Pearl Harbor. American forces liberated Guam on July 21, 1944, and the island again returned to Naval administration.

In 1950, Congress enacted the Organic Act of Guam. This act brought U.S. citizenship to the island residents and also established the territory's civil government comprising the executive, legislative, and judicial branches.

Present-day Guamanians are a mixture of native Chamorro stock, with English, Spanish, German, Japanese, Filipino, Chinese, Italian, Irish, Mexican, or Portuguese.

With few exceptions, Guam is a free port, and products entering the territory are duty free.

Under the U.S. Customs Simplification Act, articles manufactured in Guam may enter the U.S. mainland duty free provided foreign materials do not constitute more than 50 percent of the total value of the finished product. The total value is determined by bona fide sale or offer for sale, not including freight charges to Guam.

Guam taxes are generally lower than in other U.S. jurisdictions. Residents of the territory· are subject to payment of income tax to the Government of Guam at the same rates and under the same conditions established in the U.S. :mainland for payment of Federal income taxes. There is the usual range of other taxes, such as liquor, gasoline, real property, gross receipts, etc. There is only one taxing authority, however. There are no separate municipal, county, school, district, and improvement district taxes.

Col}?pletebanking facilities are provided by local branches of the Bank of America, the Bank of Hawaii, and the Guam Savings & Loan Association.

The First National City Bank of New York has also established a branch in the territory, and business operations are scheduled to begin before the year ends.

Offices of Federal lending institutions, including the Small Business ~dministration and the Federal Housing Administration, are located in Guam.

A major step in the development of the economy is the rapid growth of a tourist industry. During the year, Pan Amevican increased its twice-weekly flights to daily flights direct to Tokyo from Guam. Continental/ Air Micronesia now links Guam and the trust territory, Okinawa, and Honolulu and Trans-World Airlines will initiate by August 1969 daily nonstop service between Guam and Honolulu. Westbound, TWA departs daily to Okinawa and other links in the airline's roundthe-world route. A weekly flight to Sydney, linking Tokyo, Guam, and the Australian industrial center, has also been inaugurated. Guam thus becomes a major point in Pacific air travel between Honolulu and the West Coast, Tokyo, Manila, Southeast Asia, and Sydney.

Guam is a regular port of call for 11 shipping lines, including American President Lines, Pacific Far East Line, Micronesian Interocean Line, P &. 0 Orient Lines, Dominion Far East Line, and several other Australian and Japanese shipping companies. At least 593 vessels called at Apra Harbor last year. .At least two foreign carriers have expressed interest in servi~g Guam.

The territory is adequately served by a highway system comprising 191 miles of road.

Guam is the communication hub of the Western Pacific. Modem communication· facilities provide instantaneous contact with virtually all parts of the world. Radio Corporation of America (RCA) and the Australian Cable Communication System have up-todate facilities, including undersea telephone and telegraphic cables linking commercial centers in Asia, North and South America, Europe and the rest of the Pacific. International Telephone

Many historical remnants of the Spanish era, such as the old bridge shown in this photo, provide points of interest for the visitors on a tour around the island. The Guam Tourist Commission reported approximately 18,000 visitors during fiscal year 1969. The influx of tourists, especially from Japan, is continually rising every year.

and Telegraph (ITT) services the military.

The territory has one daily newspaper, a radio and television station, and several weekly and monthly publications. Pacific Stars and Stripes which is published in Tokyo also is circulated locally. Associated Press, United Press International and supplemental news and feature services are used by the news media.

Guam's educational system compares favorably with many U.S. mainland communities of comparable size.

The curricula, subject matter and achievement goals are essentially the same as those of mainland schools.

The island's two senior public high schools-George Was.hi n gt on and John F. Kennedy-are accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.

More than 27,000 children of school age attend public and private institutions.

The University of Guam had an enrollment of 2,138 in fall 1968 and is accredited by the Western Association

S.

of Schools and Colleges as a 4-year, degree-granting institution. The University has four undergraduate schools

4

( nursing, arts and sciences, education, and continuing education), and has a graduate school in education.

GENERAL GOVERNMENT The enactment of the Guam Elective Governor Bill, the increase of funding authorization under the Rehabilitation Act, the authorization of a $5 million appropriation for economic development, and the reorganization of the executive branch by creating four new departments highlighted fiscal year 1969.

The Elective Governor Act, signed

by President Johnson late last year, ushers in a new political era on Guam.

For the first time since the establishment of civil government 19 years ago, the local electorate is given the right to choose by popular ballot their Gov• ernor and Lieutenant Governor. Previously, the territory's chief executive has been appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate.

In November of 1970, Guam will achieve a long-standing aspirationthat of having full self-governmentfor on this date, the first gubernatorial election will be held.

The Elected Governor Act limits any one Governor from serving more than two consecutive 4-year terms. Among other things, it also calls for the appointment of a U.S. Comptroller for Guam. Named for this post was Floyd W. Fagg, a long-time career Federal employee who was scheduled to begin operation of his office by July 1969.

The U.S. Congress also enacted a measure increasing by $30 million, from $45 to $75 million, the authorization of funds under the Guam Rehabilitation Act. This action provided a big boost to the territory's rehabilita-

tion program which began shortly after the island suffered extensive destruc• tion by Typhoon Karen in November 1962. Since then Congress has appropriated approximately $43 million of the original $45 million authorization in loans and grants. To date, 36 projects have been completed ~nd still many others have yet to be accomplished.

The island's economic development also received a boost when Congress enacted a law authprizing the appropriation of $5 million to accelerate the economic growth of the territory. A portion of this amount has been earmarked for agricultural development projects and the establishment of industrial parks.

At the request of the administration, the Guam Legislature approved several measures relative to reorganizing the executive branch. As a result, four new departments were created while twoexisting ones were revamped and part of their functions transferred to the entities.

To effect a more efficient operation, the former Department of Labor and Personnel was reorganized into the Department of Labor and the Pepartment of Administration. All aspects of labor management functions, including the Guam Employment Service, were assumed by the new Labor department. The new Administration department now handles all personnel and administrative functions as well as management, finance, and accounting.

5 370-503 0 - 70 - 2

The latter two functions were formerly held by the Department of Finance which itself has also been reorganized and redesignated as the Department of Revenue and Taxation.

Revenue. and Taxation now primarily handles tax regulatory enforcement; development of an effective tax audit, appraisal, assessment, and collection programs; as well as handling registration, licensing, examination, investigation of business establishments and other allied activities.

The fourth newly created department is the Department of Corrections.

This new department assumes the administration of the Penal Division ( Guam Penitentiary) which was transferred from the Department of Public Safety and the Youth Correctional Facility which was formerly under the Department of Public Health and Social Services.

Other reorganization included the establishment of Government of Guam's Civil Service Commission and the consolidation of the Budget and Management sections under the Governor's office into a Bureau of Budget and Management Research.

The Civil Service Commission, comprising seven members appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Legislature, assumed all functions of the personnel board. Its day-to-day operation is headed by an executive director.

• During the year, the director and deputy commissioner of Revenue and Taxation traveled to Washington, D.C., and met with representatives from American Samoa, Virgin Islands, Treasury, Interior, and Internal Revenue Service to discuss income tax problems which affected the various U.S. possessions. Known as a "Tax Task Force," they considered problems arising from the application of the Internal Revenue Code to U.S. territories on a dual law basis and the possible

6

resolutions of these problems on administrative or legislative basis.

Guam recommended that individual permanent resident taxpayers be required to file only one return with the taxing jurisdiction in which he was a resident on the last day of that year.

This would require a reciprocal acceptance of W-2 forms by Guam and IRS. This proposal would require rewriting section 932 of the Internal Revenue Code. It would eliminate the treatment of Organic Act citizens as aliens for Federal income tax purposes and conversely U.S. citizens for Guam income tax purposes. There was a unanimous support for amending the Organic Act to permit U.S. citizens who are permanent residents of Guam to fulfill their U.S. tax obligation by filing a Guam income tax return reporting their entire worldwide income.

Approximately $43 million in general fund revenue was realized by the government in fiscal year 1969. This is approximately $9 million more than last year's total of approximately $34 million. The increase is largely seen in the local income _taxrevenue which jumped from $12.1 million in fiscal year 1968 to $17.2 million in fiscal year 1969, an increase of $5.1 million. Revenue increases were also realized in other areas, including $1.7 million in U.S. income tsi.x and $1.3 million in the gross receipt tax.

Income tax deficiencies resulting from audit examination were $9,544.32 more than the previous year, for a total of $917,339. A total of 2,952 returns were audited and completed, a decrease of 760 returns compared to last year's.

Collection of delinquent accounts totaled a record high of $2,142,603.

This is $196,133 more than was collected the previous year. Over 1,500 delinquent returns representing $198,474 in unreported tax, interests and penal-

ties were also secured through the es• tablished delinquent returns program.

The Real Property Tax Division reported increases in assessment values and number of land parcels and buildings entered in its tax rolls during the year under review. There were 14,552 land parcels assessed, 943 more than the previous year's total representing an approximately 6 percent increase.

This is largely attributed to the establishment of additional subdivisions and the sale or exchange of government land to private individuals.

Total assessment on land parcels amounted to $19,663,130, an increase of 5 percent or $927,200 over the previous year, thus increasing land taxes by $27,816. The total land tax for the year was $589,322.

A total of 11,612 buildings was assessed during the year, 1,741 more than the previous year. This represents an increase of 19 percent in the number of buildings assessed and $106,248 in tax amount over the preceding year.

The total building taxeri for the year amounted to $662,116.

The combined taxes for land and buildings totalled $1,251,439, or $134,426 more than the previous year's total.

The Department of Administration's Division of Accounts initiated during the-year a complete fiscal management system review. This study was conducted by the local branch office of Peat, Marwick & Mitchell of Los Angeles, a nationally recognized fiscal management firm. It was geared toward the development of a comprehensive fiscal management system that would: ( 1) Provide adequate fiscal control, (2) provide departments and agencies with accurate and timely fiscal information that will ensure fiscal control at the appropriation or other required levels, and (3) support the needs of departments and agencies for detailed statistical data for use in intra-

departmental repofts and reports to outside organizaitions.

During the year, the Division also maintained an estimated $51.4 million in receipts and $50.3 million in disbursements.

The department's Supply Management Division made arrangements for direct purchases from the Naval Supply Depot, Guam, on common stock items. This procedure is expected to produce savings on stock investment and space utilization in the division's storage warehouse. During the year, purchase commitment amounted to $5,602,794 and 7,307 requisitions were received and processed.

Of the total purchases in fiscal year 1969, 81 percent were made through local vendors.

Major legislation enacted by the Legislature: -Restores jurisdiction of the Island Court over criminal offenses committed by military personnel.

-Permits representation by legal counsel in Juvenile Cour.t hearing.

-Redesignates the College of Guam as the University of Guam.

-Creates the Public EmployeeManagement Relations Act. -Authorizes special election to ascertain public views on district representation in the Legislature.

-Creates the First Constitutional Convention of the territory of Guam.

-Establishes the uniform Consumer Credit Code.

-Creates the Guam Employee Relations Act. -Increases the jurisdiction of the Island Court, provides trial by jury, changes local jury selection system to conform with the Federal system, and provides grand jury indictment in felony cases.

The Constitutional Convention comprises 43 delegates from various districts elected during a special elec-

7

tion in May 196~. The Convention was created to review and recommend necessary revisions or changes in the Organic Act of Guam, which serves as the territory's Constitution. The Convention will submit a report of its findings and recommendations to the Legislature by next year.

An islandwide census conducted by the district commissioners showed a

8

civilian population of 61,283 as of December 31, 1968. This represents an increase of approximately 2,500 compared to the census made in April 1968. Including military personnel and civil service employees and .their dependents plus Government of Guam contract workers and alien workers, the island's overall population is approximately 100,000.

EDUCATION Facilities, programs and enrollment figures continued to expand in the field of education throughout the year, while student demands increased and courses were revised to satisfy local needs.

By an Act of the Legislature, on August 12, 1968, the College of Guam was renamed the University of Guam with a five-member board of regents. The University was organized into three undergraduate colleges-the college of letters, arts, and sciences; the college of education; and the college of continuing education-and a graduate school, each under the direction of a dean.

On the capital improvements scene, close to $3 million were expended by the Department of Education on the construction of two new elementary schools having a total of 66 classrooms.

In the blue-print stage are plans for a new elementary school to be built in the Mongmong-Toto-Maite area, and a much needed junior high school to be constructed in Inarajan to serve students living at the southern end of the island. . The University saw the completion of the new science building early in the year, and is anticipating the completion of a Student Center plus three dormitory buildings by the fall of 1969. The dormitory is designed to accommodate 300 students. By January, 1970, a twostory Health Science Building to house the school of nursing should ~!so have been completed.

• The operational budget for the Department of Education reached a rec-

ord high of $15 million for the 1968-69 school year. The budget for the University soared from $1,608,177 for fiscal year 1968, to $3,392,870, of which $302,570 was supplied through Federal grants.

Although the construction of new school facilities has finally liberated students from the World War II quonset huts, the expected increase in enrollment of 2,000 students next year will continue to cause an acute classroom shortage with the resultant high ratio of students per class. The anticipated enrollment for 1970 is 22,500, as compared to the 20,500 students enrolled this year.

Of the 988 12th graders enrolled, 769 received high school diplomas, compared to 889 graduates the previous year. A record number of 1,000 teachers were employed by the Department of Education to staff the system's two high schools, five junior high schools, the school for handicapped children, and the 21 elementary schools.

Enrollment at the University of Guam averaged 2,000 students this year, compared with the previous student body of 1,700. A total of 114 degrees were conferred during May, of which 91 were bachelor of arts degrees, 21 were masters degrees, and two were associate in arts degrees.

From the school of nursing 19 students graduated, 17 of whom are now ·employed, and two pursuing baccalaureate degrees on the mainland.

held during the year, 45 students graduated.

In efforts to cope with the bilingual problem that exists on Guam, the Department of Education instituted two new programs. A preschool program was conducted for 150 children in which major emphasis was placed on the development of language skills. In addition, a major innovative program was begun. This was the pilot project for teaching English via television. The initial project included the schools of U matac and Merizo and was part of the Title III ESEA program.

Teaching English via television was also made possible through use of the expanded Learning Resources Center.

In addition to a television studio, the LRC had facilities for creating many of the schools' needed media materials.

An apult vocational program with the proportions of a technical junior college was also started during the year, and exemplary programs in vocational education were implemented for• 100 special education students.

In line with its objective of improving living conditions through means of education and training vocational skills, the Community Action Agency (CAA) , formerly known as the Economic Opportunity Commission, enrolled 938 4- and 5-year-old children from underprivileged homes in a Headstart program. Unfortunately, the remaining 62 eligible children could not he enrolled for lack of facilities. Also 250 4- and 5-year-olds from more affiuen t families were enrolled in an educational program under Project FIVE, a nonfunded program.

On-the-job training was afforded 17 of Guam's youths through the cooperation of the CAA and a number of local business firms. As a direct result of this training, five of these youths were placed on permanent jobs. The agency also offered remedial education and counselling during the summer months to encourage youths to return to school after the long vacation.

Under the MDTA program, CAA secured an enrollment of 92 students

who undertook courses in stenography, accounting and welding. At the conclusion of the year, 26 stenographers and six welders were graduated-a total of 32 youths.

Considerable reorganization took place at the University of Guam. The Division of Natural Sciences in the college of letters, arts and sciences, was divided into the division of Biosciences and Marine Studies, and the division of Physical Sciences, Mathematics and Home Economics, thus affording greater concentration in the academic preparation and offerings of the respective areas. At the same time, 12 new courses were added to the undergraduate major curriculum in the division of Biosciences and 'Marine

12

Studies to include a core of courses with either a botany or a zoology option.

At the graduate level, a master of arts degree in history was offered for the first time and the graduate program had a total enrollment of 45 students.

Other new graduate programs were offered in elementary education, early childhood educati9n, and in education administration and supervision.

Research played a major role in the island's education system during the year. Under one of the title III, ESEA projects, the Department of Education conducted a program entitled the "Needs-Assessment Study for Students and Schools in the School System of Guam." The purpose of the

With the acute shortage of local skilled labor, emphasis is placed on vocational training, especially for young people. Such training is being provided by the Guam Trade School and Technical School, apprenticeship programs of the Navy and Government of Guam, and other similar p{ograms offering on-the-job training.

study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the present school' system and to determine in what areas improvements should be initiated. Surveys associated with the study met with remarkable response and cooperation, and conclusions and recommendations arising from the data gained are expected to provide a solid basis for future reforms designed to gear education more closely in line with Guam's needs.

On the university scene, within the Micronesian Area Research Center, a Council for Anthropological Research was established to conduct and coordinate research in anthropology and archaeology within the Micronesian and adjacent culture areas of Oceania, and to maintain contact with other professional anthropological org~nizations.

Within the division of Biosciences and Marine Studies, research and reference collections were expanded.

Over 2,050 specimen lots were catalogued. The amphibian and reptile collection now numbers more than 1,200

specimens, and a large collection of local bird skins was initiated. The algae herbarium was increased with collections from Rota, Saipan, South Australia, the Philippines, Japan, and Mexico.

The same division also made studies of the extensive damage caused by the crown-of-thorns starfish currently destroying the live coral on Guam's surrounding reefs, and has received a $30,000 grant to conduct research on the effect of pollution from the Agana outflow in the Agana Bay. The Union List of Serials, compiled and bound in fiscal year 68 by the Public Library in collaboration with the University of Guam, has been updated, and work on the Union Catalogue is continuing through the cooperation of the two institutions. The catalogue contains all the holdings of the public libraries and the Micronesian Area Research Center of the University of Guam.

An additional library in Barrigada

13 370-503 0 - 70 - 3

was due for completion by the end of fiscal year 69, bringing the number of branch libraries up to three, the other two being located at Dededo and Agat. Library services were also extended during the year to the Guam Memorial Hospital, the Guam Penitentiary and the Juvenile House of Corrections.

As of February 1969, the Guam

14

Museum was, for the first time, designated by law as the "official depository and custodian of the historical artifacts of Guam." The influx of tourists to Guam from Japan has resulted in the Museum becoming one of· the most popular attractions on the island. Visitors to the Museum this year twice exceded the number who visited the previous year.

HEALTH, SANITATION AND SOCIAL SERVICES The period under review witnessed steadily increasing demands upon hospital services, and a broadening of social service functions to cope with all types of human problems hazardous to health.

The Guam Memorial Hospital is accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals, and is a member of the American Hospital Association, the Association of Western Hospitals and the Hawaii Hospital Association.

J. H. Feller & Associates recently concluded a study on the physical fa. cilities of the Guam Memorial Hospital with the recommendation that the Government of Guam establish an Islandwide Health Care Center composed of facilities that would provide every type of health service for its people. The proposed Health Center would be a concentration of all major groups, both public and private, interested in health care, on a common site surrounding a core of shared services. Under such an arrangement, services would be provided by an independent, voluntary, nonprofit corporation.

In the belief that such centralization of health services would lead to the best possible heal-th care at rates the patient could afford, the recommendation by Feller & Associates was accepted by the board of trustees of the hospital, and the decision made to seek

legislative support to implement the recommendations .

Meanwhile, the "F" wing of the hospital was under modernization and reconstruction to provide 48 beds for tuberculosis patients. The new facility increased the number of hospital beds from 237 to 285. Vacation of the present TB wards will provide room for the much needed extended care facility. Further construction at the hospital took place on the "C" wing to provide for a public health diagnostic and water quality analysis laboratory at a cost of $220,683.

Patient services rendered during the fiscal year totaled $2,439,408, an increase of $272,080 over the previous year. Admissions to the hospital, including 1,819 newborn, numbered 7,667, an increase of 338. Outpatient visits totaled 37,246, and 34,363 X-ray examinations were performed as compared to 21,430 last year. Total collection in accounts receivable was $1,581, 222, an increase of $320,853 over the previous year.

There was an increase in free services offered to TB patients, to persons seeking Mental Health Services, ALS, NINDB, School Injuries assistance, Public Health services, etc., amounting to $458,059, an amount $92,624 in excess of last year. Eighteen social service cases were approved for abatement, amounting in dollar value to $15,570, a decrease of 207 cases and a decrease in dollar value of $110,212

area of disease prevention. The prevention program led to the testing of 5,144 7th- and 12th-grade students. As a result, 111 students were placed on drugs and one child was given therapy.

Tests were also conducted on 1,617 school employees. Of these, 114 were found to be infected with tuberculosis and were placed on drugs.

The policy of prevention also led to the screening of groups who were considered to have a high incidence of tuberculosis-the alien contract laborers. A large number of TB suspects were identified among this group.

Rabies control activities, the responsibility of the Department of Public Safety ( dog pound) and the Department of Agriculture ( predator control) , were to be placed under the jurisdiction of the new Zoonosis Con-

trol Division. A total of 2,046 dogs and cats were vaccinated during the year for rabies, as compared to 1,210 the previous year.

The Mental Health Clinic extended services to 268 patients during the year with referrals from the Social Services Division, the Public Health Nurses Division, the hospital, the Department of Education and private doctors and clinics. The program was, however, chronically hampered by the difficulty in recruiting professionally qualified persons. Arrangements were made, nevertheless, for close cooperation between the Juvenile Institution and the Department of Corrections for Mental Health Clinic services. A study was also made of the number of suicides on Guam by year and places of origin.

17

Legislation was passed authorizing Air Quality Control, and improvements were secured on water quality legislation. Involvement in Solid Waste Management activities also resulted in gaining a $70,000 Federal grant for planning, and in the Legislature increasing appropriations for refuse collection from approximately $250,000 in fiscal year 1969 to $500,000 in fiscal year 1970. Steps to reduce surface and ground water pollution were initiated, and all public beaches were monitored.

Modernization and construction of the . Public Health Laboratory was scheduled for completion in August 1969. The new facility will provide 2,600 square feet of additional laboratory space to complement the existing 700 square feet. The total number of tests conducted in the laboratory during the year was 50,727. Two laboratory personnel were sent)'or training at NCDC. One employee was trained in the diagnosis of Shigella and Salmonella, and the other technician

underwent tl<!,iningin the diagnosis of tuberculosis.

The new Vital Statistics Act of Guam gave the Vital Statistics office a legal and enforceable base from which to operate. The U.S. standard certificates for birth, death, and fetal death were adopted during the year; vital statistics procedures were generally improved and conversion to the IBM computer system was effected. Over 5,000 copies of certificates were issued, and 2,512 births were registered.

Under the Comprehensive Health Planning program a study of the infant and fetal mortality of the indegenous population of Guam 1965-67 was completed, and a survey was initiated for measuring the impact of ill-health in the entire population.

Health education was stimulated by a series of weekly, half-hour television programs by the health educator. An emphasis program for health teaching in the area of drug abuse was also initiated in cooperation with the Attorney General's Office.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT In fiscal·year 1969, building activities continued on the upswing with an increase of 20 percent over the previous year.

A total of 1,900 building and miscellaneous permits was issued by the Department of Public Works for an estimated value on residential and commercial construction of $15.5 million.

Of the permits issued, 1,530 were for new residential dwellings.

Despite the increase in the building boom, there remains acute housing shortage in the territory. With the continuing annual population increase, boosted in part by newcomers establishing permanent or temporary residency, the problem is likely to remain acute for the next few years. It is estimated that the territory needs approximately 4,000 more homes to satisfy the ever-growing housing requirement, including at least 1,400 to accommodate military families.

The Guam Housing and Urban Renewal Authority in fiscal year 1969 began construction of a 250-unit lowrent housing project. These units will be used primarily to accommodate low-income families who are to be displaced by one of two urban renewal projects the authority is implementing.

At an estimated cost of $5.1 million in Federal funds, the low-rent project consists of six sites, all located within a mile of the capital city of Agaria.

The units include duplexes and fourplexes,-ranging in size from one bedroom to six bedrooms.

Construction began in February 1969 by the Central Mill Supply Co., a South Korean firm which submitted the lowest bid in competition with other • qualified local contractors. Lawrence Johnsrud and Associates of Guam is the architect for the project.

Construction schedule calls for 18 months, with the completion of the entire project expected by June of 1970. At this writing, all six sites were cleared and being graded. At one site, where construction first started, the streets have been laid out, building foundations have been poured and hollow block walls were being laid.

Federal funds allocated for the project thus far totaled $2,167,000.

In conjunction with urban renewal, the development of the nontitle I subdivision adjacent to the Sinajana project area was authorized by the Ninth Guam Legislature and approved by the Governor. It calls for 18 acres of undeveloped land to be developed into 54 residential lots, averaging 6,500 square feet in size.

Initially, the sum of $300,883 in Concurrences on acquisition prices for funds was earmarked by the Legislature for the project. Of the amount, $93,075 has been utilized for land purchase, and another $18,000 has been committed to pay for the plans and specifications contracted to Trasen and Associatesof Guam. Bids for site development were announced at the end of the fiscal year, and construction is expected to begin before the end of 1969.

Meanwhile, work on the urban re19

The Guam Housing and Urban Renewal Authority this year began the construction of a 250-unit low-rent public housing project primarily oo accommodate families to be relocated as a result of urban renewal action. The $5.1 million project is federally funded by HUD and consists of six sites all located close oo the capital of Agana. Photo above shows the architecture's sketch of site 4 in Agana Heights.

newal projects continued to progress.

Concurrences on acquisition prices for 240 properties to be acquired by the authority in the Sinajana project were received from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. A total of 525 parcels are scheduled to be acquired as part of the Sinajana Urban Renewal Plan.

For the Yona urban renewal project, the first acquisition appraisal report by the Norman D. Fitzgerald and Associates of California was completed during the year. However, the execution of the Loan and Grant Contract with HUD was held back because the territory's workable program certification which expired in November 1968 has not been recertified by HUD. The Sinajana project consists of 214.9 acres and includes 679 residential and other buildings. Of the 679 structures, 426 are to be cleared, 229 designated for rehabilitation, and 24 to be retained as they are.

20

About half the size of Sinajana, the Yona urban renewal project encompasses 87.14 acres. It includes 237 buildings, of which 156 are to be cleared, 73 designated for rehabilitation, and eight to remain as they are.

Both urban renewal projects are financed on a 75/25 percent matching basis. Of the $12,292,040 estimated gross cost for Sinajana, the Federal share amounts to $9,298,436 and the local government's contribution is $2,993,604. For the Yona project, the Federal Government has reserved $3,821,115 and the local share is $1,230,345 for a gross total of $5,051,460.

The Guam Housing Corporation approved 72 loan applications for a total value of $986,315 during the fiscal year. This is almost double that of the previous year, when 49 home loans were approved for an estimated value of $661,500.

At the end of fiscal year, 71 applications for loans totaling approximately $1 million were still awaiting availability of funds. The corporation has already sought a legislative appropriation for that amount, which has yet to be approved. In addition, there were approximately 180 more application valued at $2.5 million being processed.

To help .alleviate the housing shortage, the Guam Rental Corporation has under construction 115 rental units.

This is an FHA multifamily housing project under section 221 ( d) 3, otherwise known as Below Market Interest Rate Program. It is designed for low and moderate income families and for nonhomeowners in the same bracket.

Being developed by the Kaiser-Hawaii Kai contractor, work on the project began in December 1968. As of the end of the fiscal year 1969, .57 units

were completed. The rest are expected to be completed by November 1969.

The Guam Power Authority, created by law the previous fiscal year, began operation on March 15, 1969 when it took over the assets and facilities of the electric system for the private sector of the territory, formerly operated by the Public Utility Agency of the Government of Guam.

Headed by a board of directors, the nucleus of the GPA personnel included 113 employees who were formerly with PUAG engaged in power operation. A general manager also was hired by the Board to direct the day-to-day operations of the authority.

amount of $11 million, of which $1,425,000 in series A bonds.

Revenue from the series A bonds will be used to purchase and install an 11,000 kilowatts diesel generating equipment. It will be located at the new Tamuning Commercial Industrial Park, a site secured from the Guam Economic Development Authority.

The new equipment is expected to arrive on Guam by December 1969, and test operation to begin February 1, 1970.

The remaining funds on the bond financing program are to be used for expansions and improvements of the island's power system.

The GPA also has finalized plans to build a 33,000 kilowatt steam generating • plant at an estimated cost of $9,575,000. Other plans call for increasing substation capacity and higher voltage transmission system.

In fiscal year 1969, the authority's annual gross revenue amounted to $4,563,919.

Expansion of the islandwide telephone system continued during the year under the Public Utility Agency of Guam. The $2:5million expansion program included the construction of a new 6,000-line capacity exchange in Tumon and the additions of new lines to the Agana Central Exchange to bring its capacity to 6,000.

Also under construction were an 800-line central office in Agat to serve the southwestern portion of the island, and a 400-line central office in Merizo to serve the southern communities.

The exchange in Mangilao was being expanded to satisfy the growing demand for telephone services in the central portion of the island, which is also served by the Agana Central Exchange.

Extensive preparation was also made during the year to convert the island's dialing system from six to seven digits and bring Guam in line with the inter22

national system. The change-over, scheduled for August 1969, will affect only telephones serviced by the Government of Guam exchanges, exclusive of the military.

An increase in telephone rates was approved during the fiscal year but will not become effective until October 1, 1969 after improvements of services have been accomplished. The hike affects both residential and commercial telephones, with an increase of as much as $4 for the co~mercial private line, from $16 to $20 per month.

Consumption of water for both commercial and domestic use in fiscal year 1969 was approximately 7.3 million gallons per day. This is an increase of 4.3 percent over the previous year's 7.0 million requirement per day. The increase was attributed to the 848 new water services connected to various consumers during the year. It is anticipated that by 1970, the daily consumption will rise to 8.5 million gallons, and by 1975 the average will be 12.5 million gallons per day.

There were 29 deep water wells in operation as the second increment of the water resource development program was completed. The third inc~ment now underway includes six additional reservoirs, two new booster stations, rehabilitation of used springs, and the interconnection of the Central Water System with Talofofo, Malojloj, and Inarajan in the southern part of the island.

The island's water supply comes from four major sources-Government of Guam, Layne International, Navy, and the Air Force. Because of its limited w~ter sources, Government of Guam purchases water from Layne International, Navy, and Air Force in order to meet the requirement for the ever-growing civilian community.

To help defray the rising cost in operation and services, Public Utility also increased the water rate for com-

mercial and domestic use on April 1, 1969 from 50 cents per thousand gallons to 65 cents.

Work on the construction of an islandwide sewer system continued during fiscal year 1969. The Dededo sewer lines in the northern part of the island were completed as well as portions of the Tumon sewer lines and pumping s~tions. There are now 10 sewer pumping stations either in use or under construction. Work was underway in Asan, Piti and the western section of Agana in preparation for linkage to the central sewer system.

In Fiscal Year 1969, 147 tie-ins were made to the sewer lines. This number was lower than had been anticipated.

One reason was that it cost the homeowner or commercial establishment approximately $300 to make the tie-in from his property to the sewer lines.

Another w~. the law which gives the property owner a grace period •of 5 years to make the hookup if his cesspool or septic iank is still in good condition.

The Department of Land Management completed two survey projects for subdivisions, One was an agricultural subdivision in Malojloj comprising 95 lots ~nd the other was a 26-lot residential subdivision in Talofofo, both in the southern part of the island.

During the year, 200 parcels were surveyed, 383 private maps were processed, and 44 land registration cases were verified. The Department's Land Planning Division received 255 maps, of which 111 were for lot parceling, 19 tracts for residential subdivision, 63 tracts for rural subdivision, and 62 parcels for land registration. The Territorial Land Planning Commission, an

arm of Land Management, approved 46 applications for changes in zone, 4 7 for variances, and also rejected 19 requests for zone changes or variances.

During the year, the Department's Land Administration Division acquired 18 parcels of land by exchange and seven parcels by purchase. It also acquired 133 grants of easement for power, 155 grants of easement for water and sewer lines, 17 grants of easement for road rights of way, and 11 parcels for school sites.

A total of 91 parcels of land in Malojloj and Talofofo were disposed of by the Land Transfer Board. Building permits for 765 units were also inspected for compliance with the building setback requirement, and 790 business licenses were processed. During the year, 6,210 documents were also recorded and the number of Certificates of Title issued totaled 2,309.

Revenues collected included $4,344 for application fees, $21,147 for document tax, $448 for photographic services, $31,059 for registry fees, $22,856 for rental of government land, and under the Agana Revolving Fund, $175,915 was collected for land sales.

The Board of Engineering and Architectural Examiners reported an increase in registered engineers from 43 to 47.

As part of the antipoverty program, the Guam Economic Opportunity Commission initiated a home improvement project to provide temporary repairs of homes of low-income families as a stopgap measure to health hazards. During the year, the EOG completed repairs on 37 homes throughout the island, while repairs on 26 others were underway.

23

PROTECTION AND DEVELOPMENT OF RESOURCES The Guam Rehabilitation Act, a boon to the territory's capital improvement program, was given . an added boost by Congress early in fiscal year 1969 when its funding authorization of $45 million was raised to $75 million. This increase paved the way for the continuation of rehabilitation projects vitally essential to Guam.

Of the original $45 million authorization, $43,061,000 has already been appropriated, with the overall program only partially accomplished.

Thus far, a total of 36 projects has been accomplished under the Rehabilitation Act since 1963.

Four capital improvement projects under the Rehabilitation Act were completed during the year under review. These included the Science Building at the University of Guam, two elementary schools and a power substation.

In addition, that portion of the new $11 million Commercial Port of Guam designed for container operation was completed and opened for operation in May, 1969.

Projects contracted for during the year included the Central Area Water Project comprising wells, pipelines and reservoirs; a sewer system 'incl a treat-. ment plant for Agat and Santa Rita villages; construction of additional 32 elementary classrooms at four schools; and the third increment of the new Commercial Port at Cabras Island.

24

A total of 13 projects were also in various stages of construction at the end of the year under review.

During fiscal year 1969, a total of $10,078,577 was withdrawn from the U.S. Treasury for construction expenditures under the Rehabilitation Act. This brings the grand total withdrawn as of June 30, 1969 to $35,553,777. Of this sum $21,033.077 represent loans which must be repaid.

Repayment of such loans began July 1, 1968 and two payments totaling $986,918 were made during fiscal year 1969.

The territory participated in many other grants-in-aid programs and almost all agencies of the government benefited under such programs.

The air passenger service on Guam received another boost from a decision handed down by the Civil Aviation Board in the Pacific Route Case. The decision authorized a third major airline, in addition to Pan American and Continental/ Air Micronesia, to operate through Guam. Trans World Airlines, Inc., will commence operations on August 3, 1969 with daily flights east and west connecting Guam with Honolulu, Saipan, Okinawa, Taipei, and Hong Kong in its round-the-world route.

The Guam-Tokyo flight by Pan American continued to show an increasing popularity as the number of Japanese tourists went up. To meet the demand for greater accommodation,

Pan Am increased its schedule from four to seven flights per week by the end of the year. April was the peak month for arrivals from Japan with a total of 2,154. Of this number, 1,683 were Japanese, almost double the figure for the same period in fiscal year 1968.

Flight activities at the Guam International Air Terminal, the island's only commercial airport, also saw an increase during the year. International flights averaged 36 per week compared to 26 the preceding year, and scheduled flights to and from the neighboring trust territory increased by seven, from 23 to 30 per week.

During the year, the terminal serviced 92,469 international passengers and handled 3,931,370 pounds of air cargo and 6,437,991 pounds of mail.

Additionally, 60,785 trust territory passengers were serviced, and 2,563,361 pounds of air cargo and 563,701 pounds of mail were handled to and from the trust territory.

The terminal's revenue for the fiscal year totalled $248,557, an increase of 25 percent compared to the previous year's total of $188,067.

The Air Terminal Master Plan was also completed during the year. It calls for major improvements and expansions of the present facilities in order to meet the demands resulting from the continually increasing air traffic in the Western Pacific.

As in the previous years, tourism continued to receive major emphasis.

The Guam Tourism Commission, under the Department of Commerce, increased its advertising and tourist promotion campaign in an intensified attempt to "sell" Guam in various places abroad. It placed coupon advertisements in periodicals such as the American Legion Magazine, PAA Clipper, Asia Magazine, Esquire Magazine, Hawaii Business Industry, Holi-

day, Independent Travel Program, Journal of American Chamber of Commerce of Japan, Los Angeles Times, National Observer, New Yorker, New York Times, Pacific, Sunset, TAM, Travel, Travel Agent, Travel Trade, and the Veterans of Foreign Wars magazines.

A new poster and a new brochure in Japanese as well as a new information booklet were also produced and distributed by the Commission during the year.

According to the Guam Tourist Commission, 18,000 visitors came to Guam during the year. These included thousands who made brief stops on Guam aboard cruise liners destined for other. points in the Pacific and Far East areas.

The Guam Economic Development Authority obtained a financial grant from the U.S. Economic Development Administration on a 50-percent basis for site development of the Tamuning Commercial-Industrial Park. This grant was for the construction of the first increment of 10 acres at a total cost of $134,100 for the purpose of setting up commercial buildings as part of a shopping center complex.

Site development was approximately 75 percent completed.

The remaining portion of the Tamuning park consists of 16 acres.

It will be developed for light industry under the second increment which is scheduled to begin in next fiscal year.

GEDA has another industrial park in the offing. It consists of 32 acres of property located near the new Guam • Commercial Port at Cabras Island.

Although GEDA has finn plans for development, the property has not yet been transferred from the Government of Guam which currently owns it.

GEDA already has a number of applicants which have submitted proposals for lease. They include ESSO Inter-

25

national, Maritime Services Division of the Dil'lingham Corp., Kaiser Cement and Gypsum Corp., and Mobil Oil. Negotiations are underway with Government of Guam to transfer the park area to GEDA, and the transfer is expected to be made shortly.

During the year under re".'iew, GEDA received 11 applications for qualifying certificate. Six of them were approved and issued, two were denied or withdrawn, and three were pending.

This brings to 17 the total number of qualifying certificates approved and issued since GEDA was established in 1966. Of these, 12 qualified firms are now in operation or have commenced construction of their facilities. They include four watch assembly plants, four tourist hotel facilities, one watch band plant, a commercial feedmill, a lumber treating plant, and an oil refining company.

Because of limited local private capital, GEDA requested the Guam Legislature to authorize the issuance of a $45 million revenue bond. Proceeds from the bond sales would be used solely to purchase mortgages insured

by Federal and other government entities. By doing so, this would ease the limitation of funds earmarked for mortgage purchases by FNMA of approximately $11 million for Guam.

The revenue bond measure was passed by the Legislature in June 1969, hut has yet to be acted upon by the Governor.

If approved with a commitment to purchase by GEDA, local banks would • extend an interim financing for construction of needed facilities. These mortgages would eventually be sold to GEDA, thus easing out the tight money situation.

The Guam Legislature approved two appropriations for the benefit of bona fide farmers. One was $100,000 for agricultural loan purposes and the 26

other, for $50,000, was for an agricultural expense insurance fund to cover bona fide farmers in case of disaster.

With the tourist industry steadily increasing, four major hotels were un• der construction during the year. They are the Fujita Hotel, Guam Tokyu Hotel, Guam Hilton, and the Continental Hotel.

The Fujita Hotel was completed in February 1969 and is now in operation. The Guam Tokyu is scheduled to open its doors by November 1969, the Continental by August 1970, and the Guam Hilton by 1971. Upon completion of these four hotel projects, there will be approximately 1,000 additional rooms available for the visitors.

Imports during the year totaled 286,928 tons, 40,072 tons less than in the previous year. Exports totaled 75,105 tons, an increase of 3,603 tons over last year's total. Transshipments of cargo totaled 20,203 tons, a decrease of 6,368 tons compared with the previous year's total.

Carriers servicing Guam included the American President Line; Crusader Shipping Co.; Daiwa Navigation Co.; Dominion Far East Line, Ltd.; Micronesian Interocean Line, Inc.; Pacific Far East Line; Pacific Navigation System, Inc.; Saipan Shipping Co.; Maria Dolores Line, Ltd.; Dillingham Shipping Line, Ltd.; and the Indo China Navigation System.

The Department of Commerce's Economic Research Center initiated a program of standardization of data gathering, utilizing the latest techniques. Under this program, statistics are compiled on a monthly, quarterly, and annual basis. Computerized methods are used in compiling statistics, including the study of contract workers, income tax returns, and baggage declarations.

The Standard International Trade Classification System also has been im-

plemented in recording of imports and exports to and from Guam.

The 5-Year Socioeconomic Plan of Guam was completed by the Commerce Department during the year. It is a detailed analysis of business performance and income patterns, population trends, employment, education, and priority assignment of government expenditures .based on cost-output ratios.

The department also continued its regular publications of the "Quarterly Review of BusinessConditions," "Facts About Doing Business on Guam," and the annual "Business Directory."

The Department of Agriculture reported total local production of fruits and vegetables reached 2,230,493 pounds valued at $404,919. This represents an increase of 452,621 pounds ( valued at $95,249), or 24.1 percent over the previous year's production.

Total annual egg production reached 1.3 million dozens for an average of 108,750 dozens a month.

This is an increase of 23.6 percent over the 1968 rate of 88,000 dozens per month. The broiler production, however, decreased considerably from 69,000 pounds in fiscal 1968 to 36,000 in fiscal year 1969-a drop of 47.8 percent. The decrease in broiler output was attributed to the rather heavy emphasis in egg production.

Up 15 percent over last year, there were an estimated 85,000 layers on Guam during fiscal year 1969. Projections indicate there will be some 100,000 layers by the -end of the 1969 calendar year.

• In contrast to the increase in fruits, vegetables and egg production, there was a decline in the number of fulltime commercial and noncommercial farmers during fiscal year 1969. In the two previous years, there were approximately 250 full-time farmers while in the year under review the combined

number dropped to 192. Part-time farmers numbered 428 for this fiscal year, showing also a decrease of 197 compared to the preyious year's total of 625.

The Guam Farmers Cooperative Association reported . an increase in business volume, averaging $32,132 a month in calendar year 1968. This was $2,132 a month more than was transacted in the preyious year. The increase was largely attributed to the step-up of sales to the military on contract basis.

Major items sold were eggs, vegetables, feeds, fertilizers, and farm chemicals.

Subsequent to the enactment of Public Law 9-117 by the Guam Legislature, the Department of Land Management transferred a portion of the Y-Sengsong area in Dededo to the Department of Agriculture for the administration of agricultural leases. Totaling an area of 265 hectares, this tract of land has been apportioned to 71 lease applicants at an average of 3.72 hectares each.

The Agriculture's Extension ~ervice Division continued to disseminate proven and up-to-date agricultural information directly to the farmers through a variety of outdoor educational programs. During the year, it placed emphasis on poultry, swine, livestock, fruits, vegetables, and 4-H Club work.

The Division cosponsored with the J & G Motor Co. and the local Ford dealer a fann equipment demonstration at a private farm in Talofofo, an agricultural community in the southern part of Guam. The affair was attended by approximately 100 farmers who were given demonstration in the use of attachments such as mold-board, disc-plow, spring toothharrow, digger, rotavator, and others.

The Melon Fly Eradication Project assumed full operational status in 27

The Department of Agriculture has, as one of its major tasks, the effective control of crop pests and diseases. Photo shows a group of local farmers visiting the Agriculture's experimental farm to witness demonstration in pest control.

March 1969 with an initial release of 18 million sterile flies. Having gained proficiency in rearing techniques coupled wth improved physical and ecological conditions within the rearing facility, project personnel were able

28

to increase releases from about 18 to nearly 80 million sterile flies per month.

Field observations have indicated favorable results, and it is anticipated that by the end of 1969 Guam should be free from the melon fly pest.

LABOR The shortage of manpower remains a chronic problem, particularly in the skilled and semiskilled categories.

A total of 9,335 job openings were received by the Guam Employment Service from the Government of Guam, the Navy, Air Force and from private firms. Of the 9,335 job openings, 8,709 were filed for the importation of foreign nationals and for the extension of employment of alien contract workers.

The majority of job vacancies occurred in the constructi@n category-a total of 4,656. Service activities were next in demand with a call for 1,682 workers.

Professional, technical, and managerial-type job openings numbered 983.

Labor clearances were issued to the Immigration and Naturalization Service for 1,606 Civil Service vacancies, and for 1,000 reconstruction and rehabilitation workers.

Of the 170 petitions for alien workers, 97 were approved by the U.S. Labor Department's regional office in San Francisco, 38 were denied, and 35 were still pending.

Applications for jobs during fiscal year 1969 totaled 1,516, or 199 less than the previous fiscal year. These figures, however, do not include the 1,736 applications for Government of Guam positions.

The number of positions filled by job applicants totaled 687, a decrease of 172 compared to last year. It is noted that no placements were made in the farming, fishing, or forestry category, whereas 35 vacanices in agriculture were filled in fiscal year 68.

In the course of the year, 960 youths seeking employment were registered with the Guam Employment Service.

These included high school graduates, school dropouts and youths from underprivileged families. GES offered employment counseling, placement services, testing and referrals ,,to federally financed vocational training programs such as the Neighborhood Youth Corps, the Manpower Development and Training Act program, and the local Apprenticeship Training Program.

Fifty-seven school dropouts received special counseling services under the Neighborhood Youth Corps program with the objective of either encouraging them to return to school or of increasing their employability. Thirty-eight other youths from low-income families were given counseling services and part-time employment to enable them to remain in school until they graduated. In line with the summer program, 50 students were given financial assistance and training to improve their employment potentials. Some of them received remedial education and counseling in addition to work experience to encourage them to return to school after the summer vacation.

During the school summer vacation, 130 students registered with GES for summer employment. Of this number, 55 were placed with Government of Guam, with Federal Government agencies and with private industry. Under the Youth Opportunity Campaign program, 30 students from low-income families were placed with the U.S. Air 29

370-503 0 - 70 - 5

Force and with the Federal Aviation Agency.

More than 1,260 job referrals were submitted to the Community Action Agency by the various community centers. Of these, 598 were placed on income-generating jobs. Hmvever, 667 were not placed, due to delays in the recruitment process, the reluctance of some people to accept existing jobs, and in some cases to lack of transportation to and from work.

Job applications from veterans totaled 113. Of this number, 12 were successfully placed in employment.

Many veterans returned to their former employers while others chose to take up immediate employment.

Under the terms of the Work Incentive Program (WIN) during 4 months of operation a total of 60 AFDC welfare recipients were referred by the Department of Public Health

30

and Social Services. Of these, 18 were in training, 15 were employed, and 22 cases remained pending. Five cases were terminated. . An Arts and Crafts program sponsored by the Community Action Agency led to the training of 54 adults who reached production stage. The total gross sales from their products amounted to $3,589 during the period between April l and June 30, 1969.

Over 100 women participated in the sewing classes, and 46 were attending classes at the end of the fiscal year.

The rehabilitation of substandard horn~ of poor families was another of CAA's major goals during the year. A total of 37 homes under\\'ent major repair, and 26 more were under repair or construction. Still on the list awaiting repairs were 144 homes. This long waiting list was due to the difficulty in obtaining building materials.

PROTECTION OF LIFE AND PROPERTY To provide a more effective and consolidated rehabilitation program for both juvenile and adult offenders, the Department of Corrections was established during the fiscal year under Public· Law 9-208 enacted by the Ninth Guam Legislature.

Prior to this, the care and confinement of juvenile and adult offenders were handled by two separate departments-Public Safety and Public Health and Social Services.

To effectuate the intent of Public Law 9-208, the Governor issued an executive order transferring the Penal Division (penitentiary) and juvenile institution to the newly created Department of Corrections. The Penal Division had been a part of the Department of Public Safety and the juvenile institution was under the administration of the Department of Public Health and Social Services.

In line with the new concept in penalogy, the Department of Corrections places heavy emphasis on care and services conducive to the rehabilitation of the inmates. This may be achieved through a variety of programs for individual education, training in vocational skills and work experience.

To carry out these functions, the Department of Corrections is composed of four divisions: Youth Correctional Facility, Clinical and Rehabilitation Services, Guam Penitentiary, and the Administrative Servces.

The Youth Correctional Facility provides protective custody, treatment, and care, and programs designed to

assist juvenile offenders, both male and female, to overcome their antisocial attitudes and behaviors an_d return to society as useful citizens.

The Guam Penitentiary provides confinement and rehabilitation services to adult offenders remanded to its custody by the District Court or Island Courts of Guam. Federal prisoners are confined in accordance with an agreement between the Government of Guam and the U.S. Department of Justice under a reimbursable cost arrangement.

Treatment and rehabilitative programs are provided by the Division of Rehabilitation and Clinical Services for both adult ;md juvenile offenders. In addition to medical, social and psychological services, the Division also has programs designed to upgrade the inmates' educational and vocational capabilities. These programs include work release in which inmates eligible for parole or release within 6 months are allowed to engage in gainful employmenf; and the work furlough for inmates not eligible for release or parole within 6 months in which they are given "on-the-job training" in carpentry, masonry, painting, handicraft, cabinetmaking, etc. In addition, the Division provides vocational and academic instruction programs.

At the time of transfer to the Department of Corrections, the penitentiary had 39 inmates in custody. After the transfer in November 1968 to the end of the fiscal year under review, it

The Civil Defense office went on alert 20 times during the year as the territory was threatened by high winds.

Most of the storms, ho·wever, veered away from the island and caused no damage or injury.

PARKS AND RECREATION Fiscal year 1969 marked another major development in the area of outdoor recreation with the beginning of construction of a recreational park in Agana, the Island's capital. The overall plan includes the building of a $250,000 olympic-size swimming pool, boating facilities, tennis, and basketball courts, baseball fields, bath house, and other 'recreational facilities.

The bepartment of Land Management, under its Parks and Recreation Resources Dh,ision, developed and maintained 43 sites. These include a Botanical Garden, as well as parks in Dededo, Agat-Sumay, and Merizo Bay. It also includes the Guam Memorial Hospital Park, Government House Park, Skinner Plaza, Paseo De Susana ( a major recreational and sports facilities), Talofofo Beach, Nimitz Beach, Ipao Beach and Park, and the historic Plaza De Espana in Agana.

During the year, Land Management maintained 294.4 acres of public grounds used for parks and recreational purposes at an average cost of $393 per· acre.

A total of 470 hunting licenses was issued by the Fish and Wildlife Division, Department of Agriculture, during the year. The hunters were provided with one bird, a year-long feral pig, and two deer hunting seasons.

The Air Force boosted the hunting activities by allowing both civilians and military personnel to participate in special regulated deer hunts within

the Andersen base limits, where the deer thrived all year long. Initiated in August 1968, the weekend hunts provided the hunters with over 3,000-man hours of recreation in which 118 deer were bagged by the end of the fiscal year.

These special hunts, held on the last Saturday and Sunday of each month, were scheduled to continue. The monthly deer counts conducted in the base area indicated a large deer population near the runways.

Water-oriented recreational activities increased steadily, with 355 power boats registered during the year with the U.S. Coast Guard on Guam.

A South American fresh water game fish called Tucunare, introduced into the 175-acre Fena Lake in F~ruary 1968, have spawned and appeared to be firmly established in the lake. By November 1968, at least three distinct sizesof Tucunare were seen in the lake and spillway catchment basin. To develop the fresh water game fishing potential of the island, young Tucunare were also transplanted into one of the large stream systems in the southcentral part of the island.

The Guam Recreation Commission, the island's major sports activity organizer for the civilian community, sponsored 14 leagues during the year.

These activities attracted 4,046 participants, of which about 70 percent were males and females between the ages of 13 and 17. The leagues included baseball, softball, volleyball, tennis, and basketball. They were conducted at 37

SELECTIVESERVICE SYSTEM Estab~ished on Guam in 1951, the local Selective Service System's primary function is the procurement of manpower for the Armed Forces. It has an administration staff of six and two boards responsible for the registration, classification, selection, and delivery of registrants for induction.

In addition, the local boards assist in recruiting services for both Regular and Reserve, grant deferments to persons attending colleges, universities, and apprenticeship programs, maintain an inventory of manpower resources and report to the Reserve Components on the availability of Standby Reservists.

During fiscal year 1969, the local Selective Service System processed and delivered 171 registrants for induction into the Armed Forces. This brings to 2,364 the total number of registrants who have been inducted into the Army,

Navy, and Marine Corps since January 1952.

As of June 1969, the territory has a total of 17,022 Selective Service registrants. These include 2,790 presently serving in the Armed Forces, 621 in classes I-A and I-A-O, 1,166 qualified for military service only in time of war or national emergency, and 5,088 who were over the age of liability for military service.
