GENERAL STATEMENT
The bill as reported to the Senate exceeds the bill as it passed the
House by the sum of $1,601,834,986. However, this increase is
misleading since many items of appropriation including well over a
billion dollars for military construction were deleted on the floor of
the House on points of order. The authorizing legislation on military
construction had passed both Houses of Congress and was awaiting
the signature of the President which made the appropriation subject
to a point of order. Other authorizing bills were in various stages of
legislative process. The amount of the bill as reported to the Senate,
when compared with the bill as reported to the House by the House
Appropriations Committee, is as follows:
Amount of bill as reported to House------------------------ $1, 648, 876, 128
Amount of bill as reported to Senate------------------------ 1, 826, 111, 614
Increase of Senate committee bill over bill reported to
House------------------------------------------- 177,235,486
In addition, the Senate committee considered budget estimates in
excess of the estimates considered by the House in the amount of
$195,565,204.

CHAPTER I
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH SERVICE
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
The committee recommends approval of the supplemental request
for authorization to construct a building at Miles City, Mont. The
new building is to replace an equipment repair shop which was de-
stroyed by fire. The following language is added to the bill:
Not to exceed $5,000 of funds appropriated under this head in the Department of
Agriculture and Farm Credit Administration Appropriation Act, 1956, for research,
shall be available for construction of a building at the United States Range Livestock
Experiment Station, Miles City, Montana.
The committee recommends the approval of an estimate sent
directly to the Senate which requests authority to prepare plans and
specifications and to conduct surveys to determine costs for facilities
suitable for the conduct of animal disease research and control work.
On July 1, 1955, this research work was discontinued in the Depart-
ment's Administration Building. This action was based on recom-
mendations of a survey made by a committee of scientists from out-
side the Department who found existing facilities lacking in safeguards
to protect research workers.
The recommended authorization submitted in the estimate follows:
For preparation of plans and specifications for construction of facilities for animal
disease research and control, and for surveys to determine the cost of acquiring and
altering facilities which may be made suitable for such work, including employment
pursuant to the second sentence of section 706 (a) of the Organic Act of 1944 (5 U. S. C.
574), as amended by section 15 of the Act of August 2, 1946 (5 U. S. C. 55a),
$500,000, to remain available until expended.
The committee recommends the restoration of the section providing
that not to exceed $5 million of the unused balances under the 1954
agricultural conservation program be made available during fiscal
year 1956 for emergency wind erosion control practices.
The committee is advised that $2,500,000 of the amount recom-
mended will be used to reimburse the President's Disaster Relief
Fund for funds advanced to pay for emergency tillage practices.
The following provision is recommended by the committee:
Not to exceed $5,000,000 of the appropriation under the head "Agricultural Con-
servation Program Service", in the Department of Agriculture and Farm Credit
Administration Appropriation Act, 1955, shall be available for the purposes specified
under the head "Agricultural conservation program", in the Second Supplemental
Appropriation Act, 1955, and shall be merged with the amount provided therein.

The committee recommends an additional $33,000 requested in

H. R. 122 which was passed by Congress on July 11, 1955, amending
the Commodity Exchange Act by extending its provisions to onions.

The committee recommends the amount of $65,000, the estimate
sent to the Senate. This is to provide funds for legal services under
the provisions of H. R. 5891, 84th Congress, which covers mining
claims on land under the administration of the Secretary.
The bill has passed Congress and the appropriation of funds is
recommended in accordance with the estimate:
COMMODITY CREDIT CORPORATION
The committee recommends the restoration of the following section
in the bill to authorize the position of Sales Manager for the Corpora-
tion in grade GS-17:
For the purpose of assisting the Commodity Credit Corporation in selling its
agricultural commodities, the position of sales manager is hereby authorized in grade 17
of the General Schedule of the Classification Act of 1949, as amended, in accordance
with the standards and procedures of that Act.
RURAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
In view of the denial by the committee of the request for additional
loan authorizations for low income and part-time farmers all other
items contained in the bill for the proposed program are recom-
mended to be stricken.

CHAPTER II
DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE AND RELATED AGENCIES
For the Department of Commerce and Related Agencies, the com-
mittee considered estimates aggregating $157,154,000, and recom-
mends appropriation of $83,004,000, a reduction of $74,150,000. The
amount recommended is $80,245,000 more than the $2,759,000 in
this chapter of the bill as passed by the House.
The estimates considered by the Senate which were not presented
to the House totaled $113,900,000, for which items totaling $52,430,000
are recommended in the bill. As to the items considered by
the House, and for which the House committee recommended
$29,879,000, the bill as reported to the Senate would provide
$30,574,000, an increase above the House committee recommendations
of $695,000.

Committee recommendation--------------------------------- ------------- 0
1, 200, 1,200,000
The committee recommends $1,200,000, the amount of the estimate,
for additional funds for the airway traffic services of CAA in fiscal
year 1956.
Testimony before the committee indicated that the workload in
airway traffic-control centers, airport control towers, and related
communications facilities had already increased 15 percent beyond the
increase predicted at the end of fiscal year 1956, and far exceeds that
on which the original budget estimate was based.
It was categorically stated that the amount requested was not in
any sense intended to substitute for the funds for operation of the
interstate airways communication centers which were directed to be
continued during fiscal year 1956; but that studies were still in progress
to attain the expressed wish of Congress, and to finance continued
operation of those stations previously scheduled for closing during the
current fiscal year, by absorption of the added costs by other means.

The committee recommends $2,600,000, the full amount of the
estimate and the amount in the bill as passed by the House, for the
construction of facilities at Washington National Airport to relieve
to some extent the congestion now evident.
It is not believed that the additional construction will provide,.
however, more than a-temporary solution; testimony was to the effect
that the relief provided would carry only into 1957 at the present rate
of air traffic growth.
Pending the completion of action on any of the proposals for a
longer range solution, the committee recommends that there be initi-
ated immediately studies of the possibilities in extending the utility
of the existing facilities and those which are planned for construction
with these funds by the removal of Military Air Transport Service
aircraft and supporting activities to another airfield in the area.

The amount included is required to pay for increases, for uniformed
members of the staff of the United States Merchant Marine Academy,
which are mandatory under the Career Incentive Act of 1955. Al-
though the Appropriations Committee of the House of Representa-
tives recommended $100,000 for this purpose; the need for $115,000
is based upon a position-by-position computation of the cost of the
increased rates.

vessels than was contemplated in the 1956 budget. In keeping with
the accelerated program, additional work in inspection and the audit
of contractors' books is required in excess of that which was estimated
earlier. For this purpose, the committee recommends a $180,000
increase in the limitation for administrative expenses, to a total of
$330,000.
INTER-AMERICAN HIGHWAY

Supplemental estimate---------------------------------------- 49, 730, 000
House allowance---------------------------------------------- 0
Committee recommendation----------------------------------- 49, 730, 000
Since the consideration of the appropriation for fiscal year 1956,
Public Law 129 has been approved (the act of July 1, 1955). The
committee, in its report on the regular appropriation for fiscal year
1956 (Department of Commerce and Related Agencies Appropriation
Act, 1956), said:
Inter-American Highway.-The committee recommends an appropriation of
$25,250,000 for the continuance of the construction of the Inter-American Highway
which is the full amount of the authorized but unappropriated balance.
It is the sense of the committee that the interests of this Nation, our friendship
for the neighbor nations, the value of surface access to the Panama Canal, and
many other mutual benefits dictate early completion of this highway.
In recommending $49,730,000 for this purpose, the committee is,
in the strongest terms, reiterating the views which were stated in the
previous report. Under this appropriation, the highway should be
completed in 3 years.
SALARIES AND EXPENSES
1955 appropriation------------------------------------------- $24,940,000
1956 appropriation------------------------------------------- 32000000
Supplemental estimate--------------------------------------- 3,000,000
House allowance--------------------------------------------- 0
Committee recommendation---------------------------------- 1,500,000
The committee recommends $1,500,000, half the amount of the
estimate, for additional funds for research into methods of bettering
hurricane and tornado predictions. The amount recommended will
be sufficient to cover the major part of the research operations. It
is felt that, if additional equipment for research is required, it may
be procured with the funds provided by the regular 1956 appropria-
tion, in excess of the budget estimate, for the procurement of weather
observation and research equipment in the Department of Commerce
and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 1956. The funds which
were provided in that act were to remain available for a period of
4 years because all could not be obligated at this time; the committee
can see no objection to the use of a part of the amount for expedited
procurement of material now available which will hasten progress to
more accurate predictions.

The committee recommends $2,700,000 in appropriations for the
administrative expenses of the Small Business Administration, the full
amount of the budget estimate and $680,000 more than was allowed
by the House appropriations committee. In addition, the coin-
mittee recommends authority to transfer a total of $3,400,000 from
loan funds to this account to cover the cost of loan service activities-
the same amount for this purpose as was recommended by the House
committee, and the amount which was recommended in the estimate.
The appropriated amount is provided to cover the agency's services
in behalf of small business, in the form of management aids and tech-
nical assistance and in securing set-asides of Government contracts for
smaller firms. It is proposed to decentralize a greater proportion of
this work to the regional offices and to decrease the Washington office
staff during the coming fiscal year.

25, 000, 000
The committee recommends the full amount of the estimate,
$25,000,000, for the revolving fund, which is the source of the small
business loans made by this agency. This amount will provide for a
continued operation of the loan program at present level, and leave
a relatively small amount of the fund available to meet contingencies.
Out of this fund, new loans in fiscal year 1956 are expected to total
1,100.
The House Appropriations Committee recommended the full
amount, but because of a, lack of basic authorization, the item was
stricken from the bill on a point of order-as were many other items
in this bill-during its consideration on the floor of the House.
UNITED STATES TARIFF COMMISSION
In previous years, the appropriations for the United States Tariff
Commission have been included in the Independent Offices Appro-
priation Acts. This year, for the first time, the agency's funds are
provided in the Department of Commerce and Related Agencies
Appropriation Act. The Commission requested, and the committee
recommends, a provision which is similar in purpose to a general
provision which was carried this year, and has been carried for a
number of years previously, in the Independent Offices Appropriation
Act, authorizing the use of funds which are available for travel to be
available for the expenses of attendance at meetings concerned with
the business of the agency.
By law, such expenses are not payable from appropriations unless
such use is specifically provided for in an appropriation act, or in
other law.

The committee has approved $3 million for planning and $4 million
for roads and purchase of site, including not to exceed $350,000 for
land purchase, if needed when final decision on the selection of the
site is made. The committee believes that further careful study and
investigation should be made before the site is finally determined.
There is much objection locally to the proposed Langley site. In
addition, the traffic problem may be difficult. The committee believes
that the proposed construction of the building should be commenced.
Therefore, planning money is included. Money for the George
Washington Memorial Parkway should be used only if the Langley
site is finally chosen. The committee believes that a proper site
can be acquired for loss than $350,000 and so has put that limitation
in the appropriation.
(The recommended language is as follows:)
CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY
For the preparation of detail plans and specifications of a Central Intelligence
Agency headquarters installation and for other purposes as authorized by title IV
of the Act of July 15, 1955 (Public Law 161), to remain available until expended
$7,000,000, of which $4,000,000 shall be available for transfer to the National Capital
Planning Commission and to the Department of the Interior for acquisition of land
and construction to extend the (reorge Washington Memorial Parkway: Provided,
That if it is determined such headquarters installation will not be constructed at the
Research Station of the Bureau of Public Roads at Langley, Fairfax County, Vir-

The Senate committee considered for the Department of the Army
military construction items totaling $545 million, the budget estimate,
to be derived by transfer from "Procurement and production, Army."
This was the funding necessary to provide a program totaling
$566,533,000. The House committee provided funds, by transfer,
totaling $483,612,000. The entire appropriation was stricken on the
House floor on a point of order. The Senate committee recommends
an appropriation by transfer of $486,427,000, which is an increase of

$2,815,000 over the amount recommended by the House committee,
and is $58,573,000 less than the estimates.
In making this recommendation the Senate committee restored to
the bill the following items:
Command and General Staff College, Fort Leavenworth,.-The budget
estimate for this item was $8,615,000. The House committee reduced
this amount by $5,433,000. Total restoration was requested. The
Senate committee granted an additional $200,000 for planning of the
academic building, or a total of $3,382,000.
Black Hills Ordnance Depot, Black Hills, S. Dak.-The budget
estimate for this item was $1,428,000, which the House committee
reduced by $1,350,000. The Senate committee recommends the
restoration of this amount for family housing.
Fort Huachuca, Ariz.-The budget estimate for this item was
$5,913,000. The House committee reduced this by $1,265,000. The
Senate committee recommends that this amount be restored.
Certain specific deletions in the requests were made by the Senate.
The Senate committee did not approve the request for the West Coast
Ammunition Terminal, Calif., amounting to $3,209,000. This item
was disallowed also by the House committee.
In addition the Senate committee recommends an overall reduction
for the Department of the Army of $48,735,000 in the belief that such
reduction will not jeopardize the orderly program of the Department
and that recurrent slippages should be taken into consideration.
No restoration of funds was requested and none granted for certain
minor items at Oakland Army Base, Fort Riley, Fort Benning, and
Fort Lewis.
With these cited exceptions the full program as justified by the
Department of the Army was approved.

443,278,300
The Senate committee considered, for the Department of the Navy,
military construction items totaling $528,550,000, the budget esti-
mate. This is the funding necessary to provide a program totaling
$614,279,700. The House committee allowed $439,950,000. The
entire appropriation was stricken on the floor of the House on a point
of order. The Senate committee recommends an appropriation of
$443,278,300 which is $3,328,300 over the amount allowed by the
House committee and $85,271,700 under the budget estimate.
In making this recommendation, the Senate committee restored to
the bill the following items:
Puget Sound Shipyard.-The budget estimate for this item was
$2,200,000. The House committee reduced this by $2 million. Full
restoration of $2,200,000 was recommended by the Senate committee.
Naval Ordnance Plant, Macon, Ga.-The budget estimate for this
item was $3,800,000. This was not allowed by the House committee
but has been restored in full by the Senate committee.

The Senate committee made specific deletions in the Navy program.
The committee was requested to restore $2 million deleted by the
House committee for correction of deficiencies, but did not allow this
amount. Instead the committee granted the $4 million allowed by
the House committee.
The Senate committee did not approve the request for $350,000 for
the Armed Forces Medical Library at the National Naval Medical
Center. The committee did this without prejudice and suggests
that this item may be again considered next year.
The committee also reduced ',the amount requested by the Marine
Corps for housing at Quantico, Va., from $4,121,700 to $2 million in
the conviction that housing facilities already available should be
utilized before the full program requested by the Department is
accepted.
In addition the committee recommends an overall reduction for the
Department of the Navy of $80,800,000 in the belief that absorption
of this cut will in no wise adversely affect the program as justified to
the committee by the Department, and which, with the exceptions
noted above, has been approved by the committee.
AUDITED CLAIMS
The following language was deleted on the House floor and is the
same as proposed by the House committee. The committee recom-
mends the inclusion of this provision.
Applicable current appropriations of the Department of the Navy shall be available
for the payment of claims certified by the Comptroller General to be otherwise due, in
the amounts stated below, from the following appropriations:
"Maintenance, Bureau of Supplies and Accounts", fiscal year 1943, $171.48;
"Pay, subsistence, and transportation, Navy", fiscal year 1943, $3,344.24;
"Maintenance, Bureau of Ships", fiscal year 1946, $5,838.42; and

For the Department of the Air Force, the committee considered
military construction items totaling $1,200,000,000, of which
$945,000,000 was to be provided in new funds and the remainder,
$255,000,000, was to be provided by transfer from "Procurement and
production, Army" unobligated balances. This funding was to pro-
vide a program totaling $1,449,242,000. The entire appropriation
was stricken in the House on a point of order. The Senate committee
recommends an appropriation including transfers of $1,078,64:9,000,
which is $122,680,000 over the amount allowed by the House com-
mittee and $121,351,000 under the budget estimates.
In making these appropriations the Senate committee restored to
the bill the following items:
Buckingham Weapons Employment Center.-The House committee
deleted this entire item, for which the budget estimate was $11,577,000.

this item which was budgeted for $5,822,000. The Senate committee
recommends full restoration.
Traverse City Air Force Base.-The House committee eliminated the
item, budgeted at $1,881,000. The Senate committee recommends
full restoration.
Hunter Air Force Base.-The Senate recommends restoration of
$142,000 deleted by the House committee, restoring the item to the
full budget estimate of $4,223,000.
Lake Charles Air Force Base.-The Senate recommends restora-
tion of $155,000, the amount reduced by the House committee, and
providing $2,396,000.
Travis Air Force Base.-The Senate recommends restoration of
$218,000 reduced by the House committee, thus providing the full
estimate of $9,897,000.
England Air Force Base.-The Senate committee recommends the
full budget estimate of $2,684,000, restoring $129,000 deleted by the
House committee.
The Senate committee recommends that $79,527,000 be appro-
priated for the Air Force Academy, which item was not allowed by
the House committee.
Classified overseas bases.-The Senate committee recommends
restoration of $23,169,000 for classified bases overseas, which items
were deleted by the House.
Certain specific reductions were made in the appropriations requests
for the Air Force by the Senate committee.
Appropriations were not granted for Ent Air Force Base for which
$3,015,000 was requested; for the Air Research and Development
Center transfer to Wright-Patterson Field, for which $6,000,000 was
requested; for Beale Air Force Base for which a restoration from the
House committee of $1,928,000 was requested; for the St. Louis
Aeronautical Chart Center for which a restoration of $494,000 from
House committee action was requested; for Lincoln Air Force Base
for which a restoration of $2,667,000 from the House committee
action was requested; and for Keflavik, Iceland, for which $135,000
was requested.
In addition, the Senate committee recommends an overall reduc-
tion for the Department of the Air Force of $106,214,000 in the belief
that such reduction can be absorbed within the overall program
funding without detrimental effect on individual projects.
The Senate committee did not consider for appropriation items for
which no appeal for restoration of funds was made. These include
funds for Chanute Air Force Base, McConnell Air Force Base, Biggs
Air Force Base, and Hickam Air Force Base. No restoration of funds
has been granted regarding House committee reductions in these items.
With these exceptions, the full program as justified by the Depart-
ment of the Air Force was approved.

without increasing the total amount for the base, as authorized by
Public Law 161, 84th Congress.
ACCESS ROAD BETWEEN KEESLER AIR FORCE BASE AND BILOXI, MISS.
This item was recommended by the Department of Defense in order
to alleviate a congested traffic condition that exists immediately ad-
jacent to Keesler Air Force Base. The committee recommends the
insertion of the following; language:

purposes authorized by section 303 of the Act of July 15, 1955 (P. L. 161).
GENERAL PROVISIONS
Sections 302, 303, 304, 305, and 306 were stricken on the floor of the

lowing general provisions be inserted:

in prior years are, hereby made available for military public works authorized for each
such department by the Act of July 15, 1955 (Public Law 161).

tee believes that the Federal Government should assume its proper

form such functions.

The committee recommends the insertion of an appropriation of
$300,000 for expenses necessary for acquisition in square 62 of the
District of Columbia. The committee is informed that the objec-
tions stated by the House report have been eliminated, and" that it
is in the best interest of the Government to obtain these properties
at the earliest possible moment.
Under the authorization recommended the committee understands
there would be an exchange of land between the National Association
of Life Underwriters and the Administrator so as to relocate the
Underwriters' Building in the center of the C Street frontage con-
sistent with plans heretofore observed for the area. There would
also be an exchange of land between the American Pharmaceutical
Association and the Administrator to enable the association to ex-
pand its building by making available to it additional land. The
Government and the Underwriters would then dedicate land for
widening C and 23d Streets.
The authorization will also permit the Administrator, with the
approval of the Planning Commission, to determine the exact bound-
ary lines of the properties being exchanged and to impose conditions,
such as the location, height, and setting of the buildings to be erected
and provisions for access drives and the maintenance and upkeep of
the grounds surrounding the buildings.
The committee relies upon the assurance of the interested parties
that this arrangement is satisfactory, and directs the General Services
Administrator to conform to this compromise agreement.

The committee recommends the restoration of $1,150,000 to permit

as estimated. The committee was informed by a committee of the
Judicial Conference of Federal Judges that providing this amount at
this time would facilitate the continuance of court sessions during the
summer months in the courts selected and would aid materially in

shortening the vacation time of the courts and thereby reduce the
backlog of cases in such courts. The committee believes it is wiser
to give a measure of immediate relief in this matter, than to require
the courts to wait upon a survey to be presented next year.

Senate committee recommendation_______________________________
300,
000
The committee recommends the insertion of an appropriation of
$300,000 for survey of Government records, records managemient, and
disposal practices.
Last year the committee was informed that there was in existence
in the Federal Government an accumulation of over 25 million cubic
feet of records, enough to fill 7'/ buildings the size of the Pentagon
Building. At that time this vast accumulation was increasing at the
rate of 4.2 million cubic feet per year, but some progress has been
made toward reducing this accumulation as well as reducing the great
bulk of paper and slowing down the creation of records. The com-
mittee understood at that time that the cost of creating and main-
taining such accumulation was about $4 billion per year, that efforts
of private firms and of State governmental bodies indicated the vast
savings possible by a survey of the situation by competent and dis-
interested records specialists, with estimates ranging from 20 to 33
percent for possible savings in the total cost of record procedures by
such surveys.
The quarterly reports received by the committee indicate sub-
stantial savings already achieved, in the order of 10 to 1 for the funds
provided for such surveys, with further savings to be derived when
the recommendations resulting from the surveys are fully implemented.

As stated last year, in recommending that $300,000 be made avail-
able to the Administrator of General Services, it Js the intention of
the committee that the Administrator contract with private. records
management specialists for surveys of Government agencies to cover
the creation, management, and disposal of Government records.
The survey should also include specifically the. necessity for, and the
practices of, the compilation of agency reports.
The committee believes that the' Administrator of General Services
should have broad authority in handling this program and has so
provided. The committee believes that an exception should be made
in the case of investigative agencies having responsibility under
law for the detection of crime or subversive activity. The committee
feels that there may be other exceptions and has provided the neces-
sary authority for the Administrator to make such exceptions.
In view of the very substantial economies, involving many millions
of dollars, which should be. effected by improving Government prac-
tices in this series of surveys, the committee feels that the Adminis-
trator of General Services should continue this survey program and
continue to provide detailed quarterly reports to the Appropriations
Committees of the Congress so that progress can be followed closely.
As stated last year, it is the hope of the committee that the organiza-
tional improvements resulting will be such that permanent economies
may be effected and future accumulation of records will be further
sharply curtailed.

Most of the above items would become effective only upon enact-
ment into law of the housing amendments of 1955, S. 2126, which
has passed the Senate and is pending in the House.
In addition to the above, the committee recommends the inclusion
of the following items in. order to provide necessary administrative
funds for the Housing and Home Finance Agency to undertake
certain new and expanded programs authorized in the pending housing
bill. No estimates were received by the committee for these items,
but the committee is of the opinion that they should receive prompt
attention if authorized by the Congress, and should not have to wait
for funds until the second session of this Congress when the next
supplemental appropriation bill will be considered. The amounts
added by the committee are as follows:

The committee also recommends increases in the applicable limita-
tions on expenses of travel in connection with the items recommended
for inclusion in the bill.
The increase recommended by the committee of $5.5 million is for
making interest-free advances to local communities and States for
planning non-Federal public works. This program would be au-
thorized by section 702 of the Housing Act of 1949 as amended by the
pending bill, S. 2126, and the appropriation is contingent on enact-
ment of the bill. The amendments would authorize a revolving fund
ultimately amounting to $48 million, of which $10 million is authorized
to be appropriated through the fiscal year 1956. The amount re-
quested, together with the $4.5 million heretofore appropriated, would
provide $10 million for the revolving fund as authorized. An increase
for salaries and expenses is also recommended in the amount of
$170,000.
PUBLIC HOUSING ADMINISTRATION
.The committee recommends an increase of $760,000 for adminis-
trative expenses of the Public Housing Administration. $700,000
of this amount would be for the additional costs of planning and

developing 35,000 units of low rent public housing under the United
States Housing Act of 1937, as amended; this amount would be
contingent upon enactment of the pending housing amendments of
1955. The remaining $60,000 is for an increase above original
estimates in the reimbursable cost of the annual audit performed by
the General Accounting Office.
FEDERAL HOUSING ADMINISTRATION
Administrative expenses.-The committee recommends an increase
in the amount of the estimate, $730,000, in the limitation on admin-
istrative expenses of the Federal Housing Administration. According
to testimony received in the hearings this increase would provide (1)
$145,000 for an increase in the estimated cost of the audit performed
by the General Accounting Office; (2) $377,000 for the expense of
the FHA's program of attempting to recover windfall profits realized
by certain sponsors of housing projects insured under section 608;
and (3) $208,000 for strengthening central office management and
control over insuring operations.
Nonadministrative expenses.-The committee recommends an in-
crease of $4,350,000, the estimate, in this item, which covers operating
costs of FHA insuring operations, mostly in its field offices. The
committee was advised that the amount now available for these
expenses is not sufficient to process the volume of applications for
insurance expected to be received, and that serious backlogs and
delays may result unless additional funds are made available.
$1,750,000 of the increase recommended is contingent upon enact-
ment of the pending housing amendments.
As noted above, the committee added certain amounts on which
no estimates were received and all of which are contingent upon the
enactment of the housing amendments of 1955, as follows:
Housing for the aged.-The pending housing bill, S. 2126, would
authorize the Public Housing Administration to enter into annual
contributions contracts for 20,000 units of low rent public housing
for aged families and single persons (in addition to the units authorized
for the regular low rent housing program). The committee recom-
mends appropriation of $300,000 for the administrative expenses of
the PHA in planning and developing 10,000 units of such housing,
which is the number authorized for the first year of the program, the
fiscal year 1956.
Housing loans to educational institutions.-The pending amend-
ments in S. 2126 would make certain changes in the college housing
program authorized by the Housing Act of 1950. The total authoriza-
tion for loans outstanding at any one time would be increased from
$300,000,000 to $500,000,000; the requirements as to loan term and
interest rate would be liberalized; and certain facilities other than
dormitories and college housing would be made eligible for financing
with such loans. It seems evident that enactment of these amend-
ments would result in a substantial increase in the number of applica-
tions filed for loans under this program, and in order that such applica-
tions may receive proper attention the committee recommends an

Approves or ReIe i2iffl,6/AftxcfAAADF OW70R000500060013-7
increase of $200,000 in the limitation on administrative expenses for
this program.
Public facility loans.-The pending housing bill would authorize
loans up to $100 million to States and local communities for terms
up to 40 years to assist in providing essential public facilities where
funds are not otherwise available at reasonable rates. These funds
could not be put to use without administrative funds to employ the
necessary engineers, financial analysts, and other personnel required
to process loan applications. Accordingly, the committee recommends
language making $250,000 of the revolving fund available for admin-
istrative expenses. The committee has also included language pro-
viding for the merger of the existing revolving fund under section 108
of the RFC Liquidation Act, for which $2 million was appropriated
in the Supplemental Appropriation Act, 1955, into the new fund
established pursuant to S. 2126, in order to avoid needless duplication
and expense in accounting and other administrative controls.
Cooperative housing.-The housing amendments of 1955, S. 2126,
would amend the existing program under section 213 of the National
Housing Act to make the program more attractive to lenders and
more feasible for groups of families seeking to develop cooperative
housing projects. Such housing amendments would change the base
for computing the maximum mortgage amount from "estimated value"
to "estimated replacement cost," and would provide for advance com-
mitments by the Federal National Mortgage Association to purchase
section 213 mortgages up to $50 million. The FHA would also be
required to furnish advice and assistance to cooperative groups. To
meet these new requirements, and to provide for processing the.
increased volume of applications for 213 projects which would be
received, the committee recommends an additional increase of $370,000
in the limitation on administrative expenses of the Federal Housing
Administration, and of $250,000 in the limitation on nonadministra-
tive expenses.

The committee recommends that the supplemental estimate of

ing, and the increase in the number of filings for small-tract leases
have resulted in a workload that was not contemplated at the time
the original budget was submitted. These funds are necessary to
assure that applications may be processed expeditiously.
The committee has been advised that funds appropriated in the
Department of the Interior and Related Agencies Appropriation Act
will be insufficient to meet the needs of all the States receiving funds
for the education of Indian children under the Johnson-O'Malley Act.
The committee directs that the matter of aid to States and school dis-
tricts be studied to determine the amount of additional funds that are
necessary to meet the responsibility of the Federal Government with
respect to the education of Indian children, and that a supplemental
estimate for such an amount be forwarded to the Congress through
the Bureau of the Budget for consideration early in the next session.

purpose of relocating and reestablishing those members of the tribe
residing in the area to be inundated by the Oahe Reservoir.

recommended for the construction of permanent facilities at Pasca-
goula, Miss. Local industry members and municipal officials at
Pascagoula have offered land for the building site, and have agreed
to build dock facilities and make channel improvements to accommo-
date the vessels of the Fish and Wildlife Service.
Repair of docking facilities at Woods Hole Fishery Biology Station,
Mass., $155,000.-These funds are necessary to provide for the
repairs and reconstruction of facilities at this station that were
damaged by Hurricane Carol in August of 1954.
Dakota Lake National Wildlife Refuge, N. Dak., $6,000.-Funds,
in the amount of $6,000, are recommended to allow the Fish and
Wildlife Service to join the State Water Conservation Commission
of North Dakota in the construction of an auxiliary spillway on the
James River. The State water conservation commission has agreed
to provide a like amount.
Fish cultural facilities below Norfork Dam, Ark., $455,000.-Funds
are recommended for the construction of a fish hatchery below the
Norfork Dam, which was constructed by the Corps of Engineers, in
Arkansas. The construction of the dam has made the stream unsuit-
able for the natural propagation of the present species of fish. There-
fore the committee recommends the inclusion of funds for the con-
struction of a hatchery to stock the stream with a suitable species of
fish. A provision has been included in the bill to accomplish this
purpose.

of Employment Security for its newly developed program, styled
"development of agriculture's' human resources," a cooperative
venture with the Department of Agriculture.
The committee has disallowed the funds requested-$150,000 for
salaries and expenses, Bureau of Employment Security, and $1,250,000
for grants to States for unemployment compensation and employment
service administration, to await a more thorough examination of such
estimates in the regular appropriations bill next year. Similar action
was taken with respect to the request from the Department of Agri-
culture.

the United States.
On July 6 the House passed H. R. 3822, extending the authorization
for this agreement to June 30, 1959, and the funds here recommended
are to provide operating funds for the final 6 months of the fiscal year,
contingent upon the enactment of H. R. 3822

Supplemental estimate---------------------------------------- 1,800,000
House committee recommendation------------------------------ 1, 100, 000
House allowance---------------------------------------------- None
Committee recommendation----------------------------------- 2, 185,000
The supplemental submitted to the House on June 29, 1955, request-
ing $1,100,000, was based on an increase in the minimum wage from
75 to 90 cents, as proposed by the administration. The Senate and
House have each since acted on the bill proposing amendments to the
Fair Labor Standards Act, and there is provided in the bill now in
conference an increase in the minimum wage from 75 cents to $1.
The committee was advised that the increase in the minimum wage
from 90 cents to $1 would greatly add to the inspection work and the
administrative burden of the Division-the number of employees di-
rectly affected by the $1 provision is estimated at 2,100,000, compared
with 1,300,000 under the 90-cents provision; and the number of busi-
ness establishments that would be substantially affected (those where
20 percent or more of the employees are presently receiving less than
$1 an hour) would be increased from 105,000 under the 90-cents pro-
vision to 235,000 under the $1 provision.
With this evidence before it the committee recommends approval
of $2,185,000 to finance the added costs of operation under the $1
provision for 6 months, and to permit the use of $200,000 for advance
recruiting and training of personnel.

the employees of the university. The Congress has customarily
made funds available for this purpose following enactment of pay

1956 appropriation---------------------------------------------- 200,000
Supplemental estimate------------------------------------------ 238,000

Committee recommendation------------------------------------- 238000
The House disallowed funds requested-$170,000-for the pay-
ment of travel expenses of delegates from the States to the forthcoming
White House Conference on Education for the reason, as stated in
the report from its committee, that there was doubt as to the funds
appropriated under Public Law 530, 83d Congress, being available
for such purpose.
The opinion of the Office of the Legislative Counsel was sought
and the committee received from it an opinion that the authorizing
statute was broad enough to cover such an expenditure of funds.
Accordingly, and with requests from educators throughout the
Nation, the committee recommends approval of the full supplemental
estimate, $238,000.
INCREASED PAY COSTS, CAREER INCENTIVE ACT

Committee recommendation----------------------------------- 1,375,000
No cognizance was given this estimate, submitted on May 26, 1955,
in the House committee report.
There is provided in this item increases for sundry appropriation
accounts in the Public Health Service to meet increased salary and
other costs resulting from the enactment of the Career Incentive Act
of 1955, the costs of which were not of course contemplated in the
regular 1956 budget estimates.
Under the terms of the act additional charges accrue, $1,192,253
in basic pay, $141,000 in retired pay, $126,186 in travel allowances,
and $72,553 for dislocation allowances for duty station changes.
Of this total cost, $1,531,992, the Service contemplates the absorption
of $156,992.

The funds recommended are for grants to States to partially meet
State administrative costs incurred in planning and operating a pro-
gram for distribution and use of poliomyelitis vaccine. When vaccine
in excess of National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis program
needs is available, action by the States will be necessary to insure
the availability of the vaccine for children and expectant mothers
through established channels. Present funds available to States are
inadequate and would not permit them to carry out an effective
program.

$3,310,000 contingent upon enactment of S. 890, to amend the
Water Pollution Control Act, is disallowed in its entirety.
The now legislation on air pollution provides for a research and
technical assistance program of increased scale and broader scope than
was previously authorized by law, and with the funds here recom-
mended the Public Health Service will embark upon a program through
research grants, research contracts, research studies and in training.

In addition to the appropriation here recommended, there is author-
ized for each of the two succeeding fiscal years the sum of $500,000 for

The House committee took no action on this request for the reason
there had been no report to either body from its committee on the
pending authorization bills. The committees have since acted, bills
have been passed, and conference action on the disagreeing votes of
the two Houses is expected within a few days.
The supplemental estimate, submitted to the House on June 30,
1955, was based on provisions in bills submitted by the Department
to provide free vaccine to needy children only. The Secretary of the
Department suggested in her testimony before the Senate committee
on the authorization bill that the language so limiting the availability
of funds be stricken out. The committee approved, and the Senate
passed, a bill without restrictions.
This committee was advised, in response to its request, that the
maximum potential cost of S. 2501 would be approximately
$137,000,000, and that for H. R. 7126 it would be approximately
$105,000,000. The committee felt that the allowance of approxi-
mately one-half of the average of these two estimates should suffice
to provide free vaccine to all eligible applicants within the coming
year, and so recommends an appropriation of $60,000,000.
CONSTRUCTION OF HOUSING FACILITIES FOR ANIMALS
Supplemental estimate------------ ---------------------- -- $400, 000

Committee recommendation--------------- _ 685, 280
The committee recommends $685,280, an increase of $285,280 over
the supplemental estimate and House allowance, for construction of
an additional animal building at the National Institutes of Health, to
provide for the housing of monkeys needed for the expanded polio-
myelitis vaccine-testing program.
The supplemental estimate contemplated a building of cinder-
block construction, without brick facing and without air condition-
ing. This is planned as a permanent building and the later addition
of brick facing and air conditioning would be substantially more than
the increase here recommended. There seems to have been no justi-
fication for not requesting the total cost of the building and the com-
mittee therefore recommends allowance of total cost of a completed
building.

examination and study of this request should be made.

total amount provided is $21,000,000 below the budget estimate, the
amount requested for a merchant ship reactor and disallowed by the
House, for which restoration was not requested.
In restoring $101,000,000, the amount of the unexpended balances,
the committee recommends the insertion of a provision authorizing
the transfer of that amount to "Operating expenses of the Com-
mission."
The committee also recommends the deletion of the provision limit-
ing the amount available prior to the enactment into law of H. R.

MEREDOSIA BRIDGE REPLACEMENT, ILLINOIS
The committee recommends an appropriation of $167,000 to
finance the Federal share of the first year's cost of reconstruction of
the Meredosia-Valley City bridges. The relocation plan provides
for the construction of a new bridge at Valley City, and the removal
of the existing bridges at Meredosia and at Valley City. The cost of
the reconstruction will be apportioned in accordance with the pro-
visions of the Truman-Hobbs Act, and in this case the cost to the
Federal Government will be about 55 percent, and the cost to the
bridge owner will be about 45 percent.
During a recent 2-year period these two bridges have been struck
a total of 69 times by river vessels, indicating clearly the extent and
continuing nature of the danger to both river and rail traffic.

The budget estimate of $7 million was requested in order to pay

ing from the passage of Public Law 20, the Career Incentive Act of
1955. The House of Representatives recommended a reduction of
$2 million from the budget estimate.
Testimony before the committee revealed that if the reduction
were allowed to stand the Coast Guard would be reduced by 500
individuals. Therefore, the committee recommends that the full
amount of the budget estimate of $7 million be allowed.

The Senate committee recommends that language be inserted in
the bill to pay claims arising as a result of Public Law 492, April 29,
1950, which provides for retroactive grade increases for certain World
War II veterans who lost opportunities for probational civil-service
appointments by reason of their service in the Armed Forces of the
United States. The language recommended is as follows:

Funds were provided in the regular 1956 act for a sufficient amount
to administer the tin program on the supposition that the operations
at the Texas City smelter would be discontinued by June 30, 1955,
and that the activity in the program would be limited to cleanup work
in connection with the closing of the smelter. However, authority to
continue the operation of the smelter until June 30, 1956, is contained
in section 2 of the joint resolution approved June 28, 1947.
The sum of $100,000 was included for the cleanup work in 1956, but
additional funds are needed to continue the salaries and related
expenses.
The recommended language designed to provide these funds is as
follows :
FEDERAL FACILITIES CORPORATION
The amount of the Corporation's funds made available under this head in title I
of the Treasury-Post Office Appropriation Act, 1956, for administrative expenses of
the Corporation, is increased from $800,000 to $975,000.

CHAPTER XIII
LEGISLATIVE BRANCH
SENATE
The committee recommends that the following paragraph be added
to the bill:
Miscellaneous items: For an additional amount for miscellaneous items, exclusive
of labor, fiscal year 1955, $185,83.5.
The following general provision under the Senate is recommended:
Subsection (b) of section 1311 of the Supplemental Appropriation Act, 1955
(Public Law 668, Eighty-third Congress), is hereby amended by deleting the period
at the end thereof and inserting the following: ": Provided further, That in the case
of the Senate such report shall be made not later than March 31 of the year following
the year with respect to which the report is made."
Section 1311, subsection (b), of the Supplemental Appropriation
Act, 1955, requires that not later than September 30 of each year,
the head of each Federal agency shall report, as to each appropriation
or fund under the control of such agency, the amount thereof remain-
ing obligated but unexpended and the amount thereof remaining
unobligated on June 30 of such year. The gross unliquidated obli-
gations and the net obligated balance would be most difficult for the
financial clerk of the Senate to develop for submission by September
30 because of the fact that the accounts of the financial clerk are
maintained on a checks-issued basis and the development of obliga-
tions would necessarily require that obligation accounts be mnain.-
tained at the obligation level. This amendment is intended to,
adjust the submission date of the required report by the Senate,
without impairing its value, to a date more suitable under the neces-
sarily complex legislative accounting system.

cludes $5,343,868 as set forth in House Document No. 184 and con-

Title IV of the act of September 1, 1954 (68 Stat. 1114), authorizes
appropriations to be granted. for the purpose of providing uniforms,
or allowances therefor, for civilian employees who are required to
wear a prescribed uniform in the performance of their official duties.
The amount which may be paid to each employee, or the cost of the
uniforms furnished, may not exceed $100 per annum.
This act was amended on May 13, 1955 (69 Stat. 49), to allow
benefits under the act when the wearing of uniforms is required by
regulations issued after September 1, 1954. One purpose of this
amendment was to permit the extension of these benefits to employees
such as certain nurses, guards, chauffeurs, and firemen who wear
uniforms as a matter of custom or tradition but were not required to
do so by regulation in effect on September 1, 1954. The foregoing
provision will make the above-enumerated appropriations to the
departments and agencies available for this purpose during the fiscal
year 1956.
The committee recommends the inclusion in the bill of the cus-
tomary antistrike provision, as follows:
Sxe. 1502. No part of any appropriation contained in this Act, or of the funds
available for expenditure by any corporation included in this Act, shall be used to pay
the salary or wages of any person who engages in a strike against the Government of
the United States or who is a member of an organization of Government employees
that asserts the right to strike against the Government of the United States, or who
advocates, or is a member of an organization that advocates, the overthrow of the
Government of the United States by force or violence: Provided, That for the purposes
hereof an affidavit shall be considered prima facie evidence that the person making the
affidavit has not contrary to the provisions of this section engaged in a strike against
the Government of the United States, is not a member of an organization of Govern-
ment employees that asserts the right to strike against the Government of the United
States, or that such person does not advocate, and is not a member of an organization
that advocates, the overthrow of the Government of the United States by force, or violence:
Provided further, That any person who engages in a strike against the Government of
the United States or who is a member of an organization of Government employees that
asserts the right to strike against the Government of the United States, or who advocates,
or who is a member of an organization that advocates, the overthrow of the Government
of the United States by force or violence and accepts employment the salary or wages
for which are paid from any appropriation or fund contained in this or any other
Act shall be guilty of a felony and, upon conviction, shall be fined not more than
$1,000 or imprisoned for not more than one year, or both: Provided further, That the
above penalty clause shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other
provisions of existing law.
