EXPLANATION OF ESTIMATES
Part I contains various tables and schedules in support
of the budget, 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 for which congressional action in an appropriation
bill is required. It also contains the text of general provi­
sions proposed for enactment by the Congress, which apply
to entire agencies or groups of agencies.

ARRANGEMENT
The chapters of this part reflect the branches of Govern­
ment, and the major departments and agencies of the
executive branch. For the latter, most smaller agencies are
groimed in one chapter— “Other independent agencies.”
Within each chapter there are three main sections. The
first section covers programs authorized by existing legis­
lation (including items for which extension or renewal of
existing legislation is requested). This section is organized
by major subordinate organizations within the agency
(usually bureaus). For each bureau, Federalfunds, covering
the funds owned by the Government, precede trust funds,
covering funds which are held in a fiduciary capacity by
the Government. Generally, accounts with new budget
authority in 1974 will precede those without such an
entry.
The second major section of each chapter covers the
legislative program which reflects the costs of proposed new
legislation. This section is also organized by bureau or

other major subordinate organization. The proposals are
applicable to Federal funds unless otherwise indicated.
The third section of each chapter includes the general
provisions of appropriation language which are applicable
to the agency in that chapter, and are in addition to the
specific language pertaining to individual appropriation
items. General provisions which apply to specified groups
of agencies are placed in the chapter covering the first
agency which appears in the respective appropriation act.
However, the general provisions which are Governmentwide in scope (identified “Departments, Agencies, and
Corporations” ) and are contained in the Treasury, Postal
Service, and General Government Appropriation Act, are
placed at the end of the Executive Office of the President
chapter.
An explanation of the types of funds included in the
budget may be found in Part 6 of the compact volume—
The Budget of the United States Government, 1974•

FORM OF DETAILED MATERIAL
A PPR OPR IATION

LANGUAGE

The language proposed for inclusion in the 1974 appro­
priation 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 transmittal. The language of the 1973 appro­
priation acts, printed in roman type, is used as a base.
Italic type indicates proposed new language. Brackets en­
close material which is proposed for omission, as in this
example :
S a l a r ie s a n d E x p e n s e s

For expenses necessary for the general administration of the
Department of Commerce, including not to exceed $1,500 for official
entertainment, [$7,900,0001 $8,000,000. (15 U.S.C. 1501; Depart­
ment of Commerce Appropriation Act, 1973.)

Following the language, and printed in italic within pa­
rentheses, are citations to relevant authorizing legislation
and to the appropriation act from which the text is taken.
(When an appropriation bill has not been enacted at the
time the budget is submitted, the language relates only to
1974 and is italicized with no brackets shown.)
BASIS

FOR

SCHEDULES

The 1973 column generally includes enacted amounts,
except that two regular appropriation bills have not yet
been enacted. In those instances, the amount shown will
be the 1973 budget request, as revised. For certain ac­
counts which have received supplemental appropriation»,
but as yet have not received their regular 1973 appropria­
tion, separate memorandum entries appear for both pend­
ing and enacted 1973 budget authority amounts. In a few
cases, amendments to 1973 pending budget requests are
shown in a brief additional program and financing sched­
ule in Part I. This amendment is further explained, and
6




accompanied by any necessary appropriation language, in
Part III.
In a few places rescissions of enacted appropriations are
proposed and appear in the regular program and financing
schedules of Part I. Proposed language and an explanation
of the rescission are included in Part III.
The basic schedules for Federal and trust funds usually
exclude supplemental estimates which are transmitted to
Congress separately. These later transmittals are covered
by brief program and financing schedules, without ap­
propriation language. However, those supplemental es­
timates which are being transmitted for consideration
with the 1974 budget, identified as: “Supplemental now
requested” , have appropriation language in Part III of
this document.
The 1974 column includes, within the regular schedules,
appropriations for recommended extension or renewal of
expiring laws; however, money for new legislation is shown
in separate schedules under the legislative program section
of each chapter. Appropriation language is included with
the regular schedules, but not with the separate schedules.
Where the required data are available in the accounting
system, budgets are presented in terms of costs. Detailed
operating cost figures for each activity or object are the
value of goods and services consumed in carrying out the
program. In the case of capital outlay programs, they are
the value of assets acquired.
Total obligations are always shown; activities and ob­
jects are reflected on an obligation basis where cost data
are not available. Obligations refer to orders placed, con­
tracts awarded, loan agreements made, and recurring serv­
ices (such as rent, utilities, and personal services) received
during the year, regardless of the time of payment.
For a few Government corporations, the detail and
the totals of limitations are on the basis of accrued
expenditures.

D E TA IL E D ESTIM A TE S FOR FE D E R A L FU NDS
SCHEDULE OF PROGRAM AN D

7

F IN A N C IN G

This schedule consists of three parts. In the “ Program by
activities” section, costs or obligations are classified by
purpose, program, type of activity, or project for 1972,
1973, and 1974. This classification is individually de­
veloped for each appropriation or fund, and is not uniform
on a Government-wide basis. Similarly, the identifica­
tion of capital outlay is not handled uniformly. Where it
is of significance, capital outlay is shown by activity.
Otherwise, the total for each year is disclosed by footnote.
Where budgets are presented in terms of costs, the rela­
tion of costs to obligations is summarized in an entn^
“Change in selected resources.” For appropriation ac­
counts, and for revolving funds for which no business-type
financial statements are presented, this entry is supported
by a footnote identifying the amounts of the resources
involved. For the remaining revolving funds, the items are
identified on the statement of financial condition and the
appended tabulation.
In certain cases, this schedule is expanded to include
additional columns that provide a more informative pres­
entation. This is done, for example, in some construction
or procurement programs to show related cost data; for
certain Defense items to identify the total obligations
programed; and for programs financed at a “preobliga­
tion” stage (such as “commitments” in some loan pro­
grams) .
The “Financing” section shows the fund sources, budget
authority, and other means of financing the program, and
the disposition of unobligated amounts not used during
the year.
The section on “ Relation of obligations to outlays”
shows obligations net of receipts and other offsets, obli­
gated balances at the start and end of the year, and other
items which affect the relation of obligations to outlays.

Permanent positions are those which are established or
occupied for a year or more. The nature of the position
governs. Thus a permanent position may be occupied by
an employee whose appointment is either temporary or
permanent in nature. These positions may be full-time
(full workweek) or part-time (less than a full workweek).
Average grades and salaries are computed arithmeti­
cally. Thus the average salary can fall outside the salary
range of the average grade.
STATE M E N T OF R E V E N U E AND E X P E N S E

For many revolving funds there is a statement of
revenue and expense that shows the resulting net income
or loss for the year. This statement is usualty on a full
accrual basis, including provision for depreciation, for
losses on receivables, etc.

This balance sheet excludes balances of appropriations
and borrowing authorizations which have not yet been
paid into the revolving fund. Because the balance sheet
is on an accrual basis, the “Liabilities'’ section does not
reflect obligations incurred for which the liability has not
accrued. Nor does the “Assets” section reflect unfilled
customer orders received, even though such orders are a
basis for obligation in the case of intragovernmental
revolving funds. The “ Government equity” section,
therefore, shows obligations (which have not yet become
accrued liabilities), the unobligated balance, unfilled
customers' orders on hand (where relevant), and invested
capital and earnings.
Appended to the balance sheet is an “Analysis of
Changes in Government Equity.” This analysis is divided
into three sections, as appropriate: (a) interest-bearing
capital, (b) non-interest-bearing capital, and (c) retained
earnings. Each of these sections shows the beginning
balance, changes occurring during the year (e.g., net
income for the year, retained earnings transferred to the
general fund, net borrowing, etc.), and the balance at the
end of the year.

BUDGETS NOT SU JECT TO REVIEW
The presentations herein for the Legislative Branch, the
Judiciary, the Comptroller of the Currency in the Treasury
Department, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation,
the Milk Market Orders Assessment Fund of the Depart-

ment of Agriculture, the Farm Credit Administration, and
the annexed budgets (other than the Export-Import
Bank) have been included, without review, in the amounts
submitted by the agencies.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN BUDGET TABLES AND APPENDIX TABLES
IN TR AB U D G E TA R Y

TRANSACTIONS

The consolidation of Government-administered funds in
the compact budget volume may cause duplication in the
totals. This occurs when the payment from one of the
fund groups (Federal or trust) is credited to a receipt
account in the other, and appropriated therefrom. In
order to avoid duplication, intrabudgetary transactions
(i.e., interfund and intragovernmental transactions) are
deducted from the combined aggregates of both budget
authority and outlays.




PROPRIETARY RECEIPTS FROM TH E

PUBLIC

The compact budget volume offsets against outlays
for each agency and function the receipts from the public

Personal services and incidental expenses for basic
operations are financed from this appropriation.
1. Acquisition oj library materials.— The Library's collec­
tions are developed in accordance with established acquisi­
tion policies: materials are procured by purchase, gift,
exchange, copyright deposit, transfer and official deposit;
and materials are selected for addition to the permanent
collections. The objective for 1974 is continued improve­
ment in acquisition coverage and procedures. The collec­
tions totaled 85,200,777 items as of June 30, 1972, and
consisted of 16,022,327 books and pamphlets; 30,618,658
manuscript pieces and 38,559,792 maps, pieces of music,
reels of microfilm, photographs, and other miscellaneous
items. Of the items received in 1972, 21,062,480 were
added to the permanent collections. This figure is un­
usually high because of the large gift of the “Look”
magazine pictorial file received during the year, numbering
approximately 19,115,000 pieces. Pieces received from
various sources in 1972 and estimated for 1973 and 1974
are as follows:

2. Organization oj the collections.— Library materials are
cataloged, classified, marked, and arranged; Library of
Congress catalogs are maintained; special collections are
organized for use. The objectives for this activity in 1974
are the continued maintenance on a current basis of the
Library's record of serial publications, the maintaining of
currency in the filing of cards into the Library Card
Catalogs, the reduction of cataloging arrearages, the im­
provement of cataloging methods and procedures to assure
the usefulness of the collections.
Selected performance data for 1972 and estimated for
1973 and 1974 (not including processing activities per­
formed by the Reference Department and Law Library)
are as follows:

4. National program fo r acquisitions and cataloging.—
Under NPAC, the Library o f Congress seeks to acquire
abroad, catalog immediately, and disseminate cataloging
data rapidly for all current monographic works of research
value, in order to meet the urgent needs of American
libraries. The outstanding success of the program can be
clearly measured by the enormous increase of 128% in the
number of books cataloged— from 109,789 new titles in
1965 (prior to the program) to 249,983 new titles in 1972.
More than doubling the amount of current cataloging
available has resulted in savings of many millions of dollars
by libraries across the Nation. Prior to the establishment
of the NPAC program, independent studies had shown
that Library of Congress cataloging for its own purposes
met only 50% of the cataloging needs of the American
research library community.
The objectives of this activity in 1974 are the continua­
tion of the basic program at its 1973 level in order to
continue providing necessary catalog copy automatically
and rapidly to college, university, and other research
libraries which now rely greatly upon the Library of
Congress for such cataloging. New program objectives in
1974 include the conversion of the Public Law 480 office
in Tel Aviv to an NPAC regional acquisitions operation;
completion of NPAC shared cataloging coverage of Europe
where possible and the searching of U.S. and Far Eastern
imprint reports in order to inform research libraries of the
status of Library of Congress cataloging.
5. Preservation of library materials.— Library materials
are preserved in their original format by being bound or
rebound, by deacidification and lamination, and by repair
and restoration. Materials also are preserved by converting
them to a more durable base through microfilming of
books and newspapers, by conversion of nitrate film to a
safety base, and conversion of deteriorating sound record­
ings to a durable base material. In addition the Library
conducts original research into the many unsolved preser­

is also maintained. Requests for cards for any of the
5,350,000 less frequently ordered titles are satisfied by
duplicating (through offset, photographic, or electrostatic
means) the copy of the card kept in the master file. The
Card Division carries on its books accounts for 34,496
subscribers, about 25,000 of which are active accounts in
any given year. In 1972, 75% of this appropriation was
recovered in the form of receipts from card and publica­
tions sales. Receipts of $7,188,821 were deposited in
miscellaneous receipts of the Treasury in 1972. The
objectives for 1974 are: meeting the continuing demand for
catalog cards and maintaining a reasonable level of
service and economy; the continued development of the
“National Union Catalog” as the country’s major biblio­
graphic and locational tool; the development of other
technical publications; and the use of new technology to
improve service, to increase efficiency, and to reduce costs.
1. Supplying cards for the Library of Congress.— The
number of cards supplied to the Library of Congress in
1972 was 47,856,877; estimated for 1973, 50 million, and
estimated for 1974, 55 million.
2. Supplying cards for other libraries.— The number of
cards sold in 1972 was 72,002,908; sales for 1973 and 1974
are estimated at about the same, or a slightly lower, level.

Outlays________________________

1,195

This appropriation is used to acquire library materials,
both current and noncurrent, in all subject fields except
those in the field of law, clinical medicine, or technical
agriculture. Materials acquired by purchase constitute
an exceedingly important part of the Library’s acquisi­
tions although they generally represent only a limited
portion of the total number of pieces received annually.
The objects for 1974 are: to continue procurement of
important research materials to insure the continuous
and comprehensive development of the Library’s collec­
tions thereby maintaining their national preeminence;
to continue the purchase of important foreign commercial
books, newspapers, and periodicals; to continue the ex­
tensive procurement of essential research materials from
areas critical to the U.S. foreign relations, particularly
from Eastern Europe, Africa, Asia, and Latin America;
to continue to strengthen the Library’s current acquisi­
tions in the rapidly expanding fields of science and tech­
nology; and to acquire highly selected, important, noncurrent materials needed to provide better service to
Congress and to increase the usefulness to current research
of the subject collections.

This appropriation constitutes the only means of
acquiring law books published in the regular domestic
trade (except for copyright deposits) and many foreign
law books published in countries all over the world. The
legal publications acquired by purchase constitute the most
important part of the Law Library’s acquisitions, although
a substantial part of the annual receipts is received by
means other than purchase. The special objectives for
1974 are: to continue the procurement of certain current
domestic and foreign legal materials where upkeep service
and expeditious receipt are necessary and receipt through
exchange and gift is irregular; to improve the coverage
of important Hispanic, African, Middle Eastern, and Far
Eastern sources; to continue the procurement of both
current and noncurrent materials needed to strengthen
the Law Library’s already comprehensive holdings of
critical areas in Eastern Europe, Asia, and Africa; and
to continue the acquisition of microforms and photo­
duplicates of important research items, especially those
from critical areas, which are no longer obtainable in the
original.

Objectives for 1974 are: (1) sustained procurement of
books and magazines in braille and sound recording media,
(2) procurement of a sufficient number of machines to
equip newly registered blind and physically handicapped
readers and to replace some of the obsolete machines, and
(3) improvement of information resources for readers and
librarians throughout the country about available material.
2. Reader Service.— During the past 5-year period,
1968-72, the number of blind and physically handicapped
readers throughout the country has grown from over
142,000 to about 322,000 and circulation from approx­
imately 5,300,000 units (volumes, containers, and reels)
to about 9,110,000. As a result of the expanded program,
the number of readers and circulation are expected to
continue to increase in 1973 and 1974. Inquiries are re­
ceived concerning library and related services available to
the blind and to other physically handicapped persons.
Individuals throughout the Nation who are interested in
transcribing or proofreading braille are trained and those
qualified are certified. During 1972 over 570 individuals
were certified, and it is anticipated that this level will con­
tinue during 1973 and 1974. In addition, books are tape
recorded by volunteers throughout the country. The
division provides guidance and direction to the cooperating
libraries throughout the country. The division maintains

The Division for the Blind and Physically Handicapped
is responsible for administering a national program to
provide reading material for the blind and physically
handicapped of the United States and its outlying areas.
It has two closely related operations.
1. Procurement and distribution.— It procures books in
embossed characters, talking books with their associated
reproducers, and catalogs and publications of material
available. The books are distributed through 51 regional
libraries which assume responsibility for their custody
and circulation. The reproducers are distributed through
74 State agencies and libraries. The maintenance and
procurement of these books are shown in the following

Under authority originally granted in section 104 (n) of
Public Law 85-931 (new section 104(b)(5) of the Food for
Peace Act of 1966) the Librarian of Congress may use
foreign currencies accruing under this act to provide infor­
mation of technical, scientific, cultural, or educational
significance to the United States through the collection of
foreign library materials and the distribution of copies
thereof to libraries and research centers in the United
States. The program is being carried on in eight countries
in 1973: Ceylon, Egypt, India, Israel, Nepal, Pakistan,
Poland, and Yugoslavia. Of the total amount requested,
$1,971,400 will be used to purchase foreign currencies,
while $295,600 will provide U.S. dollar support.
1. Acquisition of books and other library materials.— Based
upon the requirements of other Federal agencies and
certain research libraries in the United States, publications
and other library materials will be purchased in multiple
copies from eight countries and distributed to selected
libraries and research centers in the United States, includ­
ing the Library of Congress.
2. Program support (U.S. dollars).— U.S. dollars are
required to pay certain expenses which cannot be paid by
foreign currencies, such as salaries and personnel benefits
of U.S. personnel abroad, salaries of the coordinating staff
at the Library of Congress, shared administrative support
provided by the Department of State, travel in some in­
stances, and equipment and supplies which cannot be
procured abroad.

published catalog will comprise 600 volumes. Over 240
volumes have been published. The preparation of the 18th
full edition and the 10th abridged edition of the “ Dewey
Decimal Classification,” begun during fiscal year 1966,
was completed and both editions published in 1972 and
work on the 19th edition is now underway.

Appropriations in this Act available to the Library of Congress
for salaries shall be available for expenses of investigating the loyalty
of Library employees; special and temporary services (including
employees engaged by day or hour or in piecework); and services
as authorized by 5 U.S.C. 3109.
Not to exceed fifteen positions in the Library of Congress may be
exempt from the provisions of appropriation Acts concerning the
employment of aliens during the current fiscal year, but the Librarian
shall not make any appointment to any such position until he has
ascertained that he cannot secure for such appointments a person in
any of the categories specified in such provisions who possesses the
special qualifications for the particular position and also otherwise
meets the general requirements for employment in the Library of
Congress.
Funds available to the Library of Congress may be expended to
reimburse the Department of State for medical services rendered to
employees of the Library of Congress stationed abroad and for
contracting on behalf of and hiring alien employees for the Library
of Congress under compensation plans comparable to those author­
ized by section 444 of the Foreign Service Act of 1946, as amended
(22 U.S.C. 889(a)); for purchase or hire of passenger motor vehicles;
for payment of travel, storage and transportation of household goods,
and transportation and per diem expenses for families en route (not
to exceed twenty-four); for benefits comparable to those payable
under sections 911(9), 911(11), and 941 of the Foreign Service Act
of 1946, as amended (22 U.S.C. 1136(9), 1136(11), and 1156,
respectively); and travel benefits comparable with those which are
now or hereafter may be granted single employees of the Agency for
International Development, including single Foreign Service per­
sonnel assigned to A .I.D . projects, by the Administrator of the
Agency for International Development— or his designee— under
the authority of section 636(b) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961
(Public Law 87-195, 22 U.S.C. 2396(b)); subject to such rules and
regulations as may be issued by the Librarian of Congress.
Payments in advance for subscriptions or other charges for
bibliographical data, publications, materials in any other form, and
services may be made by the Librarian of Congress whenever he
determines it to be more prompt, efficient, or economical to do so

The sale of Government publications has been steadily
increasing, and in the past 10 years the sales volume has
increased 112%. The current public interest in the Gov­
ernment’s publishing program clearly indicates a continu­
ing increase in the volume of sales.
2. Distribution fo r other agencies and Members of Con­
gress.— 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 are also pro­
vided for farmers' bulletins, soil surveys, and other publi­
cations which are allocated to Members of Congress on a
quota basis.
3. Depository library distribution.— Upon request, one
copy of every Government publication is supplied to
libraries which are designated as depositories for Govern­
ment publications. The number of depository libraries has
increased 82% since 1962.
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 U.S. Gov­
ernment Publications and the Numerical List and Schedule
of Volumes.

On June 30, 1972, 17 judges of the court were partici­
pating in the fund, and two eligible widows were receiving
survivorship annuity payments.

S e c . 102. No part of the funds appropriated in this Act shall be
used for the maintenance or care of private vehicles.
S e c . 103. Whenever any office or position not specifically estab­
lished by the Legislative Pay Act of 1929 is appropriated for herein
or whenever the rate of compensation or designation of any position
appropriated for herein is different from that specifically established
for such position by such Act, the rate of compensation and the
designation of the position, or either, appropriated for or provided
herein, shall be the permanent law with respect thereto: Provided,
That the provisions herein for the various items of official expenses
of Members, officers, and committees of the Senate and House, and
clerk hire for Senators and Members shall be the permanent law
with respect thereto.

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 bank­
ruptcy statutes. This jurisdiction primarily is exercised
through referees appointed by the several district courts.
Their compensation and benefits are paid from this appro­
priation, which is derived from a special fund in the Treas­
ury to which are deposited payments of fees and charges
by parties to the proceedings.

The Administration proposes abolishing the National
Aeronautics and Space Council because it is no longer
needed. Policy issues of the past have been largely resolved
in this area of technology. Existing interagency coordinat­

The Office of Emergency Preparedness advises and as­
sists the President with respect to nonmilitary emergency
preparedness activities. This includes coordinating emer­
gency preparedness programs of Federal departments and
agencies and providing staff support and policy guidance
for emergency resource management planning functions.
The President has delegated to the Office of Emergency
Preparedness responsibility for administering the Disaster
relief fund and related natural disaster activities. Specific
programs include:
1. Emergency readiness.— OEP develops policies, plans,
and programs to provide for continuity of civil government
at the Federal, State, and local levels. The principal ob­
jectives are to preserve duly constituted authority and
leadership and to enable civil government to respond to,
and operate in, a national emergency. OEP undertakes
planning related to mobilization and management of criti­
cal resources for use during a national emergency, and
develops plans to permit all levels of government to under­
take economic stabilization activities during an emergency
situation.
2. Critical materials policy planning.— OEP provides
guidance to other Federal departments and agencies on
the development of programs to administer national policy
for certain critical material items. The Director of OEP
is responsible for determining whether imports threaten
to impair the national security; and for policy direction,
coordination and surveillance of the oil import program.
3. Analytic and computational support.— The program
activities described in paragraphs 1 and 2 above require
extensive analytical and computational support. This sup­
port is provided by the activities in this program.
4. Executive direction, staff, and administrative support.—
Executive direction and staff and administrative support
for the Office of Emergency Preparedness is provided under
this activity. Funds are included to finance the salaries of

The Appalachian regional development program assists
the Appalachian region to meet its problems, promote
its economic development, and to establish a frame­
work of joint Federal and State efforts to provide the
basic facilities essential to economic growth in Appalachia.
Program investments made in the Appalachian region
are concentrated in areas where there is significant poten­
tial for future growth and where the expected return on
public dollars invested will be the greatest.
The States, acting through the Appalachian Regional
Commission, are responsible for recommending local and
State projects within their borders for assistance under
this program.
1.
Appalachian Development Highway System.— Section
201 of the Appalachian Regional Development Act
authorizes construction of an Appalachian Development
Highway System including local access roads. This
System is designed to improve the accessibility of Ap­
palachia; to reduce highway transportation costs to and
within Appalachia; to provide the highway transportation
facilities necessary to accelerate the overall development
of Appalachia. The program is funded through contract
authority available in the fiscal year preceding the year of
authority. The budget for 1974 provides $155 million to
fully liquidate obligations through that period. Contract
authority available in 1974 will be allotted for later obliga­
tion of up to $160 million, limited primarily to highpriority development highway projects.
The status of the System of roads including mileage
prefinanced by the State follows:

thorizes a program for the sealing and filling of voids in
abandoned coal mines, the planning and execution of
projects for the extinguishment and control of under­
ground and outcrop mine fires, and the reclamation and
rehabilitation of strip and surface mine areas, including
waste banks, on public land in those areas where the
potential for economic growth exists in Appalachia. States
or local sponsors must bear 2 5 % of project cost. Approved
projects on a cumulative basis are:

The 1974 program will be directed to surface restoration
projects primarily in the Agnes disaster area.
4. Vocational education facilities .— Grants are made to

States and local districts within the Appalachian region
for the construction and equipment of vocational educa­
tion facilities in Appalachia, and in limited cases for
operation and demonstrations in Appalachia. Vocational
education facilities are key elements for the training and
upgrading of potential and existing labor force entrants
in skills required in commercial and other vocations.
Grants are administered through the Office of Education.
Vocational education projects approved, including those
aided by supplementary grants, are as follows:

Research and local development district program.—
Appalachian planning assistance is provided through
grants to multicounty local development districts and for
research and demonstration projects. Grants are made for
up to 75% of the administrative expenses of local develop­
ment districts. Other planning and technical assistance is
provided for (a) programs which improve the base for
economic growth, (b) programs which will attract indus­
trial development within the region, (c) programs which
improve the health, education, and skills of people, and
(d) projects which conserve, maintain, or improve
natural resources.

This program provides for several ways of assisting the
region in obtaining a larger share of housing for low- or
moderate-income families. The Commission is authorized
to make technical assistance grants for the organization of
State housing corporations and local nonprofit groups to
encourage such housing construction.
This program also provided authority to make loans for
up to 80% of the preliminary cost of planning housing
projects and obtaining federally insured mortgages.
Eligible loan costs include preliminary site engineering and
architectural fees, site options, and construction loan fees
and discounts.
Under the 1971 amendments to the act, grants may be
made for site development costs and offsite improvements
such as sewer and water line extensions where necessary
for economic feasibility of the housing project. Grants for
such purposes may not exceed 10% of the project cost.
Funds are transferred from the “Appalachian regional
development” appropriations to this revolving fund for

the stabilization program results in such profits. Like the
Pay Board, the Price Commission has the authority to
recommend that sanctions be invoked if voluntary ad­
herence to the guidelines and standards issued by the
Commission cannot be obtained.

Rent Advisory Board.— The Board provides advice
concerning special considerations involved in the stabili­
zation of rents. It also assists the Price Commission in the
performance of its functions by making technical analyses
of specific matters referred to it by the Commission.
Program extension.— Legislation is being proposed to
extend the life of this program beyond April 30, 1973, when
the Economic Stabilization Act Amendments of 1971
(Public Law 92-210) expire. An estimate of funds required
under such new legislation is included in the legislative

The activities of the Cost of Living Council, the Pay
Board, the Price Commission, and other related activities
of the economic stabilization program are included under
this heading.
1. Cost o j Living Council.— The Council has the respon­
sibility for establishing broad stabilization goals, pro­
viding overall coordination and administrative guidance
of the economic stabilization program, setting program
direction to assure achievement of the objectives, and
directing the program’s compliance activities.
2. P ay Board.— The Board formulates standards for
wage adjustments to achieve the goals and objectives of
the program. The specific objective of the Pay Board is
to limit pay adjustments to an annual aggregate increase
of 5.5% . The 5.5% general wage and salary standard is
based on an expected 3% rise in productivity, plus an
allowance of 2.5% for normal cost-of-living increases. The
Board is empowered to analyze and review the economic
provisions of a contract to see that they are consistent
with wage guidelines. The Board has the power to deal
with disputes over wages and can, where appropriate,
request assistance from the Federal Mediation and Con­
ciliation Service.
3. Price Commission.— The Commission is charged with
the development of explicit rules governing price adjust­
ments. The specific goal of the Price Commission is to
limit the average price increase of controlled items to an

Under the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended,
designated agencies are authorized with Presidential ap­
proval to incur obligations and make expenditures to
expand production of critical materials for programs
certified as essential to the national defense by the Office
of Emergency Preparedness. The program is conducted
primarily through a revolving fund financed by borrow­
ing from the Treasury. The amount borrowed may not
exceed $2.1 billion outstanding at any one time.
Allocations of borrowing authority by the Office of
Emergency Preparedness and net borrowing from the
U.S. Treasury as of June 30, 1972, were as follows (in
thousands of dollars) :

Financial condition oj the fu n d .— Losses under these pro­
grams are reflected as $1,643 million as of June 30, 1972,
with inventory of metals and minerals carried at acquisi­
tion cost of approximately $656 million. Using inventory
market price of $366 million, the deficit would amount to
about $1,933 million. Interest expense on borrowing from
Treasury amounts to approximately $125 million for 1973
and for 1974.
Legislation will be submitted to change the present
financing method and substitute new arrangements as
required. Passage of this legislation will amend title III
of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended, to
prohibit the financing of any new contracts for expansion
of resources under the provisions of section 304; to
terminate interest payments on notes issued pursuant to
that section; to provide for the orderly retirement of those
notes; and to provide for the ultimate cancellation of any
remaining borrowing authority under section 304.
The budget schedules to reflect the proposed legislation
are shown on page 108.

Under this program, grants of defense articles and
services are made to assist other countries in improving
their defensive capabilities. As the security of the free
world is strengthened and other nations are increasingly
able to rely on their own resources, particularly man­
power, the need for U.S. forces abroad should decline and
the likelihood of having to commit U.S. ground combat
forces in the future should decrease.
The major portion of the military items furnished under
this program is produced in the United States. Orders are
placed through the U.S. military services, which are
reimbursed from this account when the items are deliv­
ered. Materiel already on hand, but excess to the needs
of U.S. forces, is supplied to friendly governments at no
charge to the military assistance appropriation except
for the costs of rehabilitation and transportation.
The administrative costs related to foreign military
sales are included in this account.

This appropriation provides funds to finance credit
sales of defense articles and services to foreign countries
and international organizations. Two types of financing
arrangements are used: (1) direct U.S. Government
credit, and (2) commercial credit guaranteed by the
Government. The U.S. Government also has the authority
to sell promissory notes it holds in the commercial markets.
An appropriation of $525 million is requested for 1974
to finance a credit sales program of $760 million. Of the

This account was created to fund credit sales to Israel
authorized by section 501 of the Defense Procurement
Act of 1970. Since the Foreign Military Sales Act had not
yet been enacted and credits for Israel were urgently re­
quired, Congress enacted the separate authorization.
Funds for Israel in 1972, 1973, and 1974 are included in
the regular foreign military credit sales account.
The administrative expenses related to this program are

Foreign policy of the United States emphasizes building
the capacity of friendly nations to bear the burden of
their own defense requirements. The economies of these
nations are often initially not able to fully support these
burdens from their own resources. Supporting assistance
provides commodities, budget support, and technical
assistance which assist these governments in maintaining
economic and political stability and providing essential
services through the transitional period of extraordinary
demands. The bulk of supporting assistance funds goes
to the friendly governments of Southeast Asia.

eign Assistance Act of 1967. The foreign military sales
fund terminated as of the same date and the assets were
transferred to this account to be available solely for the
purpose of discharging outstanding liabilities and obliga­

prior to June 30, 1968. Any funds in this account in excess
of the aggregate amount of such liabilities and obligations
are transferred to the general fund of the Treasury.

As authorized by sections 21 and 22 of the Foreign
Military Sales Act of 1968, as amended, this trust fund is
used to facilitate cash sales of defense articles and services.
The purpose of the trust fund, which is strictly a cash
account, is to enable foreign governments to take ad­
vantage of savings which result from procurement through
U.S. Government channels. In dollar volume, the major
portion of this program consists of sales to European and
other developed countries of the free world.
Defense articles from Department of Defense stocks
are sold for U.S. dollars to eligible countries and inter­
national organizations if they agree to pay in advance or,
as authorized by the President, within 120 days after
delivery.
Defense articles and defense services may also be
procured by the Department of Defense for foreign pur­
chasers if the purchasers agree to pay the full amount of
the procurement contract, which assures the Government
against any loss on the contract. The Department of
Defense may accept a dependable undertaking under
which the purchaser agrees to pay within 120 days after
delivery, in which case Defense appropriations are used
to meet contract payments and are subsequently re­
imbursed with payments received from the purchasers.

The United States along with many other countries
provides funds to promote international monetary stability
through the International Monetary Fund and to finance
development lending and technical assistance through the
international development banks.
Each of the banks is an international organization,
corporate in form, whose capital stock is owned by its
member governments. The banks make ordinary capital
loans to member countries with funds generated from
members’ purchases of paid-in-capital stock and with

FU ND S APPROPRIATED TO TH E PR E SIDE N T

funds borrowed on world capital markets. The borrowings
are backed by members’ subscriptions of callable capital,
which would be drawn on for cash disbursements only in
the unlikely event that funds would be required to meet an
institution’s obligations. Concessional financing, i.e., loans
from special funds, is provided only from the paid-in
subscriptions of members made specifically for this pur­
pose.
Ordinary capital loans have long term maturities and
near-market interest rates. Special fund loans (including
all International Development Association credits) have
longer maturities and low, sometimes even nominal,
interest rates. In general, they are provided to those de­
veloping countries with the lowest incomes and for ac­
tivities which, while necessary to the country’s develop­
ment, may not always directly produce an income flow.
U.S. commitments to the institutions take several
forms. Callable capital is formally subscribed but is not
obligated. Contributions to special funds are obligated
through letters of credit which are drawn on only when
needed for disbursements on bank loans. A portion of some
paid-in ordinary capital contributions is made in cash
with the remainder under letters of credit to be drawn
according to agreed schedules related to the banks’ operat­
ing requirements.
During the 1972-74 period, the United States, in
addition to making payments to the institutions for regular
subscription increases, is also committing funds for pay­
ments required as a result of the recent official modifica­
tion of the par value of the dollar. The charters establish­
ing the institutions require that members maintain the
value of their contributions in terms of gold. Because the
value of the dollar was reduced in terms of gold, the
United States has incurred obligations to pay up to $1.6
billion in total for maintenance of value (MOV). Author­
izing legislation for these payments was enacted on March
31, 1972, and appropriations were enacted on May 16,
1972 (Public Law 92-301).
The budgetary outlays from the letters of credit issued
to cover MOV obligations are anticipated to be no more
than $372 million and will be spread over a period of years.
The outlays represent MOV payments on U.S. paid-in
capital subscriptions to the institutions. Callable capital
contributions to the institutions are a contingent liability
and the associated MOV obligations of $663 million are not
expected to become budgetary outlays. The MOV obliga­
tions of $541 million to the International Monetary Fund
would also have no budgetary impact.
1. Investment in International Bank fo r Reconstruction
and Development.— This institution, often called the World
Bank, was initiated by the Bretton Woods Conference of
1944, and currently has 122 country members. Total au­
thorized capital stock as of June 30, 1972, was $27 billion,
of which $24.5 billion had been subscribed. Cumulative
loan commitments totaled $18.05 billion.
The Bretton Woods Agreements Act of July 31, 1945,
authorized the United States to accept membership in the
Bank. The U.S. subscription is $6.47 billion, of which the
paid-in portion is $647.3 million. Program costs in 1973 are
made up of the $12.3 million paid-in portion of an increase
in the U.S. subscription to the Bank’s capital plus funds
required for maintenance of value.
2. Investment in International Development Association.—
The International Development Association is affiliated
with the International Bank for Reconstruction and De­
velopment and has substantial^ the same worldwide
membership.

Pursuant to authorisation in Public Law 86-565 (74
Stat. 293), enacted June 30, 1960, the United States joined
the Association in August 1960. The U.S. share of the $2.7
billion in contributions provided by the 19 developed
member countries of the Association prior to the current
capital replenishment was $1.1 billion.
An appropriation of $320 million is being sought for 1974
for the second installment of a U.S. contribution of $960
million to the third replenishment of the Association’s
resources. This replenishment calls for a total of $2.4 billion
to be provided by the Association’s developed member
countries in annual installments over a 3-year period.
Legislation authorizing the U.S. contribution was signed
into law on March 10, 1972. The first installment of $320
million has been paid under the provisions of a continuing
resolution passed by the Congress in October 1972. The
third installment of $320 million will be sought in 1975.
For each installment, additional letters of credit of $27
million will be provided for maintenance of value.
3. Investment in Inter-American Development Bank. The
Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) promotes eco­
nomic development in Latin American and Caribbean
countries through loans and technical assistance. Twentyfour Western Hemisphere republics, including the United
States and Canada, are members of the Bank. Pursuant
to Public Law 86-147 (73 Stat. 229), the United States
joined the Bank in December 1959, and it began opera­
tions in October 1960.
Ordinary capital.— As of June 30, 1972, the total sub­
scribed capital of the IDB was $4,027.8 million, of which
$674.3 million was paid in. The U.S. share was $1,610.3
million, including $250 million paid in. The full amount
requested in 1973 for the final payment of an ordinary
capital increase was not included by the Congress in the
provisions of the continuing resolution for the period
October 15,1972 to February 28,1973 (Public Law 92-571).
The difference of $193.4 million between the amount
requested for 1973 and the amount available under the
continuing resolution, is proposed for appropriation in
1974. If funds ultimately appropriated in 1973 for ordinary
capital are greater than the amount in the continuing
resolution, the 1974 budget request for $693.4 million will
be amended downward by an equivalent amount.
Fund fo r special operations.— Contributions to the
Fund prior to the current replenishment totaled $2,388
million and the United States contributed 75.4%, or $1,800
million. On December 20, 1972, the United States formally
agreed to participate in a $1.5 billion replenishment of
FSO resources and made $275 million available to the Bank
at that time. This action was taken under applicable
authorizing legislation and under authority of the con­
tinuing resolution (Public Law 92-571) as well as an ap­
propriation enacted in May 1971 (Public Law 92-18). An
appropriation of $500 million is being requested in 1974.
4. Investment in Asian Development Bank.— The Asian
Development Bank was established in 1966 to foster eco­
nomic growth in Asia by making loans to the developing
member countries of the region. At present it has 37 mem­
ber countries— 23 regional countries of whom three are
classified as developed (Japan, Australia, and New Zea­
land) and 14 nonregional countries including the United
States, Canada and 12 European countries.
Ordinary capital.— On November 23, 1972, an increase
in the Bank’s authorized capital came into effect when the
required number of stockholders took up their shares of
the capital increase. This action raised the Bank’s total
authorized capital stock from $1.1 billion to $2.7 billion.

Because the United States had not yet taken up its
share of the subscription increase, the action reduced
our proportionate share (currently $200 million) of total
subscribed capital from 19.9% to 9.9% . An appropriation
will be sought in 1974 under proposed authorizing legisla­
tion for a U.S. subscription to the capital increase in order
to maintain the equity position of the United States in
the Bank. As of December 31, 1972, cumulative ordinary
capital commitments by the Bank amounted to $767
million.
Special funds .— As of December 31, 1972, contributions
to the Asian Development Bank’s special funds resources
amounted to $226 million, including transfers from ordi­
nary capital. Total loan commitments as of the same date
from these funds amounted to $202 million. The United
States has not yet made a contribution to the special
funds of the Asian Development Bank, although legisla­
tion authorizing a $100 million U.S. contribution was
passed by the Congress in February 1972 (Public Law
92-245).
The continuing resolution, Public Law 92-571, does not
include the $100 million appropriation requested in 1973
to make this contribution. Therefore, $100 million is pro­
posed for 1974 for this purpose. Should funds ultimately
be appropriated in 1973 for a special fund contribution,
the 1974 request will be amended downward by an equal
amount.

Public Law 87-490, approved June 19, 1962, authorized
an appropriation to remain available until expended, of
$2 billion for U.S. participation in a 10-nation, $6 billion
arrangement providing, under specified conditions, for
loans by the participants to the International Monetar}^
Fund when needed to forestall or cope with an impairment
of the international monetary system. The appropriation
for these arrangements, known as the General Arrange­
ments to Borrow (GAB), was obtained on October 24,
1962.
The GAB has been drawn on by the Fund on six occa­
sions in the total amount of $2,155 million. The United
States has not yet participated in the loans extended
under the GAB because the Fund’s holdings of dollars
have been adequate.
The Executive Directors of the International Monetary
Fund renewed the GAB on October 17, 1969, for a period
of 5 years, beginning October 24, 1970. The U.S. commit­
ment to lend up to $2 billion to the Fund under the GAB
will continue during the renewal period.

I n ter n atio n al

The current dollar value of the U.S. quota in the
International Monetary Fund is $7,274 million, as a
result of an increase of $574 million for maintenance
of value arising from the recent modification of the
value of the dollar in terms of gold. Pursuant to the
Fund’s charter, this modification required U.S. main­
tenance of value payments to the IM F totaling $541
million. Of this amount, $431 million represented U.S.
obligations to maintain the value of its currency sub­
scription to the IM F, which was three-fourths of the
dollar value of the U.S. quota of $6,700 million at the time




of devaluation. A $143 million increase in the dollar value
of the remaining portion of the U.S. quota, representing
our subscription in gold to the IMF, occurred automati­
cally. In addition, payments of $110 million were required
to coyer U.S. maintenance of value obligations on out­
standing drawings from the Fund of $1,284 million. As
monetary transactions, the increase on the current dollar
value of the U.S. quota, and other transactions with the
IM F, represent exchanges of assets and do not result in
budgetary expenditures.

Through 1961, a portion of the mutual security appro­
priation was used to purchase surplus agricultural com­
modities which were then sold to friendly countries for
their currencies. These local currencies accruing from the
sales are used for economic and military activities in
furtherance of objectives of the U.S. foreign assistance
program.

Portions of foreign currencies received from the sale
of agricultural commodities under Public Law 480 are
allocated to the foreign economic assistance program to
meet emergency or extraordinary relief requirements and
to finance the purchase of goods and services for other
friendly countries.

FU N D S APPROPRIATED TO TH E P R E SID E N T

The Alliance for Progress was established in 1961 as a
cooperative effort of the United States and Latin American
countries to promote the economic and social development
of Latin America. The United States is helping in these
efforts by providing economic and technical aid. The Latin
American countries, in addition to providing a steadily
increasing share of their own resources to development, are
carrying out substantial reform programs. The United
States assists development activities, particularly in
agriculture, education, health, and economic integration.
In order to stimulate economic activity in the region,
Alliance loan dollars, previously restricted to U.S. procure­
ment, have been made eligible for procurement of goods
and services throughout Latin America. Total Alliance for
Progress appropriations of $240,100,000 million are pro­
posed for 1974. Of this amount $150,000,000 million is
proposed for development loans to support private
industry, agriculture, education, and regional integration.

Development loans are made to friendly developing
countries in order to promote their economic development.
These loans are repayable in U.S. dollars at an interest
rate of not less than 3% per annum. Loan repayments are
to begin not later than 10 years following the date on
which the funds are lent. During the initial 10-year period
the rates of interest are not to be lower than 2% per annum.
Budget authority of $201.4 million is proposed for 1974.
These loans are used to finance the importation of
normally scarce capital, equipment or agricultural inputs
such as seeds and fertilizer. Before a loan is made, the
Agency for International Development must take into
account (1) whether financing could be obtained in whole
or in part from other free world sources on reasonable terms
including private sources within the United States, (2)




the economic and technical soundness of the activity to be
financed, including the capacity of the recipient country
to repay the loan, (3) whether the activity gives reasonable
promise of contributing to the development of economic
resources or to the increase of productive capacities, (4)
the consistency of the activity with, and its relationship
to, other development activities being undertaken or
planned, and its contribution to realistic long-range ob­
jectives, (5) the extent to which the recipient country is
demonstrating its determination to take effective self-help
measures, and (6) possible effects upon the economy of the
United States. Additional loan criteria and standards are
established by an interagency development loan committee
chaired by the Administrator of the Agency for Interna­
tional Development.

The Development loan fund was established as a
corporation by the Mutual Security Act of 1958 to
extend loans, credits, and guaranties to American or
foreign individuals, businesses, financial institutions, or
foreign governments in order to provide capital for
projects and programs contributing to the economic
growth of friendly developing countries.
Under the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, the Develop­
ment Loan Fund Corporation was abolished and its
functions were transferred, effective November 3, 1961,
to the Agency for International Development. Sub­
sequent to that date, the fund has remained open for
the purpose of liquidating outstanding obligations. As
of June 30, 1972, the undisbursed loan agreements
amounted to $7 million. It is estimated that this balance
will decrease to $0.8 million in 1973 and be fully disbursed
in 1974.
Loan repayments and interest earned totaled $126.8
million in 1972 and are expected to total $128.6 million
in 1973 and $123.2 million in 1974.

The Housing guaranty fund includes the Latin American
housing guaranty program and Worldwide housing guar­
anty program.
The purpose of the Latin American housing guaranty
program is to assist in the development in the American
Republics of self-liquidating housing projects, the develop­
ment of institutions engaged in Alliance for Progress
programs, including cooperatives, free labor unions,
savings and loan-type institutions, and other private
enterprise programs in Latin America engaged directly or
indirectly in the financing of home mortgages, the con­
struction of homes for lower income persons and families,
the increased mobilization of savings, and the improve­
ment of housing conditions in Latin America.
The purpose of the Worldwide housing guaranty pro­
gram is to facilitate and increase the participation of
private enterprise in furthering the development of the
economic resources and productive capacities of less
developed friendly countries and areas, and to promote
the development of thrift and credit institutions engaged
in programs of mobilizing local savings for financing the
construction of self-liquidating housing projects and
related community facilities.
The Foreign Assistance Act of 1969 continued available
the $550 million issuing authority for the Latin American
housing guarant}^ program. The total face amount of
guaranties that may be outstanding at any one time under
the Worldwide housing program was limited to $130
million, not including the $30.1 million authorized and
issued under predecessor programs. $5 million of the $30.1
million previously authorized by Congress for the World­
wide program cannot be utilized since the prior authority
did not permit the guaranty of interest. In 1972 Congress
increased Worldwide housing authority by $75 million.

Program projections indicate that the total amount
available for authorizations for the guaranty of invest­
ments in both the Latin American and Worldwide pro­
grams will be authorized or in process during 1973. For
1974 projected increases in statutory authorizations for
Latin American and Worldwide housing programs are as
follows:
(a) Latin American housing.— An increase of $44.9
million, increasing the present ceiling from $550 million
to $594.9 million.
(b) Worldwide housing.— An increase of $275 million,
increasing the proposed 1973 and 1974 ceiling of $230.1
million to $505.1 million.
Consistent with the intent of Congress that the housing
programs be totally self-supporting, the costs of ad­
ministration, program evaluation and development, and
claims investigations are paid from fee income.

The Overseas Private Investment Corporation was es­
tablished by the Foreign Assistance Act of 1969 to facilitate
and encourage U.S. long-term private investment in the
developing countries. The Corporation’s major activities
include investment insurance and guaranties, loans and
investment promotion.
The Corporation’s income in 1974 is estimated to be
$40.7 million, less deductions of $5.4 million for adminis­
trative and preinvestment assistance expenses; $12 million,

which would be charged to reserves, has been provided
for claims. No provision has been made for extraordinary
claims payments that may be required as a result of events
in Chile.
An appropriation of $72.5 million in 1974 is requested
to increase the insurance reserve to a more adequate level,
given the size of the outstanding portfolio and an in­
crease in events leading to insurance claims. While it is
the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government and not
the ready cash reserves which secures the Corporation’s
outstanding insurance contracts, an adequate cash re­
serve is necessary to enable the Corporation to pay off
its insurance claims promptly.
As a result of expropriatory actions by the Government
of Chile, it may become necessary at a subsequent date to
seek additional funds for the Corporation.
The legislation establishing the Corporation authorizes
the appropriation of such amounts as may be necessary
from time to time to replenish the insurance reserve or
to discharge the Corporation’s liabilities.

4. Community economic development.— The community
economic development program is directed toward pro­
viding significant economic and community development
impact in rural and urban areas having concentrations of
low-income persons. These efforts have the same basic
objectives as programs funded through the Office of Minor­
ity Business Enterprise (OMBE). The 1974 request for
OMBE includes $39.3 million to fund grantees currently
funded under this activity and related research projects
previously funded under the research and development
activity. This consolidation of effort will increase the
effectiveness of Federal programs designed to bring minor­
ity entrepreneurs into the mainstream of ecomonic life.
The requested funding will enable a concentration of
funding on the more successful community development
models to test their ability to accelerate the rate at which
impact can be created; and will enable continued research
and development.
5. Migrants and seasonal farmworkers.— Under the
special migrant program, over 327,000 farmworkers and
family members will participate in projects currently
administered through 70 grantees in 35 States. Major
types of local activities include: Economic upgrading,
farmworker housing, high school equivalency programs,
and day care. Thirteen new high school equivalency pro­
grams will be developed in 1974 to serve school dropouts
from poor families drawing their income from seasonal
agricultural labor.
This program will be delegated to Department of
Labor and $40 million is included in that 1974 request to
fund this program and to continue the food programs for
migrants previously funded through the emergency food
and medical services program.
6. Legal services program.— The 1974 request for this
program is for appropriation to H EW for payment to the
proposed Legal Services Corporation.
7. General support.— This activity provides supportive
administration for the OEO programs described above.
Included in the 1974 request for the General Services
Administration in $33 million to insure the orderly phase­
out of outstanding grants and contracts of discontinued
activities.

Legislation is being proposed to extend the economic
stabilization program beyond April 30, 1973, when the
current Economic Stabilization Act Amendments of
1971 expire. While the details of the extended program
will be laid out in the proposed bill, the basic authority
of the President to maintain wage and price controls in
all important sectors of the economy, including food,
would be retained. Experience under the current act
demonstrates the program's effectiveness in reducing the
rate of inflation in the economy. If it proves possible to
terminate the extended program prior to the expiration of
proposed legislation, any funds appropriated in excess of
those required would revert to the Treasury.

The Office of Management Services (OMS) provides
consolidated and centralized management support services
to several agencies and offices of the Department. It was
established by Secretary’s Memorandum No. 1529, dated
January 29, 1963, to provide greater economy and effec­
tiveness in the rendering of management service and advice
through improved utilization of manpower and manage­
ment techniques, increased specialization of professional
skills, and more extensive use of timesaving equipment.
The consolidated management support functions in­
clude budget and finance, personnel and related programs,
administrative services, and information work. These
functions are financed by direct appropriation to OMS,
except for activity performed for others on a reimbursable
or advance payment basis ; OMS is reimbursed for manage­
ment support of these activities.
The organizational structure of OMS is based upon
these functions with operating divisions providing the
services for the following agencies and offices: Office of
the Secretary, Office of Budget and Finance, Office of
Administrative Law Judges, Judicial Officer, Office of In­
formation Systems, Office of Information, Office of Per­
sonnel, Office of Plant and Operations, Office of the In­
spector General, Office of the General Counsel, Office of
Management Services, Cooperative State Research Serv­
ice, National Agricultural Library, Statistical Reporting
Service, Economic Research Service, Commodity Ex­

The Service conducts basic and applied research in the
fields of livestock, plant sciences, entomology, soil and
water conservation, agricultural engineering, utilization
and development, nutrition and consumer use, marketing,
and on the development of methods to eradicate narcoticproducing plants.
The decrease requested for 1974 reflects the effects of
realigning the Agency’s research efforts to: (1) Terminate
projects reaching completion or of lower priority in relation
to the needs of American agriculture; (2) consolidate
complementary lines of work into existing centers for
research; and (3) transfer scientists into existing research
centers to provide a broader nucleus of scientific disciplines
to meet current needs for broad-based interdisciplinary
research.
The activities financed from this appropriation are
described below.
1. Research.— (a) Farm research.— Improved breeding,
feeding, and management practices, including manage­
ment of animal wastes, are developed for farm livestock,
poultry, and domestic fur animals. Practical methods are
sought for control of diseases, parasites, and insect pests
affecting them and to protect them from chemical toxicity
and other hazards.
Investigations are conducted to improve varieties of
food, feed, fiber, and other plants, and to develop new
crops; to improve crop-production practices, including
methods to control plant diseases, nematodes, and weeds,
and reduce cost of production; and to develop safe chem­
ical, biological, and other methods for control of harmful
pests affecting farm production.
Investigations are conducted to improve the manage­
ment of natural resources, including investigations to im­
prove soil and water management (including salinity and
saline soils), irrigation, and conservation practices; to
study hydrologie problems of agricultural watersheds; to

AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH SERVICE— Continued
FEDERAL FUNDS— Continued

D E P A R T M E N T OF A G R IC U L T U R E

determine the relation of soil ,types and water to plant,
animal, and human nutrition; and to apply engineering
principles to improve efficiency and reduce costs of agri­
cultural production.
The research is aimed at the profitable production of an
adequate supply of food, feed, fiber, and other agricultural
products of desired quality at minimum costs. Increased
attention has been given to studies on protection of plants,
animals, and natural resources from harmful effects of
soil, water, and air pollutants. Research also concerns the
application of remote sensing techniques in meeting
agricultural problems.
(b) Utilization research and development.— Chemical,
physical, and biological research is conducted to develop
increased industrial uses of farm products, and new and
improved foods, feeds, and fabrics; and to develop im­
proved methods for processing agricultural commodities.
The research aim is to expand the demand for farm
products by developing new and improved products and
economical processes tailored to the requirements of the
domestic and foreign markets. The research conducted
includes studies to protect food and feed products from
harmful microbial organisms and naturally occurring
toxins and studies of health-related problems of tobacco.
Effort is also being given to the processing of agricultural
commodities to minimize waste formation and to utilize
waste products to avoid pollution.
(c) Nutrition and consumer use research.— Studies are
made of human nutritional requirements, composition
and nutritive value of foods, and consumer and food
economics. The research aim is to determine nutrient
requirements and how foods can supply these to best
assure nutritional well-being of people throughout their
lifespan; to provide up-to-date information about food
consumption and nutrition of the population; and to
develop improved procedures for household preparation,
care, and preservation of foods which will preserve their
nutritional, sanitary, and wholesome quality.
(d) Marketing research.— Practical answers to reduce
costs and maintain product quality in moving products
from farm to consumer are sought through research. For
farm products as they pass through marketing channels,
efforts are made to develop safe methods to protect
against insect attack, find objective methods to deter­
mine quality, reduce losses from waste and spoilage, and
improve efficiency in physical handling and transporta­
tion. The work includes research at each stage of market­
ing, such as assembly points and storage facilities, and of
transportation at terminal or central markets, and at
wholesale and retail markets. Research is also concerned
with mycotoxins in agricultural products in relation to
off-farm handling, conditioning, and storage.
(e) Research and development on the eradication of nar­
cotic-producing plants.— Research under this activity was
started in 1972 as outlined under the Omnibus Drug Con­
trol Message of June 17, 1971. The research conducted
under this activity is directed toward the development of
technology for the detection and destruction of illicit
growth of narcotic-producing plants without adverse
ecological effects. The development of this eradication
technology is carried out in cooperation with research
institutions in foreign countries.
(f) Coordination of departmental and interdepartmental
activities related to pests and their control.— The 1974
estimates provide for the availability of $158 thousand for
the use by the Secretary to meet emergency situations
relating to the safe use of pesticides. The project provided




for coordination with the Department of Health, Educa­
tion, and Welfare, Department of the Interior, Environ­
mental Protection Agency, and other agencies of the
Federal Government in development of measures to pro­
tect the public health, producers, and resources.
(g) Construction of facilities.— The 1974 estimates pro­
vide for a decrease of $3,460 thousand to eliminate non­
recurring amounts provided for planning and construc­
tion of facilities in 1973.
(h) Contingencies.— Beginning in 1962, $1 million was
provided to meet urgent needs that develop unexpectedly
during the year when such needs cannot be met by
redirection of resources from other projects.
(i) Special improvements, National Arboretum.— The
1974 program provides for a nonrecurring increase of
$1,130 thousand to remain available until expended for
special bicentennial improvements at the National
Arboretum. The proposed increase would provide for
necessary road changes, planting, and other improve­
ments at the National Arboretum as part of the bicen­
tennial plans for the Washington area.
2.
Plant and animal disease and pest control.— The
regulatory and control activities previously carried out
under this subappropriation item by the Agricultural
Research Service were transferred to the Animal and
Plant Health Service which was established effective
October 31, 1971, pursuant to authority of Reorganization
Plan No. 2 of 1953. Narrative statements describing the
programs and performance of these activities are in­
cluded in the Budget appendix under Animal and Plant

Assistance Act of 1954, as amended. Research is carried
on through agreements negotiated with research institu­
tions and organizations in foreign countries. The research
must be of importance to American agriculture. It serves
to preserve and expand existing markets and develop new
ones for agricultural commodities. It provides for research
supplementary to domestic programs on problems of
farm, marketing, utilization, agricultural economics and
human nutrition, and makes possible the conduct of re­
search on exotic insect pests and diseases of plants and
animals which could not be done in the United States.
Specialized projects provide for the translation and
dissemination of foreign language scientific publications.
Total estimated cost in U.S. dollars (charged to regular
appropriations) for program direction and supervision of
projects in 1974 is $607 thousand.
The 1974 budget estimate for the Forest Service pro­
vides $1 million for a special foreign currency program
on forestry projects; therefore, no new forestry research
projects will be initiated by the Agricultural Research
Service in 1974. To avoid establishing a separate new
administration for this research in the Forest Service, the
Agricultural Research Service will continue to cover the
overseas administrative costs of the forestry research
program.

The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service was
established on April 2, 1972, pursuant to the authority of
the Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1953. The programs of
the Service were formerly performed by the Animal and
Plant Health Service and the Consumer and Marketing
Service.
The major objectives of the Service are to insure that
the meat and poultry products available to consumers are
wholesome in every respect and labeled according to law
and to protect the animal and plant resources of the Na­
tion from destructive pests and diseases. These objectives
are accomplished through the workings of our meat and
poultry inspection program and through a series of plant
and animal disease and pest control programs.

programs prior to October 31, 1971, are included in the
budget appendix under Agricultural Research Service.
Costs, financing and outlays relating to obligations in­
curred under the meat and poultry inspection program
prior to April 2, 1972, are included in the budget appendix
under Agricultural Marketing Service. The level of ac­
tivity perfor|ned prior to these dates is included in the
data below for comparative purposes.
1. Meat and poultry inspection.— Federal meat inspec­
tion is required for all meat and meat products moving in
interstate and foreign commerce to insure a clean and
wholesome meat supply for human consumption, free from
adulteration, and truthfully labeled. All meat and meat
products moving in intrastate commerce must be federally
inspected or inspected by States to standards at least
equal to the Federal. The work includes inspection of
animals, carcasses, meat, and meat-food products at
various stages of handling and processing.

Measures are enforced to insure informative labeling,
and that meats imported or exported are inspected. The
Federal program also provides financial and technical
assistance to States for improving the quality of their
inspection programs. Inspection of poultry meat and
poultry meat products for wholesomeness is provided
pursuant to the Poultry Products Inspection Act of 1957,
as amended. All poultry processed in plants shipping in
interstate or foreign commerce is required to be inspected
both before and after slaughter. Birds found to be unfit for
human consumption are condemned and removed from
channels of trade. The Federal program also provides
financial and technical assistance to States for improving
the quality of their inspection programs.
The increases in the 1974 estimates provide for inspec­
tion of additional plants and assumption of intrastate in­
spection responsibilities from States unable to maintain
an inspection system at least equal to the Federal.
The volume of inspections and examinations is indicated
by examples given in the following tables :

2. Plant disease and pest control.— Programs are designed
to keep out of this country by inspection at ports of entry
those harmful insects, plant diseases, nematodes, and
other pests that cause great damage to agriculture in
other countries. Working with the States, programs are
conducted to eradicate or prevent spread of crop pests
that become established in this country. Assistance is
given to the States to suppress incipient and emergency
outbreaks of crop pests when and where they occur. The




1974 estimates propose decreases for the gypsy moth, fire
ant, European chafer, soybean cyst nematode, sweetpotato
weevil and phony peach and peach mosaic programs.
The level of activities for plant pest control is shown by
the selected examples that follow:

Animal disease and pest control.— Programs are con­
ducted to keep communicable diseases of foreign origin
from entering this country and to prevent the spread of
disease through interstate shipments of livestock or dis­
tribution of impure or impotent veterinary biologies.
Other programs are directed at the control and eradication
of livestock diseases. The animal welfare program is con­
cerned with the humane care and handling of approxi­
mately 40 million warm-blooded animals. The 1974
estimates propose increases for a cooperative screw-worm
eradication program in Mexico and a Newcastle disease
surveillance program. The estimates also propose a de­
crease in the salmonella program. Increases are also in­
cluded for repayments to Commodity Credit Corporation
for advances made for exotic Newcastle disease and hog
cholera emergencies.
The level of activities for the major control programs on
animal diseases and pests is as follows:

Public Law 88-592, approved September 12, 1964?
authorized the sale of the Animal Quarantine Station, at
Clifton, N.J., to the city of Clifton, and application of the
proceeds of sale to the planning and construction costs
of a new station in the New York-New Jersey port and
airport area. A sales contract between the Department and
the city of Clifton was executed on December 16, 1966, at
the appraised value of $527 thousand. Of that amount,
$100 thousand was paid to the Department upon execu­
tion of the contract. An additional $100 thousand will be
paid to the Department upon award of an architectengineering contract for development of design and
construction plans, and the balance will be paid upon
publication of bids for construction of the new quarantine
station. A total of $6 thousand has been spent by the
Department on survey and related costs associated with
obtaining a new site. An additional $1.5 million was
provided in 1970 under the sub-appropriation Plant and
animal disease and pest control, now redesignated Animal
and Plant Health Inspection Service, for the remainder of
the total cost of $2,027 thousand for the new station. The
Department has recently been informed by the General
Services Administration that the proposed site on Floyd
Bennett Field is not available. The Department is pres­
ently investigating other possible sites.

The Service administers funds for payments and grants
to State agricultural experiment stations and other eligible
institutions for the support of research in agriculture, the
rural home, the rural community, and forestry. This ad­
ministration involves supervision of the funds, and close
advisory relations with the State agricultural experiment
stations, schools of forestry, and other institutions eligible
to receive funds. The Service participates in planning and
coordination of research programs among the States and
between the States and the Department.
1.
Payments to agricultural experiment stations under the
Hatch A ct.— Grants under the Hatch Act are allocated to
agricultural experiment stations of the land-grant colleges
in the 50 States, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin
Islands, for agricultural research including investigations
and experiments to promote a permanent and efficient
agricultural industry and improvements in the rural home
and rural community. In addition, funds are provided to
cover the cost of penalty mailings for State agricultural

experiment station directors. A reduction in Hatch Act
payments is requested in 1974 as part of a departmental
reorientation of research priorities. An increase in penalty
mail is requested to meet increased postal costs.
2. Grants fo r cooperative forestry research.— These grants
are allocated to land-grant colleges or agricultural experi­
ment stations in the 50 States, Puerto Rico, Guam, and
the Virgin Islands, and other State-supported colleges and
universities offering graduate training in the sciences basic
to forestry and having a forestry school. The act requires
that the Federal funds paid to each institution be matched
by funds from non-Federal sources for forestry research.
In 1974, a reduction in funds is requested as part of a de­
partmental reorientation of research priorities.
3. Contracts and grants fo r scientific research.— These
funds are for the support of grants on specific research
problems at nonprofit institutions of higher education or
nonprofit organizations whose primary purpose is the con­
duct of such research. Every competitive research pro­
posal selected for funding must be evaluated and classified
as outstanding and appropriate to the needs of the
designated problem area. A decrease is requested in
special grant funds to meet a proportional decrease in
research. Funds will be utilized to support research in
rural development. This is a problem of joint concern to
the USDA and the States. The balance of the special
grant funds is earmarked for the land-grant colleges of
1890 and Tuskegee Institute.
5. Rural development research.— This covers the alloca­
tion of funds under section 502(b) of the Rural Develop­
ment Act of 1972 to conduct pilot research programs in
support of the development of rural areas.
6. Federal administration.— A coordinating and review
staff is maintained to examine research projects and assist
State institutions and Federal agencies.
7. Miscellaneous services to other accounts.— These funds
are used to provide technical assistance in administration
of various agricultural experiment stations.
8. Agency fo r International Development.— These funds
are used for Cooperative State Research Service personnel
to train foreign participants in this country.
9. Current research information system.— These reim­
bursable funds from other agencies of the Department are
used to operate the current research information system.
This system provides information on research projects,
status of the research and fund resources for research pro­
grams of the State agricultural experiment stations and
other institutions.

compared with 1974 is as follows (in thousands of dollars) :

The primary function of the nationwide system of
cooperative extension work is out-of-school applied educa­
tion in agriculture, home economics, community develop­
ment, 4 -H youth programs, and related subjects. This
educational work takes research results, technological
advancements, and program facts of the Department
of Agriculture, the State agricultural colleges and experi­
ment stations, and incorporates them into a program for
action. Cooperative Extension Service interprets, dis­
seminates, and encourages practical use of knowledge. It
transmits information from researchers to people.

The Service administers the Department’s programs
of crop and livestock estimates and statistical research
and service. Statistical and economic data developed by
the Service on food and agriculture are essential to
farmers, processors, and handlers in making production
and marketing decisions. It also helps legislators, admin­
istrators, and others concerned with developing and
administering agricultural programs. Further, data pro­
vided by the Service are basic to economic research and
analysis and other agricultural research programs.
1. Crop and livestock estimates.— The Service provides
the official national estimates of acreage, yield, and
production of crops; stocks and value of farm commodities;
and numbers and inventory value of livestock items.
Data on approximately 150 crops and livestock products
are covered in some 550 reports issued each year. Data
collected and published on prices paid and received by
farmers are basic to computation of parity prices.
The work of the Service is conducted through 44
State offices serving the 50 States; most of these offices
are operated as joint State and Federal services. Coopera­
tive arrangements with State agencies provide much
additional State and county data; Federal funds are not
available for collection and publication of these data.
During 1972, cooperating States expended an estimated
$3.9 million of their own funds on such associated State
programs.
A comparison of activities in 1971 and 1972, including
work performed under cooperative arrangements, follows:

2. Statistical research and service.— This work includes
review of all statistical forms, survey plans, and reporting
and recordkeeping requirements originating in the De­
partment which require Office of Management and Budget
approval; liaison within the Department and with other
agencies for coordination of statistics; research on and
development of sampling, forecasting, and other basic
statistical techniques and methods to improve the crop
and livestock estimates of the Department; provision of
technical consulting services on new or improved statistical
techniques to other agencies of the Department; use of
and consultation on automatic data processing, to develop
and adapt this technology to the improvement of the
accuracy and timeliness of crop and livestock estimates;
and conduct of special surveys relating to the marketing
of agricultural products. A comparison of SRS activities

D E P A R T M E N T OF A G R IC U L T U R E

1. Farm economics research consists of a nationwide
program of research dealing with the economic problems
of agricultural production and resource use. Farm produc­
tion economics research includes analyses of farm produc­
tion costs and efficiency, use of capital, labor, and other
resources in agriculture, profitable adjustments in farming,
and financial problems of farmers. Natural resource eco­
nomics includes studies of the use and management of
land and water resources, including the quality of these
resources, resource institutions, and watershed and river
basin development problems. Economic development re­
search includes a broad program of economic studies on
development of rural areas, employment opportunities for
farm and other rural people, and availability and factors
affecting the availability of public and private facilities
and services necessary to improve the quality of rural life,
including local governments and their organization.
2. Marketing economics research includes economic anal­
yses and research relating to the marketing of agricultural
commodities, the organizational structure, practices, and
performance of commodity markets from the farm to the
consumer, costs and margins involved in the marketing of
agricultural products, farmer’s bargaining power, the eco­
nomics of product quality and grade, market potentials,
distribution and merchandising of agricultural products,
and the economics of transportation.
The increase requested in fiscal year 1974 will be used
to improve the estimates of marketing margins.
3. Domestic and foreign economic analysis.— Domestic
economic analysis consists of economic and statistical
research on agricultural prices, farm income, commodity
outlook and situation, supply and consumption of farm
products, and agricultural history. Foreign economic
analysis includes: Studies of supply and demand and
trade in farm products in foreign countries and their
effect on prospects for U.S. exports; analysis of farm export
programs, progress in economic development and its
relationship to sales of farm products, assembly and
analysis of agricultural trade statistics; and analysis of
international financial monetary programs and policies as
they effect the competitive position of U.S. farm products.
The increase requested in fiscal year 1974 will be used to
improve estimates of farm income and related statistical
series.
The Service functions through a central office in Wash­
ington, D.C., and a small field staff at each of 56 locations,
principally the land grant colleges and universities
throughout the United States. Much of the research is
carried on in cooperation with State agricultural experi­
ment stations.

The program is aimed at assuring fair play in the
marketing of livestock, meat, and poultry. Its principal
purpose is to maintain effective competition for livestock,
meats, and poultry, so as to bring to farmers and ranchers
the true market value of their livestock and poultry.
Members of the livestock, poultry, and meat industries
are also protected against unfair business practices in the
marketing of meats and poultry, and from restrictions on
competition which could unduly increase meat and poultry
prices.
No increase is requested for fiscal year 1974.
The volume of work performed is indicated by the fol­
lowing examples :

The Foreign Agricultural Service helps American
agriculture to maintain and expand foreign markets for
its products and reports foreign developments as a guide
to American agricultural production, policies, and programs.
(A) The Service helps to develop foreign markets for
U.S. farm products through effective market promotion
under special export programs and through continuous
efforts to remove international trade barriers that inhibit
export sales.
(B) The Service maintains a worldwide agricultural
intelligence and reporting service that enables American
agriculture to carry out its production, policies, and
programs in the context of world developments. Pertinent
agricultural and economic data of foreign production and
markets, and information on foreign agricultural policies
are continuously analyzed and reported.
1. International trade.— The Service directs and coordi­
nates Department responsibilities in international trade
agreement programs and negotiations, under the authority
of the Trade Expansion Act. It identifies and strives to
reduce foreign trade barriers to U.S. agricultural exports.
Developments in foreign trade policies are examined and
their effect on agricultural trade and operations are re­
ported with recommendations as to courses of action.
The Service recommends Department positions and
participates in negotiations on trade agreements and
international commodity agreements. It reviews and re­
ports trade regulations of countries (primarily those
signatory to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade)
as to how such regulations affect the movement of U.S.
farm products in world trade.
The Service administers a program of import controls,
in accordance with section 22 of the Agricultural Adjust­
ment Act, on foreign farm products which would render
ineffective or materially interfere with Department pro­
grams relating to agricultural commodities. It is also
responsible for administering import controls established
under the 1964 Meat Import Act and section 204 of the
Trade Expansion Act.
2. Agricultural attachés.— The Service maintains agri­
cultural attachés at 62 foreign posts to assist in the
development of markets abroad for U.S. agricultural
commodities. They work closely with numerous U.S.
agricultural trade groups and maintain contacts with
foreign governments to promote greater market accessi­
bility for U.S. farm products. They carry out a compre­
hensive schedule of reporting foreign agricultural pro­
duction, marketing, and trade policy developments to
keep U.S. agriculture, industry, and Government currently
informed.
3. Market development— The Service administers pro­
grams concerned with the development of foreign markets
for agricultural products of the United States, and coordi­
nates interagency participation and action essential to ad­
ministration of these programs. These functions involve:
(a) Developing a system of woildwide promotional pro­
grams, on a commodity-by-commodity basis, in coopera­
tion with national organizations of producers, piocessors,
and exporters, and providing overall guidance to these
organizations in carrying out cooperative programs; (b)
developing, operating, and evaluating a worldwide system
of multicommodity promotional programs utilizing trade
fairs, trade centers and point-of-purchase campaigns to




expand overseas markets; (c) reviewing foreign marketing
plans; providing technical assistance in their design; de­
veloping procedures and controlling budgets and funds
essential to their implementation; and evaluating pro­
grams implemented; (d) cooperating with State and local
organizations in programs designed to provide technical
assistance to U.S. agricultural export firms and to stimu­
late participation of new U.S. “ cooperator” groups in
promotional projects; (e) developing and guiding a syste­
matic review of foreign markets on a country-by-country
basis to find new market opportunities for U.S. agricultural
products and to develop long-range promotional plans for
such markets; and (f) exploring new methods and tech­
niques to stimulate the flow of U.S. farm products into
overseas markets.
4.
Commodity programs.— Information essential to do­
mestic planning and to foreign marketing of specific U.S.
farm commodities is obtained, analyzed, and made avail­
able to U.S. farm and trade groups and to Government.
Foreign agricultural competition is analyzed and reported.
Marketing programs, in which producers, exporters, and
Government officials participate, are developed to main­
tain and expand the foreign market for U.S. farm products.
Assistance is given to U.S. trade representatives in nego­
tiations with foreign officials. Assistance is given to Ameri­
can exporters and foreign importers to bring them together
under conditions favorable to trade.

Market development projects.— Foreign currencies gen­
erated by the sale of agricultural commodities under title I
of the Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance
Act of 1954, as amended, as well as foreign currencies
acquired by the United States from other sources, are used
by the Foreign Agricultural Service to develop new foreign
markets and expand existing markets for U.S. agricultural
commodities, including cotton, dairy products, fats and
oils, grain, feed, livestock and meat, poultry, fruits and
vegetables, and tobacco.
The type of market development projects being carried
out include sales promotion campaigns, trade fairs and
exhibits, nutrition demonstrations, and market analyses.
In 1974 it is planned that the unobligated balance brought
forward in this appropriation will be used to purchase
those currencies necessary to carry on the program. Dollar
funds for use in other countries are included in the appro­
priation Foreign agricultural service.

FOREIGN ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AND SPECIAL
EXPORT PROGRAMS
Facilities and funds of the Commodity Credit Corpora­
tion may by law be used in carrying out programs for
exporting agricultural commodities. The laws also author­
ize appropriations to be made to cover costs of such
programs. When funds become available, advances are
made to the Corporation for estimated costs. If the
amounts appropriated are greater than actual needs, the
excess is used to reduce future appropriation requests.
If appropriations are less than actual needs, other Cor­
poration funds may be used temporarily to finance the
balance of authorized costs.

Sale oj agricultural commodities fo r foreign currencies
and fo r dollars on credit terms are made under title I of the
Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act of
1954 (Public Law 480), as amended (7 U.S.C. 1701-1710).
The Corporation finances all sales made pursuant to
agreements concluded under title I. Sales are made to
friendly countries— as defined in section 103(d) of the
act— and must not displace expected commercial sales
for cash dollars (secs. 103 (c) and (n)).
No agreements may be entered into after December 31,
1973 (sec. 409), and agreements may not be made under
title I in any calendar year which call for an appropriation
to reimburse the Corporation in excess of $1.9 billion, plus
unused prior years’ authorizations.
Whenever practicable, terms of agreements must re­
quire payment at time of delivery of not less than 5% of
the purchase price in dollars or in currencies convertible
to dollars. These initial payments are applied against costs
to reduce appropriation requests. On credit agreements
under title I, the President is authorized to require pay-

Sale®? of1 agricultural cómmodìtìM fo rfo m ig r i cur­
rencies (;title I ) .— Sales of agricultural commodities for
foreign currencies were made to .countries•••^àMe^bfesxpahd
commercial purchases becauseof a lack of doliar exchange.
Foreign currencies received in payment are depHited to
the account of the U.S. Treasury and cap? b^-üsed only as
stated m section 104* The dollar value df such' deposits
through June 30, 1972, amounted to $12.9 bi^lioji.
Uses fall into two groups^-those of benefit; l<o , the
foreign country, mainly loans and grants 4¿©b promote
economic development and to support cominon defense,
and those of benefit to thè Unitèd States/'Thè latter
includes, among others, expenses of the U.S. Gov&ramBnt
abroad, agricultural5 market development,' :ädücatiönal
exchange, construction of military family housing, and
sales, of fqreign currency to U.S. citizens uild^toutìsts..
Certain uses of foreign currencies including foreign
currency loän repayments for U.S. uses, apä Ccertain
foreign currency grants, are subject to the appropriation
process. S^les agreements spepify particular uses, and in
those entered; into after Deceznber-31, 1964, at least 20%
of the^ foreign currencies are required to be.subject to the
appropriation ,process,, with. . certain exception Such
uses reduce dollar outflow and the deficit in the, balance
of payments of, the United States. The Corporation is
reimbursed for the dollar value of currencies so used.
Proceeds from .sales of foreign currencies and from dollar
repayments of foreign currency Joans are applied as ,a
reduction in appropriation requests.
Section 509 of Public Law 86-500, approved June 8,
1960 (7 U.S.C. 1704b note) provides that at least575%
of the total cost of foreign military housing projects
(unless otherwise specified) shall be paid from foreign
currencies acquired under title I. Pursuant to. 10 U.S.C.
2681(b), as amended, the estimate reflects transfer to the
Corporation of $6 million each year to liquidate amounts
due. Of this amount* $2 million will be applied, to the
French housing barter transaction discussed under the
Corporation’ ' peci al activities and the remaining $4
million will be applied against other amounts due, with a

people, and nonprofit school lunch and preschool feeding
programs. They are furnished through friendly govern­
ments and private or public agencies, including inter­
governmental organizations such as the .WdiM Food
program. The Food for Peace Act, in amending title II,
expressed the sense of Congress that other advanced
nations should be encouraged to make increased contri­
butions for the purpose of combating world hunger and
malnutrition, and that to achieve this objective, the
United States should work to expand thé United Nations’
World Food program.
The Agency for International Development is responsi­
ble for administering title II programs. However^ the
Corporation makes available the commodities or products
requested for disposition under title II. Such commodities
or products are made available from the Corporation’s
stocks of commodities or products acquired under its
support program or are purchased at market prices when
this is determined to be in the best interest of the Govern­
ment.
'
Th e Corporation is authorized to pay, with respect to
commodities made available, the costs ô f! acquisitions,
packaging, processif, enrichment, preservation, forti­
fication, transportation, handling,¿ and other incidental
coáts incurred up to the timé of delivery to U.S. ports and
ocean freight charges and. general average contributions
arising out of ocean transport.
Approximately $7y2 mifiion each war may be used to
buy foreign currencies accruing under title I oí this act
to meet costs (other thán personnel'and administrative
costs of cooperating sponsors, distributing agencies,
and recipient agencies) directed to community and other
self-help activities designed to alleviate the %auses^for
the need for such aid.
Through December 31, 1972, appropriations totaling
$6,700 million were authorized. No programs of assistance
can be entered into after December 31, 1973, and none
shall be undertaken under this title during any calendar
year which call for an appropriation of more than $600
million to reimburse the Corporation for costs incurred,
including its investment, plus any amount by which pro­
grams of assistance undertaken under this title, in the
preceding calendar year have called or will call for
appropriations m amounts less than authorized during
the preceding year. Any incidental sales proceeds %nd
proceeds from loss, damage, and other claims are applied
against Commodity Credit Corporation costs to reflect
a reduction in appropriation requests.

In addition to the foreign assistance programs described,
the Commodity Credit Corporation conducted a special
export program for bartered materials for the supplemen­
tal stockpile (7 U.S.C. 1856). This program was closed out
in 1971. Barter activities are now limited to barter for
offshore procurement for other Government agencies on a
reimbursable basis.

This account includes funds to cover expenses of pro­
grams administered by, and functions assigned to, the
Service. The funds consist of direct appropriation, trans­
fers from the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC), and
miscellaneous advances from other sources. This is a
consolidated account for administrative expenses of
National, Commodity, State, and county offices.
The Commodity offices in Kansas City, Minneapolis,
and New Orleans play an important role in administering
support programs and the field operations stemming from
producer loan and purchase agreements, inventory man­
agement, and merchandising activities.
The data processing center in Kansas City provides
data processing services in connection with loan and
purchase programs; inventory operations; merchandising
computation and issuance of producer payments under
feed grain, wheat, and cotton programs; tobacco market­
ing and quota program; county office payrolls; and pro­
viding farmers, employees, and Internal Revenue Service
information for tax purposes.
The State committees are in general charge of all pro­
grams carried out in their respective States. Within the
framework of national policy, they determine the policies
to be followed and direct the adaptation of national
programs to the State.

D E P A R T M E N T OF A G R IC U L T U R E

The Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation elected
county committees are responsible for the local adminis­
tration of programs. They make local program decisions
and policies and appoint a county executive director who
directs the office staff in handling the day-to-day detailed
administrative work.
The programs and activities carried out by this service
include: rural environmental assistance program; emer­
gency conservation measures; Water Bank Act program;
Appalachian region conservation program; acreage allot­
ment and marketing quota programs; Sugar Act program;
conservation reserve program; feed grain, wheat, and
cotton programs; cropland conversion program; cropland
adjustment program; dairy and beekeeper indemnity
programs; Wool Act program; bin storage program; and
support and related programs.
The activities carried out by the Service fall within three
major categories:
1. Program formulation and appraisal.— The supply
adjustment, conservation, and commodity support pro­
grams, and the management and merchandising of com­
modities acquired under the support program, have a
tremendous impact on the national and, to a lesser extent,
the international economy. This activity provides for
constant review of the effectiveness of these programs. It
also provides for the analysis of data to formulate even
more effective programs.
2. Operation of supply adjustment, conservation, and
support programs.— This activity includes all functions
dealing with the administration of programs carried out
through the farmer committee system, including: (a) de­
veloping program regulations and procedures; (b) holding
meetings with employees and producers to discuss new
programs or changes in existing programs; (c) collecting
and compiling basic data for individual farms; (d) estab­
lishing individual farm allotments, bases, and yields;
(e) establishing proportionate shares for sugar farms when
necessary; (f) notifying producers of allotments, propor­
tionate shares, productivity indexes, and payment rates;
(g) determining farm marketing allocations; (h) handling
appeals; (i) conducting referendums and certifying re­
sults; (j) checking compliance with acreage allotments and
use of set-aside acres; (k) developing pooling agreements
under which several farmers work join tty to solve a com­
mon conservation problem which cannot be solved by
individual action; (1) issuing marketing cards so that
production from the allotted acreage can be marketed
without penalty; (nx) processing producer requests for
conservation cost sharing; and (n) processing commodity
loan documents and issuing sight drafts.
3. Inventory management and merchandising.— This ac­
tivity includes: (a) overall management of CCC-owned
commodities; (b) selling commodities; (c) donating com­
modities; and (d) accounting for loans and commodities.
The value of the commodities owned by CCC on June 30,
1972, was about $1,090 million.

The objectives are to provide consumers with adequate
supplies of sugar at reasonable prices, to protect the wel­
fare of the domestic sugar industry, and to promote the
export trade of the United States. Total U.S. requirements
and quotas are determined each year. The quota for each
domestic area is allotted to individual sellers when neces­
sary to achieve orderly marketing. Restrictive farm acre­
age allotments are established for producers when neces­
sary to avoid surpluses.
Payments are made which supplement the income of
domestic producers of cane and beets. Payments require
compliance with specified conditions of employment, pro­
duction, and price. Payments are also made for abandon­
ment of planted acreage and crop deficiencies on harvested
acreage due to natural calamities.

This program is designed to encourage conservation
by sharing with farmers, ranchers, and woodland owners
the cost of carrying out approved soil- and waterconserving practices, including related wildlife-conserving
practices, and water, air, and land pollution-abatement
practices which farmers generally would not perform
to the needed extent wTith their own resources. The
rate of cost-sharing averages about 50% of the cost.
Cost-sharing may be in the form of conservation materials
and services or a payment after completion of the practice.

The cropland adjustment program was authorized by
the Food and Agriculture Act of 1965 which expired with
the 1970 crop year. Cropland adjustment programs were
approved only for 1966 and 1967. This program assisted
farmers, through long-term agreements, to divert cropland
from the production of certain crops to more needed uses
that promote the development and conservation of our
soil, water, forest, wildlife, and recreational resources. The
period of an agreement was not less than 5 years nor more
than 10 years. The program also helped farmers establish,
protect, and conserve open spaces and natural beauty, and
prevent air and water pollution.
In return for diverting the cropland to approved public
benefit uses, producers receive adjustment payments.
They also are eligible to receive cost-sharing assistance for
establishing approved land treatment measures. Addi­
tional incentive payments are made to producers who
entered into agreements to permit free public access to
land designated under the cropland adjustment program
agreement, for hunting, trapping, fishing, and hiking.
Under the Greenspan provisions of the program, funds
were also made available to Federal, State, or local govern­
mental agencies for use in acquiring cropland for perma­
nent conversion to specified public uses, and cost-shares
could also be paid to such agencies for establishing ap­
proved land treatment measures consistent with the
conditions and costs under agreements entered into with
producers.

for migratory waterfowl and other wildlife resources, to
reduce runoff, soil and wind erosion, and contribute to
improved water quality and reduce stream sedimentation,
to contribute to improved subsurface moisture, to reduce
acres of new land coming into production and to retire
lands now in agricultural production, to enhance the
beauty of the landscape, and to promote comprehensive
water management planning.
The Secretary of Agriculture enters into agreements
with landowners and operators for the conservation of
specified wetlands. The agreements are for 10 years with
provision for renewal for additional periods. During the
period of the agreement, the landowner agrees not to
drain, burn, fill or otherwise destroy the wetland character
of such areas, nor to use such areas for agricultural
purposes, as determined by the Secretary. The Secretary
makes annual payments to the owner or operator at a
rate to be determined.
The Secretary carries out the program in harmony
with wetlands programs administered by the Secretary
of the Interior and utilizes the technical and related
services of appropriate State, Federal, and private con­
servation agencies to assure proper coordination.

This program, initiated in 1956, has two objectives.
One is to bring total crop acreage more nearly in line with
demand by withdrawing cropland from production. The
other is to establish and maintain sound conservation
practices on the land withdrawn. The Secretary was
authorized, through calendar year 1960, to enter into
3- to 15-year contracts with producers. For removing
designated cropland from production and for establishing
necessary conservation practices, the producer receives
an annual rental payment each year of the contract
period. He also receives cost-sharing assistance for the
establishment of required practices. Total annual rental
payments to a producer are limited to $5 thousand.
Participation in the program is summarized below:

assistance is or will be required to return the land to
productive agricultural use.
Under the 1972 program cost-sharing assistance is
being provided to treat farmlands damaged by flood,
tornado, hurricane, freeze, and fire. As of November 30,
1972, there were 89 counties in 18 States where assistance

Under this program the Department makes indemnifica­

This program began in 1964 and was limited (until the
passage of the Agricultural Act of 1970) to payments to
dairy farmers, who were directed to remove their milk
from commercial markets because it contained residues
of chemicals registered and approved for use by the
Federal Government
The Agricultural Act of 1970 authorized indemnification
payments, beginning with the date of its enactment, to
manufacturers of dairy products who have been directed
to remove their products because it contained residues
of chemicals registered and approved for use by the
Federal Government.
The Agricultural Act of 1970 also authorized payments
to beekeepers who, through no fault of their own, have
suffered losses of honey bees after January 1, 1967, as a
result of utilization of economic poisons near or adjacent

The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation, a wholly
owned Government Corporation, was created on Febru­
ary 16, 1938 (7 U.S.C. 1501-1519), to carry out the
provisions of the Federal Crop Insurance Act. The purpose
of this act is to promote the national welfare by improving
the economic stability of agriculture through a sound
system of crop insurance, and to provide the means for the
research and experience helpful in devising and establish­
ing such insurance.
Crop insurance offered to agricultural producers by
the Corporation provides protection from losses caused
by natural hazards, such as insect and wildlife damage,
plant diseases, fire, drought, flood, wind, and other
weather conditions. It does not indemnify producers for
losses resulting from negligence or failure to observe
good farming practices.
The crop insurance programs are developed and
analyzed in the Washington headquarters office and are
administered in the field by 14 sales and contract service
centers. Sales and servicing of contracts at the county
level is performed by private agents under contractual
agreements with the Corporation and by Corporation
employees hired on a permanent, part-time or W AE
(when actually employed) basis. Detailed administrative
and program accounting and statistical functions are
performed by the National Service Office in Kansas City,
Mo., as well as the underwriting and actuarial analysis.

The following table summarizes the insurance operations

Budget program.— The program for fiscal year 1974 will
provide crop insurance protection to farmers amounting
to approximately $925 million on the following com­
modities: apples, barley, beans, citrus, combined crop,
corn, cotton, flax, grain sorghum, grapes, oats, peaches,
peanuts, peas, raisins, rice, soybeans, sugar beets, sugar­
cane, tobacco, tomatoes, and wheat. Also, the Corporation
has been reinsuring a portion of the crop insurance written
by the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico since crop year
1968-

The following table indicates the scope of the insurance
operations planned for 1973 and 1974, as compared with
1972. Amounts in the 1972 column are actual, and pertain
to the 1971 crop year. The 1973 column pertains to the
1972 crop year, and the 1974 column pertains to the 1973
crop year.

Financing.— Capital stock of $100 million is authorized
to be subscribed by the United States. As of June 30, 1972,
the Secretary of the Treasury held receipts for $60 million
of authorized stock, leaving $40 million unissued.
Funds from the issuance of capital stock provide work­
ing capital for the Corporation. Receipts which are for
deposit to this fund come mainly from premiums paid by
farmers for crop insurance indemnity costs. The principal
payments from this fund are for: indemnities to insured
farmers; the direct cost of adjusting crop losses; and a part
of the administrative and operating expenses. However,
the direct cost of loss adjustment and the administrative
and operating expenses paid from the fund are not provided
for in the premium rates (section 508(b) of the Federal
Crop Insurance Act, as amended).
The annual appropriation for the major portion of the
administrative and operating expenses of the Corporation
is presented earlier in the budget.
It is estimated that gross income of $46 million from
operations will provide adequate operating funds for
fiscal year 1974, unless heavy losses occur early in the
fiscal year.
Operating results and financial condition.— As of June 30,
1972, the Corporation reflected a deficit of $21 million
which is lower by $14.6 million than the deficit of the year
before. The smaller deficit resulted from increased pre­
miums over indemnities for crop year 1971 to cover
expenses paid from the fund. Crop year 1971 premiums
of $48 million exceeded indemnities by over $19.5 million,
resulting in a loss ratio of 0.59 as compared with the 1970
loss ratio of 0.94.
A 0.90 loss ratio is estimated for crop year 1972. Pre­
miums of $42 million are estimated to exceed indemnities
by $4 million. For the crop years 1948 through 1971,
premium income ($654.9 million) exceeded indemnity
costs ($619.9 million) by $35 million; the loss ratio for the
period was 0.95. Premium income exceeded indemnity
costs in 13 of the 24 years.

The Corporation was created to stabilize, support, and
protect farm income and prices, help maintain balanced
and adequate supplies of agricultural commodities, their
products, foods, feeds, and fibers, and help in their orderly
distribution (15 U.S.C. 714-714p). It may also make
available materials and facilities required in connection
with the production and marketing of agricultural com­
modities. In addition to its basic functions, it is used to
administer and, in some cases, temporarily finance nu­
merous special activities.
The Corporation’s capital stock of $100 million is held
by the United States. Up to $14.5 billion may be borrowed
to finance operations.
Budget assumptions.— The following general assumptions
form the basis for the Corporation’s 1973 and 1974 budget
estimates: (a) Employment, production, and national
income will rise both in 1973 and 1974 from the present




b y C C C ).

level; (b) generally, exports of agricultural commodities
in 1974 will increase over 1973 levels; (c) yields for the 1973
crops are based on recent averages adjusted for trend; (d)
acreage allotments and marketing quotas will be in effect
for the 1973 crops of peanuts, rice, and certain kinds of
tobacco (flue-cured tobacco will be on an acreage-poundage program and Burley tobacco is on a poundage allot­
ment beginning with the 1971 crop); and (e) set-aside
programs for cotton, feed grains, and wheat will be in
operation.
It is difficult to forecast with accuracy, requirements for
the year ending June 30, 1974. Complex and unpredictable
factors are involved, such as weather, other factors which
affect the volume of production of crops not yet planted,
feed and food needs here and overseas, and available dollar
exchange.

Support.— The Corporation, through loans, purchases,
payments, and other means, provides support of agri­
cultural commodities to producers. This is done mainly
under the Commodity Credit Corporation Charter Act
(15 U.S.C. 714 et seq.) and the Agricultural Act of 1970,
Public Law 91-524 (7 U.S.C. 1421 et seq.).
Support is mandatory for the basic commodities— corn,
cotton, wheat, rice, peanuts, and tobacco. It also requires
support of the following nonbasic commodities: Tung
nuts, honey, milk, barley, oats, rye, and grain sorghum.
The National Wool Act of 1954, as amended (7 U.S.C.
1781-87), requires support for wool and mohair. Support
for other nonbasic commodities is discretionary. The
support program may also include operations to remove
and dispose of surplus agricultural commodities in order
to stabilize prices at levels not in excess of those permissible
by law.
The principal methods of providing support are loans
to and purchases from producers. With limited exceptions,
loans made on commodities are nonrecourse. The com­
modities serve as collateral for the loan and on maturity
the producer may deliver or forfeit such collateral to
satisfy his obligation without further payment.
Direct purchases are also made from processors as well
as producers, depending on the commodity involved. Also,
special purchases for the removal of surpluses are made
under certain laws, for example: The act of August 19,
1958, as amended (7 U.S.C. 1431 note), and section 416
of the Agricultural Act of 1949, as amended (7 U.S.C.
1431). For feed grains, in addition to loans and purchases,
producers receive payments. For upland and extra-long
staple cotton, producers receive payments in addition to
loans. For wheat, in addition to loans and purchases,
producers receive marketing certificates as hereinafter
described. In the feed grains, wheat, and cotton programs,
the producers must comply with acreage set-aside pro­
visions (hereinafter described), if in effect, in order to be
eligible for loans, purchases, payments, and certificates
(in the case of wheat). Also, the total amount of payments
which a person is entitled to receive under each of these
three programs on the 1971, 1972, or 1973 crop of the
commodity shall not exceed $55 thousand.
In support operations, normal trade facilities are used
to the maximum extent practicable. Cooperatives and
financial institutions are used in lending activities.




Commercial facilities are used to a great extent for
storage.
Besides the Charter Act and laws mentioned above,
many other laws are applicable to the disposition through
sales, donations, and barter of commodities acquired
under the support program. For accounting purposes, the
Corporation credits to the support program proceeds of
commodities sold from its stocks, including those disposed
of through redemption of domestic and export paymentin-kind certificates and through special activities.

Commodity export.— The Corporation promotes the
export of agricultural commodities and products through
sales, barters, payments, and other operations. Other than
in barters for stockpiling purposes, such commodities and
products may be those held in private trade channels as
well as those acquired by the Corporation. This program
is carried out under the authority contained in the
Corporation’s charter, particularly section 5 (d) and (f),
and in accordance with specific statutes where applicable.
Export sales for foreign currencies or on long-term credit
are financed by the Corporation under the Agricultural
Trade Development and Assistance Act of 1954, as
amended, although such sales of commodities owned by
the Corporation may also be made under its charter
authority.
The activities described below are illustrative of those
conducted under this program during 1973. With respect
to barter, the emphasis is on exports in connection with
various types of offshore procurement of materials and
services needed by the Department of Defense, the Agency
for International Development, and other agencies, for
which they pay the Corporation. Commodities available
for barter vary from time to time.
When necessary to encourage export movement from
free-market supplies, as well as from its own stocks, the
Corporation makes payments on exports of agricultural
commodities. The rate of payment generally is the differ­
ence between the prevailing world export sales price and
the domestic market price. Except for old crop tobacco
and some carryover from 1973 wheat contracts, it is not
anticipated that payments will be required during fiscal
year 1974. However, if payments for wheat and rice are
needed to make these commodities competitive in the
world markets, they will be reinstituted.
To help develop or expand foreign markets, the Corpora­
tion may furnish farm commodities and products for
samples or exhibits at international trade fairs and for use
abroad in testing consumer acceptance and commercial
market potentials.
To maximize exports of agricultural commodities, in­
cluding products thereof, the Corporation conducts an
export credit sales program under which it finances, for a

Administrative expenses.— Administrative expenses are
for the services of: The Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation Service, the Agricultural Marketing Service,
the Export Marketing Service and other agencies of the
Department engaged in the Corporation’s activities; the
General Accounting Office for audit; and the General
Services Administration for space. Estimates for 1974




include a limitation of $41.8 million on administrative
expenses, including a reserve of not less than 7 % for
contingencies.
The requested authorization excludes administrative
expenses in connection with the wool and mohair program
under the National Wool Act of 1954, as amended, which
are included with the cost of this program under special
activities.
Nonadministrative expenses.— Expenses for acquisition,
operation, maintenance, improvement, or disposition of
property which the Corporation owns or in which it
has an interest have been treated as program rather than
administrative expenses. Such expenses include inspection,
classing, and grading work performed on a fee basis by
Federal employees or Federal- or State-licensed inspectors;
work performed on a contract or fee basis by Agricul­
tural Stabilization and Conservation county committees
relating to CCC programs; and special services performed
by other Federal agencies outside of this Department.
Most of these general nonadministrative expenses,
including storage and handling, transportation, inspection,
classing, and grading and reseal payments are included in
program costs, in the entry entitled “Storage, trans­
portation, and other costs not included above” , in the
program and financing schedule. The item “ Nonad­
ministrative expense” , which appears in the schedule,
covers part of the expenses of county offices for work
related to programs of the Corporation, other Agri­
cultural Stabilization and Conservation Service expenses
offset by revenue, custodian and agency expense of the
Federal Reserve banks and lending agencies, and mis­
cellaneous costs.
ASCS is planning the acquisition and installation of
an advanced computer system containing a centralized
data base of farm producer and ASCS farm program
information, with on-line terminals in Washington and
field offices. The equipment and software required for
this new system will represent capital investment under
the statutory authority of the Commodity Credit Cor­
poration. It is contemplated that equipment will be
delivered in fiscal year 1975. If ASCS leases the computer,
rather than purchasing it, the additional cost would be
shown in “Limitation on Administrative Expenses,
CCC” .
The Corporation receives reimbursements for grain
requisitioned pursuant to Public Law 87-152 (7 U.S.C.
447-449) by the States from Corporation stocks to feed
resident wildlife threatened with starvation, through the
appropriation Reimbursement for net realized losses. The
Corporation also obtains recovery through this appro­
priation for the funds transferred to the Agricultural
Research Service pursuant to the Department of Agri­
culture and Related Agencies Appropriation Act of 1964,
for cost of production research and other related research
designed to reduce surplus commodities held by the
Corporation.
SPECIAL ACTIVITIES
These activities are carried out under authority of
section 5(g) of the Corporation’s Charter Act and specific
statutory authorizations or directives with respect thereto
which are currently in effect or which may subsequently
be enacted.
A summary of such current activities not included under
other designated activities is as follows (in thousands of
dollars):

The Corporation receives appropriations or reimburse­
ment for cost of these activities as described under each.
To the extent that sufficient appropriations are not
provided in advance, expenditures under the Agricultural
Trade Development and Assistance Act of 1954, as
amended and investments in materials transferred to the
supplemental stockpile, are made by the Corporation
subject to reimbursement from subsequent appropriations
authorized for such purpose.
Activities currently being carried out are as follows
(see foreign assistance programs and special export pro­
gram for details of items ( l) -( 4 ) ) :
(1) Sale of agricultural commodities for foreign currencies
(title I, Public Law 480).
(2) Sale of agricultural commodities for dollars on credit
terms (title 1, Public Law 4-80).
(3) Commodities supplied in connection with dispositions
abroad (title II , Public Law 480) .
(4) Bartered materials for supplemental stockpile.
(5) Military housing (barter and exchange).— During

1957, a contract was completed for the disposition of
Corporation-owned commodities valued at $50 million for
the construction of military housing in France with foreign
currencies obtained from this transaction. 10 U.S.C.
2681(b) as amended, provides for annual payment to the
Corporation by the Department of Defense until liquida­
tion of the amounts due for foreign currencies obtained
under Public Law 480 for military housing. It is estimated
that $2 million will be applied against the amounts due
under the French housing transaction in each year. Be­
ginning in 1967, the Treasury Department has classified
this as a nonexpenditure transaction.
(6) National Wool Act.— Under the National Wool Act
of 1954, as amended by the Agricultural Act of 1970,




support of prices of wool and mohair is mandatory. The
Corporation makes payments to producers in order to
bring the national average price received by all producers
up to the support price required under the act.

Total payments made under the National Wool Act
cannot at any time exceed an amount equal to 70% of the
accumulated totals, as of the same date, of the gross
receipts from import duties collected on and after
January 1, 1953, on wool and wool manufactures. Actual
or estimated payments compared with this limitation are

section 705 of the act appropriates each fiscal year an
amount equal to amounts expended by the Corporation
during the preceding year and to amounts expended in
prior fiscal years not previously reimbursed, but not to
exceed an amount equal to 70% of the gross receipts
from duties collected on wool and wool manufactures
during the calendar year preceding the fiscal year.

(7) Grain fo r migratory waterjow l feed .— To prevent
damage of crops by migratory waterfowl, the Corporation
is directed to furnish to the Secretary of the Interior
(7 U.S.C. 442-445) such grain acquired through support
operations and certified by the Corporation as available
for such purposes or in such condition as to be undesirable
for human consumption, as the Secretary of the Interior
shall requisition. This appropriation item is included under
that Department to reimburse CCC.
(8) Surplus grain fo r migratory birds.— Under Public
Law 87-152, approved August 17, 1961 (7 U.S.C. 448) the
Secretary of the Interior may requisition grain of the
Corporation to feed starving migratory birds. This
appropriation item is included under that Department to
reimburse CCC.
(9) Grading and classing activities.— The Corporation
may make advances to the Agricultural Marketing
Service for classing and grading of agricultural com­
modities without charge to producers (7 U.S.C. 414a,
440). Such advances used for classing cotton and grading
tobacco not placed under support loan are repaid from an
appropriation of the Service.
(10) Research to increase domestic consumption of farm
commodities.— The Department of Agriculture and Related
Agencies Appropriation Act of 1964 authorized the transfer
of not more than $16 million from the appropriation.
Removal of surplus agricultural commodities (sec. 32), to
the Corporation to be used to increase domestic consump­
tion of surplus farm commodities, and provided for the
transfer for such purposes thereafter of such sums not in
excess of $25 million in any 1 year, as may be approved by
Congress. The 1965 appropriation act authorized the
transfer of $12,175 thousand of section 32 funds for this
purpose. The Corporation transfers such funds to the
Agricultural Research Service and Cooperative State
Research Service to conduct the required research.
(11) Defense activities.— Upon the declaration of a
national emergency, the facilities, services, authorities,
and funds of the Corporation may be used, as directed by
the Secretary and in accordance with applicable provisions
of law, to carry out responsibilities and functions assigned
to the Secretary under the Defense Production Act of
1950, as amended, the Civil Defense Act, as amended, and
such other defense legislation as may be enacted.
(12) Transfer of long-staple cotton from national stockpile
for sale by Commodity Credit Corporation.— The act of
July 10, 1957 (71 Stat. 290), authorized the transfer of
50.000 bales of domestically grown cotton from the na­
tional stockpile to the Corporation for sale. Also, about
219.000 bales of cotton, both American-Egyptian and
foreign grown, in the stockpile were made available to the
Corporation for disposition under Public Law 87-548,
approved July 25, 1962. The cotton is not recorded as a
Corporation asset. Proceeds less costs incurred, including
administrative expenses, are covered into the Treasury as
miscellaneous receipts from time to time. No interest is
paid by the Corporation for the use of the money prior to
covering. This program was closed out in 1971.
(13) Loans fo r rural environmental assistance.— Under
section 391(c) of the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938,
as amended (7 U.S.C. 1391(c)), the Corporation advances
funds to the Secretary in amounts not to exceed $50
million annually to purchase conservation materials and
services. Repayments of the loans plus interest are made




from balances of prior appropriations or from new funds
appropriated for the rural environmental assistance pro­
gram.
(¿4) Use of CCC facilities fo r A S C S programs.— Under
the respective enabling legislation, the services, facilities,
and authorities of the Corporation are used to make pay­
ments to producers under various programs administered
by the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service.
Among these programs are conservation reserve, crop­
land conversion, rural environmental assistance, cropland
adjustment, Appalachia regional conservation, emergency
conservation measures, the Sugar Act program and the
Water Bank Act program.
(15) Purchases of dairy products under sec. 709 of the
Food and Agriculture A ct of 1965.— The Corporation, on
behalf of the Secretary, purchases at market prices dairy
products which are donated to meet the requirements for
schools, domestic relief distribution, community action
programs, and other programs as are authorized by law,
when there are insufficient stocks of such products in the
hands of the Corporation available for such purposes.
This program is conducted under sec. 5(g) of the Corpora­
tion’s Charter Act and sec. 709 of the Food and Agriculture
Act of 1965. Costs incurred for this activity are included
in the Corporation’s net realized loss for which it is reim­
bursed annually by appropriation pursuant to Public Law
87-155.
(16) Loan fo r animal disease eradication.— Public Law
92-73, approved August 10, 1971, authorizes the Secretary
to transfer from funds of agencies or corporations of the
Department such sums as he deems necessary to be avail­
able in emergencies which threaten the livestock or poultry
industries, for the arrest and eradication of contagious or
infectious diseases of animals or poultry and for expenses
in accordance with the act of February 28, 1947, as
amended. During fiscal year 1972, $12.5 million for exotic
Newcastle disease was transferred from Commodity Credit
Corporation funds. In 1973, an additional $28.0 million
for exotic Newcastle disease, and $5.7 million for hog
cholera emergency operations are estimated to be trans­
ferred, with reimbursement in 1974, from funds appro­
priated to the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.
FIN AN CIN G
Borrowing authority.— The Corporation has an author­
ized capital stock of $100 million held by the United
States and authority to. borrow up to $14.5 billion.
Funds are borrowed from Treasury and may also be
borrowed from private lending agencies and others. The
Corporation reserves a sufficient amount of its borrowing
authority to purchase at any time all notes and other
obligations evidencing loans made or held by lending
agencies or other financial institutions or certificates of
interest issued in connection with the financing of its
operations. All bonds, notes, debentures, and similar
obligations issued by the Corporation are subject to ap­
proval by the Secretary of the Treasury as required by
the act of March 8, 1938 (15 U.S.C. 713a-4).
Interest on borrowings from the Treasury (and on
capital stock) is paid at a rate based upon the average
interest rate of all outstanding marketable obligations
(of comparable maturity date) of the United States as of
the preceding month. Interest is also paid on certificates
of interest and lending agency obligations for the period
the agencies have their funds invested.
The Department of Agriculture and 'Related Agencies

realized losses incurred as of the close of each year.
The realized losses for 1972 subject to reimbursement
were $3,457 million, and the cumulative losses not yet
appropriated for were $7,515 million. An appropriation
of $3,457 million would provide sufficient funds for the
operations described for 1974. It would also leave a desir­
able operating margin to assure flexibility of operations in
view of the volume of transactions handled.
The special activities are financed as indicated in the
program description above. In addition to certain reim­
bursements from other agencies, appropriations are made
for the National Wool Act (see above) and for foreign
assistance and special export programs (see that heading
on p. 141).
Deficit.— The net realized losses of the Corporation have
previously been reimbursed as follows (in thousands of
dollars):

4,482,832

On the basis of the budgetary assumptions, the esti­
mated requirements indicate no need for an increase in
borrowing authority. Since there are so many uncontrol­
lable factors involving crops which have not even been
planted, it must be recognized that estimates are highly
tentative.

PROGRAM S

14,500,000

Contract authority.— Support and other programs re­
quired by statute may result in the Corporation incurring
obligations in excess of available funds and borrowing
authority. Such obligations are liquidated from subse­
quent appropriations and other funds which may become
available to the Corporation. Any increase in obligations in
excess of available fund resources is reported as contract
authority in the year involved; a decrease is reported as
the application of appropriations and other funds to
liquidate the authority. The budget reflects a net increase
of $317 million in 1972, a decrease of $790 million in 1973,
and none in 1974.

For administrative expenses, to carry out the provisions of the Rural
Electrification Act of 1936, as amended (7 U.S.C., 901-950(b)), and
the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act, as amended, (86
Stat. 657-667), relating to electrification and telephone loans, including
not to exceed $500 for financial and credit reports, funds for employ­
ment pursuant to the second sentence of section 706(a) of the Organic
Act of 1944 (7 U.S.C. 2225), and not to exceed $150,000 for employ­
ment under 5 U.S.C. 3109, $16,720,000. (Public Law 92-399, A gri­
culture-Environmental and Consumer Protection Appropriation Act,

National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corporation
(CFC) or other supplemental sources. Telephone loans are
made by the REA or by the Rural Telephone Bank, estab­
lished by Public Law 92-12. In some cases, concurrent
loans will be made by the REA and by the telephone bank.
The rural telephone bank partially or jointly utilizes the
facilities and services of employees of the REA without
cost to the bank. Concurrent loans in both programs, and
the development of the rural telephone bank, has required
the development and implementation of extensive new
procedures for loan approval and advance of funds.
Assistance is provided to electrification borrowers and
potential borrowers to negotiate for adequate supplies of
power on reasonable terms. Business management and
technical help is furnished borrowers where needed to
protect the Government’s loan security, to assure that
construction and operation of their systems conform to
approved standards, and that the systems will provide
continuous and reliable service and facilitate the most
effective use of resources to achieve program objectives.

Capital for the Rural Telephone Bank is obtained
through the sale of its stock to the U.S. Government and
to borrowers of loan funds, and the sale of debentures to
the Secretary of the Treasury, limited to eight times the
paid-in capital and retained earnings of the bank. The
legislation establishing the bank authorizes U.S. stock
purchases totaling $300 million, with up to $30 million
to be appropriated annually from net collection proceeds
in the rural telephone account. This will require an ap­
propriation of $30 million in 1974. It is estimated that an
additional $7.7 million in capital will be obtained through
the sale of stock to borrowers and retained earnings. Bor­
rowings by the bank during the year are estimated at $30
million in 1973 and $90 million in 1974.
Bank loans bear interest rates at the highest rate
consistent with the borrowers’ ability to pay, but not
less than 4% . Some borrowers receive concurrent loans
from REA and from the telephone bank. Bank loans
supplement the REA telephone loan program and enable
borrowers to provide adequate and dependable telephone
service to rural residents at a faster pace. It is estimated
that the bank will make loans totaling $126 million in
1973 and $150 million in 1974.
Although the bank may partially or jointly use the per­
sonnel and facilities of REA and other agencies of the
Department without cost to the bank until conversion to
borrower control, there are certain operating costs which
must be borne by the bank. The compensation and ex­
penses of the eight members of the bank board who are
not Federal employees or officers, and of officers and em­
ployees engaged solely on telephone bank activities and
procurement for the bank, must be paid by the bank. In
addition, the authorizing legislation specifies that the
bank shall at no time be entitled to transmission of its mail
free of postage.

Rural water and waste disposal grants.— This program is
authorized by subtitle A of the Consolidated Farm and
Rural Development Act. It provides for planning grants
to be made to public and private bodies with authority
to prepare comprehensive plans for the development of
water or waste disposal systems in rural areas which do
not have funds available for such planning. In addition,
development grants are made to associations, including
nonprofit corporations, public and quasi-public agencies,
and certain Indian tribes to finance specific projects for
the development, storage, treatment, purification, or
distribution of water or the collection, treatment, or dis­
posal of waste in rural areas. The amount of the grant may
not exceed 50% of the development cost of the project.
Development grants to associations may be made in
connection with insured loans for water and waste dis­
posal systems described under the Rural development
insurance fund.
This program was among those selected for termination,
reduction, or reform after a review of Federal programs to
identify those that were of relatively low priority. As a re­
sult of this review, and as a result of new authorities pro­
vided in the clean water bill, this program is being
terminated effective January 1, 1973. Applications which
had been certified for approval by this date will be proc­
essed for approval and disbursement.

Rural housing fo r domestic farm labor.— Financial as­
sistance in the form of grants is provided to public or
private nonprofit organizations, or other eligible organiza­
tions for low-rent housing and related facilities for domestic
farm labor, as authorized by the Housing Act of 1964.
Assistance not to exceed 90% of the total development
cost may be provided for new structures (including basic
household furnishings) and sites, and for rehabilitation,
alteration, conversion or improvement of dwellings, dining
halls, community rooms or buildings, and infirmaries
used by domestic farm laborers. Such financial assistance
may be made in connection with insured farm labor
housing loans under the Rural housing insurance fund. No
new obligations will be incurred under this grant program
after Janua^ 8, 1973, pending completion of a thorough
evaluation of federally subsidized housing programs.
This evaluation will focus on whether the programs: (1)
are the most effective mechanisms available for providing
housing assistance to low income families ; (2) are providing
excessive benefits to others than the intended beneficiaries ;
(3) represent a proper Federal role. Applications which had
been certified for approval by this date will be processed
for approval and disbursement.

Mutual and self-help housing.— This assistance was
authorized by section 1005 of the Housing and Urban
Development Act of 1968 (Public Law 90-448). These
grants are especially designed to aid the development of
comprehensive plans to permit an expansion of mutual
and self-help housing programs under which groups of
families build their own homes by mutually exchanging
labor. In 1972, a total of nine grants were made for
$1,617,910. It is estimated that 25 grants totaling $3,729
thousand will be made to nonprofit organizations in 1973
and that 25 grants totaling $3,832 thousand will be made
in 1974. These organizations will provide technical
staffs to assist approximately 3,000 low-income families
in 1973 and in 1974 to build their homes by the self-help
method.
