BUDGET
OF THE
UNITED STATES
GOVERNMENT
FISCAL YEAR 1975
APPENDIX
THE BUDGET DOCUMENTS
Data and analyses relating to the budget for 1975 are
published in four documents:
The Budget of the United States Government, 1975 con
tains the information that most users of the budget
would normally need, including the Budget Message of
the President. The Budget presents an overview of the
President’s budget proposals which includes explanations
of spending programs and estimated receipts. This docu
ment also contains a description of the budget system
and various summary tables on the budget as a whole.
The Budget of the United States Government, 1975—
Appendix contains detailed information on the various
appropriations and funds which comprise the budget.
The Appendix contains more detailed information than
any of the other budget documents. It includes for each
agency: the proposed text of appropriation language,
budget schedules for each account, explanations of the
work to be performed and the funds needed, proposed
general provisions applicable to the appropriations of en
tire agencies or groups of agencies, and schedules of
permanent positions. Supplemental proposals for the cur-
rent year and new legislative proposals are identified
separately. Information is also provided on certain activi
ties, whose outlays are not part of the budget totals.
Special Analyses, Budget of the United States Government,
1975 contains 16 special analyses that are designed to
highlight specified program areas or provide other signifi
cant presentations of Federal budget data.
This document includes analytical information about:
Government finances and operations as a whole and how
they affect the economy; Government-wide program and
financial information for Federal education, manpower,
health, income security, civil rights, and crime reduction
programs; trends and developments in the areas of Federal
aid to State and local governments, research and develop
ment, and environmental protection.
The United States Budget in Brief, 1975 provides a more
concise, less technical overview of the 1975 Budget than
the above volumes. Summary and historical tables on
the Federal budget and debt are also provided, together
with graphic displays.

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
grouped 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, Federal funds, 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 1975 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 normally contained in the Treas
ury, Postal Service, and General Government Appro
priation 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, 1975.
FORM OF DETAILED MATERIAL
A P P R O P R IA T IO N
LANGUAGE
The language proposed for inclusion in the 1975 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 1974 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
and
E
xpen ses
F o r expenses necessary fo r the general adm inistration o f the
D epartm ent o f Com m erce, including n ot to exceed $1,500 for official
entertainm ent, C$8,000,0001 $10,773,000. (IS U .S.C. 1601; D e
partment o f Commerce Appropriation Act, 1974.)
Following the language, and printed in italic within pa
rentheses, are citations to relevant authorizing legislation
and to the appropriation act from which the basic text is
taken. (When an appropriation has not been enacted at
the time the budget is submitted, the language relates
only to 1975 and is italicized with no brackets shown.)
B A S IS
FOR
SCH EDU LES
The 1973 column generally includes enacted amounts,
except for amounts in two regular appropriation bills
which were not enacted into law. In those instances, the
amounts shown are equal to the maximums provided
under the authority of temporary continuing appro
priations.
The 1974 column generally includes enacted amounts.
For a few accounts which have received supplemental
appropriations but not their regular 1974 appropriations,
separate memorandum entries appear for both pending
and enacted 1974 budget authority. In some of those ac
counts, amendments to pending 1974 budget requests
are shown in brief additional program and financing sched
ules in Part I. These amendments are explained and
accompanied by any necessary appropriation language in
Part III.
The basic schedules for Federal and trust funds exclude
anticipated supplemental estimates except those for statu
tory and wage board pay raises. The anticipated supple
mental estimates, other than for pay, are covered by
brief program and financing schedules, without appropria
tion language. For those supplemental estimates which are
being transmitted for consideration with the 1975 budget,
pay supplementals identified in the regular schedules and
separate schedules headed: “ Supplementals now re
quested,” the appropriation language is included in
Part III of this document.
The 1975 column of the regular schedules includes
proposed appropriations for recommended extension or
renewal of expiring laws; however, amounts for proposed
new legislation are shown in separate schedules, generally
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
systems, 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, costs
shown are the value of assets acquired.
Total obligations are always shown; activities and
objects are reflected on an obligation basis where cost
data are not available. Obligations refer to orders placed,
contracts awarded, loan agreements made, and recurring
services (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 their budget presentations are on the basis of
accrued expenditures.
SCH EDU LE
OF PRO G RAM
AND
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.
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 1973,
1974, and 1975. 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 entry
“ Change in selected resources.”
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.
N A R R A T IV E
STATEM ENT
OF
PROGRAM
AND
PERFORM ANCE
The work planned and services proposed to be carried
out are described briefly in a narrative statement for each
appropriation or fund. Where practicable, the narrative
statement presents accomplishments in relation to financial
requirements, and available measures of program and
performance.

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 b y
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 arithemetically. Thus the average salary can fall outside the salary
range of the average grade.
STATEM ENT
OF
REVENUE
AND
EXPENSE
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 usually on a full
accrual basis including provision for depreciation, for
losses on receivables, etc.

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.

IN T R A G O V E R N M E N T A L T R A N S A C T IO N S
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, or when a payment from a Govern
ment agency excluded from the budget totals (annexed
budgets) is credited to a budgetary receipt account and
appropriated therefrom. In order to avoid duplication, intragovernmental transactions (i.e., intrabudgetary trans
actions and receipts from Federal agencies outside the
ment of Agriculture, the Farm Credit Administration, and
most of the annexed budgets have been included, without
review, in the amounts submitted by the agencies.

of both budget authority and outlays.
P R O P R IE T A R Y

FROM
THE
P U B L IC
The compact budget volume offsets against outlays
for each agency and function the receipts from the public
which are market-oriented or are mainly payments for
goods and services, regardless of the fund structure. The
Appendix continues the conventional practice of offsetting
in the individual schedules only those amounts received
that are earmarked by law for use in revolving funds, or
as reimbursements to appropriations or other funds.

2. Organization and control of library materials.— Library
materials are cataloged for ready retrieval and are classified
for systematic arrangement on the shelves of the collection.
Card catalogs are maintained. Issues of serial publications
are identified and recorded. Cataloging data is converted
to machine-readable form for the use of the Library of
Congress and other libraries and cataloging service agen
cies. Systems of subject headings and classification are
continuously developed for the Library’s needs and for the
national library community.
Objectives in these activities for 1975 are to continue to
reduce backlogs in cataloging and catalog maintenance
operations and to continue the development of the
machine-readable cataloging data base.
Selected performance data for 1973 and estimated for
1974 and 1975 (not including processing activities per
formed by the Reference Department and Law Library)
are as follows:

3. Reader and reference services.— Books and other library
materials are provided inside and outside of the Library,
reference and bibliographic assistance is rendered, and
custody of the collections is maintained. The objective of
this activity for 1975 is to continue to organize more ma
terial for use, to make it available to readers more readily,
and to improve reference bibliographic and circulation
services. The workload in major activities is expected to
increase in 1974 and 1975 as follows:

4. National program for acquisitions and cataloging.—
Under NPAC, the Library of Congress seeks to acquire,
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 130 percent
in the number of books cataloged— from 109,798 new titles
in 1965 (prior to the program) to 253,260 new titles in 1973.
This doubling of the amount of current cataloging avail
able has resulted in savings of many millions of dollars by
libraries across the Nation. Prior to the establishment of
the NPAC program, independent studies have 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 1975 are the continua
tion of the basic program at its 1974 level in order to con
tinue 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 1975 include
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, or by repair
and restoration. Materials are also preserved by converting
them to a more durable base through such means as the
microfilming of books and newspapers, by conversion of
nitrate film to a safety base film, and by the conversion of
deteriorating sound recordings to polyester tape. In
addition, the Library conducts original research into the
many unsolved preservation problems encountered in
dealing with millions of deteriorating books and other
materials in the Library of Congress collections as well as
in the other research libraries of the Nation.

executive staff of the Office of the Librarian, and the ad
ministrative department, except for preservation of the
collections activities. Included are funds for equipment
rentals; staff for personnel and fiscal management, pro
curement, protective services, and duplicating services. In
addition, the Library is requesting $3,063 thousand to pay
the General Services Administration for space it currently
occupies in buildings under the control of that agency as
provided by Public Law 92-313.

1. Policy analysis and research.— The Congressional
Research Service provides analytical and consultative
services to the Members and committees of Congress,
assisting them in the analysis, appraisal, and evaluation
of legislative issues and proposals, and of recommendations
submitted to the Congress by the executive branch.
Research services are also provided to assist Congress
with its oversight, representative, and other responsi
bilities. Support comes in the form of background studies,
in-depth policy analyses, consultations and briefings,
legal research, assistance with committee hearings, and
related data and materials. Lists of subjects and policy
areas that a committee might profitably pursue are
periodically made available to each congressional com
mittee. These services are directed toward assisting
Members and committees in determining the advisability
of enacting legislative proposals, in estimating the probable
results of such proposals and of alternatives to them, and
in evaluating methods for accomplishing the results sought.
2. Documentation and status of legislation.— The Service
periodically prepares and publishes for distribution to
Members and committees the Digest of Public General
Bills and Resolutions, which includes summaries of all
public bills and resolutions introduced in Congress, the
status of bills receiving action, and various pertinent
indexes. The Service also prepares and distributes periodic
reports that provide background and status information
on major legislative issues and related bills. Upon request,
the service provides Members and committees with
legislative history memoranda on bills for which hearings
have been announced, and compiles and makes available
to each committee reports on legislatively authorized
programs and activities within that committee’s juris
diction that are scheduled to terminate during the current
Congress.
3. Information and reference services.— The Congressional
Research Service provides extensive information and
reference assistance to Members and committees. Refer
ence files, containing clippings, pamphlets, and documents,
and automated information services are maintained for
rapid information retrieval. Lists of selected reports,
prepared by CRS staff on legislative issues, are regularly
distributed to congressional offices. T o provide faster
responses and in-person services, the Service also maintains
reference centers in congressional office buildings and the
Congressional Reading Room.

The Card Division sells copies of the Library’s printed
catalog cards, cataloging data in machine-readable form,
book catalogs, and technical publications. It maintains a
stock of over 100 million catalog cards representing
approximately 670,000 titles which are frequently or
dered. From this stock are supplied 90 percent of the cards
which are sold. A master file containing a single, repro
ducible copy of each of the cards representing the approx
imately 6 million titles which the Library has cataloged
since 1898 is also maintained. Requests for cards for any
of the 5,330,000 less frequently ordered titles are satis
fied 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
35,825 subscribers, about 25,000 of which are active
accounts in any given year. In fiscal 1973, 68% of this
appropriation was recovered in the form of receipts from
card and publications sales. Receipts of $6,890,236 were
deposited in miscellaneous receipts of the Treasury in
fiscal 1973. The objectives for 1975 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 bibliographic and locational tool; the
development of other technical publications; and the use
of new technology to improve service, to increase effi
ciency, and to reduce costs.
1. Supplying cards for the Library of Congress.— The
number of cards supplied to the Library of Congress in
fiscal 1973 was 40,407,471; estimated for 1974, 45 million;
and estimated for 1975, 50 million.
2. Supplying cards for other libraries.— The number of
cards sold in fiscal 1973 was 73,599,751; sales for 1974
and 1975 are estimated at about the same, or a slightly
lower level.
3. Preparation, printing, and distribution of publications
related to cataloging.— These publications are an integral
part of the cataloging activities of the Library of Congress
and include the “ Classification Schedules,” lists of “ Sub
ject Headings,” “ Cataloging Service” bulletins, and
similar publications.
4. Preparation, printing, and distribution of the “ National
Union Catalog.” — This catalog (a cumulative author list)
is issued monthly and cumulated quarterly and annually.
Subscribers also receive issues of “ Films and Other
Materials for Projection” (quarterly with annual cumula
tion), “ Music Books on Music and Sound Recordings”
(semiannual with annual cumulation), the “ Register of
Additional Locations,” and the “ National Register of
Microform Masters.” There were 2,445 paid subscriptions
for all issues in calendar year 1972, and it is estimated
that there will be 2,450 subscriptions for 1973 and about
the same number for 1974.
5. Preparation, printing, and distribution of the “ Subject
Catalog.” — This catalog is issued in three quarterly
volumes with an annual cumulation. There were 943 paid

Note.— Includes $80 thousand in 1975 for activities previously financed from :
Library of Congress, Salaries and Expenses: 1973, $80 thousand; 1974, $80 thousand.
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 acquisitions.
Although they generally amount to only a limited portion
of the total number of pieces received annually, they are
materials which are not generally or readily available to the
Library of Congress from any other source and thus must
be purchased to insure completeness of the collections.
The objectives for 1975 are: to continue procurement of
important research materials to insure the continuous and
comprehensive development of the Library’s collections
thereby maintaining their national preeminence; to
continue the purchase of important foreign commercial
books, newspapers, and periodicals; to continue the exten
sive procurement of essential research materials from
areas critical to U.S. foreign relations, particularly from
Eastern Europe, Africa, Asia, a n i Latin America; to
continue to strengthen the Library’s current acquisi
tions in the rapidly expmding 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 acquir
ing 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 constitutes 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 1975
are: to continue the procurement of certain current do
mestic 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 cur
rent 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 photoduplicates of
important research items, especially those from critical
areas, which are no longer obtainable in the original.

Objectives for 1975 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,
1969-73, the number of blind and physically handicapped
readers throughout the country has grown from over 165,000 to about 383,000 and circulation from approximately
5,730,000 units (volumes, containers, and reels) to about
10,830,000. The number of readers and the circulation are
expected to continue to increase in 1974 and 1975 at the
same rate as in the past 5 years. Approximately 10,000
inquiries were received in 1973 concerning library and re
lated 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 fiscal
1973 over 485 individuals were certified, and it is antici
pated that this level will continue during 1974 and 1975.
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 national collections of
braille and recorded books to supplement titles deposited
in libraries across the country and to furnish direct service
to residents of Puerto Rico and Americans living abroad.
In addition, music materials are provided directly to
readers throughout the country.

Under authority originally granted in section 104(n) of
Public Law 85-931 (new sec. 104(b)(5) of the Food for
Peace Act of 1966) the Librarian of Congress may use
foreign currencies to provide information 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 five countries in 1974: Egypt, India,
Nepal (through the Library’s New Delhi office using
Indian rupees), Pakistan, and Poland. Of the total amount
requested in 1975, $1,718,500 will be paid in foreign cur
rencies, 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 cer
tain research libraries in the United States, publications
and other library materials will be purchased in multiple
copies from five 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 re
quired 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
instances, and equipment and supplies which cannot be
procured abroad.

The Office of the Superintendent of Documents operates
under a separate appropriation which provides all of the
funds for: (1) The compilation of catalogs and indexes of
Government publications; (2) the distribution of Govern
ment publications to designated depository libraries; and
(3) the mailing for Members of Congress and other
Government agencies of certain Government publications,
as authorized by law. It also provides part of the funding
for the sale of Government publications.
These four functions are related to the publication
activity of other agencies and to the demands of the
public, Members of Congress, and depository libraries.
Consequently, the Public Documents Department can
exercise little control over the volume of work which it
may be called upon to perform. A description follows:
1.
Sales distribution.— Selected Government publica
tions are placed on sale to the public. Certain costs
associated with these publications are deducted from sales
receipts and the remaining amount returned to the
Treasury. For many years the amount returned to the
Treasury exceeded the appropriated funds provided for
funding the sale of Government publications. Because of
recent cost increases, particularly in postage that could
not be recovered immediately through price increases, the
General and special funds— Continued

expen ses—
c o n tin u e d
return to the Treasury did not cover the appropriation
for the sales program in fiscal years 1972 and 1973.
Subscriptions run for 1 year or longer so no increase in
revenue will be realized until these subscriptions expire
and are renewed at the new prices. Furthermore, no
increased revenue will be realized from publications in our
present inventory until we reprice them at the current
scale and revise all our catalogs and price lists. It is not
considered possible to restore the historical balance
between sales revenues and sales program costs before
fiscal year 1976.
2. Distribution for other agencies and Members of Con
gress.— The Superintendent of Documents maintains
mailing lists and mails, at the request of Government
agencies and Members of Congress, certain publications
specified by public law.
3. Depository library distribution.— As required, Gov
ernment publications are supplied to libraries which are
designated as depositories for Government publications.
4. Cataloging and indexing.— The Documents Depart
ment is charged with preparing catalogs and indexes of all
publications issued by the Federal Government. The
principal publication is the “ Monthly Catalog of U.S.
Government Publications.”

This program establishes a framework 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 with significant potential for
future growth.
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 Appalachia; to
reduce highway transportation costs to and within
Appalachia; to provide the highway transportation facili
ties 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 1975 provides $160 million to
fully liquidate obligations through that period.
The status of the system of roads including mileage
prefinanced by the State follows:

General and special funds— Continued
A p p a l a c h i a n R e g i o n a l D e v e l o p m e x t P r o g r a m s — Continued
consist of projects aimed primarily at providing the basic
facilities essential to the region’s growth and economic
development, particularly in the areas of health and
education.
During 1975 emphasis will be placed on conducting area
development activities within the four geographic subregions of Appalachia by an allocation system permitting
greater State flexibility in the type of projects undertaken.
These projects will be of the following four types, with
the project mix depending on the State plans adopted
within the context of the subregional development
strategies.
(a) Demonstration health projects.— Grants are made for
the construction, equipping, and operation of multicounty
demonstration health facilities including hospitals, regional
health diagnostic or treatment centers, and other facili
ties. In addition, grant support is provided for primary
care and child development programs throughout the
region.

DISASTER RELIEF
Federal Funds
General and special funds:
1. Administration.— Up to 3 percent of the funds pro
vided for disaster relief may be used for the administrative
expenses of the Federal Disaster Assistance Administra
tion in coordinating and administering the disaster relief
program.
2. Aid to disaster areas.— Under the Disaster Relief Act
of 1970, as amended, the Federal Government will provide
supplementary assistance to State and local governments
and to individuals in the event of a declared major disaster
by the President. Funds may be made available directly to
a State, or to Federal agencies as reimbursement for ex
penditures in disaster relief work performed under this
authority. In addition, funds are also provided to States
for disaster planning. Responsibility for administration of
this program is delegated to the Secretary of Housing and
Urban Development by Executive order.
The administration of disaster assistance would be
consolidated and improved under the proposed Disaster
Preparedness and Assistance Act. This bill is based upon a
recent study of all disaster relief activities of the Federal
Government. It places emphasis upon preventive meas
ures and encourages the use of insurance before disasters
occur. It increases the role of State and local officials in
determining how Federal money would be spent in assist
ing disaster-stricken communities. The bill provides for
automatic release of Federal funds in the case of major
disasters. Federal assistance would be provided more
rapidly. The bill also includes grant features for those
disaster victims unable to repay Government loans while
continuing grants to help communities restore their public
facilities. With this legislation, a better job could be done
in preparing for disasters and in providing assistance.

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. The program
is conducted primarily through a revolving fund financed
by borrowing from the Treasury. The amount borrowed
may not exceed $2.1 billion outstanding at any one time.
In addition, materials which are excess to defense require
ments may be sold to other Federal agencies and the
public. Disposals by the General Services Administration
as of June 30 are as follows (in millions of dollars):

1 In addition, an appropriation of $108 million was applied to General Services
Administration activities, thus providing financing of $2,030 million to that
agency.
Financial condition of the fund.— Losses under the
programs are reflected as $1,760 million as of June 30,
1973, with inventory of metals and minerals carried at
acquisition cost of approximately $588 million. Using
inventory market price of $307 million, the deficit would
amount to about $2,041 million. Interest expense on
borrowing from Treasury amounts to approximately $128
million for 1974 and $130 million for 1975.
Legislation has been proposed to correct the financing
problem which has existed under the Defense Production
Act for a number of years, resulting in losses in the revolv
ing fund. The budget schedules reflecting the proposed
legislation are shown at the end of this chapter.
In 1975, the personnel and other costs for administrative
and custodial expenses are to be funded under appropria
tions to Federal Supply Service, Operating expenses and
Office of Preparedness, Salaries and expenses.

Appropriation to liquidate contract

........................
Grants of defense articles and services are made to assist
other countries to improve their defensive capabilities. As
other nations are increasingly able to rely on their own
resources, particularly manpower, the need for U.S. forces
abroad should decline and the likelihood of having to
commit U.S. combat forces in the future should decrease.
Most of the military items furnished under this program

through the U.S. military services, which are reimbursed
from this account when the items are delivered. Materiel
already on hand, but excess to the needs of U.S. forces
overseas, is used to meet the requirements of friendly
governments at no charge to the military assistance appro
priation except for the costs of rehabilitation and
transportation.
In the absence of the emergency authority requested
by the President to provide additional assistance to
Cambodia, the 1974 program reflects the drawdown of
$200 million in defense stocks under the authority of
section 506 of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as
amended. Beginning in 1975, military assistance to Laos is
provided from this appropriation rather than the appro
priations to the military departments.
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 ar
rangements are used: (1) direct U.S. Government credit,
and (2) commercial credit guaranteed by the Govern
ment. The 1975 budget request assumes enactment of a
legislative proposal decreasing the funding required to
guarantee commercial credits from 25% to 10% of the
principal amount of the credit. The 1975 request does not
contain funds for credits for Israel because of uncertainties
in the Middle East. A budget amendment will be trans
mitted if required.
An appropriation of $315 million is requested for 1975
to finance a credit sales program of $543 million. Of the
$543 million program, $253 million will be privately
financed and $25 million of the appropriation will be set
aside as a guarantee reserve for this private credit.
The administrative expenses related to this program
are funded from the military assistance appropriation.

This account provides funds (1) for emergency security
assistance for Israel in 1974 and (2) for the assessed
United States share of the first-year costs of the U.N.
Emergency Force in the Middle East. Although the
assistance for Israel is shown as long term credits, the
President has the authority to provide up to $1.5 billion
as grant assistance. Grants or credits in excess of $1.5
billion may be used only if the President determines it
to be important to our national interest that Israel receive
such amounts and reports the determination, the justifi
cation for the determination, and the terms of the addi
tional assistance to the Congress at least 20 days prior to
obligation of the funds.

Trust Funds
ADVANCES, FOREIGN MILITARY SALES
As authorized by sections 21 and 22 of the Foreign
Military Sales Act, 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

consequences of the war in Southeast Asia and in main
taining economic stability. They are used for urgent
requirements related to temporary shelter, means of
livelihood and medical care for refugees and war victims.
These efforts are a continuation of similar programs
carried on for some years. In addition, funds will provide
for the building of homes, hospitals, bridges, and schools.
Major efforts will be made to improve agricultural pro
duction, increase foreign exchange earnings, and meet the
increasing needs for trained and educated manpower in a
variety of fields.

Outlays______
.
.
The United States along with many other countries
provides funds to promote international monetary sta
bility through the International Monetary Fund and to
finance development lending and technical assistance
through the international development banks.
As a result of the two recent official changes in the par
value of the dollar, U.S. payments have been required in
addition to regular contributions, as called for by the
charters establishing the institutions, for maintenance of
value (MOV) of our contributions in terms of gold. The
United States has incurred total actual and contingent
MOV obligations of $3.8 billion.
The budgetary outlays to cover MOV obligations are
anticipated to be no more than $807 million and will be
spread over a period of many years. The outlays represent
MOV payments on U.S. paid-in capital subscriptions to

Continued
the banks. Nearly 80% of the MOV obligations cover
callable capital contributions, other contingent obligations
and IM F obligations, none of which should result in budget
outlays.
1. Investment in International Bank for Reconstruction
and Development.— The International Bank for Recon
struction and Development (IB R D ), often called the
World Bank, was created in 1944, and currently has 122
member countries. Total authorized capital stock, as of
June 30, 1973, all for ordinary capital loans, was $27
billion, of which $25.2 billion had been subscribed. Cumu
lative loan commitments as of June 30, 1973, totaled
$20.3 billion.
The Bretton Woods Agreements Act of July 31, 1945,
(Public Law 79-171, as amended) authorized the United
States to accept membership in the Bank. The U.S.
subscription is $6.5 billion, of which the paid-in portion is
10% or $647.3 million excluding MOV payments.
2. Investment in International Development Association.—
The International Development Association (IDA) was
established in 1960 and is a special fund affiliated with the
World Bank. ID A currently has 112 members.
Pursuant to authorization in the International Develop
ment Association Act, enacted June 30, 1960, the United
States joined the Association in August 1960. The current
U.S. share of the $5.3 billion in total subscriptions from all
contributors is $2.1 billion. An appropriation of $320
million is requested for 1975, as the final payment toward
that share.
Legislation authorizing the proposed U.S. payment was
signed into law on March 10, 1972. Maintenance of value
of $66 million is also due on this payment for which noninterest-bearing letters of credit will be provided from
funds already appropriated.
3. Investment in Inter-American Development Bank.—
The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) promotes
economic 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 the Inter-American Development Bank Act, the United
States joined the Bank in December 1959. The Bank’s
cumulative loan commitments, net of cancellations, as of
June 30, 1973, totaled $5.7 billion. Approximately 41%
of ID B lending has come from the Bank’s ordinary capital
resources and 59% from special fund resources.
Ordinary capital.— As of June 30, 1973, the total sub
scribed ordinary capital of the ID B was $5,139 million,
of which $838 million-equivalent was paid in. The U.S.
share was $1,958 million, including $299 million paid in.
A further $193.4 million, including $25 million in paid-in
form, was appropriated for the U.S. subscription to
ordinary capital in 1974. With this subscription, including
MOV payments already appropriated, the United States
will have discharged in full its undertakings with respect
to the 1970 replenishment of the Bank’s ordinary capital
resources.
Fund for special operations.— Contributions to the Fund
for Special Operations (FSO) prior to the current replenish
ment totaled $2,388 million of which the United States
contributed 75.4% or $1,800 million. In December 1972,
the United States initiated payments on its $1 billion, or
66%, share of a $1.5 billion replenishment of FSO re
sources. Payments appropriated to date, including an
appropriation of $225 million in 1974, total $500 million.
An appropriation request of $500 million, representing the
balance of funds due under the replenishment, is being
sought in 1975.
4.
Investment in Asian Development Bank.— The Asian
Development Bank (ADB) was established in 1966 to
foster economic growth in Asia by extending loans and
technical assistance to the developing member countries
of the region.
Ordinary capital.— On November 23, 1972, an increase
in the Bank’s authorized capital came into effect when the
required number of stockholders subscribed to their shares
of the capital increase. This action raised the Bank’s
total authorized capital stock from $1.1 billion to $2.7
billion, in current dollars. Because the United States had
not yet subscribed to its share of the capital increase,
the action reduced our proportionate share, currently
$241 million, of total subscribed capital from 19.9% to
9.9%. An appropriation for $120.6 million will be sought
in 1974 under proposed authorizing legislation for the first
of three equal installments of the U.S. subscription to the
capital increase in order to restore the equity position of
the United States in the Bank.
Special funds.— As of June 30, 1973, contributions by
other member countries to the A D B ’s special funds
resources amounted to $268 million. Legislation authoriz
ing a $100 million U.S. contribution to the special funds
was passed in March 1972, and a $50 million appropriation
was obtained in 1974. The balance of $50 million is being
sought in 1975. Under authorizing legislation proposed
for enactment, an additional $50 million will be sought in
1976 to permit full U.S. participation in a multilateral
replenishment of the Bank’s special funds. Total loan
commitments, net of cancellations, as of June 30, 1973,
from special funds, amounted to $246 million.
Investment in African Development Fund.— The African
Development Fund (ADF), a special fund associated
with the African Development Bank (A F D B ), was
established on June 30, 1973. Both AFD B members and
developed nonregional countries may subscribe to the
fund. A U.S. contribution of $15 million is being requested
in 1975 under proposed legislation.

The current dollar value of the U.S. quota in the
International Monetary Fund is $8,083 million, as a result
of an increase of $808 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. maintenance of value pay
ments to the IM F totaling $754 million. Of this amount,
$606 million represented U.S. obligations to maintain the
value of its currency subscription to the IM F, which was
three-fourths of the dollar value of the U.S. quota of
$7,274 million at the time of devaluation. A $202 million
increase in the dollar value of the remaining portion of the
U.S. quota, representing our subscription in gold to the
IM F, occurred automatically. In addition, payments of
$148 million were required to cover U.S. maintenance of
value obligations on outstanding drawings from the Fund
of $1,331 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 expenditure.

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 Monetary
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
occasions in the total amount of $2,155 million. The
United States has not yet participated in the loans ex
tended 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.

Outlays......... ..................................
Voluntary contributions are made to international
organizations and programs to encourage their develop
ment assistance efforts. The bulk of the request for United
Nations technical assistance and other programs is for
the United Nations Development Program, which finances
most technical assistance and capital project feasibility
studies undertaken within the United Nations system.
Other major contributions are made to the United Nations
Children’s Fund and the United Nations Relief and Works
Agency for Arab refugees.
The second annual contribution will be made in 1975
to the United Nations Environment Fund, established in
1973, to support and coordinate international environ
mental programs.
Grants and loans are made to the Indus Basin develop
ment fund associated with the World Bank. This fund,
to which a consortium of donors contributes, finances a
construction program designed to insure an equitable
division of the waters of the Indus Basin between India
and Pakistan. It is supplementing irrigation and helping
provide arable land for over 50 million people in the area.
Funds are called for from donor nations only as needed
to cover disbursement needs.

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, particular^ in
agriculture, education, health, and economic integration.
In order to stimulate economic activity in the region, this
administration has made A.I.D. alliance loan dollars,
previously restricted to U.S. procurement, eligible for
procurement of goods and services throughout Latin
America. Beginning in 1974 this activity will be financed
from the Development Loans—revolving fund.

Outlays.
Development loans are made to friendly developing
countries in order to promote their economic develop
ment. These loans are repayable in U.S. dollars at an
interest rate of not less than 3% per annum. Loan repay

ments are to begin not later than 10 years following the
date on which the funds are lent. During the initial 10year period the rates of interest are not to be lower than
2% per annum.
Before a loan is made, the Agency for International
Development must take into account (1) whether fi
nancing 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, in
cluding 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 con
sistency of the activity with, and its relationship to,
other development activities being undertaken or planned,
and its contribution to realistic long-range objectives,
(5) the extent to which the recipient country is demon
strating 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 International Development.
Beginning in 1974 the former Alliance for Progress—
development loans schedule is merged with the Develop
ment Loans—revolving fund.
Also, beginning in 1974 budget authority for both
loans and grants for development assistance will be
included in the schedule Functional Development Assist
ance Program. The amounts of budget authority pro
gramed for loans will be advanced to the Development
Loans—revolving fund for obligation.

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 corpora
tion was abolished and its functions were transferred,
effective November 3, 1961, to the Agency for Interna
tional Development. Subsequent to that date, the fund has
remained open for the purpose of liquidating outstanding
obligations. As of June 30, 1973, the undisbursed loan
agreements amounted to $1.2 million. It is estimated that
this balance will be fully disbursed in 1974.
Loan repayments and interest earned totaled $119.0
million in 1973 and are expected to total $115.9 million
in 1974 and $118.7 million in 1975.

The housing guaranty fund includes the Latin American
and worldwide housing guaranty programs. The objectives
of these programs are to assist developing countries in
the formulation of housing policies, in the development
of housing institutions, in projects for lower income
groups and on a selective basis, in high priority specific
projects including disaster assistance.
The Foreign Assistance Act of 1969 continued available
the $550 million issuing authority for the Latin American
housing guaranty program, and also extended the pro
gram to include Africa and Asia under worldwide housing
authority. The issuing authority under the worldwide
housing guaranty program was increased from $155.1
million to $230.1 million in 1972, and to $330.1 million
in 1974.
Consistent with the intent of Congress that the housing
programs be totally self-supporting, the costs of adminis

The Foreign Assistance Act of 1969 established the
Inter-American Social Development Institute, now called
the Inter-American Foundation. Financing has been pro
vided through the transfer of $50 million from the Agency
for International Development. A recent agreement with
the Inter-American Development Bank will also permit
the Foundation to use some of the local currency holdings
of the Social Progress Trust Fund.
The most important characteristics of the programs are:
responsiveness to Latin American and Caribbean initia
tives; innovation and replicability; support for change in
social structures; direct impact on people's lives; and sup
port for Latin American and Caribbean institutions. The
Foundation’s programs support projects involving social
change as well as the dissemination of information
relating to these projects.

activity, and funds were appropriated to the receiving
agencies to continue these activities.
2. Community action operations.— Funding for these
activities will be dependent on State and local decisions
in 1975.
In 1974, the Native American program was delegated to
HEW. Funds were appropriated to H EW to continue the
program and are included in that Agency’s 1975 request.
In 1973, obligations for this program in OEO were $23.1
million.
In 1975 funds to cover administrative costs associated
with the phaseout of all grants funded under community
action operations are requested for appropriation to
HEW.
3. Health and nutrition.— Early in 1974 health and re
lated projects, excluding the emergency food and medical
services program, were delegated to HEW.
During 1973, $28.6 million was obligated by OEO for
the emergency food and medical services program. In
1974, funds will be made available for activities consistent
with the statutory objectives of this program.
4. Migrants and seasonal farmworkers.— Migrant and
seasonal farmworker programs were delegated to the De
partment of Labor early in 1974.
5. 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 similar objectives
as programs funded through the Office of Minority
Business Enterprise (OMBE). Legislation has been sub
mitted to authorize the operation of the community eco
nomic development programs in OMBE. This consolida
tion of effort will increase the effectiveness of Federal
programs designed to bring minority entrepreneurs into
the mainstream of economic life. To continue this activity,
$39.3 million is requested for appropriation to OMBE in
1975.
6. Legal services.— The 1975 estimate of $71.5 million
for this program is for appropriation to HEW for payment
to the proposed Legal Services Corporation. The estimate
is sufficient to provide initial capital for the Corporation.
7. General support.— This activity provides supportive
administration for the OEO programs described above.
Included in the 1975 request for H EW is $33 million to
insure the orderly phaseout of outstanding grants and
contracts of discontinued activities.
Comparable amounts for 1973 ($216,900) are included above.

Legislation has been proposed to amend title III of the
Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended. The legisla
tion would (1) eliminate the borrowing authority financing
mechanism presently under the act; (2) authorize the
Secretary of the Treasury to cancel the outstanding
balance of all unpaid notes issued by authorized Govern
ment agencies to the Secretary pursuant to the borrowing
authority, together with the unpaid interest on such notes;
(3) require any cash balances remaining on June 30, 1974,
in the borrowing authority, and any funds received on
transactions entered into to be covered into the Treasury
as miscellaneous receipts, and (4) provide authority for
obtaining appropriations to carry out the purposes of
sections 302 and 303 of the Defense Production Act.

1. Investment in Asian Development Bank.— Ordinary
capital.— Legislation now pending before the Congress
would authorize a further U.S. subscription to the ordinary
capital of the AD B of $361.9 million. When authorizing
legislation is approved, three annual installments of $120.6
million each will be sought, beginning in 1974. Each in
stallment of $120.6 million will consist of $24.1 million
paid-in capital and $96.5 million callable capital. Of the
paid-in portion, $9.6 million will be provided in cash and
$14.5 million under letter of credit procedures for later
disbursement.
2. Investment in African Development Fund..— An au
thorization bill for U.S. membership in the African De
velopment Fund (AFDF), with a contribution of $15
million for a three-year period, is pending in the Congress.
Upon approval of authorizing legislation, an appropriation
request for $15 million will be transmitted for 1975. The
AFD F was established in 1973 within the framework of the
African Development Bank (AFDB), and the United
States is eligible to become an original member if it joins by
December 31, 1974. Contributions to the AFDF from
AFDB members and from industrialized countries will
be used to make concessional loans to African countries.

The Service conducts research to provide the means
for a safer, more economical, and more abundant supply
of agricultural products for the Nation. The Service
uses coordinated, interdisciplinary approaches to perform
basic and applied research in the fields of livestock, plants,
soil, water, and air resources, marketing and use of
agricultural products, food and nutrition, consumer
services, and agricultural health hazards. The programs
financed from this appropriation are described below.
1. Research on animal production.— Research is con
ducted to improve livestock productivity (including
poultry) through improved breeding, feeding, and manage
ment practices and to develop methods for controlling
diseases, parasites, and insect pests affecting them. The
increase requested for 1975 would provide for research to
reduce the cost of beef, sheep, and swine production.
2. Research on plant production.— Research is conducted
to improve plant productivity (including ornamentals,
trees, turf, tropical and subtropical crops) through im
proved varieties of food, feed, fiber, and other plants;
develop new crop resources; and improve crop production
practices, including methods to control plant disease,
nematodes, insects, and weeds. The increase requested
for 1975 would provide for research to reduce the vulner
ability of field crops to diseases and insects, research on
the nutrition of crops and for the development of im
proved oil crops for domestic uses and exports.
3. Research on the m e and improvement oj soil, water,
and air.— Research is conducted to improve the manage
ment of natural resources, including investigations to
improve soil and water management, irrigation, and
conservation practices, and to determine the relation of
soil types and water to plant, animal, and human nutri
tion. The research includes studies on hydrologic problems
of agricultural watershed and the application of remote
sensing techniques in meeting agricultural problems.
Research is also conducted on agricultural pollution
problems such as protection of plants, animals, and na
tural resources from harmful effects of soil, water, and
air pollutants, and ways to minimize and utilize industry
processing wastes of agricultural commodities. The in
crease requested for 1975 would provide for research on
the control of water erosion and sedimentation.
4. Research on marketing, use and effects of agricultural
products.— Research is conducted to develop new and
improved foods, feeds, fabrics, and industrial products
ana processes for agricultural commodities for domestic
and foreign markets. Research is conducted on marketing
of agricultural products. Studies concern the processing,
transportation, storage, wholesaling and retailing of
products, to reduce the costs of marketing, to maintain
product quality, and to reduce losses from waste and
spoilage.
Research is conducted on human nutritional require
ments, composition, and nutritive value of food needed
for consumers and for Federal, State, and local agencies
administering food and nutrition programs.
Research is conducted on problems of human health
and safety. Studies concern developing means to insure
food and feed supplies and products free from toxic or
potentially dangerous residues from agricultural sources
and processing operations, harmful chemicals, micro
organisms, and from naturally occurring toxins. The re
search conducted also includes studies concerning means
to control insect pests of man and his belongings; prevent
transmission of animal diseases and parasites to man;
reduce the hazards to human life resulting from pesticide
residues, toxic molds, tobacco, and other causes; and,
develop technology for the detection and destruction of
illicit growth of narcotic-producing plants.
Research is conducted on consumer services to measure
family use of resources, to identify economic problems
of families; and to provide information on fabric per
formance and the use and care of clothing and house
hold articles by consumers.
Research on housing is conducted to provide knowledge
and technology to help bring about improved designs,
material, and construction methods for both low-cost
renovation and new construction of rural housing suitable
for low-to-moderate-income rural residents.
The increase requested for 1975 would provide for re
search on the nutrient composition of foods, food and
nutrition research, and to plan and monitor a food con
sumption and dietary levels survey.
5. Construction of facilities.— The 1975 estimates pro
vide for an increase of $6,420 thousand for construction
of: (1) Sewage treatment facilities at Beltsville, Md., and
(2) an abattoir, a meat research laboratory, and an
engineering laboratory at Clay Center, Nebr.
6. Contingencies.— $1 million is available to meet urgent
needs that develop unexpectedly during the year when
such needs cannot be met by redirection of resources from
other projects.

Foreign currencies which the Treasury Department
determines to be excess to the normal requirements of the
United States are used for expenses of carrying out
programs of the Department of Agriculture under the
Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act of
1954, as amended. Kesearch which is important to Amer
ican agriculture and supplements our domestic programs
is carried on through agreements negotiated with institu
tions and organizations in foreign countries. For example,
research is conducted on exotic insect pests and diseases
of plants and animals which cannot be done in the United
States. Specialized projects provide for the translation and
dissemination of foreign language scientific publications.
The increase proposed in 1975 would be used to purchase
foreign currencies in those countries determined to be
excess to the normal requirements of the United States to
expand overseas research of value to U.S. agriculture.

1 Includes capital outlay as follow s: 1973, $1,226 thousand: 1974, $1,263 thou
sand; and 1975, $4,128 thousand.
The major objectives of the Service are (1) to inspect
meat and poultry products intended for human consump
tion to make sure they are wholesome and labeled accord
ing to law, and (2) to protect the animal and plant
resources of the Nation from destructive pests and diseases.
1. Meat and -poultry inspection.— Federal inspection is
required for all meat, poultry, and processed products
moving in interstate and foreign commerce. All meat and
poultry moving in intrastate commerce must be federally
inspected or inspected by States with inspection systems
meeting Federal standards. The Federal program also
provides financial and technical assistance to States for
improving the quality of their inspection programs.
Extensive laboratory analyses are conducted for detection
of chemical residues, antibiotics and other additives.
The increase in the 1975 estimates provides for expan
sion of inspection services for the increasing number of
plants requiring Federal inspection, additional funding to
meet the Federal share of increased State program costs,
and additional costs resulting from the reclassification of
slaughter inspectors.
The volume of inspections and examinations is indicated
by examples given in the following table:

2. Plant disease and pest control.— Programs are de
signed to keep out of this country by inspection at ports
of entry those insects, plant diseases, nematodes, and other
pests which would be harmful to agriculture. Cooperative
programs are conducted to eradicate or prevent the
spread to uninfested areas of certain plant pests which
are established in this country. The 1975 estimates
propose an increase to analyze the effectiveness of a boll
weevil elimination program.
The level of activities for plant pest control is shown by
the selected examples that follow:

vided under this appropriation, $1.5 million is appor
conducted to keep communicable diseases of foreign
tioned for use pursuant to section 3679 of the Revised
origin from entering this country and to prevent the
spread of disease through interstate shipments of live Statutes, as amended, for the control of outbreaks of
stock or distribution of impure or impotent veterinary insects, plant diseases, and animal diseases to the extent
biologies. In cooperation with States, other programs are necessary to meet emergency conditions.
6. Reimbursement program.— Reimbursements include
directed at the control and eradication of livestock dis
amounts
for overtime work performed in meat and poultry
eases present in this country. The animal welfare program
is concerned with the humane care and handling of processing plants, and overtime and travel performed in
connection with import-export inspection services and
approximately 40 million warmblooded animals. The 1975
cooperative programs with other Federal agencies.
estimates propose increases for a cooperative screwworm

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 execution of the contract. An additional $100 thou
sand will be paid to the Department upon award of an
architect-engineering 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
appropriated in 1970 for construction of the new station.
Establishment of a new animal import center to replace
the Clifton quarantine station has been delayed because
the Department has been unable to acquire a suitable
site in the New York-New Jersey port area.

The Service administers funds for payments and grants
to State agricultural experiment stations and other
eligible institutions for the support of research in agri
culture, the rural home, the rural community, and forestry.
This administration involves supervision of the funds,
and close advisory relations with the State agricultural
experiment stations, schools of forestry, and other insti
tutions 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 Act, and for penalty mail.— 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 im
provements in the rural home and rural community. The
increase requested for fiscal year 1975 will provide for
increased costs of conducting research.
Funds to cover the cost of penalty mailings for State
agricultural experiment station directors are provided
under this appropriation. The decrease requested reflects
nonrecurring penalty mail costs.
2. Grants for cooperative forestry research.— These grants
are allocated to land-grant colleges or agricultural ex
periment 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. The increase requested for fiscal year 1975 will
provide for increased costs of conducting research.
3. Contracts and grants for 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
conduct of such research. Every competitive research
proposal selected for funding must be evaluated and
classified as outstanding and appropriate to the needs of
the designated problem area. A portion of the special
grant funds is utilized to support research on special
problems of joint concern to the USDA and to the States.
The balance of the special grant funds is earmarked for
the land-grant colleges of 1890 and Tuskegee Institute.
The increase requested for fiscal year 1975 will provide
for increased research on beef and pork production,
soybeans, pest management, environmental quality, and
food and nutrition, and also for the increased cost of
conducting research at the colleges established under the
Second Morrill Act of 1890 and Tuskegee Institute.
5. Funds for rural development research.— Grants under
the Rural Development Act of 1972 are allocated to landgrant colleges and universities of the 50 States and Puerto
Rico, to conduct pilot research programs in support of the
development of rural areas. Funds are requested for fiscal
year 1975 to support pilot research programs initiated in
fiscal year 1974.
6. Federal administration.— A coordinating and review
staff is maintained to examine research projects and assist
State institutions and Federal agencies. The reimbursable
program consists of miscellaneous services to other ac
counts; funds to train foreign participants in this coun
try— Agency for International Development; and the
Current Research Information System which provides
information on research projects, status of the research,
and fund resources for research programs of the State
agricultural experiment stations and other institutions.
The planned distribution of the funds requested for
1975 compared with 1974 is as follows (in thousands of
dollars):

Act, and for penalty mail:

The National Agricultural Library, cooperating jointly
with the two other national libraries— the Library of
Congress and the National Library of Medicine— provides
coverage and servicing of worldwide publications in the

agricultural, chemical, and biological sciences. It serves
the research, extension, regulatory, and other programs
of the Department and State agricultural agencies. Since
the Library’s primary purpose is to provide for research
needs, it has acquired and preserved what is considered
to be the most exhaustive body of literature available on
all phases of agriculture and the allied sciences— botany,
chemistry, animal industry, veterinary medicine, biology,
agricultural engineering, rural sociology, forestry, ento
mology, food and nutrition, soils and fertilizers, and the
marketing, transportation, and other economic aspects of
agricultural products. Publications are currently acquired
from more than 150 governments and jurisdictional enti
ties in some 50 different languages. In addition, printed
information of agricultural societies, organizations and
cooperatives, and general material in the field of agricul
ture are collected and made available for use.
Information contained in the agricultural literature is
disseminated through bibliographies, reference services,
loans and photocopies to agricultural colleges and uni
versities, research institutions, Government agencies,
agricultural associations, industry, individual scientists,
farmers, and the general public in every part of the world.
During 1973, 252,435 separate issues of periodicals were
added to the collection by purchase, gift, and exchange.
During the same period, 149,498 loans or photocopies of
books and periodicals were made and 103,050 inquiries
handled.
The increase proposed would be used to continue to
develop or maintain a comprehensive collection of books
and journals in agriculture and related specialized sub
ject areas through the aquisition or preservation pro
grams which are aimed at providing more complete and
timely agricultural information to users.

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, adminis
trators, and others concerned with developing and ad
ministering agricultural programs. Further, data provided
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 commodi
ties; 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. Cooperative
arrangements with State agencies provide much addi
tional State and county data; Federal funds are not
available for collection and publication of these data.
During 1973 cooperating States expended an estimated
$4 million of their own funds on such associated State
programs.

work performed under cooperative arrangements, follows:

The increases requested in fiscal year 1975 will be used
to conduct complete multiple frame cattle and hog surveys
and an export sales program.
2. Statistical research and service.— Departmental clear
ance and review.— This work includes the review, coordina
tion, and monitoring of data gathering surveys conducted
by the Department. This involves (1) the review of all
proposed statistical forms and survey plans requiring
Office of Management and Budget clearance in accordance
with the Federal Reports Act of 1942, and (2) coordina
tion of all interdepartment and intradepartment programs
for the improvement of agricultural statistics and related
data.
Improvement of crop and livestock estimates.— This re
search is devoted primarily to improving statistical
methods and techniques for producing agricultural statis
tics with a high degree of accuracy at a minimum cost.
This work is in support of the Statistical Reporting
Service’s long-range program for improving crop and
livestock estimates, and is directed toward developing
better sampling, yield forecasting, and survey techniques

for the agency. Current research activities include com
piling and maintaining lists of farms (farm directory);
developing new samplmg techniques combining lists of
farms and aerial photographs with area sampling frames;
constructing mathematical models for forecasting crop
yields from objective counts and measurements of plant
characteristics; and reducing reporting and other non
sampling errors by improving questionnaire design, and
by devising better field, editing and processing procedures.
These research studies are tested by pilot surveys under
actual operating conditions, and then, if indicated, placed
into operation.

The major objectives of the Commodity Exchange
Authority, m the enforcement of the Commodity Exchange
Act, are to protect the price and hedging services of the
commodity futures markets. These services are widely
used by farmers, merchandisers, and processors. T o carry
out its enforcement objectives, the Commodity Exchange
Authority works to maintain fair trading practices and
competitive pricing on commodity exchanges, and to
prevent price manipulation, cheating, fraud, and abusive
acts and practices in commodity transactions. Enforce
ment of the act includes supervision of 21 commodity
exchanges designated as contract markets, approximately
260 brokerage firms registered as futures commission
merchants, and about 1,400 registered floor brokers
operating on the exchanges.
For the fourth consecutive year, volume of futures
trading in regulated agricultural commodities reached an
all-time record. The increase over last year’s figure was
41.7%. Futures transactions during the year ending
June 30, 1973, for 21 commodities totaled 17.8 million
contracts and were valued at an estimated $268.3 billion.
Comparable figures for 1 year earlier were 12.6 million
contracts valued at $148.0 billion. In all, volume increased
during fiscal 1973 for two-thirds of the regulated commodi
ties that were actively traded in the previous year. Four
commodities— com, cattle, live hogs, and shell eggs— re
corded all-time highs.
Grain markets.— Activity in the grain markets increased
143% this year to 5.6 million contracts or about 31% of
the total volume for all regulated commodities. In the
previous year, grain trades of 2.3 million contracts repre
sented 18% of the gear’s volume. Corn futures, posting a
record high of 3.5 million contracts, ranked second only to
soybeans in market activity. The previous record of 2.7
million contracts was set in fiscal year 1971. In the wheat
market, number of transactions climbed from .7 million
contracts in fiscal 1972 to 1.9 million this year. This
represented the highest level of trading since fiscal year
1967 when 2.1 million transactions occurred. At the Board
of Trade of Kansas City, Mo., Inc., volume in wheat set
a record high of .4 million contracts traded, nearly double
the previous record of fiscal year 1968. Trading in oats
also gained, reversing its downtrend of prior years with a
96% increase in volume.
Livestock complex.— In the livestock and livestock
product commodities, cattle and live hog futures set
volume records of 2.1 and .8 million contracts, respectively.
With the 119.8% increase in trading activity, volume m
the cattle market surpassed that of the consistently high
pork belly futures for the first time. Trading in bellies
decreased about 20% from last year’s 2 million contracts.
In all, livestock and livestock product trades accounted
for 26.8% of the year’s volume, as compared to the 27%
of 1 year earlier.
Soybean complex.— Trading in soybeans and soybean
products registered a net gain of 4.7%. The 6.1 mil
lion contracts traded in these commodities accounted for
34% of this year’s record volume as compared to 46.2%

of last year’s. Volume in soybeans, still the most active
commodity, was down 6% from last year’s record 3.96
million contracts. The 1.64 million trades in soybean oil
represented an increase of 22% over volume in fiscal year
1972. This was just short of the futures high of 1.67
million contracts traded during fiscal year 1970. Volume
in soybean meal was up 49% from last year’s figure.
Other markets.— Shell eggs and potatoes more than
doubled their trading volume of the previous year. The
previous record for volume in shell eggs set in fiscal year
1970 was exceeded by the .66 million transactions this
year. Volume in the cotton futures market continued to
gain this year. The .434 million transactions represent
an increase of 6% over last year’s .411 million contracts.
Trading in wool also became more active this last year.
Total volume for fiscal year 1973 was 4,811 contracts as
compared to 3,157 for fiscal year 1972. Coconut oil,
trading for the first time this year, had a volume of 6,150
contracts.
1. Registration and auditing of brokerage houses.— This
consists of (a) protection of customers’ funds through the
establishment and enforcement of minimum financial
standards for futures commission merchants and periodic
audits of their books and records, and (b) annual registra
tion of futures commission merchants and floor brokers.

Farmer Cooperative Service conducts research, advises
directly with cooperative leaders and others, promotes
cooperative organization and development through other
Federal and State agencies, and publishes reports,
“ News for Farmer Cooperatives,” and other educational
material. This work is aimed (i) to help farmers get
better prices for their products and reduce operating
expenses, (2) to help rural and small-town residents
use cooperatives to develop rural resources, and (3) to
help all Americans understand the work of these coop
eratives.
In fiscal year 1975, FCS plans to adjust its resources to
emphasize work on the following new programs: 1.
coordination in the pork industry, 2. coordinated trans
portation and distribution system for cooperatives,
3. cooperative programs for acquiring farm inputs, and
4. agricultural bargaining.

1 Includes capital outlay as follows: 1973. $13 thousand; 1974, $13 thousand;
1975, $13 thousand.
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 live
stock, meat, and poultry, so as to bring to farmers and
ranchers the true market value of their livestock and
poultry. Consumers and 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
affect meat and poultry prices.
The increase for 1975 will be used to expand the Depart
ment’s activities in the areas of (1) scale accuracy and
weighing of livestock and meat, and (2) custom feedlot
marketing and custom feeding by packers and livestock
sales by packers to competitor buyers.

The Foreign Agricultural Service helps American agri
culture 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 maintains a worldwide agricultural
intelligence and reporting service that enables American
agriculture to carry out its production, policies, and pro
grams 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.
(b) The Service helps to develop foreign markets for
U.S. farm products through continuous efforts to remove
international trade barriers that inhibit export sales and
through effective market promotion under special export
programs.
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
reported 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 sig
natory 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
programs 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 attachis.— The Service maintains agricul
tural attaches at 63 foreign posts to assist in the develop
ment 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 accessibility for U.S. farm
products. They carry out a comprehensive schedule of
reporting foreign agricultural production, marketing, and
trade policy developments to keep U.S. agriculture,
industry, and Government currently informed.
3.
Foreign marketing.— (a) General sales manager.—
Public Law 480 program.— The Service conducts programs
which facilitate the sale of agricultural commodities for
dollars on a long-term credit basis and for the donation of
agricultural commodities to foreign governments, inter
governmental and voluntary agencies and the world food
programs in some 100 countries. These programs are
authorized by titles I and II of the Agricultural Trade
Development and Assistance Act of 1954, as amended
(Public Law 480).
Commercial credit and barter programs.— The Service
conducts the CCC export credit sales program under
authority of the Corporation’s charter authority and
section 4 of the Food for Peace Act (7 U.S.C. 1707a).
This is a commercial program under which U.S. agri
cultural commodities from private stocks are financed for
export up to a maximum credit period of 3 years. For all
transactions there is required an irrevocable letter of
credit from an acceptable foreign or U.S. bank assuring
payment in dollars, with interest at rates comparable to
private U.S. commercial rates. The Service also has the
authority to conduct, under the CCC Charter Act, and the
Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act of
1954, barter transactions which use agricultural exports to
generate the funds to pay for goods and services which
U.S. Government agencies would otherwise buy abroad
with dollars. Exports are restricted to areas where they
will help maintain or increase the U.S. share of markets,
thereby benefiting the balance of payments. The agri
cultural commodities may be from private stocks or
from those acquired by CCC in its price support operations
and purchased by private exporters for unrestricted use.
The barter program was temporarily suspended at the
end of fiscal year 1973. The 1975 program will consist of
working off contracts entered into prior to June 30, 1973.
Commodity exports.— The Service administers programs
to facilitate and expand the commercial export sales of
privately owned and Commodity Credit Corporation
(CCC) owned agricultural commodities, and develops
pricing policies and export payment rates for applicable
commodities. The Service also carries out the domestic
operations to implement the Wheat Trade Convention of
the International Wheat Agreement. These programs are
authorized by the CCC Charter Act, and the Agricultural
Act of 1949, 1964, and 1970, as amended.
(b) Market development.— The Service administers pro
grams concerned with the development of foreign markets
for agricultural products of the United States, and co
ordinates interagency participation and action essential
to administration of these programs. These functions
involve :
Providing foreign tradesmen with services that are
necessary to build and maintain markets for U.S. agri
cultural products.
Developing a system of worldwide promotional pro
grams, on a commodity-by-commodity basis, in coopera
tion with national organizations of producers, processors,
and exporters, and providing overall guidance to these
organizations in carrying out cooperative programs.
Developing, operating, and evaluating a worldwide sys

Sales agreements specify particular uses, and in those
entered into after December 31, 1964, at least 20% of the
foreign currencies are required to be subject to the appro
priation process, with certain exceptions. 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 loans 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 least 75% 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’s spe
cial activities and the remaining $4 million will be applied
against other amounts due, with a balance of $23 million
remaining unpaid as of June 30, 1975.
From mception through December 31, 1971, local cur
rency sales agreements were signed with 55 countries. They
covered sales of commodities at an export market value of
$13 billion. Major items were wheat, cotton, fats and oils,
rice, and feed grains. Program costs incurred after Decem
ber 31, 1971, represent financing of shipments made under
agreements signed prior to January 1, 1972.

Payments are in dollars with interest at rates not less
than the minimum required by section 201 of the Foreign
Assistance Act of 1961, as amended, for loans made under
that section. Payments are made in reasonable annual
amounts over periods of not to exceed 20 years from the
date of last delivery in each calendar year under the agree
ment, except that the first annual payment may be de
ferred for a period of not more than 2 years after such date
of last delivery. Interest is computed from the date of such
last delivery. As payments are received each year, they
are applied against current costs to reduce the appropria
tion request. Private trade agreements must provide for
projects to establish improved storage or marketing
facilities or otherwise encourage private economic enter
prise in friendly countries.
Credit terms for convertible foreign currency credit
sales are to be no less favorable to the United States than
those for development loans made under section 201 of the
Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended, which author
ized loans to be made on the basis of payment in 40 years
with a 10-year grace period. Dollar payments, when re
ceived, will also be applied to reduce appropriation re
quests.
Total agreements made since inception to June 30, 1973,
amount to $3,826.8 million cost value, including ocean
freight for shipment on U.S. ships. Major commodities are
wheat, cotton, oils, rice, and feed grains. Payments for
the period amount to $649.2 million, of which $453.8
million was applied to principal and $195.4 million to
interest.

self-help activities designed to alleviate the causes for the
need for such aid.
Through December 31, 1973, appropriations totaling
$7,300 million were authorized. No programs of assistance
can be entered into after December 31, 1977, 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
programs of assistance undertaken under this title in the
preceding calendar year have called or will call for appro
priations in amounts less than authorized during the
preceding year. Any incidental sales proceeds and proceeds
from loss, damage, and other claims are applied against
Commodity Credit Corporation costs to reflect a reduction

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 Prairie Village and Minne
apolis play an important role in administering support
programs and the field operations stemming from pro
ducer loan and purchase agreements, inventory manage
ments, and merchandising activities.
The State committees are in general charge of all
programs 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.
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 A ct 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 commodity support and related programs.
In order to improve program management as well as
provide information to county offices to improve services
to farmers, ASCS is introducing a new A D P and com
munications system into its operation. This involves in
stalling individual terminals in county offices and remote
batch terminals in the field offices and Washington. A
prepilot operation is planned to begin in 1975. (Further
details may be found under the program narrative for
the Commodity Credit Corporation Fund, Nonadministrative Expenses.)
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)
developing program regulations and procedures; (b) hold
ing meetings with employees and producers to discuss
new programs or changes in existing programs; (c) col
lecting and compiling basic data for individual farms;
(d) establishing individual farm allotments, bases and
yields; (e) establishing proportionate shares for sugar
farms when necessary; (f) notifying producers of allot
ments, proportionate shares, productivity indexes and
payment rates; (g) determining farm marketing alloca
tions; (h) handling appeals; (i) conducting referendums
and certifying results; (j) checking' compliance with
acreage allotments and use of set-aside acres; (k) develop
ing pooling agreements under which several farmers work
jointly to solve a common conservation problem which
cannot be solved by individual action; (1) issuing market
ing cards so that production from the allotted acreage
can be marketed without penalty; (m) processing pro
ducer 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
commodities; and (d) accounting for loans and commodi
ties. The value of the commodities owned by CCC on
June 30, 1973, was about $479 million.

the major programs financed from this account is set

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 acreage
allotments are established for producers when necessary
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.
The increase of $1.7 million proposed for 1975 is required
to provide necessary funds to complete payments on the
1973 crop, and to make payments on the 1974 crop to eligible
producers in fiscal year 1975.
Tax collections from imports of sugar exceed total
obligations by $713.5 million for fiscal years 1938 through
1973.

This program is designed to encourage conservation
by sharing with farmers, ranchers, and woodland owners
the cost of carrying out approved soil- and water-conserving practices, including related wildlife-conserving
practices and water, air, and land pollution-abatement
practices which farmers generally would not perform
to the needed extent with 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.
Conservation measures offered include those primarily
designed to establish permanent protective cover, improve
and protect established vegetative cover, conserve and
dispose of water, establish temporary vegetative cover,
temporarily protect soil from wind and water erosion,
provide wildlife benefits, and abate agriculture-related
pollution.
The following and other practices were installed under
the 1972 program on almost 0.7 million farms:

Program objectives and priorities.— The new national
program would provide for three groups of practices, or
functions, representing the three basic program objectives:
(1) Soil and water conservation, (2) timber incentives,
and (3) recreation and wildlife. These are discussed below.
1. Soil and water conservation.— The primary objective of
soil and water conservation would be to encourage farmers
and ranchers to carry out whole-farm, long-term con
servation plans that would emphasize conservation benefits
of national concern, and achieve desirable land-use
adjustments.
Whole-farm conservation plans, developed with SCS
assistance and approved by soil and water conservation
districts, will be the basis for long-term contracts. While
this requirement would not necessarily apply to costsharing for timber production, recreation or wildlife
practices, or to cost-share funds set aside specifically for
annual contracts assistance provided for such practices
will be on the basis that they are needed, feasible and
would be harmonious elements of a soil and water con
servation plan for the operating unit.
It is recognized that whole-farm conservation plans and
long-term contracts also will contain essential soil and
water conservation practices that are profitable for farmers
to carry out without cost-sharing.
The emphasis on long-term cost-sharing based on wholefarm plans, approved by soil and water conservation
districts, would provide incentives for increased participa
tion in the SCS technical assistance program. Many farm
conservation plans would be changed and updated to
facilitate this participation, and other farmers and ranchers
heretofore nonparticipants in the technical assistance
program would be expected to request SCS planning
assistance. Annual program funding levels for long-term
contracts would be set at “ not less than” levels and funds
could not be reallocated to other purposes without the
specific approval of the Secretary.
2. Timber incentives.— Among the objectives of costsharing for timber production is the increased supply of
sawtimber on nonmdustrial private lands. Forests are
among the best of vegetative covers for preventing soil
erosion and for enhancing recreation opportunities and
wildlife habitats. Forest land management plans would be
emphasized for this program.
Cost-share payments for annual (nonenduring) practices
and other crop production increasing practices that are
otherwise profitable to the landowner would be eliminated.
Annual program funding levels for timber incentives
would be set at “ not less than” levels and could not be
reallocated to other purposes without the specific ap
proval of the Secretary.
3. Recreation and wildlife.— The primary objective of
cost-sharing for recreation and wildlife would be for pre
serving wetlands for increasing migratory and other water
fowl populations. Recreation and wildlife practices would
continue to be supported, but on a somewhat lower
priority basis than at present. The USDA water bank
program would be superseded by the practices under this
objective. Contracts would all be multiyear contracts.
4. Emergency measures.— $10 million of the cost-share
funds available each year for cost-share contracts would
be reserved for use in designated emergency areas to
finance restoration of damage to agricultural lands
caused by natural disaster. Terms and conditions would
be similar to those presently applied in the ASCS emer
gency conservation measures program.

The purposes of this program are to preserve, restore,
and improve the wetlands of the Nation, and thereby to
conserve surface waters, to preserve and improve habitat
for migratory waterfowl and other wildlife resources, to
reduce runoff, soil and wind erosion, and contribute to
improved water quality and reduce stream sedimenta
tion, 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 compre
hensive 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 charac
ter 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.

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 gov
ernmental agencies for use in acquiring cropland for per
manent 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 con
ditions and costs under agreements entered into with
producers.

Under this program the Department makes indemnifica
tion payments to dairy farmers, manufacturers of dairy
products, and beekeepers.
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 indemnifica
tion 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 pesticides near or adjacent to the
property on which the beehives of such beekeepers were
located.
The Agriculture and Consumer Protection Act of 1973
extended the authority for making indemnity payments
to dairy farmers and to manufacturers of dairy products
to June 30, 1977, and to beekeepers to December 31, 1977.
That act also authorizes indemnity payments on dairy
cows producing contaminated milk.

This appropriation provides special funds for sharing
the cost of emergency conservation measures to deal with
cases of severe damage to farm and range-lands resulting
from natural disasters. The criteria under which assistance
may be made available are set forth in the Soil Conserva
tion and Domestic Allotment Act (16 U.S.C. 590(h)).
Funds are allocated for use only in those counties
designated by the Secretary of Agriculture as disaster
counties. Assistance is made available to treat new con
servation problems which (1) if not treated will impair or
endanger the land, (2) materially affect the productive
capacity of the land, (3) represent damage which is unusual
in character and, except for wind erosion, is not the type
which would recur frequently in the same area, and (4)
will be so costly to rehabilitate that Federal assistance is
or will be required to return the land to productive agri
cultural use.
Under the 1973 program cost-sharing assistance is
being provided to treat farmlands damaged by flood,
tornado, hurricane, freeze, and fire. As of August 31, 1973,
there were 521 counties in 33 States where assistance was
being provided.

Long-range agreements were approved with farmers
and ranchers from 1963 to 1967 to make changes from
their past cropping systems and land uses to other incomeproducing, public benefit uses.
The agreements, not to exceed 10 years, provide for
payments, the furnishing of materials and services, and
other assistance to farmers. In return, farmers change
the land-use and install and maintain conservation
pract ces. Adjustment payments were authorized to be
made either upon approval of the agreement or on an
annual installment basis. Land treatment practice pay
ments are made after the practice is installed.
The law places a limit of $10 million on payments made
in a calendar year under signed agreements.

Outlays_____________ ____________
The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation, a wholly
owned Government Corporation, was created on Feb
ruary 16, 1938 (7 U.S.C. 1501-1519), to carry out the
provisions of the Federal Crop Insurance Act. The pur
pose 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
establishing 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 WAE
(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
work.
Budget program.— For the 1975 crop year it is planned
that the program will be expanded to additional counties
to provide crop insurance protection to farmers on the
following commodities: Apples, barley, beans, citrus,
combined crop, corn, cotton, flax, grain sorghum, grapes,
oats, peaches, peanuts, peas, raisins, rice, soybeans, sugar
beets, sugarcane, tobacco, tomatoes, and wheat.
The following table indicates the scope of the insurance
operations planned for 1974 and 1975, as compared with
1973. Amounts in the 1973 column are actual, and pertain
to the 1972 crop year. The 1974 column pertains to the
1973 crop year, and the 1975 column pertains to the 1974
crop year.

Financing.— Capital stock of $100 million is authorized
to be subscribed by the United States. As of June 30,
1973, 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 pro
vided 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 $48 million from
operations will provide adequate operating funds for fiscal
year 1975, unless heavy losses occur early in the fiscal year.
Operating results andfinancial condition.— As of June 30,
1973, the Corporation reflected a deficit of $9 million
which is lower by $12 million than the deficit of the year
before. The smaller deficit resulted from increased pre
miums over indemnities for crop year 1972 to cover
expenses paid from the fund. Crop year 1972 premiums of
$42.1 million exceeded indemnities by $16.9 million,
resulting in a loss ratio of 0.60 as compared with the 1971
loss ratio of 0.60.
A 0.75 loss ratio is estimated for crop year 1973. Pre
miums of $47 million are estimated to exceed indemnities
by $11.8 million. For the crop years 1948 through 1972,
premium income ($697 million) exceeded indemnity costs
($645.2 million) by $51.8 million; the loss ratio for the
period was 0.93. Premium income exceeded indemnity
costs in 14 of the 25 years.

tions by commodities for 1973, 1974, and 1975:

Appropriation to liquidate contract authority.
1 Statutory obligations against borrowing authority include only borrowing from, or with the approval of
Treasury. A sufficient amount of C C C ’ s borrowing authority is required to be reserved to cover obligations to
purchase notes, or other obligations evidencing loans, and accrued interest thereon, made by lending agencies
and others. Such obligations, other obligations, contingent liabilities, and commitments do not become charges
against the statutory borrowing authority until they result in borrowing from Treasury. Only that portion of
the borrowing authority is available which has neither been so reserved nor charged by actual borrowings.
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
b y 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 1974 and 1975 budget
estimates: (a) Employment, production, and national
income will rise both in 1974 and 1975 from the present
level; (b) generally, exports of agricultural commodities
in 1975 will be slightly lower than 1974 levels; (c) yields
for the 1974 crops are based on recent averages adjusted
for trend; (d) acreage allotments and marketing quotas
will be in effect for the 1974 crops of peanuts ana certain
kinds of tobacco (flue-cured tobacco will be on an acreagepoundage program and Burley tobacco will be on a
poundage allotment); acreage allotments but no market
ing quotas will be in effect for the 1974 crop of rice; and
(e) no set-aside program for cotton, feed grains, and wheat
will be in operation. Payments on these commodities will
be based on an established or target price if the price
received by farmers is below such price.
It is difficult to forecast with accuracy requirements
for the year ending June 30, 1975. Complex and unpre
dictable factors are involved, such as weather, other fac
tors 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 agricul
tural 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 1949,
(7 U.S.C. 1421 et seq.) as amended by the Agricultural
Act of 1970, Public Law 91-524, and the Agriculture and
Consumer Protection Act of 1973, approved August 10,
1973 (87 Stat. 221-250).
Support is mandatory for the basic commodities— com,
cotton, wheat, rice, peanuts, and tobacco. The Agricul
tural Act of 1949 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 are made under certain laws for the
removal of surpluses, 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 and wheat, producers receive payments
in addition to loans and purchases. For upland and extralong staple cotton, producers receive payments in addition
to loans. Producers of feed grains, wheat and upland cotton
must comply with acreage set-aside provisions (herein
after described), if in effect, in order to be eligible for loans,
purchases and payments. Also, the total amount of pay
ments which a person is entitled to receive under one or
more of the annual programs for 1974 through 1977 crops
of the commodities shall not exceed $20 thousand.
Public Law 93-86 (Agriculture and Consumer Protec
tion Act of 1973) established target prices for three major
commodities— wheat, feed grains and upland cotton; set
minimum loan rates for wheat and feed grains; and estab
lished the loan level for upland cotton at 90% of the
average world price for American cotton for the preceding
3 years subject to adjustment to reflect current average
world price if the loan level so calculated is above then
current average world prices for American cotton. Gov
ernment payments for the three commodities are
required when the established prices for those commodi
ties exceeds the national average market price or the loan
rate, whichever is higher. For the 1976 and 1977 crops,
the established prices for these commodities will be ad
justed in relation to the costs of production. In addition,
the act provides for making disaster payments to producers
who are prevented from planting feed grains, wheat, or
upland cotton because of a natural disaster or condition
beyond the control of the producers or who, because of
such a disaster or condition, harvest less than a specified
quantity.
In support operations, normal trade facilities are used
to the maximum extent practicable. Cooperatives and
financial institutions are used in lending activities. Com
mercial 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 Corpora
tion’s charter, particularly section 5(d) and (f), and in ac
cordance 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 Cor
poration may also be made under its charter authority .
The activities described below are illustrative of those
conducted under this program during 1974. 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 were limited to cotton and tobacco by the end of
June 1973, and no further invitations to bid have been
issued.
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 1972 or older crop
tobacco, payments are limited to carryover from 1973
contracts on wheat and rice (to be paid in 1974). However,
if payments for wheat and rice are needed to make these
commodities competitive in world markets, they will be
reinstituted.
To help develop or expand foreign markets, the Cor
poration may furnish farm commodities and products for
samples or exhibits at international trade fairs and for
use abroad in testing consumer acceptance and com
mercial 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
Public enterprise funds— Continued
C o m m o d ity C r e d it C o r p o r a t io n
Fund—
Continued
period of not to exceed 3 years, commercial export credit
sales by exporters of agricultural commodities obtained
either from Corporation inventories or from private
stocks. These commercial transactions are financed under
the Corporation’s charter authority and section 4 of the
Food for Peace Act (7 U.S.C. 1707a) and are to be dis
tinguished from the long-term credit contracts involving
foreign assistance authorized by the Agricultural Trade
Development and Assistance Act of 1954, as amended.
Section 4 of the Food for Peace Act authorized appropria
tions to reimburse the Corporation annually for its actual
costs incurred or to be incurred under this program.
Storage facilities.— The Corporation conducts a pro
gram to provide storage adequate to fulfill its program
needs. This program is conducted pursuant to sections
4 (h) and (m), and 5 (a) and (b) of the charter.
The Corporation has authority to buy bins (in storageshort areas) and equipment for the care and storage of
commodities owned by the Corporation or under its
control. This authority to purchase bins has not been
exercised since 1956. The Corporation has now reduced
its storage capacity from 990 million bushels in 1957
to 198 million bushels on June 30, 1973. The Corporation
makes loans for the purchase, building, or expanding of
facilities for storage and care of commodities on the
farm and sells, to producers and others, bins needed for
the storage of agricultural commodities. Bins sold by
the Corporation may be those acquired for resale for
such storage or those which are no longer required by
the Corporation for the storage of its own commodities.
Public Law 89-758 permits the sale of grain storage
facilities no longer needed for such program use to public
and private nonprofit agencies and organizations. The
Corporation may also provide storage use guarantees to
encourage building of commercial storage, and undertake
other operations necessary to provide storage adequate
to carry out the Corporation’s programs.
Section 805 of the Agricultural Act of 1970 authorized
the Secretary to make or guarantee loans for construction
of farm storage facilities for baled hay from diverted or
set-aside acreage. This program will be conducted through
the ASCS county committees and be financed with capital
funds of the Corporation.
Supply and foreign purchase.— The Corporation pro
cures from domestic and foreign sources, food, agricultural
commodities, and products and related materials to supply
the needs of Federal agencies, foreign governments, and
private and international relief agencies. It similarly
procures or aids in the procurement of such foods, com
modities, products, and material for sale to meet domestic
requirements during periods of short supply or during
such other times as will stabilize prices or facilitate
distribution. Through purchases, loans, sales or other
means the Corporation may also make available ma
terials and facilities needed for the production and
marketing of agricultural commodities. This program
is conducted under section 5 (b) and (c) of the Com
modity Credit Corporation Charter Act.
Purchases for other Federal agencies of commodities
not in the Corporation’s support stocks has been the
main activity. Purchases of limited quantities of breeder,
foundation, and registered seeds of improved varieties
of grasses and legumes are made through production
contracts in order to assure supplies thereof for farmers.
No foreign purchases have been made in recent years.
Section 4 of the act of July 16, 1943 (15 U.S.C. 713a-9),
requires that the Corporation be fully repaid from funds
of such agencies for services performed, losses sustained,
operating costs incurred, or commodities bought or
delivered to or on behalf of any other Federal agency.
Operations not subject to section 4 may involve losses if
such are necessary to the accomplishment of the objectives
of the particular operation.
Wheat certificate program.— The Agriculture and Consumer
Protection Act of 1973 repealed, effective July 1, 1973,
the requirement of the Agricultural Adjustment Act of
1938, as amended, under which processors purchased
domestic wheat marketing certificates equivalent to the
bushel quantity of wheat used to manufacture food
products. Necessary action was taken to facilitate transi
tion to a noncertificate program. Effective with the 1974
program, domestic wheat marketing certificates will not
be issued to producers.
Set-aside program.— The Agricultural Act of 1970, as
amended by the Agriculture and Consumer Protection
Act of 1973, authorizes the Secretary to conduct, through
the Corporation, set-aside programs on the 1971 through
1977 crops of wheat, feed grains, and upland cotton if he
determines that otherwise the total supply of agricultural
commodities will likely be excessive. If a set-aside is in
effect for any such commodity, producers must, as a
condition of eligibility for loans, purchases, and payments
on such commodity, set aside and devote to approved
conservation uses specified acreages of cropland and other
wise comply with program requirements. Participants
in a set-aside program are eligible for a small additional
payment for permitting public access to set-aside acreage.
For the 1974 crops of wheat, feed grains and upland
cotton, the Secretary has announced that there will be
no set-aside of land for feed grains, soybeans, wheat and
cotton. This action will release approximately 19 million
acres for additional production in 1974, and help assure
adequate supplies of food for domestic and export
markets.
Land diversion payments.— To assist in adjusting the
acreage of commodities to desirable goals, the Secretary
is authorized by the Agricultural Act of 1970, as amended,
to make land diversion payments, through the Corpora
tion, to producers who devote to approved conservation
uses acreages of cropland in addition to those required to
be so devoted under the set-aside programs.
Cotton research and promotion.— Under section 610 of
the Agricultural Act of 1970, as amended, the Corpora
tion, through the Cotton Board, and upon approval of
the Secretary, is authorized to enter into agreements for
cotton market development, research, and sales promo
tion programs, programs to aid in the development of
new and additional markets, marketing facilities, and
uses for cotton and cotton products, and programs
to facilitate the utilization and commercial application of
cotton research findings. Each year the amount available
for such programs shall be $10 million. For each of the
1972 through 1977 crops, an additional amount, not
exceeding $10 million may be used by the Secretary for
such programs from funds available for payments on
1972 through 1977 crop cotton. The Agriculture-Environmental and Consumer Protection Appropriation Act of
1974 (P.L. 93-135) limits expenditures to $3 million
for research only in fiscal year 1974, and it is estimated
that $3 million will be paid in fiscal year 1975.
Disaster reserve.— Under section 813 of the Agricultural
Act of 1970, as amended by the Agriculture and Con
sumer Protection Act of 1973, the Secretary shall establish,
maintain and dispose of a separate reserve of inventories
of not to exceed 75 million bushels of wheat, feed grains
and soybeans for the purpose of alleviating distress caused
by a natural disaster. The Secretary shall acquire such
commodities through the price support program; 50
million bushels of oats held by the Commodity Credit
Corporation has been designated as a disaster reserve.
In order to rotate, distribute and locate reserves, such
reserves may be sold at equivalent prices. The Secretary
may use the Commodity Credit Corporation and shall
utilize usual and customary channels, facilities and
arrangements of trade and commerce to the maximum
extent possible. Appropriations are authorized for sums
necessary to carry out the purposes of this section.

Administrative expenses.—Administrative expenses are
for the services of: The Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation Service, the Agricultural Marketing Service,
the Export Marketing Service, the Foreign Agricultural
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 1975 include a limitation of $42.2
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 Statelicensed inspectors; work performed on a contract or fee
basis by Agricultural 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, transpor
tation, and other costs not included above” , in the program
and financing schedule. The item “ Nonadministrative
expense” , which appears in the schedule, covers part of
the expenses of county offices for work related to programs
of the Corporation, other Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation Service expenses offset by revenue, custodian
and agency expense of the Federal Reserve banks and
lending agencies, and miscellaneous costs.
ASCS plans to introduce a significant new AD P and
communications system into its operation. This effort is
an integral part of a broader Management Analysis
Project (MAP) which addresses itself to the managerial
and operating effectiveness of ASCS and the services
offered producers and others. Initially, there will be a
prepilot operation beginning in fiscal year 1975. During
this phase, selected counties will be converted to the
new system in order to test system design concepts and
specialized equipment needed to conduct the pilot opera
tion to begin late in fiscal year 1975. Terminals will be
leased and installed in county offices participating in pre
pilot and pilot operations. Remote batch terminals will
be leased and installed in the field offices and Washington.
The cost of leasing this equipment will be shown in
“ Limitation on Administrative Expenses, CCC” . Equip
ment purchases for this new system will represent capital
investment under the statutory authority of the Com
modity Credit Corporation. New AD P equipment to be
purchased in fiscal year 1975 consists of two remote
service centers to process input to and output from the
central site in Kansas City and one data display terminal
in Washington.

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 program 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 I, Public Law 480).
(3) Commodities supplied in connection with dispositions
abroad (title II, Public Law 480).
(4) Bartered materials for supplemental stockpile.— This
program was closed out in 1971.
(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. Begin
ning in 1967, the Treasury Department has classified this
as a nonexpenditure transaction.
(6) National Wool Act.— Under the National W ool Act
of 1954, as amended by the Agricultural Act of 1970, and
the Agriculture and Consumer Protection Act of 1973,
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 esti

tion, section 705 o f the act appropriates each fiscal year
an amount equal to amounts expended by the Corpora
tion 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

(7) Grain jor migratory waterfowl 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 for 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 ap
propriation 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 commodities with
out charge to producers (7 U.S.C. 414a, 440). Such ad
vances used for classing cotton and grading tobacco not
placed under support loan are repaid from an appropria
tion of the service.
(10) Research to increase domestic consumption of farm
commodities.— The Department of Agriculture and Re
lated Agencies Appropriation Act of 1964 authorized the
transfer of not more than $16 million from the appropria
tion removal of surplus agricultural commodities (sec. 32)
to the Corporation to be used to increase domestic con
sumption 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 transferred such funds to the
Agricultural Research Service and Cooperative State
Research Service to conduct the required research. This
program was closed out in 1973.
(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 the 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
national 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 was not recorded as a
Corporation asset. Proceeds less costs incurred, including
administrative expenses, were covered into the Treasury as
miscellaneous receipts from time to time. No interest was
paid by the Corporation for the use of the money prior to
covering. This program was closed out in 1971.
(18) Loans for 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
program.
(14) Use of CCC facilities for Agricultural Stabilization
and Conservation Service programs.— Under the respective
enabling legislation, the services, facilities, and author
ities of the Corporation are used to make payments to
producers under various programs administered by the
Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service.
Among these programs are Cropland Conversion,
Rural Environmental Assistance, Cropland Adjustment,
Appalachia Regional Conservation, Emergency Con
servation Measures, the Sugar Act Program and the
Water Bank Act Program.
(15) Purchases of dairy products under sec. 709 of the
Food and Agriculture Act 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 section 709 of the Food and Agri
culture Act of 1965. Costs incurred for this activity are
included in the Corporation’s net realized loss for which
it is reimbursed annually by appropriation pursuant to
Public Law 87-155.
(16) Loan for 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
available 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. Funds so transferred or estimated to be
Public enterprise funds— Continued
C o m m o d ity C b e d it C o r p o r a t io n
Fund—
Continued
transferred are usually repaid in subsequent years from
funds appropriated to the Animal and Plant Health
Inspection Service.
(17) Cotton insect eradication.— Under sec. 611 of the
Agriculture and Consumer Protection Act of 1973, the
Secretary is authorized to carry out programs to reduce
cotton production costs, to prevent the movement of
certain cotton plant insects to areas not now infested and
to enhance the quality of the environment. The programs
authorized by this subsection shall be carried oat through
the Commodity Credit Corporation in cooperation with
Federal, State, private agencies and cotton organizations.
Expenditures for carrying out the purposes of this sub
section shall not be made unless the Corporation has
received funds from appropriations made to carry out the
purposes of this subsection.
(18) Purchasingojcommoditiesfor donation.— Section 4(a)
of the Agriculture and Consumer Protection Act of 1973
authorizes the Secretary to use the funds of the Commod
ity Credit Corporation to purchase agricultural commodi
ties and the products thereof, of the types customarily
available under section 416 of the Agricultural Act of 1949,
if stocks of the Corporation are not available. Purchases
may be made of commodities for donation to maintain
annually programed levels of assistance for schools,
domestic relief distribution and such other domestic
food assistance programs as are authorized by law.
This authority is available until July 1, 1974. Costs
incurred for this activity will be included in the Corpora
tion’s net realized loss for which it is reimbursed annually
by appropriation pursuant to Public Law 87-155.
FIN AN CING
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 bor
rowed 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 by such agencies and
others. All bonds, notes, debentures, and similar obliga
tions issued by the Corporation are subject to approval
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 other notes
and obligations at a rate prescribed by Commodity Credit
Corporation and approved by the Secretary of Treasury.
The Department of Agriculture and related Agencies
Appropriation Act, 1966, made provision for terminating
interest after June 30, 1964, on the portion of the Corpora
tion’s borrowings from the Treasury equal to the unreim
bursed realized losses recorded on the books of the Corpora
tion after June 30 of the fiscal year in which such losses
are realized.
The computation of the transfer from interest-bearing
to non-interest-bearing capital is (in thousands of dollars):

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

Net statutory borrowing author

Note.— A sufficient amount of the borrowing authority is required to be reserved
to cover obligations to purchase notes or other obligations and accrued interest
thereon, evidencing loans made by lending agencies and others. Such obligations,
however, as well as accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other outstanding
obligations not reflected on this table, do not become charges against the statutory
borrowing authority until they result in borrowings from the Treasury.
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 subsequent
appropriations and other funds which may become avail
able 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 decrease
of $790 million in 1973 and none in 1974 and 1975. It is
estimated that unobligated balances of authority to spend
public debt receipts will amount to $5,367 million at the
end of 1974 and $9,000 million at the end of 1975.
Appropriations.— Under section 2 of Public Law 87-115
(15 U.S.C. 7 1 3 a -ll), annual appropriations are authorized
for each fiscal year to reimburse the Corporation for net
realized losses incurred as of the close of each year.
The realized losses for 1973 subject to reimbursement
were $4,094 million, and the cumulative losses not yet
appropriated for were $7,551 million. An appropriation of
$4,249 million would provide sufficient funds for the
operations described for 1975. It would also leave a
desirable operating margin to assure flexibility of opera
tions in view of the volume of transactions handled and
the uncertainties of future years under the escalation
provisions of the new farm legislation.
The special activities axe 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 page 137.

The Rural Electrification Administration was orga
nized to carry into effect the loan programs authorized by
the Rural Electrification Act of 1936, as amended. The
Administration conducts two capital investment pro
grams: (1) the rural electrification program, to provide
electric service to farms and other rural establishments;
and (2) the rural telephone program, to furnish and im
prove telephone service in rural areas.
Public Law 93-32, approved M ay 11, 1973, amended
the Rural Electrification Act by establishing the Rural
Electrification and Telephone Revolving Fund (R E T R F ).
The initial assets of the fund, amounting to about $7.8
billion, consisted of all notes, bonds, obligations, liens and
mortgages assigned to the Administrator, undisbursed
balances of electric and telephone loans, collection of
principal and interest since July 1, 1972, and shares of the
capital stock of the Rural Telephone Bank, purchased
pursuant to section 406(a) of the Act. Public Law 93-32
also removed budget authority and outlays of the R E T R F
from the budget totals of the U.S. Government. Schedules
showing the activity of the R E T R F from May 12, 1973,
to June 30, 1973, and estimates for 1974 and 1975 are
included in part IV, Annexed Budgets and Other Material.

for em ploym ent pursuant to the second sentence of section 706(a)
of the Organic A ct of 1944 (7 U .S.C . 2225), and n ot to exceed

1 Includes capital outlay as follows: 1973, $124 thousand; 1974, $56 thousand;
]975, $56 thousand.
2 Excludes $1,222 thousand in obligations recorded in the Rural development
insurance fund and associated with loans financed under the authority of the R ural
Development Act of 1972, refinanced or converted to R E A loans as of M ay I I , 19 7 3 ,
when Public Law 9 3 -3 2 was enacted.
The Rural Electrification Administration makes insured
loans and guarantees loans made by private lenders for
the extension and improvement of electric and telephone
service in rural areas. Most electric loans are made con
currently with supplemental financing provided by the
National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corporation
(CFC) or other supplemental sources. Supplemental fi
nancing is provided in the telephone program by the
Rural Telephone Bank, which utilizes the employees and
facilities of REA and the Office of the General Counsel on
a part-time basis without cost to the bank. Public Law
93-32, approved May 11, 1973, established the Rural
Electrification and Telephone revolving fund as a source
of financing the insured and guaranteed loan programs.
The loan guarantee program is expected to require the
hiring of employees with expertise in areas not needed
before in REA, and the development of 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.

Outlays______________________
Public Law 92-12, approved May 7, 1971, amended the
Rural Electrification Act of 1936, as amended, to establish
the Rural Telephone Bank as a supplemental source of
financing for the RE A telephone program. Public Law
92-324, approved June 30, 1972, amended the act to
permit the Secretary of the Treasury to purchase the
bank’s debentures. This will minimize REA borrowing
costs and help avoid cash-flow problems associated with
obtaining funds on the private money market. Public
Law 93-32, approved M ay 11, 1973, further amended the
act to increase the bank’s borrowing authority from 8 to
20 times its paid-in capital and retained earnings, and to
eliminate the required disclaimer of any government
guarantee on debentures issued by the bank.
Public Law 93-32 also removed budget authority and
outlays of the Telephone Bank from the budget totals of
the U.S. Government. Schedules showing the activity of
the Bank from M ay 12, 1973 to June 30, 1973, and esti
mates for 1974 and 1975 are included in part IV, Annexed

Rural housing for domestic farm labor.— Financial
assistance in the form of grants is authorized 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 is authorized 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.
No funds are being requested for fiscal year 1975 since
the Administration believes the Government’s proper role
can best be served by other programs.

Mutual and self-help housing.— This assistance was au
thorized by section 1005 of the Housing and Urban De
velopment Act of 1968 (Public Law 90-448). These grants
are especially designed to aid the development of com
prehensive 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
1973, a total of 24 grants was made for $3,728,451. It is
estimated that 27 grants totaling $3,832,000 will be made
to nonprofit organizations in 1974. No program is planned
for fiscal year 1975, since the grants plus the subsidy cost
of the associated loans has resulted in high unit costs to
the Government without corresponding benefits to those
aided.
