addresses and other identifying information of juvenile offenders in the
agency's juvenile delinquent system and of dependent and neglected children in
any facilities operated by the Texas Youth Commission (V.T.C.A., Texas Family
Code, Section 58.005); photographs where individual children in Youth
Commission facilities can be identified are also confidential unless the child
granted permission to allow the photograph to be taken (V.T.C.A., Texas Family
Code, Section 58.005); psychological or psychiatric reports and evalutations

for research. Any correspondence with the family concerning payments for a
patient's care in a state mental hospital is confidential under V.T.C.A, Health
and Safety Code, Mental Health and Mental Retardation, 611.004. The records may
be requested for research under the provisions of the Public Information Act
(V.T.C.A., Government Code, Chapter 552). The researcher may request an
interview with an archivist or submit a request by mail, fax, or email
including enough description and detail about the information requested to
enable the archivist to accurately identify and locate the information
requested. If our review reveals information that may be excepted by the Public
Information Act, we are obligated to seek an open records decision from the
Attorney General on whether the records can be released. The Public Information
Act allows the Archives ten working days after receiving a request to make this
determination. The Attorney General has 45 working days to render a decision.
Alternately, the Archives can inform you of the nature of the potentially
excepted information and if you agree, that information can be redacted or
removed and you can access the remainder of the records.
Materials do not circulate, but may be used in the State Archives

Agency History
The Texas State Board of Control was created in 1919 by the
Thirty-sixth Texas Legislature (Senate Bill 147, Regular Session), becoming
operational on January 1, 1920. The Board was composed of three members,
serving six-year overlapping terms, appointed by the Governor with concurrence
of the Senate. The Board elected a chair. The legislation which created the
Board also abolished several agencies and offices, transferring their duties to
the Board of Control. Offices abolished were the State Expert Printer, State
Board of Public Printing, State Purchasing Agent, Superintendent of Public
Buildings and Grounds, State Inspector of Masonry, and the Boards of Managers
of each of the state eleemosynary institutions.
The Board of Control had numerous responsibilities. The Board served
as the purchasing agent for state departments, institutions, and agencies,
approving requisition orders, purchasing supplies, contracting for printing,
and transferring supplies between agencies, etc. The Board also had control and
supervision of the state eleemosynary institutions (state schools, hospitals
and sanatoriums, orphanages, juvenile training schools), the Alabama-Coushatta
Indian Reservation, and the State Cemetery. It established rules and
regulations for the state eleemosynary institutions and established hospital
districts for the state hospitals. Additionally, the Board had joint
supervision and maintenance of certain historical state parks (including San
Jacinto, Goliad, and Fannin State Parks); and had charge of the custody and
maintenance of the Capitol and other State office buildings and their adjoining
grounds. In this capacity the Board contracted for all construction, repairs,
and improvements made for the eleemosynary institutions and other state
agencies; designed and prepared the plans and specifications used in
construction projects and machinery and equipment repairs; leased public
grounds; rented offices and buildings when needed for state agencies; sold
property of the state when no longer needed; and prepared the biennial
appropriation budget for the state. These were the primary functions of the
Board. Additional duties included administering child welfare activities;
supervising the printing and manufacture of cigarette tax stamps; providing
photostat (and later microfilm) services and typewriter repair services to
state agencies; and maintaining the Bureau of Records as a temporary depository
for the permanent records of the state. The Texas Relief Commission was added
to the Board in 1934 (House Bill 1, 43rd Legislature, 3rd Called Session) and
the Old Age Assistance Commission was added in 1936 (House Bill 8, 44th
Legislature, 3rd Called Session). In some instances Board chairmen or members
were appointed to or served on other state boards or commissions. In the 1930s
the Chairman of the Board, Claude Teer, was appointed to the Locating and
Building Board of the State Tuberculosis Sanatorium for Negroes (upon
completion, this sanatorium was turned over to the Board of Control). In the
1940s, Hall Logan, Board member and later Board chairman, also served as the
Acting Director of the Postwar Economic Planning Commission.
Over the years, many of the duties of the Board were transferred to
other agencies. In 1939 the 46th Legislature (Senate Bill 36, Regular Session)
created the Texas State Department of Public Welfare, transferring welfare and
assistance responsibilities of the Board to that Department. In 1949 control of
all eleemosynary institutions was transferred to the Texas Board for State
Hospitals and Special Schools and the Texas Youth Development Council (House
Bill 1, 51st Legislature, Regular Session). Additional legislation in 1949
(House Bill 120, 51st Legislature, Regular Session) transferred control and
custody of all state historical parks, except the San Jacinto State Park and
Memorial Tower, Fannin State Park, and the Battleship Texas, to the control and
custody of the Texas State Parks Board. Legislation in 1951 transferred
preparation of the biennial appropriation budget and all related budget
functions to the Governor's Office (Senate Bill 413, 52nd Legislature, Regular
Session).
The Board initially established several divisions to handle its
responsibilities--Division of Purchasing; Division of Public Printing; Division
of Auditing; Division of Eleemosynary Institutions; Division of Design,
Construction and Maintenance; and Division of Estimates and Appropriations. The
Division of Child Welfare and the Centennial Division were later added and
others were created (and consolidated or abolished) as needed. As the Board
lost many of its responsibilities in the 1940s and 1950s, many of these
divisions were abolished. By the mid-1950s the Board's divisions reflected its
restructured roles of purchasing-related activities; construction, maintenance,
and repairs; oversight; and other duties. In 1956 the Board was organized into
the Main Division, Purchasing Division, Division of Printing, Claims Division,
Design and Construction Division, Division of Buildings and Grounds, and
Cigarette Stamp Tax Purchaser (not actually a division). By 1970 additional
divisions reflected the Board's role of providing security and centralized
services to state agencies. These included providing telephone and mail
services, operating a centralized supply store, and performing property
inventories. Divisions in 1972 were the Purchasing Division, Centralized
Services Division, Automatic Data Processing Division, Building and Property
Services Division, and the Security Division.
In 1953 the Board of Control was reorganized (Senate Bill 77, 53rd
Legislature, Regular Session). The Board still maintained three members,
appointed by the Governor to six year overlapping terms, but the chair was now
appointed by the Governor. Also, an Executive Director was hired to handle
administrative and other duties. The duties and responsibilities of the Board
remained the same. The Board of Control was abolished in 1979 (House Bill 1673,
66th Legislature, Regular Session); its duties and responsibilities were
transferred to the newly created Texas State Purchasing and General Services
Commission. In 1991, the agency was renamed the General Services Commission. In
2001, the agency wasabolished and replaced by the Building and Procurement
Commission, with some functions transferring to other agencies (Senate Bill
311, 77th Legislature, Regular Session). In 2007 the agency was renamed the
Texas Facilities Commission and its functions not related to state facilities
were transferred to the Texas Comptroller's Office (House Bill, 3560, 80th
Legislature, Regular Session). The Texas Facilities Commission retained the
functions of building construction and maintenance and purchasing for state
facilities/agencies.

Scope and Contents of the Records
The primary functions of the Texas State Board of Control were
controling and supervising the state eleemosynary institutions (state schools,
hospitals and sanitoriums, orphanages, juvenile training schools), the
Alabama-Coushatta Indian Reservation, the Confederate Homes, and the State
Cemetery; serving as the purchasing agent for state institutions and agencies;
having joint supervision and maintenance of certain historical parks; and
having charge of the custody and maintenance of the Capitol and other state
office buildings and grounds. Additional short-term duties have included the
administration of child welfare, operation of the Texas Relief Commission,
preparation of the state's budget, and operation of the Bureau of Records. This
series consists of several groups of records of the members of the Texas State
Board of Control. Types of materials present include incoming and outgoing
correspondence of the Board chair, Board members, or the secretary of the
Board; memoranda; monthly or other reports from divisions of the Board; audit
and status reports from eleemosynary institutions and state agencies;
statistical compilations; parole statements from the state juvenile schools;
copies of Board minutes and orders; copies of minutes from other agencies;
copies of legislation; press releases; questionnaires and survey results;
invoices; brochures and other printed material; photographs; building
specifications; plats; and stenographer's shorthand notebooks. Dates covered
are 1885-1890, 1917-1953 and undated, with the bulk dating 1920-1953.
The records reflect the routine activities of the Board, with letters
concerning administration, appointments, patient admittance, transfers,
paroles, and discharges at the state juvenile schools and state eleemosynary
institutions; construction and maintenance of state facilities; and purchasing,
budget, and appropriation concerns of state institutions and agencies. Other
topics include the establishment of the State Department of Public Welfare and
the activities of the Board divisions which were later transferred to this
Department--the Division of Child Welfare, the Relief Commission Division, and
the Old Age Assistance Commission; investigations at eleemosynary institutions;
the establishment and early operations of agencies taking over operations of
the juvenile schools and other eleemosynary institutions--Board for State
Hospitals and Special Schools and the Youth Development Council; the
establishment of several eleemosynary institutions, including the Brady State
School and several tuberculosis sanatoriums; the establishment and early
operations of several state historical parks; projects for the Texas
Centennial; and Board actions related to World War II, including transfer of
surplus military property after the war.
Two groups of Board member records, those of Senator Tom DeBerry and
T. B. Warden, are largely concerned with the purchasing activities of the
Board. The various groups of chairmen's files cover a broad spectrum of Board
activities. Correspondents include Board members and employees, eleemosynary
institutions, state agencies, businesses, federal agencies, and private
individuals. Reports of institutions and agencies submitted to the board or
prepared by the board for other entities can also be found in the series
Reports and the series Contracts and related records,. The latter series also
contains correspondence about the contracts, often directed to the chair of the
board. Additional instititutional audit reports by the Board are in the series
Institutional Accounting Division. Additional
orders issued by the board (1946-1949) are in the series Actions of the Board; the series Eleemosynary Division, Administrative files has some
Board orders (1942-1943) concerning eleemosynary institutions.
These records are maintained as they were received, as the files of
specific chairmen or Board members, although some contain the files of several
members. Existing arrangement schemes within each group, when present, were
kept. Most chairmen or members tended to segregate the eleemosynary files from
those of other state institutions and agencies. Materials were usually foldered
by state agency or institution, alphabetically for general correspondence, and
by topic or individual correspondents--usually Board members and staff--for
general/administrative files.
This series is part of the
Texas State Board of Control records
finding aid. It was removed from that finding aid due to the electronic file
size limitations imposed by the online finding aid web site (TARO). If you are
reading this in paper, the overall Board of Control finding aid is found at a
separate divider within the binder.
To prepare this preliminary inventory, the described materials were
cursorily reviewed to delineate series, to confirm the accuracy of contents
lists, to provide an estimate of dates covered, and determine record types.

Commission Division. A few plats and photographs are filed with the
correspondence. See the series Centennial
Division, for more records of the Board's centennial activities. See the
series Relief Commission Division for more records
of this division's activities. The records of the State
Building Commission, Capitol area property appraisals and value
analyses, contain photographs of the construction of the San Jacinto
monument.

12.5 cubic ft.
These files contain a variety of materials, including memoranda,
correspondence, reports of institutions, testimony and reports from
investigations, parole statements, questionnaires, copies of orders of the
Board, rosters from the Adjutant General's Department, monthly reports of the
Teacher Retirement System (TRS), minutes of the TRS Board of Trustees,
photographs, stenographer's shorthand notebooks, and routine administrative
files. Dates covered are 1941-1947 and undated, with the bulk dating 1942-1946.
These are the files of Weaver H. Baker, often called Judge Baker, chairman of
the Texas State Board of Control. The files cover the period Baker served as
chairman of the Board, 1942-1946, with a few items from 1947. A few reports and
parole forms from 1941 are also present.
Topics covered include the investigations at several
eleemosynary institutions, annual seminars in 1944 (Buchanan Lake) and 1945
(Inks Lake Dam) between the Board members and superintendents of eleemosynary
institutions, the proposed establishment of a tuberculosis hospital at Fort
Ringgold, a survey of county judges about the state eleemosynary institutions,
the Board's part in the war effort, actions of the Judge Advocate General's
Office during World War II (Baker served as a Lieutenant Colonel in this
office), and routine actions of the Board, including administration of
eleemosynary institutions (state schools, hospitals and sanatoriums,
orphanages, juvenile training schools); purchasing and requisition activities;
construction, remodeling and repairs of state facilities; and budget and
appropriation concerns of state institutions and agencies.
Arrangement of the Records
There are several batches of records within this group, arranged
as received from the agency. First is a large group of files from eleemosynary
institutions, 1941-1947. This batch is broken up into several sets of files by
type. The next batch contains general correspondence files--a set of
alphabetical correspondence, followed by general files with employees and other
individuals, state and federal agencies, and others, including a group of
military-related files, and Teachers Retirement System files. Last are copies
of Board orders for 1942-1947. Files within each group are generally in
alphabetical order by the name of the institution or agency.

Chairmen Lanning, Logan, Ashley,
and Baker files,
1939-1953, undated,
bulk
1946-1949,
12 cubic ft.
Types of materials present in these files include
correspondence, memoranda, reports and testimony from investigations, press
releases, statistical compilations, parole statements, copies of minutes from
the Youth Development Council, architectural plans (mostly copies),
stenographer's shorthand notebooks, and routine administrative files. Dates
covered are 1939-1953 and undated, with the bulk dating 1946-1949. This set of
files seems to have been the central administrative files for four chairmen of
the Texas State Board of Control--Weaver Baker, 1942-1946; Carlos Ashley,
1946-1947; Hall M. Logan, 1947-1949; and R.C. Lanning, 1950-1951. Most of the
records cover the time period 1946-1949--during Ashley's and Logan's terms.
Topics covered include investigations at several eleemosynary
institutions, establishment of the Brady State School, acquiring World War II
military surplus property for eleemosynary institutions, establishment of the
Board's successors for control of the eleemosynary institutions--the Youth
Development Council and the Board for State Hospitals and Special Schools, and
routine actions of the Board.
Arrangement of the Records
There are several batches of files within this group, as
received from the agency. First are correspondence and topical files of
eleemosynary institutions, followed by a set of files from the juvenile schools
(includes some investigation files) and related youth agencies. Following this
are files from the Texas School for the Deaf (TSD), including some
investigative files. Files from investigations at TSD and other institutions
are filed next followed by surplus property files. Correspondence files of
historical state parks, state agencies and colleges follow these, with a set of
general correspondence, topical files, and administrative files ending this
group of records. Within each group, most files are arranged alphabetically by
the name of the institution or agency.

bulk
1947-1953,
3.5 cubic ft.
Types of materials present include correspondence, memoranda,
copies of Board orders, contracts, invoices, and brochures and other printed
materials, dating 1885-1890, 1940-1953, primarily 1947-1953. These are the
files of T. B. Warden, a member of the Texas State Board of Control. Some files
contain earlier letters from other Board members or chairman, primarily Harry
Knox (1942-1945), and are probably in this series because of their
purchasing/requisition focus. Some of the correspondence is addressed to or
sent out by T. B. Warden; however a number of the letters are directed to the
Board or the chairman and were referred to Warden.
Most of the files concern the purchasing activities of the
Board, including equipment purchases and repairs, buying routine supplies, and
getting bids for contracts of various types. A group of files is present
concerning construction activities undertaken during this time period. Other
topics concern erecting monuments on the Capitol grounds, repairing and
remodeling the Governor's Mansion (includes a complete inventory of furnishings
in 1949), and the purchase of school buses for school districts receiving
equalization aid. Included with records of the Capitol buildings and grounds
are reports from the Capitol Furnishing Board, 1885-1890.
Arrangement of the Records
The files are arranged alphabetically and foldered by agency,
topic, individual, or general letter, as received from the agency.
