governs. T hus a perm anent position m ay be occupied b y
an em ployee w hose appointm ent is either tem porary or
perm anent in nature. These positions m ay be full-tim e
(full w orkw eek) or part-tim e (less than a full w orkw eek).

F or each fund showing a revenue and expense statem ent,
there is also presented a balance sheet fo r assets, liabilities,
and equity of the G overnm ent at the close o f each year.
This balance sheet excludes balances of appropriations
and borrow ing authorizations w hich have n ot y e t been
paid into the revolvin g fund. B ecause the balance sheet
is on an accrual basis, the “ L iabilities” section does n o t
reflect obligations incurred for w hich the liability has n o t
accrued. N or does the “ A ssets” section reflect unfilled
custom er orders received, even though such orders are a
basis for obligation in the case o f intragovernm ental
revolvin g funds. T h e “ G overn m en t e q u ity ” section
therefore, shows obligations (w hich have n o t y e t becom e
accrued liabilities), the u n obligated balance, unfilled
custom er orders on hand (where relevan t), and invested
capital and earnings.
T h e last section of the balance sheet is an “ Analysis of
Changes in G overn m en t E q u ity .” This section sets forth
for paid-in capital and retained incom e, as appropriate, the
beginning balance, transactions (changes) during the year,
and the balance at the end o f the year.

Acquisition of library materials.— The Library’s col
lections are developed in accordance with established
acquisition policies: materials are obtained by purchase,
gift, exchange, copyright deposit, transfer and official
deposit; and materials are selected for addition to the
permanent collections. The objective for 1977 is continued
improvement in acquisition coverage and procedures. The
collections totaled 70,537,778 items as of June 30, 1975,
and consisted of 17,454,995 books and pamphlets; 31,722,263 manuscript pieces and 21,360,520 maps, pieces of
music, reels of microfilm, photographs, and other miscel
laneous items. In fiscal year 1975, 1,259,704 items were
added to the permanent collections and 417,222 items
were withdrawn. Pieces received from various sources in
1975 and estimates for 1976 and 1977 are as follows:

catalogs are maintained. Issues of serial publications
are identified and recorded. Cataloging data is converted
to machine readable form for use by the Library of
Congress, other libraries, and cataloging service agencies.
Systems of subject headings and classification are con
tinuously developed for the Library’s needs and for the
nationwide library community.
Objectives in these activities for 1977 are to continue
reductions in backlogs of cataloging and catalog mainte
nance operations and to continue the development of the
machine readable cataloging data base.

objective of this activity for 1977 is to continue to orga
nize more material 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 1976 and 1977 as follows:

4. National program for acquisitions and cataloging.—
The national program for acquisitions and cataloging—
NPAC— is designed to acquire, catalog, and disseminate
cataloging data on a timely basis for all current mono
graphic works of research value in order to meet the needs
of American libraries. The success of the program can be
measured by the significant increase in the number of
books cataloged: from 125,515 new titles in 1966 (first full
year of NPAC funding) to 238,877 new titles in 1975.
The availability and sharing of the current cataloging
copy has resulted in substantial savings by libraries across
the Nation well beyond the cost of the program.
The objectives of this activity in 1977 are the continua
tion of the basic program at its 1976 level, providing
necessary catalog copy automatically and rapidly to
college, university, and other research libraries which
now rely primarily upon the Library of Congress for such
cataloging. New program objectives in 1977 include com
pletion of NPAC shared cataloging coverage of Europe
where possible and the intensification of acquisition
coverage of Latin American and Asian imprints.

Preservation of Library materials.— Library materials
are preserved in their original format by being bound or
rebound, or by a variety of conservation/restoration tech
niques. Materials are also preserved by converting them
to a more durable form through such means as the micro
filming of books and newspapers, by conversion of nitrate
film to a safety base film, and by the conversion of deterio
rating sound recordings to polyester tape. In addition,
the Library conducts basic 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.

The Copyright Office is responsible for recording copy
right claims, assignments, and renewals, for supplying
copyright information to the public, for collecting and
accounting for copyright fees, and for printing complete
and indexed catalogs for each class of copyright entries.
The Office is conducted for the most part on a self-sus
taining basis. The amount requested is substantially
counterbalanced by fees received for services rendered
and the value of books and other library materials de
posited in accordance with the Copyright Act and trans
ferred to the Library of Congress. The income and obliga
tions for 1975 and estimates for 1976 and 1977 are as

The Cataloging Distribution Service Division sells
copies of the Library's printed catalog cards, cataloging
data in machine-readable form, book catalogs, and tech
nical publications. It maintains a stock of over 100 million
catalog cards representing approximately 559,000 titles
which are frequently ordered. From this stock are supplied
90% of the cards which are sold. A master file containing
a single, reproducible copy of each of the cards represent
ing the approximately 6 million titles which the Library
has cataloged since 1898 is also maintained. Requests for
cards for any of the 5,441,000 less frequently ordered titles
are satisfied by duplicating (through offset, photographic,
or electrostatic means) the copy of the card kept in master
file. The Cataloging Distribution Service Division carries
on its books, accounts for 32,694 subscribers, about 22,000
of which are active accounts in any given year. In 1975,
67% of the net obligations was recovered in the form of
receipts from card and publications sales. Rece pts of
$7,116,424 were deposited in miscellaneous receipts of the
Treasury in 1975. The objectives for 1977 are: (1) Meeting
the continuing demand for catalog cards and maintaining

Note— Excludes $321,500 in 1977 for activities transferred to Salaries and expenses, Congressional
Research Service. Comparable amounts for 1975 ($286,700), 1976 ($321,500), and TQ ($80,375) are
included above.
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 ensure completeness of the collec
tions. The objectives for 1977 are: (1) To continue
procurement of important research materials to insure the
continuous and comprehensive development of the
Library’s collections thereby maintaining their national
>reeminence; (2) to continue the purchase of important
oreign commercial books, newspapers, and periodicals;
(3) to continue the extensive procurement of essential
research materials from areas critical to the U.S. foreign
relations, particularly from Eastern Europe, Asia, and
Latin America; (4) to continue to strenghten the Library’s
current acquisitions in the rapidly expanding fields of
science and technology; (5) to acquire highly selected,
important, noncurrent materials needed to provide better
service to Congress; and (6) 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 throughout the world. The legal
publications acquired by purchase constitute the most
important part of the law library’s acquisitions, although
a substantial part of the annual receipts is received by
means other than purchase. The special objectives for
1977 are: (1) To continue the procurement of certain cur
rent domestic and foreign legal materials where the ex
peditious receipt and filing of current supplements and
revisions is necessary because receipt through exchange
and gift operations is irregular; (2) to improve the current
and retrospective coverage of important Hispanic, African,
Middle Eastern, and South Asian sources; (3) to continue
the procurement of both current and noncurrent materials
needed to strengthen the law library’s already com
prehensive holdings of critical areas in Eastern Europe,
Asia, and Africa; (4) to continue the acquisition of micro
forms and photoduplicates of important research items,
especially those from critical areas, which are no longer
obtainable in the original; and (5) for replacement of
hard-bound copies.

The Division for the Blind and Physically Handicapped
is responsible for administering a national program to
provide reading material for the blind and physically
handicapped of the United States and its outlying areas.
It has two closely related operations.
1.
Procurement and distribution.— It procures books in
embossed characters, talking books with their associated
reproducers, and catalogs and publications of material
available. The books are distributed through 54 regional
libraries and 95 other cooperating libraries which assume
responsibility for their custody and circulation. The
reproducers are distributed through 62 State agencies and
libraries. The maintenance and procurement of these books
are shown in the following table :

2 . Reader services.-—During the past 5-year period,
1971-75, the number of blind and physically handicapped
readers throughout the country has grown from over
254,000 to over 475,000 and circulation from approxi
mately 6,886,000 units (volumes, containers, and reels)
to about 12,262,000. The number of readers and circulation
are expected to continue to increase in 1976 and 1977 at
the same rate as in the past 5 years. A combined total of
nearly 42,400 requests for interlibrary loan and inquiries
concerning library and related services available to the
blind and to other physically handicapped persons were
received in 1975. Individuals throughout the Nation who
are interested in transcribing or proofreading braille are
trained, and those qualified are certified. During 1975 over
460 individuals were certified, and it is anticipated that
this level will continue during 1976 and 1977. 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 Americans
living abroad. In addition, music materials are provided
directly to readers throughout the country.
Objectives for 1977 are: (1) to provide sound reproducer
equipment to meet readers’ needs at the most economical
cost; (2) to implement the transition from books on discs
to books on cassettes and on flexible discs, and of magazines
from hard records to flexible discs; (3) to expand library

The Oliver Wendell Holmes Devise Fund was estab
lished by 69 Stat. 533 to: (1) prepare a history of the
Supreme Court of the United States, and if deemed
advisable, (2) to finance an annual lecture or series of
lectures, and (3) publish a memorial volume of Justice
Holmes’ writings. The principal and interest on the fund
are available for these purposes. The current program is
devoted primarily to the preparation of the history of the
Supreme Court, of which the first two volumes were
published by the Macmillan Co. in fiscal year 1972. A
third volume was published in August 1974, and two
additional volumes are in the process of being prepared.
An annual lecture series is also financed by this fund and
reprints of the lectures are distributed to law schools and
libraries throughout the country.

This schedule covers: (1) funds received as gifts for
immediate expenditure and receipts from the sale of
recordings and photoduplication materials financed from
capital originally received as gifts, (2) income from invest
ments held by or for the Library of Congress Trust Fund
Board, and (3) interest at the rate of 4% per annum
paid by the Treasury on the principal funds deposited
therewith as described under “ Library of Congress Trust
Fund, Principal Accounts” (2 U.S.C. 156-160; 31 U.S.C.
725s; 37 Stat. 319).
1. Acquisition of library materials.— During 1975, this
included the procurement of manuscripts, Hispanic mate
rials, fine prints, rare books and other library materials
for the Library of Congress, and the acquisition and dis
tribution of Government documents for the Library of
Congress and cooperating libraries. The Library expects
the activities to continue in 1976 and 1977.
2. Reader and reference services.— These services during
1975 included the preparation of bibliographies, indexes,
digests, and checklists; lectures, surveys of bibliographic
services; poetry readings; musical concerts; furtherance of
musical research, composition, performance and apprecia
tion; and providing photostats, photographs, microfilm,
and other forms of photoduplication, and sound recordings
of folksongs, and poetry to other Government agencies,
libraries and other institutions, and to the general public;
and distribution of recordings of the Library’s literary
programs and concerts to radio stations for public service
broadcasts. The Library expects these activities to con
tinue in fiscal years 1976 and 1977.
3. Organization and control of the collections.— In Febru
ary 1967, the Library of Congress began the largest single
bibliographical project in its history, the publication of the
pre-1956 “ National Union Catalog.” It is expected that
the project will be completed in 10 years, and that the
published catalog will comprise 600 volumes. Over 400
volumes have been published. The preparation of the 19th
full edition of the “ Dewey Decimal Classification,” begun
during 1972, continues.

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
Government publications to designated depository li
braries ; and (3) the mailing for Members of Congress and
other Government agencies of certain Government pub
lications, as authorized by law. It also provides part of
the funding for (4) the sale of Government publications in
accordance with section 1708 of title 44 of the U.S. Code
and (5) the sale of certain other Government publications
in accordance with various other authorities. These five
functions are related to the publication activity of other
agencies and to the demands of the public, Members of
Congress, and depository libraries. Consequently, Docu
ments can exercise little control over the volume of work
which it may be called upon to perform. A description of
these five functions follows:
1. General sales of publications.— Selected Government
publications are placed on sale to the public in accordance
with section 1708 of title 44 of the U.S. Code. This section
states, in part, the following:
“ T h e price at which additional copies of G overnm ent
publications are offered for sale to the public b y the Super
intendent of D ocu m en ts shall be based on the cost as
determ ined b y the P ublic Printer plus 50% * * *. Surplus
receipts from sales shall be deposited in the Treasury of the
U nited States to the credit of miscellaneous receipts.”
2. Special sales of publications.— Certain publications
are placed on sale to the public wherein the price of the
publication is n ot established in accordance with section
1708, title 44, bu t in accordance w ith various other author
ities such as 44 U .S.C . 906, 44 U .S.C . 910, and 44 U.S.C.
1504.
3. Distribution for other agencies and Members of Con
gress.— The Office of Superintendent of D ocu m en ts main
tains m ailing lists and mails, at the request of G overnm ent
agencies and M em bers of Congress, certain publications
specified b y public law.
4. Depository library distribution.— As required, G overn
m ent publications are supplied to libraries which are
designated as depositories for G overnm ent publications.
5. Cataloging and indexing.— The Office of Superin
tendent of Documents is charged with preparing catalogs
and indexes of all publications issued by the Federal

For 1972 the U.S. Tax Court received an initial appro
priation in the amount of $18,712 thousand, and for 1973
and 1975 supplemental appropriations in the amounts of
$1,916 thousand and $2 million respectively, to provide
for the construction of a court building to be located within

national jurisdiction with headquarters in Washington,
D.C. and conducts trial sessions throughout the United
States. The new building provides adequate housing and
courtroom facilities for the judges, commissioners, and
all support personnel.
Ground was broken on July 31, 1972, and the new
quarters were occupied in January 1975. Phase II of the
building project, the plaza across Interstate 95, is expected
to be completed in calendar year 1976.

The U.S. Court of Claims has jurisdiction over all cases
involving claims against the United States (except in
pension suits) instituted upon constitutional grounds or
under Federal law or regulations, all claims arising out of
any contract with the Federal Government and its agen

terminated war contracts and jurisdiction concurrent with
that of the courts of appeals to review district court
decisions in cases involving tort actions. It has exclusive

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 Com
mission, 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; and to provide the highway transportation
facilities necessary to accelerate the overall development
of Appalachia. The program is funded through contract
authority available in the fiscal year preceding the year of
authority. The budget for 1977 provides $185 million to
fully liquidate obligations through that period.
The status of the system of roads including mileage
prefinanced by the State follows:

2. Area development programs.— Funds are provided for
a single allocation to each of the Appalachian States for
implementing programs of area development. The pro
grams 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,
education, and community facilities.
During 1977 continued emphasis will be placed on con
ducting area development activities within the several
geographic subregions of Appalachia by an allocation sys
tem permitting greater State flexibility in the amount
and kind of projects undertaken. These projects will be of
the following types, with the project mix depending upon

This program provides for several ways of assisting the
region in obtaining a larger share of housing for low- and
moderate-income families. The Commission is authorized
to make technical assistance grants for the organization
of State housing corporations and local nonprofit groups
to encourage such housing construction.
This program also provides authority to make loans for
up to 80% of the preliminary cost of planning housing
projects and obtaining Federal or State housing assistance.
Eligible loan costs include preliminary site engineering
and architectural fees, site options, and construction loan
fees and legal costs.
Grants may be made for site development costs and
offsite improvements such as sewer and water line exten
sions where necessary for economic feasibility of the
housing project. Grants for such purposes may not exceed
ten percent of the project cost.
In 1977 technical and site development grants will be
funded from the Appalachian regional development pro
gram appropriations. Funds have been transferred from
the uAppalachian regional development” appropriation to
this revolving fund for the following workload:

Military training for foreign military personnel prior
to 1976 was funded by the military assistance appropria
tion. A separate training account was proposed in 1976
to underscore the importance of this form of contact
between the defense establishments in foreign countries
and U.S. military departments. Education and training
of members of foreign armed forces is an effective way to
create good will while at the same time improving the
defensive abilities of their countries. Training is con
ducted in both the United States and abroad. An appro
priation of $30.9 million is proposed for 1977.

credit, including $500 million for Israel. Authorit}^ is
sought to forgive repayment of up to the full amount
of the direct credit for Israel.

As authorized by sections 21 and 22 of the Foreign Mili
tary Sales Act, as amended, this trust fund is used to
facilitate sales of defense articles and services. Orders
placed by foreign governments through the trust fund can
be combined with procurement for our own Armed
Forces. The resultant savings are shared by both the
United States and foreign governments.
Defense articles from Department of Defense stocks are
sold for U.S. dollars to eligible countries and international
organizations if they agree to pay in advance or, as au-

Defense articles and defense services may also be pro
cured by the Department of Defense for foreign purchasers
if the purchasers agree to pay the full amount of the pro
curement contract, which assures the Government against
any loss on the contract.
New sales orders (budget authority) are estimated at
$9.8 billion in 1976 and $8.9 billion in 1977. Receipts of the
trust fund (line 60) are projected to be $6.5 billion in
1976 and $7.2 billion in 1977. The net impact of the trust
fund on the budget in outlay terms is the difference
between trust :fund outlays (line 90) and receipts (line
60). This net amount is estimated to be —$600 million
in 1976 and —$200 million in 1977.

The United States, along with many other countries,
provides funds to promote international monetary stability
through the International Monetary Fund (IM F) and to
finance development lending and technical assistance
through the international development lending institutions.
Each of these institutions is an international organiza
tion, whose capital is subscribed and contributed by
member governments. The lending institutions make
ordinary capital loans to developing member countries
with funds generated from members’ purchases of paid-in
capital stock and with funds borrowed on world capital
markets. The borrowings are backed by members’ sub
scriptions to callable capital, which would be drawn on for
cash disbursements only in the unlikely event that funds
would be required to meet an institution’s obligations.
Concessional financing is provided primarily from con
tributions of members made specifically for this purpose.
Ordinary capital loans have long-term maturities and
near-market interest rates. Special fund loans (including
all International Development Association credits) have
longer maturities and low, sometimes even nominal,
interest rates. In general, they are provided to the poorest
developing countries.

The International Development Association (ID A ) was
established in 1960 to provide development financing on
concessional terms. As of June 30, 1975, the U.S. share of
the $7,213 million in total contributions was $2,500 million.
On August 14, 1974, legislation authorizing a U.S.
contribution of $1,500 million, as part of a $4,500 million
multidonor fourth replenishment of ID A resources, was
signed into law. As the second of four installments on
this contribution, an appropriation of $375 million is
requested for 1977.
2. Investment in Inter-American Development Bank.— The
Inter-American Development Bank (ID B ) promotes
economic development in Latin American and Caribbean
countries through loans and technical assistance. Twentyfour Western Hemisphere countries, including the United
States and Canada, are members of the Bank. The entry
of 12 nonregional donor countries is expected in 1976.
Approximately 4 9 .7 % of ID B lending has come from the
Bank’s ordinary capital resources and 5 0.3 % from the
Fund for Special Operations, the ID B ’s soft loan window.
Authorizing legislation for the replenishment of the
ID B ’s ordinary and special resources for the period
1976-79 is before the Congress. Upon enactment of this
legislation, appropriations for 1977 will be requested.
These are detailed in the section on legislative programs.
3. Investment in Asian Development Bank.— The Asian
Development Bank (AD B) 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 December 22, 1974, legislation
authorizing a U.S. contribution of $361.9 million, as part
of a $1,550 million multidonor replenishment of the A D B ’s
ordinary resources, was signed into law. An appropriation
of $120.6 million ($24.1 million for paid-in and $96.5
million for callable capital) is requested in 1977 for the
third and final installment by the United States of the
subscription.

of $201 million arising from the decrease in the value of
the dollar in terms of the Special Drawing Right (SDR),
the IM F ’s unit of account. In June 1974 the IM F adopted
the SDR “ currenc}r basket” method of valuation in which
the value of the dollar and other currencies in terms of the
SDR varies from day to day as a result of fluctuations in
market exchange rates within the group of 16 currencies
that comprise the currency basket. Thus, during the
past fiscal year, the United States incurred increased ob
ligations to the IM F under the maintenance of value
provisions equal to the decreased value of the dollars held
by the IM F in terms of the SDR currency basket. As
monetary transactions, the increase in the current dollar
value of the U.S. quota, and other transactions with the
IM F, represent exchanges of assets and do not have a
budgetary impact.
The United States has been engaged in international
monetary negotiations involving an increase in IM F
quotas and a series of important amendments to the IMF
Articles of Agreement. The Bretton Woods Agreement,
as amended, requires congressional authorization for any
change in the U.S. quota and for acceptance of any
amendment of the Articles. When the negotiations are
concluded, appropriate legislation will be submitted to
the Congress. As a monetary transaction, any increase in
the U.S. quota will not have a budgetary impact.

The Functional Development Assistance Program aims
at transferring financial resources to the developing
countries and at increasing the participation of the poor
in the development process. Loans and grants under this
program are concentrated in those areas— food and nutri
tion, population planning and health, and education and
human resources development— in which the United
States has special expertise and which promise the
greatest opportunity for the poor to better their lives.

Outlays *
1 From the Functional development assistance program.
2 Section 6 of Public Law 93-559, the Foreign Assistance Act of 1974, amended section 203 of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 to
provide that after 1975 dollar receipts from loans will no longer be available for making loans under the act; such receipts will be deposited
in the Treasury as miscellaneous receipts.
3 The amounts shown under costs and obligations are accrued interest receivables; for the reasons set out in footnote2, above, they
are not available for new loan commitments and will be deposited in the Treasury when collected.
« Of the amount shown for 1975, $211,892 thousand is from the Alliance for Progress— Development loan account which is shown as
merged with the Development Loans— Revolving Fund beginning in 1974.
Development loans are made to friendly developing
countries in order to promote their economic growth.
These loans are repayable in U.S. dollars at an interest
rate of not less than 3% per annum. Loan repayments are
to begin not later than 10 years following the date on
which the funds are lent. During the initial 10-year period
the rates of interest are not to be lower than 2% per
annum.
Beginning in 1974 budget authority for both loans and
grants for development assistance has been included in
the schedule Functional development assistance program.

Housing guaranties are extended to assist developing
nations in the formulation and execution of sound housing
and community development policies. The program was
established originally in Latin America and extended by
the Foreign Assistance Act of 1969 to include Asia and
Africa. In 1973, a shelter sector policy reflecting legislative
concern was adopted, which placed greater emphasis on
meeting the housing needs of low-income groups.

The Overseas Private Investment Corporation encour
ages the participation of U.S. private capital and skills in
the economic and social development of less developed
friendly countries. Its primary programs are (1) political
risk insurance against losses due to expropriation, inconverti
bility, and war damage ; and (2) investment financing through
loans and loan guaranties. The Corporation is currently
operating on a self-sustaining basis, and requires no budget
authority for 1977. Pursuant to legislation enacted Au
gust 22, 1974, the Corporation is working to transfer the
underwriting of political risk insurance to private parties
with the Corporation ultimately acting solely as reinsurer
of the private underwriters.

million will be transmitted for 1977, as the first of three
annual installments.
3. Investment in Asian Development Bank—Asian

that would authorize an additional U.S. contribution to
the ADF. Although the specific level of our share is still
to be determined, it is anticipated that the U.S. contri
bution will be paid in three installments, for which the
first appropriation of $50 million is proposed for later
transmittal in 1977.
4. Investment in African Development Fund ( AFDF).—
Legislation to authorize U.S. membership in the AFDF
is pending in Congress. The Administration is also re
questing authorization for a contribution of $15 million.

Outlays________________________________
1. Investment in International Finance Corporation
(.IFC).— The International Finance Corporation was
established in 1956 to further economic development by
encouraging the growth of productive private enterprises
through loans and equity investments. It is affiliated with
the World Bank. As of June 30, 1975, the U.S. share of
the $107 million in total subscriptions was $35 million.
It is expected that legislation to authorize a U.S.
contribution to a replenishment of IFC capital of up to
$500 million will be requested. The requested U.S. sub
scription will be up to $125 million, to be paid in several
yearly installments. An appropriation request for the
first installment of up to $41.7 million will be transmitted
upon approval of authorizing legislation.
2. Investment in Inter-American Development Bank
(IDB)— Ordinary capital.—As of June 30, 1975, the total
subscribed ordinary capital of the IDB was $5,965 million
of which $983 million was paid-in. The U.S. share is
$2,409 million, including $362 million paid-in.
Given current and projected lending levels, a further
replenishment of IDB resources is required for the 1976-79
period. Authorizing legislation for the U.S. share of $1,650
million of which $120 million is to be paid-in, and $1,530
million callable capital, is presently pending in the Con
gress. When authorizing legislation is approved, an appro
priation of $240 million ($40 million in paid-in capital and
$200 million in callable capital) will be requested for 1976,
and an appropriation for the second tranche of ordinary
capital of $240 million, of which $40 million would be
paid-in capital, will be requested in 1977.
Fund for Special Operations (FSO) . —Contributions to
the Fund for Special Operations as of June 30, 1975, totaled

1 Includes capital outlay as follows: 1975, $16,720 thousand; 1976, $17,250 thousand; TQ, $6,000
thousand; 1977, $18,000 thousand.
Note.— Excludes $96 thousand in 1977 for activities transferred to the Department of State. Com
parable amounts for 1975 ($95 thousand), 1976 ($95 thousand), TQ ($24 thousand) are included
above.
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; and marketing, use and
effects of agricultural products. 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 man
agement practices and to develop methods for controlling
diseases, parasites, and insect pests affecting them. The
increase requested for 1977 would provide for fundamental
research to improve reproduction efficiency, feed utiliza
tion, and management practices for livestock and poultry;
and reduce losses from animal diseases, parasites, and
other pests, and for support costs related to ongoing work.
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 1977 would provide for fundamental research to im
prove crop production practices, including technologies
to meet climatic variables; improve production, use, and
quality of forages and grazing lands; reduce the genetic
vulnerability o f crops; improve yields and quality of crops
through nitrogen fixation, photosynthesis, and cell bi
ology; improve pest management technology; and for
tropical and subtropical agricultural research; and for
support costs related to ongoing fundamental research.
3. Research on the use and improvement oj soil, air) and
water.— 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 watersheds, and on agricultural pollution
problems. The increase requested for 1977 would provide
for research for long-term crop and livestock production
and for support costs related to ongoing fundamental
research.
4. Research on marketing, use and effects oj agricultural
products. —Research is conducted to develop new and im
proved foods, feeds, fabrics and industrial products and
processes for agricultural commodities for domestic and
foreign markets; on the processing, transportation, storage,
wholesaling, and retailing of products; on human nutri
tional requirements, and the composition and nutritive
value of food as needed by consumers and by Federal,
State, and local agencies administering food and nutrition
programs. Research is also conducted on problems of
human health and safety, including means to insure the
safety of food and feed supplies; to control insect pests of
man and his belongings; to reduce the hazards to human
life resulting from pesticide residues, tobacco, and other
causes; on consumer services; and on improved rural
housing. A $2,000 thousand decrease is requested in 1977
to reflect the increased capability of industry and com
modity groups to fund research in this area.
5. Construction oj facilities.—The 1977 estimates provide
for a decrease of $18,520 thousand to eliminate non
recurring amounts provided for construction of facilities
in 1976.
6. Contingencies.—Beginning in 1962, $1 million is avail
able to meet urgent needs that develop unexpectedly
during the year when such needs cannot be met by redirec
tion of resources from other projects.
7. Support services to other USDA agencies.— Effective
July 1, 1974 the Agricultural Research Service is respon
sible for providing management support services to the
National Agricultural Library and Cooperative State
Research Service. These services include budgetary, per
sonnel, and administrative functions which were pre
viously provided by the Office of Management Services.

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. Research which is important to
American agriculture and supplements our domestic
programs is carried on through agreements negotiated
with institutions 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 1977
would be used to purchase foreign currencies in those
countries determined to be excess to the normal require
ments of the United States to expand overseas research of
value to U.S. agriculture. Total estimated cost in U.S.
dollars (charged to regular appropriations) for program
direction and supervision of projects in 1977 is $725
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 re
sources 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. Activities include inspection
of animals, carcasses, meat and poultry products at vari
ous stages of handling and processing, and regulation of
labeling. The Federal program also provides financial and
technical assistance to States for maintaining the quality
of their inspection programs. Extensive laboratory analy
ses are conducted for detection of chemical residues, anti
biotics, and other additives.
The increases in the 1977 estimates provide for assump
tion of intrastate inspection responsibilities from States
unable to maintain an inspection system at least equal to
Federal.
The volume of inspections and examinations is indicated
by examples given in the following table :

2. Plant disease and pest control.— Programs are designed
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 1977 estimates propose an
increase for national plant pest and disease detection and
elimination of the burrowing nematode, Japanese beetle,
and white-fringed beetle programs. An increase is also
provided to begin a trial boll weevil eradication program
in Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.

Outlays..
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,
$100 thousand was paid to the Department upon execu
tion of the contract. An additional $100 thousand will be
paid to the Department 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. The Department has
recently found an acceptable site at Stewart Airport,
Newburgh, N .Y. The lease, which was drafted for
approval by both parties, was signed September 5, 1975,
and selection of an architect and engineer to perform
design and planning functions is now in final process.

ultimately aimed at increasing the efficiency of agricultural
production.
Some funds for penalty mailings for State agricultural
experiment station directors are provided under this ap
propriation.
2. Grants for cooperative forestry research.—These funds
are allocated to land-grant colleges or agricultural experi
ment stations in the 50 States, Puerto Rico, Guam, and
the Virgin Islands, and other State-supported colleges and
universities offering graduate training in the sciences basic
to forestry and having a forestry school. The act requires
that the Federal funds paid to each institution be matched
by funds from non-Federal sources for forestry research.
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 specific grant
funds is utilized to support research on special problems
of joint concern to the USD A and to the States. A decrease
is proposed for research on environmental quality, food
and nutrition, beef and pork production, genetic vulner
ability, and forage, pasture, and range research. The
balance of the specific grant funds is earmarked for the
land-grant colleges of 1890 and Tuskegee Institute. The
increase requested for fiscal year 1977 will provide for
increased research at the land-grant colleges of 1890 and
Tuskegee Institute.
5. Funds for rural development research.— No funding
is proposed for 1977 since authorization for appropriation
of funds under title V of the Rural Development Act of
1972 has expired.
6. Federal administration.—A coordinating and review
staff is maintained to examine research projects and assist
State institutions and Federal agencies. The reimbursable
program includes the Current Research Information
System which provides information on the research proj
ects, status of the research and fund resources for research
programs of the State agricultural experiment stations,
and other eligible institutions.

1977, $62 thousand.
The primary function of the nationwide system of co
operative extension work is out-of-school applied education
in agriculture, home economics, community development,
4-H youth programs, and related subjects. This edu
cational work takes research results, technological advance
ments, and program facts of the Department of Agri
culture, the State agricultural colleges and experiment
stations, and incorporates them into a program for action.
Cooperative Extension Service interprets, disseminates,
and encourages practical use of knowledge. It transmits
information from researchers to people.
1. Payments to States.— Funds appropriated under the
Smith-Lever Act for payments to States, Puerto Rico,
Guam, and the Virgin Islands are distributed primarily
on the basis of population and to a degree on basis of
special problems and needs. Funds are used primarily for
the employment of State, area and county extension
workers who work with individuals, families, community
organizations, marketing concerns, and others by provid
ing advice and assistance in the application of improved
methods for production, marketing, nutrition, family
living, and community development. Work with youth is
accomplished largely through the 4-H program. Extension
agents are paid from Federal, State, and county sources.
The employer’s contribution to the retirement fund as
required by Public Law 854 is provided by this Federal
appropriation. Funds also provide for Federal payment
to the Bureau of Employees’ Compensation Fund. Funds
for the cost of penalty mailings for State extension di
rectors and cooperative extension agents are also provided.
A net decrease of $10,408,840 is proposed for this item.
This consists of increases of $1,988,160 for the 1862 landgran t institutions; $77 thousand for the 1890 land-grant
institutions and Tuskegee Institute; and $136 thousand
for employer retirement costs. These increases are to
bolster high priority extension education work. Offsetting
decreases consist of proposed reductions in funds for the
expanded food and nutrition education program ($10,170
thousand), and rural development activities under sec
tion 3(d) of the Smith-Lever Act ($1 million) and title V
of the Rural Development Act of 1972, ($1,440 thousand).
No changes are proposed for other earmarked funds in
support of expanded extension education for Pest manage
ment, Farm safety and the District of Columbia extension
programs.
2. Federal administration and coordination.— The Ex
tension Service provides leadership and assistance to
States, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, and the
District of Columbia in developing extension programs,
improving teaching methods, efficient use of available
resources, evaluation of programs, and administrative
services. An increase of $22,840 will be used primarily for
special projects to initiate programs, and establish and
finance pilot projects in selected areas. Other increases of
$228 thousand will be used for increased Federal salary
costs that became effective in October 1975 and $13
thousand for increased GSA space rental costs for the
Washington, D.C., office complex.

The National Agricultural Library, in cooperation with
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 all of the Department programs in the
Washington metropolitan area, as well as the field instal
lations throughout the country. It has the added responsi
bility of service to the land-grant universities, and the
world agricultural science community.
DEPARTM ENT

A G R IC U L T U R E
e c o n o m ic m a n a g e m e n t s u f p o r t c e n t e r
The Library's primary purpose is to acquire, preserve,
and disseminate an exhaustive collection of reliable infor
mation in all phases of the agricultural and allied sciences:
Botany, chemistry, animal industry and veterinary medi
cine, biology including marine biology, agricultural en
gineering, rural development and sociology, forestry,
entomology, food and nutrition, agricultural ecology,
oceanography, soils and fertilizers, and the marketing,
transportation, and other economic aspects of agricultural
products. NAL also maintains, in cooperation with the
Office of General Counsel, a central law library and 17
field legal libraries. One of the important functions of the
Law Library is to provide histories of all laws pertaining
to the work of the Department.
Information contained in the agricultural literature is
disseminated through on-line computer networks, printed
bibliographies, personal reference services, loans and
photocopies to agricultural colleges, research institutions,
Government agencies, agricultural associations, industry,
individual scientists, farmers, and the general public in
every part of the world.
USDA, Federal, public, private, and international de
mands for the services of NAL continue to grow. The
proposed budget increases will continue to be concentrated
on the continuance of the Library’s basic objectives, but
major breakthroughs can be expected in the NAL role as
coordinator of the world’s agricultural information
resources.

The mission of the Statistical Reporting Service is to
administer the Department's program of collecting and
publishing national and State agricultural statistics.
Data developed by the Service on food and agriculture
are essential to farmers, processors, and handlers in making
production and marketing decisions and to legislators
and administrators in developing and administering
agricultural programs. Data provided by the Service are
basic to economic research and analysis, consumer
programs, and other agricultural research.

production of crops; stocks and value of farm commodities;
and numbers and inventory value of livestock items.
Data on approximately 150 crops and livestock products
are covered in some 550 reports issued each year. Data
collected and published on prices paid and received by
farmers are basic to computation of parity prices.
The work of the Service is conducted through 44 State
offices serving the 50 States; most of these offices are
operated as joint State and Federal services. Cooperative
arrangements with State agencies provide much additional
State and county data; Federal funds are not available for
collection and publication of these data.

The Department’s responsibilities in the agricultural
phases of the U.S. foreign development assistance pro
rams are administered by the Economic Research
ervice. This includes direction of the Department’s
activities under agreement with the Agency for Inter
national Development (AID), Peace Corps, and other
development assistance organizations, particularly agri
cultural technical assistance and training programs.
The Service participates with AID in the planning of
agricultural development policy, in formulating technical
assistance projects, and in the review and evaluation of
agricultural assistance efforts. In performing these func
tions, the Service works closely with other U.S. and
international organizations to help them utilize the scien
tific and institutional competence of American agriculture
in carrying out development assistance programs.
The Department’s foreign technical assistance has
heretofore been mainly funded by AID. During the past
few years, however, the Department has entered into
direct agreements with foreign governments and in
creasingly with various international organizations.

Farmer Cooperative Service conducts studies relating to
cooperatives engaged in the marketing of farm products,
purchasing of production supplies and supplying related
business services. Its total effort is devoted to preserving
the family farm through the cooperative effort. The Agency
program is directed toward providing technical assistance
to cooperatives and research to improve cooperative
performance. It has several major thrusts to help make
family farmers’ cooperative businesses competitive and
efficient.
Technical assistance is provided in response to problems
that may come to FCS from farmers directly or through
the management of boards of directors of cooperatives
composed of hundreds and in some instances thousands of
farmers. Help is given on the formation of new coopera
tives, the merits of merging cooperative organizations,
changes in business organizations and future growth or
development, and the development of more viable rela
tionships between cooperatives and other businesses and
institutions. The full range of organization and manage
ment problems confronting cooperatives is covered by the
FCS technical assistance program.
Applied research is conducted to give farmers relevant
and expert assistance pertaining to their cooperatives.
Studies concentrate on financial, organizational, legal,
social, and economic aspects of cooperative activity.
Statistical data are collected to detect changes in
structure, operations, and growth trends. Data help
identify and support applied research and technical
assistance activities.
The Agency serves as a central storehouse of data about
farmer cooperatives in the United States. This informa
tion is communicated to the farmer or member through a
variety of publications.
FCS efforts center on providing immediate response and
leadership for more effective and efficient cooperative
operations in the changing economic environment in which
the family farmer operates.
The adjustments requested in fiscal year 1977 are an
increase of $5 thousand for increased costs for GSA space,
and the annualization of pay cost increase effective in
fiscal year 1976 of $30 thousand.

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.
D E P A R T M E N T OF A G R IC U LT U R E
(a) The Service maintains a worldwide agricultural in
telligence 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 co
ordinates 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 inter
national commodity agreements. It reviews and reports
trade regulations of countries (primarily those signatory
to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) as to
how such regulations affect the movement of U.S. farm
products in world trade.
The Service administers a program of import controls, in
accordance with section 22 of the Agricultural Adjust
ment Act, on foreign farm products which would render
ineffective or materially interfere with Department pro
grams relating to agricultural commodities. It is also
responsible for administering import controls established
under the 1964 Meat Import Act and section 204 of the
Trade Expansion Act.
2. Agricultural attachés.— The Service maintains agri
cultural attachés at 64 foreign posts to assist in the de
velopment of markets abroad for U.S. agricultural com
modities. They work closely with numerous U.S. agricul
tural 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.—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 coun
tries. These programs are authorized by titles I and II of
the Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act
of 1954, as amended.
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. agricul
tural commodities from private stocks are financed for ex
port 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 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
FOREIGNAGRICULTURAL SERVICE—Continued
FEDERALFUNDS—Continued
funds to pay for goods and services which U.S. Govern
ment agencies would otherwise buy abroad with dollars.
Exports are restricted to areas where they will help main
tain or increase the U.S. share of markets, thereby benefit
ing the balance of payments. The agricultural commodi
ties 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.
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.
Market development.—The Service administers programs
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
system of multicommodity promotional programs utiliz
ing trade fairs, trade centers and point-of-purchase
campaigns to expand overseas markets.
Reviewing foreign marketing plans; providing technical
assistance in their design; developing procedures and
controlling budgets and funds essential to their imple
mentation; and evaluating programs implemented.
Cooperating with State and local organizations in
programs designed to provide technical assistance to
U.S. agricultural export firms and to stimulate participa
tion of new U.S. ‘ 1cooperator” groups in promotional
projects.
Developing and guiding a systematic review of foreign
markets on a country-by-country basis to find new
market opportunities for U.S. agricultural products and
to develop long-range promotional plans for such markets.
Export sales reporting.— The Service reports on export
sales of wheat, wheat flour, feed grains, oilseeds, cotton,
cotton products, and other commodities. Exporters are
required by section 812 of the Agriculture and Consumer
Protection Act of 1973 to furnish to the Secretary of
Agriculture information about these commodities, in
cluding specifically: (a) type, class, and quantity of the
commodity to be exported; (b) the marketing year of
shipment; and (c) destination, if known. The Service
tabulates the information provided on a weekly basis and
prepares summaries for release to the public, as well as
other reports designed to provide an objective basis for
evaluation of export activity.

geographic areas of key importance are analyzed from a
competitive standpoint with the ultimate objective to
develop markets for U.S. agricultural products. The pro
gram area maintains a supporting role by providing
statistical data and analyzed information to other action
program areas of the Foreign Agricultural Service. Assist
ance is given to American exporters and foreign importers
to bring them together under conditions favorable to
trade.
As the lead agency for the Large Area Crop Inventory
Experiment (LACIE), the Service cooperates with ASCS,
ERS, and SRS to execute those aspects of the program
which devolve upon the Department of Agriculture. The
program is conducted under authority of the act of Au
gust 28, 1954 (7 U.S.C. 1761), and the act of March 4,1909,
as amended by the act of March 4, 1917. The USD A
works with the National Aeronautics and Space Admini
stration (NASA) and the National Oceanic and Atmos
pheric Administration (NO A A) in this joint technical
effort which is designed to establish the utility and cost
effectiveness of using earth resources satellite, meteoro
logical, and climatological data to determine crop classifi
cation, field yields, acreages, and production. The Serv
ice’s principal duties are administrative and analytical in a
program which is specifically oriented toward developing
a data handling, processing, and analysis approach which
combines inputs from two satellites, ground meteoro
logical networks, and standard historical and conven
tional agricultural data bases.

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

Approximately $7% million each year may be used to
buy foreign currencies accruing under title I of this act to
meet costs (other than personnel and administrative costs
of cooperating sponsors, distributing agencies, and
recipient agencies) directed to community and other selfhelp activities designed to alleviate the causes for the need
for such aid.
Through December 31, 1975, appropriations totaling
$8,500 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 pro
ceeds from loss, damage, and other claims are applied
against Commodity Credit Corporation costs to reflect a
reduction in appropriation requests. No donations of
agricultural commodities shall be made to North Vietnam
unless authorized by act of Congress enacted after July
1,1973.

In addition to the foreign assistance programs described,
the Commodity Credit Corporation conducted a special
export program for bartered materials for the supple
mental stockpile (7 U.S.C. 1856). This program was
closed out in 1971. Barter activities are now limited to
barter for offshore procurement for other government
agencies on a reimbursable basis.
Effective at the beginning of fiscal year 1974, Barter

This account includes funds to cover expenses of
programs 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 office in Prairie Village plays an
important role in administering support programs and
the field operations stemming from producer loan and
purchase agreements, inventory management, and mer
chandising 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: Agricultural conservation program; emergency
conservation measures; Water Bank Act program;
Appalachian Region conservation program; conservation
reserve program; feed grain, wheat, and cotton programs;
cropland conversion program; cropland adjustment pro
gram; dairy and beekeeper indemnity programs; Wool
Act program ; and commodity support and related
programs including acreage allotment and marketing
quota programs.
The activities carried out by the Service fall within
three major categories:
1. Program formulation and appraisal.— The supply ad
justment, conservation, and commodity support programs,
and the management and merchandising of commodities
acquired under the support program, have a tremendous
impact on the national and (to a lesser extent) the inter
national economy. This activity provides for constant
review of the effectiveness of these programs. It also
provides for the analysis of data to formulate more effec
tive 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)
A PPENDi x TO THE B U D G ET FOR FISCAL Y E A R 1977
developing program regulations and procedures; (b)
holding meetings with employees and producers to discuss
new programs or changes in existing programs; (c) collect
ing and compiling basic data for individual farms;
(d) establishing individual farm allotments, bases and
yields; (e) notifying producers of allotments, productivity
indexes, and payment rates; (f) determining farm market
ing allocations; (g) handling appeals; (h) conducting
referendum» and certifying results; (i) checking compliance
with acreage allotments; (j) developing pooling agree
ments under which several farmers work jointly to solve
a common conservation problem which cannot be solved
by individual action; (k) issuing marketing cards so that
production from the allotted acreage can be marketed
without penalty; (1) processing producer requests for
conservation cost-sharing; (m) processing commodity loan
documents and issuing sight drafts; and (n) making ap
praisals for disaster payments.
3.
Inventory management and merchandising.— This
activity includes: (a) overall management of CCC-owned
commodities; (b) selling commodities; (c) donating
commodities; and (d) accounting for loans and com
modities. The total value of all commodities owned by
CCC on June 30, 1975, was about $416.1 million.
The number of programs and the volume of work
performed by the Service have been decreasing at a
considerable rate over the last several years. Total
man-years used by the Service have decreased from
21,343 in fiscal year 1971 to 14,013 in fiscal year 1975. The
volume of work in fiscal year 1975 under some of the
major programs financed from this account is set forth

The primary objectives are: (1) to encourage farmers
and ranchers to carry out long-term conservation measures
that emphasize enduring conservation benefits, (2) to
achieve desirable land-use adjustments, and (3) to provide
community benefits and the general improvement of the
total environment through a combination of economically
sound public and private investments.
The authorizing legislation allows cost-sharing with
farmers and ranchers on both an annual and long-term
basis. The program emphasis has been on meeting some
of the more pressing farm related conservation and en
vironmental problems in rural areas, on practices for
long-range protection of the environment, and on practices
that provide substantial benefits to the public at the least
possible cost.
The program is administered in each county by the
ASC county committee, with review and approval by
State ASCS committees and in consultation with other
agencies. The committees select the approved costsharing practices best suited to meet the needs of their
area.
Loans from Commodity Credit Corporation were used
to make advance payments to vendors for the 1975 pro
gram during 1975. These payments are for conservation

The purpose of this program is to preserve the wetlands
of the Nation. The program was authorized by the Water
Bank Act, approved December 19, 1970.
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 char
acter 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 conservation
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. Under this program, agreements for
periods of 5 and up to 10 years were approved only in
1966 and 1967. The last of these agreements will expire
in 1977.
This program assisted farmers to divert cropland from
the production of surplus crops to other uses that pro
moted the development and conservation of our soil,
water, forest, wildlife, and recreational resources. In
return for diverting cropland, producers received ad
justment payments. They also were eligible to receive
cost-sharing assistance for establishing approved landtreatment measures.
Under the public access provision of the program, ad
ditional 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 program's Greenspan provision, funds were
also made available to Federal, State, or local govern

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
income-producing, public benefit uses.
The agreements, not to exceed 10 years, provided for
payments, the furnishing of materials and services, and
other assistance to farmers. In return, farmers changed
the land-use and installed and maintained conservation
practices. Adjustment payments were authorized to be
made either upon approval of the agreement or on an
annual installment basis. Land treatment practice pay
ments were made after the practice was installed.
The law placed a limit of $10 million on payments made
in a calendar year under signed agreements.
No new agreements have been made since 1967. The
last agreements under the program will expire in fiscal
year 1976.

Under this program the Department makes indemni
fication 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
(November 30, 1970), to manufacturers of dairy products
who have been directed to remove their products because
they 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, suffered
losses of honey bees after January 1, 1967, as a result of
utilization of economic poisons near or adjacent to the
property on which the beehives of such beekeepers were
located.

The Federal Corp Insurance Corporation, a whollyowned Government Corporation, was created on February
16, 1938 (7. U.S.C. 1501-1520), to carry out the provisions
of the Federal Crop Insurance Act. The purpose of this
Act is to promote the national welfare by improving the
economic stability of agriculture through a sound system
of crop insurance, and to provide the means for the re
search 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 14 regional offices. Sales and servicing
of contracts at the county level is performed by private
agents under contractual agreements with the Corpora
tion 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 under
writing and actuarial analysis work.
Budget program.— The program for fiscal year 1977 will
provide crop insurance protection to farmers amounting
to approximately $1.6 billion on the following commodi
ties: 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 1976 and 1977, as compared with
1975. Amounts in the 1975 column are actual, and pertain
to the 1974 crop year. The 1976 column pertains to the
1975 crop year, and the 1977 column pertains to the 1976

Financing.— Capital stock of $100 million is authorized
to be subscribed by the United States. As of June 30,197^ »
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 workmg
capital for the Corporation. Receipts which are for de
posit to this fund come mainly from premiums paid bv
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 Fed
eral 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 $73.6 million from
operations will provide adequate operating funds for fiscal
year 1977, unless heavy losses occur early in the fiscal year.
Operating results and financial condition.— As of June
30, 1975 the Corporation reflected a deficit of $15.2 million
which is a change of minus $18.5 million over the surplus
of the year before. This resulted from increased indemni
ties over premiums for crop year 1974 to cover expenses
paid from the fund. Crop year 1974 premiums of $54.0
million were lower than indemnities by $9.2 million, re
sulting in a loss ratio of 1.17.
A 0.80 loss ratio is estimated for crop year 1975. Pre
miums of $73.6 million are estimated to exceed indemnities
by $14.7 million. For the crop years 1948 through 1974,
premium income ($798.3 million) exceeded indemnity
costs ($736.9 million) by $61.4 million; the loss ratio for
the period was 0.92. Premium income exceeded indemnity
costs in 15 of the 27 years.
The following table summarizes the insurance operations
by commodities for 1975,1976, and 1977:
