INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to the provisions of the Budget and Accounting Act (31 U.S.C. 1-24) and other applicable laws, the
budget for the fiscal year 1962 contains the President's
recommendations for the work program and financial
program of the Government for the 12 months beginning
July 1, 1961, and ending June 30, 1962. It also presents
comparable information for the fiscal years 1960 (actual)
and 1961 (partly actual and partly estimated).
The material in the budget covers both groups of funds
administered by agencies of the Government—Federal
funds (owned by the Government), and trust and deposit
funds (held in trust or in suspense by the Government),
although only the Federal funds are included in the computation of the budget surplus or deficit.
ARRANGEMENT
OF THE BUDGET
The budget document consists of the President's budget
message and four parts which contain summary tables,
detailed data, and special analyses.
In the budget message (pp. M4 through M96), appear the
general statement of the President's financial program and
an outline of his major recommendations.
Part I of the budget (pp. 1 through 8) contains five
summary tables. Each of these tables is designed to
bring together in one or two pages some overall aspect of
the Federal budget.
Part II (pp. 9 through 918) contains the detail of the
budget for Federal funds, including various types of tables
and schedules, explanatory statements of the work to be
performed and the money needed, and the text of the
language proposed for enactment by Congress on each item
of authorization. Also included is material on a few trust
funds which require congressional action. This part of
the budget begins with four statements (tables 6 through
9) which supplement the tables of part I. The remainder
of part II is arranged in chapters reflecting the organization of the Government.
Part III (pp. 919 through 976) contains a summary
table on trust and deposit funds, and detailed schedules
and explanatory statements on the various trust funds.
Part IV (pp. 977 through 1023) contains a limited
number of special analyses of budget data supplementing
material appearing in other parts of the budget. Some of
these give details for certain summary figures appearing
in part I—for example, a classification of budget receipts
by source, and a classification of budget expenditures
according to functions and subfunctions. Other special
analyses in part IV contain additional data or classifications not summarized elsewhere.
An appendix, printed separately, contains more detailed
information on personal services by grade and title.
The budget for the municipal government of the District
of Columbia is also printed separately. This main volume
of the budget contains detail with respect to the District
government only for the Federal payments and loans to
the District.
EXPLANATORY
STATEMENTS
Introductory statements at the beginning of each part
give further explanations as follows:
Pages 2-3—Types of funds; basis of stating receipts and
expenditures; concept of budget surplus or deficit; types
of new obligational authority; certain budget classifications.
Pages 10-12—Operation of Federal funds and format of
material printed for most accounts and funds in part II.
Page 920—Operation of trust and deposit funds covered
by part III.
Page 978—Coverage of the special analyses printed in
part IV.

BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
To the Congress of the United States:
For the fiscal year 1962 I send you budget and legislative proposals
which will meet the essential domestic needs of the Nation, provide for
the national defense, and at the same time preserve the integrity and
strength of our Federal Government's finances.
With this budget, I leave to the new administration and the Congress a progressive and workable financial plan which recognizes
national priorities and which reflects my confidence in the strength
of our economy now and in the years to come.
A budget surplus was achieved in the fiscal year which ended on
June 30, 1960. A narrowly balanced budget is anticipated for fiscal
year 1961. The recommendations in this budget provide for still
another balanced budget, with a surplus, in fiscal year 1962. The
achievement of balanced budgets this year and in the coming fiscal
year will help foster noninflationary prosperity at home and strengthen
confidence in the dollar abroad.
Despite the persistence of hardship in some local areas, economic
activity continues at a high level. It is imperative for the extension
of economic growth at a high and sustainable rate that the budget
be kept balanced and that we act responsibly in financial matters.
For 1962 the budget estimates reflect expected gains in the national
economy and provide for carrying programs forward in an efficient
and orderly manner. The estimates also reflect, as in previous years,
the budgetary effects of proposed changes in legislation, including the
cost of certain new programs. Most of the legislative proposals have
been previously recommended. I again urge their enactment.
In total and in its parts, this budget embodies a sensible and forward-looking plan of action for the Government. In brief, it provides
for:
1. Increasing our own military capabilities and promoting increased
strength in other free world forces;
2. Advancing activities important to economic growth and domestic
welfare;
3. Continuing assistance to the less-developed nations of the world
whose peoples are striving to improve their standards of living;
4. Increasing support for scientific activities in outer space;
5. Achieving savings by making desirable modifications in existing
programs and by charging users the costs of special benefits received
by them; and
6. Continuing present tax rates to maintain the revenues needed
for a sound fiscal plan.
M5
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
The policies and proposals in this budget will enable us to meet
fully our national and international responsibilities and to promote
real and sustainable national progress.
GENERAL BUDGET POLICY
This budget, like each of the seven which I have previously sent
to the Congress, reflects the conviction that military strength and
domestic advancement must be based on a sound economy, and that
fiscal integrity is essential to the responsible conduct of governmental
affairs. A surplus in good times, as provided in this budget, helps
make up the deficits which inevitably occur during periods of recession. T o ignore these principles is to undermine our strength as a
Nation through deficits, unmanageable debt, and the resulting inflation and cheapening of our currency.
An 8-year effort has been made by this administration to stabilize
the purchasing power of the dollar. This effort, which was a necessary undertaking in view of the heavy depreciation of the dollars
purchasing power following World War II, has had a large measure of
success, but the problem of maintaining reasonable price stability
will require close and continuing attention in the future.
Our national economy is strong and our national welfare continues
to advance. Despite a leveling out in economic activity during the
latter part of the calendar year just ended, the total market value of
all goods and services produced in our country in the calendar year
1960 increased by approximately $20 billion over the preceding year
and crossed the halftrillion-dollar mark for the
first time in our history.

tional demands. Over the
next 10 years and beyond,
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
we will be faced with the consequences of many commitments under
present laws for nondefense expenditures, in addition to the heavy
military burden we must continue to bear.
We can confidently expect that a growing economy will help pay
for these commitments. As the labor force grows and employment
expands, as business discovers new techniques of production and
invests in a larger and more efficient productive base, the national
output and income will grow, and with them our ability to finance
needed public services. But our resources will not be unlimited.
New and expanded Federal programs being urged by special groups
are frequently appealing, but, added to existing commitments, they
threaten to swell expenditures beyond the available resources.
The Federal Government cannot reasonably satisfy all demands at
the same time. We must proceed first to meet those which are most
pressing, and find economies to help pay their costs by reappraising
old programs in the light of emerging priorities. We must encourage
States and localities to increase further their participation in programs
for meeting the needs of their citizens. And we must preserve and
strengthen the environment in which individual initiative and responsibility can make their maximum contribution.
Our unsatisfactory balance of international payments provides
another compelling reason for pursuing sound financial policies. The
relationship between our budgetary actions and the balance of payments needs to be carefully examined to assure a minimum adverse
effect. Whether the dollar will continue to enjoy high prestige and
confidence in the international financial community will depend on
the containment of inflation at home and on the exercise of wise
restraint and selectivity in our expenditures abroad.
The need for concern about our spending abroad is not strange or
surprising. It results from the recovery, profoundly desired and
deliberately encouraged by our country, of the major centers of production in Western Europe and Japan following the devastation and
disruption caused by war. To reflect this developing state of affairs,
changes are now required in some policies established in earlier years.
Therefore, I have prescribed certain actions in international transactions under direct governmental control and others are under study.
Such measures, combined with proper financial prudence in the
handling of domestic affairs and strong export promotion, should
significantly improve our balance of payments.
In summary, if we plan wisely and allocate our resources carefully,
we can have both public and private advancement. Sound fiscal
policies and balanced budgets will sustain sound economic growth and,
eventually, will make possible a reduced tax burden. At the same
time, we can have necessary improvements in Federal programs to
meet the demands of an ever-changing world. If, however, we
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
deliberately run the Government by credit cards, improvidently
spending today at the expense of tomorrow, we will break faith with
the American people and their children, and with those joined with
us in freedom throughout the world.
BUDGET TOTALS—1961
Current estimates indicate a close balance in the 1961 budget.
On the newly adopted basis of excluding interfund transactions,
expenditures are estimated at $78.9 billion and receipts at $79.0 billion, resulting in a budget surplus of $0.1 billion. The revenue estimate reflects a justifiably optimistic view as to the course of our
economy, based on circumstances described in my Economic Report.
Last January, I proposed a budget for 1961 that showed a surplus
of $4.2 billion. The enactment by the Congress of unrecommended
expenditures and the unwillingness of the Congress to increase postal
rates reduced this prospect by approximately $2 billion. In the meantime, lower corporate profits have materially reduced our expectation
of tax collections from this source.
The small surplus of $79 million currently estimated for 1961 takes
into account an assumption that postal rates will be increased not
later than April 1, 1961.
Despite the congressional increases in the budget last year, the present estimate of $78.9 billion for 1961 expenditures is about $900 million
less than the figure of $79.8 billion which appeared in the budget a
year ago. The apparent reduction results from (1) the elimination, as
announced in last year's budget, of certain interfund transactions
totaling $0.7 billion from the current estimate of expenditures and
(2) the shift of employment security grants of $0.3 billion to trust
fund financing as provided by law. As explained elsewhere in this
budget, these changes affect receipts as well as expenditures and do
not affect the surplus.
Apart from these accounting adjustments, the increases and decreases from last year's estimate of 1961 expenditures are approximately offsetting.
Major increases from the original budget include $766 million for
Federal employee pay raises; $554 million in losses of the postal service because rates were not increased as proposed; $269 million for
defense programs; $188 million for health, education, and welfare
activities; and $164 million for civil space activities.
Major decreases from the original estimates include $600 million
for interest on the public debt; $496 million for the activities of the
Commodity Credit Corporation; $311 million for veterans compensation, pensions, and readjustment benefits; $93 million for the ExportImport Bank; and $50 million for military assistance. In addition, a
reduction of $160 million is estimated under the proposal to reduce the
postal deficit in 1961 by increasing postal rates effective April 1.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
Other reductions, including a normal downward revision in the allowance for contingencies, total $210 million.
BUDGET TOTALS—1962
For the fiscal year 1962, my recommendations provide for $82.3
billion in budget receipts and $80.9 billion in budget expenditures.
The resulting budgetary surplus of $1.5 billion will permit another
modest payment on the public debt.
The estimate of receipts in 1962 is $3.3 billion higher than the current estimate for 1961, and $4.6 billion more than the receipts actually
collected in 1960. Expenditures are also increasing, from a total of
$76.5 billion in 1960 to $78.9 billion currently estimated for 1961 and
$80.9 billion proposed for 1962.
Budget expenditures.—The increase of $1.9 billion in estimated
expenditures between 1961 and 1962 reflects several factors which are
worthy of special note.
First, outlays for our Nation's defenses are estimated to rise by
$1.4 billion in 1962 to a total of $42.9 billion. Much of this increase
reflects continued emphasis on certain expanding defense programs,
such as Polaris submarines, the Minuteman missile, the B-70 longrange bomber, a strengthened airborne alert capability, airlift modernization, and modernization of Army equipment. These improvements
are for the purpose of keeping our military might the strongest in the
world.
Second, the budget provides for substantial continuing efforts to
support the cause of freedom through the mutual security program.
PURPOSES OF BUDGET EXPENDITURES
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
Expenditures for this program in 1962 are estimated at $3.6 billion,
an increase of $250 million over 1961.
Third, civil space vehicles and space exploration will require $965
million in 1962, up $195 million from 1961, and $564 million more
than in 1960. In total, the recommendations in this budget provide
for $9.4 billion in expenditures in 1962 for carrying forward research
and development efforts, of which $7.4 billion is for major national
security purposes. The total represents an increase of $770 million
over 1961. As part of the overall research and development effort,
increasing Federal support for basic research is being provided.
This budget includes $1 billion for the conduct and support of basic
research in universities, industrial establishments, Government laboratories, and other centers of research.
Fourth, increases in expenditures are proposed for certain activities
important to domestic well-being and to the future development of
our Nation. These include, among others, broadening medical care
for the aged; making major improvements in transportation programs;
continuing development of our natural resources at a new record level
of expenditures; improving our health and welfare programs; providing assistance for construction of elementary and secondary schools
and college facilities; assisting areas of substantial and persistent unemployment; and fostering rural development. Expenditures in 1962
for labor, education, health, welfare, community development, transportation aids and services, and conservation of natural resources are
estimated to total $8.6 billion, an increase of $627 million over 1961.
To some extent these recommended budget increases are offset by
proposed reductions which can be effected in existing programs
through improved operations and through changes in present laws.
These reductions result from a continuous search for ways to restrain
unnecessary expenditures in going activities, to recognize real priorities
of need, and to assure that Federal programs are carried out in an
efficient manner.
Savings are proposed and can be achieved through modification of
activities which, in their existing form, require a disproportionate or
wasteful expenditure of Federal funds. For example, States, localities,
and other non-Federal interests should assume a greater share of the
costs of urban renewal, local flood protection, and the building and
operating of schools in federally affected areas. The Congress should
act on proposals to encourage nongovernmental financing, and reduce
reliance on direct Federal financing, in such activities as home loans
for veterans and for military personnel, and the expansion of rural
electrification and telephone systems. Certain grants and benefits
should also be reviewed and revised, including those for agricultural
conservation, civil airport construction, airline subsidies, housing aids
no longer needed for readjustment of World War II veterans, and
agricultural price supports, particularly for wheat.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
Benefits to the general
taxpayer are also proposed
in the coming fiscal year

the enactment of measures

services which they derive

these are proposals to eliminate the postal deficit and

Extension of present tax rates.—It is necessary to extend for another
year the present tax rates on corporation income and the excise
taxes which are scheduled for reduction or termination on July 1,
1961. The excise tax rates scheduled for reduction include those on
distilled spirits, beer, wines, cigarettes, passenger automobiles,
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
automobile parts and accessories, and transportation of persons;
the 10% tax on general telephone service is scheduled to expire. Unless
these tax rates are extended, the Federal Government will lose an
estimated $2.6 billion in revenues in 1962, and $3.7 billion on a full
annual basis.
Changes in fees and charges.—In the conduct of certain of its activities, the Government provides special services, sells products, and
leases federally owned resources, which convey to the recipients
benefits above and beyond those which accrue to the public at large.
In fairness to the general taxpayer, the cost of these services or the
fair market value of the products and resources which are transferred
to private use should be recovered, wherever feasible, through
adequate fees and charges.
To this end, the Congress was
requested last year to provide increased fees and charges for a
number of special benefits. With the one exception of fees for noncompetitive oil and gas leases no final action was taken. The Congress is again requested to raise postal rates to eliminate the postal
deficit and to act favorably on the proposals for increased highway
and aviation fuel taxes and for a number of other fees or charges.
The present highway fuel tax rate should be increased by one-half
cent per gallon and the resulting rate of 4K cents should be continued
through 1972. This step is necessary to permit timely completion
of the Interstate System. It will also make possible the repeal of the
unwise diversion from the general fund to the trust fund of excise tax

receipts amounting to 5 % of the manufacturers' price of passenger
automobiles and automobile parts and accessories; this diversion is
presently scheduled by law to begin July 1, 1961, and to continue for
the fiscal years 1962 through 1964. The Congress should also raise
the excise tax rate on aviation gasoline from 2 to 4% cents per gallon;
impose the same excise tax rate on jet fuels, now untaxed; and retain
the receipts from these taxes in the general fund to help pay the cost
of the Federal airways system. Other aspects of these recommendations are set forth in the discussion of transportation programs in this
message.

Public debt.—Achievement of the proposed budget surplus for
1962 will enable the Federal Government to make another modest reduction in the public debt. It is estimated that the public debt, which
stood at $286.3 billion on June 30, 1960, will decline to $284.9 billion
by the end of fiscal year 1961 and to $283.4 billion on June 30, 1962.
If the Congress accepts the proposals in this budget, and the proposed budget surplus for fiscal year 1962 is achieved, at the end of
that year the Government will have some operating leeway within the
permanent debt limit of $285 billion. Due to the seasonal pattern of
tax collections, however, it will again be necessary for the Congress
to provide a temporary increase in the debt limit during 1962. The
present temporary debt limit of $293 billion expires Jane 30, 1961.
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
The Congress is again
urged to remove the 4%%
Public Debt:
statutory limitation on
new issues of Treasury
bonds, which remains a
serious obstacle to efficient
long-run management of
the public debt. The marketable debt is still too
heavily concentrated in
securities of relatively short maturity, with almost 8 0 % of the total
coming due within 5 years. Although interest rates have declined in
recent months, the continued existence of the interest rate ceiling
limits the flexibility of debt operations by the Treasury. It effectively prevents the Treasury under certain circumstances from lengthening the debt by offering longer term securities or exchanges at
maturity and, more importantly, it reduces considerably the possible
use of the advance refunding technique, which offers the greatest
promise for lengthening the average maturity of the debt.
RECEIPTS FROM AND PAYMENTS TO THE PUBLIC
The budget totals exclude the transactions of funds held in trust by
the Federal Government as well as certain other transactions affecting
the flow of money between the public and the Federal Government
as a whole. Trust fund operations are an important factor in this flow
and are consolidated with budget transactions to measure the Federal
Government's cash receipts from and payments to the public. In this
consolidation, certain transactions involving no flow of cash between
the Government and the public are eliminated.
Expenditures from trust funds are financed through taxes and other
receipts which are specifically designated to serve the special purposes
for which the funds were established. About one-half of total trust
fund transactions are accounted for by the old-age and survivors
insurance system. Other important programs carried on through
trust funds include the railroad retirement system, the Federal employees' retirement systems, disability insurance, unemployment compensation, grants for highway construction, purchase of insured and
guaranteed mortgages, and veterans life insurance. In certain areas
of Government activity, notably labor and welfare, trust fund expenditures far exceed the amounts spent through budget funds and,
with the taxes levied to finance them, exert a considerable influence
on the economy of the Nation.
Total receipts and expenditures of trust funds more than tripled
during the decade of the fifties, and passed the $20 billion mark in
1960. In 1962, they are both estimated to total $25.2 billion. Total
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
receipts from the public in 1962 are estimated at $103.1 billion and
payments to the public at $101.8 billion, with a resulting excess of
receipts of $1.3 billion.

IMPROVEMENTS IN THE T A X SYSTEM
There is a continuing need for a reappraisal of the tax system to
assure that it operates equitably and with a minimum of repressive
effects on incentives to work, save, and invest. Continued close cooperation between the Treasury and the committees of the Congress is
necessary to formulate sound and attainable proposals for the longrange improvement of the tax laws.
However, as the development of a comprehensive tax revision program will take time, the Congress should consider promptly this
year certain changes in the tax laws to correct inequities.
For
example, it is again recommended that the Congress promptly consider amending the laws on taxation of cooperatives to provide for
more equitable taxation by insuring that taxes are paid on the income
of these businesses either by the cooperative or by its members.
It has been many years since certain of the tax laws which now
apply to the Nation's various private lending institutions and to
fire and casualty insurance companies became effective. The Congress
should review these statutes and the tax burdens now carried by
lending institutions and insurance companies to determine whether
or not inequities exist and to remedy any inequitable situations which
may be found. The Treasury Department has under way studies
relating to the operation of the existing statutes in this area. These
studies should be of assistance to the Congress in any such review.
There is a need for review of present depreciation allowances and
procedures. More liberal and flexible depreciation can make a major
contribution toward neutralizing the deterrent effects of high tax
rates on investment. A better system of capital recovery allowances
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
would provide benefits to those who invest in productive plant and
equipment and would encourage business expenditures for modernization and greater efficiency, thus helping to foster long-range economic growth. B y bringing the allowances for American business
more nearly into line with those available to many foreign producers,
improved depreciation procedures would not only strengthen the competitive position of American producers, but their benefits would
also accrue to American workers through increased productivity and
greater job opportunity.
The depreciation rules should not be substantially liberalized, however, without accompanying remedial legislation with respect to the
taxation of gains from sale of depreciable property. The legislation
recommended last year to treat income on disposition of depreciable
property as ordinary income to the extent of the depreciation deductions previously taken on the property is an essential first step.
IMPROVEMENTS IN GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATION
During the past 8 years major improvements have been made in
the organization of the executive branch of the Government. An
executive Department of Health, Education, and Welfare was established to give Cabinet status to its important programs. The organization of the Department of Defense was strengthened to bring it
more closely into line with the requirements of modern warfare. A
National Aeronautics and Space Administration was created to provide effective civilian leadership over appropriate parts of our national space program. The Council of Economic Advisers was reconstituted and reorganized to strengthen its internal administration
and clarify its relationships with the President. Functions of
coordinating governmental planning for defense mobilization and
civil defense were consolidated. The establishment of the Federal
Aviation Agency brought about substantial improvements in aviation
programs.
Many of the numerous organizational improvements were effected
by Presidential reorganization plans authorized by the Reorganization
Act of 1949, which has now expired. The Congress should renew that
authority and make it permanently available for all future Presidents
in the effective form as originally enacted. The task of conforming
Government organization to current needs is a continuing one in our
ever-changing times.
Executive Office oj the President.—The duties placed on the President
by the Constitution and the statutes demand the most careful attention to the staffing and organization of the President's Office. While
the present organization of the Executive Office of the President
reflects many constructive steps taken over a period of years, much

and, within the limits of existing laws and available appropriations,
to establish new units in the Executive Office and fix the compensation
of officers. Such action would insure that future Presidents will
possess the latitude to design the working structure of the Presidential office as they deem necessary for the effective conduct of their
duties under the Constitution and the laws. Enactment of such
legislation would be a major step forward in strengthening the Office
of the President for the critical tests that will surely continue to face
our Nation in the years to come. These matters are obviously devoid
of partisan considerations.
My experience leads me to suggest the establishment of an Office of
Executive Management in the Executive Office of the President in
which would be grouped the staff functions necessary to assist the
President in the discharge of his managerial responsibilities. In an
enterprise as large and diversified as the executive branch of the
Government, there is an imperative need for effective and imaginative
central management to strengthen program planning and evaluation,
promote efficiency, identify and eliminate waste and duplication,
and coordinate numerous interagency operations within approved
policy and statutory objectives. The establishment of an Office of
Executive Management is highly desirable to help the President
570000—61 ii
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
achieve the high standards of effective management that the Congress
and the people rightfully expect.
I have given much personal study to the assistance the President
needs in meeting the multitude of demands placed upon him in conducting and correlating all aspects of foreign political, economic,
social, and military affairs. I have reached the conclusion that
serious attention should be given to providing in the President's
Office an official ranking higher than Cabinet members, possibly with
the title of First Secretary of the Government, to assist the President
in consulting with the departments on the formulation of national
security objectives, in coordinating international programs, and
in representing the President at meetings with foreign officials above
the rank of Foreign Minister and below the rank of Head of State.
Recognizing the personal nature of the relationship of each President to his Cabinet and staff, I am not submitting formal legislative
proposals to implement these latter two suggestions, but I do commend them for earnest study.
Other improvements.—Several other organizational reforms should
be considered by the Congress:
First, a Department of Transportation should be established so as
to bring together at Cabinet level the presently fragmented Federal
functions regarding transportation activities.
Second, legislation should be enacted to strengthen the position of
the chairmen of the Interstate Commerce Commission, the Federal
Communications Commission, and the National Labor Relations
Board by vesting in them the executive and administrative duties of
their agencies. The legislation should provide that the Chairman
of the Interstate Commerce Commission be designated by the President. These steps would place these chairmen generally on a comparable basis with the chairmen of other regulatory bodies. In the
case of the National Labor Relations Board, the legislation should
vest all regulatory responsibilities under the National Labor Relations
Act in the Board. Additionally, the responsibility of the President
to control and supervise the exercise of executive functions by all
Federal regulatory bodies should be clarified.
Third, action should be taken to consolidate the civil water resources
functions of the Corps of Engineers of the Department of the Army,
the Department of the Interior, and the responsibilities of the Federal
Power Commission for river basin surveys, in order to bring about
long needed improvements in the coordination of the increasingly
important Federal civil water resources activities.

The deterrent power of our Armed Forces and the forces of our
allies is based on a carefully planned combination of nuclear retaliatory weapons systems together with worldwide deployment of ground,
naval, and air forces in essential forward areas, backed up by strong
ready reserves. These forces make up a collective security system

which is $1,410 million more than the estimate for the current fiscal
year.
This increase reflects, in part, certain steps recently taken to increase the readiness of our military commands. These steps can be
financed in 1961 mainly within available appropriations. However,
some supplemental appropriations will be required for this year and
are included in this budget.
The recommendations for 1962 continue a strong posture of readiness and add to the capability of our military forces.
To take full advantage of the results of scientific and technological
developments, rapid and sometimes drastic changes must continually
be made in military forces and programs. Just a few years ago the
United States was programing twice as much money for manned
bomber systems as for strategic missile systems. The budget for the
coming fiscal year, by contrast, programs more than four times as
much for strategic missile systems as for manned bomber systems.
Similarly, defense against ballistic missile attack took only a small
part of the total capital investment in continental air defense as
recently as the fiscal year 1957, whereas in the coming fiscal year it
will be a substantial percentage of the total. There has been a gradual
shift from guns to missiles on surface ships, and from conventional to
nuclear power for submarines. For surface ships, the relative utility
of nuclear or conventional power is a question that requires case by
case consideration in each year's shipbuilding program. In total,
there has been an increased emphasis on versatile and modern multi-
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
purpose military units equipped and prepared for all forms of military
action—from limited emergencies to a general war.
Forces and military personnel.—To carry out basic military missions,
this budget provides for a total strength in our Active Forces of
2,492,900 men and women on June 30, 1962, the same as now estimated for the end of fiscal year 1961 and 4,000 over the year-end
strength originally planned for this year. A supplemental appropriation is being requested to provide for this 1961 increase, which is
primarily to bring our naval forces to a greater degree of preparedness.
The Active Forces to be supported include an Army of 14 divisions
and 870,000 men; a Navy of 817 active ships and 625,000 men; a
Marine Corps of 3 divisions and 3 aircraft wings with 175,000 men;
and an Air Force of 84 combat wings and 822,900 men.
Worldwide deployment of these forces, and of civilian employees
of the Department of Defense as well, requires a considerable amount
of travel to and from duty stations. The dollar limitation on travel
established by the Congress in the 1961 appropriation for the Department is not sufficient to cover all essential travel costs of military and
civilian personnel. Accordingly, it is recommended that this limitation be increased by $54 million for the fiscal year 1961 and that no
limitation be imposed for 1962.
If the reserve components of our Armed Forces are to serve effectively in time of war, their basic organization and objectives must
conform to the changing character and missions of the Active Forces.
Under modern conditions the quality and combat readiness of the reserve forces are more important than numbers. The nature of warfare has changed so drastically during the last decade that the whole
concept of the roles and missions of the reserve forces must be reevaluated.
Accordingly, the Secretary of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff
have been directed to make a new study of the reserve missions and
requirements. This should be aimed at the objectives of efficiency,
economy, and promoting administrative effectiveness. As a first step
toward a more fundamental revision, this budget provides for a reduction in the number in the Army National Guard and Army Reserve
paid for participation in reserve training from the present 400,000
and 300,000, respectively, to 360,000 and 270,000 by the end of fiscal
year 1962. These recommended reserve personnel strengths are fully
adequate to meet the needs of our national defense. The statutory
minimum placed on the personnel strength of the Army National
Guard in the 1961 Department of Defense Appropriation Act should
not be continued. The excess strengths which have been provided
by the Congress above my recommendations in the last several years
are unnecessarily costing the American people over $80 million annually and have been too long based on other than strictly military
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
needs. Even with the proposed lower reserve personnel strengths,
the cost of pay, allowances, travel, and operation and maintenance
for the military reserves will amount to well over $1 billion in 1962.
Strategic forces.—The strategic forces provided for in this budget
consist of a combination of nuclear weapons systems of land-based
and carrier-based aircraft, fixed and mobile missiles of intercontinental
and intermediate range, and overseas missile systems under the
military command of mutual defense treaty organizations. The
composite capability of these forces represents an enormous destructive potential and should deter any potential aggressor.
Up to the present time our strategic striking forces have relied in
large measure on manned bombers. Manned bombers—both landbased and carrier-based—will continue to be required. However,
with the advent of operational missile systems, more and more of the
strategic force in the years ahead will be composed of fixed-base and
mobile ballistic missiles—both land- and sea-based. The recommendations in this budget reflect this change.
By the end of fiscal year 1962, the largest part of the planned squadrons of the Atlas ballistic missile system will be operational, and a
significant number of the planned Titan missiles will be in place and
ready. The solid propellant Minuteman missile system is now well
along in development, and the first missiles are scheduled to become
operational during the calendar year 1962. Funds are requested for 5
additional Polaris submarines, making a total of 19 submarines which
will have been fully funded, and for the procurement of long leadtime
components of 5 more; procurement of the appropriate number of
Polaris missiles to arm these submarines is also planned, as is the
continued development of a much longer range version of the Polaris
missile.
Thor and Jupiter intermediate range ballistic missiles, provided to
our allies overseas under the military assistance portion of the mutual
security program, add still another important element of strength to
the strategic forces.
All production of B-52 and B-58 manned bomber aircraft is
scheduled to end in the calendar year 1962. However, as indicated
in my special message to the Congress last August, additional effort
is being devoted to the development of the B-70 long-range bomber.
Funds are included in this budget to continue work in 1962 on the
airframe and engine, and on the essential subsystems.
In addition to the forces equipped uniquely for nuclear attack, the
tactical fighters and missiles of the Air Force also contribute importantly to our strategic capability. Deployed overseas, with an increasing all-weather strike capability, these tactical forces can deliver
megaton-class nuclear weapons to potential enemy targets.
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
As a further step in strengthening the strategic forces, the Navy has
been authorized to increase significantly the proportion of attack aircraft aboard canters of the 6th and 7th Fleets. This action will
substantially increase the capability of those fleets to strike enemy
targets.
The very diversity of our weapons systems has created an increasing
need for fully integrated operational planning. To meet this need,
the Secretary of Defense has established a special staff group composed
of members of the services and representatives of unified commands
contributing forces to our nuclear strike capability. I have recently
approved the integrated strategic operational plan prepared by that
group and recommended by the Secretary of Defense and the Joint
Chiefs of Staff.
The advent of nuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missiles in
the hands of a potential adversary has confronted this Nation with a
problem entirely new to its experience. The speed with which these
weapons could be delivered against us and their tremendous destructive power make them suited to use by an enemy for surprise attack.
Accordingly, this budget will continue the major effort under way
during the last few years to increase the protection of our forces from
surprise attack. Except for the first few squadrons of Atlas, all Atlas
and Titan missiles are being deployed in hardened underground sites.
All fixed-base Minuteman missiles will be so deployed. There will
also be mobile squadrons of the Minuteman. The submarine Polaris
system, of course, lends itself ideally to mobility and concealment and
should be able to survive under all conditions.
There has also been an intensive effort to make the manned bomber
force increasingly less vulnerable. Some 4 years ago the Air Force
began the dispersal of these aircraft and commenced construction of
special alert facilities to assure that one-third of the force could be
airborne wdthin 15 minutes of warning of an attack. Both of these
programs are substantially completed. Under emergency conditions,
the long-range bomber force could also use a large number of additional
bases throughout the country.
As a further measure, steps have been taken to provide the heavy
bomber force with an airborne alert capability. Funds are provided
in this budget to continue to train crews and to acquire spare parts
and other materiel so that a substantial portion of the heavy bomber
force could immediately mount a 24-hours-a-day, 365-days-a-year airborne alert, should that step ever become necessary in an emergency.
Air defense forces.—The emergence of the ballistic missile threat
has, of course, required a revamping of our air defense forces. The
speed and destructiveness of the nuclear armed ballistic missile have
placed an extremely high premium on timely warning of an attack.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
Therefore, systems designed to provide such warning have been receiving urgent attention.
The ground-based Ballistic Missile Early Warning System
(BMEWS), involving a cost of nearly a billion dollars, has already
been largely financed. Work on this system has been greatly accelerated and is proceeding as fast as practicable. The first of the three
sites is now in operation. The second site will be in operation this
year, substantially increasing the coverage. The third site is planned
to become operational somewhat later. When the entire system is
in full operation, our air defense forces and civilian population, as well
as the strategic retaliatory forces, should have 15 minutes of warning
of intercontinental ballistic missile attack.
The matter of reliable warning of ballistic missile attack is of such
crucial importance to the safety of the Nation, however, that a number
of other approaches are also being explored. The most advanced of
these is the satellite-borne missile early warning s3^stem, Midas, which
is now under accelerated development. Midas is designed to detect
an enemy missile attack at the time of launching; this could about
double the amount of warning time available to our military forces
and civilian population. Substantial funds are included in this budget
to continue development of this system at a high rate.
With the increasing reliability, accuracy, payload, and sophistication
of the ballistic missile, our problem of safeguarding against surprise
attack will become ever more onerous. Development of an active
defense against ballistic missiles is progressing. The Nike-Zeus antimissile system is proceeding under the highest national priority, and
funds for its Pacific range test facilities are included in this budget.
Funds should not be committed to production until development
tests are satisfactorily completed.
The entire problem of detection, tracking, and destruction of the
attacking missile must be dealt with as a whole. Every avenue of
research which offers any reasonable chance of success must be
explored beyond the present frontiers of knowledge. That is the
purpose of the group of studies now under way, which has been designated by the Department of Defense as Project Defender. Additional
funds to continue this project through the coming fiscal year are also
included in this budget.
As long as a manned bomber threat to this Nation exists, we shall
have to maintain a reasonable degree of defense against it. The
Air Force now has under way a large-scale program for improving
the capability of its existing fighter interceptor force, particularly
against the low level manned bomber. The Bomarc B ground-to-airmissile program has already been funded. Production is going
forward, and missiles will be delivered to the air defense units over
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
the next few years. Additional funds are recommended to complete
and modernize the Nike-Hercules ground-to-air-missile system.
The Bomarc B and Nike-Hercules, together with the early models
of these missiles and the very substantial force of supersonic manned
interceptors armed with air-to-air guided missiles, provide a formidable defense against manned bomber attack. To provide the
detection, warning, and control for these forces, an extensive network
of radars and communications lines is being maintained and modernized. Funds for additional construction and for the procurement of
equipment are included in this budget.
Sea control forces.—Control of the seas is vital to the maintenance of
our national security. The naval forces, which are being provided
during this fiscal year with new combat ships and increased personnel,
carry the primary responsibility for this important mission.
The 1962 budget provides for active naval forces consisting of 817
combatant and support ships, including 14 attack carriers, 16 attack
carrier air groups, 11 carrier antisubmarine air groups, and 37 patrol
and warning air squadrons.
New and modernized ships to be delivered in 1962 from prior year
authorizations will enhance the combat capability of the naval forces
and permit the replacement of older ships. Among the new and
modernized ships to join the fleet in 1962 will be the first nuclearpowered attack aircraft carrier, the Enterprise; the first nuclearpowered cruiser, the Long Beach, armed with Talos and Terrier
surface-to-air missiles; three nuclear-powered attack submarines; four
Polaris submarines; and several guided missile destroyers.
The 1962 shipbuilding program provided in this budget will further
improve the fleet and help offset the increasing number of over-age
ships. The program consists of construction of 30 new ships and conversion of 22 others. In addition to the 5 Polaris fleet ballistic missile
submarines, new ships will include 7 guided missile frigates, 3 nuclearpowered attack submarines, 6 escort vessels, and 9 amphibious, supply,
and research ships. The conversion program includes 14 destroyers,
1 communications relay ship, 1 missile range instrumentation ship,
and 6 conventionally powered attack submarines.
A great deal of emphasis in the 1962 shipbuilding program is on
antisubmarine warfare. Progress has been made in antisubmarine
warfare organization and tactics. Improvements have been made in
weapons and equipment, particularly antisubmarine rockets, torpedoes,
and sound detection gear. However, the fast, deep running, nuclearpowered submarine of today is exceedingly difficult to detect and
attack. An increase in the capability to detect and destroy enemy
submarines is needed. Additional funds are requested in this budget
for research and development in this area.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
Tactical forces.—The tactical forces include ground, naval, and air
elements which are organized and trained to deal with cold war
emergencies and limited war situations, as well as to be prepared for
combat roles in the event of a general war. Recommendations in this
budget will continue the modernization and improve the effectiveness of the tactical forces.
This budget provides for a further increase in procurement for the
ground forces. Procurement of additional quantities of rifles and
machineguns employing standard ammunition of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization will fill the high priority needs of the Army and
Marine Corps forces; the M-113 armored personnel carrier will be
made available for high priority active Army forces; the M-60 tank
will be provided for the Army's highest priority deployed forces; and
increasing quantities of new field communications equipment, vehicles,
and self-propelled weapons will be produced.
The Army and Marine Corps will continue to buy a wide variety
of tactical guided missiles and rockets, including initial quantities of
the Pershing, a solid-propellant missile; a new lightweight shoulderfired assault weapon; the Davy Crockett, which provides infantry
units with a close range atomic support weapon; and missiles such as
Hawk and Redeye for defense of field forces against air attack.
Army aircraft procurement proposed for 1962 provides for 261 new
aircraft compared to 229 in the 1961 program, and includes funds for
surveillance and utility planes, as well as for medium cargo helicopters.
The tactical forces of the Army are supported by the tactical air
wings of the Air Force, which will also be provided with an increased
capability under these budget recommendations. Funds are provided
for continued procurement of F-105 supersonic all-weather fighterbombers. These aircraft, with their low-altitude performance characteristics and large carrying capacities for both nuclear and nonnuclear weapons, will strengthen significantly the air support available
to tactical ground units.
Continued modernization of our existing fleet of military airlift
aircraft is needed. Although the cargo and troop transport airlift
now available is generally adequate, much of the fleet is approaching obsolescence. Last year a program was started to acquire
the best existing transports for the most immediate needs and also
to develop a new aircraft specifically designed for cargo and transport
needs. The budget includes funds to continue the orderly development of this program.
Proposed legislation.—Legislation is again recommended to make
the necessary adjustments in military retirement pay so as to reestablish for all retired personnel the traditional relationship of their pay
with active duty pay. This relationship was broken for those retired
prior to June 1, 1958, when the 1958 Military Pay Act increased active

duty pay without a comparable increase for those on the retirement
rolls. The people affected are in most cases those who have fought
through two or three of our major wars. Legislation to correct this
situation should no longer be delayed.
Basic long lines communications systems in Alaska which are now
operated by the Army, Air Force, and the Federal Aviation Agency
should be sold to private enterprise for operation and development
under appropriate regulatory supervision. Legislation is recommended which will permit the sale of these Government-owned
communications facilities under adequate safeguards.
The need for maintaining the relatively small naval petroleum
reserves for strictly military purposes no longer exists. Legislation is
therefore recommended to transfer responsibility for the administration of these petroleum reserves from the Department of the Navy
to the Department of the Interior.
The need for manned aircraft, and for the pilots and other persons
necessary to fly them, is declining gradually as more and more missiles
enter the inventory of our operating forces. During the transitional
period it will be necessary to remove from flying status a number of
officers whose professional and managerial skills are still required by
the services. The complete loss of flight pay which such removal now
entails would represent a serious hardship to many officers who
have served their country well and who believed they would qualify
for flight pay as long as they maintained their flying proficiency. To
help ease the transition which this group faces as a result of conversion to new weapons systems, the Congress should make provision
for appropriate financial relief by reducing flight pay gradually for
officers removed from flying status because of changing technology.
The provision of section 412(b) of the Military Construction Act of
1959 requiring prior congressional authorization of appropriations for
the procurement of aircraft, missiles, and naval vessels is inappropriate
and should be repealed. Pending its repeal, the required authorizations for 1962 should be enacted promptly so that national security
planning and preparation can go forward with the least possible delay.
Further, in enacting the authorizations, the Congress should allow
flexibility in the administration of the Department of Defense procurement programs to meet changing threats and take advantage of
technological breakthroughs.
The Capehart military family housing program has admirably
served its purpose. Over the last 6 years, more than 100,000 such
family units were provided at a time when they were badly needed.
It is now apparent that the most urgent family housing needs of the
Department of Defense have been met. However, in order to place
under contract presently authorized projects and to provide for a final
increment of 2,025 units in 1962, it is recommended that a 1-year
extension of the existing authority be enacted.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
In 1958, I recommended to the Congress a comprehensive program
for reorganizing the Department of Defense. While many of these
recommendations were enacted, and substantial progress has been
made in implementing them, one area still needing attention is the
method of providing funds for the Department. As a first step,
appropriations have now been enacted on a broad category basis
but with specific limitations by Service. I now recommend that the
Congress, in acting upon the appropriation structure for the fiscal
year 1962 for the Department of Defense, give earnest consideration
to a plan which would make the necessary authorizations and appropriations to that Department to be administered by the Secretary,
but with a substructure of sufficient identification which will retain
for the Congress its constitutional prerogatives of raising and supporting the military forces of the United States.
North Atlantic Treaty Organization.—The evolutionary changes in
warfare that have taken place over the last decade have had a profound
effect on the military plans and programs of the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization. These plans are again being reviewed and studied to
take account of new weapons, better organization of the NATO
military forces, and more direct channels of command to carry out
NATO objectives effectively.
It is expected that the revised military plans for NATO will
recognize the changes that have taken place. However, the menace
of Communist military strength is growing. The NATO alliance
remains vital to the security of the United States, no less than to
the security of the other NATO allies. The United States will continue to contribute to the constructive and defensive tasks it has
assumed.
Some changes in U.S. force deployments may become advisable
in light of continuing studies of overall U.S. programs. Nevertheless,
the United States will continue to provide a fully effective strategic
deterrent force and will contribute to the forward deployed forces of
NATO.
Military assistance.—U.S. military planning has long recognized
the importance of allied forces in maintaining the security of the free
world. Military assistance under the mutual security program helps
to strengthen the forces of more than 40 nations. New obligational
authority of $1.8 billion is recommended for military assistance for
1962 to provide training and materiel for essential maintenance and
modernization of forces in the countries receiving aid.
In light of the expanding scope and cost of vital military programs
being borne by the United States, we cannot continue indefinitely to
provide military equipment on a grant basis to nations which now
have the economic and financial capability to shoulder more of the
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
burden of the common defense. The recent improvement in the
financial position of many of our allies has highlighted the need for
greater sharing of this burden.
Some of the Western European countries have now assumed full
financial responsibility for equipping their own military forces, in
which the United States had assisted earlier. We are confident that
as full partners in the common defense all nations of the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization who are able to assume this responsibility will do so. In 1962, military assistance to our Western
European allies wiJl be concentrated on selected types of new weapons
and on the training required for their effective use.
This budget also reflects the continuing need to develop and maintain effective forces in other nations which are faced with serious
threats of internal subversion or external aggression. Individually,
and within mutual defense organizations, such as the South East Asia
Treaty Organization (SEATO) and the Central Treaty Organization
(CENTO), these forces play vital roles in the defense of vast areas,
predominantly in Asia and the Near East. Assistance to these nations
will be concentrated largely on the strengthening of conventional
forces. In addition to its military value, this assistance in the common
defense effort contributes to the sharing of technical knowledge and
strengthens the bonds of friendship and mutual respect among the
nations of the Free World.
Atomic energy activities.—In 1962, expenditures by the Atomic
Energy Commission are estimated to be $2,680 million, compared with
an estimated $2,660 million in 1961. There will be increases in several
program areas, but these will be largely offset by reductions elsewhere,
notably in the procurement of uranium concentrates.
Expenditures for the production of nuclear weapons in 1962 will
increase over 1961, while those for the development of weapons will
continue at the same rate. Work will be carried forward in 1962 to
improve methods for seismic detection of underground nuclear weapons
tests. The Atomic Energy Commission is also cooperating with the
Department of Defense in the improvement of methods for detecting
high altitude tests.
In the naval reactor program, continued efforts will be made to
develop longer lived nuclear fuel. The development of a nuclear
ramjet engine for missiles and of nuclear powerplants for use at remote
military installations will be pursued. The efforts to develop a
nuclear engine for military aircraft will be continued in 1962 on one
technical approach.
Peaceful uses of atomic energy.—Fundamental to progress in the
peaceful uses of atomic energy is a sound and balanced program of
basic research in the physical and life sciences. An important seg-
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
ment of this work is high energy physics. Last July, the United
States began operating the alternating gradient synchrotron at the
Atomic Energy Commission's Brookhaven National Laboratory on
Long Island at the highest energy level ever attained anywhere in the
world. During fiscal year 1962 two more high energy accelerators, at
Cambridge, Mass., and Princeton, N.J., will begin operation. A high
intensity accelerator is under construction at the Commission's
Argonne National Laboratory near Chicago, 111. Legislation is again
proposed to authorize construction at Stanford University of a high
energy linear electron accelerator which will be 2 miles long.
The development of civilian atomic power is being carried forward
intensively. Expenditures of $250 million estimated for 1962 will
support major development efforts on seven reactor types, and preliminary studies and experimental work on a number of other reactor
concepts. The breadth and scope of our technology in this field are
unmatched in the world.
The next 18 months will see further advances toward our long-term
objective of making atomic energy an alternative and economic source
of power at home and abroad. The total number of major Government-owned experimental power reactors in operation will increase by
5 to a total of 10, and the number of power reactors operating in
public and private utility systems will increase from 3 to 10. The
1962 budget proposes additional funds for cooperative arrangements
with private and public power groups in undertaking atomic power
projects which would further the objectives of the program.
Jointly with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration,
the Atomic Energy Commission is pursuing Project Rover to develop
a nuclear powered rocket for possible future space missions. Expenditures for this project will increase in 1962. Continued emphasis will
be given to development of small, long-lived nuclear power sources
for space vehicles and other special applications. With the completion of a major experimental device in 1961, expenditures for longterm development of thermonuclear power will decrease somewhat,
but the research work will continue at about current levels.
Stockpiling and expansion of defense
production.—Expenditures for stockpiling and expansion of defense production are estimated to decrease from $70 million in 1961 to $52 million in 1962, as
outstanding contracts for delivery of strategic materials hre progressively completed or terminated. Most of the objectives for the
strategic stockpile are completed, and no new expansion programs are
in prospect.
Of major concern now are the storage and maintenance of large
quantities of strategic materials and the orderly disposal over a period
of years of surplus materials. Efficient management is hampered
because these materials are in several inventories, each subject
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
to different statutory requirements. Therefore, legislation is being
developed to enable consolidation of the inventories of strategic
materials and provide uniform procedures for disposing of surplus
materials whenever disposal will not seriously disrupt markets or
adversely affect our international relations.
Nonmilitary defense.—Closely related to the major national
security programs are the civil defense activities of the Government.
These activities are discussed with other community facilities programs
in the commerce, housing, and space technology section of this
message, under which the expenditures for civil and defense mobilization are classified.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS AND FINANCE
The national security and prosperity of the United States under
conditions of peace and freedom require us to maintain our position
of world leadership. Thus we must continue to assist in developing
the resources and skills needed in many parts of the non-Communist
world for the common defense and for economic growth.
Since the end of World War II, military and economic programs
launched by the United States have helped to make possible the reconstruction of Europe and have thwarted the advance of Communist domination in most other areas. In recent years, the focus of
these efforts has been shifting increasingly to the broader and more
difficult problems of helping less-developed countries maintain their
independence, build the foundations of growth, and advance the welfare of their people. Accordingly, increasing emphasis is being placed
on such aspects of our international programs as development loans,
technical assistance, and educational exchange. Greater use of
multilateral channels is being fostered.
Expenditures for international affairs and finance programs in fiscal
year 1962 are estimated at $2,712 million. The increase of $401
million over 1961 expenditures is due mainly to a greater volume of
loan disbursements by the Development Loan Fund, to the second
payment of our subscription to the Inter-American Development
Bank, and to the expansion of activities in Latin America and Africa.
New obligational authority of $3,102 million is recommended for
fiscal year 1^962. This is a decrease of $105 million from the amount
estimated for 1961. Increases for special assistance, commodity
grant programs, and the second subscription to the Inter-American
Development Bank are more than offset by the nonrecurrence of
the 1961 supplemental appropriation requested for the new InterAmerican Social and Economic Cooperation Program.
Mutual security program.—The military portion of the mutual
security program was discussed as an integral part of our national

States. Such foreign procurement as may continue will be largely confined to less-developed
countries, most of which do not increase their dollar reserves to any
significant extent but tend rather to use their earnings to increase
their imports.
Organization and financing oj international programs.—Attention
has been given constantly to the problem of improving the organization and administration of our international programs. For
example, most of the recommendations of the President's Committee
To Study the Military Assistance Program have already been fully
or partially adopted. As required by section 604 of the Mutual
Security Act of 1960, further analysis is being made of ways to
improve the overall management and coordination of our various
assistance programs. These studies will provide the basis for specific
recommendations on organization later in the year when the detailed
mutual security program for 1962 is presented to the Congress. Other
studies concerning possible changes in the appropriation structure
are currently under way.
In addition to possible improvements in the organization of foreign
economic activities, the Congress is urged to consider means by which

funds can be provided through the normal budgetary process to meet
the needs of more than one specific fiscal year. This applies particularly to programs of long-term economic development and technical
assistance in the training of manpower and the creation of basic economic, social, and governmental institutions. The provision of longer
term financing should not only enable a more effective use of aid but,
in the long run, should be more economical.
Eligibility for assistance.—Legislation is again requested to allow
greater flexibility in providing assistance to certain countries which

are not in a position to meet the requirements of the Mutual Defense
Assistance Control Act (Battle Act). Complex, time-consuming
waiver procedures are now required for cases in which our own
interests would be clearly fostered by the prompt extension of aid to
countries endeavoring to reduce their dependence on the Soviet bloc.
Economic and financial assistance.—The efforts of lessdeveloped countries in mobilizing their domestic resources for economic growth will have to be supplemented during the next decade
by continued investment from the economically more advanced countries. This investment will have to come from four major sources.
First, an increasing share should be private capital, which could
increase directly the productive capacities within these countries.
Among the steps taken by the U.S. Government to foster this goal are
the negotiation of investment treaties and the provision of information
on investment opportunities. Efforts are also being made to use,
where appropriate, existing guarantee authority. Private sources,
such as foundations and other specialized groups, should also continue
their substantial contributions to the overseas schools, hospitals, and
churches, so important in promoting democratic society.
Second, increased investment may be expected through international
organizations. In addition to the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development there are now the International Development Association and the Inter-American Development Bank. These
institutions are supported by contributions from many countries.
Also, the United Nations Special Fund is receiving increasing subscriptions from member countries. Further, the Congress should
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
authorize the United States to join the countries of Europe and
Canada in the new Organization for Economic Cooperation and
Development which will replace the Organization for European
Economic Cooperation. The new organization will extend and
invigorate the practice of consultation among its members and will
help find ways to facilitate the flow of investment funds to lessdeveloped countries.
Third, a greatly increased share of the needed investment must
come from the bilateral programs of other industrialized nations.
In the post-World War II era many of the other developed countries
have succeeded in rebuilding their economies and have established a
high rate of economic growth. In recent years they have substantially
increased their gold and foreign exchange reserves. The time has
come for such countries to augment materially their financing of
the growth of the less-developed areas, and there is evidence of growing
willingness on their part to do so. Strenuous efforts are being made
to persuade our partner nations to accelerate significantly the pace
at which they are taking on responsibilities for economic assistance
as well as for the common defense.
Finalty, common sense, goodwill, and national interest require
that the U.S. Government continue substantial assistance. The
needs of the less-developed countries cannot be met wholly by the
efforts of private investors, international organizations, or other
industrial countries.
Loans for economic development.—In 1962, the United States will
pay the second installments of its subscriptions to both the International Development Association and the Inter-American Development Bank. However, successful development in many countries is
dependent upon additional loans from outside sources. The ExportImport Bank expects to commit $602 million for development loans,
and this budget proposes that $700 million be made available in 1962
to the Development Loan Fund. Both agencies now have requests
for a variety of productive projects in such fields as electric power,
transportation, and industrial facilities. In some countries, such as
India and Pakistan, loans will be needed on a basis broader than
individual projects to insure the success of development plans.
There is a pressing need to approve financing for development projects in several countries over and above the level of funds presently
available to the Development Loan Fund. Accordingly, a supplemental appropriation of $150 million for 1961 is required. This supplemental request, if approved, together with funds already appropriated for 1961, would make available the full amount requested in
the 1961 budget.
Mainly because of earlier commitments, expenditures by the Development Loan Fund are estimated at $425 million in 1962, an in-
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
crease of $150 million over 1961. The Export-Import Bank plans to
finance its operations without incurring net budget expenditures in
1962 by encouraging private lenders to participate in its loan programs,
by using funds obtained from repayments and interest on prior loans,
and by selling notes from its large portfolio.
Loans of the Development Loan Fund will continue to be made
repayable largely in local currencies in order not to draw on the
limited foreign exchange resources of the recipient countries.
Latin America.—A supplemental appropriation of $500 million is
recommended for 1961 for the Inter-American Social and Economic
Cooperation Program which was authorized by the last Congress.
This amount represents the total authorization and therefore no
further appropriation will be required for 1962. These funds will be
used for a broad range of projects of direct benefit to the people of Latin
America in such fields as housing, education, agricultural improvements, and land utilization.
When plans become firmer, a supplemental appropriation for 1961
should be requested for earthquake reconstruction in Chile under
the $100 million authorization enacted by the last Congress. To
cover interim needs a $20 million grant from mutual security contingency funds has been made available to Chile, and surplus agricultural commodities valued at $29 million are being shipped under the
Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act of 1954 (Public
Law 480).
Defense support and special assistance.—New obligational authority
of $650 million for 1962 is proposed for defense support, a reduction
of $25 million from 1961, and $298 million is recommended for special
assistance, an increase of $66 million over 1961. These programs not
only help maintain substantial military strength by free world
countries rimming the Soviet bloc, but also include special economic
programs in certain vital countries, and provide for the continuance
of other special programs such as malaria eradication. The increase
in special assistance funds recommended for 1962 is due principally
to the growing need for aid to Africa. Other countries which have
had a traditional interest in that continent may be expected to continue the constructive work started there, and their assistance, like
ours, should increasingly be channeled through an expanded United
Nations effort which we have proposed.
In estimating the requirements for defense support and special
assistance, full account has again been taken of the substantial amount
of economic assistance in the form of surplus agricultural commodities which may be programed under Public Law 480. For 1962, the
budget estimates provide for placing almost complete reliance on
Public Law 480 for financing the Government programs for export of
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
surplus farm products, but the mutual security program will continue
to finance exports which cannot readily be programed under Public
Law 480. The requirement that a specified portion of mutual security
funds be used to finance exports of these commodities should be
eliminated.
Technical cooperation.—The scope and effectiveness of our technical
assistance activities have been expanding, and this trend may be expected to continue. Experience has shown that improved human
resources within a country are just as vital to development as capital
assistance from without. New obligational authority of $203 million
is requested for 1962 for technical cooperation programs, compared
with $184 million enacted for 1961. Part of the increase is for a
larger contribution to the United Nations Special Fund and United
Nations technical assistance programs to support the continuing expansion of their work which has been made possible by larger contributions from other countries.
Contingency fund and other assistance.—Events of the past year have
reemphasized the need for a fund to provide the President with the
flexibility to meet international contingencies which cannot be foreseen
in the budget. The situation in Africa continues fluid, and major
emergency requirements are possible in other areas as well. To provide for such contingencies new obligational authority of $250 million
is recommended under the mutual security program for 1962, [about
the same as provided for 1961. This is the minimum amount required for the coming year consonant with the responsibilities of the
President.
Funds are also authorized under the Mutual Security Act for administration and for contributions to specialized programs such as those
for refugees, Atoms for Peace, and children's welfare. For these purposes, new obligational authority of $99 million for 1962 is recommended. This amount is $6 million higher than available for 1961,
due mainly to expanding administrative needs in Africa and Latin
America.
Conduct of foreign affairs.—In 1962, the Department of State
plans to expand further its activities in three important areas of its
work. The number of diplomatic and consular posts in Africa is
expected to increase from 36 in 1960 to 49 by the end of 1962. A
Disarmament Administration has been established within the Department of State, and expansion of this activity is proposed. The
Department will also intensify its efforts to increase U.S. exports,
complementing efforts of the Department of Commerce.
During the calendar year 1960, there were 17 countries in Africa
which gained their independence. Official representation with these
new governments must be established as early as possible and preparation must be made for representation in other countries soon to be-
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
come independent. Because of the large number of new nations, a
supplemental appropriation for 1961 is requested to cover costs of
establishing new diplomatic and consular posts in Africa and raising
certain existing consulates to embassy status.
Legislation previously recommended to authorize payment of certain war damage claims of the Philippine Government should be
enacted at an early date. The Congress should also act promptly
to remove the existing reservation on acceptance by the United States
of jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice (the World Court).
Foreign information and exchange activities.—Substantial
increases have been recommended in the 1962 budget for exchange
programs and the programs of the United States Information Agency
in Latin America and Africa, made possible, in part, by reductions in
activities in Western Europe. It is essential that these activities be
stepped up in these areas to the extent of our ability to do so effectively.
The 1962 budget recognizes this need. However, if the developing
situation indicates both a further need for additional resources and
an ability effectively to utilize them, we should stand ready to expand
further these efforts. In Africa, 20 new information centers requiring
sizable initial costs will be put into operation in 1961 and 1962, mostly
in the newly independent countries. In Latin America, special efforts
will continue toward expanding and strengthening activities of the
binational cultural centers. Construction of new, more powerful
radio facilities for worldwide broadcasting is under way in North
Carolina, with completion expected in December 1962. Initial activities are under way toward the construction of a radio facility in
Liberia. In 1962, further improvement of facilities of the Voice of
America abroad is proposed by quintupling the transmitter power in
the United Kingdom and by procurement of a transportable radio
relay station to meet special needs on short notice.
The budget also provides for an expansion of cultural presentation
activities and exhibits at international fairs abroad. Funds for this
purpose are included in the estimates for the United States Information Agency instead of being appropriated to the President as in
previous years. The trade mission segment of the program is included
in the estimates for the Department of Commerce.
Activities under our cultural exchange agreement with the Soviet
Union continue to progress mainly under private auspices. There
are plans to exchange three Government-sponsored exhibits beginning
this spring, each of which will be shown in several cities. A supplemental appropriation is proposed for 1961 to take advantage of this
opportunity to demonstrate American achievements to a wide segment
of the Russian people.
Further expansion in the programs of the Department of State for
the exchange of persons is proposed in 1962, particularly in Africa.
Continuing support of workshops and foreign university chairs in
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
American studies, as well as assistance to American-sponsored schools
abroad, is planned. An increase in the Department's new program
of cultural and educational development abroad will permit many
new contacts between foreign and American universities. The 1962
estimates include funds for the continued development of the Hawaii
Center for Cultural and Technical Interchange between East and
West.
COMMERCE, HOUSING, AND SPACE TECHNOLOGY
The Federal Government provides a wide variety of aids to transportation, operates the postal service, fosters local and private initiative in housing and urban renewal, provides financial and other aids
to small businesses and to areas suffering from substantial and persistent unemployment, and helps finance civil defense preparations.
Expenditures for many of these and other commerce and housing
programs will continue to increase as workloads rise and past commitments for construction and expansion fall due. Moreover, the
Government's outer space activities are requiring substantially increased expenditures. Nevertheless, the total expenditures of $3.4
billion estimated for the fiscal year 1962 for commerce, housing, and
space technology are $413 million less than the expenditures now
estimated for 1961, primarily because legislation is proposed to increase
postal rates and thus eliminate the postal deficit financed from the
general fund.
Space exploration and flight technology.—Civil space activities being carried forward under the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration include : (1) the development of larger and improved
space vehicles, new types of propulsion and equipment, and a wide
range of necessary supporting research and development; (2) the
development of systems of meteorological and communications satellites; and (3) the search for new knowledge about the universe
through unmanned, and eventually manned, space exploration. The
NASA also carries on research related to new and improved types of
aircraft and missiles, chiefly to support programs of the military
services.
Expenditures for civil space programs are estimated at $965 million
during fiscal year 1962, which is $195 million more than in 1961 and
$564 million more than in 1960. Appropriations of $1,110 million for
1962, and supplemental appropriations of $50 million for 1961, are
recommended in this budget. Legislation is being proposed to authorize the appropriations required for 1962 and to provide permanent
authorization for later years. In addition, amendments to the
National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958 are again being proposed to improve the organization and management of the space
programs.

be proud of the accomplishments of our space
programs to date and can
look forward with confidence to future achievements which will succeed
in extending ever further
the h o r i z o n s of our
knowledge.
The first attempts to
develop communications
systems have met with
outstanding success with
both the Echo I passive
communications satellite,
which has reflected signals
between widely distant
stations on the ground,
and the Courier active
communications satellite
of the Department of Defense, which has stored
and relayed messages
transmitted to it from the
ground. We are now
ready, therefore, to take
the first steps leading to
a practical satellite communications system for
commercial use.
While
the special nature of space
operations makes it necessary and proper for the
Government to take the
lead in advancing the
needed research and development of satellites for
commercial communications use and to conduct
the launchings, private industry should participate
in the development phase
and should be aggressively
encouraged to assume the
costs of the establishment

MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
and operation of the commercial system. The recommendations in
the 1962 budget, including a supplemental estimate for 1961, provide for moving ahead rapidly with the development of an active
communications satellite system for commercial use, and anticipate
that private concerns will provide $10 million in 1962 in support of
the program.
In the field of meteorology we have also achieved success with the
Tiros I and Tiros II satellites. The 1962 recommendations provide
for further experiments with more advanced Tiros and Nimbus satellites, which may provide the basis for an operational system for
weather forecasting and research.
In the program for manned space flight, the reliability of complex
booster, capsule, escape, and life-support components of the Mercury
system is now being tested to assure a safe manned ballistic flight into
space, and hopefully a manned orbital flight, in calendar year 1961.
Further testing and experimentation will be necessary to establish
whether there are any valid scientific reasons for extending manned
space flight beyond the Mercury program.
In unmanned space exploration, the scientific information received
from our earth satellites and space probes has taught us a great deal
about the earth and surrounding space. In the near future, the first
launching under the Ranger unmanned lunar exploration program will
take place. This program will eventually include the increasingly
complex Surveyor and Prospector series. Investigations in the vicinity of the planets Mars and Venus are planned under Project Mariner
with initial launchings scheduled for 1962. Large earth-orbiting astronomical and geophysical observatories are also planned as successors
to our present scientific satellites.
The success of many of the advanced projects planned for 1962 and
future years will depend on the success of the new and powerful Centaur and Saturn launch vehicles. Steady progress has been made on
these boosters, which use proven liquid propellant in the lower stages
and advanced liquid hydrogen propellant in the upper stages. The
weight-lifting capability of the Saturn launch vehicle will surpass any
currently known to exist.
Transportation and communication.—-Few segments of our
economic system are more essential to economic growth and national
defense than an adequate and efficient transportation and communication network. This budget reflects important actions under way to
modernize Federal transportation and communication programs. As
a basis for future legislation, the Congress also has before it a comprehensive study of our Nation's transportation system completed last
year by the Secretary of Commerce.
Aviation.—The expanded program to improve air traffic control
and navigation services, begun in 1957, is advancing rapidly under
the direction of the Federal Aviation Agency. Over this period
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
budget expenditures for the promotion of civil aviation have risen
from $219 million to an estimated $811 million for 1962. Large
numbers of radars and instrument landing aids, as well as many new
navigation aids and other airway facilities, have been placed in operation. Substantial progress has been made in achieving joint use of
facilities for air defense and air traffic management purposes. The
improvements being provided and those now under active development by the Federal Aviation Agency will help assure accommodation
of a growing volume of air traffic with maximum safety and efficiency.
The continuing expansion of the modernization effort will cause expenditures of the Federal Aviation Agency to rise by $90 million to
an estimated $730 million in 1962. New obligational authority of
$686 million is being requested, primarily for procurement of additional equipment, for operating the airways system, and for conducting research and development of new equipment and techniques.
New legislation is recommended to authorize appropriations for continuing Federal grants-in-aid for airport construction beyond 1961.
In this legislation, the present method of providing new obligational
authority by contract authorization in substantive legislation should
be changed to appropriations which are subject to the normal executive and congressional review process, but still provide for adequate
advance planning by localities. For 1962, this budget includes recommended appropriations of $40 million, which is $23 million less than
the presently authorized level. The reduction reflects the sound policy
that the level should progressively be reduced and that, after a reasonable transition period, users and benefiting communities should assume
full responsibility for the construction of airports, which should be
largely self-financed.
Legislation is again recommended to establish a Federal corporation
to operate the Washington National and Dulles International Airports
in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. This arrangement will
provide greater management flexibility to meet changing requirements
and permit more business-like operations.
Subsidies to local-service airlines, including intra-Alaska operations
and helicopter services in Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York,
continue to be excessive. These Federal payments currently average
about $12 per passenger-trip for all trips of local-service carriers.
The reduction in subsidy expenditures of the Civil Aeronautics Board
from $87 million in 1961 to $82 million in 1962 reflects the large nonrecurring payments in 1961 to reduce the backlog of unpaid subsidies
from prior years rather than any reduction in accruing subsidies.
According to current Board estimates, subsidies will rise to a peak in
fiscal year 1963 and will remain above $80 million through 1966.
Strong demands for additional services and for new routes to smaller
communities could cause further increases in subsidies because the
potential traffic is inadequate to pay the full costs of the services.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
The dependence of these local-service carriers on the Federal Government should be reduced. Toward this end positive action is needed
from both the Civil Aeronautics Board and the Congress. The Board
should discontinue the least essential routes and stops in accordance
with its use-it-or-lose-it policy, and should also develop other means of
limiting Federal support. The Congress should review the basic
promotional policy of the Federal Aviation Act, giving special attention to the question of whether the national interest justifies continuing
substantial Federal payments to sustain deficit operations for service
to points with very limited traffic.
Domestic trunk airlines, now self-supporting, provide more passenger miles of transportation than any other common carriers. In
view of this evidence of the industry's growing maturity, the Congress
should enact legislation to make trunk lines ineligible for subsidies
after a period of subsidy-free operations. This will remove a potential
burden on Federal resources.
Airway user charges.—The civilian users of the Federal airways system enjoy substantial benefits from the large and growing Government
outlays for improved traffic control and navigation services. Federal
costs for operating and improving the airways system, excluding airport grants and weather and other indirect services, now approach
$600 million a year. It is wholly appropriate that civilian users begin
to assume a more reasonable share of these costs, most of which are
now borne by the general taxpayer.
To achieve this purpose, it is again recommended that the present
tax on aviation gasoline be increased from 2 to 4% cents per gallon
and that the 4K-cent tax rate be extended to jet fuels, which are now
tax free. In addition, receipts from the existing and proposed aviation gasoline taxes should be placed in the general fund rather than
transferred to the highway trust fund as at present. There is no
sound reason for using these taxes to finance highway construction.
The airlines should be assured that these tax increases may be reflected promptly in fare adjustments.
Promotion of water transportation.—The steadily rising cost of operating U.S. merchant ships is seriously hampering our efforts to achieve
a healthy, competitive merchant marine industry. Net expenditures
by the Department of Commerce, chiefly the Maritime Administration, in 1962 are estimated at $338 million, up from $279 million in
1961. Expenditures for replacement of war-built cargo ships are estimated to rise by $23 million, and outlays for operating subsidies are
expected to be $32 million more than in 1961.
In order to assist the shipping industry to achieve lower costs and
a stronger competitive position, the Government has recently initiated a new research and development program. A primary objective
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
of this program is to make available the new equipment necessary to
mechanize shipboard operations along the lines already well established in shoreside industries. The full cooperation of Government,
industry, and labor will be required to assure the success of this program. Established practices and legislative policies must be reassessed, and attention must be focused on measures most likely to
enhance the competitive position of U.S. merchantmen in international trade. If the United States is to maintain its position as a
maritime nation, if the industry is to be reasonably profitable and less
dependent upon Government aid, and if maritime employment is to
be stable and wages high, continuous bold innovations are necessary.
It is again requested that the inflexible 3%% interest rate on ship
mortgage loans made by the Maritime Administration be replaced by
authority to charge the Government's full cost for such loans.
Expenditures by the Coast Guard are estimated at $272 million in
1962, which is $10 million more than in 1961. This increase reflects
the operation of new loran stations, higher repair and maintenance
costs, modernization of facilities, and replacement of equipment, such
as patrol vessels, rescue helicopters, and aids to navigation.
Construction will continue on the Balboa Bridge across the Panama
Canal. Widening of the canal from 300 to 500 feet in the area of the
Continental Divide will also continue, in order to accommodate increased ship traffic. As a result of some increase in toll revenues
and some decrease in capital outlays, budget expenditures of the
Panama Canal Company in 1962 will be $6 million less than in 1961.
The Company should be authorized to reimburse the U.S. Treasury
for various costs associated with its operations which are not now
recovered, including the increased annuity payable to the Republic
of Panama in accordance with the treaty of 1955, and legislation to
this end is proposed.
Following extensive study, I have concluded that the commercial
activities of the Panama Steamship Line should be discontinued and
the Board of Directors of the Panama Canal Company has been requested to take appropriate steps to do so. Commercial shippers
now using the Panama Line have been notified of this action, and
complete cessation of commercial activities of the Line is to be accomplished by February 10, 1961. Thereafter, the activities of the Line
should be confined solely to the transportation of passengers and
freight for the account of the Panama Canal Company and the Canal
Zone Government. This action will undoubtedly require a reappraisal of the Line's operations, including a review of the need for
supplying Company-owned shipping services to the Panama Canal
Company from the continental United States, in the light of national
maritime considerations and established Government policy to avoid
undue competition with private enterprise.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
Highways.—The Interstate Highway System has progressed considerably since the enactment of the Highway Act of 1956, with
almost 10,000 miles now open to traffic. Active work is under way
on another 14,600 miles, of which approximately 1,600 miles are
expected to be open to traffic by the end of calendar year 1961. To
continue this progress and assure timely completion of the Interstate
System, two important legislative actions are required. The highway
fuel tax should be increased to 4% cents per gallon, as previously
recommended, and the rate should be continued at this level through
1972, instead of reverting to 3 cents on July 1, 1961, as provided by
present law. The unwise diversion of automotive excise taxes from
the general fund to the highway trust fund, also scheduled for July 1,
1961, should be rescinded.
Adoption of these recommendations will make it possible to complete the Interstate System in 1973 to meet the traffic needs for which
it is designed. The enactment of my previous recommendations
to (1) transfer financing of forest and public lands highways, which
for the most part are components of the Federal-aid systems, from
the general fund to the highway trust fund and (2) retain the receipts
from aviation gas taxes in the general fund, will not extend this planned
completion date. Under the proposed program, Federal payments
from the trust fund for highways in fiscal year 1962 are estimated at
$3,029 million, up from $2,868 million in 1961.
The Secretary of Commerce, in a report submitted to the Congress
this month, is presenting a current estimate of $37 billion as the total
Federal cost of the Interstate System. The estimated construction
costs of this 41,000-mile system are about $1 billion less than in the
1958 estimate, but the new total includes the cost of highway planning
and administration not previously included.
Postal service.—During recent years, the Post Office Department
has been conducting a large-scale modernization program to improve
the delivery of mail and to reduce handling costs per unit. For
example, a new system of mail transportation and distribution is now
providing overnight delivery of letter mail within all principal metropolitan areas. Modern mail processing systems with electronic and
mechanical equipment developed under the direction of the Department are already in operation in 17 major postal facilities, and similar
installations will soon be in use in 48 others.
While the modernization program has increased the efficiency of
postal operations and will contribute to savings in future costs, it
cannot materially reduce the enormous postal deficit. In fiscal
year 1962 this deficit is estimated at $843 million, after deduction
of the $63 million estimated cost of services benefiting the public
at large computed in accordance with the principles used by the
Congress in previous years. The deficit is largely the result of the
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
enactment by the Congress in the postwar years of postal pay increases
without corresponding rate increases.
In the Postal Policy Act of 1958, the Congress established the
policy that postal rates should be kept high enough to recover postal
expenses except for the cost of certain public services as fixed by
appropriation acts. In accordance with this policy, rate increases
adequate to cover such expenses were proposed to the Congress in
1959 and again in 1960. No rate legislation was enacted in either
year. With record postal deficits in prospect for the current fiscal
year and for 1962, rate increases must be provided promptly to
achieve a self-supporting postal service. Accordingly, I strongly urge
that additional revenue of $843 million be provided for the fiscal year
1962 and that the higher rates be made effective by April 1, 1961, in
order to reduce the postal deficit for the fiscal year 1961. Such action
is necessary to eliminate the drain upon the Treasury of this mounting
deficit for which there is no justification in law or in equity.
Housing and community development.—During
the past
decade, housing construction and improvement have gone forward at
the highest level in history. The housing shortages of the postwar
period have been largely mot, and the housing conditions of the great
bulk of the population improved. At the same time, major new
governmental and private programs have begun to reverse the blight
and deterioration afflicting our urban areas. Thus, a solid base has
been laid for greater progress in the decade of the sixties.
In the future, as in the past, the best results will be obtained by
emphasizing leadership and financial participation by private industry
and by local and State public agencies. Federal assistance can be
most effective, most consistent with our free institutions, and least
costly to the taxpayers if it emphasizes the supplementary action
needed to help overcome obstacles to private and local accomplishment.
The major needs for the immediate future can best be met by
assuring private groups and local governments of the continuing availability of existing Federal programs. Unfortunately, at the present
time most housing programs require legislative action at frequent
intervals merely to continue present operations. These programs are
no longer experimental. Their continued availability should not
depend upon the enactment of legislation which also often includes
controversial changes. Rather, the major existing housing programs,
like most other Federal programs, should be authorized permanently,
subject only to normal annual budgetary review by the executive
branch and the Congress.
Urban renewal.—The nationwide program to rebuild and rehabilitate
our cities continues to grow. By the close of the current fiscal year, an
estimated 68 projects in 50 cities will be completed, another 577 projects will be under way, and planning for 310 more will be in process.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
These 955 projects will ultimately have required a total of almost $2
billion in Federal grants to pay two-thirds of the net cost. If present
trends continue, approximately the same amount may also be needed
for Federal purchases of mortgages to finance construction of housing
connected with the same projects. This Federal aid will generate
much greater private and local investment and will result in substantial increases in property values and in tax revenues to local
public agencies.
This vital program should move forward on a basis which gives
adequate assurance to local communities of continuing Federal
assistance and also places proper emphasis on local participation.
Accordingly, permanent authority should replace the present annual
statutory limitations on Federal grants, with annual amounts provided through the normal appropriation process. Further, the local
share in project costs should be increased from one-third to one-half
to reflect more adequately the increases in local tax revenues and
other direct benefits to the communities participating in the program.
For the fiscal year 1962 new obligational authority of $300 million is
recommended.
Urban planning.—The various housing and urban renewal programs
and the Federal-aid highway program have important impacts on the
character and development of our rapidly growing metropolitan areas.
To help assure that these aids make the maximum contribution to
sound community development, the Secretary of Commerce and the
Housing and Home Finance Administrator have established a new
procedure for the joint use of urban planning grants and Federal-aid
highway research and planning funds for comprehensive metropolitan
planning. This procedure is intended not only to produce better
planning for the use of Federal, State, and local funds, but also to
encourage effective coordination and cooperation among the many
local governments and the State and Federal agencies engaged in
metropolitan development activities. To help carry out the new
approach, as well as to aid mass-transit planning and to meet other
expanding requirements, it is recommended that the present statutory
limitations on appropriations for urban planning grants be removed
and that the appropriation for such grants be increased to $10 million
for 1962 from the $4 million appropriated for 1961.
Public housing programs.—By the close of the fiscal year 1962 an
estimated 522,000 federally aided public housing units will be occupied,
and construction will be underway on 49,000 more units. Another
49,000 units will be under contract for Federal contributions but
construction will not yet have been started on these units. In view
of the large number of authorized units not yet under construction,
no additional authorization is recommended in this budget. Ex-
570000—<61
IV
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
penditures for contributions to local authorities will increase in 1962
largely because of subsidies required on newly occupied units.
Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation.—A year ago legislation was recommended to provide needed increases in the insurance
reserve of the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation, which
insures the share accounts of institutions representing the largest
source of home mortgage financing. Because of the continuing rapid
growth of these institutions, the Corporation's reserves are still only
0.66% of the insured liability, and legislation is even more necessary
now. Therefore, it is recommended that the present unnecessarily
high requirement for investment in stock of the Federal Home Loan
banks be reduced, and that insured savings and loan associations be
required to make additional prepayments of insurance premiums of
approximately the amounts of that reduction. The objective should
be to build up the secondary reserves of the Corporation until total
reserves reach 2 % of the insurance liabilities. This proposal would
cause a much more rapid increase in the insurance reserves of the
Corporation, by adding an extra $164 million in 1962. It would
not significantly increase the costs to member associations, but would
allocate more realistically the combined resources of the Home Loan
banks and the Corporation.
Insurance oj private mortgages.—The Federal Housing Administration expects to increase its commitments to insure mortgages
from about 800,000 housing units in the fiscal year 1961 to over
900,000 units in 1962; about 40% of the 1962 commitments will be
mortgages on newly built houses. However, since the present amount
of insurance authority will be used up within the next few months,
prompt action is needed to prevent interruption of this important program. The Congress should remove the present ceiling on this authority so that home buyers, builders, and lenders can count upon the
continued availability of Federal mortgage insurance.
Legislation should also be enacted to make permanent the authority
to insure loans on home improvements, which expires October 1, 1961.
This program, initiated in 1934, has proved to be an important aid to
modernization of existing homes, and its continuance should no longer
depend on periodic congressional action.
Statutory ceilings on interest rates for certain types of mortgages
insured by the Federal Housing Administration, as well as for direct
and guaranteed loans of the Veterans Administration, have from time
to time limited the effectiveness of these programs. In the past, the
Congress has recognized the need for some increased flexibility in
such interest rates in order to attract adequate private capital. In
the present situation, the interest rate ceiling of 5}i% on housing
loans guaranteed by the Veterans Administration is a serious obstacle
to adequate private financing. The similar ceiling on insured mort-
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
gages for rental housing, especially for the new housing program for
the elderly, and the ceiling of 4%% on family housing for members of
the armed services also discourage private financing. As previously
recommended, these ceilings should be increased or removed by the
Congress. The success of the new mortgage insurance program for
nursing homes in obtaining private funds through slightly higher
interest rates illustrates the importance of adequate flexibility in such
rates.
Veterans housing loans.—The last Congress extended the veterans
direct housing loan program of the Veterans Administration for
another 2 years, provided new obligational authority of $150 million
for such loans for each of the fiscal years 1961 and 1962, and provided
for a 2-year extension of the loan guarantee program for World War
II veterans. The need for continuing the readjustment benefit
programs of direct loans and loan guarantees for World War II
veterans has long since passed.
Changes are recommended in the direct loan program to (1) confine
this program, beginning July 26, 1961, to veterans of the Korean conflict, (2) extend the program for Korean conflict veterans from the
present termination date of July 25, 1962, until February 1, 1965
(the same termination date as for loan guarantees for these veterans),
and (3) finance the extended program from funds already authorized,
augmented by funds from repayment of loans previously made. These
changes will permit a satisfactory program of aid for veterans of the
Korean conflict with expenditures of $85 million in 1962, a reduction
of $15 million from 1961.
Voluntary Home Mortgage Credit Program.—Authority for the Voluntary Home Mortgage Credit Committee expires October 1, 1961.
Under present unrealistic interest rate limitations, this program cannot contribute substantially to the financing of guaranteed home loans
to veterans in remote areas. Other federally insured loans are, however, being placed for borrowers in such areas and for members of
minority groups. The Committee is also now trying to find private
financing for mortgages eligible for special assistance by the Federal
National Mortgage Association. This program should, therefore, be
extended for another 2 years.
Mortgage purchases.—Mortgage financing requirements for housing
for displaced families, for elderly families, and in urban renewal areas,
will continue to increase in 1962. Despite the progress made by the
Voluntary Home Mortgage Credit Committee in finding some private
financing, the bulk of the financing needs for these types of housing
will continue to be met through mortgage purchases by the Federal
National Mortgage Association under its special assistance functions.
The Association will require, for this purpose, additional new obliga-
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
tional authority of $250 million in 1962; the legislation should authorize provision of this amount through the appropriation process.
Through its secondary market operations trust fund, the Federal
National Mortgage Association will purchase an estimated $1 billion
of insured and guaranteed mortgages of all types at market prices.
Unlike the special assistance program, which is wholly financed by the
Federal Government, almost all of the necessary funds for secondary
market operations will be provided by sale of debentures to private
investors and by purchase of common stock by mortgage sellers. New
obligational authority of $35 million, however, is estimated to be
required for additional Treasury subscriptions to the Association's
preferred stock.
College housing.—Legislation enacted by the last Congress provided
sufficient authority to continue the present college housing program
into the fiscal year 1962. I have previously recommended a new
program to be administered by the Department of Health, Education,
and Welfare to provide Federal assistance for university facilities of
all types through loan guarantees and grants. As a transition to
that new and broader program, new obligational authority of $100
million for college housing loans is recommended for 1962. Together
with funds from existing authorizations, this will permit new loan
commitments of $200 million in 1962.
Promotion and regulation of business.—The Federal Government provides a variety of direct and indirect aids to business
enterprises. At the same time, Federal regulatory agencies and programs enforce competition and regulate monopoly in many specific
areas.
Small business.—Federal assistance to small business will continue
to grow in 1962. Financial aid under the Small Business Investment
Act to both small business investment companies and to State and
local development companies is increasing at a rapid rate. The number of such investment companies is expected to exceed 400 by the end
of June 1962, compared to 109 in June 1960, thus expanding the supply
of private capital available to small businesses. Other loans by the
Small Business Administration will continue at a high level, as will the
efforts to assist small businesses in obtaining a larger share of Federal
procurement and research contracts and in improving management
methods. Special efforts are being made to provide assistance to
firms displaced by urban renewal projects and firms in labor surplus
areas.
Legislation should be enacted to extend the important program of
loans to local development companies, which otherwise expires at the
end of the current fiscal year. In addition, legislation is again re-
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
quested to extend the privilege of simplified filings under the Securities
Act of 1933 to a wider range of securities issues, and thus to facilitate
small business financing.
Area assistance.—The Department of Commerce, with the assistance of 16 other departments and major agencies, has further extended
in the past year the wide range of Federal aids to local communities
suffering from severe and chronic unemployment. However, private
groups and local public officials must provide the primary initiative
in finding successful permanent solutions for the difficult problems of
their specific areas.
For the past 5 years I have repeatedly recommended legislation
which would provide the authority necessary for more effective
Federal assistance without merely substituting temporary Federal aid
for indispensable local leadership. Alternative proposals enacted
by the Congress, which would have been less effective and more expensive, have been vetoed. The Congress is again urged to enact
sound legislation to permit reasonable increases in Federal aid through
a program of loans and grants. This program should continue to be
administered by the Secretary of Commerce to avoid establishment of
an unnecessary new agency. Appropriations of $83 million for 1962
are requested to initiate the expanded Federal program.
Export expansion.—The national export expansion program launched
early last year by the Department of Commerce has already had
considerable success. This budget includes recommendations for additional appropriations to help achieve further increases in exports and
to place greater emphasis on encouraging travel to the United States.
New York World's Fair.-—The Secretary of Commerce, at my request, is developing plans, in anticipation of authorizing legislation,
for Federal participation in the New York World's Fair scheduled to
open in the spring of 1964.
Regulation oj commerce and finance.—Under this budget, the Federal
Communications Commission, the Federal Trade Commission, the
Interstate Commerce Commission, the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the Civil Aeronautics Board will be further strengthened.
The appropriations recommended for these five independent regulatory
agencies will finance a staff 40% greater than at the end of 1956, an
expansion clearly required by the growth of regulated industries, by
new legislative responsibilities, and by the increased complexity of
the problems involved. Numerous improvements in agency operations to simplify procedures and reduce backlogs are anticipated from
a series of management studies made in recent months. The increas-
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
ing workload of these agencies increases the need to adjust or impose
charges on the regulated industries or activities sufficient to cover
the costs of administration.
The antitrust laws should be strengthened by legislation (1) requiring large businesses to notify the antitrust agencies of proposed
mergers, (2) empowering the Attorney General to issue civil investigative demands in antitrust cases when civil procedures are
planned, and (3) authorizing the Federal Trade Commission to seek
preliminary injunctions when it is likely that a proposed merger
would violate the law.
Civil and defense mobilization.—Prudent concern for the protection of the civilian population from hazards in a nuclear world
makes it necessary to recommend increases for 1962 in appropriations
for civil defense. The largest increases for nonmilitary defense will
provide funds for increasing medical stockpiles and for the first fullyear cost of a program begun in 1961 to match State and local costs
for civil defense personnel and administration. Additional funds are
also requested for procurement of radiological equipment and for
strengthening Federal activities in emergency health and manpower
programs.
The Congress and the executive branch have recognized that civil
defense is the joint responsibility of Federal, State, and local governments. As exercise of its partnership, the Federal Government has,
by leadership and example, implemented a national shelter policy,
which recognizes the fallout shelter as the best single nonmilitary
defense measure for the protection of the greatest number of people.
Under this policy the Federal Government has instructed people
in protective measures, conducted a sample survey of existing shelter
capabilities, accelerated shelter research, and constructed prototype
shelters for example and guidance. Moreover, the Congress has been
urged to provide funds for inclusion of fallout shelters in appropriate
new and existing Federal buildings. Funds and appropriate legislation are being requested to accelerate these activities in 1962.
In order to strengthen the program, legislation is being proposed to
require appropriate fallout shelters in certain new private construction
where the Federal Government provides some form of financial
assistance. This legislation will also provide for a 1-year program of
grants to States to assist in the construction of fallout protection
shelters in selected State buildings. Upon the enactment of this
legislation, supplemental appropriations will be required.
AGRICULTURE AND AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES
In the fiscal year 1962, Federal programs for agriculture will
continue to require heavy expenditures for much the same reason
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
as in the immediately preceding years: the lack of
adequate modifications in
the price-support laws to
make them conform to the
increased efficiency and
growing productive capacity of the agricultural industry.

Each year that the current unrealistic price-support program is continued complicates further the production adjustments that will have
to be made before present Government controls over farm operations
can be relaxed. Carryover stocks of wheat continue to rise. Current
indications are that by July 1, 1961, wheat stocks will amount to
about 1.5 billion bushels, which is more than an average year's production and 2% times an average year's domestic consumption.
Carryover stocks of corn and other feed grains have risen each year
since 1952, and by the fall of 1961 are expected to reach 82 million
tons, or about one-half an average year's production. While cotton

carryover stocks are expected to be down slightly by the beginning
of the fiscal year 1962 as compared with a year earlier, the cotton
program continues to be a substantial drain on the budget, principally as a result of the sale of cotton abroad at prices substantially
lower than support levels.
Among the many aspects of the price-support program in need of
major changes, the most urgent is the enactment of realistic price-
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
support legislation for wheat. It is imperative that the Congress
take early action so that farmers can make the necessary adjustments
in their plans. Because of the time lag between enactment of new
price-support legislation and its budgetary impact, legislation enacted
in this session of the Congress can have little effect before the 1963
budget. My previous recommendations for wheat legislation allow
for considerable latitude in method of approach as long as the legislation deals realistically with the problem.
The last session of the Congress did not extend the authority of the
Secretary of Agriculture to bring additional land into the conservation
reserve. Since the rental rates needed to induce farmers to place large
quantities of surplus-producing land in the conservation reserve
depend in large part on levels of price supports, it would be unsound to
attempt to set such rates high enough to compete with the present
unrealistic level of price supports, particularly for wheat. Therefore,
legislation proposed by this administration to extend the conservation
reserve through the calendar year 1964 and to expand the program
from the present level of 28.6 million acres to a maximum of 60 million
acres should be enacted only if satisfactory legislation for wheat is
also enacted. An expanded conservation reserve would not be effective unless largely concentrated in areas producing wheat and other
surplus commodities. For this reason, the Secretary of Agriculture
should be provided with specific authority to give special consideration, in allocating conservation reserve funds, to those States and
regions where curtailment of the production of wheat or other surplus
commodities is consistent with long-range goals for adjusting production.
Stabilization ojjarm prices and income.—In fiscal year 1962, expenditures for price supports and other programs to stabilize farm prices
and income are estimated at $3.4 billion, which is $132 million more
than the amount currently estimated for 1961, and $118 million more
than expenditures in 1960. Expenditures for these programs are not
subject to regular annual budgetary control, since they are determined
mainly by the loan, commodity purchase, and other price-supporting
activities that the Commodity Credit Corporation is required to carry
out under existing laws. In 1962 farm price support and related activities account for about two-thirds of the estimated expenditures
for agricultural programs. The budget estimate assumes that yields
per acre of price-supported crops for the 1961 crop year will be in line
with recent years. It also assumes a continued favorable level of
exports of farm commodities.
This high level of expenditures reflects, directly or indirectly, the
continuation of present price supports in the face of a volume of agri-
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
cultural production that cannot be absorbed by the domestic and world
markets at currently supported prices. Total farm production for
the calendar year 1960 established an all-time record both on an
absolute and a per capita basis. It was 29% above the 1947-49
average, and was achieved with 30% fewer farmworkers and 6 %
fewer crop acres.
Surplus wheat, cotton, corn, rice, and other commodities are being
utilized in our Food for Peace program to promote economic development and common defense and to provide emergency relief for needy
people abroad. The largest part of the program is the sale of farm
commodities for foreign currencies under title I of the Agricultural
Trade Development and Assistance Act of 1954 (Public Law 480).
Because of the size of past sales, particularly a 4-year agreement with
India, additional authority of $1.1 billion is recommended for the
remainder of the calendar year 1961. Titles II and III of this act
provide for donating surplus commodities to foreign governments primarily for emergency relief needs and to private relief organizations in
support of their activities abroad; over 55 million people benefited
this past year from these donations. Continuation of the programs
currently carried on under titles I and II will require legislation this
year to extend them beyond December 31, 1961.
Surplus agricultural commodities are also made available to the
needy at home through the direct distribution program of the Department of Agriculture, which is carried on under the permanent appropriation for the removal of surplus agricultural commodities and
through the Commodity Credit Corporation's surplus disposal operations. In the fiscal year 1960, there were donations of 526 million
pounds of surplus food, valued at $59 million, directly to needy families
in the United States. In October 1960, there were 3.3 million people
in the United States receiving surplus foods through these programs;
additional persons benefited from food donations to the school lunch
program and to institutions providing aid to the needy.
Since the Sugar Act expires on March 31, 1961, prompt legislative
action extending this program is required. In line with my previous
recommendation, the Congress should amend the Act to provide the
President with urgently needed flexibility in the allocation of
quotas.
The National Wool Act, which expires on March 31, 1962, should be
extended, and its financing should be shifted to a direct appropriation
basis.
To conserve fiscal resources and to implement the principle that
identifiable recipients of certain special services should pay for them,
legislation is again proposed to permit the Federal Crop Insurance
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
Corporation to include its administrative expenses in determining
appropriate premium rates for crop insurance.
Rural electrification and telephones.—Expenditures of the Rural
Electrification Administration are estimated at $340 million for 1962,
and new obligational authority of $255 million is recommended,
including $100 million for telephone loans and $145 million for electrification loans.
The Rural Electrification Administration has made a major contribution to the development of rural America. About 97% of our
farms now have central station electric service as compared with 11%
in 1935. The telephone program also is making a real contribution
to a better rural America by improving rural telephone service.
The expanding use of power in the areas served by electric cooperatives, however, requires substantial amounts of new capital each year
to provide additional generating capacity and heavier transmission
and distribution facilities. More than half of the total power sales
by the REA system are made to rural industrial, recreational, and other
nonfarm users. These nonfarm users comprise about 80% of the new
customers being added.
The capital needs of the Rural Electrification Administration are
being financed currently by loans from the Treasury at 2 % interest.
Loans are made to borrowers at this same rate. While special
treatment of these programs through favorable Federal financing
was justified in earlier years, the progress that has been made by the
local systems in achieving the objectives of the Rural Electrification
Act and in developing financial stability indicates that the time has
come to plan for methods of financing other than through the Federal
Government. To that end, legislation should be developed for a
federally chartered institution to finance the future requirements of
the rural electrification and rural telephone programs. Such an
institution should be owned and managed by the REA borrowers
subject to the examination and supervision of the Secretary of Agriculture. To launch the new institution on a sound basis, it should
be assisted initially by a Federal loan, with provision for orderly
retirement of the loan. Future capital needs of the REA borrowers
should be met by the sale of the institution's obligations to the
public. Provision should also be made for loans by the institution
on behalf of the Secretary of Agriculture to borrowers who are unable
to qualify for regular loans.
Farm ownership and operation.—Expenditures for the loan programs
of the Farmers Home Administration are estimated at $231 million
for 1962, compared with $264 million estimated for 1961. Loans are
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
made by the Farmers Home Administration to borrowers who are
unable to obtain credit from other sources at interest rates currently
prevailing in their communities, in order to finance farm ownership
and enlargement, farm operations, and soil and water conservation.
Direct loans for farm ownership and soil and water conservation are
supplemented with private loans insured by the Federal Government.
Legislation previously recommended to simplify, consolidate, and
improve the authority of the Secretary of Agriculture to make these
types of loans should be enacted. Included in this legislation is a
proposal to place the operations of the Farmers Home Administration
on a revolving fund basis.
Authority to make loans under the farm housing loan program
expires June 30, 1961. Extension of this separate farm housing loan
authority is not recommended, since loans similar to the farm housing
loans would be authorized under the general legislation being recommended relating to the loan authority of the Secretary of Agriculture.
Legislation should be enacted, as recommended previously, to
require the States to share a greater part of the costs of farm disaster
relief assistance.
Conservation of agricultural resources.—Expenditures in 1962 under
the conservation reserve program are expected to be $357 million
under existing legislation. If legislation extending and expanding
this program is enacted as proposed in this budget, additional expenditures of $19 million in 1962 would result. Under the proposal,
there would be a net increase of 10.5 million acres during the 1962
program year, bringing the total at the end of that year to 39 million
acres. However, most of the increase in expenditures required for
the 1962 program would not occur until 1963 and later fiscal years.
To the extent that additions of land to the conservation reserve result
in curtailment of the production of price-supported agricultural
commodities, the added expenditures resulting from extension and
expansion of this program will be accompanied by lower outlays for
price supports.
An advance authorization of $100 million is recommended for the
1962 agricultural conservation program. This will affect primarily
the expenditures for the fiscal year 1963. In recent appropriation acts
the Congress maintained this program at a level which far exceeded
my recommendations. As a result, expenditures for the agricultural
conservation program are estimated to be $236 million in 1961 and
$234 million in 1962. The $100 million advance authorization, together with other aids for soil and water conservation, will provide
substantial incentives for the Nation's farmers to meet our highpriority conservation needs.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
Federal cost-sharing assistance in the future under this program
should be concentrated on conservation measures which will foster
needed shifts to less intensive uses of cropland, and assistance should
be eliminated for practices which increase capacity to produce agricultural commodities already in surplus supply. Continuation of
cost sharing for output-increasing practices directly conflicts with the
recommended expansion of the conservation reserve program under
which cropland is removed from production.
New obligational authority of $66 million is recommended for the
upstream watershed programs, including $46 million under the Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act. Of this amount, $10
million is for initiating construction of projects involving an estimated
total Federal cost of $70 million. Expenditures under these programs
are expected to be $65 million in 1962, which is an increase of $12
million over 1961 and $21 million over 1960. New obligational
authority requested for the Great Plains program totals $10 million,
the same as for 1961.
Research and other agricultural services.—Expenditures for research,
education, and other agricultural services in 1962, including $17 million for purchases of foreign currencies to finance research and market
development programs abroad, are estimated at $357 million, which
is an increase of $22 million over 1961. This increase reflects primarily
additional support for the research programs of the Agricultural
Research Service and continuing progress on laboratory construction.
Rural development.—The rural development program inaugurated
by this administration is successfully stimulating economic progress
and growth in low-income farming areas of the Nation. It is becoming widely accepted as a major national approach to helping families
in these areas. By June 30, 1961, it is expected that some 350 counties in 39 States will be participating in the program. Among the
impressive gains reported in participating areas are the following:
(1) new farm crops have been introduced and production on small
farms improved; (2) the number of jobs has increased through the
establishment of new industries and enlargement of others; (3) income
has increased from nonfarm sources such as recreation, tourist services,
and expanded business activities; and (4) educational and training
programs have been inaugurated for those who have little opportunity to enter commercial farming.
The Federal Government supports this program principally through
a redirection and strengthening of existing services and activities.
Emphasis is placed on cooperation among Federal and State agencies
and local groups. In the Department of Agriculture, the program is
conducted as a part of the continuing responsibilities of 10 of its
agencies, with general leadership furnished by the Extension Service,
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
for which an increase of $2 million is estimated in this budget. Other
Federal departments and agencies have accelerated their activities
that contribute to the aims of the rural development program. These
agencies include the Small Business Administration, and the Departments of the Interior, Commerce, Labor, and Health, Education, and
Welfare. All of these activities are carried out under the general
guidance of the Committee for Rural Development Program which
was established by Executive order.
NATURAL RESOURCES
Sound development of our natural resources is necessary to meet
the needs of our growing population and expanding economy. The
budget recommendations for the fiscal year 1962 provide for appropriate Federal participation in the development, conservation, and
use of these resources, in cooperation with State and local agencies
and private interests.
Federal expenditures for natural resources are estimated to be
$2.1 billion in 1962 compared with $2 billion in 1961. These expenditures are higher than in any previous year.
Water resources.—-Approximately two-thirds of the Federal expenditures for natural resources in 1962 will be for water resources
activities. The programs of the Corps of Engineers and the Bureau
of Reclamation will require expenditures estimated at $1.2 billion—
a record level. Of this amount, $1 billion will be spent on construction. This includes $976 million for continuation of work on projects
started in 1961 or prior years, $11 million for first-year expenditures
on 37 proposed new project starts, and $13 million for advance planning of projects needed in later years. A large share of the construction expenditures of these agencies will be for multiple-purpose river
basin projects, including flood control, navigation, irrigation, water
supply, hydroelectric power, and in some cases related recreational
and fish and wildlife benefits.
For the Corps of Engineers, the budget includes appropriations of
$15 million for starting 31 new projects and an additional number of
smaller projects costing less than $400 thousand each. The estimated
total cost of building these new projects is $302 million. Appropriations of $6 million are also recommended to enable the Bureau of Reclamation to begin construction on five new projects, with an estimated
total cost of $141 million, and to make a loan for one small reclamation
project for which the total Federal commitment will be $5 million.
The 1962 program of the Bureau of Reclamation includes protective
works for the Rainbow Bridge National Monument, as required by
law in connection with construction of Glen Canyon Dam.

Engineers.
The previous Congress enacted legislation to authorize negotiation
of an agreement between the United States and Mexico for the joint
construction of Amistad (Friendship) Dam on the Rio Grande, and
appropriated $5 million for this project. The 1962 budget includes
$12 million to finance further work on the dam as soon as the technical
details relating to its construction are approved by the two Governments.

of the Interior on a revolving fund basis, retaining annual review and
control by the Congress.
Net bu4get expenditures of the Tennessee Valley Authority are
estimated at $103 million in the fiscal year 1962. The increase of $48
million over the current year will be largely for construction of power
and navigation facilities. Under the authority to sell revenue bonds,
enacted in August 1959, the TVA issued $50 million of such bonds in
November 1960. The Authority plans to issue an additional $140
million in the fiscal year 1962 which, together with power revenues,
will provide funds for continuing construction of power facilities and
for starting construction of a new steam powerplant in the eastern
part of the TVA power area. Construction will continue on Wheeler
and Wilson locks and on the navigation features of the Melton Hill
project, financed by appropriated funds. The Authority plans to
make a payment of $50 million from power proceeds to the Treasury
in fiscal year 1962, of which $40 million is a dividend and $10
million is a return of Government capital. A similar payment,
estimated at $51 million, is being made in 1961.
The 1961 and 1962 programs of the TVA contemplate the acquisition of certain coal land or mining rights, on which options have been
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
taken, in the eastern portion of its coal supply area. Since it has not
been clearly established that such acquisitions are necessary to assure
an adequate reserve of coal for TVA's operations, I have directed that
these actions not be taken without specific Presidential approval.
Research conducted by the Department of the Interior over the
past several years has reduced substantially the cost of obtaining
fresh water from saline water. Two demonstration plants for conversion of sea and brackish water into fresh water will be completed in
the fiscal year 1962. Appropriations of $3.5 million are recommended
for starting two additional plants in 1962, one at Roswell, N. Mex.,
and the other at a location to be selected on the east coast.
River basin planning commissions.—In addition to the Corps of
Engineers, Bureau of Reclamation, Tennessee Valley Authority,
and International Boundary and Water Commission, several other
Federal agencies participate in phases of water resources programs.
The Department of Agriculture assists local groups in watershed protection and flood prevention; the Department of Health, Education,
and Welfare has responsibility relating to control of water pollution;
and the Federal Power Commission has broad river basin planning
authority in connection with licensing construction of private power
projects. The Fish and Wildlife Service, National Park Service, and
other agencies also participate in certain aspects of water resources
projects. Furthermore, activities of State and local agencies and
private interests in the field of water resources are of increasing
importance. Only with coordinated planning on the part of all groups
concerned can there be assurance that all possible uses of water are
adequately considered.
To provide for comprehensive, coordinated planning, legislation is
being submitted to authorize the President to establish water resources planning commissions as needed in the various river basins or
regions. These commissions would be composed of Presidentially
appointed members from the various Federal agencies and the States.
They would prepare and keep current comprehensive, integrated river
basin plans. This proposed general authority would be an improvement over separate laws such as those which established the two ad hoc
river basin study commissions for the Southeastern and Texas areas.
Cost sharing for local flood protection.—The varied requirements for
financial participation by State and local interests in local flood protection projects have resulted in inequities among the various beneficiaries of such projects. In the case of projects of the Corps of
Engineers, the Bureau of Reclamation, and the Department of Agriculture, non-Federal contributions range from zero to over 60% of flood
protection costs. In previous budget messages, legislation has been
recommended to provide an equitable, uniform minimum of 30%
570000—61
v
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
non-Federal cost sharing for all flood protection projects. Although
the Congress did not act on that proposal, a forward step was taken
in the Flood Control Act of 1960, which provides for a uniform minimum of 20% non-Federal cost sharing on local flood protection projects
of the Corps of Engineers authorized by that act. The Congress is
urged to broaden this action by requiring a minimum of 30% cost
sharing on all local projects providing flood protection benefits which
are authorized in the future for the Corps of Engineers, the Bureau of
Reclamation, and the Department of Agriculture.
Public domain and Indian lands.—In the fiscal year 1962, expenditures for the conservation and development of the public domain lands,
administered by the Bureau of Land Management, will be $43 million,
somewhat higher than in 1961. Receipts from grazing fees, timber
sales, and mineral leases on the public domain lands, including the
Outer Continental Shelf, are estimated at $221 million in the fiscal
year 1962, an increase of $55 million over the revenues estimated for
the current year. A portion of the estimated increase will result from
the increases authorized last year in the fees for noncompetitive oil
and gas leases. Some of these revenues are shared with States and
counties. Shared-revenue payments to these governmental units in
1962 from the public domain lands amount to $58 million.
Estimated expenditures of $63 million for the management of
Indian lands in the fiscal year 1962 include $33 million for construction
of roads; for irrigation facilities; and for buildings and utilities, mainly
additional school facilities for Indian children who reside on lands
held in trust by the United States.
Forest resources.—Some increases in expenditures of the Forest
Service in 1962 are needed to carry forward its long-range development program for the national forests. These increases will be for
forest roads and trails and for forest protection and utilization,
including forestry research, fire prevention, and recreational facilities.
A supplemental appropriation of $69 million is being requested for the
fiscal year 1961 to enable the Forest Service to pay for those portions
of the forest lands of the Klamath Indians which are not sold to competitive bidders by April 1, 1961 (as required by Public Law 85-731),
with expenditures estimated in the fiscal year 1962. These increases
will be offset in part by an expected decrease from the expenditures
of $33 million in 1961 for fire fighting in the national forests—the
highest annual expenditures on record.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
Management of the national forest lands yields substantial revenues,
mostly from timber sales and grazing permits. These receipts—which
are in addition to the amounts cited earlier under public domain
lands—are estimated at $156 million in the fiscal year 1962. Shared
revenue payments to the States in 1962 are estimated at $29 million.
Legislation is recommended to provide authority for the Secretary
of Agriculture to complete acquisition of the remaining lands in the
Boundary Waters Canoe Area of the Superior National Forest in
order to preserve this unique wilderness area for public use.
Mineral resources.—Amendments to the Helium Act during the last
session of the Congress authorize a long-range program for conserving
vital helium resources. Under these amendments, effective March
1, 1961, private industry will be encouraged to finance, build, and
operate plants to recover helium for sale to the Department of the
Interior. Where necessary, the Secretary of the Interior may take
direct steps to conserve this important resource. The program is
to be financed from, borrowing authority, subject to the appropriation
process. Supplemental borrowing authority of $12 million for the
fiscal year 1961 is recommended so that the Bureau of Mines can
start the program promptly, and provision is made in the 1962
budget to augment this initial amount by $15 million.
The Bureau of Mines will continue its research on improved methods
of production and utilization of coal and other minerals. Under
recent legislation, the Department of the Interior will contract with
educational, trade, and other organizations for research aimed at
early solutions to some of the problems confronting the coal industry.
Recreational resources.—The rapidly expanding use of public recreational facilities is placing great demands on the resources of our
national park system. The estimated increase of $14 million in expenditures of the National Park Service from 1961 to 1962 will provide
for needed maintenance and rehabilitation of the park areas and for
operation of new facilities and areas added to the system in recent
years. Prompt action should be taken on legislation, as recommended
last year, to permit the Secretary of the Interior to acquire three of
the remaining undeveloped seashore areas for the national park system.
Such action will enable these areas to be preserved for public benefit.
The forthcoming report of the Outdoor Recreation Resources
Review Commission will provide a comprehensive survey of outdoor
recreational resources and needs. The report should be useful as a
guide for Federal, State, local, and private interests in their plans for
meeting increasing needs for recreation.
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
Fish and wildlife resources.—Expenditures for fish and wildlife resources in the fiscal year 1962 are estimated at $84 million, an increase
of $9 million over the current year. Part of the increase will be for
management and operation of fish hatcheries and wildlife refuges by
the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife. Outstanding refuges
recently established by the Secretary of the Interior are the Arctic,
Kuskokwim, and Izembek wildlife ranges in Alaska, comprising 11.2
million acres, with unique values as waterfowl breeding grounds and
with wilderness areas of scenic beauty. Increases for the Bureau of
Commercial Fisheries are for construction of oceanographic research
facilities, and for biological and technological research to be initiated
in 1962 under a special foreign currency program to aid the fishing
industry.
General resource surveys.—Expenditures of the Geological Survey
will increase primarily as a result of increased interest and participation by the States in the cooperative programs for topographic and
geological mapping and water resources investigations.
LABOR AND WELFARE
The labor and welfare programs of the Federal Government have
assumed in the last decade a growing role in meeting human needs in
our increasingly complex, urbanized society. These programs provide
manpower, health, education, science, economic security, and welfare
services of great importance to the entire population and also assist
many special groups such as the aged, the children, the disabled, the
unemployed, and the needy.
Budget expenditures for labor and welfare programs in the fiscal
year 1962 are estimated at $4.8 billion, an increase of $276 million
over 1961. In the last decade these budget expenditures have more
than doubled. Labor and welfare benefit payments from the social
security and other trust funds, supported largely by payroll taxes on
employers and employees, have increased fivefold in the same period
to an estimated $19.6 billion in 1962.
Of estimated expenditures of $24.4 billion from budget and trust
accounts for labor and welfare programs for 1962, an estimated $13
billion will be for benefits and services for elderly persons. When
benefits for veterans and others are added, total estimated expenditures in 1962 for benefits and services for persons who are 65 and over
exceed $16 billion.
New obligational authority recommended for 1962 for labor and
welfare programs in the budget totals $5 billion, and is $88 million
more than estimated for the current fiscal year. The largest program
increase is for public assistance, including medical care for the aged.
The proposed appropriations for hospital construction grants are lower
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
than the amounts enacted
for 1961, but expenditures
will increase by $13 million as a result of commitments under obligational
authority provided in prior
years. Recommended appropriations, as well as
estimated expenditures,
for programs to assist federally affected school districts are reduced for 1962
in view of the modifications proposed in those
programs.
Education.—The vitality of our democracy and
the productivity of our
economy depend in large
measure on the development of our human res o u r c e s through an
effective educational system. Primary responsibility for education rests
with the local communi ties
and States and with private institutions and
groups. The strength of
our American educational
system flows from its freedom ajid this broad basis
of support.
Thus, the
Federal role in education
is properly a supplementary one, limited primarily
to providing assistance
where there is a special
national concern. For
such assistance, the Federal Government will
spend in all budget categories about $1 billion in
1962 for educational activities, including college

MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
housing loans and readjustment aid to veterans, but excluding indirect
assistance through research contracts and grants.
In the last few years, it has become increasingly clear that the
national interest requires an expansion of Federal activities in the
field of education. Accordingly, I recommended in 1958, and the
Congress enacted, the National Defense Education Act to assist
students, particularly those interested in science, mathematics, and
languages, and to help States improve school facilities and services.
I have also recommended repeatedly and again recommend the enactment of temporary legislation to provide Federal assistance for
construction of primary and secondary school classrooms and for
construction of college classrooms and supporting facilities.
As outlined in last year's budget message, the proposed program
would stimulate and assist in the construction of $3 billion of public
elementary and secondary schools in the next 5 years by a Federal
commitment to pay half the debt service (principal and interest) on
school bonds. The cost to the Federal Government over a 30-year
period would be about $2 billion. To help institutions of higher
education finance construction of required facilities, the legislation
would authorize a 5-year program which would provide (1) Federal
guarantees of principal and interest on $1 billion of non-tax-exempt
bonds to be sold by colleges to private investors and (2) Federal
grants, payable over 20 to 35 years, of 30% of the principal of $2
billion of bonds to be issued by colleges. The aggregate Federal cost
of the aid to institutions of higher education would be about $600
million.
The precise requirements for Federal aid to local school districts
are difficult to determine because of the inadequacy of available
information on the classroom needs of districts in various parts of the
country and on their financial capacity to meet these needs. Accordingly, funds are included in the budget for improvement of education
statistics, including data on local school construction requirements
and the actions local communities and States are taking to meet them.
National Science Foundation educational activities—Expenditures of
$69 million in 1962 are estimated for graduate fellowships in science
and mathematics and for other programs to train new scientists, to
improve the teaching of science and mathematics, and to stimulate
interest in scientific careers. This represents more than a fourfold
expansion in the training programs of the National Science Foundation in 5 years.
Schools in federally affected areas.—The Federal Government has
recognized an obligation to assist school districts in which enrollments
are significantly increased by its activities. Legislation for this purpose was enacted as a temporary measure during the Korean emer-
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
gency. However, legislation providing aid to districts with children
whose parents both reside and work on Federal property was made
permanent in 1958. The budget provides funds required to meet
Federal obligations under this program.
The programs of assistance to school districts on behalf of pupils
whose parents work on Federal property but live on private taxable
property expire on June 30, 1961. This budget includes $93 million
to cover the cost of extending the program for operating grants, but
on a modified basis which would discharge more equitably than the
expiring legislation the Federal responsibility to these districts. In
the case of construction grants, where general aid for needy districts
is again proposed, no separate provision is included for continuing the
special program for federally affected districts. It is recommended,
furthermore, that the Congress defer consideration of any extension
legislation until after it has considered and enacted the broad program
of Federal aid for school construction which is being recommended.
The Congress would then be in a better position to determine the
kind of support which should be provided to discharge the Government's obligations to these areas.
Defense education program.—The National Defense Education Act,
which will be in its fourth year in 1962, the last under the current
authorization, has provided outstanding assistance to American
education. Expenditures under this act in 1962 are estimated to be
$190 million, an increase of $29 million from 1961. The proposed
1962 appropriation of $194 million will provide modest increases
for fellowships, language and cultural training centers, counseling
institutes, and area vocational programs. The amount requested for
student loans for 1962 is estimated at the 1961 level pending further
information as to the rate of applications.
I am again recommending repeal of the provision of the National
Defense Education Act that requires a student seeking aid to supply
an affidavit stating that he does not believe in or belong to any organization that teaches the illegal overthrow of the Government. This
requirement is unwarranted and discriminatory.
Science and research {including libraries and museums).—The
advancement of our national security and welfare depends in great
measure upon the strength and progress of American science. The
Federal Government plays a major role in the development of the
Nation's scientific capacity through the research programs of many
agencies.
Expenditures for promotion of science, research, libraries, and museums in 1962 are estimated to be $251 million, which is $48 million
more than in 1961 and over three times the amount 5 years earlier.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
In addition to these figures, there are large amounts of expenditures
for research and development included in other functional categories.
New scientific knowledge which stems from basic research is indispensable to the technological progress of modern industrialized society.
Expenditures of $119 million are estimated for general purpose basic
research grants by the National Science Foundation, chiefly for
research projects and facilities, including the support of national research centers and the improvement of graduate school laboratories.
This represents an increase of $29 million over 1961 and a sevenfold
expansion in these activities in 5 years. Many other agencies are engaged in the support and conduct of basic research where it is recognized that such fundamental research is important and desirable in
the attainment of their objectives.
Increased funds are included in the budget for the National Bureau
of Standards, particularly for the completion of the major laboratories
and service buildings at its new Gaithersburg, Md., site. Expansion
is also provided in the regular scientific program of the Bureau, including initiation of a program for research projects abroad financed
with foreign currencies which the Government holds in excess of its
normal needs.
Certain scientific areas of broad national interest have been given
special attention in recent years by the Federal Council for Science
and Technology. These include long-range programs for oceanog^
raphy, high-energy physics, and the atmospheric sciences, which will
be further expanded under this budget. Part of the financing of these
activities is included in other functional categories.
The scientific program for the Antarctic is developed, financed, and
managed by the National Science Foundation with logistic support
from the Department of Defense. Under this program the United
States is cooperating with many other nations in the peaceful development of the Antarctic.
Government statistical services.—An estimated $56 million in obligations is provided throughout the budget for gathering, processing, and
disseminating the statistical information which is used by Government, private institutions, and individuals in policy formulation and
decision making. Increases in 1962 for collecting the regular recurring
statistics are more than offset by the decrease from the funds required
in 1961 for the Eighteenth Decennial Census.
Further improvement is planned in the scope and reliability of
statistical data on current economic and social conditions. These
include information on retail and service trade, foreign trade, manufacturing, construction, crop and livestock production, prices, manpower utilization, characteristics of the unemployed labor force,
health and medical care, vital statistics, and education. Provision
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
is also made for completion of the processing and publication of the
results of the 1960 decennial census, for taking the 1962 Census of
Governments, for planning the 1963 economic censuses, and for
continuing a substantial portion of the work, begun over a year ago,
looking toward a major revision of the Consumer Price Index.
Labor and manpower.—The manpower programs of the Department of Labor and other labor agencies help maintain an efficient
labor market and a healthy national climate in labor-management
relations.
Employment security.—Of particular importance are the job placement services and unemployment compensation payments made
through the State employment security offices. In addition to general
job placement services, farm people are assisted in finding industrial
work and workers in depressed areas are helped in finding jobs in
other areas.
Last year the administration proposed, and the Congress enacted,
amendments to the Social Security Act that placed Federal receipts
and expenditures for the employment security program on a trust
fund basis starting July 1, 1960. This is the same arrangement that
is used for other social insurance programs. Expenditures for this
program are now expected to exceed the 1961 tax receipts, and the
Treasury, as authorized by present law, will advance to the trust
fund the additional $36 million needed in 1961. This advance will
be repaid with interest in 1962 from the excess of receipts which will
come from the increased Federal unemployment tax rate taking effect
on January 1, 1961, from 0.3% to 0.4% of covered payrolls.
Based on the level of claims for unemployment compensation, this
budget estimates $41 million more than enacted to date for the limitation on 1961 grants to States for administering unemployment insurance and employment services. Together with the $326 million
already enacted, this brings the estimated 1961 requirement to $366
million, which is in excess of the $350 million annual ceiling established
by the Social Security Act Amendments of 1960. In view of the
number of workers now filing claims for unemployment compensation,
it is necessary to ask the Congress to remove this ceiling so that adequate funds can be provided to pay claims promptly.
Last year, coverage of unemployment compensation was extended
to about 60,000 additional workers, but further legislation is still
needed to extend unemployment compensation to some 3 million
workers, most of whom are employed in small businesses employing
fewer than 4 workers each. Such action, together with action by
States to increase the amount and duration of unemployment compensation benefits, would provide more adequately against economic
hardship for the Nation's work force. This program has proved to
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
be one of the most successful means for combining the interest of
the economy as a whole with the interest of the individual worker.
Other labor programs.—In the last several years the operating
programs of the Department of Labor have been strengthened by
additional funds and new legislation. The 1962 budget provides
an increase of $4 million in appropriations to strengthen further such
activities of the Department as the enforcement of the Labor-Management Reports Act and the statistical and research programs of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Last year the Secretary of Labor endorsed expanded coverage and
a moderate adjustment in the level of the minimum wage under the
Fair Labor Standards Act. This recommendation is repeated. Legislation should also be enacted to make the Welfare and Pension Plan
Disclosure Act more effective. Legislation is again proposed to assure
equal pay for equal work and to improve the laws relating to hours of
work and overtime pay on Federal construction projects.
Health.—Americans enjoy a high standard of health service.
About three-quarters of the more than $25 billion devoted annually
to health services and facilities in this country is being spent through
private channels. However, State and local as well as Federal
agencies also play an important role.
Promotion ojpublic health.—The Federal Government's contribution
toward improved health care for the American people has been
increasing rapidly in recent years. Expenditures for the promotion
of public health in 1962 are estimated at $1.1 billion, more than twice
the amount spent only 5 years earlier. Total Federal expenditures
for all health programs in the various categories of this budget (including military and veterans hospitals) are about $4 billion.
In 1962, expenditures by the National Institutes of Health for
medical research and training will represent about half the total
spent for promotion of public health. The programs of the National
Institutes will have multiplied more than threefold from 1957 to 1962.
The budget for 1962 recommends appropriations of $540 million
for the National Institutes, compared to the $560 million enacted
by the Congress for 1961. While this is $20 million less than the 1961
appropriation, it actually represents a substantial program increase
for medical research and training. The reduction results from the
elimination in 1962 of nonrecurring projects and from the transfer
of programs to other parts of the Public Health Service which were
included in the total for the National Institutes of Health for 1961.
These decreases more than offset increases for new research activities.
Expenditures by the Institutes will rise by an estimated $76 million
in 1962.
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
Appropriations of $153 million for hospitals, mainly construction
grants, are recommended for 1962. Although this is less than the level
of appropriations for 1961, it will not result in a decrease in federally
assisted hospital construction. On the contrary, it is anticipated that
expenditures in 1962 for this program will be at an alltime high because
of the prior authorizations and the volume of construction which has
been initiated but not yet completed. The appropriation recommended for 1962 will permit initiation of new projects for general
hospital beds, which, together with construction not federally assisted,
will be sufficient to provide for growth in population, cover current
obsolescence, and reduce the backlog by over 5,000 beds. The 1962
appropriation will also permit starting the same volume of new projects for specialized facilities for long-term care as is provided for in
the appropriation for the current year. In recognition of the need
for medical care facilities and the continuing rise in the cost of hospital services, new legislation is proposed to encourage coordinated
community and regional planning of hospital facilities, to augment
research on design and operation of hospitals, and to permit use of
grants for high priority modernization projects.
Federal grants for construction of health research facilities in the
last 5 years have materially helped expand our Nation's medical research capacity. This budget continues appropriations for this purpose at the full authorization of $30 million.
One of our greatest national health needs is the expansion of existing schools and establishment of new schools to train doctors and
dentists. The shortage of physicians, already a critical factor in the
rising cost of medical care, will become increasingly acute as the population and the demand for medical services increase. The Congress
should at an early date enact legislation to authorize $100 million of
matching grants over a 5-year period to stimulate construction of
additional medical and dental school facilities.
Legislation should also be enacted to authorize a loan guarantee
program to facilitate the construction of clinics for the group
practice of medicine and dentistry. The sharing of such clinics
by groups of physicians and dentists is economical in terms of reducing
capital expenditures for such purposes and leads to more complete
care for the patient by enabling the practitioners to combine their
diverse skills.
In our urbanized and industrial society, environmental and community health is assuming increasing importance. Appropriations of
$104 million for 1962 are proposed for Public Health Service activities
in these fields. Increased funds are provided to augment the research
and operating arms of the Public Health Service in the fields of air
pollution, water pollution, community sanitation, and radiological
health control activities. Larger amounts are also proposed for
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
community health service activities to make the benefits of improved
medical knowledge more widely and quickly available. Legislation
is again recommended to authorize greater Federal leadership in
combating air pollution.
The budget also includes an appropriation of $50 million for construction of waste treatment works, the full amount authorized
for this program. These funds will help stimulate local action to
correct immediate pollution problems. The control of water pollution
is principally a local responsibility and requires greater financial and
enforcement efforts by local interests. The Federal Government can
most appropriately assist State and local governments through legislation (1) to strengthen its enforcement powers under the Federal
Water Pollution Control Act and (2) to provide flexibility assuring
that highest priority is given to waste treatment construction grants
for projects which contribute to the reduction of pollution of interstate
and coastal streams. Legislation to accomplish these and related
objectives should be enacted by the Congress.
Of daily importance to each of us is the work of the Food and Drug
Administration in establishing and enforcing standards of safety
for food and drugs. The 1962 budget continues a long-standing
policy of strengthening this agency, which in 1962 will spend three
times as much as it did 5 years earlier.
Legislation should be enacted to transfer Freedmen's Hospital to
Howard University and to provide for construction of a new teaching
hospital. Such legislation would give essential support to Howard
University's program of medical education and end the divided
responsibility and control now existing.
Social insurance and other welfare.—Since the Social Security Act first became law in 1935, the United States has made great
strides in its public income maintenance programs, both under the social
security system and other public retirement systems. Today 93%
of our workers are protected under the basic old-age, survivors, and
disability insurance program or under other Federal or State-local
retirement systems. To assist the unemployed we also have the
Federal-State unemployment insurance system, and the Federal
Government further provides or helps finance assistance to needy
groups through other programs.
In 10 years the benefit payments made because of loss of income due
to old age, death, disability, or unemployment under Federal, State,
and local programs have trebled, rising in the calendar year 1960
to approximately $26 billion, of which about $24 billion was paid
from federally administered or federally aided programs. Benefits
were paid during the calendar year 1960 to an average of more than
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
20 million families or single persons. The cost of these benefits, 6 %
of our national income, is funded from employee and employer contributions and taxes. Benefit payments and taxes under laws already
in effect will increase greatly over the years.
Social insurance.—The Federal old-age, survivors, and disability
insurance system now covers 9 out of 10 American workers and their
families. In fiscal year 1962 it will pay $12.9 billion in benefits to an
average of 16.5 million people of all ages, including 12 million persons
aged 65 and over. Coverage should be extended to Federal civilian
employees and self-employed physicians, the largest groups of regularly employed persons in our economy not now covered by this system.
Benefit payments and administrative costs are paid from trust funds
supported by payroll taxes shared equally by workers and employers
and from contributions of the self-employed. The combined employer-employee rate is now 6 % of covered payrolls. Under present
law it will rise by steps to 9 % in calendar year 1969. Expenditures
for the administration of this vast insurance system will be increased
in fiscal year 1962 to cope with the increased workloads resulting from
extension of disability protection to workers below age 50 and from
other amendments enacted by the last Congress.
Public assistance.—Total Federal expenditures for public assistance
and medical aid in 1962 under existing law are estimated to increase
by $128 million over 1961, largely reflecting the cost of the newly
enacted medical assistance program for the aged. In 1962, the Federal share of payments for an average of 6.3 million recipients is estimated to be $2.3 billion, which is 58% of the total. Caseloads for
old-age assistance and aid to the blind are declining moderately, while
caseloads for aid to dependent children and aid to the permanently
and totally disabled are increasing.
Medical care for the aged.—In recent years, the American people
have greatly improved their ability to obtain and pay for medical care
through private and nonprofit health organizations. This approach
has produced excellent results and should be preserved.
However, some aged persons are finding it increasingly difficult to
pay for the medical services which they require. Medical and institutional care for the aged financed by public funds (Federal, State,
and local) is currently estimated to cost over $1 billion annually.
The last Congress authorized substantial expansion in Federal assistance for medical care of the aged through (1) increased Federal participation under the regular old-age assistance program and (2) a new
program of medical assistance for the aged who are not recipients of
public assistance but who nevertheless require aid to pay their medical
and hospital bills.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
In the 1962 budget, $400 million is included in the amount shown for
public assistance for the old and the new programs of medical care for
the aged. There will be a substantial increase in these expenditures
in future years under existing law as additional States participate in
these programs.
Extension of medical care assistance to the aged through a voluntary program under Federal-State-local auspices—as authorized by
the Congress—is sound national policy both from a fiscal standpoint
and from the standpoint of encouraging the widest participation of
private as well as public agencies in the improvement of medical care
for this group. However, under the program approved by the Congress many of the aged will still not be able to obtain needed protection against catastrophic hospital and medical expenses even though
under ordinary circumstances they are able to pay their normal medical bills. The Congress is therefore urged to broaden the existing
program in keeping with the recommendations which were made by
this administration last spring. This would further increase the
number who receive assistance.
Public action in providing assistance for medical care and the
sharply rising costs of hospital and medical care underline the need for
more adequate information regarding medical costs and the best
methods of organizing to meet them. This budget provides for
augmented research in medical economics under the Department of
Health, Education, and Welfare. Likewise, it expands the related
program of research and demonstration projects on causes of dependency for which appropriations were first authorized last year.
Military service credits.—Both, the Railroad Retirement Act and the
Social Security Act provide that military service during certain periods
of military conflict should be counted toward the rights of employees
in determining benefits even though the employee made no contribution during this period. As has been previously indicated, it is
appropriate for the Federal Government to reimburse the trust funds
for the cost of benefits paid on the basis of such military service credits.
But it is not sound policy for the Government to pay more than the
true cost of such benefits or to pay both the railroad retirement and
old-age and survivors and disability insurance trust funds for the same
military service credits, as the present law requires.
Under statutes now in effect the Federal Government has paid the
railroad retirement account an estimated $400 million more than the
estimated cost of military service benefits. At the same time the
Federal Government is obliged to reimburse the old-age and survivors
and disability insurance trust funds for an estimated $450 million for
military service benefits. The Congress is again urged to enact legislation to recover the overpayments to the railroad retirement account
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
and to transfer them to the social security trust funds to cover the
Government liability. Pending action on such legislation, no appropriations are included in this budget for military service payments to
these trust funds.
Other welfare services.—Between 1950 and 1960, the number of
disabled people rehabilitated annually through the Federal-State rehabilitation program increased by 48%, to 88,000. The budget for
1962 includes enlarged appropriations of $97 million for this program,
mostly for grants to State agencies for the rehabilitation of an estimated 103,000 persons.
The authorization for the special milk program, financed by the
Commodity Credit Corporation, expires June 30, 1961. Appropriations are recommended in this budget to reimburse the Corporation
for costs of the 1960 and 1961 operations. This program was originally established as a temporary measure to aid the dairy industry.
An evaluation presently under way in the Department of Agriculture
will provide a basis for determining the proper level of the program.
Pending the results of this evaluation, an appropriation of $95 million
is included under proposed legislation to provide for a continuation of
the special milk program in 1962 through a regular annual appropriation. Including this amount, grants to the States through the school
lunch and special milk programs of the Department of Agriculture
would be $250 million in 1962.
Our society must continue to encourage all our citizens to achieve
the maximum degree of self-realization and economic independence.
There are two large groups which as a nation we have recognized
must be given special attention—the 16 million aged persons and the
65 million children and young people under 18. A White House
Conference on Children and Youth was held last spring. Widespread
local and State preparations have been made also for this month's
White House Conference on Aging. Such conferences can help State,
local, and Federal agencies, as well as private organizations and
individuals, to increase opportunities for the aged and for the youth
of our land.
VETERANS SERVICES AND BENEFITS
Budget expenditures for veterans programs are estimated to total
$5.3 billion in 1962, which is $69 million more than in 1961. Continued increases in pensions for non-service-connected disabilities and
deaths and in costs of medical care are expected to be largely offset
by a decrease in readjustment benefits for veterans of the Korean
conflict.
Expenditures for pensions are estimated to increase in 1962 principally because World War I veterans and survivors of World War II

ing end of this second
historic venture in providing readjustment assistance for wartime service. Henceforth, the bulk of the veterans
expenditures will be for pensions, compensation, and medical care
benefits. Because of the growth in non-service-connected disability
and survivor pension costs, veterans expenditures will continue to
increase for many years under laws now in effect.
In the 6-year period 1957-62, annual pension, compensation, and
medical care expenditures will have risen by over $1 billion. This
increase is in part the result of liberalizations in pension laws
and improved standards of medical care. It also results from the
advancing age of our veterans, which makes more of them or their
survivors eligible for benefits. The trends are illustrated by the fact
that from 1957 to 1962 there will be a net increase of 750,000, or about
20%, in disability and survivor cases on the rolls. Of the 22% million
living veterans, 1 out of every 7 will be receiving compensation or
pension benefits at the end of 1962.
An increasing proportion of the total expenditures of the Veterans
Administration is attributable to disabilities, diseases, or deaths not
related to military service. Between 1957 and 1962, non-serviceconnected costs will increase by 70%, rising from less than one-third
to nearly one-half of all budget expenditures for veterans services
and benefits.
This trend raises serious questions about the further expansion of
veterans programs, particularly since veterans, their dependents, and
survivors of veterans total about 80 million people or over two-fifths
of our total population. The improvement in recent years of general

welfare programs, for which veterans as well as others are eligible,
coupled with the improvements in veterans programs, has reduced the
justification for providing additional special benefits to veterans on
the basis of non-service-connected factors. Any further expansion
of non-service-connected benefits would create serious inequities of
treatment between veterans and others in our population. I particularly oppose measures which would increase or make available nonservice-connected pensions for veterans of World War I contrary to
the principle of need incorporated in the Veterans' Pension Act of 1959.
Readjustment benefits.—Expenditures for readjustment assistance,
estimated in 1962 at $205 million, continue their decline from a postKorean high mark of about $900 million in 1957. The principal
reduction is in the education and training program, in which the
average number of Korean conflict veterans participating will be
reduced to 85,000 in 1962, compared to 288,000 in 1960 and 170,000
in 1961.
The previous Congress extended until July 25, 1962, the home loan
guarantee program as it applies to veterans of World War II. The
direct loan program was similarly extended for both Korean conflict
veterans and World War II veterans. It is clear that continuation of
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
direct loan assistance and of loan guarantee assistance is no longer
required to help World War II veterans in their readjustment to
civilian life 15 years after the end of that war.
Veterans, like other citizens, can and should participate in the
regular housing programs when their special readjustment needs
resulting from military service have passed. The loan guarantee
program for World War II veterans should therefore be terminated as
of July 25, 1961. Changes proposed in the veterans direct loan
program have been described with other housing programs elsewhere
in this message.
Legislation is again recommended to provide vocational rehabilitation for peacetime ex-servicemen having substantial serviceconnected disabilities. This would add to other benefits which the
Federal Government provides peacetime ex-servicemen, such as
unemployment compensation, employment service, and reemployment rights. On the other hand, there is no justification for the
extension of special educational or housing benefits to peacetime exservicemen. Such benefits cannot be justified by conditions of military
service and are inconsistent with the incentives which have been
provided to make military service an attractive career for capable
individuals.
Compensation and pensions.—Expenditures for service-connected
death and disability compensation benefits continue a slow decline
from their 1959 peak as compensation rolls are reduced by the deaths
of veterans or their widows and by the transfer of many aging veterans
to pension rolls. These decreases are offset in small part by the
addition of veterans of the Korean conflict and of peacetime ex-servicemen or their survivors. Compensation will be paid to an average of
2,397,000 veterans and survivors of veterans in 1962 compared to
2,410,000 in 1961 and 2,428,000 in 1960.
The continued rise in expenditures for non-service-connected
pensions, however, will more than offset the decline in compensation
payments. Approximately half of all World War I veterans over 65
will be receiving pensions by the end of 1962, and the pension rolls
will carry an average of nearly 2 million veterans and survivors in
1962. The Veterans' Pension Act of 1959 is expected to increase
expenditures by adding over 100,000 new beneficiaries to the rolls at
an estimated additional cost of $77 million in 1961. These additional
expenditures also reflect higher rates for many veterans on the rolls
before July 1, 1960.
Hospitals and medical care.—The budget includes expenditures of
approximately $1 billion for hospital and medical care for eligible
veterans in 1962, an increase of $43 million over 1961. The increase
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
will permit continued improvement in the quality of medical care in
the hospitals and clinics. The new 1,000-bed hospital at Brecksville,
Ohio, is scheduled to be opened in 1962 and the new Palo Alto, Calif.,
hospital addition will be fully activated. Hospital and domiciliary
care will be provided for an average of 141,500 beneficiaries per day
in Veterans Administration, contract, and State facilities, and a total
of 3,622,000 visits for medical services are expected to be made by
veterans to outpatient clinics and to private physicians on a fee basis.
Hospital construction.-—An appropriation of $75 million is proposed
for 1962, the same as for 1961, as the second step in carrying out a
12-year hospital modernization program of $900 million initiated in
1961. Of the 1962 appropriation, $26 million will be for construction
of a 1,250-bed replacement hospital at Wood (Milwaukee), Wis.,
$11 million will be for replacement of 500 beds at Charleston, S.C.;
the remainder will be for planning a new 580-bed general hospital at
Atlanta, Ga., planning the replacement of approximately 1,000 beds
in the Los Angeles, Calif., area, and for a large number of modernization projects.
Administration.—The general operating expenses of the Veterans
Administration (other than the direct costs of administration of medical, dental, and hospital services) in 1962 are expected to be $162
million, slightly less than in 1961. Reductions in administrative costs
are expected to accrue in future years from the program now under
way to convert the recording and payment of veterans benefits to
automatic data processing equipment.

Market rates of interest have been decreasing from the levels prevailing last year. This makes it possible for the Treasury to pay, on

obligations. The reduction in the public debt during the year,
facilitated by the surplus in the budget in 1960 as well as currently, is
also helping to a lesser extent to reduce interest payments.

Expenditures for general government activities are estimated to

MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
Treasury Department and the Department of Health, Education,
and Welfare have already agreed on the cooperative steps to be taken
for improved administration of the tax laws and the social security
system once such legislation is enacted.
Presidential office space.—There is a pressing need for providing
future Presidents with modern and efficient office facilities. My
experience during the last 8 years strongly confirms the conclusion
of the Advisory Commission on Presidential Office Space that present
facilities "are outmoded, overcrowded, inefficient, and not consistent
with effective and well coordinated management of the highest office
of the executive branch of the Government." The Commission recommended: (1) a new building to house only the White House office on
the site of the existing Executive Office Building; (2) a new building
for other units of the Executive Office; and (3) remodeling of the west
wing of the White House for use as quarters for visiting dignitaries.
As a first step in carrying out these recommendations, the Congress
should provide funds for constructing a new Executive Office Building on the west side of Lafayette Square, and this budget includes
$26 million of new obligational authority for this purpose. More than
two decades ago, the Congress wisely provided new quarters for the
Supreme Court of the United States. In recent years, major improvements and expansions have been made in the facilities necessary to
carry on the increasingly complex and important duties of the legislative branch. The next logical step is to remedy the serious deficiencies
in the office space of the Chief Executive of the United States. I
strongly urge the Congress to give early attention to the needed building as well as to the other recommendations of the Commission.
General property and records management.—New obligational authority of $516 million is requested for the general property and
records management activities of the General Services Administration,
predominantly for management of existing buildings, construction of
new buildings, purchase and distribution of supplies, and custody
of Government records. Of this total, $212 million is for the construction of Federal office buildings, $26 million more than enacted for 1961.
Budget expenditures for new buildings will be $169 million in 1962,
nearly 50% above the 1961 level. This large increase results from an
acceleration in construction initiated in 1959 to remedy some serious
deficiencies of space which interfere with effective operations in many
Federal agencies.
The expanded program of the General Services Administration for
improving the utilization of excess Federal personal property is accomplishing significant results. Transfers of property in 1962 from agencies having an excess to those which can use it are expected to be
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
$350 million valued at acquisition cost, compared to $218 million in
1960.
As a part of an overall program for improving supply management,
the responsibility for the procurement and distribution of subsistence
items for the civilian agencies has been centralized in the Veterans
Administration. Substantial progress has also been made toward
centralizing in the Veterans Administration the procurement and distribution of medicines, drugs, and pharmaceuticals for the civilian
agencies. Progress is also being made in transferring from the Department of Defense to the General Services Administration responsibility for managing the supplies of certain items which are used by
civilian agencies as well as by the military services.
Central personnel management and employment costs.—Appropriations of $147 million are recommended in 1962 for the Department of
Labor to provide unemployment compensation for former Federal
civilian employees and ex-servicemen. Another $69 million will be
required for workmen's compensation for present and past Federal
employees. The new obligational authority recommended for the
Civil Service Commission includes $26 million to finance the Government's share of the new health benefits programs for retired Federal
personnel. The remaining appropriations in this category are predominantly for administration of the civil service system.
A long-range policy should be established for financing the civil
service retirement system, which covers over 90% of Federal civilian employment. Previous recommendations to accomplish this objective should be enacted. This legislation would assure continued
availability in the fund of the full amount of the net accumulations
from employee contributions and would establish a definite basis for
meeting the Government's share of the costs consistent with the
principle that its full faith and credit support the authorized benefits.
Under present law, an appropriation of $45 million would be required
for 1962 to finance the cost of civil service retirement benefits enacted
in 1958 for certain retired employees and certain widows or widowers
of former employees. Without this appropriation these benefits could
not be continued. Legislation is again recommended to assure that
in 1962 and later years such benefits are paid from the civil service
retirement and disability fund on the same basis as other benefits,
without specific annual appropriation.
A number of outmoded and inconsistent statutes now regulate the
employment and compensation of retired military personnel in civilian
positions with the Government. We should replace this legal maze
with a single, rational statute which would eliminate unnecessary dual
payments, adequately safeguard the civilian career service, and
permit the Government to hire members of this group possessing
needed skills under conditions that are fair to the individual.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
Efforts must be continued to improve Federal job evaluation and
other pay practices so as to make Federal pay, including that at the
executive level, more comparable with private enterprise. This is
essential to recruit and retain superior personnel for Federal programs,
particularly in the middle and upper professional and managerial
positions, and to overcome the severe competitive disadvantages with
which the Federal Government must now contend in recruiting
personnel.
To help attain this objective, the accuracy of comparisons of Federal
salary rates with private business rates should be improved. Funds
are recommended in this budget for the Department of Labor to
continue its recently expanded surveys which provide annual reports
on salaries currently paid in private business. In time the Federal
Government should make full use of this information as a guide in
fixing salaries for its own officers and employees.
Legislation should be enacted to provide a system of survivorship
annuities for the widows and dependent children of judges of the Tax
Court of the United States comparable to the system already in effect
with respect to the other Federal courts.
Civilian weather services.—The successful launching of meteorological satellites has created vast possibilities for increasing our knowledge
about the atmosphere and for improving daily weather services and
forecasts. To realize some of this potential, an appropriation increase
of $9 million over 1961, to a total of $70 million, is recommended for
the Weather Bureau for 1962. This increase will provide for the
establishment of processing facilities to permit the immediate use of
worldwide cloud data received from satellites, as well as for increased
research in applying this new source of information to improve understanding of atmospheric motion. The budget also continues the
efforts of the past several years to transfer to Weather Bureau appropriations the financing of certain meteorological activities of other
Federal agencies which are national in scope and serve both civilian
and military needs.
Territories, possessions, and District of Columbia.—The expenditures
required to meet the Federal share of the financing of governmental
operations in the District of Columbia will increase substantially in
1962, primarily because of loans authorized in prior years to meet
capital requirements of the area, including a metropolitan sewage
system to connect with the Dulles International Airport.
A constitutional amendment to permit residents of the District to
vote for President and Vice President is now before the States for
ratification. The States should act promptly on this amendment.
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
Another basic step, recommended on many past occasions, would
be the restoration of home rule for the 764,000 District of Columbia
residents. I repeat my recommendation in this respect. Such local
self-government is essential not only to carry out our democratic
principles but also to remove excessive and unnecessary responsibilities
from the Federal Government.
To promote the further development of democratic institutions, and
in keeping with the growth of local self-government, the Congress
should authorize representation of the Virgin Islands and Guam in
the Congress through nonvoting territorial deputies.
Intergovernmental relations.—Federal financial assistance to State
and local governments plays a large role in financing their operations.
In 1962 such aid, including budget and trust funds, will amount to $7.9
billion and account for a substantial portion of total annual State
and local revenues. Continuous attention must be given to FederalState-local fiscal interrelationships so that they reflect the proper distribution of responsibilities. The Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations established in 1959 can make an important
contribution through its work in reexamining intergovernmental relations and fiscal problems.
In this field, a uniform Federal policy is needed (1) defining
immunity from local taxation on the use or possession of Federal
property in the custody of contractors and lessees, and (2) governing
payments in lieu of taxes made by the Government to localities on
certain real properties. Legislation on these matters should be
enacted in accordance with the recommendations made by the
administration in the last session of the Congress, which call for
partial restoration of immunity from taxation of Federal property
in the hands of contractors or lessees and authorization of a system
of payments in lieu of taxation on certain real properties in cases of
local hardship.
Other recommendations.—It is again recommended that the Employment Act of 1946 be amended to make reasonable price stability an
explicit goal of Federal economic policy, coordinate with the goals
of maximum production, employment, and purchasing power now
specified in that Act.
In support of our position of world leadership, legislation is again
recommended to liberalize and modernize our immigration laws.
The quota system should be brought up to date by revising the
methods of determining, distributing, and transferring quotas, and
the total number of immigrants admitted under quotas should be
doubled. A permanent program for admission of refugees should also
replace the inadequate and piecemeal legislation now in effect.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
The enactment of the Civil Rights Acts of 1957 and 1960, the
activities of the Department of Justice in enforcing these statutes,
and the contribution of the Civil Rights Commission in identifying
basic problems and legislative action required, represent significant
progress in the field of civil rights. To permit the Commission to
explore more thoroughly the necessity for further legislation in this
field, its life should be extended for another 2 years. As part of an
effort to extend civil rights in education to all our citizens, the Congress should enact legislation to assist State and local agencies to meet
costs of special professional services needed in carrying out public
school desegregation programs. Also, legislation should be enacted
to establish a Commission on Equal Job Opportunity to make permanent and expand, with legislative backing, the important work of the
President's Committee on Government Contracts.
The seriously congested conditions in the courts require that the
Congress give early consideration to the creation of additional Federal
judgeships as proposed by the Judicial Conference.
It is important that the Congress enact legislation, such as that
passed by the House of Representatives last year, to reimburse Americans for certain World War II property damage.
A system of awards to recognize outstanding civilian achievements
should also be established, as previously recommended.
Legislation should be enacted to incorporate the Alaska Railroad
to place its operations on the same basis as other Federal activities
of this type.
Last spring, legislation was introduced in the Congress to enlarge
and change the boundaries of the site for the National Cultural
Center in accordance with the design for the structure contemplated
as a national center for the performing arts on the banks of the
Potomac. It is important that such legislation be enacted as early
as possible so that the fund-raising activities of the Center's Board
of Trustees may be energetically continued.
I have repeatedly urged construction of a freedom monument
symbolizing the ideals of our democracy as embodied in the freedoms
of speech, religion, press, assembly, and petition. I still believe such
a living, ever-building monument would be fitting.
IMPROVEMENTS IN BUDGETING
The budget process is a means of establishing Government policies,
improving the management of Government operations, and planning
and conducting the Government's fiscal role in the life of the Nation.
Whether that role is increasing, decreasing, or remaining unchanged,

the budget process is perhaps our most significant
device for planning, controlling, and coordinating
our programs and policies
as well as our finances.
Thus, the President and
the Congress will always
need to give attention to
the improvement and full
utilization of the budget
system.

justment which affects
budget expenditures and
budget receipts equally,
and does not affect the budget surplus for any year. This is the
exclusion from the totals of expenditures and receipts, for all years
shown in this document, of certain interfund transactions, mainly
interest payments to the general fund of the Treasury by wholly
owned Government enterprises which have borrowed from the Treasury. The amounts involved continue to be included in the figures for
each function and for each agency, but are deducted in one sum to
reach expenditure totals. Similarly, they continue to be included as
miscellaneous budget receipts of the Treasury, but are deducted to
arrive at the total of budget receipts. Since the beginning of the
present fiscal year, various statements and reports on Government
financial operations have been eliminating these interfund payments
from budget totals.
Steady progress is being made in applying the principles of performance budgeting. In this budget, the appropriation pattern or
activity classifications of several agencies and bureaus have been
improved and greater use is being made of program and workload
measurement data. Cost-type budgets, which present the most
adequate measure of financial performance, are used for more than 80
appropriation accounts for the first time. With these additions,
about two-thirds of the appropriation accounts are now presented on
a cost-type basis.
Funding arrangements—Recommendations placed before the Congress in this budget are again based upon the principle that authority
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
to incur budget obligations and make expenditures should be granted
in appropriation acts, rather than in substantive legislation handled
outside the regular appropriation process. Of course, the budget
totals include—as they have for many years—all of the new obligational authority actually granted each year and the subsequent
spending, no matter what the method by which provided. The
Congress ought to pass upon all new obligational authority in a regular systematic way as part of the appropriation process. We must
never be led into thinking that special funding arrangements, which
are a claim against budget receipts or borrowing, are somehow not a
part of the budget or not a cost to the taxpayers.
From time to time, the Congress has enacted legislation and appropriations under which additional sums become available for obligation
and expenditure annually without further congressional action.
These are so-called permanent appropriations. In a few cases, such
as interest on the public debt, permanent obligational authority may
be desirable. In many other cases, however, permanent appropriations give unnecessary preferential treatment. A complete congressional review is needed of all such provisions of permanent authority,
including those to use borrowed money, to enter into contracts ahead
of appropriations, and to use collections to supplement appropriations.
Those provisions which cannot be fully justified at this time should be
repealed.
It is again recommended that major business-type activities of the
Government be placed on a revolving fund basis, through which
receipts can be used to meet obligations and expenditures, subject to
annual review and control by the Congress. Such a system, which is
presently applied successfully to all of the Government-owned corporations and many unincorporated Government enterprises, provides a clear display of the business-type nature of these activities,
their income or loss from current operations, and the extent to which
they are adding to or using up the Government's capital assets. In
accordance with legislation enacted in response to a previous recommendation, the loan guarantee program of the Veterans Administration is thus presented in this budget. Legislation should be enacted
to provide revolving funds for the Farmers Home Administration,
the Bureau of Reclamation, and the power marketing agencies of the
Department of the Interior.
A few mixed-ownership Government corporations having authority
to draw money from the Treasury or to commit the Treasury for future
expenditures are presently outside the Government's budget system.
This is largely because of the unrealistic and inconsistent distinction
the law now makes between wholly owned and mixed-ownership
Government corporations, even though both may affect the Government's finances. All Government corporations with such authority,
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
namely, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the banks for
cooperatives, and the Federal intermediate credit banks, should be
brought within the flexible budget provisions of the Government
Corporation Control Act, and thus within the normal budgetary and
reporting structure of the Government.
The extensive recommendations made a year ago for the control of
foreign currencies generally were adopted by the Congress, and this
action has proved helpful in obtaining more adequate budget control
of these resources. However, there still remain various special provisions of law, requiring reservations of currencies for certain programs,
that hinder the Government in making the wisest use of the foreign
currencies coming into its hands. They should be repealed. Expenditures of all foreign currencies owned by the Government and used for
its activities should be controlled through the annual budget process
and should be accounted for in the same way as dollar expenditures.
The budget process in the Congress.—Although the President presents
one budget for the entire Government to the Congress each year, the
Congress considers the budget in a multitude of pieces rather than as
a whole. The financing methods outside the regular appropriation
process, already mentioned, are but one phase of this problem.
Another is the tendency to require a double budget process each year
for certain agencies—requiring them, first, to seek legislation to
authorize appropriations annually and, second, to seek their appropriations. The subcommittee arrangement and time schedule for
processing appropriation requests further fragments the budget
process. The complete separation of the handling of tax legislation
from the consideration of appropriations and expenditures adds to the
total problem.
The Congress should therefore provide a mechanism by which
total receipts and total appropriations (and expenditures) can regularly be considered in relation to each other. Further, substantive
legislation with respect to all continuing programs should be written
so that new legislation is not required each year, thus permitting the
budget and appropriation process to proceed in an orderly manner;
In accordance with recommendations of the second Hoover Commission, legislation was enacted in 1958 authorizing the Congress to
establish limitations on accrued expenditures as a means of enabling
more direct control over spending. Limitations were proposed for
selected accounts in the last two budgets, but were rejected by the
Congress without exception. Therefore, and since the law providing
for accrued expenditure limitations expires in April 1962, no such
limitations are proposed in this budget.
MlOMESSAGEOF THE PRESIDENT
Provision oj item veto.—Future Presidents should have the authority
to veto items of appropriation measures without the necessity of
disapproving an entire appropriation bill. Many Presidents have
recommended that this authority be given to our Chief Executive,
and more than 80% of the States have given it to their Governors.
It is a necessary procedure for strengthening fiscal responsibility.
As in the case of other vetoes, the Congress should have the authority
to override an item veto.
In my first budget message to the Congress, I described the philosophy of this administration in the following words:
By using necessity—rather than mere desirability—as the test
for our expenditures, we will reduce the share of the national
income which is spent by the Government. We are convinced
that more progress and sounder progress will be made over the
years as the largest possible share of our national income is left
with individual citizens to make their own countless decisions as
to what they will spend, what they will buy, and what they will
save and invest. Government must play a vital role in maintaining economic growth and stability. But I believe that our
development, since the early days of the Republic, has been based
on the fact that we left a great share of our national income to
be used by a provident people with a will to venture. Their
actions have stimulated the American genius for creative initiative and thus multiplied our productivity.
This philosophy is as appropriate today as it was in 1954. And it
should continue to guide us in the future.
Over the past 8 years, we have sought to keep the role of the Federal
Government within its proper sphere, resisting the ever-present pressures to initiate or expand activities which could be more appropriately carried out by others. At the same time, the record of this
administration has been one of action to help meet the urgent and
real needs of a growing population and a changing economy. For
example, Federal expenditures between 1953 and 1961 for aids to
education have more than doubled; outlays for public health have
more than tripled; civil aviation expenditures have more than quadrupled; highway expenditures are five times the 1953 level; and urban
renewal expenditures are more than seven times as great.
The major increases in spending which have taken place have not
been devoted to the tools of war and destruction. A military posture
of great effectiveness and strong retaliatory capability has been maintained without increasing defense expenditures above 1953, despite
MlO
MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
rising costs. We have, fortunately, been able to direct more of our
public resources toward the improvement of living conditions and the
enlargement of opportunities for the future growth and development
of the Nation.
By applying the test of necessity rather than desirability to the
expenditures of government, we have made significant progress in both
public and private affairs during the past 8 years. And it is significant
that requirements have been met while holding budget expenditures
to a lesser proportion of the national income than in 1953.
The 1962 budget has been designed to promote further advancement
for all of our people on a sound and secure basis. In that spirit, I
commend it to the consideration of the next administration and the
Congress.

INTRODUCTION TO PART I
Part I of the budget contains five summary tables.
Each of these tables is designed to bring together in one
or two pages some overall aspect of the Federal budget.
TYPES OF FUNDS
A basic distinction is made between Federal funds on
the one hand, and trust and deposit funds on the other.
The Federal (Government-owned) funds are of four
types as follows:
The general fund is credited with receipts which are not
earmarked by law for a specific purpose, and is charged
with expenditures that are payable from appropriations
(except appropriations of earmarked receipts) and those
payable from borrowing. Both in number of items and
in amounts, most of the Government's business is transacted through the general fund.
Special funds are those which are established to account
for receipts that are earmarked by law for a specific purpose. They exclude the funds which carry on a cycle of
operations for which there is continuing authority to use
the receipts (as described in the next paragraph). Some
special funds are subject to annual appropriation by Congress. Others are automatically available under the laws
which created the funds.
Public enterprise (revolving) funds are those which finance a cycle of operations, in which the expenditures
generate receipts coming primarily from the public and
available for continuing use. They include nearly all of
the Government-owned corporations, the postal fund, and
various unincorporated enterprises.
Intragovernmental revolving and management funds (including consolidated working funds) are those which are
created to facilitate financing operations within and between Government agencies. They consist of two types—
intragovernmental revolving funds which finance a cycle of
operations, like public enterprise funds but with receipts
primarily from within the Government; and management
funds wbich permit the pooling of advance payments from
two or more appropriations to carry out certain activities.
The other funds, for which the Government serves in a
fiduciary capacity, are of two types—trust funds and deposit funds. They are explained in the introduction to
part III.
BUDGET RECEIPTS, EXPENDITURES, AND SURPLUS
OR DEFICIT
The budget totals and the budget surplus or deficit relate only to the Federal funds, and exclude trust and deposit funds. Tables 1, 2, and 3 are therefore limited to
transactions of the Federal funds.
Basis oj stating budget receipts.—Table 1 includes a
summary of budget receipts. Budget receipts represent
the total received for the general fund and the special
funds, less (a) refunds of receipts and (b) transfers to
trust fund receipts in the five cases where the law provides an indefinite appropriation to a trust fund in an
amount equal to certain tax receipts. Gross receipts and
the deductions are itemized in special analysis B of part IV.
Internal revenue and customs receipts are stated on the
basis of collections received by collecting officers and placed
2
under accounting control. Other receipts are reported
on the basis of confirmed deposits.
Basis oj stating budget expenditures.—Tables 1 and 2 include information on budget expenditures. Such expenditures cover the general fund, the special funds, the
public enterprise funds, and the intragovernmental revolving and management funds. Expenditures for the
public enterprise funds and for the intragovernmental
funds are included in the totals on a net basis—that is,
their collections are deducted from gross expenditures and
the results are the net expenditures. Interagency payments and reimbursements to appropriations are also
netted; that is, to avoid double counting they are treated
only as expenditures of the agency whose appropriation
or fund is ultimately bearing the charge. Some incidental
reimbursements from outside the Government to appropriations are similarly netted out of expenditure figures.
Under the checks-issued basis which is used, expenditures
are reported for the fiscal year in which the checks are
issued, regardless of when the obligation was incurred or
when the goods and services were received. Modifications
in this basis are made as follows: (a) Where payment is
made in cash instead of by check, the cash payment is an
expenditure; (b) where payment is made by the issuance
of debt or by an increase in its redemption value, instead
of by the issuance of checks, such an issuance or increase
is an expenditure; and (c) interest on the public debt,
other than increases in the redemption values of savings
bonds, is reported on an accrual basis.
Debt and investment transactions.—Receipts never include money obtained from borrowing by any type of
Federal fund. Nor are borrowings considered as a deduction in arriving at budget expenditures. Similarly,
retirement of debt is always excluded from budget expenditure figures of all types of Federal funds. The purchase of U.S. Government securities, and redemptions or
sales thereof, are also excluded from expenditure and
receipt figures.
Nonexpenditure transfers.—Transfers to the general fund
of earnings and dividends on capital of revolving funds
are treated as nonexpenditure transactions of the revolving funds and do not affect budget receipts, just as the
investment of general fund capital in a revolving fund
does not affect either expenditures or receipts. None of
these transactions involves any expense. Dividends and
capital returns are called "capital transfers'' and are
reported in special analysis F of part IV.
Deductions jrom both receipts and expenditures.—Certain expenses of revolving funds require payments from
such funds to the general fund; for example, interest on
borrowings. The amounts of such payments are included
in the expenditures for the funds concerned and in the
receipts of the general fund. The amounts are deducted
as a lump sum in arriving at total budget receipts and
total budget expenditures for the Government. Details
are reported in special analysis F of part IV.
Budget surplus or deficit.—The budget surplus or deficit
shown in table 1 represents the difference between the
budget receipts and budget expenditures of a given year.
Cash balances, appropriation balances, and surpluses and
deficits of previous years are not a part of the calculation.
SUMMARY TABLES
NEW
OBLIGATIONAL
AUTHORITY
Table 3 summarizes the new obligational authority—
the total of authority becoming available in a given fiscal
year for entering into new obligations.
The obligation basis.—Expenditures can be made only
pursuant to appropriations or other specific authority
granted by Congress. Government agencies are generally
permitted by law to incur obligations requiring the future
payment of money only when they have an appropriation or other specific authority to do so. Congressional
action on the budget must therefore include authority to
cover obligations expected to be incurred within the fiscal
year, rather than to cover only the expenditures which are
expected to be made during that year in payment of
obligations.
Types of new obligational authority.—There are three
basic types of new obligational authority: Appropriations, contract authorizations, and authorizations to
expend from debt receipts. In addition, there are sometimes reappropriations and reauthorizations.
Appropriations are authorizations to make expenditures
from the general fund of the Treasury or from the various
special funds. In some cases the authority to incur obligations has previously been granted in the form of contract authorizations; in such cases, the appropriation to
permit the payment of such obligations is said to be to
liquidate contract authorizations and it is not a part of
new obligational authority. In all other cases appropriations confer authority both to incur new obligations and
to pay for them.
Contract authorizations are authorizations to incur obligations prior to the enactment of an appropriation. A
contract authorization does not in itself permit the spending of money; hence it must be followed by an appropriation to permit payment of the contracts and other
obligations thus incurred.
Authorizations to expend from debt receipts are authorizations to incur obligations and make expenditures from
borrowed money. Such authorizations may take these
forms: (a) Authorizations for the Treasury to make public
debt receipts available to a given agency or enterprise,
often in exchange for notes of the enterprise; (b) authorizations for a Government-owned corporation to borrow
directly from the public; and (c) cancellation of notes
which have been issued by a Government enterprise and
are held by the Treasury, where the cancellation has the
effect of permitting further expenditures to be made
(through restoring previously used authority to borrow
from the Treasury).
Reappropriations and reauthorizations are actions to
continue available part or all of the unused balances of
prior appropriations or authorizations which would otherwise expire. When the authorizations thus continued had
been previously granted for current operations of the
year, the continuation of their availability into a new year
constitutes new obligational authority.
Distinction between permanent and current authorizations.—Some new obligational authority is permanent, but
most is current. The permanent items are those under
which additional sums become available from time to time
under action previously taken by the Congress; no further
action is required each year. Most permanent authorizations are in force until repealed; a few are in effect for only
a few years as specified in the law. The current authorizations are those enacted by Congress in or immediately
preceding each fiscal year.
3
PROPOSED FOR LATER
TRANSMISSION
Tables 1, 2, and 3 identify in separate columns the
portion of receipts, new obligational authority, and
expenditures which are anticipated under supplemental
budget items, not provided for in the appropriation text
in this budget, but planned for formal transmittal to the
Congress later. Such estimates include, in addition to
the various items which are identified in part II, an
"allowance for contingencies" to cover items which cannot be foreseen now but which may be transmitted later
if the need arises. Congressional action upon this allowance may be requested later, not at a single time nor as a
single lump-sum item, but in the form of a number of
specific appropriations for individual items.
As a general rule, where legislation is proposed to extend
or renew the authorization for current programs, this
budget includes, in part II, recommendations for the necessary new obligational authority in the form of detailed
estimates ready for congressional consideration when
action on the authorizing legislation will allow.
EFFECT ON THE DEBT
Table 4 gives details regarding the effect of each year's
operations upon the public debt. The budget surplus or
deficit is not the only factor which causes a change in
the public debt. The amount necessary to borrow or
available to repay is also influenced by: Changes in cash
balances; the result of trust fund transactions; the use of
borrowing directly from the public (not Treasury borrowing) as a means of financing budget expenditures of certain
enterprises (and the repayments of such borrowing as an
application of public enterprise fund receipts); and the
change in the amount of checks outstanding and other
items in process of clearance through the accounts.
CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT
Table 5 brings together the total financial plan for the
Government—the budget figures for Federal funds and
the estimates for trust and deposit funds—for 1962; and
it presents a consolidated statement of receipts from and
payments to the public. The statement not only eliminates interfund payments, but also brings in transactions
of certain Government-sponsored enterprises which are
not otherwise reflected in the budget, converts to a cash
basis those expenditures which are made in the form of
debt issuances (or increases in the redemption value of
debt), and eliminates noncash receipts resulting from
seigniorage. Details and further explanations are given
in special analysis A of part IV.
CLASSIFICATIONS
Receipts are classified in tables 1 and 5 by source, a
classification which is set forth in detail in special analysis
B of part IV.
Expenditures and new obligational authority are classified in two ways in the part I tables. A classification by
function, used in tables 1 and 5 and the first part of table
3, groups transactions according to broad governmental
purposes; subcategories of this classification as applied
to Federal funds are set forth in special analysis C. A
classification by agency, used in table 2 and the second
part of table 3, shows transactions by major organizational
units of the Government, with most agencies that are
independent of the ten executive departments being
grouped together. The main entries in this classification
correspond to "chapters" in part II of the budget and to
the way in which part III is organized.

INTRODUCTION TO PART II
Part II contains the details of the budget for Federal
funds, including various types of tables and schedules,
explanatory statements of the work to be performed
and the money needed, and the text of the language
proposed for enactment by Congress on each item of
authorization. Material is also included on a few trust
funds which require congressional action.
SUMMARY
BUDGET
AUTHORIZATIONS
AND
TABLES AND THEIR
EXPENDITURES
Listing of accounts.—A principal table for each chapter
shows the new obligational authority and budget expenditures by appropriation or fund account. It is arranged
by bureau or comparable organization unit and for each
such unit, is divided into several sections: Current authorizations (other than for public enterprise and intragovernmental funds), permanent authorizations, public
enterprise funds, intragovernmental funds, and items proposed for later transmission. However, supplemental
required in 1961 to cover the Federal employee pay
increase enacted last year are shown with the accounts
to which they relate.
Authorizations by type.—Forms of new obligational authority other than appropriations are set forth under the
applicable account titles, identified by separate line
entries. A recapitulation shows the authorizations divided between current and permanent and classified by
type. In this recapitulation new obligational authority
for public enterprise and intragovernmental funds is
classified with other authority of the same type. The
figures are summarized in table 7.
Expenditures from 1962 authority.—The final column
shows the portion of the expenditures in the budget year
which is estimated to result from new obligational authority for the same year. It is generally assumed that
prior year balances available in commingled accounts
will be obligated before the new authorizations are obligated, and that expenditures will reflect the liquidation
of those obligations on the basis of previous experience.
TRANSACTIONS
OF
PUBLIC
ENTERPRISE
FUNDS
A second table in each chapter is used for public enterprise funds. It shows gross expenditures, receipts from
operations, and budget expenditures (the difference between the two other figures). Gross expenditures and
receipts are derived from the detailed business-type budget
statements, which show expenditures and receipts on an
accrual basis with a single adjustment (on either the
expenditure or receipt side but not both) for the conversion from an accrual to a checks-issued basis, net.
The figures from the chapters are totaled in table 9.
UNEXPENDED
BALANCES
CARRIED
FORWARD
An analysis of unexpended balances for each chapter
shows the balances of budget authorizations carried forward at start and end of the past, current, and budget
years. These balances are summarized in table 8.
Many budget authorizations are available for obligation
for only 1 year, but some are available for longer periods
of time or without time limit. In the case of those which
are for a specific period of time, unobligated balances are
written off at the end of that time, but obligated balances
are carried forward indefinitely to pay outstanding obligations lawfully incurred.
10
This part of the budget begins with 4 summary statements (tables 6 through 9) which supplement the tables
of part I. The remainder of part II is arranged in chapters reflecting the organization of the Government. Each
chapter has summary tables, followed by details for each
account.
CONTENTS
In the case of salaries and wages, travel, and like items,
the lag between obligations and expenditures is usually
no more than a few weeks or a few months. In the case
of construction, major procurement, certain research contracts and similar items, the lag between obligations and
expenditures may be 1 or 2 years or even longer.
The unobligated balance for each account represents
the difference between the unexpended balance and the net
obligations outstanding. Net obligations outstanding
represent the unpaid obligations (both those which have
accrued into liabilities and those which are undelivered or
unperformed) less the accounts receivable and intragovernmental orders for services or materiel which have been
accepted but hive not yet become receivables.
RELATIONSHIP
OF
TRANSACTIONS
AND
BALANCES
The relationship between new obligational authority,
obligations incurred, and budget expenditures for each
year is shown in another table of each chapter, and summarized for the Government in table 6.
The obligations incurred constitute the most significant
step between the opening and closing entries. The other
lines represent balances carried forward between years;
transfers between chapters; and writeoffs, restorations,
and adjustments.
Obligations incurred, net.—The obligations incurred are
stated on a gross basis in the detailed schedules, but are
summarized on a net basis, consistent with the method
of stating budget expenditures and new obligational
authority. Thus, the summary figures are based on total
obligations incurred less reimbursements to appropriation
accounts, revenues and other receipts of revolving funds,
and recoveries of prior obligations.
Writeoffs, restorations, and adjustments in availability.—•
Writeoffs of unused balances of authorizations occur in
four ways: (a) rescissions by act of Congress; (b) the automatic lapsing of unobligated balances when an appropriation expires for purposes of obligation; (c) the return of
capital and transfer of dividends from revolving funds to
the general fund; and (d) adjustments in the obligated
balances of expired accounts due to the payment of obligations in smaller amounts than anticipated or to the amendment or canceling of obligations. Restorations of balances
previously written off occur in the case of expired accounts
when the balances left for payment of old obligations are
insufficient to cover them, due to payments in larger
amounts than anticipated, the amendment of obligations,
or the discovery of previously unrecorded items. Such
restorations are netted in the table with other adjustments.
RECAPITULATION
BY
FUNCTION
The final table of each chapter summarizes the new obligational authority and expenditures according to the
functional categories used in special analysis C of Part IV.
Each line on this table consists of the total of the figures
appearing on the first of the chapter summary tables opposite the corresponding functional code number.
11
ESTIMATES FOR FEDERAL FUNDS
FORM
OF
DETAILED
For each appropriation, the budget includes certain
detailed material, as follows: (1) appropriation language,
if applicable; (2) a schedule of program and financing;
(3) a narrative statement on program and performance;
(4) a schedule of object classification. An exception
occurs in the case of certain permanent appropriations and
older appropriation accounts on which only a residual
balance remains; such accounts of a bureau or independent agency are often combined into a single presentation instead of having separate schedules. Where the
obligations fall in a single object class, the classification is
identified in the program and financing schedule, rather
than in a separate schedule.
For revolving funds, there are usually three additional
schedules covering (5) sources and application of funds;
(6) revenue, expense, and retained earnings; and (7)
financial condition. For some intragovernmental funds
the program and financing schedule is omitted.
APPROPRIATION
LANGUAGE
The language proposed for inclusion in the 1962 appropriation acts is printed at the head of each item requiring
action by Congress, except for those items which are not
formally recommended at this time but will be proposed
for later transmission. The language of the 1961 appropriation acts is used as a base. Following the language
are citations to relevant laws and the appropriation act
from which the text is taken, as in this example:
SALARIES AND
EXPENSES
For necessary expenses, including uniforms or allowances therefor,
as authorized by law (5 U.S.C. 2131), and services a,s authorized by
section 15 of the Act of August 2, 1948 (5 U.S.C. 55a), £$8,912,500]

Roman type shows the text used in the 1961 appropriation acts. Italic type indicates proposed new language.
Brackets enclose material which it is proposed to omit.
SCHEDULE
OF
PROGRAM
AND
FINANCING
This schedule consists of two parts. In the section for
program by activities, costs or obligations are classified
by purpose, program, or project.
MATERIAL
The financing section shows the appropriation provided
and other means of financing the program, and the disposition of amounts not used during the year.
Where the data are available in the accounting system,
cost-type budgets are presented, as in the preceding example. in such cases, figures opposite the activity entries
are the value of goods and services consumed in carrying
out the program, in the case of operating costs; and they
are the value of capital assets received, in the case of
capital outlay programs.
The relation of costs to obligations is summarized in one
or two lines on this schedule, but is amplified further in
an additional table inserted in the narrative statement:
Selected resources at end of year: Invenventories and items on order:
Stores (goods unconsumed by activities)
Unpaid undelivered orders (appropriation balances obligated for goods and
services on order not yet received)..

The work planned and services proposed to be carried
out are described briefly in a narrative statement for each
appropriation or fund. Where practicable the narrative
statement indicates the expected accomplishment in relation to the financial estimates, and it gives some measures

A personnel summary is appended to the object classification schedule, as illustrated:
the resulting net income or loss for the year. This statement is usually on a full accrual basis, including sums for
depreciation, provision for losses on receivables, etc.
Where a fund consists of several programs, revenue and
expense may be identified for each; otherwise they are
shown only for the fund as a whole, as here illustrated:

Permanent positions are those of a full-time nature
which are of indefinite duration. Some are filled by
persons with temporary appointments. The "number of
employees at end of year" represents the number of
(a) full-time and regularly scheduled part-time employees
in pay status on the last workday in June, and (b) intermittent employees who work at any time during June.
This is the basis for reports of the Civil Service
Commission.
Average grades and salaries are computed arithmetically. Thus the average salary sometimes falls outside
the salary range of the average grade.
STATEMENT
OF
SOURCES
AND
APPLICATION
OF
FUNDS
For all revolving funds, there is a presentation of funds
applied and provided, other than b^rowings and other
financing transactions.
The statement generally reflects receipts and expenditures on an accrual basis; an adjustment is made for
changes in selected working capital (current assets, other
than cash and inventories for sale or manufacture, less
current liabilities) in either section of the statement as
appropriate. Because of such an adjustment, the gross
expenditures shown on the statement, less the receipts
from operations, equal budget expenditures on a checksissued basis, as in the following example:
Sources and Application of Funds (Operations) (in thousands of dollars)

Gross expenditures (funds applied):

The statement includes an analysis of the retained
earnings or the cumulative deficit. This analysis shows
any additions to earnings, other than net income for the
year, any charges made against retained earnings, and the
balance of profits kept in the enterprise as of the end of the
year (whether in the form of cash, inventories, other
current assets, or fixed assets).
STATEMENT
OF
FINANCIAL
CONDITION
For each revolving fund there is presented a balance
sheet of assets, liabilities, and investment of the Government at the close of the year, as in this example:
Financial Condition (in thousands of dollars)
Assets:
Cash with Treasury
Accounts receivable, net
Supplies.
Deferred charges
Land, structures, and equipment, net..
Total assets..
liabilities:
Current
Government investment:

year)

Total Government investment..
The balance sheet excludes balances of appropriations
or borrowing authorizations which have not yet been paid
into the revolving fund. The section on investment of the
Government is divided into three subsections as appropriate: (a) interest-bearing capital, (b) non-interestbearing capital, and (c) retained earnings.
Because the balance sheet is on an accrual basis, it does
not reflect the obligations incurred which have not yet
matured into liabilities, nor does it reflect unfilled customer
orders received and available as a basis for obligation in
the case of intragovernmental revolving funds. Therefore, there is normally appended to the balance sheet a
schedule which shows the unobligated balance, relating
it to the unexpended balance and showing the computation of the obligated balance as in the following example:
Status of Certain Fund Balance (in thousands of dollars)
Unexpended balance: Cash
Obligated balance, net:
Current liabilities
Unpaid undelivered orders.
Accounts receivable, net, and cash in
transit (—)
Total obligated balance
Unobligated balance.

tion sales. Receipts of $2,171 thousand were deposited
in miscellaneous receipts of the Treasury in 1960. The
objectives for 1962 are: meeting the increased demand
for catalog cards and maintaining a reasonable level of
service and economy; providing older series of cards by
electrostatic printing process thereby conserving space
and providing fuller service; and the continued improvement of the National Union Catalog.
1. Supplying cards for the Library of Congress.—The
number of cards supplied to the Library of Congress in
1960 was 4,970 thousand; estimated for 1961, at 5,000
thousand; and for 1962, at 5,050 thousand.
2. Supplying cards for other libraries.—The number of
cards sold in 1960 was 32.1 million; estimated for 1961 at
33 million; and for 1962 at 34 million.
3. Preparation, printing, and distribution of publications
related to cataloging.—These publications are an integral
part of the cataloging activities of the Library of Congress
and include the Classification Schedules, lists of Subject
Headings, Rules for Descriptive Cataloging, Cataloging
Service Bulletins, and similar publications.
4. Preparation, printing, and distribution of the National
Union Catalog.—This catalog (a cumulative author list)
is issued monthly and cumulated quarterly and annually.
Subscribers also receive issues of Motion Pictures and
Filmstrips (quarterlies with annual cumulation), and
Music and Phonorecords (issued on a 6-month basis and
annual cumulation). There were 1,090 paid subscriptions
for all issues in calendar year 1959, and it is estimated
that there will be 1,130 subscriptions for 1960 and 1,160
for 1961. Included under this activity is the National
Library of Medicine Catalog.
5. Preparation, printing, and distribution of the Subject
Catalog.—This catalog is issued in three quarterly volumes
with an annual cumulation. There were 409 paid subscriptions for calendar year 1959. It is estimated that
there will be 415 paid subscriptions in 1960 and about
420 in 1961.

This appropriation constitutes the only means of
acquiring regular domestic trade publications (except for
copyright deposits) and many foreign trade publications,
both current and noncurrent, from approximately 100
countries or areas. The publications acquired by purchase
constitute a most important part of the Library's acquisitions although they represent only a small portion of the
material received annually. The objectives for 1962 are:
to continue the procurement of important research materials to strengthen the Library's collections; to acquire
selected important foreign newspapers and periodicals;
to increase the acquisition of important materials from
critical areas, particularly from Eastern Europe, Africa,
and the Orient; to increase the acquisition of materials in
the fields of science and technology; to continue the
purchase of selected current titles on microfilm as an
economy measure in lieu of binding; and to greatly expand
the microfilming of deteriorating materials as a necessary
preservative and space-saving measure.

The division for the blind is responsible for administering a national program to provide reading material for the
blind of the United States and its possessions. It has two
closely related operations.
1. Procurement and distributions.—It provides books in
embossed characters, and talking books with their associated reproducers. The books are distributed through 32
regional libraries which assume responsibility for thencustody and circulation. The reproducers are distributed
through 53 State agencies. The maintenance and procurement of these books are shown in the following table:

Objectives for 1962 include the sustained procurement
of titles of books, of more copies of the popular titles, of a
sufficient number of machines to equip newly registered
blind readers and to replace scrapped machines, and
continuation of the quality inspection program on machines and with increased emphasis on research in sound
reproduction.
2. Cataloging, reference, circulation, and training services.—Catalogs of talking and braille books are prepared
and maintained, including a Union Catalog of Hand
Copied Books in Braille which brings together a record of
holdings of all libraries. The division also maintains a
unique collection (about 28 thousand volumes) of books in
braille not available elsewhere for loan in the United
States. During the period 1946 to 1959 the number of
readers throughout the country requiring catalogs from
which to select reading matter has grown from 30 thousand to 63 thousand and circulation from 802 thousand
units (volumes or containers) to about 1,950 thousand.
The number of readers and circulation are expected to
continue to increase in 1961 and 1962. Inquiries are received concerning library and related services available
to the blind. Individuals throughout the nation who are
interested in transcribing or proofreading braille are
trained and those qualified are certified. During 1960,
there were 544 individuals certified as compared to 573
in 1959, and it is anticipated that this level will continue
during 1961 and 1962.

For 1960, an appropriation of $60 thousand was made
to enable the Librarian of Congress to provide for the
conversion to safety base film of the George Kleine collection of nitrate film, and the paper prints of early American motion pictures now in the custody of the Library.
During 1960, approximately 116 thousand feet of paper
prints were converted and the remainder of 157 thousand
feet of nitrate film in the George Kleine collection were
converted to safety base film.
It is anticipated that with the $60 thousand appropriated for 1961, an additional 105 thousand feet of paper
prints will be converted.
The $61 thousand requested for 1962 will allow for the
conversion of an additional 105 thousand feet of paper
prints. This will leave another 227 thousand feet to be
copied.

The work programs of the Office of the Superintendent
of Documents are of a service nature, and hence there is no
control over the volume of work which is required by law.
1. Sales distribution.—Government publications are purchased from the Public Printer to be placed on sale.
45
LEGISLATIVE BRANCH
Acquisition costs are paid from sales receipts; hence no
appropriation is required for printing sales copies. By
law, the sale price is set at the cost of manufacture plus
50%. At the end of each year, excess receipts from sales
not required for purchasing additional publications are
turned in to the Treasury Department as miscellaneous
receipts. For 1960, earnings from the sale of publications
amounted to $4,110 thousand. It is estimated that earnings for 1961 will be $4,450 thousand and $4,700 thousand
for 1962. These earnings more than cover the appropriation required to finance the sales program.
The sale of Government publications has been steadily
increasing, and in the last 10 years the sales volume has
more than doubled. The current public interest in the
Government's publishing program points to a continuing
increase in the volume of sales.
2. Distribution for other agencies and Members of Congress.—The Superintendent of Documents maintains
mailing lists, including the list for the Congressional
Record, and performs mailing operations upon request of
any Government agency. Mailing services for farmers
bulletins, soil surveys, and other publications which are
allocated to Members of Congress on a quota basis are also
provided.
3. Depository library distribution.—Upon request, 1 copy
of every Government publication is supplied to more than
593 libraries which are designated depositories for Government publications.
4. Cataloging and indexing.—This activity covers the
preparation and distribution of catalogs and indexes of all
publications issued by the Federal Government, the principal series being the Monthly Catalog of the U.S. Government Publications and the Numerical List and Schedule
of Volumes.
5. Relation of costs to obligations.—The year-end balances of unpaid undelivered orders are as follows: 1959,
$15 thousand; 1959 adjusted, $13 thousand; 1960, $0;
1961, $10 thousand; 1962, $10 thousand.

The Government Printing Office executes orders for
printing, binding, and blankbook work, placed by Congress and the various departments and independent
establishments of the Federal Government, and furnishes
on order, blank paper, inks, and similar supplies. Operations are subject to the authority of the Joint Committee
on Printing (44 U.S.C.).
A separate appropriation has been established for
authorized printing and binding for the Congress; for
printing, binding, and distribution of the Federal Register;
and printing and binding of Government publications
authorized by law to be distributed without charge to the
recipients (67 Stat. 330).
All work for Government agencies is done on a reimbursable basis and financed through the Government
Printing Office revolving fund.
Receipts from sales of publications by the Superintendent of Documents are deposited to the revolving fund
and cost of publications paid therefrom. All profits
accruing from these transactions are deposited in the
Treasury of the United States and credited to miscellaneous receipts (44 U.S.C. 63).

The Court of Claims has jurisdiction of all cases involving claims against the United States (except in pension suits) instituted upon constitutional grounds or under
Federal law or regulations, all claims arising out of any
contract with the Federal Government and its agencies,
and claims for the refund of taxes. It also has general
jurisdiction to hear and determine claims for damages
other than tort actions, provided the claimants would
have the right to sue in law or equity if the United States
were not immune to such suits. It has jurisdiction in
suits against the United States by contractors dissatisfied
with the findings and decisions of contracting agencies
under terminated war contracts, and jurisdiction concurrent with that of the courts of appeals to review district
court decisions in cases involving tort actions. It has
exclusive jurisdiction to review the decisions of the Indian
Claims Commission on appeal from the Commission. It
also has jurisdiction in special act cases referred to the
court by either or both Houses of Congress.
The court continues to carry a heavy load of cases and
has been able to dispose of the cases which are ready to
be heard as expeditiously as the Department of Justice
can process them.

estimate
The primary and appellate jurisdiction of the courts of
the United States are vested in the 91 district courts and
11 courts of appeals. Provision for the salaries of the
administrative and legal aides required to assist the judges
in the conduct of hearings, trials, and other judicial functions and to man the component offices of the courts
including the Federal Probation System is made under
this heading. The estimate for 1962 will permit the
employment of additional deputy clerks to handle an
increase in the volume of work in the clerks' offices due
primarily to rising bankruptcy filings, an increase in civil
cases filed and substantial increases in the number of
passport applications and petitions for naturalization
processed by the district courts. Funds also are included
for additional probation officers, in an effort to reduce the
caseload per officer so as to provide more effective probation and parole investigation and supervision. Provision
has been made for the employment of additional law
clerks and secretaries to judges; clerk-stenographers for
probation officers; clerical assistants for U.S. commissioners; court reporters; and other court personnel. Provision also has been made for an increase in the allotments
for temporary emergency employment for clerks' offices,
probation offices, and judges, including temporary court
reporters to serve visiting judges and in land condemnation proceedings; and for salary adjustments for certain
court personnel under standards approved by the Judicial
Conference of the United States.

This appropriation provides for the statutory fees and
allowances of jurors, fees of jury commissioners, and fees
and personnel benefits of U.S. commissioners, who serve
primarily as committing magistrates. A change in the
language of the appropriation is proposed so as to permit
the payment of compensation of voting referees pursuant
to the provisions of the Civil Rights Act of 1960.
The amount of service and the compensation of jurors
depends largely on the number of jury trials requested by
the parties to civil and criminal cases in the U.S. courts
and to the administration of the jury system. A substantial reduction in fees paid jurors was accomplished
during 1960 through the efforts of the courts and the
Administrative Office of the United States Courts in
improving the jury system so as to provide for the
greater utilization of jurors. A further reduction in fees
of jurors is expected to be realized during 1961.
The earnings of commissioners are directly related to
the volume of cases presented by law-enforcement officials.

The district courts of the United States are constituted
courts of bankruptcy, vested with original jurisdiction at
law and in equity in proceedings brought under the bankruptcy statutes. This jurisdiction primarily is exercised
through referees appointed by the several district courts.
Their compensation and benefits are paid from this appropriation, which is derived from a special fund in the Treasury to which are deposited payments of fees and charges
by parties to the proceedings. The present system is selfsustaining, and no appropriation from the general fund of
the Treasury is required.
Additional full-time referees and the conversion of a
number of part-time referees to full-time have been requested for 1962 to cope with rising caseloads forecast for
the current and ensuing years.

The office pursuant to section 604 of title 28, United
States Code, under the supervision and direction of the
Judicial Conference of the United States, is responsible
for the administration of the U.S. courts, including the
probation and bankruptcy systems. The principal functions consist of providing staff and services for the courts;
conducting a continuous study of the rules of practice and
procedure in the Federal courts; examining the state of
the dockets of the various courts; compiling and publishing statistical data concerning the business transacted
by the courts; and administering the Judicial Survivors
Annuity System under title 28, United States Code, section 376. The office also is responsible for the preparation and submission of the annual budget estimates as
well as supplemental and deficiency estimates; the disbursement of and accounting for moneys appropriated for
the operation of the courts; the audit and examination
of accounts; the purchase and distribution of supplies,
equipment and furniture; and for securing adequate space
for occupancy by the courts and for such other matters
as may be assigned by the Supreme Court and the Judicial
Conference of the United States.
The office in 1962 will continue its efforts to assist the
courts with the enormous task of coping with the backlog
of civil cases. The office plans on an expansion of the
program of administrative supervision over the financial
and administrative operations of the offices of the referees,
trustees, and receivers in bankruptcy. It intends to provide more extensive staff assistance in the planning and
development of national and circuit sentencing institutes;
improvement and expansion of the research and statistical
program as well as the program for personnel administration, including the study of classification standards and
position evaluation.

Office and other expenses of referees, including compensation and benefits of clerical employees, are payable
upon authorization of the Director of the Administrative
Office of the United States Courts. Caseload data appear
under the account for salaries of referees. This appropriation is derived from a special fund in the Treasury to
which are deposited payments of fees and charges by
parties to the proceedings. The present system is selfsustaining, and no appropriation from the general fund
of the Treasury is required.
In order to handle the pending caseload and the anticipated increase in the volume of cases to be filed in 1961
and 1962, it is necessary to provide for expansion of the
referees' staffs and their facilities. A supplemental appropriation for 1961 is anticipated under Proposed for later
transmission.

This Office was created b y Reorganization Plan No. 1
of 1958 through the merger of the Federal Civil Defense
Administration and the Office of Defense Mobilization.
It coordinates all civil defense and mobilization activities
of the Federal Government and provides guidance and
assistance to the States and their political subdivisions in
the planning of preparedness measures as an integral part
of the national plan for civil defense and defense mobilization. Operational capability for attack warning and
emergency communications is provided, stockpiles of
medical and engineering equipment are maintained for
emergency use, financial contributions are made to States
and political subdivisions for civil defense personnel and
administrative costs and the provision of facilities and
equipment, and radiological defense equipment is furnished to the States and localities for training and operational use. Policies are developed for the administration
of the Defense Production Act and the strategic and
critical materials stockpile.
In 1962, major emphasis will continue to be devoted to
programs for strengthening the capability of all governments to act effectively in emergencies, for developing an
effective radiological defense, and for increasing the availability of appropriate fallout shelter.

1. Executive direction and policy planning.—This activity provides the top level direction of nonmilitary
programs for the defense of the United States. It also
includes the development, coordination, and evaluation
of civil and defense mobilization assumptions, policies,
and programs for Federal, State, local, and individual
implementation and participation.
2. Research and development.—Programs designed to
meet current and projected research needs are coordinated
and administered. In addition, damage assessment
systems required for emergency operations and control of
critical resources are provided. The administration of
the research program is under this appropriation; actual
research projects are financed under the Research and
development appropriation.
3. Emergency planning.—This activity provides for the
development of Federal mobilization plans and coordination of Federal, State, and local emergency operations
plans. This includes supervision of Federal grant-in-aid
programs for civil defense purposes; the overall coordination of civil defense and mobilization functions assigned to
other Federal agencies; measures to minimize the effects
of enemy attack by chemical, biological, or radiological
means upon the people and national resources; and the
development of shelter and other programs to reduce the
vulnerability of the Nation to weapons of mass destruction. Tests are conducted to determine the adequacy of
various types of emergency plans.
4. Warning and communications.—The Office of Civil
and Defense Mobilization national warning system is
being revised to make it compatible with the NORAD
structure and techniques of operation. The warning
system was expanded in 1961 to 447 key warning points.
In 1962 it is proposed to add 53 warning points, making a
total of 500. The system will then provide direct attack
warning to all cities of 20,000 or more population, and
those cities of 10,000 to 20,000 population which are
adjacent to important civil and military targets. This
activity also includes the national communications system
for postattack emergency coordination of emergency
government down to State level. Strengthening of the
communications network will be continued in 1962
through installation of radio backup facilities at additional
State control sites, providing a minimum emergency
communications radio link to and between the eight Office
of Civil and Defense Mobilization regional offices, the
national and operational headquarters, and the States.
5. Training, education, and public affairs.—This activity
provides training methods and materials to State and local
organizations, and dissemination of promotional matter
furthering civil defense preparedness. The 1962 request
provides for further expansion of the adult education
program to teach the principles of individual, family, and
community protection, utilizing the existing adult education network in the States. By the end of 1962, it is
estimated that 445,000 adults will have received training
through the resources of this program.
6. Resources and production planning.—This office
develops operating plans to stabilize the economy and
manage the national resources under various emergency
conditions. Plans are also developed for the restoration
and rehabilitation of essential physical facilities after
attack. During 1962, work will continue in exploring
survival requirements, postattack, and various methods
which can be used to fill these requirements.
7. Field operations.—Civil and defense mobilization
programs are made available to States and localities
through the eight regional offices; courses in civil defense
subjects including instructor training are given at four
training installations; and specialized activities in connection with attack warning, damage assessment, and
emergency operations are conducted at various headquarters throughout the country.
8. Management services and stockpile operations.—In
addition to centralized administrative services, this
activity also finances the management of the civil defense
stockpile. The stockpile is located in warehouses operated
by other Federal agencies.
9. Relation oj costs to obligations.—The relationship is
derived from year-end balances of selected resources and
applicable adjustment as reflected in the following table
(in thousands of dollars):
Selected resources at end of year: Inventories and items on order:
Unpaid undelivered orders (appropriation balances obligated for goods and
services on order not yet received)
Advances (payment for goods and services on order not yet received)
Accrued annual leave (leave earned and
not taken by employees, charged to
activity costs)

1. Agriculture.—Agriculture's nationwide network of
local representatives has been assigned responsibility for
radiological monitoring on a widely dispersed basis. The
1962 program will be devoted to radiological defense training for this purpose, and continuation of food management
planning and liaison responsibilities.
2. Commerce.—This Department will continue to plan
for the mobilization of industrial production and the establishment and decentralization of controls; plan for the
defense, emergency utilization, and control of U.S. ports;
develop the defense air transportation program; provide
specialized weather data including radiological fallout forecasts; plan for the integration of field installations in the
Federal fixed monitoring network; and compile statistical
resources data needed to assess damage from attack under
various conditions.
3. Federal Aviation Agency.—This Agency will continue
the planning and preparedness measures initiated in 1961
for the development of operational plans, technical standards, and procedures for improving the emergency readiness of the Nation's airlift capability and its supporting
elements.
5. General Services Administration.—The emergency
communications system connecting the Federal Government relocation sites in the field was terminated at the
end of 1960. Certain other civil defense and defense
mobilization activities, principally liaison in nature, will
be performed without cost to this appropriation.
6. Health, Education, and Welfare.—Responsibilities
have been assigned to this Department to improve the
Nation's civil defense readiness in areas of emergency
health and welfare. This involves development of organizational plans and training of medical personnel at the
local level, and the preparation and dissemination of
welfare guidance materials to the States and communities
to stimulate emergency welfare planning and preparation.
EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
Further, the supervision and management of the Nation's
medical stockpile has been assigned to the Department
by the Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization.
7. Housing and Home Finance Agency.—This Agency is
charged with the responsibility of providing housing for
the population under emergency conditions. The increase
in 1962 results principally from the continuation on a fullyear basis the civil defense liaison specialist in each of the
Agency's eight regional offices.
8. Interior.—-The Department's responsibilities include
the mobilization planning required for strategic minerals
and to marshal the fuel and power resources of the Nation
to cope with an emergency. The Department will also
provide radiological monitoring stations at dispersed
locations throughout the United States.
9. Interstate Commerce Commission.—The Commission
is assigned the responsibility for guidance to the domestic
surface transportation industry on disaster preparedness.
This covers the Nation's railroads, motor carriers, and
inland waterway transportation systems.
10. Labor.—Funds made available in 1961 permitted
this Department to plan to meet manpower problems at
all levels of government in a postattack period. The
1962 budget will permit continuation and expansion of
programs involving emergency management of the labor
force, including manpower planning in various State
employment security agencies.
14. Relation of costs to obligations.—Year-end balances
of unpaid undelivered orders are as follows: 1959, $0;
1960, $445 thousand; 1961, $229 thousand; 1962, $228
thousand.

total of $97.5 million has been contributed by the Federal
Government, of which 53% has been used for warning
and communications equipment and 15% for medical
supplies and equipment.
11. Personnel and administrative expenses.—This new
activity for matching the personnel and administrative
expenses of State and local civil defense organizations
results from legislation enacted by the 85th Congress
making civil defense the joint responsibility of all levels
of government. Sufficient funds were appropriated in
1961 to provide for an average cost of $1 million per

1. Medical supplies and equipment.—Supplies and equipment are procured in quantities considered necessary to
supplement commercial inventories expected to survive
the blast and radiation effects of an attack. These are
stockpiled in strategically located points of storage
throughout the Nation. Planned procurement for 1962
will provide an additional 1,000 civil defense emergency
hospitals, and medical supplies required to extend the operational capabilities of these hospitals, as well as those
already pre-positioned throughout the Nation.
2. Chemical, biological, and radiological defense equipment.—Equipment is procured and granted to the States
and localities for training and operational purposes. The
main objective of this program is to equip a national
chemical, biological, and radiological monitoring system
consisting of 100,000 fixed monitoring stations manned by
500,000 monitors, (a) Chemical and biological.—Protec-

tive devices and detector kits will be procured in 1962 in
sufficient quantities to equip an additional 25,000 monitors. (b) Radiological.—Detection instruments to be procured in 1962 will equip approximately 48,700 monitoring
stations with one monitoring set each.
3-4. Stockpile management.—The stockpile is maintained in warehouses operated by other Federal agencies
in strategically located points of storage throughout the
Nation so as to best afford ample transportation facilities,
security, strategic coverage, and geographical distribution.
Due to the particular characteristics of the items stockpiled, certain maintenance, storage, and testing procedures
must be employed in order to insure the serviceability of
each during their normal storage life.

1. Fallout shelter prototypes, surveys, and shelter design
grants.—Under the national shelter policy, Federal
example and leadership is recognized as an indispensable
element in stimulating State and local governments,
private industry, and the individual citizen to build
shelters for their protection. To set the example, Federal
prototype shelters of various types are being constructed
in different climatic and population areas and sampling
surveys are being conducted to determine and identify
the shelter potential of existing structures for protecting
the population during an emergency. Also, a program has
been initiated making grants to schools of architecture
and engineering for development of curricula and training
of students in new concepts of shelter design and contracting with architect-engineering firms to develop special
designs for schools, churches, and apartment and office
buildings.
2. Research.—This activity finances the development
and application of scientific knowledge to the strategic
requirements of the nonmilitary defense of the Nation
through research contracts with Federal agencies, universities, industry, and private institutions. The research
in 1962 covers the broad areas of shelter research (exclusive
of construction), engineering and testing; radiological
defense; operations research; economics research; social
research; warning and communications research; and other
research.
3. Survival planning.—In 1960 survival studies were
terminated in New Mexico and South Carolina. This
completed the survival planning program initiated in 1956.

EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
1. Construction of facilities.—In I960, funds were appropriated for construction of an Office of Civil and Defense
Mobilization regional underground control center at
Denton, Tex. In 1962, funds are requested for construction of an additional Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization regional center. Each of these centers will operate on
a day-to-day basis with some 200 employees. In an
emergency, each staff can be expanded to approximately
500 employees.
2. Relation of costs to obligations.—Year-end balances of
unpaid undelivered orders are as follows: 1959, $0; 1960,
$90 thousand; 1961, $1,483 thousand; 1962, $1,685
thousand.
Object Classification (in thousands of dollars)
This fund finances the procurement of civil defense
materials toward which contributions to the States are
authorized on a matching fund basis. The fund is reimbursed for purchases from the Federal contributions appropriation and from funds provided by the States (65
Stat. 61). Increased procurement of radiological instruments for the State and local governments is anticipated
during 1961 and 1962, thus accounting for the increased
obligations projected for these years.
Relation of costs to obligations.—Year-end balances of
unpaid undelivered orders are as follows: 1959, $219
thousand; 1959 (adjusted), $211 thousand; 1960, $224
thousand; 1961, $320 thousand; 1962, $520 thousand.

A N D DEFENSE MOBILIZATION
1. Administration.
2. Aid to disaster areas.—This program provides for a
coordinated effort by the Federal Government to assist
States and their political subdivisions affected by major
disaster when they are unable to cope with the situation
physically or financially.
Responsibility for administration of this program is
delegated to the Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization.
Disaster relief operations of the entire Federal Government are coordinated and funds are made available to
affected areas and to reimburse Federal agencies for disaster operations.
State and local civil defense organizations are active
in disaster operations and receive valuable operational
training as a result. Unused prior appropriations will
finance disaster operations through 1961 with unobligated
balances of approximately $4 million carrying forward
into 1962. An appropriation of $6 million is requested
so that a minimum balance of $10 million will be available
for 1962 disaster operations.
During 1960 the President proclaimed major disasters
in eight States and allocated funds as follows (in thousands
of dollars):

programs, $18.3 million for machine tool and marine
turbine and gear capacity programs, and $212.5 million
for Treasury interest, custodial and administrative expenses. The financing also includes $888.7 million of
working capital required for carrying inventories for
which only a limited sale is now foreseen.
The bulk of the expansion programs have been completed, with the major problems being receipt, custody,
and eventual disposition of the materials and facilities.
The exercise of option rights by contractors has been carefully examined with a view to reducing deliveries to the
Government as far as possible within the terms of the
contracts whenever basic stockpiling objectives have been
attained. Between July 1, 1957, and June 30, 1960, a
reduction of $316.2 million in gross commitments under
the Defense Production Act was attained through renegotiation of contracts.

and metals (including work-in-process inventory) under
this fund follows (in millions of dollars):

As of June 30, 1960, a total of $7,492.7 million in gross
value of contracts has been entered into by the General
Services Administration under Defense Production Act
authority. Of this amount a total of $6,686.5 million has
been completed as measured by procurement, expiration
of contractor options on guaranteed production, completion of facilities, completed research, etc. The balance of
$806.2 million includes a total of $653.2 million of commodity contracts, a few of which will not mature until
1965.
Department of Agriculture.—The purchase, management, and resale of agricultural commodities, except forest
products, are carried out by the Commodity Credit Corporation, which is reimbursed from this fund for the net
costs involved. The Secretary of Agriculture has been
allocated borrowing authority for this purpose.
During 1960, the Corporation continued the management of inventories of castor beans and the remaining
American-Egyptian cotton acquired under programs initiated in prior years. All of the castor beans and nearly all
of the American-Egyptian cotton inventories had been
disposed of by June 30, 1960. The remainder of the cotton has been sold during 1961.
The liquidation of the cotton inventory marks the completion of all programs certified to the Secretary of Agriculture under the Defense Production Act. Legislation
is being proposed to cancel notes payable to Treasury
equal to the $70.5 million in probable ultimate net cost
under these programs and to reduce the total authorization to borrow from Treasury by an equivalent amount.
Department of the Interior.—New contracting under the
minerals exploration program administered by the Defense Minerals Exploration Administration under the
Defense Production Act was terminated on June 30, 1958.
Under Public Law 85-701, August 21, 1958, the Office of
Minerals Exploration was created and authorized to use
appropriated funds to administer the Defense Production
Act contracts and certified projects remaining in force, as
well as to conduct a continuing exploration assistance
program.
The Defense Minerals Exploration Administration
entered into 1,159 contracts. The total cost of work
involved was $56.8 million and the maximum Government participation was $34.8 million. Of the total
Government participation, $23.3 million has been disbursed, $10.7 million has been canceled, and $898 thousand, under 15 contracts, remains to be disbursed. The
remaining commitment to disburse is expected to be
reduced by disbursements and cancellations in the amount
of $596 thousand in 1961 and $218 thousand in 1962.
The exploration contracts provide that if production
results from any of the Government assisted projects
within a 10-year period, part of the Government funds
will be repaid according to a royalty arrangement. By
June 30, 1960, the Office of Minerals Exploration had
certified discoveries on 391 projects, and royalty payments totaling $3.6 million had been received. Royalty
payments are estimated at $400 thousand each for 1961
and 1962.
Losses realized to June 30, 1960, total $16.9 million, of
which $5.4 million represents losses under exploration
contracts and $11.5 million unrecovered administrative
expense and interest on borrowings from Treasury. Assuming the enactment of proposed legislation to remove
the requirement to pay interest on borrowings from
Treasury after 1960, the net cost of this program through
1965 is estimated at $32.1 million.
Treasury Department.—No loans to domestic enterprises were authorized during 1960. It is anticipated
that there will be no additional loans authorized in 1961
and 1962.
Loans outstanding on June 30, 1960, after reserves for
losses, totaled $154.7 million and there were $14.7 million
in commitments to participate in loans made by banks
wherein disbursement of Treasury funds is deferred.
By the close of 1962 it is estimated that the net loans
will be reduced to $136.7 million and the deferred participation commitments to $12.4 million. Cumulative
net profit from operations as of June 30, 1960, was $18.2
million and is expected to be $25.1 million on June 30,
1962.
Export-Import Bank of Washington.—No certifications
were received and no new loans were authorized by the
Bank during 1960 for expansion of foreign productive capacity. It is contemplated that there will be no additional certifications to the Export-Import Bank in connection with these operations. Loans outstanding on
June 30, 1960, of $24.4 million are expected to be reduced
to $5.3 million by June 30, 1962. Cumulative net profit
from operations as of June 30, 1960, was $4.2 million and
is expected to be $5.1 million on June 30, 1962.

Economic assistance is provided to help maintain
political and economic stability, to assist in meeting the
costs of relatively large military forces maintained by some
of the less developed countries as part of the common
defense, and to help improve economic conditions in the
less developed areas of the world. Mutual security
economic programs include defense support, technical
cooperation, special assistance, Development Loan Fund,
the investment guarantee program, and a number of other
programs, such as contributions to certain special activities of the United Nations and other international
agencies. The appropriation for contingencies, while used
primarily for economic purposes, is also available for
military assistance. Authorization for these nonmilitary
programs for 1962 is required, with a number of minor
exceptions.
Information on the military assistance
program appears in the chapter on Department of
Defense—Military.

FUNDS APPROPRIATED TO THE PRESIDENT
1. Defense support.—Defense support is economic aid
provided to 12 of the lesser developed countries in order
to assist them to make specific contributions to the common defense effort. The existence of defense support is
rooted in a specific military requirement: the continued
contribution of forces of over 3 million men and military
facilities vital to the United States. The dimensions of
support are determined by analysis of the capability of a
country to make its defense contribution without endangering political or economic stability. Funds are primarily used to finance imports of food, raw materials, and
machinery, which are sold in commercial markets for local
currency which in turn is used for support of military
budgets and essential civilian economic activities.
(a) Europe and Africa.—Spain, where the United States
has bases of strategic importance, is the only country in
this region which received defense support aid.
(b) Near East and South Asia.—Greece, Turkey, Iran,
and Pakistan are the countries in this area which receive
defense support. All of them are members of regional
defense pacts which are part of the common defense.
(c) Far East.—The major portion of defense support
is allocated to the Far East countries of Korea, China
(Taiwan), Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, the Philippines, and
Thailand.
2. Technical cooperation.—This is a program for the
international exchange of technical knowledge and skills
through surveys, training, and demonstration programs
designed to introduce and improve needed institutions to
increase the skills of peoples in less developed countries and
to enable them to achieve a higher standard of living. Programs in health, education, agriculture, industry, and
other fields are designed to lead to an early impact as well
as to bring about long-term material benefits. The major
share of the U.S. contribution to the widespread effort to
improve knowledge and skills in the underdeveloped countries is provided through bilateral programs; the United
States also contributes to United Nations organizations
operating in the field of technical assistance and to the
programs of the Organization of American States.
(a) General.—The bilateral program is being increased
in accordance with our ability to recruit American technicians to carry out the program overseas and with the increasing ability of the cooperating countries to make good
use of their services. It is estimated that there will be,
by June 30, 1961, 3,700 direct-hire technicians plus 2,000
technicians employed by American firms, colleges, universities, and institutions which provide technical advice and
services under contract.
(b) United Nations.—The United Nations expanded
program of technical assistance is aiding over 95 countries
and territories through the provision of experts and the
financing of fellowships for training abroad. The special
fund emphasizes interregional surveys and training institutes. The 2 programs are financed by voluntary contributions from some 90 governments. The United States
contribution is about 40% of the total. The program has
been expanding during the last several years as a result of
higher contributions from European and Commonwealth
countries.
(c) Organization of American States.—This appropriation provides for the annual U.S. contribution, which is
about 70% of the total, to the technical assistance programs of the Organization of American States.
3. Special assistance.—This is economic aid which is
necessary to achieve political, economic, or other objectives of the United States in countries where the United
States is not providing military assistance in support of
significant military forces and where the needs for eco
nomic assistance cannot be provided under other programs, such as technical cooperation or the Development
Loan Fund. The country programs being implemented
during the present year serve the following broad objectives: (1) To maintain or develop economic stability in
countries in which U.S. support is essential to continued
independence or identification with the free world; (2) to
secure or maintain U.S. military facilities or other rights
in a country or to deal with economic and other problems
arising out of the existence of such facilities. Special
assistance programs are also being implemented in the
fields of health and education, the largest being the worldwide malaria eradication program. Others are support of
international medical research activities and American
schools abroad.
(a) Europe and Africa.—Nearly all of the special assistance for this area is furnished to countries in Africa.
Certain of the programs in Africa are to be increased
during 1961 and 1962. Some of these countries, many of
which are just now becoming independent, require considerable improvements in education, administration,
public health, and other fundamental skills as a foundation for economic development. In addition, for 1961
there was appropriated for hospital construction, $1.5
million to be used to purchase foreign currencies. These
currencies will be used to defray local costs (zlotys) incurred in the construction of a research hospital in
Krakow, Poland.
(b) Near East and South Asia.—Countries in this area
receive special assistance in order to help meet budgetary
requirements, to overcome balance-of-payments difficulties, and to help resist Communist pressure.
(c) Far East.—Most of the countries in the Far East
have military agreements with the United States and are
eligible for defense support aid. The special assistance
programs in this area (Burma and Indonesia in 1960)
are relatively small.
(d) Latin America.—Two of the countries in Latin
America, Bolivia and Haiti, which have especially critical
balance-of-payments problems, receive the bulk of the
special assistance.
(e) Nonregional programs.—This category includes the
various worldwide programs in health and education
mentioned above.
Loans.—Although the bulk of loans made from mutual
security program funds are now made from the Development Loan Fund, a portion of the special assistance funds
is loaned each year rather than granted. These loans
are almost all for economic development projects, and
may be repayable in either dollars or foreign currency.
The tables below show the current status of these loans.
Information on loans extended by the Development Loan
Fund and under the authority of the Agricultural Trade
Development and Assistance Act is shown in separate
schedules.
The following table gives data on loans made from
current mutual security obligational authority for both

4. Other programs.—Other programs include U.S. contributions to various international agencies, minor bilateral programs, and the costs of administering activities
under the Mutual Security Act and related acts.
The United States assists in moving surplus populations
and refugees from Europe and helps recent escapees from
the Soviet bloc through contributions to the Intergovernmental Committee for European Migration and the
United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, as well
as the U.S. escapee program.
Through its contribution to the United Nations children's fund (UNICEF), the United States joins with other
contributors in improving the health and welfare of
children and mothers, primarily in underdeveloped areas.
The U.S. contribution to the United Nations Relief and
Works Agency (UNRWA) assists in providing essential
care and maintenance for the Arab refugees displaced in
Palestine. Through the atoms for peace program the
United States makes available to other countries the
benefits derived from peaceful use of atomic science.
The United States along with other member countries
contributes to the NATO science program, which provides
for the exchange of scientists among the NATO countries
and an advanced institutes program.
It is anticipated that administrative expense funds will
be used by the International Cooperation Administration
in Washington and in some 85 overseas locations for
administering economic assistance programs and by the
Department of State for personnel involved in coordinating and conducting policy review of the entire mutual
security program in Washington and abroad and for other
functions. The Office of the Inspector General and
Comptroller, Mutual Security, State, conducts activities
involving financial management, investigations, and evaluations of all mutual security programs. These activities
have been financed during 1960 and 1961 from a management fund appearing below. Starting with 1962 it is
proposed that it be financed from the appropriation Administrative and other expenses (State).

President's special authority and contingency fund: For assistance
authorized by section 451(b), $250,000,000Provided, That none
of the funds appropriated in this paragraph shall be used for any
project or activity for which an estimate has been submitted to
Congress and which estimate has been rejected: Provided further,
That none of the funds appropriated in this paragraph may be
used to finance contributions to the United Nations for a program
in any country in Africa in excess of 40 per centum of the total
contributions to the United Nations for such program]. (Mutual
Security and Related Agencies Appropriation Act, 1961: authorizing

1962
estimate
This is a special fund, rather than a separate category of
aid, which is used to meet requirements for which no specific provision can be made in the regular categories of
assistance because requirements are uncertain or unknown
at the time the budget is prepared. As an illustration, the
rapid increase in newly independent countries may pose
problems to which response should be made in the interests of the United States—yet the dimensions of funding
requirements cannot at this time be predicted with accuracy. These funds can be used for both economic and
military assistance. While in past years, they were
used to meet unforeseen economic requirements, a portion
was required to meet military assistance needs in 1960.

A part of the mutual security dollar appropriations is to
be used to purchase agricultural surplus commodities
which are then to be sold to friendly countries for their
currencies. Local currencies accruing from these sales
are deposited in a special account and are used for economic and military activities in furtherance of mutual
security objectives. These activities include the local
costs of projects, budget support of the lesser developed
countries, and procurement of supplies and materials for
third countries.

Financing applied to program
The Development Loan Fund extends loans, credits
and guarantees to American or foreign individuals, businesses, financial institutions, or to foreign governments in
order to provide capital for projects and programs contributing to the economic growth of less developed free
countries.
To be eligible for DLF financing, an activity must be
located in one of the Jess developed friendly countries and
there must be a reasonable prospect that the loan will be
repaid. DLF considers (1) the availability of other freeworld financing on reasonable terms, (2) soundness of the
activity, (3) contribution to development of economic
resources, and (4) possible adverse effects upon the U.S.
economy with the understanding that loan assistance will
be most effective in countries where there is a clear willingness to take sound self-help measures, and where such
assistance is consistent with long-term economic development objectives. The DLF is administered to avoid
competing with either private investment capital, the
Export-Import Bank of Washington, the International
Bank for Reconstruction and Development, or other international financial institutions.
Budget program.—As of June 30, 1960, the Fund had
approved a total of 149 loans and 2 guarantees for development assistance in 44 countries, amounting to slightly less
than $1.4 billion. These loans cover power, irrigation,
transportation, industry, and other projects contributing
to economic development. About three-quarters of the
loans have been for railways, roads, electric-power generation and transmission, multipurpose irrigation, power and
flood control projects, manufacturing and industrial
development, and industrial development banks.
As of June 30, 1960, agreements resulting in formal
obligation of funds had been signed with borrowers for
117 loans and 2 guarantees totaling $1,000.6 million. As
the DLF is a new institution experiencing only its second
full year of operations in 1960, and as the rate of completion of major projects extends over a period of years,
expenditures under loans have not yet reached sizable
levels. However, 1960 net expenditures of $202.4 million
reflected a significant increase over 1959.
FUNDS APPROPRIATED TO THE PRESIDENT
It is estimated that loan approvals, loan agreements,
and expenditures will all increase in 1961 and 1962.

Financing.—The Fund is financed by means of appropriations totaling $1.95 billion through 1961. In addition, financing is provided by receipts from operations.
Repayment of loan principal and payment of interest
may be made either in dollars or local currencies as specified in loan agreements. The Fund's foreign currency
receipts are made available for sale by the Treasury, and
dollar proceeds become available to the Fund. Other
available revenue is anticipated from fees received from
borrowers for issuance of loan guarantees.
Operating results.—Revenue from interest and fees in
1960 included $2 million in dollars and $12.5 million in
dollar equivalents of foreign currencies. Such revenue is
expected to increase to about $3.5 million in dollars and
$17.7 million in foreign currencies for 1961 and to about
$7 million in dollars and $28.1 million in foreign currencies
for 1962. A total of $0.8 million was realized in dollars
during 1960 from sales of the Fund's foreign currency
holdings. This amount is expected to increase to $4.1
million in 1961 and $9.7 million in 1962. All earnings
will be retained for future lending.

Sources and Application of Funds (Operations) (in thousands of dollars)
The investment guarantee program encourages and
facilitates private American investment in economically
underdeveloped areas of the world. It provides guarantee
protection against loss from the following noncommercial
risks : (a) inconvertibility of local currency receipts from
the investment; (b) expropriation or confiscation of all or
part of the investment; and (c) war damage. The guarantees, which have a maximum term of 20 years, are now
available in any economically underdeveloped country
whose government has agreed with the U.S. Government
to institute the program. A total of 49 countries and
their overseas dependent territories have participated
through October 1960. Negotiations for agreements with
other countries are continuing.
Budget program.—Obligations of the program after
June 30, 1956, are based on a fractional reserve, which is
25% of total guarantees issued and outstanding since that
date. Guarantees issued prior to June 30, 1956, were
issued with 100% backing. Guarantees to be issued during 1962 are estimated at $200 million. Under the fractional reserve basis, this would require obligations of $50
million in 1962 to support the guarantees issued in that
year.
Financing.—The reserve funds for the program against
which obligations are made come from the following three
sources, and these sources would be used for payment of
claims in the order given:
(a) Revenue from a fee of approximately 0.5% charged
the investor for guarantee protection provided.
(b) Money recovered from the sale of assets or local
currency acquired by the U.S. Government as a result of
a loss due to payment of a claim.
(c) Borrowing authority given the program by the
Congress.
Operating results and administration.—The fund has
sustained no loss and no claims are pending. Fees
collected through June 30, 1960, are $5.4 million and are
carried forward as retained earnings as a reserve against
possible future loss. The fund bears no expense. Administrative expenses are paid from funds appropriated for
general administrative expenses of the economic assistance
programs and allocated to the International Cooperation
Administration.

authorizes grants to the State of Alaska for a 5-year
period ending June 30, 1964, to facilitate assumption by
by the State of responsibilities hitherto performed in
Alaska by the Federal Government.
These funds are to enable the President (a) to make
grants to the State to assist in financing functions transferred from the Federal Government, and (b) to finance
continued Federal operations for an interim period when
the State requests a delay in transfer of functions. In
June 1959, the State requested that the Federal Government continue operation of 17 primary and intermediate
airports, and allocations were made to the Federal
Aviation Agency for this purpose.
The $6 million requested for 1962 is the maximum

Title I of the Agricultural Trade Development and
Assistance Act of 1954 authorizes the sale of surplus agricultural commodities to friendly nations for their currencies, with reasonable precautions neither to displace U.S.
sales for dollars nor to disrupt unduly world commodity
prices. Such sales may include up to $1.5 billion of commodities a year, plus unused prior authority. The Commodity Credit Corporation finances the costs. The
foreign currencies generated by these sales may be used
(a) to help develop new markets for U.S. agricultural commodities, (b) to purchase strategic and critical materials,
(c) to procure military materiel and services for the common defense, (d) to purchase goods and services for other
friendly nations, (e) to promote balanced economic development and trade among nations including loans to American and foreign business firms abroad, (f) to pay U.S.
obligations abroad, (g) to make loans to promote multilateral trade and economic development abroad, (h) to
finance international education exchange activities, (i) to
translate and publish books and other publications abroad,
(j) to aid American-sponsored schools, libraries, and binational centers overseas, (k) to finance the translation
of scientific and technical publications and support scientific activities overseas, (1) to acquire buildings and grounds

abroad, (m) to finance participation in trade fairs and
related activities, (n) to acquire books from abroad, (o)
to aid American educational institutions abroad, (p) to
support workshops and chairs in American studies, (q) to
provide emergency relief, and (r) to finance audiovisual
materials and programs.
Most of the currencies are used for grants to and loans
in the foreign country without charge to appropriations.
Some are sold to appropriations covering normal diplomatic, defense, and other operations overseas or in the
case of excess or restricted currencies, to special foreign
currency program appropriations. The proceeds of such
sales go to the Commodity Credit Corporation. A lump-
sum appropriation is recommended to reimburse the
Commodity Credit Corporation for its losses which are
not made up through such sales.
As of June 30, 1961, it is estimated agreements will have
been signed calling for deposits of sales proceeds totaling
$6.4 billion. This will represent the market value of
commodities and ocean transportation in which the Commodity Credit Corporation investment will be approximately $9.5 billion.
Schedules covering special currency programs are included in the budgets for mutual security program, ExportImport Bank, National Science Foundation, United States
Information Agency, and the Departments of Agriculture,
Commerce, Defense, Health, Education, and Welfare,
Interior, and State. These schedules do not cover use of
currencies for sale to regular appropriations.

1. Intergovernmental relations.—This appropriation provides for continued attention by the Commission to interrelations of Federal, State, and local governments.
Representatives of the Federal, State, and local governments are brought together for consideration of common
problems, and to provide a forum for discussing the administration and coordination of Federal grant and other
programs requiring intergovernmental cooperation.
Proposed Federal and State legislative and administrative programs are developed to coordinate taxes at all
levels in order to reduce tax overlapping and simplify the
tax structure, and to reduce taxpayer-compliance costs
and costs of tax administration.
Technical assistance is provided in the review of proposed legislation to determine its overall effect in the
Federal system, and the most desirable allocations of
governmental functions, responsibilities, and revenue
among the several levels of government are recommended.

commemorate the participation of American Armed
Forces in the campaigns of World War I and World War
II. In addition, the Commission maintains the U.S.
National Cemetery, Mexico City, Mexico, and the
Santiago, Cuba, Surrender Tree Site. Interred in the
cemeteries are the remains of 125,621 servicemen who
lost their lives in battle. An additional 91,438 dead
whose remains were not recovered are commemorated by
memorial structures inscribed with their names. There
are 11 memorials and 8 cemeteries, each with a memorial
chapel, at World War I sites, and 14 cemeteries and
memorials at World War II sites.
Large numbers of American tourists and local citizens
visit the cemeteries and memorials to pay homage and to
view these points of historic, as well as artistic, interest.

New obligational authority (appropriation)
This is the 13th and final year of a program of construction of cemeteries and memorials to commemorate
the services of the American Armed Forces in World
War II. The construction program includes 14 cemeteries
and memorials in foreign countries, memorials in the
national cemetery in Hawaii and on the east and west
coasts of the United States, and reconstruction of a World
War I memorial destroyed in World War II. Construction will be virtually concluded by the end of 1961, with
the completion of the east coast memorial; the Hawaii
memorial is expected to be completed in 1962. Dedication of the Manila cemetery and the west coast memorial
took place in the fall of 1960, the other 13 cemeteries having been dedicated in the summers of 1956 and
1959.
INDEPENDENT
In light of the expected completion of this program in
1962, the budget provides for termination of the obligation
availability of this appropriation as of June 30, 1962.

The Commission procures raw materials; manufactures
special nuclear materials and atomic weapons; develops
improved weapons; conducts research and development
aimed at generation of atomic power and protection of
health against possible hazards arising from atomic energy operations; conducts investigations in the physical
and life sciences related to atomic energy, including investigation of controlled thermonuclear reactions; establishes and enforces regulations for civilian uses of atomic
energy; promotes industrial participation in atomic energy development for peaceful purposes; encourages
scientific and industrial progress through the dissemination of atomic energy information; and participates in
programs of international cooperation in peaceful applications of atomic energy.
The program is administered in the field through 12
major offices. Most of the Commission's activities are
carried on in Government-owned facilities by industrial
concerns and educational institutions operating under
contracts. Coordination with the armed services is

achieved through the Military Liaison Committee of the
Department of Defense.
Total program costs in 1962 are estimated at $2,486.9
million, or $2.9 million greater than the estimated 1961
costs of $2,484 million, and $47 million greater than
actual costs of $2,439.9 million for 1960. In 1962, increases are provided in the weapons program and in
research in the physical and biomedical sciences. Costs
for the procurement of raw materials, consistent with
present contractual commitments, and for Traduction of
special nuclear materials in 1962 decrease from the prior
year. In the reactor program, increases are provided for
the development of civilian power, naval propulsion, rocket
and ramjet propulsion reactors, and small auxiliary power
units—these being more than offset, however, by a reduction in the level of development of propulsion reactors for
military aircraft. In this latter area funds are provided
in 1962 to continue development of one type of nuclear
powerplant.
In 1962, as in 1960 and 1961, total program obligations
will exceed program costs, the difference being obligations
incurred for costs which will not materialize until future
years. Total program obligations for operating expenses
in 1962 are estimated to be $2,504.7 million compared to
$2,545.7 million in 1961 and $2,449.2 million in 1960.
1. Raw materials.—Uranium ores and concentrates are
procured for processing in the production facilities of the
Commission. An estimated 30,475 tons of concentrates,
of which approximately 60% will come from domestic
sources, will be obtained in 1962. This is a decrease of
1,575 tons from the 32,050 tons estimated to be procured
in 1961. Procurement in 1960 was 34,581 tons. Resource
evaluation will continue in the development of data on
uranium reserves.
2. Special nuclear materials.—Uranium concentrates are
processed into feed materials from which (a) plutonium is
produced in the reactors at Hanford, Wash., and Savannah
River, S.C., and (b) the isotope uranium 235 is extracted
in plants at Oak Ridge, Tenn., Paducah, Ky., and Portsmouth, Ohio. Production of special nuclear materials
will be at rates required to meet weapons production
schedules and nonweapons requirements. Work will continue on process improvements to assure continuity and
safety of operation and more economical methods of
production.
3. Weapons.—The program encompasses the production of weapons; the maintenance of stockpiled weapons
in a state of constant readiness; the development and design of new weapons types; maintenance of the Nevada
test site in a standby status; and test detection activities.
The test detection activities include an experimental program for improving the technique of detecting underground nuclear detonations and developmental effort on
systems to detect nuclear explosions at high altitude.
4. Reactor development.—This program includes primarily the development of (a) civilian power reactors
leading to reliable and economic power, including associated work on fuel element development and related
technology, (b) commercial ship reactors, (c) power and
propulsion reactors for a variety of military and space
applications, and (d) nuclear technology for other civilian
applications such as process heat reactors. The costs by

The Commission's civilian power reactor program
provides increases to establish a foundation of technical
knowledge through a program of research and development
on promising reactor concepts; design, fabrication, and
operation of power reactor experiments; the development
of experimental reactors; and development of prototype
powerplants usually on a cooperative basis with industry.
Increases are provided for the cooperative arrangements
program, whereby the Commission provides financial
aid in development of full-scale power reactors built by
private utilities and for public power bodies. This aid
provides a basis for a privately financed nuclear power
industry.
Costs of $2.7 million shown for Euratom are for research
and development under a joint program with the European
Atomic Energy Community for which appropriations of
$10 million have been authorized.
To provide broad support primarily for civilian power
reactor projects, the Commission's programs include general research and development on materials, components,
moderators, control techniques, fuel elements, spent fuels
reprocessing, and radioactive residues. Some of this work
is also applicable to military reactor development programs. Increases are provided for developing improved
fuel elements, radioactive waste processing and effluent
control, and reactor components to accelerate development of economic power.
The Commission's program for 1962 includes the continuation of work to develop atomic powerplants for use in
commercial vessels. The nuclear-powered merchant ship,
the NS Savannah, is scheduled to undergo startup, test
and trials in the latter half of 1961 and experimental
operations in 1962. Research and development work will
continue.
Efforts will be continued to develop reactors to meet
requirements of the Department of Defense and the
National Aeronautics and Space Administration. These
include propulsion reactors for submarines, surface combatant ships, military aircraft, ramjet missiles (Project
Pluto), space rockets (Project Rover), transportable power
reactors for the generation of electric power and heat at
remote military installations, and small power sources for
satellites and other special purpose applications (Project
SNAP). Increased cost levels in 1962 are principally for
development of nuclear rocket and ramjet engines, for
INDEPENDENT OFFICES
Project- SNAP, and for naval reactor development. Many
of the advances in military and other specialized reactor
development contribute significantly to the civilian power
program.
The Commission also operates the National Reactor
Testing Station in Idaho, including two test reactors
which provide irradiation services for the Commission's
programs.
5. Physical research.—Basic and long-range investigations in the fields of physics, mathematics, chemistry, and
metallurgy are undertaken to provide an ever-expanding
fund of theoretical and practical knowledge in fields related
to nuclear energy. By major category the costs are (in
thousands of dollars):

Research in high energy physics continues to expand as
new accelerators, on which construction was initiated in
prior years, are put into operation. The 1962 amounts
exclude provision for the Stanford accelerator which
is being proposed for authorization. Project Sherwood,
directed toward the production of power from the controlled fusion of heavy hydrogen nuclei, will continue.
Costs for research in chemistry and metallurgy will increase in 1962. Approximately 74% of the physical research program is conducted at 13 laboratories owned by
or operated for the Commission, and the remainder,
comprising approximately 510 projects, is supported in
more than 140 universities, colleges, institutes, and
independent laboratories.
6. Biology and medicine.—Research is conducted on
the effect of radiation on living things. It includes investigations of the biological effects of radioactivity in the
body, and the development of methods for minimizing
exposure to radioactive materials of all kinds and for
minimizing and protecting against the injurious effects
of radiation. Support is given to the development of
methods of utilizing radioactive materials for human
welfare and for the diagnosis, treatment, and understanding of human diseases, such as cancer. Evaluation of the
significance of human exposure to radioactivity from all
sources is given special emphasis. Research provides the
basis for establishment of standards to insure that the
Commission's activities are conducted with safety.
The major portion of the research is carried on at 15
laboratories which are owned by or operated for the
Commission, and the remainder, comprising approximately 550 projects, is supported in more than 220 universities, colleges, hospitals and independent laboratories.
The program includes the operation of several facilities in
the United States devoted to cancer research and two
laboratories in Japan for the determination of long-term
effects of atomic bomb radiation on the affected population.
7. Trainingj education and information.—This activity
includes operation of special schools; conduct of specialized
121
courses; granting of fellowships for graduate students;
assistance to high schools, colleges, and universities; and
dissemination of technical information, including participation in international conferences and exhibits on
nuclear science and technology.
Two schools will be operated in 1962: The International
Institute of Nuclear Science and Engineering at the
Argonne National Laboratory and the Puerto Rico
training center. Specialized courses are conducted at
the Oak Ridge Institute of Nuclear Studies. In addition, at the New York Health and Safety Laboratory,
at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and at the Shippingport reactor site, specialized courses including radiochemical and counting procedures and reactor hazards
and supervisory instruction will be offered. Charges to
nongovernment participants in these schools and courses
are based on the type of training provided.
In order to assist the States in the implementation of
Public Law 86-373, which provides for Federal cooperation with States in regulating the use of radioactive
materials, training courses have been established in
radiation safety, radiological health protection, waste
disposal, etc., for State and local government employees.
No tuition charges are made for these courses.
Under the fellowship program in 1962, approximately
150 college graduates, compared to 177 in 1961 and 134
in 1960, will receive assistance for graduate studies in
reactor technology. In 1962, 133 fellowships will be
offered in the fields of radiological physics, industrial
hygiene, and industrial medicine, which compares to 102
fellowships in these fields in 1961 and 95 in 1960. Assistance to schools to provide for educational programs in
atomic energy will be continued. Grants are made to
universities to help them acquire reactor training equipment, teaching aids, demonstration apparatus, and
special laboratory equipment. University summer courses
in general radiobiology are made available to high school
science teachers, and special faculty training in reactor
technology and radiobiology for university faculty members is provided.
To broaden the dissemination of information on matters
relating to atomic energy, the Commission operates the
technical information service, maintains libraries, performs translation services, and conducts tours with traveling atomic energy exhibits. The Commission arranges
for nuclear exhibits at selected foreign conferences and
exhibitions in order to demonstrate U.S. technology.
8. Civilian applications of isotopes and nuclear ex-
plosives.—This program provides for Commission participation in expanded applications of isotopes and the peaceful uses of nuclear explosives (Project Plowshare). The
costs for these programs are (in thousands of dollars):

gram includes the salaries and other costs for employees
of the Federal Government engaged in executive direction,
general management, and technical supervision of the
atomic energy program; the negotiation and administration of contracts; establishment and enforcement of regulations for civilian uses of atomic energy; and other related
administrative activities. Employees under this program
are located in the Headquarters in Germantown, Md., and
12 operations offices. The 1962 increase of $195 thousand
is related to a small increase in average employment,
which provides for full year employment at the June 30,
1961 level. No increase in staff is provided for 1962.
11. Security investigations.—The Atomic Energy Act of
1954 requires background investigations of those persons
proposed for access to restricted data of the atomic energy
program. The number of full background investigations
to be requested in 1962 is estimated at 18,500 compared
with 17,773 for 1961 and 19,443 for 1960.
12. Cost oj work for others.—In furthering the objectives
of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 concerning utilization
of atomic energy for peaceful purposes, the Commission

The increase in 1961 over 1960 is attributable principally to increases in (1) advances related to procurement of
uranium concentrates deferred until future years, and
(2) unpaid undelivered orders associated with the Cooperative power demonstration program, the Euratom
program, and special computer equipment for the weapons
program. The increase in 1962 over 1961 is attributable
principally to increases in (1) inventory balances related to
program requirements, (2) advances related to procurement of uranium concentrates deferred until future years,
and (3) unpaid undelivered orders related to higher
operating levels for the weapons program.

From this appropriation the Atomic Energy Commission constructs the plants and facilities necessary for its
production, research and development, and supporting
operations. Appropriations for plant acquisition and
construction and for financial assistance in the development of reactors require specific authorization by the Congress. Of the new obligational authority being requested
for 1962, $53.5 million applies to construction projects
previously authorized, with the balance of $121.5 million
being applicable to projects for which authorization is
being requested for 1962.
The details of the 1962 estimates by activity are as follows :
1. Raw materials.—This activity provides for minor
construction to support the Government-owned procurement installations.
2. Special nuclear materials.—This activity provides for
additions, modifications, and improvements to feed materials plants, the gaseous diffusion plants, and the pro-
duction reactor installations. Obligational requirements
in 1962 include $7.2 million to complete funding for the
new production reactor at Hanford, Wash., previously
authorized.
3. Weapons.—This activity provides for the construction and modification of facilities for the production of
weapons and for the development and engineering of new
weapon types.
4. Reactor development.—This activity provides for the
construction of laboratory buildings for fundamental
engineering work on reactor concepts and materials, facilities for the housing of reactor experiments, civilian power
experimental reactors generating electrical energy or producing over 10,000 kilowatts of heat, prototype power
reactors as part of the cooperative arrangements program
between the Commission and industry, prototype reactors
for military purposes, and construction of testing and
development installations. Funds provided in 1962 for
new projects requiring authorization relate principally to
construction of development and test facilities for nuclear
aircraft and systems for nuclear auxiliary power, a fuels
recycle pilot plant, and additional laboratory and technical support facilities. Obligational requirements in 1962
include $12 million for projects already authorized, principally development and test facilities for nuclear rockets
and missiles and a ground prototype for a naval natural
circulation reactor.
5. Physical research.—This activity provides for construction of large research machines and laboratory
buildings to further research in physics, chemistry, and
metallurgy. It includes construction and modification
of ultra-high energy particle accelerators in the multibillion electron-volt range, which will assist in obtaining
new knowledge about the atomic nucleus and the elementary particles. Funds provided in 1962 for new projects
requiring authorization relate principally to new laboratory buildings for research in chemistry and high energy
physics. Obligational requirements in 1962 include $34.3
million to complete funding for projects already authorized, principally the materials research laboratory, the
zero gradient synchrotron, and modifications to other
accelerators.
6. Biology and medicine.—This activity provides for
construction supporting biomedical research in atomic
energy. The principal item included in 1962 is a laboratory for mixed fission products inhalation studies.
7. Training, education, and information.—This activity
provides for minor construction in connection with the
Commission's training program.
8. Civilian applications of isotopes and nuclear explo-
sives.—This activity provides for the construction of
facilities required for research and development directed
toward the civilian applications of isotopes and the
peaceful uses of nuclear explosives. No new obligational
authority is being requested in 1962.
9. Communities.—This activity provides for improvements and additions to community facilities at Los
Alamos, N. Mex.
10. Administration.—This activity provides for improvements and modifications of administrative facilities
at the Commission headquarters in Germantown, Md.

Guarantees may be given on loans made by public or
private financial institutions to provide construction funds
and working capital for defense production plants. At the
beginning of 1960 guaranteed credit from private financial
institutions amounting to $3 million was available to two
borrowers; by year-end all outstanding loans were fully
paid. It is estimated that in 1961 and 1962 no guarantees
will be in force. Although Public Law 86-560 extended
the guarantee provisions of the Defense Production Act
to June 30, 1962, net earnings will be paid to Treasury in
1961, thereby closing out the account (50 U.S.C. App.
2091,2092).

The Board regulates the economic aspects of air carrier
operations, both domestic and international; investigates
aircraft accidents; participates in the development of
international air transportation; and participates in the
development of safety rules and standards. The increase
proposed for 1962 is for expansion in certain critical
program areas, primarily in the routes] and safety areas.
1. Economic regulation.—This includes [granting certificates of public convenience and necessity, prescribing or
approving rates and rate practices of air carriers, fixing
mail rate compensation, preventing unfair competition,
approving business relationships between air carriers, and
adjudicating complaints alleging violations of civil air
regulations.
2. Safety activities.—These consist of the investigation
of civil aircraft accidents involving aircraft over 12,500
pounds or causing fatalities, the determination of probable
cause in all civil aircraft accidents, and the investigation
of potential hazards and recommendation of preventive
measures to avoid accidents in the future.
3. Board adjudication, executive, and legal staff activities.—In addition to the adjudication of cases, program
planning, and top policy and decision making functions of
the Board, legal advice and assistance is provided on all
aspects of economic, regulatory, and safety activities;
opinions of the Board are prepared; and litigation matters
are handled.
5. Relation of costs to obligations.—The relationship is
derived from year-end balances of selected resources as
reflected in the following table (in thousands of dollars):

Adjustment of prior year obligations.
The Board fixes rates for transportation of airmail to
promote the development of air transportation required
for the commerce of the United States, the postal service,
and the national defense. Many of these rates include
an element of subsidy. The subsidy portion is paid by
the Civil Aeronautics Board, and the service portion is
paid by the Post Office Department.
At present, subsidy obligations incurred by the Board
in carrying out its ratemaking functions under section
406 of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 are not subject
to prior budgetary and appropriation control. Congressional appropriations provide only for making subsequent
payments to air carriers and have no effect on the Board's
authority to obligate the Federal Government for subsidies. These appropriations to liquidate contract authorizations are available until expended but are requested
only in the amounts required for payments estimated to
become due in the budget year. For 1961, it is currently
estimated that a supplemental appropriation of nearly
$22 million, shown under Proposed for later transmission,
will be required.
The obligations shown above, less the obligated balances recovered, reflect the amounts recorded each year
as due the air carriers. These sums cover services performed during the year, computed at rates then in effect,
plus or minus such adjustments as are needed to reflect
INDEPENDENT
the issuance, during the year, of rate orders affecting prior
years. Approximately 1 to 2 months of obligations are
due but unpaid at the end of any year.
The following table reflects the estimated amounts becoming due finally for each year, together with the adjustments between years (in thousands of dollars):

All domestic trunklines are in
nonsubsidized status. Subsidy
need for local service and helicopter operations has increased
as a result of certification of
additional service, acquisition
of new equipment, and increasing costs. Subsidy will
continue to support routes
between continental United
States and Alaska and to remote localities. Hawaiian and
international operations are in
nonsubsidized status.

The Federal Employees Health Benefits Act of 1959,
approved September 28, 1959, provides that beginning
in 1962 the Employees health benefits fund will be available for administrative expenses incurred by the Commission, within such limitations as may be specified
annually by the Congress. The act also authorized the
Commission, for 1960 and 1961, to pay for these administrative expenses from the Employees life insurance fund
without regard to limitation, subject to reimbursement
from the Employees health benefits fund for any amounts
expended in those years together with interest at a rate
to be determined by the Secretary of the Treasury.
The use of these funds is reflected in the schedules for
Advances and reimbursements.

The estimated decrease in costs for 1961 and 1962
resulted primarily from the lower number of points of
investigation because of the reduced period of coverage.
This saving was partially offset, however, by the recent
pay raise and the cost of the new health benefits program.
Operating results and financial condition.—The capital
of the fund consists of $4 million appropriated in 1952.
Excess earnings are paid into miscellaneous receipts of the
Treasury.

The Export-Import Bank of Washington facilitates and
assists in financing U.S. foreign trade. To do this it participates in or guarantees credits extended by U.S. exporters,
commercial banks, and other financial institutions to foreign purchasers of exports from the United States, and also
makes direct loans to finance U.S. exports. The Bank
initiated two new services in 1960: First, a plan of guarantees covering political risks on short and medium term
export transactions; second, participation by the Bank in
INDEPENDENT OFFICES
financing certain medium-term exporter loans relying
solely upon the credit judgment of a U.S. commercial bank.
In addition, the Bank insures against risks of war and
expropriation of certain exports held abroad on consign ment awaiting sale. The total amount of dollar loans,
guarantees, and insurance which the Bank may have
outstanding at one time is $7 billion (12 U.S.C. 635).
The Bank's policy is to extend credit only when private
capital is unavailable, and to encourage private participation in the credits extended. Loans generally are made
only for specific purposes or projects. No loan is made
unless the directors believe it has reasonable assurance
of repayment.
Development project loans.—A major portion of the
Bank's assistance for the exportation of U.S. materials,
equipment, and services is in the form of medium and
longer term credits for development projects abroad.
These loans not only finance export sales, but help lay
the foundation for expanded future trade through strengthening foreign economies.
It is estimated that 85 loans will be authorized by the
Bank during 1962 to finance exports of equipment and
related services for such projects abroad involving power,
agriculture, transportation, and industrial development.
This compares to 59 loans in 1960 and 80 estimated in
1961.

Emergency foreign trade loans.—From time to time
the Bank is called upon to provide financial assistance to
meet emergency situations adversely affecting normal
trade between the United States and another country.
Such loans may take the form of lines of credit to a
foreign central bank or other bank or financial institution
to provide dollar exchange for a wide range of U.S.
exports; credits to fund commercial arrearages resulting
from dollar exchange difficulties so that normal trade
may be resumed; or credits to assist in financing purchases in the United States required for reconstruction
abroad following a national disaster.

Political risk guarantees.—Under the new program of
short-term political risk guarantees, as of June 30, 1960,
the Bank had approved 28 contracts with total limitation
on liability thereunder of $17,204 thousand. It is estimated that 250 contracts with liability of $150 million
will be approved in 1961, and 350 contracts for $225
million in 1962.
Insurance.—The Bank insures against the risks of war
and expropriation certain property of U.S. exporters which
is held abroad on consignment awaiting sale. A total of
242 policies were issued by the Bank in 1960 covering
cotton and tobacco valued at $9.3 million. It is estimated
that policies covering cotton and tobacco to a value of
$10 million will be issued in 1962.
Administrative expenses.—To carry out the Bank's lending, collecting, and other operations in 1962 it is estimated
that a limitation of $2,750 thousand for administrative
expenses is necessary, an increase of $53 thousand over

several years when credit is not available from private loans of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation.
Exporter loans.—Medium-term credit assistance requested by individual exporters is authorized on a caseby-case basis to assist them to sell abroad on deferred
payments. Under each of these credits the Bank participates with an exporter or a U.S. bank in jointly financing
an export sale. Such loans authorized in 1960 included
credits to finance a wide range of capital goods shipped to
countries throughout the world.
Some exporter credits are arranged on an individual
basis, whereas others are provided under exporter credit
lines. The Bank has continued to establish and renew
exporter credit lines for individual exporters of capital
equipment. The recipient of such a line knows in advance
of new foreign sales the approximate terms he will be able
to offer on such sales as are made on credit, provided that
criteria on the type of export and the credit standing of
the importer are met.

Operating results and financial condition.—During
the
coming year the net income of the Bank is expected to
amount to $95.2 million. The budget provides for continuation of dividends to the Treasury of $22.5 million
annually through 1962 in lieu of interest on the Treasury
investment in the Bank's capital stock. The remaining
earnings are retained to meet future contingencies. Total
investment of the Government in the corporation is expected to be $3,361.1 million at the end of 1962, consisting
of $1 billion in capital stock, $1,579.2 million of borrowings
from Treasury, and $781.9 million of retained earnings
available for future contingencies.

1962
estimate
FUND—Continued
Financing.—The Bank is a Government-owned corporation in which the Treasury has invested $1 billion in
capital stock. It can borrow up to $6 billion from the
Treasury on a revolving basis. On June 30, 1960, outstanding borrowings from the Treasury were $1,631.2
million. Notes outstanding on June 30, 1962, are expected to be $1,579.2 million. In addition, the Bank
arranges the participation of private capital in loans
approved by the Bank, and sells notes from its portfolio,
thus minimizing the investment of public funds necessary.
It is anticipated that total receipts will equal total disbursements in 1962, resulting in no net budget expenditure
in that year.
On June 30, 1962, the total amount committed is estimated to be $5,461.2 million, leaving a margin of $1,538.8
million for additional commitments. Because disbursements occur over a period following commitment, it is
estimated that the unobligated balance of the Bank's
authorization to borrow from the Treasury will be $2,598.3
million at June 30, 1962.

thousand in 1961 and $4,272 thousand in 1962, thereby
eliminating the investment of the U.S. Government.

The Export-Import Bank administers foreign currency
loans to American firms for business development, and to
domestic or foreign firms for facilities aiding in the utilization of U.S. agricultural products abroad. These loans are
made from a share of the proceeds of the sale of surplus
agricultural commodities as authorized by the Agricultural
Trade Development and Assistance Act of 1954, as
amended (7 U.S.C. 1691-1724). This program was initiated in 1958. The Bank anticipates that obligations will
increase sharply in 1961 over 1960 by a speedup in obtaining signed loan agreements with borrowers, and because
allocations will become funded at a faster rate as current
Bureau of the Budget and Treasury Department procedures for funding become fully operative.

The Corporation is in liquidation, its only remaining
activity being the collection of non-interest-bearing notes
sold to Federal land banks on June 30, 1955, and paying
the proceeds as dividends to the Treasury. Its mineral
interests with the exception of two in the St. Paul district
which are in litigation, were transferred to the Department
of the Interior during 1958.
Operating results.—The retained earnings at the end of
1962, after making dividend payments to the Treasury
of $800 thousand, are expected to be $1.6 million. Payments will continue to be made to the Treasury until final
liquidation.

This fund is available to the Governor of the Farm
Credit Administration as a revolving fund for investment
in capital stock of the Federal intermediate credit banks
(12 U.S.C. 1061(a)(1), 1131i(e)).
Budget program.—Funds will be required in 1961 and
1962 for investment in class A stock of the banks. An
estimate of $9 million net investment is made for 1961 and
$8 million for 1962, leaving an unobligated balance of
$4,850 thousand available for future purchases of stock.
The estimate of requirements is based on recent projections
made by the 12 intermediate credit banks which indicate
that several of the banks will need additional capital in
order to keep their debt-to-capital ratios within the 10 to 1
maximum permitted by law.
Financing.—Under section 105(d)(3) of the Farm
Credit Act of 1956, the revolving fund authorization was
increased from $40 million to $70 million by making this
fund in effect the owner of $30 million of class A stock.
Of the $87,405 thousand of such stock outstanding as of
January 1, 1957, the sum of $57,405 thousand must be
retired by payments into the Treasury as miscellaneous
receipts. When the balance is reduced to $30 million the
remaining proceeds from retirement of such stock will be
credited to the revolving fund.

This fund is available to the Governor of Farm Credit
Administration for investment in class A and class C
stock of production credit associations and is designed to
enable the Farm Credit Administration to supply capital
needs which cannot be met by an association from local
sources (12 U.S.C. 1131i(a)).
Budget program.—An estimate for purchase of stock in
production credit associations of $3.5 million is made for
1961 and $4 million for 1962. The need arises primarily
because the volume of business of associations is increasing
more rapidly than net worth can be accumulated from
local sources.
Financing.—Of the $60 million in the fund authorized
for financing the capital needs of the production credit

Budget program.—No new subscriptions of capital stock
are anticipated and stock will be retired by the banks for
cooperatives in accordance with section 42(a)(1) of the
Farm Credit Act of 1933, as amended.
Operating results and financial condition.—Investment
in
capital stock will continue to be reduced through 1962,
thereby increasing the cash of the fund. Earnings are
retained to provide for the future purchase of stock.

BANKS FOR COOPERATIVES
The banks for cooperatives make loans to finance the
operations of farmers' cooperatives. The banks' capital
funds are from the Banks for cooperatives investment
fund and from borrowing farmers' cooperative associations (12 U.S.C. 1134). The Farm Credit Act of 1955 provides for eventual ownership of the banks by farmers' cooperatives and the retirement of the U.S. Government
investment.
No new subscriptions of capital stock are anticipated
and stock will be retired by the banks for cooperatives in
accordance with the act. Repayments of $8,052 thousand
have been made for 1961, and it is estimated that $8 million will be retired in 1962. As of June 30, 1960, the U.S.
Government owned capital stock in the banks in the
amount of $126,339 thousand.

act of 1956 the banks became mixed-ownership corporations and were made responsible for supervising and
assisting the production credit associations to enable
them to make sound credit available to farmers.
All of the capital stock of the Federal intermediate
credit banks from organization in 1923 to December 31,
1956, was held by the U.S. Government. The 1956 act
provided a long-range plan for the acquisition of credit
bank stock by production credit associations and the
gradual retirement of the Government's investment in
the banks. However, in the last few years the banks
have been called upon to provide associations with
substantially more funds to finance the short-term needs
of farmers and it has been necessary for the Federal
Government to invest additional capital in the banks in
order to keep the debt-to-capital ratios within the 10 to 1
maximum permitted by law. These funds have been
obtained from the Federal intermediate credit banks
investment fund which was authorized in the 1956 act.

FEDERAL AVIATION AGENCY
The Federal Aviation Agency encourages and fosters
the development of civil aeronautics and air commerce
by (a) managing the use of the navigable airspace and
regulating civil and military air operations; (b) installing
and operating aids to air navigation and traffic control
for civil and military aviation; (c) conducting research
to develop facilities and techniques needed to meet future
traffic control and navigation requirements; (d) licensing
airmen and aircraft; (e) establishing standards and rules
to promote safety; and by (f) administering a program of
grants-in-aid for construction and improvement of civil
airports.
A system of airways user charges will be proposed involving increased and new taxes on aviation fuel to recover
a reasonable share of the costs of airways services from the
groups which are directly benefited.

1. Traffic management.—This activity covers the operation of the national system of air traffic management in
the United States and its possessions. With the aid of
radar, communications, and other facilities, traffic management personnel at 36 centers monitor and control en
route flights of civil and military aircraft conducted under
instrument conditions to assure safety and to expedite the
flow of traffic. Control towers are operated at 237 major
civil airports to guide traffic movements on and in the
vicinity of the airports. Some 339 flight service stations
transmit weather and other essential information to pilots,
and relay traffic control data between ground controllers
and pilots. Major increases in 1962 are for (a) operating
newly commissioned traffic management facilities installed
with funds appropriated under Facilities and equipment;
(b) training of traffic management personnel; and (c) fullyear cost of facilities and services operated on a part-year
basis in 1961.

2. Facilities maintenance .—This covers maintenance of
the national network of aids to air navigation and traffic
control in the United States and its possessions. Major
increases in 1962 are for (a) maintenance and operation of
more aircraft used more intensively in checking the accuracy of airways facilities, particularly at higher altitudes,
and maintenance of newly acquired training aircraft;
(b) improvements in communications between and within
traffic control installations; and (c) full-year costs of
facilities and services operated for part of 1961.
3. Administration oj jlight standards program.—This
activity covers the establishment and enforcement of the
civil air regulations which are designed to assure high
standards of safety in aviation. Inspections are made
and certificates issued for aircraft, airmen, aircraft operators, and air agencies that meet safety or competency
requirements. Certain facility flight inspection functions

is being improved by the installation of new equipment
and the construction and modernization of facilities. In
addition, the appropriation finances major capital items
required by other agency programs such as aircraft for
facility flight inspection and personnel training, and experimental facilities for the research and development
program. The 1962 estimate will carry forward the

Under the Federal Airport Act, as amended, grants are
made to public agencies to aid the development and improvement of public airports. These grants generally
cover 50% of project costs and are limited to facilities
deemed essential for the safety, convenience, or comfort
of the traveling public. Contract authorizations for this
program are provided by existing legislation through 1961.

The Federal Aviation Agency carries out a program to
improve and modernize the national system of aviation
facilities through the development of new systems, procedures, and devices. The Agency also conducts a program of medical research to provide basic data needed in
the development of rules and regulations governing the
certification of airmen and to assure aviation safety.
Research is conducted through contracts with qualified
firms, universities, and individuals, or by Agency staff or
other governmental agencies. The data, procedures, or
equipments resulting from this research are evaluated and
tested to determine their potential value in meeting future
air traffic control and navigation needs.
Supervision and administrative support costs for research projects financed by this appropriation are covered
by the Operations appropriation. Costs of acquiring
experimental facilities and major equipment for the
research program are included in the Facilities and equipment appropriation.
1. Air traffic control and navigation.—This provides for
improving the airways system by adapting existing technology to air traffic control and navigation problems and
by long-range research and development to meet future
needs. The 1961 and 1962 program provides for increased
emphasis on development and testing of an automatic
data processing and display system for traffic control, as
well as for continuing studies of present airways system
operations and future requirements, theoretical analyses
of proposed facilities, and work in data acquisition, communications, navigation, and landing systems.
2. Aviation weather.—This provides for continuing a
program, coordinated with the Departments of Defense
and Commerce, to develop a national aviation weather
system. The 1962 estimate provides for studies and
equipment development on weather data acquisition, use
in forecasting, and presentation.
3. Aircraft safety.—This provides for research, testing,
and experimentation on aircraft structures and systems
in order to provide a sound basis for airworthiness standards and safety regulations. Work is also being done on
techniques and devices for airborne collision avoidance.
The 1962 estimate provides for an expanded effort on
fire protection, structural soundness, collision avoidance,
as well as other aircraft systems and equipment that
affect safety.

This appropriation finances management, operation and
protection activities as well as capital costs for equipment
and maintenance projects at the federally owned Washington National and Dulles International Airports which
serve the National Capital area. Major construction
at the airports is financed under the appropriation Construction, National Capital airports. The 1962 request
provides for increased traffic at Washington National
Airport, and commencement of operations at the new
Dulles International Airport.
Direct operating costs and capital outlays of the airports are currently financed by direct appropriations while
revenue received for services to tenants and other users
are deposited in the Treasury. Legislation is being proposed to establish a National Capital Airports Corporation to operate these airports.
Relation oj costs to obligations.—The relationship is derived from year-end balances of selected resources and
applicable adjustment as reflected in the following table

The following statements reflect financial results of the
total operations including unfunded depreciation on all
depreciable assets, interest on the Government's investment on a basis comparable to that of other major commercial airports, and total actual revenue together with
amounts representing the value of services furnished other
Government agencies for which no collections are made.
Unrealized revenue includes landing fees for Government
aircraft and rent for office and hangar space used by
Government agencies.
At Washington National Airport operations will continue to reflect a sound profit position. Increased costs
resulting from the expansion and modernization program
initiated in 1961 will be offset by the application of more
realistic charges in the landing area as expiring long-term
airline use agreements are renegotiated during the current
fiscal year. Operations at the new Dulles International
Airport will result in substantial deficits during the early
years of operations when traffic volume will be relatively
low. The anticipated rate structure at the new airport
is being developed on a basis to assure the recovery of
operating costs including interest and depreciation charges
and an appropriate return on the Government's investment
during the useful life of the facility. The following table
shows the revenue and expenses of the airports (in thousands of dollars):

Coal mine operators, affected by orders issued by
Federal coal mine inspectors, may appeal to the Board
for annulment or revision of, and temporary relief from,
such orders. During 1960, a total of 115 orders were
issued. When operators appeal, hearings are held, and
the Board rules upon the application. It is estimated
that there will be 100 to 125 orders subject to appeal to

The Corporation insures accounts of depositors in insured banks up to $10 thousand for each depositor. As
of June 30, 1960, the deposit insurance fund for the protection of depositors amounted to $2.16 billion or approximately 1.54% of all insured deposits on that date. Total
insured deposits at the end of 1959 and 1960, estimated on
the basis of information furnished as of June 10, 1959, and
June 15, 1960, amounted to $137 billion and $140 billion,
respectively. It is estimated that total insured deposits
as of June 30, 1961 and 1962 will amount to $145.6 billion
and $152.3 billion, respectively. No tax funds are used
in its operations. Its expenses are paid and the fund is
accumulated from assessments paid by insured banks and
from income on investments in obligations of the Treasury. However, the Corporation is authorized to borrow
from the Treasury, not to exceed $3 billion outstanding
at any one time, as required for insurance purposes. No
borrowings under this authorization have been made to
date and none are anticipated in 1961 or 1962.

The three-member Board supervises the Federal home
loan bank system, the system of Federal savings and loan
associations and the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance
tions.—The financial condition and operations of each
insured institution is analyzed and corrective action is
instituted when warranted. Supervision of insured institutions operating under State charter is carried on, cooperatively, under arrangements made with the respective
State authorities.
3. Chartering savings and loan
associations.—Federal
4. Examining savings and loan
associations.—Super-
savings and loan associations are chartered and regulated.
In addition, applications of State-chartered associations
for conversion into Federal savings and loan associations
are examined.
visory examinations are made of Federal savings and
loan associations, State-chartered associations insured by
the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation, and
such uninsured member institutions of the Federal home
loan bank system as are not examined by State examiners.
Audits are also made of approximately 68% of all insured
institutions in conjunction with supervisory examinations.
Examinations are also made of institutions applying for
insurance of accounts and for conversion from a State to
a Federal charter when required by the Board. The costs
of examinations and audits are assessed against the
institutions examined.
5. Executive direction and staff services.—This includes
formulation of basic policy and the furnishing of staff
services that are common to the Board and the Insurance
Corporation.
6. Administrative services.—These consist of auditing;
accounting; budgetary and financial reporting; internal
budget control; fiscal organization and management; and
general housekeeping and common operating services, including printing and reproduction work.
The amounts shown in the schedules for the above
activities include administrative expenses under annual
limitation; nonadministrative expenses under a separate
limitation; and certain additional expenses not under
limitation. Administrative expenses are estimated to decrease from $2,071 thousand to $1,725 thousand mainly
as a result of reclassifying the expenses of the No. 2
activity (supervision of Federal- and State-chartered institutions from administrative to nonadministrative). Nonadministrative expenses covering the expenses of examining savings and loan associations are discussed separately
below.

INVESTMENT IN FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANKS—Continued
The Federal home loan banks, together with the building and loan associations and similar institutions which
are members of the banks, constitute the Federal home
loan bank system and are designed to stabilize and
strengthen institutions promoting private thrift and individual home ownership.
The 11 Federal home loan banks obtain their funds from
capital stock, issuance of their own obligations, and deposits of member institutions. The capital stock of the
banks consists entirely of subscriptions of member institutions. Authority to borrow from the Treasury in the
amount of $1 billion is provided in 12 U.S.C. 1431 (64
Stat. 257). No borrowings have been made to date and
none is anticipated in 1962.

The Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation
is authorized under title IV of the National Housing Act
(12 U.S.C. 1724 et seq.) to insure savings in all Federal
savings and loan associations and in State-chartered
institutions of the savings and loan type which apply and
are approved for insurance. The protection thus afforded,
which insures savers in member associations against
financial loss up to a statutory limit of $10 thousand, may
be provided through the prevention of default or the payment of insurance to savings account holders in the event
of liquidation. The former course of action, which results
in complete protection to each investor regardless of the
amount in his account, is accomplished by making cash
grants or by purchasing all or a part of the association's
assets. Also, the Corporation is authorized to make loans
to institutions in financial difficulty. Wherever possible,
preventive measures are taken to eliminate the necessity
of liquidation. However, in the event liquidation is
necessary, the Corporation acts as receiver for all federally
chartered associations and may act as receiver or coreceiver
upon request of State authority in cases involving Statechartered institutions.
The Corporation functions under direction of the
Federal Home Loan Bank Board, which provides certain
administrative services and conducts the examination and
supervision of insured institutions. The expenses of the
Board and its staff officers are paid from assessments made
on the Corporation, the Federal home loan banks, and the
division of examinations.

1. Administrative expenses—(a) Underwriting.—This ac-
tivity constitutes an analysis and evaluation of the insurance risk in connection with applications for insurance of
accounts and other applications submitted pursuant to
regulatory requirements. The assets of insured institutions have increased $15.7 billion or 32.9% in the last 2
years. The continuing interest in insurance of accounts
on the part of uninsured institutions, plus the anticipated
rate of normal growth, will increase the potential liability
of the Corporation to an estimated $71 billion by June 30,
1962, as compared to $54.8 billion on June 30, 1960.
(b) Prevention oj default and payment of insurance.—In
carrying out its role of protecting savings in insured savings and loan associations, the Corporation has settled 38
cases since its creation 26 years ago. Total losses to June
30, 1960, have amounted to $5,204 thousand or slightly

Still pending as of this date are two cases; in one, loans

anticipated that a purchase of assets will be effected to
facilitate a merger.
(c) Analysis of operations.—The Corporation maintains a current analysis of the financial condition of member institutions, the flow of savings, and the character and
volume of mortgage lending, including selective review of
geographical or community areas and phases of operations and certain analyses of trends in the field of thrift
and home mortgage finance.

1. Antimonopoly.—All types of monopolistic restrictions, including price-fixing conspiracies, boycotting, price
discriminations, and illegal mergers and acquisitions are
corrected; economic data and criteria are brought to bear
on monopoly and related problems; and supervision is
provided over the registration and operations of associations of American exporters engaged solely in export trade.
In 1962, field investigation and trial of merger and other
antimonopoly cases will be expedited.
2. Deceptive practices.—False and misleading advertising
and other unfair or deceptive practices are prevented by
corrective action, including the affirmative aid of voluntary trade-practice conferences and advertising guides;
business and the public are protected from the evils of
misbranding and nondisclosure of fiber content of manufactured wool products and household textile articles;
consumers and merchants are protected from unfair practices with respect to furs and fur products; and the public
is protected from dangers inherent in flammable fabrics.
In 1962, field investigation and trial of deceptive practice
cases will be expedited, and the Commission will continue
with the program of enforcement of the Textile Fiber
Products Identification Act.
6. Relation oj costs to obligations.—The relationship is
derived from vear-end balances of selected resources as
reflected in the following table (in thousands of dollars):
Selected resources at end of year: Inventories and items on order:
Stores (goods unconsumed by projects).
Unpaid undelivered orders (appropriation balances obligated for goods and

menced under the terms of an en bloc agreement with
Poland. Funds totaling $40 million will be deposited by
Poland over a period of 20 years from which the Treasury
will make payments against awards certified by the Commission. An estimated 20 thousand claims are expected
to be received in the Commission by the filing deadline of
September 30, 1961. This program is expected to be completed within 5 years. A small field office in Warsaw,
Poland, will investigate validity of claims data.
A total of 4,012 claims of U.S. nationals against Czechoslovakia has been received. The processing of claims
should be approximately 90% completed by the end of
1962. Awards will be paid out of a $9 million trust fund
held by the Treasury and a 5% deduction will be made
as an offset against appropriations for administrative
expenses.
2. Review of claims programs.—Research, reports, documentation, and similar functions responsive to requirements of the Congress and of other agencies of the Government concerning past, present, and proposed programs
and problems are covered by this activity.
