Appellant Raines is a defendant in a suit to determine paternity. See Code Ann. Ch. 74-3. Appellant denied being the father and objected to being ordered to submit to an "HLA" blood test. See Code Ann. 74-306. 1 Appellant claims that Code Ann. 74-306 violates the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution and Art. I, Sec. I, Par. XIII of the Georgia Constitution (Code Ann. 2-113). The trial court ruled that the aforesaid code section does not violate either the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution 2 or Art. I, Sec. I, Par. XIII of the Georgia Constitution. 3 We affirm. Requiring appellant to submit to a blood test for the purpose of proving or disproving paternity, pursuant to Code Ann. 74-306, would not compel appellant to be a witness against himself within the meaning of the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution, Schmerber v. California, 384 U. S. 757, 760--765 (86 SC 1826, 16 LE2d 908), nor would such procedure compel him "to give testimony tending in any manner to incriminate himself" within the meaning of the Georgia Constitution. Strong v. State, 231 Ga. 514, 519 ( 202 SE2d 428) (1973). Creamer v. State, 229 Ga. 511 (192 SE2d 350) (1972). 4Charles J. Driebe, James E. Thompson, Harry A. Osborne, Arthur K.
