appropriated to institutions, organizations, and agencies, excepting
hospitals, are paid on a per capita basis at the rates, and subject to
the rules and regulations, established by the State Board of Public
Welfare (Acts 1949, Ch. 108).

The Department administers the child care laws with regard to the
placement of children in this State. It licenses agencies and institu-
tions having the care and custody of minors.

The State Department of Public Welfare is responsible for the
supervision, direction and control of the four State training schools.
In developing the program within each training school, including
provision for after-care supervision, the Department establishes rules
and regulations, standards of care, policies of admission, transfer and
discharge, and may order changes in the policies, conduct or manage-
ment of the four State training schools. Subject to these limitations,
each of the schools is under the general management of its Board of
Managers. The Governor appoints nine members for staggered terms
of six years, so arranged that the terms of at least three members
expire every two years (Code 1947 Supp., Art. 88A, sec. 18; Acts 1949
Chs. 314, 692).
