The Department shall be under the direction of a Director of Civil Defense, hereinafter called the "Director," who shall be appointed as prescribed by law. The Director shall have direct responsibility for the organization, administration and operation of the Department, subject to the direction and control of the appointing authority, and shall receive such salary as may be fixed from time to time by the appointing authority. The Director may, within the limits of the amount appropriated therefor, appoint such experts, clerks and other assistants as the work of the Department may require and may remove them and may make such expenditures as may be necessary to execute effectively the purposes of Acts 1950, Chapter 639.
