breakdown in fann machinery. Five hundred acres were put to cultivation compared to 600 the previous year. Total production of fruits and vegetables amounted to 1,435,214 pounds valued at $257,642. (Of this amount, 233,284 pounds, valued at $30,482, was sold to the military, a drop of about one-third.) Total production the previous year was 1,809,355 pounds valued at $357,537. The drop in production was a factor in the increase of imports. They climbed from 8,302,180 pounds valued at $828,100 to I0,558,109 pounds valued at $1,260,813. Plant fodustry Divisioti The division imported 30,000 pineapple slips from Hawaii to boost production on Guam. (Two thousand 34

Appropriation: S410,516

were sent to the Trust Territory.) Eight varieties of tomatoes and four varieties of sweet potatoes also were brought in from Hawaii for testing and introduction. In addition a number of experiments were carried out in fertilization and plant spacing. In crop pest control, the division was successful in the release and propagation of the opius fletecheri, a predator of the melon fly, with good results. Two species of insect, the uroplata girardi and hypena strigala, were introduced to feed on lantana plants, one of the most noxious weeds on the island. Results are still being evaluated. A survey was started to determine if there is any other species of the Anopheles mosquito present in Guam other than Anopheles srtbpictus indifinitus. To date no other species has been found. Animal lndt1,S#ryDivision Livestock population at the close of the fiscal year included about 7,000 hogs, 6,500 cattle, 1,000 goats, 655 carabao, and 88 horses. Swine development picked up at the fatcst rate. Commercial egg production registered a new high of 80,000 dozen eggs per month compared to last year's average monthly rate of 60,000 dozen. The number of layers increased from -+4,560to 60,325.


Fi-sh and Wildlife

Dwision

This division is responsible for the research and development and proper management of the island's fish and wildlife resources. Guam began participation in the Federal Aid to Commercial Fisheries Research and Development Program during the fiscal year with the purchase of IIawaiian-type sampan, fishing equipment, and the recruitment of an experienced fishing captain. Exploratory fishing for dccpwater fish such as snappers and groupers, night light fishing for mackerel, and tuna fishing by the live-bait method commenced in January. The project's objective is to determjne the commercial importance of the various species of fish that can be caught in the vicinjty of Guam. Early indications are that several species of snappers, jacks, and mackerel arc available in commercial quantities that can be readily sold in the local fresh fish market. The Fish and Wildlife Division is working in close cooperation with the Guam Economic Development Authority to promote a viitble fishing industry on the island. (Details are in the annual report of the Guam Economic Development Authority.) An estimated 248,000 pounds of fish were harvested frorn Guam waters during the fiscal year. Good runs of seasonal fish such as the mackerel and rabbitfish produced an estimated 61,000 pounds and 22,000 pounds respectively. Deep sea trolling by small sport fishing boats accounted for 114.000 pounds and reef fishing by a combination sport-subsistence fishermen produced approximately 51,000 pounds of miscellaneous reef fish. pproximatcly 1,700 fingerling channel catfish werc> imported from Montana and released into the 175acrc Fcna Reservoir to determine the

possibility of developing thjs species as a game fish in the fresh water habitats of the island. The largemouth and smallmouth bass previously released have shown excellent growth but to date no evidence of local reproduction have been observed. The collection and identification of the various species of fish found in Guam waters has progressed LO the stage where we now have recorded 491 species comprised of 81 families. Wildllie research and development work was continued in order to accumulate more life rustory data of wildlife species such as deer, fruit bat, doves, feral pigs, and rail. Two deer and fruit bat hunting seasons, one bird season, and a yearlong feral pig hunting season were conducted during the past fiscal year. A total of 470 hunting licenses was sold. The legal hunting kills are as follows: 73 deer, 40 fruit bats, 140 wild pigs, and an estimated 350 doves. The most popular hunting area was Northwest Field. Red-winged and spotted tinamous were imported from Argentina through the cooperation of the Foreign Game Introduction Program. These birds were brought into Guam in an effort to enhance the island's wildlife resource. Palau pigeons will also be introduced shortly.

Veterinary Ser-vice This division provided veterinary service for any government agency requiring it and also provided free service for the food-producing animals of the farmers of Guam. It made a total of 216 farm visits. The division also assisted in the Guam's anti rabies vaccination program and assisted in the control of an outbreak of cattle disease ( Piroplasmosis}

or, the island of Tinian in the Trust Territory.

Cooper11JweExtension Ser-vice This division provides an out-ofschool system of education in which both adults and young people learn by doing. During the fiscal year it made a total of 1,784 fann and home visits and conducted 62 4-H Club meetings, 40 district meetings, and 24 cooperative meetings. The staff also attended 50 various conferences, held 30 guided tours for school children, and conducted more than 200 market surveys. During the year the division's direct supeivision of the Guam Farmers Cooperative Association was taken

36

over by private management. However the division continued to provide technical assistance. The volume of fresh produce handled by the cooperative increased from last year's 274,549 pounds valued at $43,375 to 440,219 pounds valued at $64,792. In the latter part of the year the cooperative signed a contract to provide the military with more than I00,000 pounds of fresh produce.

being implemented. Two specific surveys are in process, one involving a census of private and government employment, the other a study of consumer expenditures. It is hoped the latter will provide meaningful cost of living data for the territory. The division handles queries from firms and individuals concerning business activity on Guam. Its regular publications include the Quarterly Review of Business, "Facts About Doing Business on Guam," and an annual Business Directory.

Industrial Dwelopmem The division concentrated this year on establishing a standardized system of gathering and reporting statistics in accordance with methods used by Federal agencies. Modern keypunch machinery was installed for use with a computer. Statistics now on file are being recorded on punchcards and this will be done as far as possible with aU statistics gathered in the future. It is anticipated that by the end of fiscal year 1968 there will be a standardized system of reporting, storing, and retrieving the most essential economic and statistical data required for any relevant inquiry. The Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics provided a consultant to assist in developing a regular program of labor force, wage, and consumer price studies. He submitted three reports now 40

Tourist Division There were several important developments in tourism during the year. Pan American Airways inaugurated twice-weekly direct Bights between Tokyo and Guam. American Express, the world's largest travel organization, established an office on the island. P & 0 Orient Lines announced plans to boost its cruise ship calls from one to two annually. These developments came after extended efforts by the division which has stepped up its advertising in various media to take advantage of the increased visitor potential-especially from Japan. There also was an important breakthrough in efforts to promote the island as a movie location site. The Shochiku Film Co. of Japan shot a major portion of a feature fiJm on the island with


assistance from the department. Officials of a second Japanese film company looked over the island as a possible location. Meanwhile the hole) situation on the island continued to improve wilh 50 additional rooms constructed. Financial problems held up construction of a proposed major resort hotel but this is expected to be resolved shortly. Afr Terminal

Commercial Port Personnel: 977 (Permane.nt, 78; casual, 899)

The Commercial Port is a nonprofit, sci.f-supporting agency of the government, handling all commercial harbor operations. The port presently uses U.S. naval station property on a 90day revocable permit under a joint Navy-Interior Department agreement of 1950. It is adjacent to Navy berthing areas in the southeastern part of Apra Harbor. There is room to berth four cargo vessels. Overflow is taken by the ravy. Construction started in December on a new Commercial Port to be located on Cabras Island adjacent to the U.S. Coast Guard depot on property obtained from the Navy. It is expected to be completed in 1970 at a total cost of $10,500,000. Funds were obtained under the Guam Rehabilitation Act passed by Congress after Typhoon Karen. D. R. Kincaid, Inc., of Honolulu, has a $3,488,423 contract for the first inct'emc.nt. This includes installation of

wharves and a fender system, dredging to provide proper depth for ships, and filling in of submerged land behind the wharves. The new site will provide more than one-hat f mile of wharf space, large warehouse and open storage areas, and cold storage facilities. An adjacent area has been set aside for an industrial park.

Port ChtZrges Commercial vessels berthed at the Commercial Port are charged dockage fees similar to those of the Navy. Tug and pilot services are presently available only through the Navy. The use of harbor pilots is not mandatory except when the tugs are desired. Charges for each tug approximate $125 per hour or fraction thereof, and the pilot fee is approximately $8.50 per hour during normal working hours plus 30-percent surcharge. Stevedoring H&ndlloa

Department of Finance Personae!: 177

Tbe Department of Finance is charged with the management of government revenues and the administration of regulatory measures relative to ta.xes, licenses, insurance, securities, procurement and akoholic beverage control. The·re are seven divisions: the Office of the Director, Revenue and Taxation, Accounts, Inspection, Treasury, Real Property Tax, and Procurement and Supply. The department was reorganized during the year. A Real Property Tax Division was established and Licenses and Registration was made a branch of the Division of Revenue and Taxation. The department also recruited a top-level administrator for the Revenue and taxation division. The Director of Finance headed a tax study committee that made a study of possible new tax sources. One of the committee's proposals was approved by the legislature. This was the use tax law. The legislature also enacted a law increasing the gross receipts tax from 2 to 4 percent. This was a substitute for the committee's retail sales tax proposal. The 4-pcrcent gross receipts ta.x law was put in to effect immediately upon approval of the Governor. The 4-percent use tax became effective July 1, 1967. The following tax rate increases also became effective in May 1967: 52

Appropriation: $968,339

I. Alcoholic beverage. Malted fermented-I½ to 2 cents per 12 fluid ounces. Distilled-$6 to $9 per gallon. Vinous-$1.50 to $2.25 per gallon. 2. Cigarettes-15 to 30 cents per 100. 3. Licenses-Banks $150 to $500 annually. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals rendered a decision during the year that will have an adverse effect on revenue from corporate income taxes. The court held that a U.S. corporation doing business in Guam could not be held liable for taxes in Guam as a foreign corporation but only as a domestic corporation. In no instance will the combined ta.x liability for Guam and the United States be in excess of the U.S. income tax liability if the income of such corporation is reportable to the United States only. The U.S. Supreme Court refused to review the case. Tax collections were at a record high. Three sources of revenue-in~ome tax, business privilege tax, and licenses-accounted for approximately $17 milJion of the government's overall revenues. This was an increase of more than $3 million over the previous year's total. Despite the substantial collection record, the receivables inventory remained high, mainly because of the concentration of collection efforts on


trust accounts. With an increased staff, and the establishment of a much firmer collection policy, the next fiscal year should reAect a considerable reduction in the overall inventory. In employee development, five revenue officers received extensive training at U.S. internal revenue training centers on the mainland, and a basic internal revenue agent course was conducted by one of our own officers for nine agents. Forty of the clerical staff took a course in remedial English under the auspices of the College of Guam. Other employees are enrolled in correspondence programs in accounting courses and related subjects. The department entered into an agreement with an appraisal firm to conduct the triennial evaluation of all real properties in Guam as required by statute. The appraisal was completed during the fiscal year. A total of 22,049 real property units ( land and buildings) were appraised and entered into the 1966 assessment roll with assessed Government

of Guam-General

values totaling $34,112,610. The board of equalization certified in the 1966 roll tax assessments totaling $1,023,378.30. By the close of the fiscal year, $821,808.50 had been realized in collections. The number of protests or appeals made against the appraiser's valuations in the 1966 roll hit a reord high. There were 684 protests filed and 580 valuations were adjusted resulting in a net decrease of $40,860 in the overall tax assessment. The board also made upward adjustments in cases involving 200 assessments. One of the conditions to the appraisal contract was the training of the department's enumerators and appraisers to become more proficient in the appraisal phase of their work. Most of the technical employees of the Real Property Tax Division participated in this training. Another condition of the contract called for revision of the existing real estate manual. The appraiser provided an entirely new manual.

Guam Economic Development Authority Pe.rsonnel:10

The Guam Economic Development Authority is under the direction of a board of directors composed of seven members, six appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of the legislature, and the seventh the Secretary of Guam, who is ipso facto chairman of the board. The day-to-day operations oI the authority and the administration of its program and policies arc under the direction of an administrator.

Financial Assistance Program During the fiscal year detailed forms and procedures for analyzing and presenting financial data relative to both applications for qualifying certificates for tax rebates and financial assistance were designed and installed. The authority worked closely in this with local lending institutions and the Guam office of the Small Business Administration. Because of the limitation of capital funds available for financial assistance, it has been necessary for the authority to attempt to "package" a majority of such requests, with local lending institutions and the Small Business Administration as participants. On this basis, after many months of negotiation, a $245,000 loan to Guamerica,

Appropriation: S600,000

Inc., for a SO-percent expansion of motel facilities was successfully concluded late in June 1966. Of the total amount, the authority will provide $100,000, with the Bank of America and the Small Business Administration carh providing $72,500. A similar financing plan is in process of final review and approval with reference to the construction of Guam's first modern slaughterhouse and meat processing facility. This program will involve the Bank of Hawaii and the Small Business Administration. The total financing required is $220,000. The authority will supply up to $85,000. During the fiscal year the authority also advanced $48.000 to Micronesian Airlines, Inc., a certified commercial air-taxi and charter scrvire, believed to be essential for the orderly development of tourism in the territory. The authority also provided vitally needed funds for commercial fishing and agricultural projects. A summary listing the status of all formal requests for financial assistance is attached as exhibit A.

Industrial Parks Of three planned industrial park sites, two already have been placed under the control of the authority 57


through long-term leases with the Government of Guam. These are the Tamuning Commercial-Industrial Park (23 acres) and the Harmon Industrial Park (approximately 15.7 acres). The third industrial park, to be located at the old Coast Guard site in the port area (32 acres), is currently in process of being transferred to the Government of Guam. after which it will be placed under control of the authority through a long-term lease. Twenty old quonset huts were removed from the Tamuning Commercial-Industrial Park and the balance are scheduled for removal shortly. Negotiations with the Economic Development Administration culminated in June 1966, with the receipt of a $38,500 grant to the authority to assist in site development of a portion of the Tamuning Commercial-Industrial Park. The authority is required to match these funds and has budgeted $50,000 for the project. The work ~s scheduled for completion in February of 1968. Inquiries from interested lessees desiring to negotiate long-term leases for sites located in the industrial parks contemplate such activities as a refinery, a branch bank, a ship repair facility, a commercial feed mill, a liquified petroleum gas facility, a fish cannery, and bonded warehouses.

Commercial Fishing The authority, recognizing the need for developing basic industry, devoted a great deal of effort to a study of ways in which commercial fishing could be stimulated. Two commercial fishing projects were due to start at the close of the fiscal year. One involves a joint project between private interests in Okina,va and Guam organizing a company to engage in lobster and reef fishing in and around Guam. The authority is financially 58

supporting the Guam entrepreneurs involved up to $30,000 and bas participated in all of the negotiations both on Guam and in Okinawa. Actual fishing operations will be performed by 20 Okinawans who have been cleared for this purpose by Lhc U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Services. The other fishing project involves a joint venture with Lhe Taiwan Ocean Fishery Development Administration. A 350-ton Taiwanese lUna clipper with 35 crewmembers is to carry out a 90day exploratory tuna fishing program. It is believed this program will indicate the economic feasibility for tuna fishing in and around Guam and the eventual practicality or a tuna fish cannery on Guam. The project is being jointly financed by the authority and the Taiwan Ocean Fishery Development Administration. Principal tuna fish canning companies in the United States have been advised of the project and invited to participate in the survey.

Agriculture In an effort to stimulate agriculture, the authority formulated legislation to create an agricultural development fund, to be established originally on the basis of a $100,000 revolving fund. The purpose is to stimulate agriculture through offering financial assistan'ce to qualified farmers. The program contemplates joint administration with the Guam Department of Agriculture. An interim fund of $25,000 to process the more urgent and deserving applications has already been committed and other applications totaling in c.xcessof $100,000 arc pending enactment of the lcgislaLion.

Management Assistance The authority was called upon to assist local business enterprises, both

existing and proposed, in a variety of ways including assistance in financial analyses and forecasts. organizing and planning new ventures, reorganizing and managing existing operations, etc. ).1ost of this work can be classified as being in the area of managemenl consulting. It has been the policy of the authority to perform such services only when they arc not readily available in the private sector.

Industrial Development Corporation The authority has proposed enabling legislation that would permit the formation of an industrial development corporation to function both as a State development corporation and a local development corporation with reference to funding possible under the Small Business Administration procedures. The proposed legislation has been approved by the Small Business

Administration and is expected to be acted upon by the 1inth Guam Legislature. Such legislation would make it possible for a privately organized industrial development corporation, composed of authorized lending institutions and other interested equity participants, to function on a more liberal basis with reference to Small Business Administration funcling. Preliminary approval has been received from the major lending institutions serving Guam. The authority is recognized by the Small Business Administration as an approved lending institution and could, thus, become a member, as well as an equity participant, in the proposed industrial development corporation.

A consumer preference study for a product known at WURLD Wheat is

59


scheduled to commence at the start of fiscal year 1968. This special wheat product was developed as a result of research by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It is hoped iL may prove to be a supplement and/or a substitute in certain instances for rice. The project is jointly sponsored by the authority and a large private company. If the results warrant further development it could lead to the establishment of a pilot plant on Guam. Mainland. Office

Early in the fiscal ye.ar a mainland office in San Francisco was activated under the adminisLrative direction of fonner Governor Carlton E. Skinner. The facilities and services of this office, although financed by the authority, have been made available to all Gov. crnment of Guam agencies, and the value of the office has been demonstrated many times. The mainland office is kept informed of all negotiations, correspondence, discussions, etc., with various mainland-based entities, both private and governmental. In several instances, this has eliminated the necessity for travel and resulted in more acceptable and rapid settlement of ne~otiations.

Trust Te"itor-y The authority is continuing to attempt to establish a firm basis for coordination and cooperation in the field of economic development with the Trust Territory. Discussions arc continuing and it is hoped that some definitive program will be possible in the near future. Feasibility Studies

The authority is seeking some $30,000 in additional operating budgeL 60

funds to prepare a series of detailed feasibility studies that can be made available to specific industries for consideration and evaluation with reference to establishing operations on Guam. Among the feasibility studies proposed arc the following: Small commercial dairy, textile plant, microscope and instrument assembly, public transportation system, electronics as• scmbly, cattle feed lots, sport fishing, tennis shoe manufacturing, perfume processing, chemical processing, refinery, fishing rod and reel manufacture, broiler growing and processing, fish cannery, and specialized agricultural products, such as citrus, cassavas, avocados, mangoes. QUillifying Certificates

Attempts of the authority to attract light industry to Guam, such as watch manufacturing, bracelet manufacturing, photographic equipment, etc., were adversely affected by the imposition of quotas on watch manuf acturing and substantial reductions in tariffs. The imposition of quotas on watch production resulted in a 58 percent reduction from peak employment in the industry in December 1966, of 249 to a level of 103 in June 1967. Reductions in tariff rates also have had a definite impact on prospective investors in that the advantages of headnote 3A have been substantially diluted. This further emphasizes the authority's need for a continuing program of income tax exemptions and a readily available source of substantial long-tenn capital. Since inception of the authority in August 1965, and through June 30, 1967, 40 applications for qualifying certificates have been reviewed and processed in varying degrees. A re-


capitulation of the status of these is as follows:

Guam Employment Service Personnel: 8

The Guam Employment Service is affiliated with the U.S. Employment Service and is federally funded both as to its operating budget (above) and the cost of its various training programs. The employment service handled a total of 2,217 job applications during the fiscal year ( compared to 2,40 I the previous year) plus 2,096 (compared to 1,271) applications for positions with the Government of Guam. Placements for the fiscal year totalled 1,607 compared to the previous year's 811. Most of the increase may be attributed to vacationjng students placed in temporary employment for the summer months. There were 8,861 openings listed with the service compared to the previous year's 8,010. Of the total, 6,723

Federal Budget: S58,460

were clearances on petitions submitted by employers for temporary alien workers to fill skilled or technical positions, with private finns asking for 4,700, the Federal Government requesting 1,991, and the local government seeking 32. The employment service has the responsibility of screening these petitions, considered to be local job orders, to ascertain whether the needs can be supplied locally by avrulable and qualified citizens. Three training projects were completed during the fiscal year under the Manpower Development and Training Act in cooperation with Guam's Department of Education. Classes were held for stenographers, welders, and bricklayer-masons. Of the 75 trainees, 59 graduated, and, by the end of the fiscal year, 38 had been placed.


Guam Memorial Hospital Personnel: 396

Guam Memorial Hospital is governed by a seven-member board of trustees appointed by the Governor with the consent of the legislature. The hospital administrator is responsible to the board. He is appointed by the board with the approval of the Governor. The fiscal year started with the inLroduction on July 1 of Federal medicare benefits from Health, Education, and WeUare for all patients in Guam Memorial Hospital over 65 years of age. Guam Memorial Hospital had the honor and distinction of having the first patient on the medicare program in the United States because of its position west of the international dateline. The medicare benefits have proven a great financial blessing to the elderly patients of Guam. Many major improvements were made in the physical plant of the hospital during the year. The administration offices, the business office, the admitting office and main lobby, the medical records library, the medical laboratory, and the employees dining room were remodeled. A new pathologist office, medical staff lounge, and medical staff library were built, the latter being stocked with books and periodicals. Most of these new and remodeled sections now have air conditioning. Other new constructions with air conditioning included a large isolation delivery room suite in the

Appropriation: $2,806,287.00

obstetrical department and a new interdenominational patients chapel. An accelerated collection process was initiated for the collection of delinquent patients accounts. The Guam Bar Association entered into a contract to act as the collection agent for the hospital. Building plans were submitted to Health, Education, and Welfare for Federal assistance on the new tuberculosis facilities. When this project materializes the present tuberculosis wing will be remodeled to accommodate approximately 80 beds for longterm care patients.

Admitiistratioti The business office controls all business activities and prepares annual budget requests. Service rendered during the fiscal year amounted to Sl,787,088.22. an increase of $255,914.22 over Lhe previous year. A total of $969,0+1. 72 was collected in accounts receivable, an increase of $244,859.72 over the previous year. Credits on abatements totaled $427,585.11, a decrease of $35,718.89 over lhe previous year. Accounts turned over to the Guam Bar Association for collections amounted to $449,287.26. The personnel and timekeeping unit processed 652 personnel actions, which included 161 appointments, 324 re67


classifications and promotions, I 31 separations, and 36 other miscellaneous personnel actions.

Social Service The Social Service Office investigates cases in which patients are unable to pay their hospital accounts, but arc otherwise not eligible to receive welfare benefits, and also assists in the neuropsychiatric service. During the year, 225 cases were presented to the Social Service Board, which approved abatement of accounts amounting to $125,782, a decrease of 170 cases but an increase in dollar value by $9,331.00 over the previous year. In the neuropsychiatric service, 253 patients were seen, evaluated and treated. Medical Staff

Contract physicians on the medical staff at the close of the fiscal year induded four general practitioners, two pediatricians, two internists, one pathologist, one radiologist, one surgeon, and one obstetrician-gynecologist. All but the general practitioners were American Board Certified or eligible. One anesthesiologist, one urologist, one thoracic surgeon and two general practitioners were under recruitment. Noncontract physicians who had staff privileges to practice in Guam Memorial Hospital included six general practitioners, two general sur~eons, two dentists, an anesthesiologist, a thoracic surgeon, a pediatrician, an ophthalmologist, a neurologist, and a neuropsychiatrist. Most were American Board Certified apart from the general practitioners and the dentists. Consultation services from physicians at the U.S. naval hospital are available to the Guam Memorial Hospital. 68

Nursittg Service

The MedicaJ Records Department is responsible for developing a system of records for the analysis, study, and evaluation of the quality of medical care rendered. This department is supervised by a registered record librarian. During the fiscal year, a Nyematic dictation system was installed, enabling the physicians at the hospital to dictate all surgery reports, history and physicals, X-ray reports, pathology reports and many others. There are 30 dictating stations throughout chc hospital with three medical transcribers completing the dictation. This has been a great asset to the hospital in better patient care. A data processing system for collecting medical statistics was inaugurated in October. This has given the hospital far more statistics and more accurate statistics than the old manner of handposting.

Guam Housing Corporation Personnel: 6

The Guam Housing Corporation was established to promote and finance low-cost housing. It is governed by a board of directors of seven members composed of the Secretary of Guam, the Director of Finance, the Attorney General, and four experienced businessmen appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of the legislature. The housing corporation operates on a revolving fund of $2,520,000 appropriated by the legislature from which all corporate obligations and e.xpenditures are incurred and paid. Interest on loans is the corporation's main source of revenue. Other revenues are derived from miscellaneous sources such as application and commitment fees and interest on bank deposjts. All housing loans bear interest at a rate not exceeding 6 percent annually. During the fiscal year, the corporation reccived 41 loan applications, of which 26 were approved totaling $323,725. By comparison, 43 loans were authorized in the amount of $543,885 in fiscal year 1966. Disbursements during the year on loans approved in fiscal years 1967 and 1966, plus other loans disbursements, totaled $273,895.50. The amounts of $358,450.54 in principal repayments and $159,234.22 in interest were received during the period.

74

OperatiJlg Budget: S61,380.00

As of June 30, 1967, the balance of loans authorized but not disbursed was $128,737.50. The corporation paid on a reimbursable basis $4 575.59 for insurance premiums covering properties mortgaged to the Guam Housing Corporation as loan collaterals. Balance outstanding as of the start of fiscal year 1966 was $930.20. Amount collected for repayment of insurance was $4,487.30. There arc 15 low-cost housing loan applications totaling $277,000 awaiting availability of funds. In addition, 63 others, totaling an estimated $799,250, are under various stages of processing. The corporation has been unsuccessful in several bids to obtain additional funds for housing loans from the legislature. Funds were not available due to other requests ronsidered more urgent. As an alternative, the corporation has explored other sources of financial assistance from Federal agencies. Section 221 ( d) 3 of the National Housing Act is being explored as a prospective source. Public Law 9-63, enacted on May 5, 1967, repealed in its entirety Publjc Law8-81 which empowered the Guam Housing Corporation to gu,arantee payment of loans for hotel construction.


Department of Labor and Personnel Personnel: 31

The Department of Labor and Personnel is charged with the implementation and administration of personnel rules and regulations within the government and all labor laws and regulations of the territory. The department recruits personnel for most of the government's departments and agencies and also provides a central service with respect to their other personnel needs. In the public sector, the department is concerned with reducing unemployment, promoting apprenticeship and job training, improving working conditions and pay standards, and seeking employment preference for local available workers over alien and other off-island labor. The Guam labor n1arket is still experiencing a persistent shortage of competent local labor to meet the demand for skilled workers. There is a continuing need for recruitment of off-island labor to fill these occupations. Replacement efforts in private industries and the Federal agencies are reported separately by the Guam Employment Service, an affiliate of the U.S. Employment Service, U.S. Department of Labor.

Of this, $649,202.51 was expended for personnel transportation, $221,306.93 for shipment of personal and household effects and cars, and $45,745.49 for per diem and other sundry items.

Workmen's Compenslllion Commission The Guam Workmen's Compensation Law applies to some 190 employers in the territory including the Government of Guam. A supplemental appropriation bill to the workmen's compensation fund was passed by the legislature and this enabled the commission to achieve lump-sum settlement in the case of Patrolman John Mafnas Santos, who was slain while on duty, July 22, 1966. His widow and minor children received death benefits totaling $18,675.27. 76

A lump sum death benefit was paid to the widow and minor children of Carmelo C. San Nicolas, a stevedore from Agat, who was fataJly injured at work on December 17, 1966. The other nonappropriated agencies named in the directive experienced no accidental injury during the year and had no expense of this nature.

Department of Land Management Personnel: 65

The Department of Land Management is charged with the administration, use and disposition of all government land within the territory. It provides staff_assistance to the Territorial Planning Commission, the Land Transfer Board, and the Parks and Monuments Committee. The department approves land surveys, enforces zoning laws and subdivision regulations on private and public lands, procures land required by other government departments and agencies, and serves as the government's land broker. The department's major divisions are Land Administration. Land Records, Land Planning, Land Survey, and Parks and Grounds. The director supervises and coordinates all activities of the department and serves as executive secretary of the Territorial Planning Commission, chairman of the Parks and Monuments Committee, and chairman of the Land Utilization Committee.

Appropriation: $308,101

transaclions. In addition, appraisals were made on IO residential structures, 83 land use assignments were processed, and 336 were renewed and inspected. Investigations were made on 265 applications to acquire interest in government land which were referred to the Land Transfer Board. Of this total, J 25 applications were approved, 27 disapproved, and 112 remain under consideration. Negotiations were carried out with 274 individual owners for casements for utilities; 216 building permits were processed for ioning clearance; 374 applications for business licenses and 39 liquor license sites were approved; and 585 inspections were made on ,wning applications.

Land Records The Guam Legislature enacted an amendmenl to the Government Code of Guam relative to recording fees. The fees now range from $1 to $10.

Land Administra#o,i During the year the division acquired 62 parcels by purchase and c.xchange and 25 parcels by perpetual easement. Sixty parcels of government and private land were appraised for the purpose of determining market value in relation to acquisition and/or exchange

Planning

Guam's first comprehensive, islandwide master plan was approved, a turning point in the history of planning on Guam. The plan serves as a guide to islandwide zoning, subdivi79


sion control, and location of public facilities. An islandwide detailed land use and housing condition study also was completed. The land-use atlas has been used to refine and detail master plans for the heavily urbanized and rapidJy growing portions of the island. It was used, along with the future l¥d use studies in the master plan, to develop an islandwide zoning pattern for all portions of the island. A definitive neighborhood analysis is under way wherein the island will be divided into logical neighborhoods and the conditions and type of all structures in the neighborhood will be examined and analyzed. The recreation element of the master plan has been expanded into a design action program covering the ne.xt 5 years within a considerably detailed general program to be undertaken over the next 20 years. Significant progress was made in extending the coverage of the zoning law over a major portion of Guam. Preliminary zoning maps were completed by the Planning Division and the Territorial Planning Commission held public hearings covering all the villages in order to discuss proposed zoning with the people. The Planning Corrurussion adopted the zoning maps as modified by the views expressed at the public hearings. The maps covering the northern half of the island including Agana, Sinajana, Agana Heights, Maina, Chalan Pago, Mangilao, Barrigada, Mongmong-Toto-Maite, Tamuning, Dededo, and Yigo were approved by the rules committee and signed by the Governor. In the field of subdivision administration, and a considerable tightening of administrative controls was accomplished. Detailed subdivision design 80

standards were adopted and mandatory referral lo the Departments of Public Works, Public Health and Welfare, and the Public Utility Agency was effected on all subdivisions over five lots. Survey

A major project underway is the compilation of a new series of topographic maps of the Island of Guam by the U.S. Geological Survey with the assistance of the Survey Division. These wilJ be the most accurate maps yet compiled of Guam. Completion of this project is expected within another year. Further effort has been expended on the islandwide vertical and horizontal control system (G.G.T.N.). Half of the computations necessary to complete the system have been accomplished. All existing control systems are integrated with the Government of Guam Triangulation Net and this control is used as a basis of cadastral mapping started this year. The cadastral maps will eventually show every parcel of land i.n Guam. The drafting of survey standards was a milestone in the improvement of surveys on Guam. The division is compiling a "Manual of Surveying Practice" to establish poHcyand aid private surveyors as well as its own staff. The division improved lines of communication between the military, the Trust Territory, and Government of Guam agencies interested in mapping and surveying. One immediate result is a program of further cartographic photography underway that will be most beneficial. The division is providing the Trust Territory with an in-service training program for their surveyors and also gives technical assistance where requested.


Parks and Grounds

The division is responsible for the development, upkeep, and general maintenance of public parks, the Government House complex, Plaza de Espana, Pasco de Susana, school campuses, playgrounds, and other government-owned land.

During the year, the division developed and planted the Pasco de Susana Strand Garden, e.'<pandedthe planting in the Plaza de Espana, developed and planted the grounds at George Washington High School, initiated development of the Dedcdo Botanical Garden, and assisted in landscaping various public school sites.

Nieves M. Flores Memorial Library Personnel: 9

The Nieves M. Flores Memorial Library, an agency of the Government of Guam, is the public library of Guam and serves the entire population of the island. The library is administered by a seven-member board appointed by the Governor with the consent of the legislature. The chief librarian is also executive secretary to the board. The library has concentrated on collection development and extension of facilities the past year. Two district libraries are under construction at Dededo and Agat. Each will have a floor space of 3,500 square feet and a collection of approximately 6,500 volumes. A total of $89,000 was budgeted for acquisition of library materials with $60,000 of this earmarked for books and equipment for the community libraries. Approximately 7,700 books were processed, 3,000 for the main library, and 4,700 for the community libraries. Significant additions to the juvenile collection were made to offer the best of dlildren's materials for the everwidening interest of the library's young users. The reference collection has been expanded to permit further services to the government, business, and the pro-

fessional community. The library is now designated as the depository library for Federal Government documents. Library services for the blind are also performed. This is made possible through an agreement with the Library of Hawaii wherein the Guam library may request records and Braille materials free of charge. The library program has been strengthened by participation in the Library Services and Construction Act. The State Plan is being amended to cover titles III and IV to be used for a union catalog showing the holdings of all the libraries on Guam and interisland library cooperation with the Trust Territory libraries.

Department of Public Health and Welfare Personnel: 130

The Department of Public Health and Welfare is divided into two djvisions, one for public health, the other for welfaro. The department has been in existence only 3 }'Carsand continues to have a number of administrative problems. One of its main difficulties lies in recruiting and keeping top personnel. One major improvement during the year came with the reorganization of the fiscal section to better serve the department as a whole. The department also was able to obtain additional working space in the Guam Memorial Hospital.

Appropriation: $1,563,611

rabies control efforts by various departments of the government. Islandwide vaccination clinics were held, a continuing program was set up to eliminate the large stray dog population, and an embargo was placed on the entry of all dogs and cats until adequate quarantine facilities can be constructed. The ational Communicable Disease Center has since sent a rabies expert to the island to direct the various control efforts over an e1-'tendcd period.

Dwisum of Public Hea/.lh

Pr,blic Health Nursing, Maternal, Child Hea/.1h,find Crippled Children Sections

This division is responsible for maintaining adequate health standards in the territory. This is accomplished mainly through immuni7.ation pro~rams, contagious disease control, and sanitary inspections. The work is primarily preventive. One of the main concerns of the division during the year was rabies control. Rabies was discoveerd in March in the dog population on the island. As of the writing of this report, 34 cases of rabies, mainly in dogs and cats, had been confinned by laboratory tests in Hawaii. The Governor appointed the department director to coordinate all

Public Health nursing continued to be the major health seivice rendered locally to the village people. The recruitment of nurse personnel was satisfactory with an average of 33 out of a possible 36 positions filled for the year. The staff was supplemented on a parttime basis by student nurses from the College of Guam. There were 4,319 prenatal and 573 post partum clinic visits. All patients attending the prenatal clinic had smears for detection of cancer. Assistance in family planning was made available during the postpartum clinic. A minimum of eight well child clinics were held each week throughout the 87


island. Physicians saw 5,908 children at first-visit conferences and 2,160 on revisits. There were 5,966 nursing firstvisit conferences and 18,096 revisits. As a special project, a mass measles vaccination program was conducted, with more than 18,000 children aged I to 12vaccinated. The school health program was extended to include weekly visits to each school by the village nurse. Physical examinations were offered to parochial as well as public school children in the sixth grade. The Crippled Children's Unit continued its efforts to locate crippled children and to provide them with diagnostic and therapeutic services. Visits to clinics "totaled 3,480. There were 126crippled children admitted to hospital locally and 12 were sent to Hawaii. Under a new, federally funded program, crippled children are referred to Guam for diagnostic and treatment services not available in the Trust Territory.

Health Education, Accident Prevention, and Nttt-rition Section This section was formed in September when a public health educator was assigned to Guam in lieu of funds by the U.S. Public Health Service. The section contributed significantJy to increased community awareness. understanding, and participation in the mass measles vaccination program and the rabies control program. Both activities attracted greater community participation than experienced on similar occasions in the past.

Tuberculosis ConJrol SecJion The U.S. Public Health Service awarded a special project grant to the 88

department to attempt to control tuberculosis which is 100 times more frequent in Guam than in the continental United States. This included the assignment of a USPHS medical officer to Guam to supervise the TB control program that got under way in November. Outpatient visits increased by 30 percent over the previous fiscal year. Bacteriological specimens submitted for examination showed a similar increase.

Sanitatioti Section The section had to concentrate most of its efforts in the areas of sewage disposal, food sanitation, school sanitation, insect and rodent control, housing hygiene, general sanitation, rabies and dog control, and related health matters. There was a need for greater activity in other environmental health areas that received limited attention, these included garbage and refuse disposal, public water supply, swimming pool and bathing beach sanitation, water pollution control, radiological health, milk sanitation, occupational health, industrial hygiene and foreign quarantine. The need for adequate sewage and other liquid waste disposal facilities undoubtedly represent the island's most significant enviornmental health problems. The sanitary engineer position was filled by a Public Health Service officer assigned in lieu of formula grant funds. Most of the professional staff has definite limitations due to a lack of adequate educational and professional backgrounds. It is unable to adequately cope with problems of a complex technical nature. The section has requested that sanitarian positions be upgraded to permit recruitment of college. graduates.


Dental Sectiot1, Patient health education and preventive oral disease measures continued to be the main concern of this section. The staff was increased and treatment services were expanded considerably.

Public Health Laboratory The laboratory handled all animals in the civilian sector suspected of having rabies. Brain samples were sent to the Communicable Disease Center, Atlanta, Ga. By the end of the fiscal year, 20 dogs, six cats, and two rats had been sent, all of which were reported negative. (Military commands ~cnt their samples to an Army laboratory in Hawaii. This laboratory confirmed 34 cases.) Examinations performed by the Public Health Laboratory arc listed in the accompanying statistical tables.

Division of Public ll1/el/are This agency continued efforts to develop and implement a comprehensive c;ystemof public social services. The Family Services Sectio11 expended $345,949.66 in assistance pay111entsduring the fiscal year. The average monthly caseload was 416. At the close of the year il was 433. Bulk of the payments was made under four public assistance titles of the Social Security Act which provide for grants-in-aid to Guam. (See statistical tables.) •The Child W elf arc Services spent $28,070 on foster care. There were 26

278-0Hll~7

children placed with families throughout the island. Much assistance was received from the Guam Foster Parents Association. The Communif)' Services Section operated community centers throughout the year in the villages of Sinajana, Jnarajan, and Talofofo. Centers in Vona, Agat, and Dededo were operated only a portion of the year due to lack of staff. The centers open after school and dose at curfew. Services arc directed primarily toward children and youths aged 7 to 21. This age segment represents 45 percent of the total island population. The Juveriilc Institution had an average daily ward population of 23 and this rose at times to as high as 38. This caused numerous problems as the dormitory was designed for a capacity of 20. Construction is well under way on a new building and it is hoped it will be ready for occupancy shortly. A clinical psychologist conducted weekly group therapy sessions in addition to psychological testing and diagnosis of the wards. The Neighborhood Youth Corp . Vocational Rehabilitation, and neighboring schools were all utilized to augment the institution's program. A Work Experience and Training Program was set up under title V of the Office of Economic Opportunity Act to participate in the nationwide "War Against Poverty." The program is designed lo help train and find employment for the needy. The U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare approved the local program in April and it commenced May 1. The total budget is $108,514.

Department of Public Safety Personnel: 311

The Department of Public Safety is responsible for both police and fire protection and a penal program for territorial and Federal prisoners. The department is composed of the Director's Office, General Administration Division, Technical Services Division, Police Division, Investigation Division, ·Penal Division, Fire Division, and Security Division. During the year, a tragic incident underscored the lethal hazards under which the officers of the department labor in pursuit of their duties. This was the brutal murder of Officer John M. Santos. His loss serves to remind the citizenry that sudden and violent mayhem or death arc an eternal part of the c.xpectation which must confront each officer, his loved ones, and his department. Administf'atioti The department was reorganized during the fiscal year. Two new divisions were created-the Technical Services Division and the Investigation Division, the latter being an expansion of the detective section. The Technical Services Division consists of four branches and is responsible for the training program of the department, the police cadet and the police reserve programs, communications, and transportation. Improvement of dog control functions also was accomplished with 278---0330---68-S

Appropriation: S1,387,597.00

the employment of four men assigned as animal control officers. In addition, the construction of a dog pound, with adequate facilities, was completed. Technical Services Four supervisory officers completed inservice training courses abroad in delinquency control, traffic control, advanced identification, and command level police management. Thirty-eight public safety officers, most of them recruits, completed a course in basic police and fire training. Forty-two of• ficers in supervisory positions attended a supervisory course administered by the College of Guam. A number of personnel also attended an 8-week course in introduction to law enforcement at the college. Two police officers from the Trust Territory spent 6 and 2 weeks respectively observing operations and procedures within the department. Recof'ds and Identification The records and identification section received and recorded 9,819 cases of which 6,236 required specific investigative action. Of the total, 3,029 cases were processed and transmitted to proper authorities for action or infonnation, including 2,269 to the Attorney General's Office, 480 to the 93


Juvenile Court, 230 to military authorities, and 50 to the U.S. Attorney's Office. A total of 2,356 persons were fingerprinted in connection with criminal offenses, the loyalty program and the issuance of identification cards, taxi cab driver's licenses, and firearm registrations. During the year, 826 firearms were registered, making a total of 4, 178 firearms permanently registered with this department including 833 pistols, 705 revolvers, 1,050 shotguns, 1,495 rifles and 95 carbines. The photographic laborato1·y developed 4,792 exposures and printed 7,779 photographs of which 1,971 were developed and 3,426 printed for other departments of the Government of Guam. A total of 9,973 police clearances were processed for agencies of the territorial and Federal governments.

Investigation Dwision Criminal offenses increased 15.7 percent over the previous fiscal year. Actual crimes reported to the police in fiscal year 1967 totaled 3,464, an increase of 4 72 .There were 1,590 criminal offenses cleared in 1967, or 46 percent of the total cases actually known. Of this total. there were 492 cases wherein juveniles were involved or 31 percent; adult civilians 868 or 54.6 percent; and military personnel 230 or H.4 percent. There were 1,488 persons arrested, including 479 juveniles and 129 females. In addition, 765 persons, involved in criminal offenses but not arrested. were referred to the Attorney General's Office, the Juvenile Court, and military authorities for prosecution.

Police Divisio,i, Patrol officers issued 5,428 citatiom. for moving traffic violations, 1,898 for 94

nonhazardous violations, and 180 warning citations, while rendering 2,526 miscellaneous services to the public. Traffic officers investigated 1,810 traffic accidents, an increase of 379 accidents over fiscal year 1966. The number of persons injured as a result of such accidents increased from 614 to 702. There were 21 fa tali tics, the same number as in the previous fiscal year. Some 332 additional vehicular accidents occurring on private property and classified as nontraffic were also investigated. The traffic section processed 13,008 applications for driver's licenses, handled 134 citizen's complaints of traffic violations, and, in conjunction with the Department of Public Works, disposed of 135 vehicles abandoned on public highways and other government-owned lands. The vehicle safety inspection station made safety inspections of 26,959 vehicles, 5,556 of which were rejected for not meeting the requirements of the vehicle code. Operation of the station during the year produced $21,103 in revenue. In compliance with a new law, relative to demonstration of ability to exercise control in the operation of a motorcycle, 1,465 persons were examined. The major event of the fiscal year was the visit of the President of the United States to Guam. This required the recall and assignment of all available on-duty and off-duty officers in all divisions to perform security duties.

Penal Division The total prison population for the fiscal year 1967 was 448, of which an . average of 15.8 percent were held for Federal agencies. The monthly population averaged 37.3 percent inmates. Sentences ranged from 2 days to life.


Continued progress was made in the rehabilitation program for inmates. during the year. Four inmates progressed rapidly in cooking, menu preparation, and supplies control in the prison galley. One of the four, who was serving a 60-year term, was paroled and is working as chief baker at a private establishment. He acquired all his knowledge and skill in baki_ngat the penitentiary. Three inmates completed a course in furniture refinishing at the Vocational Rehabilitation Center. Following this they refinished about 200 school desks for the Depa1tment of Education. The only charge was for materials. The prison operations produced revenues in the amount of $6,304.25. Thi_s came for the confinement and care of Federal prisoners plus the sale, redemption, and care of impounded animals. The animal control unit intensified its drive against stray and unlicensed

dogs as part of the government's rabies control program. A total of 5,817 stray and unlicensed clogswere disposed of.

Public Utility Agency of Guam Personnel: 217

The Public Utility Agency of Guam is a self-sustaining agency providing power, water, telephone, and sewer services to the civilian community. The agency purchases all of its power and a portion of its ,vater supply from the Navy. The telephone service is a joint operation of the agency and the avy. Revenue for the fiscal year totalled $4,836,920.46. Operating expenses were $4,971,794.24. The $134,873.78 operating loss was covered by depreciation. Power

The rapid growth in Guam in the past year is indicated by the upsurge in use of electric power. Generating facilities on the island for the coming year will be hardly sufficient to meet the load requirements. New permanent generation, reliable and economical, must be installed within the next few years by either the Govemment of Guam or a wholesale power generating company to meet the demand for power on Guam. Qualified personnel to operate and maintain a modern steam generating plant do not, at present, exist here, due to the long training time required before one is capable of taking the responsibility for the operation of such a system. A minimum of 12-15 years is required for obtaining proper licenses for such a job. Because of this prob102

Operating Expense: $4,971,794.24

!em, it may of necessity be more economical to install equipment for the present that may have a higher fuel cost but which is more reliable, requires less training time, and can be easily overhauled when repairs are necessary. Electric power load growth in the civilian community can be partly attributed to the many new houses being constructed on Guam with built-in facilities for an all-electric home including year-round air conditioning. Older homes are also being converted to allow for greater use of appliances and thus become bigger power consumers. The residential consumers have, over the past year, used 66,199,419 kilowatthours of electriral energy. This represents a growth over the previous year of 25 percent. However, the number of residentiaJ consumers has only increased from 9, I 24 in fiscal year I966 to 9,894 in this year. or approximately 8.34 percent, indicating a marked increase of power requirement in individual homes. Commercial enterprises are increasing and stores are becoming bigger to fill the needs of the growing and more affluent society. The power growth curve reflects these requirements for power and the need for fi,111capital for construction of generating stations well in advance of demand becomes more evident each day. Although the total clecLrical energy consumption used by the commercial


enterprises has yet to reach t~e to~I energy consumption by the rcs1dent1al consumers, the increase of the commercial usage exceeds the increase of the residential consumption by 1,496,875 kilowatt hours. The commercial consumption increased 31.5 percent over the consumption in fiscal year 1966. The entire civilian community used a total of 127,877,808 kilowatt-hours of electrical energy with peak demand of 26,604 kilowatts this year. Ia May the peak demand exceeded the firm power allocation of 26,400 kilowatts by 200 kilowatts. The Power Division, to accommodate the power requirement in fiscal year 1967, constructed 38,07 I circuit feet of high-voltage powerlines, 83,720 circuit feet of low voltage, and installed a total transformer capacity of 4,500 kilovolt-amperes.

Wale,. New sources of water are continually being developed in advance of the new scheduled trunk water lines and reservoirs for above-ground storage. Wells are the principal new sources relied upon to provide the first big increment of water supply. Each new well developed must be capable of producing 200 galJons of water per minute or approximately 250,000 gallons per day year around. Eight new wells have been developed this past year to make available a potential of two million gallons per day in different areas of Guam. With the new wells connected to the water system, production from the wells has doubled from 40 million monthly in the early pa1"tof this fiscal year to 80 million in lauer part. Correspondingly, the amount of water

being purchased from the Navy has gone down from 110 million gallons monthly to 87 mmion. Because the year was exceptionally wet, annual water consumption went up only 6.3 percent, or 9 l ,829,276 gallons over last year's consumption of 1,450,507,265 gallons. Residential users increased consumption by 39,299,896 gallons or 3.8 percent. Commercial enterprises showed an increased consumption of 52,529,380 gallons or 12.5 percent. Surface water from rivers and springs soon will be made the subject of a more thorough study for future economic water sources. Guam has many small water courses that begin near the mountain areas and flow through lush valleys to the lowlands and then to the sea. Some of these rivers, because of the nature of the ground they pass th.rough, become loaded with sediment during the rainy season, and soon would fill up with mud any large reservoir constructed to store the water. However, the largest river on Guam suitable for a water source appears to be quite free from sediment and is presently under study as a water source for the southern areas of the island. Eventually, the individual village water supplies will be linked together in an islandwide water system, with numerous water sources, both surface and underground, ready to meet the needs of the growing population and commercial developments.

Telephone Telephone exchanges on Guam are presently overloaded and the placin.g of calls is frequently delayed. Engineering studies indicate an investment

103


of approximately $2,200,000 is required to bring the system up to the condition acceptable for normal telephone practice. New central office e..xchanges will have to be built in Agat, Tamuning, Talofofo, and Dededo. The Agana and Barrigada exchanges will need double the present capacity. The need for telephone service always has been far behind the number of families requiring power and water in their homes. Now, without any encouragement, the request for phone service has increased considerably in one year and the telephone system is inadequate to meet these demands.

Sewers The first increment of the new Guam central sewer system is almost completed and should be operational in September. It consists mostly of trunk lines, a new outfall line over the reef, and a new pumping station at the Pasco. The areas feeding into the new system will be Agana, Tamuning, Agana Heights and Naval Air Station. The second increment is under contract and construction should start by September. This phase of the development program will include the villages of Dededo, Tamuning, East Agana, and Agana Heigh ts, portion of Mongmong-Maite, and a portion of Ordot.
