GOVERNOR TAWES: Definitely, I think it would
|
2
|
be more effective if more power was placed in the hands
|
3
|
of the executive.

|
JUDGE ADKINS: Would you, for example, favor
|
5
|
having such jobs as the Superintendent of Schools, the
|
6
|
Superintendent of Forests and Parks directly responsible
|
7
|
to the Chief Executive instead. of responsible to a par-
|
8
|
ticular board as they now are?
|
9
|
GOVERNOR TAWES: Yes, I would. For instance,
|
10
|
now, the Executive Director of Forests and Parks is direct-
|
11
|
ly responsible to the Governor, the Governor appoints him.
|
12
|
Now, that law was changed just two or three
|
13
|
years ago.
|
14
|
JUDGE ADKINS: It was changed?
|
16
|
GOVERNOR TAWES: Yes.

|
JUDGE ADKINS: Do you feel that there is any
|
17
|
impediment to your proper carrying out of your programs
|
18
|
in having to work with boards which have staggered terms,
|
19
|
as, for example, the Board of Education?
|
20
|
GOVERNOR TAWES: No, there hasn't been any
|
21
|
real problem in that area, in that particular area.
