BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT

To the Congress of the United States:

This is the budget of the United States Government for 1965.The preparation of this budget was the first major task to confront

me as President, and it has been a heavy one. Many decisions of greatimportance have had to be made in a brief span of weeks. I have donemy best, and I am satisfied that the budget which I am sending tothe Congress will advance our Nation toward greater national secu-rity, a stronger economy, and realization of the American dreamof individual security and equal opportunity for all of our people.

In formulating my budget, I have been guided by two principles:

• I have been guided by the principle that spending by the FederalGovernment, in and of itself, is neither bad nor good. I t can bebad when it involves overstaffing of Government agencies, or need-less duplication of functions, or poor management, or public serv-ices which cost more than they are worth, or the intrusion of gov-ernment into areas where it does not belong. It can be good when itis put to work efficiently in the interests of our national strength,economic progress, and human compassion.

• I have been guided by the principle that an austere budget neednot be and should not be a standstill budget. When budgetaryrestraint leads the Government to turn its back on new needs andnew problems, economy becomes but another word for stagnation.But when vigorous pruning of old programs and procedures releasesthe funds to meet new challenges and opportunities, economy be-comes the companion of progress.

This is, I believe, a budget of economy and progress. On the onehand, it calls for a reduction from the preceding year in total admin-istrative budget expenditures—and it is only the second budget in 9years to do so. It calls for a substantial reduction in total civilianemployment in the executive branch—and it is the first budget to do sosince the practice of totaling the employment estimates in the budgetwas initiated in January 1956. It cuts the deficit in half, and carriesus a giant step toward the achievement of a balanced budget in a full-employment, full-prosperity economy.

8 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

On the other hand, this budget safeguards the peace by providingfor the further strengthening of the most formidable defense estab-lishment the world has ever known; it recommends continued militaryassistance to those nations menaced by Communist aggression, directand indirect; it includes economic assistance to those nations whichare willing to take the steps necessary to guard their freedom andindependence through economic self-help; it provides the funds neces-sary to advance our mastery of space toward the achievement of amanned lunar landing in this decade; it provides for the soundmanagement and development of our natural and agriculturalresources; and in its recommendations relating to education, hous-ing, manpower training, health, and employment opportunities foryouth, it provides more funds than ever before in our history for thefuller development of our Nation's most important resource—itspeople.

Moreover, this budget makes provision for the initiation of a newand major effort to break the vicious circle of chronic poverty, whichdenies to millions of our fellow citizens a just participation in thebenefits of life in our country. We owe to every young person inAmerica a fair start in life—and this means that we must attack thosedeficiencies in education, training, health, and job opportunities bywhich the fetters of poverty are passed on from parents to children.The attack on poverty must rely on local initiative and leadership;and the resources of the local, State, and Federal Governments must bemobilized to support these efforts. I will shortly send to the Congressa special message conveying my recommendations for the attack onpoverty.

The urgent and necessary program increases recommended in thisbudget will be financed out of the savings made possible by strict econ-omy measures and by an exhaustive screening of existing programs.As a result of the highly successful cost reduction program launchedin 1962 by the Secretary of Defense, the 1965 program of the Depart-ment of Defense will require over $2 billion less in appropriationsthan would otherwise be the case—a sum greater than the 1965cost of the new programs I am recommending to the Congress.Department of Defense expenditures will decline by more than $1billion from 1964 to 1965, and additional savings are expected to berealized in agriculture, atomic energy, postal services, veterans bene-fits, and in various lending programs through substitution of privatefor public credit.

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT

My proposals call for administrative budget expenditures in 1965of $97.9 billion—$900 million less than was requested in the 1964 budgetand $500 million less than I now estimate will be spent in 1964. This re-duction in expenditures will be achieved despite a steady growth inthe workload of nearly every civilian agency of Government—rangingall the way from the number of income tax returns to the number ofvisitors to our national parks. The reduction in expenditures will beachieved despite built-in and relatively uncontrollable expenditureincreases resulting from past commitments and legislative provisions,including higher costs for interest on the debt and for military andcivilian pay increases required by law.

Administrative budget receipts are expected to increase in 1965 to$93.0 billion, $4.6 billion over 1964. This increase, reflecting theexpectation of a strongly growing economy spurred by prompt enact-ment of the tax program, takes into account the estimated revenuelosses from the new tax rates.

The resulting administrative budget deficit of $4.9 billion for 1965is $5.1 billion below the deficit now estimated for the current yearand marks an important first step toward a balanced budget.

The traditional administrative budget does not include a numberof important Federal activities financed through trust funds, suchas social security and Federal aid to highways. These activities andthe special taxes which finance them have substantial economic effectsand serve significant public purposes. A comprehensive disclosureof Federal finances is provided by the consolidated cash statement ofFederal receipts from and payments to the public.

On the cash basis, total payments to the public are estimated at$122.7 billion for 1965. Total receipts from the public are estimatedat $119.7 billion, resulting in a $2.9 billion excess of payments overreceipts. The estimates of cash payments and receipts in 1965 reflect

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 11

the normal, built-in growth of trust fund benefit payments, and theemployment and excise tkx revenues which finance them.

Another measure of Federal finances—one which emphasizes theimpact of the Government's fiscal activities on the economy—is basedon the national income accounts. Under this concept, Federal fiscaldata, including the trust funds, are generally estimated on an accrualrather than a cash basis, and eliminate transactions, such as loans,which do not directly result in production and income. These dataindicate an excess of payments over receipts of $2.8 billion in fiscalyear 1965.

THE ECONOMY AND TAX REDUCTION

The Federal budget is a detailed plan for managing the businessof Government, but it is more than that: In setting the relationshipbetween Government expenditures and taxation, the budget is also apowerful economic force which can help or hamper our efforts toachieve stable prosperity and steady growth.

The expenditure proposals in this budget are ample to satisfy ourmost pressing needs for governmental services, but the broad economicstimulus needed to carry our economy to new high ground in produc-tion, income, and employment will not come principally from Govern-ment outlays. I believe—as did President Kennedy—that the pri-mary impetus needed to move our economy ahead should come, inpresent circumstances, from an expansion of the private sector ratherthan the public sector. Therefore, the earliest possible enactment ofthe tax reduction bill now before the Congress is an integral and vitalpart of my budgetary proposals.

Our country is currently in its fourth postwar period of economicexpansion—a period which started in February 1961, and has nowlasted nearly 3 years.

Preliminary estimates indicate that the Nation's total output ofgoods and services—our gross national product—rose to $585 billionin calendar year 1963, an increase of 5.4% over 1962.

Over the same period, personal income rose 4.7%, industrial pro-duction 5.1%, and corporate profits 10.5%.

Price stability has been maintained for the sixth consecutive year.This is a record of strong expansion—and yet the expansion has

not been strong enough to absorb the margin of idle workers and idleplant capacity which continues to tarnish our economy's performance.Almost 3 years after the trough of the last recession, and despite thecreation of 2% million new jobs in our economy, the unemploymentrate now stands at 5y2%. Our factories continue to produce belowtheir optimum rate. As a nation we are producing at a rate at least$30 billion below our comfortable capacity. This is a ga/p for whichwe are paying a high price in idle resources, both human and physical.

12 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

This gap must be closed. I t must be closed—as President Kennedyurged a year ago—by loosening uthe checkrein of taxes on privatespending and productive incentives." It must be closed promptly,for the unemployed have already waited too long for jobs which canbe create^ simply by allowing our people to spend and invest a greaterpart of the money they earn.

The bill approved by the House of Representatives last Septembermeets the fundamental requirements for tax action in 1964. I proposeonly two changes in that bill:

• The bill provides for a reduction in the rate of withholding onwages and salaries from 18% to 15% for calendar 1964, startingon January 1, 1964. Since that date has already been passed, theinstitution of the 15% withholding rate at a later date in 1964would require substantial additional refunds to taxpayers nextyear. A corresponding part of the economic stimulus providedby the tax program would be delayed until then. Hence, I pro-pose that the withholding rate be reduced to 14% rather than 15%,effective as soon as possible after enactment. This will assure thatthe beneficial effects of the 1964 tax reductions are felt immediately,instead of being postponed, in part, for a year. It will simplifyprocedures for taxpayers and their employers by making unneces-sary another change in the withholding rate in 1965, as provided inthe House bill. Moreover, the change will also maintain approxi-mately the same division between the fiscal year 1964 and 1965revenue impact of tax reduction as would have resulted from theHouse bill. The revenue estimates in this budget assume approvalof this change.

• The House bill fails to close the loophole by which property trans-ferred at death now escapes capital gains taxation, but it never-theless would reduce the rate of taxation on capital gains. With-out the former provision, the latter provision is unwarranted, andit should be deleted from the bill.

With these two changes, I urge the enactment of the House billby the Senate.

With prompt enactment of the tax program, economic expansion in1964 should proceed briskly. Reflecting the effects of the first stage ofthe tax reduction, the gross national product in calendar year 1964should rise to about $623 billion, plus or minus $5 billion. This issubstantially higher than the GNP which could be expected in theabsence of prompt enactment of the tax legislation. In fact, sinceexpectations of a tax reduction have been incorporated into the for-ward planning of many business firms, the effect on the economy offailure to pass the legislation swiftly might be deeply disturbing.

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 13

As the tax reduction takes full effect, its stimulus to private con-sumption and investment will shrink the $30 billion gap betweenthe Nation's actual and potential output, and provide approximately2 million additional jobs for the unemployed and the new workersentering the labor force. As economic activity expands, and personaland business incomes increase, Federal revenues will also rise. Thehigher revenues, combined with continuing pressure for economy andefficiency in Federal expenditure programs, should hasten the achieve-ment of a balanced budget in an economy of full prosperity.

Income tax revisions.—The bill currently before the Senate willreduce income tax liabilities by $11.1 billion. Individual rate reduc-tions and structural changes account for about 80% of the total taxreduction. The remaining 20% reflects a reduction in corporate taxes,providing enhanced incentives for new investment.

Once the tax bill becomes fully effective in calendar year 1965,the entire schedule of individual income tax rates will fall from thepresent range of 20% to 91% to a range of 14% to 70%, and the cur-rent first $2,000 bracket of taxable income will be divided into foursuccessive brackets of $500 each.

All corporations will pay lower tax rates, with incorporated smallbusinesses receiving the largest proportionate tax rate reduction be-cause the tax rate on the first $25,000 of their taxable income is reducedfrom 30% to 22%. Large corporations (with estimated tax liabilitiesabove $100,000) will have to speed up their tax payments in order toreduce the lag between the time when taxable profits are earned andthe time when taxes are paid; however, this speedup plan is gradual,shifting the timing of corporation tax collections a bit each year forthe next 7 years.

The combination of the investment tax credit and the revision ofdepreciation guidelines achieved in 1962, plus the $2% billion tax ratereductions and structural changes proposed for corporations in thepending bill, will result in a total reduction of about $5 billion incorporate tax liabilities.

The bill also contains many changes in the income tax laws thatare designed to reduce the weight of taxes where the burden is mostunfair, and to correct special tax advantages which will no longer beequitable under the proposed structure.

Excise tax extension.—The Congress should extend several cur-rent excise tax rates which will otherwise decline or expire on July 1,1964. These excise taxes have been continued at the present ratesthrough annual extensions for the past several years. Without exten-sion, revenues would fall by $1.7 billion during fiscal year 1965.

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 15

User charges.—-Many Federal Government programs furnish spe-cific, identifiable benefits to the individuals and businesses usingthem. Equity to all taxpayers demands that those who enjoy thebenefits should bear a greater share of the costs. I am, therefore,renewing recommendations for the enactment of user charges for com-mercial and general aviation and for transportation on inlandwaterways.

Appropriate fees should also be assessed in other areas where theGovernment provides special services. New legislation is necessaryin several cases to carry out this policy—such as a revision of patentfees to reflect today's costs more adequately—and appropriate pro-posals are either before the Congress or will be forwarded this year.

NEW OBLIGATIONAL AUTHORITY

Obligations incurred by Federal agencies under authority pro-vided by the Congress are the forerunners of Federal expenditures.Expenditure control, therefore, depends substantially upon carefulcontrol of obligations.

In this budget, new obligational authority of $103.8 billion is pro-posed in the administrative budget for fiscal year 1965. This is $1.2billion above the amount now estimated for fiscal year 1964, but is $4.1billion less than was originally requested for the current year in the1964 budget. The amount recommended for 1965 includes $50.9 bil-lion for the Department of Defense (including military assistance),$120 million less than the amount for the current year.

the recently amended manpower training program and the proposedyouth employment legislation; and $500 million for special appropria-tions requested for new community programs to attack poverty. Ma-jor decreases include $1.5 billion for the Housing and Home FinanceAgency, reflecting nonrecurring authority requested in 1964, and $1.3billion for the Department of Agriculture.

Of the total amount proposed, $40 billion will become availableunder permanent authorizations without further congressional action,including $27.6 billion becoming automatically available as revenuesflow into the trust funds. In the administrative budget, the principalpermanent appropriation is to pay the interest on the public debtwhich in 1965 is estimated at $11 billion, $0.4 billion more than in1964.

For the current fiscal year, the Congress is requested to enact $4.2billion of additional new obligational authority to provide neededfunds for housing and space programs and to finance legislation en-acted last year for which no appropriations were provided—such asincreased military compensation, broadened manpower developmentactivities, aid to higher education, vocational education activities, andmental retardation programs. Including supplemental authoriza-tions, a total of $102.6 billion in new obligational authority is esti-mated for fiscal year 1964 in the administrative budget.

GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS AND EXPENDITURES

The expenditures proposed in this budget are necessary to meetthe needs of our growing society, promote the basic strength of theNation, honor our worldwide commitments, and fulfill our financialobligations.

Between 1955 and 1965, our population will grow by almost 30million people, about 17%, with the largest increases in the very youngand the very old age groups. To keep pace, the Federal Governmenthas had to continue existing public services and provide the additionalservices needed for future growth. The expansion of the economy,even though falling short of its potential in recent years, has helpedprovide the resources for both increased public and private services.

We will continue to experience rapid population growth while weseek to improve the rate of economic growth, and over the long runthis will put upward pressure on Government expenditures for civilianpurposes. Nevertheless, wherever and whenever possible, we shouldtry to reduce costs, curtail less urgent activities, and find other savingsto permit essential new or growing services to be financed at the leastcost to the taxpayer. That has been the policy in this budget. Essen-tial services have been provided while administrative budget expendi-tures decline by over one-half billion dollars between the fiscal years1964 and 1965.

The attack on poverty.—In this budget I have provided over $1 bil-lion of new obligational authority to begin an all-out attack on theproblem of poverty in the United States. In a nation as rich and pro-ductive as ours we cannot tolerate a situation in which millions ofAmericans do not have the education, health, and job opportunities fora decent and respected place as productive citizens. The vicious circleof poverty—in which one generation's poverty, ignorance, and diseasebreed the same problems for the next—must be broken. I propose tobreak that circle by raising the educational, skill, and health levelsof the younger generation, increasing their job opportunities and help-ing their families to provide a better home life. I propose a programwhich relies upon the traditional and time-tested American methods oforganized local community action to help individuals, families, andcommunities to help themselves.

Poverty stems from no one source, but reflects a multitude ofcauses. Correspondingly, a number of individual programs have beendeveloped over the years to attack these individual problems of jobopportunities, education, and training. Other specific programs dealwith the closely related areas of health, housing, welfare, and agri-cultural services. I propose to establish a means of bringing togetherthese separate programs—Federal, State, and local—in an effort toachieve a unified and intensified approach to this complex problem, inwhich each separate element reinforces the others.

Under this proposal, locally initiated, comprehensive communityaction programs would be developed, to focus the various availableresources on the roots of poverty in urban and rural areas. I shallshortly transmit to the Congress legislation initiating this attack and

authorizing, in 1965, $500 million of new obligational authorityspecifically for this purpose. Additional funds for the local commu-nity action programs will be available from existing agency programs.Moreover, other legislative proposals, recommended elsewhere in thismessage, will contribute important new resources to the attack onpoverty. The Youth Employment Act, the National Service Corps,and the community work and training program, are examples of suchproposals. Of particular significance will be the education proposal

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 19

for project grants to meet special educational needs. All told, in 1965more than $1 billion of Federal resources under existing and proposedlegislation would be concentrated, through local community action pro-grams, in an intensive and coordinated attack on poverty.

Special emphasis is also being given to the economic needs of the165,000-square-mile Appalachian region of the United States, whichhas been largely bypassed in the growth of prosperity in recent years.This emphasis by the Government, combined with the resources andactivities of State, local, and private institutions and enterprises inthe region, will be directed toward the development of the natural re-sources of the region, and the promotion of better employment oppor-tunities for its people.

National defense.—To preserve freedom and protect our vitalnational interests in these recent years of uneasy peace, this Nationhas invested heavily in the improvement of its defenses. We havechosen not to concede our opponents supremacy in any type of poten-tial conflict, be it nuclear war, conventional warfare, or guerrilla con-flict. We have now increased the strength of our forces so that, facedwith any threat of aggression, we can make a response which is ap-propriate to the situation. With present forces and those nowplanned, we will continue to maintain this vital military capability.

During the past 3 years, we have achieved notable increases in mili-tary readiness, including:

• A 100% increase in the number of nuclear weapons available inthe strategic alert forces.• A 60% increase in the tactical nuclear forces deployed in WesternEurope.• A 45% increase in the number of combat-ready Army divisions.• A 35% increase in the number of tactical fighter squadrons.• A 75% increase in airlift capability to improve mobility.These rapid gains result from an increase in cash payments for mili-

tary purposes from $47.7 billion in 1961 to $56.0 billion in 1964.Along wTith the high level of preparedness we have now achieved,vigorous efforts to promote economies in the management of ourArmed Forces have been producing significant savings. We aretherefore able to propose a decrease of $800 million in cash outlays($1.3 billion in the administrative budget) for national defense infiscal year 1965 while maintaining our position of strength.

Nevertheless, national defense expenditures will remain high.These payments, estimated at $55.2 billion ($54.0 billion in the admin-istrative budget) in 1965, will provide for all essential military pur-poses, including substantial improvements in our present and plannedmilitary capabilities. For example, the 1965 budget provides for

2 0 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

additional Minuteman missiles, further improvements in our air, land,and sea tactical forces, procurement of additional airlift aircraft, andcontinued research and development to ensure our ability to counternew threats.

To reinforce the total defense effort, the Congress should authorizefunds for fallout shelters in public buildings, schools, hospitals, andother nonprofit institutions.

Although we continue to seek a relaxation of tensions, we cannotrelax our guard. While the nuclear test ban treaty is a hopeful sign,neither that treaty nor other developments to date have, by themselves,reduced our defense requirements. We will continue undergroundnuclear testing, maintain our above ground test facilities in readycondition, maintain strong weapons laboratories, and continue thedevelopment of detection devices. However, because of the nuclearstrength we have achieved, it will be possible to cut production ofenriched uranium by 25% and to shut down four plutonium piles.

Our inventories of strategic and critical materials are being re-viewed to assure that they are necessary for current civil and militarydefense requirements. I recommend that the Congress enact legisla-tion to improve the management of these materials and simplify thedisposal of those no longer needed.

International affairs and finance.—The less-developed nationsare engaged in a critical struggle for political independence and eco-nomic betterment. This struggle takes many forms, from combatingarmed aggression and subversion in Vietnam to advancing na-tional efforts to reduce poverty and illiteracy in South Asia, LatinAmerica, and other areas. Upon the outcome of this struggle willdepend the stability and security of much of the world. Through ourprograms of foreign assistance, we provide aid to these free peoplesand thereby advance our own vital interests. It is essential that wecontinue, with a small portion of our great resources and technicalknowledge, to promote in the emerging nations hope and orderlyprogress, replacing misery, hostility, and violence.

The $2.4 billion of new obligational authority recommended for1965 in this budget for the programs of the Agency for InternationalDevelopment is $1.1 billion less than originally requested for 1964.It will make the total 1965 obligational availability for the programequivalent to the amount provided by the Congress for 1964 includingunobligated funds carried forward from the prior year. The 1965recommendation represents a prudent assessment of the funds requiredto fulfill the obligations we have undertaken and the opportunities weseek in a changing and challenging world.

The amount requested reflects a continuing effort to increase the

Page 21: bus_1965

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 2 1

effectiveness and efficiency of our assistance programs. We are reduc-ing AID staffing by several hundred employees, proportionately one ofthe largest reductions of any agency in Government. We are stress-ing the necessity for recipient countries to take adequate self-helpmeasures. The 1965 request reflects the successes we have had inreducing the dependence of some nations upon the low-cost foreignaid loans made by the Agency for International Development; by1965 a number of countries will have turned to other sources and typesof loans more consistent with their increasing economic strength.

On the other hand, the 1965 budget does not allow for suddenopportunities that sometimes present themselves in internationaleconomic affairs. We must be able to take quick advantage of situa-tions in which resolute and decisive actions can turn threats to thefree world into constructive evidence of our determination to pre-serve the peace. We must also be able to take advantage of oppor-tunities in which swift action can advance us dramatically alongthe road to free world cooperation and prosperity. Should suchopportunities arise, I will request prompt action by the Congress toprovide any additional funds needed to meet emerging requirements.

Our partners in the Alliance for Progress will continue to receiveour most determined support and generous cooperation. Recentimprovements in the organization of the Alliance should permit anacceleration of this program and foster ever greater hemispheric unity.I am therefore proposing an expanded bilateral program for theAlliance in 1965. Upon completion of negotiations and arrangementswith other member countries, legislation will also be proposed toprovide additional funds for long-term, low-interest loans by the Inter-American Development Bank.

The sincerity of our purpose overseas is exemplified by the highlysuccessful work of the Peace Corps. As a result of this record andthe gratifying flood of requests for the services of the Corps, fundsare requested in 1965 for 14,000 volunteers, as compared with 10,500in 1964.

Space research and technology.—Our plan to place a man on themoon in this decade remains unchanged. It is an ambitious and im-portant goal. In addition to providing great scientific benefits,it will demonstrate that our capability in space is second to noother nation's. However, it is clear that no matter how brilliantour scientists and engineers, how farsighted our planners and man-agers, or how frugal our administrators and contracting personnel,we cannot reach this goal without sufficient funds. There is nosecond-class ticket to space.

Appropriations enacted for 1964 for the National Aeronautics andSpace Administration were $600 million below the amount requested.

2 2 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

As a result, major development programs leading to the manned lunarlanding have fallen behind schedule. Careful replanning of the entireprogram, including a reduction in the number of test flights, will offsetsome of this delay. Even so, more funds are needed in 1964, and I amtherefore recommending a supplemental appropriation of $141 millionfor this year.

For 1965, I am requesting appropriations of $5.3 billion, $63million above the 1964 amount, including the proposed supplementalappropriation The 1964 and 1965 recommendations represent theminimum amount needed to achieve our goals in space. The estimatedincrease of $590 million in expenditures in 1965 is due principally topayments required by commitments made in 1964 and earlier years.With the leveling off of appropriations, annual outlays should remainrelatively stable in subsequent years.

In addition to the manned space flight program, though related toit, funds are included to support unmanned space flights for lunarexploration and supporting research and development. Funds arealso included for scientific satellites, planetary probes, and experimentswith meteorological and communications satellites.

Agriculture and agricultural resources.—At the present time, ourfarms are able to produce all we need for domestic use and all we canreasonably expect to sell abroad with substantially less land and man-power than are now being used. As a result, we have crop surpluses,inadequate farm income, underemployed rural people, and improperland use. A wide range of Government programs, including the feedgrain and wheat programs, rural area development, and the moreconstructive use of surplus production at home and in Food for Peace,have Improved this situation. Nevertheless, we need further effortsto help the farm economy adjust to its rapidly changing economic andtechnological environment and to help the Nation take advantage ofits remarkably productive agriculture.

I shall shortly transmit to the Congress my recommendations foragricultural legislation. Included will be cotton and dairy proposalsthat will decrease by $230 million the estimated expenditures of theCommodity Credit Corporation in 1965.

Titles I and I I of Public Law 480 (Agricultural Trade Develop-ment and Assistance Act), the principal authority for our Food forPeace program, should be extended beyond their expiration date ofDecember 31, 1964. Legislation also should be enacted to encouragethe shifting of more of our present cropland to less intensive uses.

Federal payments in 1965 for agriculture and agricultural resourcesare estimated at $5.1 billion, a reduction of $1.3 billion from 1964.

Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

Page 23: bus_1965

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 2 3

This reduction is expected to occur mainly in farm commodity pro-grams. A part, however, depends upon congressional approval oflegislation proposed last year authorizing the Farmers Home Ad-ministration to insure private credit for financing the rural housingprogram and a new proposal providing for fees to cover the costs ofmeat, poultry, and grain inspection services.

Natural resources.—We must manage and develop our naturalresources wisely, to meet the needs of an increasing population andgrowing economy. Even within the limits of a restrictive budgetarypolicy, public investments must be made in resource conservation anddevelopment and in research to enable us to use more effectively ourwater, land, minerals, forests, and other resources. Federal cashpayments of $2.7 billion are estimated in 1965 for these purposes.

The budget provides for continuing construction of going projectswhich will supply water to our cities, industries, and farms; abatewater pollution and improve water quality; control destructive floods;produce electric power; improve navigation; and provide recreationalopportunities. Provision is also made for the Corps of Engineersand the Bureau of Reclamation to start 44 new projects with an esti-mated total Federal cost of $512 million.

The need for outdoor recreational areas and facilities is growingrapidly. To help meet this need, legislation should be enacted toassist States in providing recreational opportunities. Legislationshould also be enacted to preserve seashore and other areas with im-portant recreation potential, and to protect our remaining wildernessareas.

Commerce and transportation.—To encourage continuing growthof our Nation's millions of privately owned businesses, the Govern-ment provides extensive aids, particularly to smaller businesses andareas of persistent unemployment, and helps assure the availability ofadequate transportation and communication facilities.

Enactment of legislation already approved by the Senate is essentialto provide the additional authorizations necessary for the area redevel-opment program to go forward and to permit necessary improvementsin that program.

Major proposed revisions in our national transportation policy arealso pending before the Congress. These proposals would make sub-stantial contributions toward a more efficient transportation systemby placing greater reliance on the forces of competition and improvingthe effectiveness of Government regulation. Extensive hearings havebeen held on these proposals and I recommend their prompt enactment.

2 4 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

Commerce and Transportation

Total Federal payments for commerce and transportation programswill amount to $6.6 billion in 1965. This is about the same amount asin 1964. Higher outlays from the Highway trust fund (financedby special taxes on highway users), increased loans and grants to re-develop depressed areas, and financing of a design competition for thecivil supersonic transport aircraft will be offset by reductions for thetemporary accelerated public works program and the postal service,and by strict economies in all programs.

Housing and community development.—In the Housing Act of1961, the Congress substantially broadened Federal aids to privateenterprise and local public agencies to help improve housing condi-tions and rebuild urban communities. The act also made funds avail-able to finance these programs for several years. In several cases,these funds are now almost depleted. I am therefore recommendinglegislation to provide authority and funds for continuing such pro-grams as urban renewal, urban planning and open space grants,housing loans for the elderly, and low-rent public housing. In addi-tion, I am recommending important revisions and expansions essentialto increase the effectiveness of these programs in meeting criticalneeds—particularly the needs of lower income groups whose inferiorearning power seriously handicaps their efforts to achieve adequateliving conditions.

Page 25: bus_1965

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 25

Legislation is already being considered by the Congress tostrengthen Federal aids to urban communities in order to help mod-ernize and enlarge necessary mass transportation facilities. I urgethat action be completed soon on this vitally needed program.

To carry on and improve housing and community development pro-grams without adding to net budgetary requirements, we shall con-tinue to sell to private lenders federally owned mortgages acquiredin earlier years. New legislation is proposed to increase the effec-tiveness of the sales program. The proceeds of such sales and otherreceipts of housing and community development programs are ex-pected to more than offset payments for these programs in 1965, withresulting net receipts estimated at $40 million.

Health, labor, and welfare.—This budget places major stress onstrengthening the productivity of our labor force, improving thehealth of our people, and reducing the fear of economic insecurity.In 1965, the Federal Government will strengthen the health, labor,and welfare activities which contribute to these objectives. Paymentsfor these activities, mainly from self-financing trust funds, will be$28.6 billion, about $1.3 billion more than in 1964.

Most of the payments are for social insurance and public welfareprograms which complement efforts by individuals and families toprovide for their own security. These programs have been signifi-cantly improved by legislation enacted in recent years. To fostergreater self-sufficiency and reduced reliance on public welfare, theCongress should enact proposed legislation to create a National Serv-ice Corps and expand demonstration projects in community workprograms.

The budget proposals for health activities in 1965 will continueto strengthen the National Institutes of Health and the Food andDrug Administration and will improve environmental health pro-tection. The budget provides for rapid progress under the legis-lation passed in the last session of the Congress to combat mentalillness and retardation, increase the number of doctors and dentists,and reduce air pollution. New legislation is needed this year to im-prove nurse education and to extend the Hill-Burton program for con-struction of medical facilities, expanding and redirecting it to meetpressing needs for nursing homes and for modernizing urbanhospitals.

Pending legislation to provide urgently needed health insurancefor aged persons through the social security system should also beenacted. Provision should be made for benefits to be paid fromadministrative budget funds to those not eligible under the socialsecurity system. Since benefit payments would not start until 1966,this provision would not affect the 1965 budget.

Health, Labor, and Welfare

For manpower training and services, the budget recommends forboth 1964 and 1965 the full authorization provided under the recentamendments to the Manpower Development and Training Act, Morethan 275,000 unemployed workers, including youths found unqualifiedfor military service, will be trained on jobs and in classrooms during1965. Of these, about 60,000 will receive basic literacy education.Prompt enactment of the Youth Employment Act is needed to pro-vide work and training in camps and in hometown projects for anestimated 60,000 youths. Legislation is again recommended to im-prove the State unemployment insurance programs financed from theunemployment trust fund; this legislation would extend coverage tomore people and lengthen the duration of benefits.

Education.—Bills enacted last year for Federal assistance tohigher education and enlarged Federal support for vocational educa-tion mark important milestones in efforts to improve our educationalsystem on a national scale. The budget includes supplemental appro-priations for 1964 so that these measures can be implementedpromptly.

But much remains to be done. Important elements of the educationprogram proposed last year have not yet been enacted. In particular,attention must be turned to the basic foundation of our educationalsystem—the elementary and secondary schools. First, I recommendenactment of pending legislation providing grants to raise teachers'salaries and build critically needed classrooms. Second, to supple-

Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

Page 27: bus_1965

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 2 7

ment this general aid, I am also recommending an expanded programproviding project grants to meet special educational needs and toprovide special services for schoolchildren, particularly for use inconnection with community action programs to combat poverty.

The Congress should also enact the remaining portions of last year'sproposals, such as the federally guaranteed loan program and thework-study program for college students; and the proposals directedat special educational needs of other individuals, including graduatestudents, prospective and existing teachers, all citizens who appreciatethe advantages of good public libraries, adults who have missed theopportunity for basic schooling in the "3-BV, and those who seekto make learning a continuing process through university extensionservices.

In keeping with the continuing need to strengthen the scientific andtechnological resources of the Nation, the budget also provides for ex-pansion of the National Science Foundation's basic research andscience education programs. Major emphasis will be placed on in-creasing support for graduate students in the sciences and onstrengthening science instruction and facilities in colleges and uni-versities, one objective of which is to develop additional top-rankingcenters of graduate study in the sciences.

Expenditures for education are estimated at $1.6 billion in 1965, anincrease of $0.3 billion over 1964. New obligational authority of$3.1 billion is requested, up $1:2 billion from 1964.

Veterans benefits and services.—We have a lasting obligation tothose who died or were disabled in the defense of the Nation, and totheir dependents. During the past 3 years a cost-of-living increase indisability compensation rates has been provided, and increases in bene-fits have been granted for the widows, children, and dependent par-ents of veterans who died as a result of military service. In addition,vocational rehabilitation programs have been extended to disabledpeacetime ex-servicemen and to those wartime veterans who wereprecluded from entering training within the regular time limits.

In 1965, the Federal Government will spend $5.5 billion on its pro-grams for veterans. This is $425 million less than in 1964, mainly be-cause of an anticipated substantial rise in receipts from sales by theVeterans Administration of Government-owned mortgages, which areapplied against expenditures.

We will continue to make certain that veterans with service-relateddisabilities, and their dependents, are fairly provided for. Benefitsand services for other groups of veterans will also continue to be pro-vided, but with the recognition that veterans and their families aresharing to an increasing extent in Federal, State, and local programswhich are raising the standards of income maintenance, educationalopportunity, and health and welfare for all Americans.

2 8 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

SPECIAL ASPECTS OF THE GOVERNMENT PROGRAM

Certain additional elements of the proposed 1965 Government pro-gram deserve special note.

Federal expenditures and the balance of payments.—The recentimprovement in the U.S. balance of international payments representsprogress toward eliminating our persistent payments deficit. Pre-liminary estimates indicate that the gross balanee-of-payments deficitin the second half of calendar year 1963 was roughly one-third thatof the first half. For the year as a whole, these estimates show thedeficit to be the lowest since 1957.

Three factors in particular have contributed to the improvementduring the past year: the continued price stability of U.S. products, aproposed interest equalization tax on foreign securities, which wouldbe effective as of July 1963, and an increase in short-term interest rates.Anticipation of the proposed tax, which is intended only as a tempo-rary measure, has already had a favorable effect. To insure continu-ing benefits from the tax during the critical period ahead, I urge itsspeedy enactment by the Congress. Enactment of the tax reductionlegislation now before Congress will also help the balance of paymentsby making U.S. firms more competitive in world markets and by pro-moting the kind of economy which will be more attractive to U.S. andforeign investors.

During the past one and a half years, all Federal Government ac-tivities affecting the balance of payments have been under continuingscrutiny for the purpose of finding savings—large and small—whichcan be made in payments abroad. In some cases, purchases or activi-ties formerly conducted overseas have been restricted to the UnitedStates. In others, they have been eliminated. Over 80% of the cur-rent obligations by the Agency for International Development forloans and grants to developing countries now must be spent for goodsand services produced in the United States. In addition, defense off-set agreements with certain of our European allies, the prepayment offunds previously loaned to foreign governments, and the sale of specialnonmarketable, medium-term Treasury bonds to foreign central bankshave been particularly helpful to our balance of payments.

As a result of the reviews and actions undertaken, the net annualoutflow from Federal Government programs—payments less regularreceipts—is estimated to drop by $800 million between 1963 and 1965.This excludes special receipts of a nonrecurring nature, such as pre-payments of loans, sales of nonmarketable medium-term securities,and advances received on military exports.

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 29

Federal expenditures of an investment nature.—A large partof the civilian expenditures of the Federal Government contributesdirectly and indirectly to the growth and development of the Nation'sphysical and human resources. For example, budget and trust fundexpenditures for fiscal year 1965 include $3.7 billion for Federal civilpublic works, for the acquisition of major nondefense equipment andother physical assets, and for small business, rural electrification, andother loans and additions to civilian Federal assets. Another $5.3billion of Federal civilian budget and trust fund outlays representgrants for highways, hospitals, schools and other facilities whichincrease State, local, and private physical assets.

Federal expenditures in 1965 also include $1.8 billion for such devel-opmental activities as education, training and health, and $1.5 billionfor scientific research and development other than for defense andspace objectives. These outlays increase knowledge, enhance skills,and strengthen the physical vigor and quality of the labor force.Thus, of the total estimated Federal cash payments to the public in1965, about $12.3 billion or 10%, represent an investment in civilianprograms which will help promote the long run growth of our Nation.

Furthermore, during fiscal year 1965 an estimated $8.2 billion willbe spent on defense research and development, including atomic

energy, and $4.5 billion on space research and development. In thelong run these outlays will also make a valuable contribution to thetechnological development and economic growth of our country.

Federal expenditures and the national output.—Direct Federalpurchases of goods and services in 1965 are estimated at $69.1 billion,which is less than 11% of the gross national product; five-sixths of thesepurchases are for the defense and space programs. Total Federalpurchases of goods and services have remained at approximately 11%to 12% of the gross national product throughout the last decade.

Other large portions of the budget, such as social security payments,represent transfers of purchasing power to or within other sectorsof the economy. Such outlays, amounting to $52.4 billion in 1965, areestimated to fall somewhat as a percent of total national output.These include $31.8 billion for transfer payments—such as old-ageand survivors insurance benefits, unemployment compensation, andmilitary and veterans pensions—which improve the recipients' stand-ard of living by providing them with increased purchasing power.Similarly, grants-in-aid to State and local governments for such activ-ities as highways, public assistance, and public health increase theability of these governments to provide local public services. TheseFederal expenditures transferring purchasing power to other sectorsof the economy have more than doubled from 1955 to 1964, while Fed-eral purchases of goods and services have risen by about 50%.

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 31

In fiscal year 1965, the Federal Government will add to its direct useof total national output much less than will State and local govern-ments. In contrast to the estimated rise of $1.3.billion in direct Fed-eral purchases in 1965 as compared with 1964, present indications arethat purchases by State and local governments will continue to rise byat least as much as the $3 billion to $4 billion by which they havebeen increasing in recent years.

PUBLIC DEBT

Under present law the temporary debt limitation of $315 billion willcontinue in effect through June 29, 1964. The temporary limit thenbecomes $309 billion for one day, June 30, 1964, after which the per-manent ceiling of $285 billion again becomes effective.

Net Public and Private Debt

The present temporary debt limits were enacted in November 1963.The House Committee on Ways and Means noted in its report ofNovember 4, 1963, that the ceilings were very restrictive, and cutsharply into the normal allowances for contingencies and flexibilityduring periods of peak requirements in March and June. The reportalso noted the concern of the Secretary of the Treasury that the debtcould not be reduced to the $309 billion limit set by statute for June 30,1964, without disrupting orderly management of Treasury finances.

Based on the latest estimates contained in this budget, the debtsubject to limit on June 30, 1964, is now estimated to be $312 billion.Accordingly, a change in the limit is necessary before June 30, 1964,if serious difficulties in the conduct of public debt management are tobe avoided. A further change will be needed to cover the anticipated,but reduced, deficit for 1965.

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 3 3

Debt limitations which are so restrictive or so temporary in applica-tion as to necessitate several legislative revisions in a single year—aslast year—conflict with economical operation of the Government andeffective financial management, and involve both the Congress andthe Executive in unnecessarily repetitive discussions of the same issues.Instead, the debt ceiling should provide sufficient flexibility for soundmanagement of the. Government's finances at the lowest cost, andalso permit the Treasury leeway for actively supporting the Nation'sbalance-of-payments position through timely debt operations. Withor without a restrictive debt ceiling, expenditures in this administra-tion will be held to the lowest possible level.

EFFICIENCY AND ECONOMY IN GOVERNMENT

I call upon all Government employees to observe three paramountprinciples of public service:

First, complete fairness in the administration of governmentalpowers and services;

Second, scrupulous avoidance of conflicts of interest; andThird, a passion for efficiency and economy in every aspect of Gov-

ernment operations.For its part, the Federal Government must be a good employer. It

must offer challenging opportunities to its employees. It must beprompt to recognize and reward initiative. It must pay well to attractand keep its share of dedicated and resourceful workers. It must wel-come fresh ideas, new approaches, and responsible criticism.

For 33 years I have been in Government service. I have known itschallenge, its rewards, and its opportunities. But all these will mul-tiply in the years to come. The time is at hand to develop the Federalservice into the finest instrument of public good that our will andingenuity can forge.

Controlling employment.—Although both our population and oureconomy are growing and placing greater demands upon the Govern-ment for services of every kind, I believe the time has come to get ourwork done by improving the efficiency and productivity of our Federalwork force, rather than by adding to its numbers.

This budget proposes a reduction in Federal employment in 1965—from 2,512,400 to 2,511,200 civilian employees—and I have directedthe heads of all departments and agencies to work toward reducingemployment still further. This reversal in the trend of Federal em-ployment results from a rigorous appraisal of personnel needs, de-termined measures to increase employee productivity and efficiency,and the curtailment of lower priority work. It will be accomplisheddespite large and unavoidable increases in workloads.

34 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

Selected Prosram Trends

' i 1 I I I I I I I I I V J I I I I I I I

Of the 9i/£> million civilian employees of governments in the UnitedStates today, 2y2 million are employed by the Federal Governmentand about 7 million by the State and local governments. In the decadefrom fiscal year 1955, Federal civilian employment in the executivebranch will rise by 6%, while the population of the United Stateswill increase by 17%. State and local employment will increase about65% during the same period.

In fiscal year 1955, we had 14 Federal civilian employees in theexecutive branch for every 1,000 people; in fiscal year 1965, we willhave fewer than 13 Federal civilian employees to serve every 1,000people.

Management improvement and cost reduction.—As substantialas are savings due to tightening up on Federal employment, evenlarger economies result from actions which eliminate waste and dupli-cation, simplify unnecessarily complex systems and procedures, andintroduce new and better business methods.

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 3 5

The emphasis on management improvement in the executive branchduring the past 3 years has led to impressive economies on a verywide front. Functions have been consolidated. Automatic data proc-essing equipment has improved efficiency and reduced operating costs.Excess property in the possession of one agency has been transferredto others, saving substantial funds budgeted for new purchases. Pro-ductivity has been increased in agencies with the heaviest volumeof workloads, thus avoiding payroll increases.

In the Department of Defense, the cost reduction program hasachieved exceptional results. Without impairing combat strength oreffectiveness, savings of over $1 billion were achieved in fiscal year1963, and annual savings by fiscal year 1967 are expected to reach theimpressive figure of $4 billion. As part of this effort, defense basesand installations no longer needed will be shut down. The number ofcivilian employees in the Department of Defense will decrease by 10,-000 in fiscal year 1964 and by another 17,000 in 1965—to the lowestlevel since 1950.

I have directed all departments and agencies to continue and in-tensify these efforts. When the search for economy is compromised,the taxpayer is the loser.

Government organization.—The organization of the Governmentmust be adjusted to cope with new and challenging problems resultingfrom scientific and technological advances, the development of newand the elimination of old programs, and changes in policies and pro-gram emphasis.

One of the most urgently needed improvements requiring congres-sional action is legislation to create a Department of Housing andCommunity Development to provide leadership in coordinating vari-ous Federal programs which aid the development of our urban areas.1 recommend that the Congress approve establishment of this newDepartment during its current session.

The authority of the President to transmit reorganization plansto the Congress expired on May 31, 1963. Legislation now pendingin the Congress should be enacted to renew this authority.

Salary reform and adjustment.—Although this budget is deliber-ately restrictive, I have concluded that government economy will bebest served by an upward adjustment in salaries. In the last yearand a half the Federal Government has taken far-reaching steps toimprove its pay practices. The Federal Salary Reform Act of 1962and the Uniformed Services Pay Act of 1963 established the principleof keeping military and civilian pay generally in line with pay inthe private economy. This is a sound principle, and it is reinforced

Page 36: bus_1965

36 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

by the sound procedure of annual review. This principle is fair tothe taxpayer, to Government employees, and to the Government asan employer.

This budget provides for the costs of such action in this session ofCongress. Any pay action by the Congress should bring salary ratesfor top executive branch positions up to levels more nearly com-mensurate with their respective responsibilities, and increase ratesfor the Congress and the Judiciary. Economy and efficiency in gov-ernment will come primarily from the hard and conscientious workof our top managers, who are now plainly underpaid for what isexpected of them.

THE BUDGET MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 3 7

CONCLUSION

Approval of this budget will:

• Lift a major barrier to more rapid growth in the private sector ofthe economy by reducing tax burdens and providing investmentincentives.

• Meet the Nation's defense, international, and domestic require-ments.

• Provide generously for human needs and, with local communityaction, attack forcefully the pockets of human want and deprivationin our land.

• Advance efficient and economical administration in the Govern-ment so that each tax dollar will be a dollar well spent.

The program proposed for 1965 should provide ample assurance ofour determination to keep costs under tight control and move the taxreduction bill toward speedy approval. It should also provide ampleevidence that critical national problems need not go unsolved andhuman wants unmet in a Nation rich in moral as well as materialstrength.

A government that is strong, a government that is solvent, a gov-ernment that is compassionate is the kind of government thait endures.

There is no inconsistency in being prudent and frugal, in being alertand strong, and in being sensitive and sympathetic to the unfilledneeds of the people.

This is the objective of this Administration. It is an objectivethat will be met.

I firmly believe the proposals in this budget will serve the Nationwell and I ask the support of the Congress and the American peoplein putting them into efFect.

ANALYSIS OF RECEIPTS BY SOURCE

This section of the budget supplements the budget message withadditional information about the revenue estimates and the antici-pated tax changes.

Economic base of estimates.—Prompt enactment of the pendingtax bill, making sizable tax reductions effective as of January 1, 1964,will accelerate the growth of the economy toward full employment.Under these conditions the Nation's output of goods and services isexpected to reach $623 billion in calendar year 1964, an increase of$38 billion over calendar year 1963. This projection should betaken as the midpoint of a $10 billion range, from $618 to $628 billion.Substantial gains in personal income and corporate profits beforetaxes will accompany the growth in output. Specifically, the revenueestimates in the 1965 budget are based on the following economicassumptions:

Estimates of tax revenues cannot be derived directly and simplyfrom the assumed levels of aggregate economic performance. Thedefinitions of taxable income in the tax statutes, which determinetax liabilities, differ from the economic or statistical definitions ofincome which are used to measure economic performance. Inaddition, tax payments are received by the Treasury after the periodin which tax liabilities are incurred. For example, corporation in-come tax collections now lag about 6 months behind the period whenthe taxable income was earned; there is also some lag between thetime when individual income and social security taxes are deductedfrom earnings and the time employers transfer these sums to theTreasury.

Estimated changes in revenues.—Total receipts from the publicare estimated at $119.7 billion in fiscal year 1965, an increase of $5.4billion over the level estimated for fiscal year 1964. These estimates

assume passage of the revenue legislation discussed in the proposedlegislation section of this analysis. Especially important is enactmentof the income tax program approved by the House of Representativesand currently under consideration in the Senate. The reductions inincome tax rates are assumed to be retroactive to January 1, 1964.

Under the new income tax rates, tax payments by individuals andcorporations will be reduced by approximately $2.6 billion in fiscalyear 1964 and $8.0 billion in fiscal year 1965, calculated on the basisof calendar 1963 income levels. These potential gross losses in taxreceipts, however, will be offset in part by increased revenues fromthe economic stimulus of the tax cut and a new schedule for quarterlycorporation tax payments. As a result, the net revenue declinefrom the tax changes is estimated to be $2.2 billion in fiscal year1964 and $3.1 billion in fiscal year 1965. Despite this loss, incometax collections, individual and corporate, are expected to be $3.1billion greater in fiscal 1965 than in the current fiscal year, chieflybecause of the anticipated continuing expansion of economic activity.

5 8 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

Individual income tax receipts are estimated at $48.5 billion infiscal 1965 compared with $47.5 billion in 1964. This change reflectsthe net effect of the anticipated reduction in tax rates and the asso-ciated rise in personal income subject to tax.

Corporation income tax receipts are estimated at $25.8 billion in fiscalyear 1965, an increase of $2.1 billion over fiscal year 1964. Thedecline in tax collections because of the reduction in corporation in-come tax rates will be more than offset by the receipts gained from thehigher profits arising from the stimulation to economic activity andfrom the acceleration of corporation tax payments under the terms ofthe pending tax bill.

Excise tax receipts show an estimated increase of $766 million duringthe coming fiscal year. Virtually all excise taxes will yield increasedrevenues, accompanying the expected general rise in economic activity.

Employment tax collections will rise by $219 million in fiscal year1965 to $17.0 billion. The increase reflects mainly higher levels ofemployment and earnings and the increase in the taxable wage basefor the railroad retirement system from $4,800 to $5,400 enacted lastyear.

Deposits by States for unemployment insurance are expected todecline by $75 million. Because of generally rising employment, manyfirms have maintained stable employment levels, and are qualifyingfor reduced rates of payroll taxes under experience rating clauses intheir State laws.

Miscellaneous budget receipts in total will rise by $144 million to$3.5 billion in fiscal year 1965. Increases estimated in a number ofcomponents, including proposals for new or higher user charges, arepartly offset by declines in others.

Proposed legislation.—The following are the major revenue pro-posals recommended for enactment this year.

Income tax rate and structural tax changes.—The pending revenuebill will reduce tax rates on individual and corporate incomes, maketax treatment among taxpayers more equitable, and bolster economicincentives. Part of the tax reduction will be in effect during calendaryear 1964 and the remainder during calendar year 1965. When fullyeffective, it will reduce income tax liabilities by over $11 billion a year.

The legislation is assumed to be enacted very early this calendaryear, with a 14% withholding rate on wages and salaries beginning in

RECEIPTS 59

February, and with the initial stage of the new income tax rateseffective for the entire calendar year 1964. Accordingly, the reducedwithholding rate will influence receipts only during the last monthsof fiscal 1964 and during the whole of fiscal 1965. When the secondstage of tax reductions goes into effect on January 1, 1965, the with-holding rate will remain at 14%.

The rates on taxable individual incomes then will be in a rangefrom 14% to 70%, compared with the present range from 20% to9 1 % . The present first bracket of taxable income up to $2,000 forsingle persons, and $4,000 for married couples, which is now taxedat 20%, will be divided into four equal brackets, each of which willbe taxed at a different rate below 20%.

The combined normal and surtax rates on corporation incomesabove $25,000 will become 48%, compared with the current 52%.Incorporated small businesses will receive an even larger tax ratereduction, since the normal tax rate on corporation income below$25,000 will decline to 22% from the current 30%.

Corporations with income tax liabilities in excess of $100,000 peryear will have their tax payments moved closer in time to the accrualof tax liabilities. The speedup of payments will start in calendar year1964 and will be completed in 1970, when payments of estimated taxliabilities greater than $100,000 will be made quarterly as the liabilitydevelops. During the transition to the new payment schedule totaltax payments by these corporations will not exceed the taxes theywould pay under present rates on the same income.

The major structural revisions contained in the bill will becomeeffective on January 1, 1964. They include (1) a minimum standarddeduction that will reduce the tax liability of many low-income tax-payers by more than the general rate reduction, (2) a limit on thedeductibility of certain State and local government taxes, and (3)repeal of the dividend credit and an increase in the amount of dividendincome excluded from taxable income. Other important provisionswill reduce such special exemptions as tax-free sick pay allowancesfor illnesses of short duration, limit the grouping of oil properties fordepletion allowances, and tighten the requirements on personal hold-ing companies.

Excise taxes.—Under present law, the excise rates on distilled spirits,beer, wines, cigarettes, passenger automobiles, and automobile partsand accessories will be reduced on July 1, 1964, and the tax on generaltelephone service will expire on July 1, 1964. The revenue estimatesin this budget are based on proposed legislation extending the presentrates of these taxes for 1 additional year.

6 0 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 19 65

Federal unemployment tax.—Legislation is pending to increase thepayroll tax rate on employers under the unemployment insurancesystem from 3.1% to 3.4%, effective on calendar year 1965 wages.Federal receipts under this program will not show the effects of thenew tax rate until fiscal year 1966 because of the lag in depositing thereceipts with the Treasury. This increased tax rate is designed tofinance proposed improvements in the system, including a longerperiod of eligibility for unemployment benefits.

User charges.—In keeping with the policy that a larger share of thecosts of programs which provide special benefits or privileges shouldbe met by those receiving the benefits, rather than by the generaltaxpayer, legislation authorizing certain additional user charges,and extending others, is recommended.

The most significant charges proposed affect commercial and otherusers of transportation, and would become effective on July 1, 1964.These include (a) continuing as a user charge the 5% excise tax on airpassenger transportation which would otherwise expire on July 1,1964; (b) instituting a 5% tax on air freight; (c) extending to jet fuels,currently untaxed, the present 2 cents per gallon tax on fuels used incommercial air transportation; (d) increasing from 2 cents to 3 centsper gallon the tax on all fuels used in general aviation; and (e) initi-ating user charges for the inland waterways through a tax of 2 cents pergallon on fuels used in transportation on these waterways. The re-ceipts from all of these charges will be retained in the general fund ofthe Treasury under the proposed legislation.

In addition, a land and water conservation fund has been proposedto finance planning, land acquisition and development of recreationfacilities, to be carried out chiefly through grants to States. Therevenues would come to this new fund from (a) existing and new ad-mission and user fees in national forests, parks, and other recreationareas, (b) the proceeds from the sale of surplus Government realproperty, and (c) transfer of certain motor boat fuel taxes from thehighway trust fund.

Legislation to increase the fees charged by the Patent Office hasbeen sent to the Congress; the new fee schedule would bring thePatent Office closer to a self-sustaining pattern of operations.

Rural Electrification Administration.—Legislation is again beingproposed to permit the Rural Electrification Administration to useits repayments on outstanding loans to finance new loans. Enact-ment of this legislation will reduce equally miscellaneous receipts andREA expenditures in fiscal years 1964 and 1965, and will not affectthe budgetary surplus or deficit.

This part of the budget describes the recommended program ofthe Government for fiscal year 1965 in terms of the 12 major func-tions served.

These recommendations result from a critical review of prioritiesand costs. They provide for meeting the Nation's needs and respon-sibilities at home and abroad with a maximum of efficiency andeconomy.

Total Federal payments to the public in fiscal year 1965 are esti-mated at $122.7 billion. This includes not only expenditures in theadministrative budget but also outlays of Government trust funds,which finance such programs as social security and interstate high-way construction:

The $97.9 billion of administrative budget expenditures estimatedfor fiscal year 1965 is $0.5 billion below the estimate for the currentfiscal year. This has been accomplished despite growing workloads,increases in pay costs, and built-in and uncontrollable increases fora number of activities. Within the total, reductions have been madewherever possible, enabling selective increases for a number of domes-tic programs vitally needed to meet human needs and encourage eco-nomic growth.

About 80% of the estimated administrative budget expenditures in1965 will be devoted to our national defense, international, and spaceobjectives, and for veterans and interest payments which representthe continuing costs of the Nation's past wars. These activitiesrepresent a substantially smaller proportion of total Federal cash pay-ments, 63%, because most of the trust fund expenditures are relatedto other programs.

Of the remaining Federal payments to the public, more than three-fifths is for health, labor and welfare programs, primarily trust fundbenefit payments under old-age and survivors insurance, unemploy-ment insurance, and other retirement systems financed through spe-cial taxes.

In addition to the expenditures estimated in the 12 functional cate-gories, the budget includes special allowances, totaling $1.1 billion in1965, for programs to combat poverty, for civilian pay adjustments,and for contingencies.

Of this total, $250 million is provided as an allowance for expendi-tures under a new program to attack poverty in the Nation. Thesefunds will be used, in conjunction with funds from existing and else-where proposed legislation, as the resources for locally initiated com-munity action programs in urban and rural areas.

and local programs—relating primarily to education and training,health, job opportunities, housing,, and welfare services—will befocused on the objective of striking at the root causes of poverty.Many of the other legislative proposals in this budget will also con-tribute to the attack on poverty, in particular the recommendationsfor improvements in education and youth employment opportunities.

The Federal agencies concerned are already giving special attentionto promoting the long run economic development of the Appalachianregion. A comprehensive program is now being planned jointly bythe various Federal agencies and the 10 States involved, which willinclude further Federal assistance in developing the economic base ofthe region.

An additional allowance of $544 million is provided in the expendi-ture estimate for 1965 for proposed legislation to make salary rates ofFederal civilian employees more nearly comparable with pay scalesin the private economy, along the lines recommended last year.Finally, an estimate of $300 million is included to cover contingenciesthat may arise during fiscal 1965.

NATIONAL DEFENSE

The very substantial investments which we have made to improveour military forces in recent years are proving their worth. TheNation has amassed forces which, in conjunction with those of ourallies, enable us to cope successfully with any intrusion into areas ofour vital national interest. Events have made clear to all our abilityto make swift, effective, and deliberate responses to acts of aggression,large or small, in any part of the world.

Along with these achievements have come important managementimprovements in the defense establishment which are resulting insubstantial cost reductions and related savings. Accordingly, in1965 we will be able to further strengthen our defense programs whileat the same time making significant reductions in total expenditures.National defense outlays are estimated to decline to $55.2 billion in1965 from the $56.0 billion estimated for fiscal year 1964.

Department of Defense.—Military expenditures of the Depart-ment of Defense are estimated at $51.2 billion in 1965, a decrease of$1.1 billion from the current year. New obligational authority of$50.9 billion is proposed for the Department, compared with $51.0billion for the current year.

This budget provides for further gains in combat effectiveness andcontinued maintenance of active forces in a high state of readiness.The reduction in defense expenditures is not based on any sacrifice inessential military capability. Instead, it reflects the diminishingneed fo# further large additions to force levels and stocks of supplies

Strategic retaliatory forces.—Our strategic retaliatory forces nowconsist of more than 600 operational long-range ballistic missiles—Atlas, Titan, Minuteman, and the submarine-launched Polaris—together with a SAC bomber force of about 1,000 aircraft, includingthose on air alert training missions and about 500 on quick-reactionground alert. The present and planned forces are, and will con-tinue to be, vastly superior to the Soviet nuclear force. Most of theland-based missile force has been hardened and dispersed so that,with the highly invulnerable Polaris force at sea and the continuouslyalerted strategic aircraft, we are clearly capable of destroying anaggressor even if forced to absorb a surprise first strike.

Under these conditions, further substantial numerical increases inour strategic forces above those already planned would soon be ofdiminishing value. The 1965 budget provides for another incrementof an improved type of Minuteman missile, bringing to 1,000 thenumber of Minutemen approved through fiscal 1965. In addition,emphasis is being placed on improving the effectiveness of the stra-

Page 72: bus_1965

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY FUNCTION 75

tegic missile and bomber forces and their responsiveness to commandauthority.

The 1965 budget provides for an extensive missile improvementprogram, modifications to earlier versions of the Minuteman andPolaris missiles to increase their range and versatility, and a spe-cial modification program for the B-52 manned bomber designed toensure the continued effectiveness of this aircraft in future years.The 1965 budget also provides for further development and procure-ment of postattack command and control systems, continued researchon advanced ICBM systems, and design studies on intercontinentalstrike aircraft.

Total obligational availability for the strategic retaliatory forcesin 1965 is estimated to decline by $2.0 billion from 1964. The reduc-tion is possible mainly because funding for the planned fleet of 41Polaris submarines is being completed in 1964 and fewer additionalMinuteman missiles are included for 1965. Savings will also resultfrom the continued phase-out of the B-47 medium bomber force andof the older, unprotected Atlas missiles, which are particularly expen-sive to maintain.

Continental air and missile defense forces.—Our continental defenseforces are intended to provide warning of attack, to defend commandcenters and retaliatory forces, and to reduce casualties in the popula-tion and damage to industry. Total obligational availability forthese forces in 1965 is estimated to decline by $0.1 billion from 1964.

The strategic threat to the United States is shifting from mannedbombers to ballistic missiles. Moreover, a larger portion of the Sovietmissile forces is being deployed in submarines at sea or otherwiseprotected. Accordingly, the 1965 program provides for continueddevelopment work on a priority basis for the Nike X antimissilesystem along with continued exploration of advanced antiballisticmissile defense concepts. Research will also proceed on variousmissile warning and space surveillance systems.

The vulnerability of our defenses against bomber attack will bereduced by the further dispersal of interceptor aircraft and Nike-Hercules surface-to-air missile batteries, as well as by the furtherprogress expected in improving the survivability of control systemsfor interceptors. The Ballistic Missile Early Warning System willcontinue to provide notice of missile attack.

General purpose forces.—In the past several years there has beena great improvement in the ground, sea, and air forces designedprincipally for limited war, and the Nation now possesses the kindsof forces needed to deal with such a contingency. These expandedcapabilities have been achieved not only by increases in the size ofour forces, but also by a buildup of combat stocks, increases in mobility

and readiness, and by modernization of the weapons inventory. Thegap which once existed between requirements for equipment andsupplies and actual inventory levels has already been significantlynarrowed, and the 1965 budget provides for further gains. Totalobligational availability for the general purpose forces is estimatedat $18.5 billion in 1965, $0.3 billion more than in 1964.

The funds provided in this budget will maintain the present 16Army divisions and the 3 Marine division/aircraft wings, and willprovide for continued testing of an air assault division concept.Army and Marine Corps inventories of modern combat weapons andequipment, including aircraft, missiles, and helicopters, will be furtheraugmented.

The Navy general purpose force program provides for the con-struction of 47 new ships, including 6 nuclear attack submarinesand a submarine tender, 16 destroyer escorts for antisubmarinewarfare, 7 fleet support ships, 10 amphibious assault ships, and 1destroyer tender. Including all major programs, this budget pro-vides for construction of 53 new ships and 7 major conversions.

The 1965 budget also provides for further procurement of both thefighter and reconnaissance versions of the modern F-4 aircraft forthe Navy and Air Force; development and production of the VAL, anew Navy light attack aircraft; construction of tactical aircraftshelters in overseas areas; and procurement of additional conventionalordnance and equipment. Development of the advanced F - l l ltactical fighter aircraft for the Navy and Air Force will continue in1965.

Airlift and sealift forces.—Modernization and expansion of the air-lift forces during the past several years have greatly increased ourability to deploy forces rapidly to trouble spots all over the world.A dramatic example of this was operation "Big Lift," in which thepersonnel of a combat-ready Army division were airlifted from Texas toWest Germany in 63 hours and united with prepositioned equipment.

Total obligational availability of $1.4 billion estimated for thisprogram in 1965 is $0.1 billion more than in 1964. The 1965 budgetprovides for procurement of additional C-141 jet transports, procure-ment of a cargo ship designed for rapid loading and unloading ofmilitary equipment, and modernization of two tankers. In addition,funds are provided for a continuation of the program of large-scaleairlift exercises, and for initial design studies on a new jet cargo air-craft.

Reserve forces.—To the extent that the reserve components of theArmy, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force can respond in a timelymanner, the need for active forces is lessened. The major reorgani-zation of the Army Reserve and Army National Guard instituted lastyear has helped to increase the readiness and potential combateffectiveness of these forces.

In 1965, total obligational availability to support these forces isestimated at $2.0 billion.

The paid drill training strength of the Army reserve componentsauthorized and programed for the end of fiscal years 1963 through1965 is 700,000. However, it is estimated that the strengths whichcan actually be attained in 1964 and 1965 are below this amount, aswas the case in 1963. The funds provided in this budget wouldsupport the lower levels anticipated.

Research and development.—Total obligational availability proposedfor this program category, which includes all research and develop-ment of weapons and other systems not included in the other programcategories, is $5.5 billion, $0.1 billion more than in 1964. Work willbe completed on a number of systems and will be canceled on someother programs, such as the Dynasoar manned spacecraft project.The Dynasoar project will be replaced by a broader and more prom-ising program for exploring problems and potentials of manned mili-tary operations in space, including development of a manned orbitinglaboratory.

7 8 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

General programs of basic research and exploratory development,which provide the building blocks for future weapons, will continueto be expanded in 1965. Projects included in the 1965 program rangefrom weapons for guerrilla warfare to sophisticated space programs.Examples are: the Titan III, a large booster rocket for the spaceprogram; the Nike X ballistic missile defense system; vertical takeofffighter and transport aircraft; penetration aids for our ballisticmissiles; antisubmarine warfare weapons; and the Medium-RangeBallistic Missile.

General support.—This program includes all costs which cannot beallocated meaningfully among the other major programs, such as thefinancing of individual training and education, communications, theNational Military Command System, logistic support, medicalservices, military housing, command operations, and certain otherdepartmentwide activities. Much of this program is influenced byother program decisions; for example, the costs of medical care andrecruit training are directly related to the size of the military forces.Total obligational availability required for this program in 1965 is$14.8 billion, compared with $13.9 billion in 1964. This increaseresults from military and civilian pay increases required by law andhigher costs for such functions as the Defense Atomic SupportAgency and Army communications.

Funds are provided for determining the effects of undergroundnuclear weapons tests and for maintaining readiness to test in theatmosphere in case of violation of the limited nuclear test ban treaty.

Civil defense.—An effective civil defense program is an importantelement of our total defense effort. It aims at the achievement of anationwide fallout shelter system. The 1965 program is based onenactment of legislation similar to that proposed last year to provideFederal assistance for fallout shelters in public buildings, schools,hospitals, and other nonprofit institutions. Total obligational availa-bility of $0.4 billion is proposed for the civil defense program for 1965,compared with $0.1 billion in 1964.

The 1965 program also provides for continued work on systems towarn the population of an attack, equipment for monitoring the levelof radioactivity, construction of protected regional centers for emer-gency governmental operation, training and education for emergencypreparedness, research and development, financial assistance to States,and procurement of provisions for fallout shelter spaces. The nation-wide shelter survey, under which 104 million spaces have already beenidentified, will continue.

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY FUNCTION 7 9

Military assistance.—The military assistance program is based onthe recognition that the security of the United States is interdependentwith that of the rest of the free world. In the 1965 budget, funds formilitary assistance have been included under the Department ofDefense, reflecting a new emphasis on closer coordination betweenthis program and the Department's other regular missions.

Under the military assistance program, equipment, training, andrelated services are provided for the armed forces of more than 60allied and friendly nations. The program also helps to maintain ouraccess to overseas bases, which allows optimum deployment of ourown military forces. To replace the forces of our allies with com-parable and similarly deployed American troops and facilities wouldcost us much more in terms of both manpower and expenditures.

The Western European nations in the North Atlantic TreatyOrganization now supply almost all the financial support for theirown military forces and also provide- military assistance to others.Continuing military assistance from the United States to theseEuropean countries is limited to the fulfillment of prior commitmentsand a modest amount of training, essential to the attainment of U.S.objectives. Today, in response to the changing nature and directionof the Communist threat, approximately 70% of the total programgoes to nine key countries on the periphery of the Soviet Union andCommunist China—Greece, Turkey, Iran, India, Pakistan, Thailand,Vietnam, arid the Republics of China and Korea.

In the less developed nations of Latin America and Africa, ourmilitary assistance is directed primarily toward strengthening internalsecurity and helping indigenous forces in civic action projects.

Recommended total obligational availability for the military assist-ance program in 1965 is $1.1 billion, the same as in 1964.

Proposed legislation.—-Further adjustments will be needed in militarycompensation rates to keep military pay abreast of changes in payscales in the private economy. To cover the costs of these adjust-ments, the budget includes $143 million of new obligational authorityfor 1965, on the assumption that the Congress will enact the necessarylegislation in time for it to become effective on October 1, 1964.

The Congress is again requested to enact legislation to:• Provide comparable subsistence standards among the militaryservices by establishing a single, uniform ration.• Modernize and make more uniform the statutes of militaryservices governing various aspects of officer career management inorder to aid in attracting and retaining qualified officer personnel.

8 0 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

• Authorize the military departments to offer an elective 2-yearReserve Officer Training Corps course leading to a commission inaddition to the presently authorized 4-year program.• Revise the present system for appointments to the Military,Naval, and Air Academies to provide more equitable opportunitiesfor those wishing to enter these schools.• Authorize disposal of the Government-owned communicationsfacilities in Alaska to private enterprise for operation and de-velopment under appropriate regulatory supervision.

Atomic energy activities.—Expenditures by the Atomic EnergyCommission in 1965 are estimated to be $2.7 billion, down $65 millionfrom 1964. Increases for research and development programs forpeaceful uses of atomic energy will be more than offset by a reductionof $126 million in the procurement of uranium concentrates and theproduction of special nuclear materials. The lower rate of productionof these materials (plutonium and enriched uranium) is consistentwith anticipated military and civilian requirements arrived at follow-ing extensive review by the Atomic Energy Commission and theDepartment of Defense.

Nuclear weapons.—Expenditures for the development and produc-tion of nuclear weapons in 1965 will remain at the levels attained in1964. Underground testing of nuclear weapons will continue in1965, along with preparations to achieve and maintain readiness toresume testing in the atmosphere, in the event that the limited nucleartest ban treaty is terminated.

Peaceful uses of atomic energy.—Expenditures in 1965 for the de-velopment of civilian nuclear power are estimated at $234 million, anincrease of $5 million from 1964. Increased emphasis will be placedon reactors which produce more fuel than they consume ("breeders"),and efforts will be continued to develop certain other advanced re-actors. However, there will be a decline in Federal expenditures forestablished types of light water-cooled reactors which are now cominginto increasing use in private utility systems. Continued emphasiswill be given to the nuclear safety program, including constructionof a third experimental facility.

Programs to develop the use of nuclear energy in space explorationwill be continued in 1965. Work will continue on the SNAP programto develop compact nuclear electric power units for satellites and spacevehicles, with particular emphasis on units fueled by radioisotopes.

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY FUNCTION 81

The Kover nuclear rocket program will be reoriented to ground-based research and engineering, with deferral of flight objectives.

There will be continued growth in 1965 in basic research in thephysical and biomedical sciences. Particularly noteworthy in thephysical sciences program will be the start of construction of theworld's finest research reactor at Argonne National Laboratory nearChicago, which will serve many scientific disciplines. Researchactivities in the biomedical sciences will grow in several areas, in-cluding fallout studies.

Work on the peaceful application of nuclear explosives underProject Plowshare will be concentrated in 1965 on the developmentof suitable devices for excavation purposes.

Defense-related activities.—Expenditures for the various defense-related activities of agencies other than the Department of Defenseand the Atomic Energy Commission are expected to decline by $153million in 1965. The decrease is in defense production activities, re-flecting proposed legislation to eliminate requirements for furtherinterest payments on borrowings from the Treasury for certain pre-vious investments in defense production programs.

Expenditures for the Selective Service System are estimated to riseby $5 million in 1965 due to a more than one-third increase in regis-tration and classification workloads, as larger numbers of young menreach age 18 and become subject to registration. Special proceduresare planned to provide for examination of 18-year-olds as part of anational effort to help identify and overcome the disabilities whichresult in rejection of so many of our youth for service in the ArmedForces.

INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS AND FINANCE

The international activities of the U.S. Government foster under-standing by educational, cultural, and economic exchange with othernations, and by providing information about this country and itsobjectives. They also promote world stability by supplying thecritical margin of economic resources and technical knowledge thatwill help developing nations to attack poverty and discontent, advancetoward economic independence, and maintain their political integrity.

New obligational authority of $3.6 billion is requested for inter-national affairs and finance activities for 1965, an increase of about$600 million over 1964. Administrative budget expenditures areestimated to be $2.2 billion in 1965, about $200 million less than in1964. This reduction primarily reflects greater anticipated sales ofcertificates of participation by the Export-Import Bank.

Agency for International Development.—The Agency for Inter-national Development administers and coordinates economic assist-ance programs in less developed countries where political stability,resistance to aggression, or accelerated economic or social progress isof importance to the United States. Expenditures for these programsare estimated to be $2.2 billion in 1965, an increase of $50 million over

1964. New obligational authority of $2.4 billion is requested for AIDfor 1965. This will make the total 1965 obligational availabilityequivalent to the amount provided for 1964 including unobligatedfunds carried forward from the prior year.

In determining the allocation of its funds, the Agency for Inter-national Development is carefully weighing U.S. objectives and apply-ing increasingly rigorous standards in evaluating recipient countryperformance and the availability of funds from other sources. Pro-curement procedures insure that more than 80% of AID commit-ments now finance procurement of goods and services produced inthe United States. Improved management will help the Agency toreduce its employment by 800 during 1965.

Development loans and grants.—Increasingly, our commitments fordevelopment assistance are focused in a relatively small number ofcountries which are displaying the serious discipline essential toeconomic development; in such instances, we are attempting to en-courage and sustain the acquired momentum by providing long-termassistance on favorable terms until alternative sources of financingbecome available. Where evidence of the necessary discipline doesnot exist, our assistance is being reduced or withheld.

The bulk of our long-term assistance is in the form of loans repayablein dollars. Expenditures for loans are estimated to rise in 1965 by$60 million. Complementing these loans is technical assistance fi-nanced primarily through development grants. This assistance helpsprovide the human skills, education, and institutions that are basicto social and economic progress. Expenditures for such grants are

estimated at $225 million in 1965, approximately the same amountas estimated for 1964.

Alliance for Progress.—The principles of social and economic reform,which underlay the creation of the Alliance for Progress less than 3years ago, are taking root in the countries of Latin America. Thougheconomic and social change occurs only slowly, these countries areable to use our development assistance more effectively with eachpassing year. To encourage and accelerate passage of these countriesthrough the crucial early stages of progress, Alliance for Progressdevelopment assistance is being concentrated in those countrieswhich show evidence of adopting internal policies conducive toeconomic development.

This budget includes new obligational authority of $550 million forthe Alliance for 1965. In addition, the lending capacity of the Inter-American Development Bank will be augmented, and resources willbe provided through the Export-Import Bank, the Food for Peaceprogram, and the Peace Corps. Together, these funds will enable usto maintain our current level of contribution and will fulfill our com-mitment to progress in this hemisphere.

Other AID programs.—Our foreign assistance program provides sup-porting assistance grants where necessary to maintain political andeconomic stability in critical areas of the world, and to meet certainother security objectives. Expenditures for supporting assistance in1965 will be $335 million, $80 million less than in 1964, as more coun-tries become able to use development loans instead of grants.

In 1965, the Agency for International Development will continueto make voluntary contributions for international programs whichcomplement our long-range bilateral efforts, such as the United Na-tions Special Fund and Technical Assistance program and the IndusBasin Development program administered by the International Bankfor Reconstruction and Development.

Other economic and financial programs.—To advance furtherthe concept of partnership on which the Alliance for Progress is based,the United States is proposing to strengthen and expand the activitiesof the Inter-American Development Bank. Legislation will be pro-posed for the enlargement of the resources of the Bank used for long-term, low-interest loans, under arrangement subject to negotiationswith the Bank's members.

The new obligational authority recommended for 1965 for inter-national financial institutions includes $206 million as the first install-

ment of a $412 million increase in the U.S. subscription to callablecapital stock of the Inter-American Development Bank. No expend-iture is contemplated under this increase, but the move will facilitatethe Bank's issuance of its securities in financial markets in the UnitedStates and abroad.

The fifth and final installment of $62 million also requested in thisbudget for the International Development Association fulfills ourinitial pledge to finance, along with 15 other industrial countries,the development loans provided on favorable terms by this institution.An authorization request of $312 million is now pending before theCongress for U.S. participation in a second round of pledges, recentlynegotiated; the first expenditure under the new pledge will not berequired until fiscal year 1966.

Continuing its efforts to increase U.S. exports, the Export-ImportBank will expand its loans to foreign borrowers for the purchase ofU.S. exports and also its guarantees of the private financing of U.S.exports. Under the Bank's highly successful arrangement with therecently formed Foreign Credit Insurance Association, more than 70private insurance companies participate in insuring a rapidly growingvolume of private U.S. export financing against both commercial andpolitical risks. In 1965, the Bank is expected to have net receiptsof $856 million, about $200 million more than in 1964, reflectingprimarily an increase in the sale to private buyers of certificates ofparticipation in its portfolio.

In recognition of the growing overseas demand for the services ofPeace Corps volunteers and the continued increase in applicationsfor service in the Corps, the number of volunteers is expected torise from 10,500 in 1964 to 14,000 in 1965, requiring an estimatedincrease in expenditures of $17 million over the current year's level.

Grants of surplus agricultural commodities under the Food forPeace program are distributed for disaster relief and also made avail-able to support economic development projects. This part of theprogram provides milk and other nutritious foods to millions of schoolchildren around the world and makes possible more adequate diets forworkers on development projects. It is expected to continue in1965 at about the same level as in 1964.

Foreign information and exchange activities.—Primary re-sponsibility for improving mutual understanding with other countriesand for informing them about our aims and attitudes rests with theDepartment of State and the. United States Information Agency.

Expenditures for the exchange activities of the Department ofState are estimated to decline by $18 million in 1965, reflecting pri-

8 6 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

cnarily a nonrecurring grant of $25 million in the previous year for theestablishment of a Japan-America Foundation. The quality andimpact of educational and cultural exchange activities will beimproved.

The United States Information Agency will carry forward its pro-grams in 1965 with no increase in personnel. Nevertheless, theAgency will continue to expand and improve its television program-ing for Latin America, its radio broadcasts to Africa, and its world-wide motion picture activities.

Attention will be devoted to informational materials in support ofcounterinsurgency efforts in certain Far East countries. New obliga-tional authority is being requested for 1965 to complete one new Voiceof America radio facility and to modernize another.

Conduct of foreign affairs.—The Department of State continuesto face increasingly complex foreign affairs responsibilities. Fouryears ago, diplomatic and consular posts were maintained in 82countries; today they are maintained in 111 countries. As more newnations gain their independence, this upward trend will continue.Other workloads are also expected to rise. For example, in 1965 a10% increase over 1964 is expected in the number of passports andnonimmigrant visas issued.

Nevertheless, employment levels and total expenditures for theDepartment's conduct of foreign affairs are estimated to be virtuallythe same in 1965 as in 1964. While increased expenditures are esti-mated for support of the Foreign Service, including improved com-munications and needed office and housing facilities overseas, theywill be offset by a decrease in contributions to international organi-zations.

The budget includes amounts to pay the costs of U.S. membershipin the United Nations and other international organizations whichare vital elements in the multilateral approach to peace, stability,and progress. During the past year, new arrangements were approvedby the General Assembly, which reduce the U.S. share of U.N. peaceand security costs; the estimates in this budget are based on thosearrangements.

The U.S. Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, while makingsmall reductions in its staff, will expand its contract research programin 1965. Its main work will continue to be the research needed forthe formulation and presentation of U.S. positions at internationaldisarmament meetings.

Expenditures of the Foreign Claims Settlement Commission areestimated to be unusually high in fiscal years 1964 and 1965 because

SPACE RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY

The programs of the National Aeronautics and Space Administra-tion are designed to maintain American supremacy in space and todemonstrate this supremacy by achieving a manned landing on themoon in this decade. Besides manned space flight these programsinclude the exploration of space by unmanned spacecraft; the develop-ment of satellite technology for meteorological, communications, andother applications; and the advancement of basic research and tech-nological development on which both our aeronautical and space effortsdepend.

possible by a detailed review of all requirements, careful allocation ofresources, and improved program management over the past year.

Expenditures for the space program in 1965 are estimated at slightlyless than $5.0 billion, which is $590 million more than the estimatefor 1964. The increase is mainly to fulfill obligations already incurred,as payments are made for equipment, facilities, and services contractedfor in prior years and delivered in 1965.

Manned space flight.—Manned space flight activities, which accountfor over two-thirds of the budget of the National Aeronautics andSpace Administration, are focused on the top priority objective ofachieving a manned lunar landing in this decade. The launch vehicle,spacecraft, and supporting development programs required to meetthis objective will provide the broad technological capability forengaging in other space activities in the years ahead.

Reductions in the appropriations for 1964 from the amounts re-quested have delayed initial flight testing in the Saturn and Apolloprograms. These reductions will be partially offset by the proposed1964 supplemental appropriation. Other steps, such as a cutbackin the number of planned flights and adoption of a new approach oftesting complete space vehicles—instead of testing separate stages-will help to make up the delays in meeting the goal of landing menon the moon.

The level of activity in support of the 3-man Apollo lunar space-craft development program will reach its peak during 1965 with 13flight spacecraft in production by the end of the year. The Saturn Vrocket program will be proceeding rapidly along its development cyclein preparation for launching the Apollo spacecraft, and will accountfor about $850 million of the estimated 1965 expenditures. Thisrocket, standing 37 stories high, will be able to place in orbit a pay-load about 10 times heavier than that of the Saturn I, the largestrocket known to be in existence today.

The Saturn I first stage has successfully flown four times in fourattempts. With the addition of a high-energy upper stage, largepayloads will be orbited in 1965 to pave the way for manned Apolloflights. By the end of the year, the Saturn IB rockets, which willlaunch the manned Apollo spacecraft for earth orbital flights, will beundergoing acceptance testing in preparation for delivery to the JohnF. Kennedy Space Center for initial flight tests.

Manned flights of the 2-man Gemini spacecraft will be conductedduring 1965 to add to the Nation's store of spaceflight experience andto continue the training and preparation of astronauts for flights tothe moon.

Unmanned investigations in space.—Unmanned investigations inspace will continue in 1965 by means of large observatory satellitesable to conduct a variety of experiments. These satellites are themost economical for the amount of scientific data collected in relationto the number of spacecraft launched. As further economy measures,the number of observatory satellites ordered has been trimmed tomeet optimum production schedules, and incentive contracting hasbeen instituted.

Unmanned explorations of the moon preparatory to manned land-ings will be continued with additional flights of the Ranger spacecraft,which will televise the moon's surface as it approaches. Emphasiswill be placed on the development of the more advanced Surveyorspacecraft, which can "soft land" instruments on the moon, nowthat the liquid hydrogen fueled Centaur upper stage rocket has under-gone a successful flight test. The first Surveyor flights are scheduledfor 1965. Development of the Lunar Orbiter Spacecraft, which willexamine the surface of the moon from lunar orbit, will also moveforward.

Mariner space flights, one of which was so successful in exploringthe planet Venus, will be continued for investigations of the planetMars, with the next flight scheduled to take place during fiscal 1965.

In the communications field, Relay and Syncom satellites will bein orbit during the coming year for civil and military experiments.The Relay low-altitude satellite can receive and retransmit televisionand telephone signals from one ground station to another as it movesaround the earth. The Syncom high-altitude satellite is placed inorbit above the earth so that it is synchronized with the earth'sspeed and stays directly over the same spot on the earth's surface.

Development of a new advanced satellite for experiments in spacetechnology related to a variety of space applications, such as communi-cations, meteorology, and space science, will be continued in 1965.

Other research, technology, and supporting operations.—The support-ing programs on which space operations and long-term improvementsin the space program depend will continue in 1965. These programsinclude the NASA worldwide tracking system, research and develop-ment in aeronautics and space technology, and support of collegeand university programs in the space sciences, including the trainingof candidates for advanced degrees.

AGRICULTURE AND AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES

Agricultural productivity continues to increase. Total farm outputin calendar year 1963 was 12% above the 1957-59 average and repre-sented a new record high for the sixth consecutive year. Althoughthe rise in crop output since 1960 has been limited by acreage reduc-tions under the feed grain and wheat programs, rising yields for theseand other crops have accompanied such reductions. Crop harvestsin 1963 were greater than in 1960, despite the 5% decline in the acreageused for crops and an 11% reduction in total agricultural man-hours.Nonetheless, during the past 2 years the carryover of wheat has beencut from a high of 1.4 billion to 1.2 billion bushels and the carryoverof feed grains from 85 million to 62 million tons.

The longrun upward trend, in agricultural productivity has con-tributed heavily to the Nation's economic growth. But it is also afactor contributing to the current unsatisfactory incomes of manyof our farmers and the continued high budgetary costs of our farmprograms. While too large a part of our productive resources is stilldevoted to agriculture, we have derived important advantages from theresulting excess farm production by using agricultural commodities toraise the level of living of low-income people in our own Nation and toprovide needed food assistance to people of other nations.

legislation designed to improve our present farm programs and pro-mote more effective use of present rural resources will be proposed tothe Congress early in this session.

Payments to the public for agricultural programs in 1965 are esti-mated at $5.1 billion, down $1.3 billion from 1964. The reductionreflects mainly substantial declines in anticipated expenditures for(1) farm price support and Food for Peace programs financed by theCommodity Credit Corporation, (2) the rural housing loan programof the Farmers Home Administration, and (3) the meat, poultry, andgrain inspection programs. Part of the reduction is also the resultof increased efficiency and reduced personnel requirements. Depart-ment of Agriculture employment is estimated to decline from 116,800at the end of 1964 to 115,376 by the end of the fiscal year 1965.

Farm income stabilization and Food for Peace.—Expenditures forfarm income stabilization and Food for Peace, accounting for 74%of total payments for agriculture and agricultural resources, areestimated to be $996 million less in fiscal year 1965 than in 196 4.Most of the decrease results from (1) estimated lower unit costs ofagricultural commodities, primarily wheat, shipped under the Foodfor Peace program and the International Wheat Agreement, and (2)anticipated budgetary savings from proposed legislation for cotton anddairy products.

Legislative proposals designed to make cotton available at lowerprices to domestic users, while still providing essential income supportto cotton producers, are now pending before the Congress. TheAdministration has supported the objectives of this legislation. It is,however, possible to accomplish these goals at a reduced budgetarycost, and proposals to this effect will be transmitted to the Congressshortly. There are several pending legislative proposals before theCongress, supported by the Administration, which would improvethe dairy program. The combined effect of the legislative proposalsfor cotton and dairy products would reduce the 1965 net budgetexpenditures of the Commodity Credit Corporation by $230 million.

Titles I and II of Public Law 480 (Agricultural Trade Developmentand Assistance Act) expire on December 31, 1964, and extension isrecommended. Title I, under which sales of agricultural commoditiesare made for foreign currencies, is the principal authority for andaccounts for most of the expenditures for the Food for Peace program.

Rental contracts will expire during 1964 on 7.4 million acres ofcropland that was placed in the conservation reserve between 1956and 1960 and during the 1-year extension in 1963. Under this pro-gram, farmers contracted to retire cropland from production forspecified periods. Legislation is being proposed to establish anexpanded cropland conversion program under which the emphasis ison permanent rather than temporary shifts of cropland to less inten-sive uses. This approach would provide a lasting contribution toadjustment of agricultural production to available markets. Thebudget includes new obligational authority of $50 million for thisprogram in 1964 and $50 million to continue the program in 1965;of these requests, $40 million is under the proposed expanded programfor these years and $10 million is under existing legislative authority.

Financing rural electrification and rural telephones.—Funds recom-mended for the Rural Electrification Administration will permitelectrification loan commitments of $300 million in 1965, the samelevel as in 1964. Loan commitments of $85 million are estimated in1965 for the telephone program. In addition, a contingency reserveof $65 million is included to be available for both loan programs, tobe used to the extent necessary. Under new procedures now beingdeveloped by the Rural Electrification Administration for review ofloans for generation and transmission of electricity, it is expected thatlocal cooperatives and commercial power suppliers will be able toreach agreement more frequently. As a consequence, the volume ofFederal generation and transmission loans in 1964 and 1965 is esti-mated to be lower than in 1963.

New obligational authority recommended for the electrificationand telephone programs in 1965 reflects anticipated early enactmentof proposed legislation to authorize use of collections on outstanding-electrification and telephone loans to help finance new loans. Underthis legislation, estimated collections of $169 million in 1964 and $178million in 1965 will be available to help finance the 1965 loan programs,thereby reducing the amount of new obligational authority required.

Financing farming and rural housing.—The Farmers Home Ad-ministration deals with unsatisfactory farming, housing, and otherrural conditions that can be improved through the use of direct Federalloans and insurance of private credit. The substantial reduction of

Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY FUNCTION 95

$152 million in estimated budget expenditures for these programs from1964 to 1965 reflects mainly proposed legislation which would largelyreplace direct Federal loans with insured private credit in the financingof the rural housing program. This action is part of a Government-wide policy of using private rather than public funds in credit programsto the maximum extent feasible. The 1965 estimates for the FarmersHome Administration provide for an enlarged program to financerural housing for the elderly and for continuation of the pilot ruralrenewal program.

Agricultural land and water resources,—Expenditures for these pro-grams are estimated to increase moderately in 1965. The estimatesprovide for continuing a new pilot program, started in 1964, underwhich loans and grants are made to rural communities to promoteconservation and development of land and water resources on anareawide basis. Funds recommended for the upstream watershedprotection program will permit about 36 new starts in 1965, as well ascontinuation of work on projects already underway; a small expansionis provided for the Great Plains conservation program.

Expenditures in 1965 under the agricultural conservation programare estimated at $220 million, excluding administrative expenses, basedon the $220 million advance authorization by the Congress for the 1964program year. An advance authorization of $120 million is proposedfor the 1965 program year. This amount will be adequate to permit theGovernment to share with farmers the cost of high priority conserva-tion practices.

Research and other agricultural services.—Control of pesticides willbe an important part of the research program in both 14)64 and 1965.Ways will be sought to avoid pesticide hazards, the side effects of dis-ease and pest control will be evaluated, and pesticide regulationwill be improved. In addition, construction at Beltsville, Md., of along needed National Agricultural Library is expected to begin in 1965.

Greater workloads in inspection activities will result from continuedincreases in the production of meat and poultry products. Thenumber of establishments in which Federal meat inspection is per-formed is expected to rise from 1,696 in 1964 to 1,760 in 1965. Tofurther the general policy that beneficiaries of special Governmentservices should be charged for such services, legislation will be pro-

posed to finance directly the full cost of meat, poultry, and graininspection activities through a system of fees. Collections from thesefees are estimated at $49 million in 1965.

NATURAL RESOURCES

The United States is fortunate in having abundant natural re-sources. These resources must be wisely managed and developed tomeet the needs of a growing population and an expanding economy.Estimated payments to the public of $2.7 billion in 1965 for naturalresources will provide for continued investments in resource conserva-tion and development—investments which will contribute to ourfuture economic growth.

Land and water resources.—A large part of the $1.8 billion of esti-mated 1965 expenditures for land and water resources will advanceprojects started in prior years to supply water to our cities, industries,and farms; abate water pollution; prevent the ravages of floods;generate electric power; improve navigation; and increase recreationalopportunities. In addition, the budget provides for an orderly pro-gram of new construction starts.

The new obligational authority proposed for 1965 for the Corps ofEngineers includes appropriations of $16 million to start constructionof 34 projects with an estimated total Federal cost of $378 million.The program for the Bureau of Reclamation provides for 10 newstarts (including 3 small project loans) estimated to cost a totalof $134 million, and requiring appropriations of $7 million for 1965.Enactment of pending legislation is recommended to provide uniformstandards and- obtain appropriate cost sharing for the recreation andfish and wildlife aspects of water resources projects of these twoagencies.

Coordinated planning for the orderly and progressive developmentof water and related land resources in a number of river basins will becontinued in 1965 by the Departments of the Army, Interior, Agricul-ture, and Health, Education, and Welfare. The Senate recentlyapproved legislation which would further promote the coordination ofplanning between Federal and State agencies and authorize limitedFederal grants to assist State planning.

of grants to States to stimulate further research to help us make themost effective use of our water resources.

Funds appropriated for 1964 are available to begin construction ofthe interconnection between the electric power systems of the PacificNorthwest and Pacific Southwest after enactment of Pacific Northwestmarketing area legislation and after the Secretary of the Interior hasnegotiated with non-Federal interests. Federal power marketingsystems will be strengthened in 1965 to meet increased requirements inareas served by Federal hydroelectric projects, including the provisionof a high-voltage power distribution system for the Bonneville PowerAdministration.

Funds are included in the budget to enable the Federal PowerCommission to step up its examination of interstate wholesale electricpower rates. Substantial progress has been made by the Commissionin reducing its backlog of natural gas cases, involving the ordering ofover $500 million in refunds of excess charges.

The Tennessee Valley Authority will carry forward the developmentof natural resources in the valley in cooperation with State, local, andprivate groups. Development of the Land Between the Lakesrecreation demonstration area will proceed. In 1965 TVA willproceed with the construction of steam-electric power units started inprior years to meet the growing demand for power in its marketingarea. These power facilities are financed with revenues from sales ofpower and with borrowings from the public.

The budget includes funds for the management and development of477 million acres of public domain lands and the administration ofmineral leasing on the submerged lands of the Outer ContinentalShelf. It provides additional funds to rehabilitate burned-over landsand to improve the maintenance of roads and buildings.

Indian affairs.—Since 1961, economic development programs forIndians have resulted in the establishment of 25 industrial plants on ornear Indian reservations. These will provide about 4,000 additionaljobs. To help Indian people achieve further economic and socialdevelopment, the 1965 budget continues emphasis on elementary,secondary, and adult education, and adult vocational and on-the-jobtraining. Educational assistance will be provided for 57,000 childrenand 12,000 adults in 1965, compared with assistance to 48,000 childrenand 8,000 adults in 1963.

To help meet the growing need for credit to develop Indian re-sources, legislation will be proposed to authorize Federal guaranteesof loans by private lenders and to increase the authorization for theexisting direct loan program.

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY FUNCTION 99

Forest resources.—Expenditures for forest resources, estimated at$339 million iri 1965, will provide for construction of access roads,reforestation, and development of recreation areas on the 186 millionacres of the national forest system; these activities will provide sub-stantial employment opportunities in rural areas. Access roads areneeded to allow an increase in the amount of timber cut; over 11billion board feet of timber are expected to be harvested in nationalforests in 1965, compared with 10 billion board feet in 1963. Similarly,more recreation facilities are essential for the expected 155 millionvisits to national forests in calendar year 1965, compared with 125million in calendar year 1963.

An addition to the Forest Products Laboratory in Madison, Wis.,will be constructed in 1965. This will permit expanded research onwood utilization techniques and standards, resulting in benefits to thelumber industry, landowners, and consumers.

Recreational resources.—Expenditures for recreational resourcesunder existing legislation are estimated to remain at about the currentyear's level in 1965. Most of these expenditures are for the manage-ment and development of our 26-million-acre national park system.A total of 102 million visits to the parks is expected in calendar year1965, an increase of 9% over 1963.

A rapidly growing population, increased urbanization, and addedleisure time emphasize the importance of preserving additional sea-shore and other areas with important recreation potential. Accord-ingly, legislation already recommended should be enacted to authorizefurther Federal acquisition of several such areas, as well as to protectour remaining wilderness areas.

Legislation is also needed to authorize Federal grants to States forplanning, land acquisition, and development of recreation facilities.This legislation would provide for user charges so that direct bene-ficiaries of Federal recreation areas will help defray the costs.

Fish and wildlife resources.—The estimated expenditures of $110million in 1965 for these activities include amounts for acceleratingresearch on the effects of pesticides, for supporting the nationaloceanographic research effort, and for other studies to aid the fishingindustry. The budget also provides for the development and opera-tion of 100 fish hatcheries and 298 wildlife refuges and for the acqui-sition of wetlands for migratory waterfowl; these activities benefit 25million sport fishermen and 15 million hunters.

Mineral resources and general resource surveys.—Efforts will con-tinue in 1965 to find ways of increasing the utilization of the Nation's

coal supply, including the conversion of coal to gaseous and liquidforms that may economically be used to satisfy our growing energyrequirements. Added efforts will also be made to find methods ofreducing health and safety hazards in mining operations.

Topographic surveys and mapping, basic to many private andpublic development programs, will be extended. By the end of 1964,69% of the United States will have been surveyed for topographicmaps at a standard scale of 1 mile to the inch or larger; an additional2.5% will be surveyed during 1965. The budget also provides forincreased studies on the composition of the upper mantle of the earth'scrust. These studies will add to our knowledge of the formation ofmineral deposits and contribute to the development of techniques forlocating deep-lying mineral bodies.

Helium is important to our defense and space programs and forscientific, industrial, and medical uses. The Federal Governmentoperates five plants and contracts with four private firms for the pur-chase of helium extracted from natural gases for future sale and use.If not extracted, this limited and nonreplaceable resource is wastedas a noncombustible part of natural gas used for fuel. About 787million cubic feet of helium are expected to be produced by Govern-ment plants in 1965, and 3.7 billion cubic feet will be produced for theGovernment by private contractors. Of this total, about 3.9 billioncubic feet will be conserved for the Nation's future needs. -

COMMERCE AND TRANSPORTATION

The Federal Government provides a wide range of financial, tech-nical, and other aids to private business, particularly to small enter-prises and those in areas of persistent unemployment. It also helpsstrengthen our economy by improving transportation and communica-tion facilities, regulating certain types of business activity, and en-couraging competition where necessary to protect the public interest.

In 1965, payments to the public for these purposes will total anestimated $6.6 billion. Over half of this total represents trust fundexpenditures for Federal-aid highways, which are estimated to increaseby $99 million over the 1964 level.

Administrative budget expenditures of $3.1 billion are estimated tobe $82 million below the estimate for 1964. Federal loans and grantsto aid redevelopment of depressed areas will increase because ofprevious commitments, and minimum essential expansions areproposed for Federal aviation, weather activities, and certain otherprograms. However, these increases will be more than offset by re-ductions in outlays for the temporary public works acceleration pro-gram begun in fiscal 1963, for the postal service, and for various otherprograms.

and technology, weather and census information, and loans andspecial services to small businesses.

To foster the expansion of U.S. exports, the 1965 budget provides$22 million in new obligational authority, $4 million more than in1964, to strengthen the export promotion program of the Departmentof Commerce. These funds will be used to encourage private firmsto increase their exports, expand the number of exporting firms,provide more trade centers in foreign countries, and enlarge thenumber of American firms exhibiting their products at commercialtrade fairs overseas.

Maintenance of the traditional U.S. leadership in technology isvital both to economic growth at home and effective competition inworld markets. Increases of $9 million in new obligational authorityare requested in this budget to expand the activities of the Bureauof Standards, the Patent Office, and the Office of Technical Servicesso that better services can be provided to business and industry.

The rapid growth of Government-sponsored research has increasedthe importance of making the results of this research available to theinterested public. Accordingly, the Commerce Department's roleas a clearinghouse for a great variety of technical information isbeing strengthened. For example, funds are provided for the Officeof Technical Services to assume responsibility for distribution of allunclassified research reports by the Department of Defense—a stepwhich is expected to bring economies as well as improve service. Inaddition, the Bureau of Standards is establishing a National StandardReference Data System to make verified data in the physical sciencesconveniently available to science and industry. By accomplishingthe time-consuming evaluation of information at a central point, re-search and engineering work should be made more efficient throughoutAmerican industry. In a few years, savings by Government con-tractors alone should exceed the additional budgetary costs.

During the past year, the responsibility for planning and coordi-nating the Government's extensive meteorological activities has beencentralized in the Department of Commerce in order to avoid dupli-cating expenditures for weather operations, supporting research, andequipment. A review of the meteorological satellite programs of theWeather Bureau and the National Aeronautics and Space Adminis-tration has disclosed that during the next few years operating require-ments can be met satisfactorily with a less sophisticated system thanhad previously been planned. By terminating the plan to launch anumber of Nimbus satellites, in their present design, for use in routineweather operations, and using instead a simplified spacecraft similarto the successful NASA Tiros, the Weather Bureau will be able tohold annual costs over the next several years roughly $20 millionbelow the level previously estimated.

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY FUNCTION 103

Provision is made in the budget for continued improvement in1965 of the statistics used by both Government and private groupsto measure our economic and social development, as discussed inSpecial Analysis J. Work on the 5-year economic censuses coveringmanufacturing, mineral industries, transportation, and the distribu-tion and service trades will be almost completed in 1965. Enumera-tion of the Census of Agriculture will occur early in the fiscal year,requiring a temporary net increase of $5 million in expenditures by theBureau of the Census to $36 million. This latter census has beentaken regularly since 1840 and provides valuable benchmark dataneeded to understand changes occurring in agriculture.

Although net expenditures of the Small Business Administrationare estimated to remain level in 1965, the agency will continue toexpand the financial and other assistance it provides the small busi-ness community. This will be accomplished by using funds alreadyavailable and funds which will become available from repaymentsand sales of earlier loans. The level of new commitments for smallbusiness loans will be increased to $258 million in 1965, $31 millionmore than in 1964. Commitments to small business investmentcompanies and State and local development companies are estimatedat $126 million in 1965, an increase of $20 million over 1964. At thesame time, measures to simplify administrative procedures are en-couraging increased participation by private lenders, thus reducingthe need for Federal assistance.

Area redevelopment.—The Department of Commerce, with theassistance of other major departments and agencies, provides a broadrange of Government aids to help depressed areas rebuild their eco-nomic base and thus create additional permanent employment.Expenditures for the area redevelopment program enacted in May1961 will increase from $98 million in 1964 to $130 million in 1965,primarily for loans to finance construction of industrial and com-mercial facilities. The loans, grants, and technical assistance financedfrom prior authority and from the new obligational authority of $222million recommended for 1965 will help provide 150,000 workers withpermanent employment in these economically depressed areas. The1965 budget assumes enactment of legislation currently pending inthe Congress to increase the maximum authorization on the varioustypes of Federal assistance; these additional authorizations are re-quired to carry out the program planned in 1965.

No provision is made in the budget for extension of the temporaryaccelerated public works piogram initiated in fiscal year 1963. How-ever, an appropriation of $5 million remaining under the legislativeauthority is requested for contingencies and to administer ongoingprojects. Expenditures for projects already approved are estimated

at $245 million in 1965, down $120 million from 1964. These includeover 2,400 waste treatment plants and water supply facilities, morethan 1,000 street construction and repair projects, 281 hospitals andhealth facilities, and other useful public works.

Transportation policies.—Major steps have been taken to im-prove and coordinate the planning of Federal transportation pro-grams which should pay dividends in better transportation and re-duced costs to carriers, transportation users, and taxpayers. Sev-eral major legislative revisions of national transportation policy andprograms which are pending before the Congress would further theseobjectives. They include: (1) amendments to exempt from mini-mum rate control carriers of bulk commodities, agriculture and fish-ery products, and intercity passengers; (2) various proposals to pro-tect shippers, encourage rate and service experiments, foster through-routes and joint rates, and improve the effectiveness of regulation;and (3) Federal assistance for rehabilitation and expansion of masstransportation systems in urban communities, discussed underHousing and Community Development.

In fairness to the taxpayers and to encourage efficient use of Gov-ernment-financed transportation facilities, the substantial specialbenefits received by travelers and shippers from Federal expenditureson aviation and inland waterways should be paid for at least in partby the users of these facilities. Accordingly, recommendations havebeen made for increased transportation user charges; these recom-mendations are discussed in Part 3 of this budget.

Aviation.—The Federal Aviation Agency is continuing to expandand modernize the national system of air traffic control and navigationaids. The use of manpower is being improved and obsolete or unneces-sary facilities and services are being eliminated. Partly as a resultof these economies, the recommendation for $751 million in newobligational authority for 1965 is below the 1964 appropriation forthe Agency's regular programs.

The joint industry-Government program to develop a civil super-sonic transport aircraft for which $60 million was appropriated in1964, is proceeding on schedule. Design proposals have been receivedfrom prospective manufacturers and will shortly be evaluated fortechnical and economic feasibility. Expenditures for this programare estimated to increase in 1965 by $42 million. All other expendi-tures of the FAA, taken together, are estimated to decline slightlyfrom 1964 to 1965, despite increases in air traffic and the relatedworkloads.

Page 102: bus_1965

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY FUNCTION 105

Water transportation.—Expenditures by the Department of Com-merce for ocean shipping will decrease by an estimated $15 million in1965, primarily because operating subsidy payments in 1964 completedliquidation of an accumulation of prior year obligations which willnot recur. However, the new obligational authority recommendedis up by $12 million over 1964, principally for the ship replacementprogram, including increased provision of automated equipmentdesigned to reduce operating subsidies in future years. Starts on17 new ships will be made as part of the continuing program to re-place obsolete vessels in the subsidized fleet. Efforts to revitalizethe U.S. merchant marine will continue, with particular attention tolabor-management relations and application of new technology, inorder to improve the competitive position of the U.S. fleet and thusreduce over the long run the need for Government subsidies.

Expenditures by the Coast Guard will rise by an estimated $29million in 1965, primarily because of fixed commitments for increasedmilitary pay and related personnel costs and larger outlays necessaryfor maintenance of vessels. New obligational authority of $90 million,an increase of $39 million over 1964, is requested for acquisition, con-struction, and improvement of Coast Guard facilities; the requestrepresents the 1965 installment of a long-range program to acceleratereplacement of obsolete vessels and expand air rescue facilities.

Highways.—Federal highway expenditures are financed almost en-tirely from taxes on highway users which are deposited in the highwaytrust fund. They are financed on a pay-as-you-build basis with thelevel of revenues controlling expenditures. Trust fund expenditureswill increase by $99 million in 1965 to an estimated $3,650 million.About three-quarters of this total is for the Interstate Highway System,which is scheduled for completion in 1972. Over 15,400 miles of this41,000-mile system are now open to traffic and another 16,600 milesare in various stages of development. Almost all remaining trustfund expenditures are for the primary and secondary Federal-aidhighway systems. The budget assumes enactment of legislationextending these latter programs for two years at the present annuallevel of $975 million.

Postal service.—Expenditures of the postal service in 1965 willexceed postal revenues by an estimated $475 million. This compareswith $770 million in 1963 and an estimated $546 million in 1964. Thedecreases from 1963 result from the postal rate increases whichbecame effective in January 1963, an increase in parcel post ratesexpected to go into effect April 1, 1964, and provision of better

service at less cost. The 1965 postal deficit, the amount by whichpostal revenues fail to cover postal costs after deducting public servicecosts, is estimated at $89 million.

Current programs to improve the efficiency of postal operationsare expected to accomplish substantial results in the years ahead.The cooperation of large mailers in converting their mailing lists tothe new ZIP Code will reduce mail processing costs by increasing theamount of presorted mail presented to post offices. An automaticaddress reader and a computer-controlled letter sorter to process ZIP-coded mail are being developed and are expected to be ready forinstallation in 1967. Establishment of new centers for the receiptand dispatch of mail, and the consolidation of the mail processingfunctions of small post offices into large central processing facilitiesare continuing—with further savings anticipated in transportationand mail processing costs as well as better service to the public.

Regulation of business.—Pending legislation should be enacted tohelp protect millions of small investors by extending the present dis-

Additional funds are requested for the Federal Maritime Com-mission to meet increased workloads and to permit the agency topursue actively its effort to assure that fair and reasonable ratesgovern the movement of commodities in our waterborne foreign com-merce in support of our export expansion program.

HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT

Since the enactment of the Housing Act of 1949, our national hous-ing policy has been directed toward the long-run goal, set in that act,of "a decent home and a suitable living environment for everyAmerican family." Through grants, direct loans and mortgagepurchases, and especially through insurance of private credit, Federal

programs have stimulated widespread investment by private individ-uals and groups, as well as by local communities, in housing construc-tion and community development. As a result, repayments andsales of mortgages and other assets acquired in earlier years, togetherwith other receipts, are now exceeding the amount required to financenecessary increases in Federal housing activities. Net receipts of$317 million are estimated in the administrative budget for housingand community development programs in 1965, compared with esti-mated net receipts of $191 million in 1964. Total Federal receiptsfrom the public for these programs are expected to exceed paymentsto the public in 1965 by $40 million.

Urban renewal and community facilities.—All the authorityavailable for urban renewal capital grants provided by the HousingAct of 1961 will have been earmarked for specific projects by the closeof the current fiscal year. Accordingly, legislation to authorize anadditional $1.4 billion in grants is recommended for prompt enact-ment. This will permit reservations of funds for projects to continuefor 2 additional years at about the current level, and will provide forproposed increases in payments to families and small businessesdisplaced by urban renewal.

Meanwhile, urban renewal projects financed in earlier years con-tinue to advance toward completion. The number of older projectscompleted during the year will rise from 51 to 65. Specific plans willbe submitted and approved for an estimated 200 projects in 1965,compared to 165 in the current year. This increased activity andthe proposed higher relocation payments will result in an increase of$75 million in expenditures for capital grants from 1964.

The rise in expenditures in 1965 for loans to assist smaller com-munities in financing essential public facilities will be more than offsetby higher receipts from sales of loans made in earlier years. Thesuccessful sale of such loans, which were originally made by the Gov-

ernment because they were unacceptable to private investors, is asmall but significant part of the Government-wide efforts to substituteprivate for public credit wherever possible.

Pending legislation to assist urban mass transportation systemswould authorize Federal grants, direct loans, and loan guarantees in-volving new obligational authority totaling $375 million over a 3-yearperiod. The 1965 budget includes $75 million in new obligationalauthority and $10 million in expenditures for the first year of opera-tion under the new program.

New obligational authority of $25 million is needed to continue theurban planning assistance program. This program, while small interms of expenditures, offers potential savings by assuring that Federalaids to community development are put to the most effective use,particularly in our growing metropolitan areas.

Public housing programs.—The authority provided in the HousingAct of 1961 to make contracts for annual contributions to local hous-ing authorities to support construction of additional low-rent publichousing units will be exhausted by the end of the current fiscal year.Legislation is being requested to authorize contracts for an additional200,000 units over the next 4 years, together with amendments toimprove the flexibility and effectiveness of the present program.

Expenditures under present programs will rise to $222 millionin 1965, as additional units built under prior authorizations are com-pleted and become eligible for annual contributions, and as more unitsoccupied by elderly persons become eligible for the special additionalcontributions authorized in 1961. Estimated net expenditures in1964 are unusually low because of nonrecurring receipts from privaterefinancing of the last $53 million of local housing authority bondsowned by the Public Housing Administration.

Aids to private housing.—Federal assistance to private housing hasgenerally been accomplished by encouraging private credit markets tosupply more adequate financing. The Housing and Home FinanceAgency provides such assistance primarily by insuring loans made byprivate institutions and by maintaining secondary market facilitiesto improve the marketability of such loans. The Federal Savings andLoan Insurance Corporation, through insurance of savings and loanaccounts, encourages small savers to pool their funds for home mort-gage lending. The Federal home loan banks supplement such fundsby lending to member savings and loan associations which experienceloan demands temporarily greater than they can meet.

It is expected that private funds will continue to be available in1965 for a considerable volume of investment in federally insured

mortgages. As a result, sales of mortgages previously acquired bythe Government, together with repayments, will exceed the purchasesof new types of insured mortgages, even though an increase in suchpurchases is anticipated—especially for housing of moderate incomefamilies. The turnover of a limited Federal investment thus willpermit maximum support of new housing construction with minimumburden on the Federal budget.

The Federal Housing Administration will continue to make sub-stantial expenditures for mortgage and property acquisitions arisingfrom defaults on insured mortgages. However, these and otherexpenditures will be more than offset by receipts from (1) privatelyfinanced sales of properties, and (2) transfers of mortgages acquiredon previous sales of properties to the Federal National MortgageAssociation for management and sale through its unified mortgageadministration system. As a result, the FHA will have net receiptsestimated at $173 million in 1965, compared to estimated net expendi-tures of $57 million in the current year.

The Federal National Mortgage Association will continue its suc-cessful marketing policies under which all three of its programs lastyear were able not only to finance current operations from receipts, butalso to reduce substantially previous borrowings. Although someincrease is expected in mortgage purchases by the secondary markettrust fund in 1965, this trust fund is buying back this year a sub-stantial part of its preferred stock now held by the Treasury, since itdoes not currently need these funds to finance its operations. Thisrepurchase will reduce administrative budget expenditures by $101million in 1964, but will not affect payments to the public.

To broaden further the range of private investment in federallyinsured and guaranteed mortgage loans, legislation is being proposedto authorize FNMA to issue and sell participations in pools of FHA-insured and VA-guaranteed loans. Enactment of this legislationwould permit sales of such participations in these loans owned by theAssociation amounting to an estimated $200 million in 1965 over andabove sales of individual mortgages under present sales procedures.Sales of similar participations in loans owned by the Veterans Admin-istration are discussed under Veterans Benefits and Services.

The direct loan program for moderate-income rental and cooperativehousing for the elderly is expected to provide for commitments of$100 million in 1965, but expenditures are estimated at only abouthalf this amount because of the lower commitment levels of prioryears. Legislation will be proposed to remove the limit on appro-priations for this program, and an appropriation of $75 million isincluded in this budget for 1965.

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY FUNCTION 1 1 1

The continuing rapid growth of savings and loan associations insuredby the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation is producinga corresponding increase in receipts from insurance premiums, espe-cially from prepayments of premiums required under the 1961 legisla-tion to strengthen the reserves of the Corporation. These increasesin receipts, together with a reduction of outlays required to protectinsured accounts, will reduce net administrative budget expendituresby about $100 million from 1964.

During fiscal year 1964, the Federal home loan banks are expectedto increase their outstanding advances to member savings and loanassociations by $1.2 billion. The banks now anticipate that in 1965receipts from repayments of such advances will exceed new advancesby $100 million. Transactions of these banks are not included in theadministrative budget, but are recorded as trust fund expenditures.

National Capital Region.—The District of Columbia governmentprovides both State and local government services for the industriesand residents of the National Capital city. As the predominantindustry, the Federal Government recognizes a special responsibilityto bear its proper share of the costs.of such services, as well as toprovide long-term loans needed to carry out an orderly program ofcapital improvements. Legislation enacted in 1963 increased theauthorizations for both types of Federal assistance. Additionallegislative authority is needed to provide further increases in theseauthorizations and to base them on appropriate measures of theFederal impact on the community and of the District's ability to repayborrowings.

The specific programs and fiscal requirements of the District ofColumbia government are discussed more fully in the separateDistrict of Columbia budget.

The Federal Government has a unique interest in assuring abalanced transportation system for the National Capital Area.Legislation to authorize rapid rail transit and express bus systemswas transmitted to the Congress in May 1963. Early action topermit a beginning on an acceptable program is essential for theorderly development of the Nation's Capital.

HEALTH, LABOR, AND WELFARE

In 1965 Federal payments to the public for health, labor, andwelfare programs, largely from trust funds financed by special taxes,are estimated to total $28.6 billion, an increase of $1.3 billion overthe estimate for 1964. Most of this increase reflects the built-ingrowth of trust fund programs such as old-age and survivors insurance.

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY FUNCTION 113

Administrative budget expenditures in 1965 are estimated to increaseby $299 million for new and urgently needed programs such as man-power development and training, improved youth employmentopportunities, and medical education.

More than nine-tenths of the estimated payments for health, labor,and welfare in 1965 will be made through the social insurance trustfunds and through grants for public assistance. These paymentsprovide income support for the unemployed, retired, disabled, andother recipients. An estimated 32 million people will receive $30billion of Federal income maintenance payments in 1965, includingveterans payments, military retired pay, and other programs classifiedelsewhere in the budget. Of this amount, $17 billion will be paid to16 million aged persons. Other services and programs costing nearly$2 billion will also be provided for the aged, including the grants forcommunity services and work opportunities proposed in the SeniorCitizens Community Planning and Services Act pending in theCongress.

Health services and research.—The Department of Health,Education, and Welfare will spend an estimated $1,733 million in1965 for health research and training and for public health services,including related consumer protection activities.

Health research.—Annual Federal expenditures in this field exceed$1 billion, of which about three-fifths represents outlays by theNational Institutes of Health. Federal funds support nearly two-thirds of total national expenditures for health research and aboutone-half of such funds go to universities. In addition to providingsupport for specific research projects and for research facilities, thebudget includes funds for general research and training grants. Theseexpenditures make a significant contribution toward maintaining ourleadership in combating disease and in providing trained healthpersonnel.

Health manpower and facilities.—The Enactment of the HealthProfessions Education Assistance Act of 1963 launched a much neededprogram to increase the capacity of medical and dental schools.Construction grants and student loans are designed to increase thenumber of medical school graduates by 50% and to double the numberof dental graduates by 1970. The budget includes a supplementalappropriation of $30 million for 1964 and recommends $86 million ofnew obligational authority for the second-year cost of this program.

To meet the urgent need for more and better qualified professionalnurses, we must by 1970 increase the number of practicing professionalnurses by 25%. Legislation is therefore being proposed to extendand expand the current graduate nurse traineeship program, to au-

thorize the construction of facilities for teaching nurses, and to providefinancial aid for nursing students. Extension and expansion of pro-grams for training professional public health personnel are alsorecommended.

The authorization for the highly successful Hill-Burton Act to aidthe construction of medical facilities expires June 30, 1964, and legisla-tion is recommended to extend this program. During the past 17years the Federal Government has contributed $2 billion under thisact toward the construction of medical facilities costing $6 billion.The program has concentrated on the construction of general com-munity hospitals in rural areas, and has eliminated much of the back-log of need. The proposed legislation would shift the emphasis ofthe program toward modernizing the older general hospitals, largelycentered in urban areas, and toward stimulating construction oflong-term care facilities for the chronically ill and aged. Almost halfof all hospitals require some form of modernization; loan guaranteeswould be used to achieve greater results than are possible with Federalgrants alone. These proposals will provide expanded assistance tocommunities for meeting needs for health facilities.

Mental health.—In recognition of the need for energetic action tocombat mental illness, legislation was enacted in 1963 authorizing a3-year program totaling $150 million for construction of communitymental health centers. The budget includes an appropriation of $35million for 1965. This represents a vital first step in making adequatecare available in the patients' own communities, rather than sendingthem away to distant large mental institutions. Starting in 1964,project grants of $9 million are being made to State mental institutionsfor demonstrations in intensive therapy and training of personnel;these grants will be increased to $18 million in 1965. Including theseprograms, new obligational authority requested for 1965 for theNational Institute of Mental Health and for construction of mentalhealth centers totals $224 million, $48 million more than for 1964.

Mental retardation.—Legislation enacted during 1963, pursuant tothe recommendations of the President's Panel on Mental Retardation,provides a firm basis for a concerted national effort to combat mentalretardation on all fronts.

This legislation augments existing grant programs for services tomentally retarded children, and authorizes a new project grant pro-gram to help reduce the incidence of retardation by comprehensivematernity care to 300,000 mothers who otherwise could not afford it.Additional programs authorized to combat retardation include edu-cational research, teacher training, and community- and university-

based clinics and research centers. The budget provides for a 1964supplemental appropriation of $36 million to start these programs, andappropriations of $72 million are requested for 1965. Including thesenew programs, a total of $243 million in new obligational authorityis recommended for 1965 for services and benefits to the retardedby the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. This request,including both administrative budget and trust funds, is nearly twicethe amount enacted 2 years earlier.

Public health services and health protection,—In 1965, the PublicHealth Service and the Food and Drug Administration will spend$333 million to improve community health services, combat environ-mental health hazards, and provide greater protection for" the healthand safety of consumers.

Control of environmental health hazards depends largely on in-creased research and the availability of specialized manpower. Thebudget includes $32 million of new obligational authority for research,training, and fellowship grants to stimulate further work in this fieldand funds for planning additional Federal research facilities.

This budget provides for a substantial strengthening of activitiesdesigned to increase our knowledge of the long-range effects of pesti-cides on man and other biological systems. Appropriations of $13million are requested for 1965 for the Department of Health, Educa-tion, and Welfare which, together with funds requested for theDepartments of Agriculture and Interior (under other functionalcategories), bring the total requested for this purpose to $56 millionfor 1965, $10 million more than for 1964.

The Clean Air Act of 1963 provides for major new Federal responsi-bilities in controlling and combating air pollution. A supplementalappropriation is proposed for 1964 to initiate activities under this actpromptly. Expenditures of $19 million are estimated in 1965 for allair pollution activities, an increase of $8 million from 1964. Increasedemphasis will also be given to water pollution control, Includingstrengthening of enforcement and research. Eight water pollutionlaboratories will be under construction in 1965 from funds authorizedin previous years.

The Food and Drug Administration will expand its consumerprotection program to carry out the Drug Amendments of 1962. Inaddition, a major reorganization completed in 1963 will enable theagency to give better health and safety protection to the consumer.Legislation is recommended to provide more adequate protectionagainst dangerous cosmetics, harmful and ineffective therapeuticdevices, and to make other needed improvements in the food anddrug laws.

Labor and manpower.—Administrative budget expenditures in1965 for labor and manpower programs are expected to increase by$261 million over 1964, principally to provide training and employ-ment opportunities for unemployed workers and youths.

To help cope with the problem of the more than 900,000 currentlyunemployed among our younger people, the Youth EmploymentAct was proposed last year and is awaiting final action by the Con-gress. This act will provide work and training through conservationwork camps and work projects in local communities. The budgetincludes new obligational authority of $30 million in 1964 and $160

million in 1965 under this legislation, which will benefit an estimated60,000 youths during 1965.

A persistent need exists to train unemployed workers in skills whichwill enable them to find productive employment. This budget pro-vides for $165 million of appropriations for 1964, including a supple-mental appropriation of $55 million, and a total of $411 million inappropriations for 1965 to finance the recently broadened and strength-ened Manpower Development and Training Act program. The newamendments to the Act will make it possible to train 135,000 unem-ployed workers in 1964 and more than 275,000 in 1965, includingmany youths found unqualified for military service. The 1965 totalincludes an estimated 60,000 workers and youths who will receivebasic literacy training to enable them to go on to regular vocationaltraining. In addition to the regular flow of workers who seek train-ing, it is anticipated that more than 300,000 18-year-olds, foundunqualified for military service, will be referred to manpower conserva-tion units in the employment service.

The Federal-State employment service—financed through the un-employment trust fund—represents a key element in the total arrayof programs to assist unemployed workers in obtaining suitable em-ployment. Between 1961 and 1965 total nonagricultural job place-ments through this service will increase by 28%. To continuestrengthening the 1,900 local employment offices throughout thecountry—including special services for older workers—and to meetthe cost of rising State pay scales, the budget includes an increase of$30 million in trust fund expenditures to $452 million in 1965.

The newly established Labor-Management Services Administrationin the Department of Labor will expand its efforts to improve labor-management relations, including general research on collective bargain-ing. Total outlays in the field of labor-management relations areestimated at $41 million in 1965; this includes the labor-managementmediation agencies and the National Labor Relations Board. Legis-lation is being recommended to improve conditions for migrant agri-cultural workers. Legislation is also recommended to amend the FairLabor Standards Act to extend minimum wage and other protectionto more than 2 million additional workers and to authorize higherpenalty pay for overtime in covered industries in which it is foundto be appropriate.

Social insurance and welfare services.—Our economy providesa higher standard of living to a greater proportion of its people thanany other nation. This result has been achieved principally throughthe enterprise and industry of our citizens, but it has been reinforcedby public programs which provide social insurance and other aids orservices to help those families suffering a loss of income because ofunemployment, disability, retirement, or death.

118 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

Social insurance.—Trust fund expenditures under social security,railroad retirement, ajid retirement programs for Federal civilian em-ployees are estimated to be over $20 billion during 1965, an increase of$982 million over 1964.

The basic social security system now covers about 90% of ourworkers and their families. Legislation is recommended, effectiveJanuary 1, 1966, to expand this system to provide protection for theaged against the disproportionately heavy costs of hospital and nursinghome care. Financing for this hospital insurance would be providedby raising the combined employer-employee payroll tax by %% andby increasing the amount of earnings covered by social security. Theincrease in the earnings base will also raise benefits in future yearsand will help keep the system abreast of the general rise in levels ofearnings. Under the legislation, the cost of hospital benefits for thecurrently aged who are not covered by the social security system wouldbe met from regular appropriations.

Under the unemployment insurance system, $2.9 billion will be paidin benefits in 1965 (including $116 million from administrative budgetfunds for benefits to ex-servicemen and former Federal employees).These benefits will be paid to an estimated weekly average of 1.7million claimants. In many States, the coverage and duration ofunemployment insurance benefits are inadequate. Legislation hastherefore been proposed to extend coverage of the system, increase theduration of benefits, and assure the necessary revenues to financethese improvements. The expenditure estimate for the unemploy-ment trust fund includes $170 million for this legislation in 1965.

The 1965 budget also includes $60 million under proposed legislationto start liquidating, on a scheduled basis, the Federal Government'sobligation to the old-age, survivors, and disability insurance system forcredits for past military service.

Public assistance.—Expenditures of $2.9 billion, including $35million under proposed legislation to augment community work-training programs, are estimated for public assistance in 1965. Theseexpenditures are $138 million less than in 1964 because cash balancesheld by the States will be drawn down. However, the program willbe expanding to help States and communities provide for the basicneeds of more than 7 million persons, including 523,000 persons esti-mated to receive medical assistance for the aged under existing law.Legislation is proposed to improve certain features of the old-ageassistance program.

Other welfare services.—The Federal-State vocational rehabilitationprogram which provides coordinated services to the disabled, willrestore an estimated 133,000 individuals to economic independence in

1965, an increase of 21% over 1963. Federal expenditures for vo-cational rehabilitation will total $125 million in 1965. New legis-lation is proposed to expand vocational rehabilitation services, partic-ularly for the mentally retarded.

In the fiscal year 1965, 16.6 million school children are expected toparticipate in the school lunch program, 5 percent more than in 1964.To meet this growth in the number of participating children and toinitiate assistance on a selective basis to needy schools, grants toStates are estimated to rise by $12 million. New obligational author-ity of $100 million is recommended for 1965 for the special milk pro-gram, the same level as in 1964, to be financed by transferring fundsfrom the permanent appropriation for the removal of surplus agri-cultural commodities. The pilot food stamp program is financedfrom the same permanent appropriation. Legislation has been pro-posed to provide continuing authority for this program.

Legislation has also been proposed to extend beyond June 30, 1964,the authorization for Federal grants to support coordinated communityprojects combating juvenile delinquency and to train workers in thisfield.

EDUCATION

Education is essential to preserving our democratic society andadvancing our national economy. Every individual should have theopportunity to develop his abilities to the fullest, particularly in anage of increasing technology and rapidly growing demand for thehighly trained. This can be achieved only through concerted andcooperative efforts by private individuals and organizations and by alllevels of government. The Federal Government can best play its partthrough programs designed to meet selected, critical needs and tostimulate improvements throughout our educational system.

The 1965 budget provides for an increase of $339 million in expendi-tures for education programs. Most of this increase is for measuresrecommended last year which were recently enacted and for pendingmeasures on which the Congress has not yet completed consideration.Other increases are provided for expanding existing programs, mainlythose of the National Science Foundation, and for a substantiallyenlarged program to aid individuals who require special educationand related services, particularly as part of the attack on poverty.

The new obligational authority recommended for fiscal 1965 totals$3.1 billion, an increase of $1.2 billion over 1964.

Proposed education legislation.—The budget includes new obliga-tional authority of $718 million and estimated expenditures of $118million in 1965 for education programs recommended last year whichare still pending, and for an enlargement of the proposed aid for

The following discussion relates principally to existing programs.

Assistance for elementary and secondary education.—Expendituresfor assistance to schools in federally impacted areas and for defenseeducation programs which support science, mathematics, foreignlanguage instruction, and guidance and counseling programs areestimated at $471 million in fiscal year 1965. The increase of $45million over 1964 for schools in federally impacted areas reflects anincrease of 100,000 students whose parents work or reside on Federalproperties, and a 5% increase in the cost of instruction. As an aid toconsideration of the future of this program, a thorough study will bemade of the impact of Federal activities on the fiscal and economicresources of local communities.

Assistance jor higher education.—A new program to assist in con-struction of classrooms, libraries and laboratories for graduate andundergraduate schools, public junior colleges, and technical instituteswas authorized in Public Law 88-204, approved December 16, 1963.The budget includes a proposed supplemental appropriation toinitiate this program in 1964. About $570 million in grants and loanswill be committed in 1965, with expenditures estimated at $38 million.

New obligational authority of $300 million will be available forcollege housing loans in 1965, the same as in 1964. Estimated ex-penditures in each of these years reflect anticipated sales to privatelenders of $50 million in Government loans previously made. Re-

Under the National Defense Education Act, the number of studentloans is expected to increase by 45% between 1963 and 1965, when anestimated 314,000 loans will be made.

Assistance to science education and basic research.—The NationalScience Foundation continues to perform a vital role in support ofscience education and fundamental research. In keeping with pro-posals made a year ago as part of the Administration's educationprogram, substantial increases are again recommended in the scopeof the programs of the Foundation to develop additional academicinstitutions of scientific excellence and to strengthen science education.

The need for highly trained manpower for engineering, mathematics,and the physical sciences—to which these programs would contributesignificantly—was underscored by the President's Science Advisory

Increases are also provided in1965 for the support of basic research, including funds to proceedwith major procurement for Project Mohole. Total new obligationalauthority for the Foundation will rise from $353 million in 1964 to$488 million in 1965.

Other aids to education.—Expenditures for vocational educationprograms are estimated to increase by $54 million in 1965 to carry outthe provisions of Public Law 88-210, approved December 18, 1963.The act authorizes grants to States for vocational education and con-struction of facilities, and provides Federal support for projects whichwill meet the vocational needs of youths with special handicaps tolearning. The budget includes a supplemental appropriation of $60million for 1964 to initiate programs under the new act, and a furtherincrease of $89 million is recommended for 1965.

Expenditures are also estimated to increase in 1965 for (1) expandedresearch supported by the Office of Education to improve coursematerials, teaching methods, and knowledge about the processes ofeducation; (2) increased construction of educational television facili-ties; and (3) expanded training of teachers for the handicapped, asauthorized in Public Law 88-164.

VETERANS BENEFITS AND SERVICES

Payments to the public in 1965 for veterans programs are estimatedto decrease by $425 million from the current year's level. Majorexpenditure decreases include (1) $275 million in the housing loanprograms, largely reflecting continuing high sales of mortgages heldby the Veterans Administration and proposed sales of certificates ofparticipation in a pool of VA-guaranteed housing loans; (2) $146million in life insurance payments from trust funds, mainly becauseof a speedup of some dividend payments into 1964; and (3) $23 millionin education and training readjustment benefits, principally becausethese benefits under the GI bill for veterans of the Korean conflictare ending.

Service-connected compensation.—Compensation for disability anddeath arising from military service is estimated at $2,120 million in1965. This is a reduction of $6 million from 1964, reflecting a declinein the number of veterans and their survivors receiving benefits.It is estimated that beneficiaries will total 2,354,000 in 1965, which is7,000 less than in 1964. However, average payments per recipientwill increase in 1965, because of a cost-of-living increase in benefits tocertain widows, orphans, and dependent parents provided by legisla-tion enacted last year.

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY FUNCTION 125

Nonser'vice-connected pensions.—Pension expenditures for disabilityand death not connected with military service are expected to rise by$34 million in 1965, as the average number of recipients increases by anestimated 78,000 to a total of 2,106,000. World War I pensionersand their surviving beneficiaries constitute 72% of this number.Pensions for veterans of World War II and the Korean conflict and forsurvivors of veterans will continue to rise as increasing numbers ofveterans reach ages at which rates of disability and mortality mount.

Readjustment benefits.—Expenditures for education and trainingbenefits are estimated to decline in 1965, as these benefits, mainly forveterans of the Korean conflict, will terminate on January 31, 1965.The number of war orphans receiving education and training isexpected to level off at an average of 15,000 per year. In the voca-tional rehabilitation program for the disabled, a decline in wartimetrainees will be offset by the increase in ex-servicemen injured inpeacetime service who are now entitled to vocational rehabilitationbenefits under legislation enacted in fiscal year 1963.

An increase of $102 million in net receipts in 1965 compared with1964 is expected in the direct housing loan program for veterans inrural areas and small towns. This change reflects an anticipatedreduction in loans from 15,000 in 1964 to 10,000 in 1965, plus increasedreceipts from sales of Veterans Administration-held mortgage loans.About $635 million of unobligated funds is estimated to be carriedforward into 1965 for the direct loan program, an amount considerablyin excess of the new loans expected to be made in that year. Accord-ingly, the budget includes a proposal to cancel the $150 million ofnew obligational authority which otherwise would become availablefor 1965 under present law.

Under the veterans loan guarantee program, 175,000 loans areestimated to be guaranteed in 1965, 8% fewer than in 1964. Fore-closures of mortgages financed with guaranteed loans are expectedto continue high, resulting in expenditures for the payment of claimsand for property acquisition only slightly less than in 1964. However,.properties and loans previously acquired by the Veterans Adminis-tration will be sold in increasing volume, resulting in net receipts of$63 million in 1965 compared with net expenditures of $10 million in1964.

In addition, legislation is recommended under which an estimated$100 million in certificates of participation in a pool of previouslyacquired veterans housing loans will be sold to private lenders in orderto broaden private financing of housing loan programs.

Hospitals and medical care.—The 1965 budget includes expendituresof $1,160 million for hospital and medical care services, includingadministration and medical and prosthetic research. Although thetotal is about the same as in 1964, provision is made for continuedimprovement in the quality of medical care, expansion of research,and activation of a new 710-bed hospital in Washington, D.C.

Hospital, domiciliary, and nursing home care will be provided in1965 for an average of 137,622 beneficiaries per day in VeteransAdministration, contract, and State facilities—approximately thesame total as in 1964. There will also be an estimated 6 million visitsby veterans to outpatient clinics operated by the Veterans Admin-istration or to private physicians at the expense of the VeteransAdministration.

Hospital construction.—Expenditures for hospital construction in1965 are estimated to be $85 million. New obligational authority of

$102 million is proposed for the year, representing the fifth step incarrying out the 15-year $1.2 billion hospital program initiated in 1961to modernize the 125,000-bed hospital system. Construction of onenew facility of 1,040 beds in Los Angeles, Calif., and replacement oftwo hospitals containing 1,940 beds in Hines, 111., and San Juan, P.R.,will begin in 1965, and planning will be initiated for one other hospital.Several new modernization projects will also be undertaken, and newobligational authority of $6 million in 1965 is provided for the con-struction and planning of new medical research facilities.

Veterans life insurance trust funds.—The National Service and U.S.Government life insurance trust funds finance over 5 million lifeinsurance policies, primarily for veterans of World Wars I and II.Receipts are chiefly from premiums and interest on investments;expenditures are mainly for death and disability claims and dividends.Trust fund expenditures are estimated to decline by $146 million infiscal year 1965, mainly because $113 million of the $234 million totalregular dividend payments due in that year are being acceleratedinto the winter months of fiscal year 1964.

Other veterans benefits and services.—Insurance and indemnityexpenditures made from administrative budget funds are estimatedto decline by $17 million in 1965 because of the completion of paymentsof special dividends and the gradual phase-out of the servicemen'sindemnity program as installment payments are completed.

Reductions in workloads and continuing improvements in produc-tivity will result in decreased costs for general administrative opera-tions of the Veterans Administration. These reductions will morethan offset the added cost in 1965 mandatory pay increases as providedin the Federal Salary Reform Act of 1962.

INTEREST

Interest payments will continue to rise in 1965, reflecting in part thehigher average level of the outstanding public debt. The higher pay-ments also take into account the effect in 1965 of interest rate increaseswhich have taken place in the last few years to stem the flow of short-term funds abroad. The impact on the budget is occurring graduallyas individual issues mature and are refunded with securities payinghigher interest.

Payments to the public in 1965 for interest, primarily on the publicdebt, will be $2.5 billion less than the estimated administrativebudget expenditures of $11.1 billion. The difference results fromtwo factors: (1) Interest payments to Federal trust funds and agencieson their investments in United States Government securities, esti-mated at $1.9 billion in 1965, are included in administrative budget

Of the $8.6 billion of estimated payments to the public for interest,over $900 million of the interest paid on securities held by the FederalReserve banks will be offset by the customary payments of excessearnings by the Reserve banks to the Treasury, which are included in .miscellaneous budget receipts.

GENERAL GOVERNMENT

Expenditures in 1965 for the general administrative and law enforce-ment activities of the legislative, judicial, and executive branches ofthe Federal Government will amount to an estimated $2.2 billion,the same as in 1964. Increases from the 1964 estimate to improverevenue collection activities and to build, repair and operate Govern-ment buildings will be offset by decreases for other activities.

Central fiscal operations.—Expenditures of the Internal RevenueService are estimated at $592 million in fiscal year 1965, an increaseof $28 million over 1964. This increase will provide the resourcesnecessary to purchase the automatic data processing equipment andpay the related operating personnel required for the 1965 phase inthe establishment of a nationwide master file record of taxpayers.

Legislation is being requested to extend the Renegotiation Actbeyond its present expiration date of June 30, 1964, in order to con-tinue the Renegotiation Board's activities in recovery of excessiveprofits on procurement for the national defense program.

General property and records management.—To continue the Gov-ernment-wide program of providing more modern and efficient facil-ities for Government operations, new obligational authority of $199million is requested for fiscal year 1965 for acquisition of sites, plan-ning, and construction of new buildings by the General ServicesAdministration. This amount is about the same as the appropriationsfor 1964 for these purposes. Progress on construction financed inprior years, however, will cause expenditures for construction to riseby $28 million. Increases are also estimated for operation, repair,and maintenance of facilities. These increases for public buildingsactivities will be partly offset by a reduction in net expenditures for

the Federal Supply Service, primarily because larger advances areexpected to be received from agencies ordering supplies.

Central personnel management.—-Present law requires an appropria-tion from the administrative budget to the civil service retirementand disability trust fund, largely to pay increased annuities to presentretirees, effective January 1, 1963. Enactment of pending legislationwould permit payment of such benefits directly from the retirementfund, thus eliminating $65 million from the administrative budget for1965.

Protective services and alien control.—An increase of $13 million inexpenditures is anticipated in 1965 for the law enforcement and relatedactivities of the Department of Justice. New obligational authorityrecommended for 1965 will increase by $23 million, primarily to com-plete construction of the psychiatric prison hospital in North Carolinaand to build a new National Training School for Boys in West Virginiato replace badly deteriorated facilities in Washington, D.C.

Territories and possessions.—In accordance with legislation enactedlast fall to assist in the rehabilitation of Guam, supplemental appropri-ations of $11 million are recommended for 1964, and an almost equalamount for 1965, for loans and grants, mainly to replace public facili-ties destroyed by the typhoon in November 1962.

The programs for the Trust Territory of the Pacific will be expandedfurther to improve health, educational, and economic conditions ofthis area.

EXPLANATION OF MEANS OF FINANCINGAGENCY ACTIVITIES

TYPES OF FUNDS

Agency activities are financed both through administrative budgetfunds and through trust funds.

The administrative budget covers Federal (Government-owned)funds which are of four types. The general fund is credited withreceipts not earmarked by law, and is charged with expenditurespayable from such revenues and from general borrowing. Specialfunds account for Federal receipts earmarked for specific purposes,other than carrying out a cycle of operations. Public enterprise (re-volving) funds finance a cycle of operations in which expendituresgenerate receipts primarily from the public. Intragovernmental revolv-ing and management funds facilitate financing operations within andbetween Government agencies.

Trust funds are established to account for receipts which are heldin a fiduciary capacity by the Government for use in carrying outspecific purposes and programs. Within the category of trust fundsthere is a special category of trust revolving funds which carry on a cycleof business-type operations.

The budget also includes (in association with the trust funds)deposit funds, which are not used for Government programs but areessentially suspense or agent accounts, and some transactions ofcertain Government-sponsored enterprises. The following discussionis not generally pertinent to them.

NEW OBLIGATIONAL AUTHORITY AND OBLIGATIONS

New obligational authority.—Government agencies are permitted toenter into obligations, requiring either immediate or future paymentof money, only when they have been granted authority to do so bylaw. The amounts thus authorized by Congress are called newobligational authority (NOA). Such authority is related to theobligations expected to be incurred. Some new obligational authorityis granted for 1 fiscal year; some is for a longer period or is providedwithout a time limit on its use. In some cases NOA is requestedand granted to finance a project fully (especially construction, re-search, or procurement) at the time it starts, allowing the obligationsto be spread over 2 or more years.

New obligational authority usually takes the form of appropriationswhich permit obligations to be incurred and expenditures to be made.

146

Page 144: bus_1965

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY AGENCY 147

Some is in the form of contract authorizations which permit obligations,but require an appropriation "to liquidate" in order to permit ex-penditures in payment of the obligations. Any part of NOA whichis not used for obligations during the period for which it is madeavailable by the Congress expires, and thus cannot be used at a latertime. However, reappropriations and reauthorizations are congres-sional actions to continue availability of unused balances whichwould otherwise expire. There are also authorizations to expend fromdebt receipts; such NOA permits the use of borrowed money to incurobligations and make expenditures. Authority to use Treasuryborrowing is an authorization to expend from public debt receipts;authority to borrow directly from private enterprise, granted only tocertain Government corporations, is called an authorization to expendfrom corporate debt receipts.

Most new obligational authority of administrative budget fundsis granted year by year (current authorizations). Some new obliga-tional authority in the administrative budget and most NOA in thetrust funds permit additional sums to become available from time totime without further action by the Congress (permanent authori-zations) .

The amount of new obligational authority is usually named specifi-cally in the act of Congress which makes it available (definite author-izations), but in a few cases the amount is left indefinite to be de-termined by subsequent circumstances (indefinite authorizations); anexample is the appropriation for interest on the public debt.

Obligations incurred.—Following the enactment of new obligationalauthority, obligations are incurred by Government agencies. Suchobligations include the currently accruing liabilities for salaries andwages, certain contractual services, and interest; entering into con-tracts for equipment, construction, and land; approval of agreementsto make loans; and other commitments requiring the payment ofmoney.

EXPENDITURES AND BALANCES

Expenditures.—Obligations are liquidated by the issuance of checks,disbursement of cash, the maturing of interest coupons in the case ofsome bonds, and, in a few special cases, by issuance of bonds or notes(or increases in the redemption value of bonds outstanding) in lieu ofchecks. Retirement of debt and purchase of the Government's ownsecurities are not counted as expenditures (or as obligations incurred).

Expenditures during any fiscal year may be payments of obligationsincurred in prior years or in the same year. The expenditures there-fore flow in part from balances of prior year NOA and in part fromNOA provided for the year in which the money is spent.

For three types of funds—public enterprise, intragovernmental, andtrust revolving funds—expenditures are stated net of receipts. If

Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

Page 145: bus_1965

1 4 8 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1961

receipts exceed expenditures the difference shows as a minus entry inthe expenditure tables. Moneys received from the issuance of debtinstruments or the sale of the Government's own securities are notcounted as receipts or netted against expenditures.

Expenditures of the individual accounts and funds include variouspayments to other accounts and funds. For example, a number ofpublic enterprise funds pay, to the general fund, interest on the capitalthey have received from the Government. Interfund transactions ofthis type within the administrative budget are deducted at the end ofthe expenditure tables (and identical deductions are made at the endof the receipt tables). Similar interfund deduc:ions are made in thetrust fund tables for those payments made by one trust fund to•another.

Balances.—Not all of the obligational authority enacted for a fiscalyear is paid out in the same year. In the case of salaries and wages,only 2 to 3 weeks elapse between the time of obligation and the timeof expenditure. On the other hand, in the case of major procure-ment and construction, several years may elapse. Amounts whichhave been obligated are always carried forward to cover the subsequentexpenditure in payment of such obligations.

Most appropriations for current operations are made available forobligation only within the year (1-year appropriations). Some arefor a specified longer period (multiple-year appropriations). Some,including most of those for construction, some for research, and nearlyall trust fund appropriations are made available by Congress untilexpended (no-year appropriations), and remain available for obligationuntil objectives have been completed.

Therefore, a change in the amount of new obligational authorityfor a given year does not necessarily change either the obligationsincurred or the budget expenditures in that same year by an equalamount. A change in new obligational authority in any one yearmay spread its effect over obligations for 2 or more years and overexpenditures for even a longer period.

ESTIMATES FOR 1964 AND 1965

Data for 1964.—Congress has already acted on appropriations andother new obligational authority for fiscal year 1964, but additionalsupplemental amounts are estimated to be required in certain cases.Where the word "enacted" is used in the budget in reference to 1964,as in tables 4 and 5, the amounts are those already voted by Congress(including the amounts likely to be available in the case of appro-priations made in an indefinite amount) or the expenditures there-under, unless otherwise indicated. Where the word "estimate" isused, the amounts include both those which are enacted and neededsupple mentals, including some pending before the Congress. Certain

Page 146: bus_1965

THE FEDERAL PROGRAM BY AGENCY 149

standard footnotes are used in the following table to distinguish thestatus of pending or proposed items for 1964 in this part of the budget.

Data for 1965.—This budget is complete as to the estimates for1965 as now foreseen. The budget appendix generally includes theproposed appropriation language for the various items which areidentified in the budget. However, in some instances—mainly casesof proposed new legislation—estimates are included in the budget,but formal transmittal of the proposed text of the appropriationlanguage (or other proposal) will be made later. In certain tables,these items for later transmittal and expenditures therefrom areidentified in separate columns, or by special footnotes, as in the follow-ing table. In tables where there is no such specific identification, theestimate for 1965 is comprehensive, whether or not the necessaryappropriation language is formally transmitted at this time.

Changes from 1964 to 1965.—The table which follows gives data for1963, 1964, and 1965, with figures on increases or decreases of 1965compared with 1964. These changes include certain mandatory costchanges as well as proposals of the President with respect to programs.The 1965 estimates provide the full year's cost of the pay increaseseffective in January 1964, under the Federal Salary Reform Act of1962, for which only a half-year's cost was provided in fiscal year 1964.

Special allowances.—It is certain that additional needs, not nowknown, will arise during the remainder of 1964 and 1965, and supple-mental proposals will be transmitted to Congress when required tofinance them. Congress will also enact legislation which is not speci-fically provided for in the budget, either because it is not proposed bythe President, or because its cost in either of the 2 years is relativelysmall. Furthermore, some legislative proposals may involve all (asfor civilian comparability pay adjustments), or a number of agencies(as for the poverty program for 1965). In such cases it is not feasibleto show individual items under the agencies concerned. Lump-sumallowances are included in the summary tables of the budget to coversuch items.

Annexed budgets.—The expenditures and reveaues of seven self-supporting Government agencies or programs have heretofore beenomitted from the budget documents, except that partial figures onthree of them have been included in the trust fund and consolidatedcash totals (but with no supporting data in the appendix). Withoutmaking any changes in the totals, a memorandum section now coversthese activities at the end of part 5, and some details on them appearin the appendix. Like the budgets for the legislative branch and thejudiciary, the annexed budgets have not been reviewed by the Presi-dent but are included in the amounts submitted by the agencies(except for two cases, which are noted, where Bureau of the Budgetestimates are used because no agency estimates were submitted).

ANALYSIS OF NEW OBLIGATIONAL AUTHORITY AND EXPENDITURES BY AGENCY (in thousands of dollars)

This tabulation shows, for each appropriation and fund account, among the administrative budget funds, information on new obligational authority (called NOA herein)and expenditures. It includes appropriation requests for 1964 based on the amounts recommended by the President which are pending before the Congress and onwhich no or partial congressional action has been taken. Such requests are identified by footnote (c). Explanatory sentences relate primarily to NOA, and usuallyto increases or decreases for 1965. Functional code numbers are cross references to the lines in table 14, (pages 132 to 144) where the figures are summarized. TheNOA in this tabulation takes account of certain transfers between appropriations which are set forth in the Budget Appendix. Congressional action in the appropria-tion process occasionally is in the form of a limitation on the use of a trust fund or other fund, or an appropriation to liquidate contract authorizations; such items whichdo not involve NOA are also included here in parentheses, but are not added into the totals. NOA items in the administrative budget are current authorizations exceptwhere otherwise indicated. A final section of this tabulation shows similar information on the trust funds. Smaller funds are grouped in that section. Accounts ap-pearing there are permanent authorizations unless otherwise noted.

Estimate will permit keeping pace with Alliance efforts by the countriesof Latin America. Loans appear under "Loan and guarantee pro-grams."

This program is expected to be part of expanded arrangements to beproposed for the Inter-American Development Bank. A small part of1964 appropriation will be used to finance the activities of the Organi-zation of American States related to the Alliance for Progress.

Estimate reflects pay increases, expanded training programs, and otheritems for administration of the program.

Provision is made for mandatory cost rises and more adequate provi-sion for nonsalary expenses.

Estimate provides for the U.S. share in accelerating joint Alliance forProgress effort. The U.S. also supports Latin American developmentthrough (a) use of agricultural surplus under the Food for Peace pro-gram, (b) Alliance development grants, (c) the facilities of the Export-Import Bank and the Peace Corps, and (d) subscriptions to the Inter-American Development Bank, all shown elsewhere.

Estimate reflects expanded requirements for overseas loan assistancemainly in the Near East and South Asia.

(The Fund ceased existence as a corporate entity in 1962, except forliquidation of loan commitments.)

Guarantees totaling $725 million are expected to be issued. Additionalguarantee authorization of $220 million will be requested to coverfuture guarantee requirements.

Supplemental in 1964 is for increased workload and for salary reclassifi-cation of meat inspectors. Decreases in 1965 contemplate (a) enact-ment of legislation to finance meat inspection on a self-supporting feebasis, (b) closing nonessential research stations, and (c) slowing fireant eradication. These are partly offset by increases including staffingnew laboratories, pesticide research and regulation, research construc-tion, pay costs, meat and quarantine inspection.

Increase expands use of excess foreign currencies for agricultural andforestry research in the economic, biological, and physical sciences.

(Activities were transferred to Cooperative State Research Service.)

Decrease in the direct appropriation and the increase in the permanentappropriation (transferred from "Removal of surplus agriculturalcommodities"), reflect a shift in financing in 1965.

Increase provides for growth in the program and includes $2 million foraid to needy schools.

An increase in license fee rates effective Jan. 1, 1963, allows improvedadministration of the license system.

3 0 % of certain customs receipts is available to finance this and relatedFederal programs. Reduction reflects transfer to finance special milkprogram in 1965, partly offset by slight increase in receipts.

These funds available to finance the pilot food stamp program in 1965provide for some expansion.

Increase is largely for expanded market development work abroad in bothdollar and soft currency areas, and for mandatory salary reform costs.

There are adequate carryover balances of excess foreign currencies forthis account.

Estimate will continue licensing, auditing, supervisory and investigativeactivities, and provide for mandatory salary reform costs.

Supplemental in 1964 is to finance the administrative expenses of thefeed grain program enacted after submission of the 1964 budget.Decrease results from savings to be realized from reducing the per-centage of farms measured under wheat and feed-grain programs.

Supplemental in 1964 is for payments resulting from unanticipated in-creases in production. Increase in 1965 assumes payments to sugarproducers under existing law for increased production.

NOA in 1965 is for cost-sharing payments to farmers authorized in 1964;1965 proposal is $120 million (excluding administration), to beappropriated in 1966.

Supplemental in 1964 expands the program to shift cropland to less in-tensive usage. Proposed legislation would provide for $50 millionannually. Supplemental in 1965 would continue program at the new1964 level.

(Increase is for mandatory salary reform costs and expansion of thecrop insurance program in 1964.)

NOA of $428 million, plus balance from previous years, will providefor estimated loan commitments of $300 million for electrificationand $85 million for telephone and for $65 million reserve. Proposedlegislation permits loan receipts to be used to reduce expenditures in1964, and both NOA and expenditures in 1965.

Increase provides for additional staff and for mandatory salary reformcosts, partly offset by decrease from shift in financing of activitiesto the Office of Inspector General.

(Existing funds are sufficient for enlargement and development loans andrepair and improvement grants through 1965.)

NOA provided in 1963 was for a new program of housing loans to elderlyindividuals in rural areas. NOA provided in 1964 is for rural housingloans to other than the elderly. Expenditures (including use ofbalances of prior NOA) will decline in 1965 as the proposed loan insur-ance program becomes operative.

Lease costs of the national match site will be lower in 1965.

Additional lump-sum settlements and higher costs of foreign claimsare expected.

This account provides the Secretary of Defense with funds to meetemergencies and extraordinary expenses.

Caseload is expected to continue at about the 1963 level of 834.

(Transferred to "Operation and maintenance, Air Force." Ex-penditures are from 1962 and prior appropriations.)

Program is directed at filling combat essential equipment allowancesfor the reorganized Army division (ROAD) active and reserveforce, and providing inventories adequate for sustained combatoperations. Modernization of older materiel is continued. De-crease reflects reduced procurement of materiel as stocks approachinventory objectives.

Decrease results mainly from (a) major reprograming of prior yearfunds for 1965 needs; (b) decline in aircraft modifications withcompletion of the heavy reconnaissance (A-5C) program, and(c) drop in procurement of Polaris missiles upon attainment ofimproved inventory position.

The program will continue procurement of conventional ordnanceand intelligence, warning, communications and control systems,primarily to improve air defense and conventional war capabilities.Principal decreases are in procurement of electronics, telecom-munications, and automatic data processing equipment forcommunications and intelligence programs.

Increase reflects higher procurement of electronic equipment by theDefense Communication Agency and by other departmentwideactivities.

(Program needs are now provided in other appropriations above.)

Increase is for additional work in development of advanced anti-ballistic missile defense, and continued emphasis on improvedweaponry and equipment for limited and remote area warfare.

Increases for antisubmarine warfare development are more thanoffset by phasing down improvement work on the Polaris missile.

Decrease reflects the phaseout of research and development onmajor missile and aircraft programs and the reorientation of themilitary space program. These developments more than offsetnew programs to be initiated.

Increase is primarily to attain readiness posture for nuclear weaponseffects tests and for accelerated development of nuclear testdetection techniques as safeguards under the test ban treaty.

Provides for fewer new research grants than in 1964, and reduces directoperations relating to research, training, and technical services.

Pending supplemental in 1964 is for comprehensive State planning grantsfor a coordinated approach to action on mental retardation. Decreasein formula grants to States and in research grants in 1965 is partly off-set by increases to support new projects for cancer detection, and im-proved community control and training programs for neurologicaland sensory diseases, including mental retardation.

Increase will expand hepatitis research, epidemic and medical trainingaids, improvement of State medical laboratories, and will continuethe program to eradicate the yellow fever mosquito.

Estimate reflects deemphasis of general health grants and the expira-tion of authority for the public health traineeship program, but in-creases by $1 million for the migrant agricultural workers healthprogram.

Elimination of the State formula grant will allow concentration of in-creased project grants in areas of greatest TB prevalence.

(Increase is mainly for strengthening management.)

(Increase provides for additional procurement of experimental mail han-dling equipment, including an automatic address reader and computermemory for existing letter sorters to mechanize the processing of ZIP-coded and other typewritten mail.)

(Increase is due to growth in mail volume (2.8%) and delivery stops(3.4%), partly offset by savings estimated to result from improvedmanagement and presorting of ZIP-coded mail by large-volumemailers.)

(Decrease results from savings in transportation costs, partly offset byincreased costs due to growth in mail volume.)

(Increase is due principally to added rental costs for additional space tohandle an increasing mail volume.)

(Decrease is due to deferral of building extension and modernizationprojects until current backlogs are reduced, partly offset by increases inprocurement of mechanical equipment for new and existing postoffices.)

Estimate provides for administrative costs of the low-income housingdemonstration program. Additional contract authorization isproposed in 1964 to continue grants for testing and demonstrationof new and improved methods of housing low-income families.

The Housing Act of 1961 authorized $300 million each in 1962-65 forloans financing student housing and related facilities.

Appropriations in 1963 were for mass transportation loans. Ex-penditures include substantial loans for other facilities, financedfrom 1961 NOA. Increased administrative costs result fromhigher levels of activity.

Proposed 1964 supplemental is to provide funds for interest-freeadvances totaling $15 million, financed in part by repayments andother available funds. In 1965, approvals total $24 million.

(Decreased administrative costs result from reduced size of invest-ments to be managed and liquidated.)

New legislative authority in 1964 will provide funds for 1965 and1966. Accelerating progress under existing contracts requireshigher payments and higher liquidating appropriation.

(Repayments and sales of mortgages will continue to exceed risingexpenses of advance preparations to sell properties at LosAlamos, N. Mex.)

Appropriations in 1965 and balances brought forward from 1964will allow funds to be reserved for loans amounting to $100million in 1965, compared to $75 million in 1964. Increased1965 administrative costs result from higher program level.

(The trust fund will purchase from Treasury in 1964 the holdingsof preferred stock not currently needed as the basis for financingnew mortgage purchases.)

(Expenditures will rise in 1965 primarily because of increasingpurchases of below-market-interest-rate mortgages on rentalhousing for moderate-income families. New commitments formortgage purchases will increase by $155 million to $500 million.Mortgage sales are estimated at $350 million (par) in both1964 and 1965.)

(Acquisitions of mortgages from the FHA for administration andliquidation will increase by $155 million (par), but sales of $170million (par) and mortgage repayments will continue to producenet receipts for the fund.)

(Legislation is proposed to authorize the sale of participations inpools of mortgages held by FNMA.)

Decrease results from increased use of private rather than FHAfinancing of resales of properties acquired as a result of defaultson insured mortgages, and from transfer of $250 million (par) inmortgages to FNMA for consolidated administration and liquida-tion. Property acquisitions will continue to rise but are expectedto be matched by resales in 1965. Mortgage insurance outstand-ing is estimated at $48.4 billion by the end of 1965. Increasedapplication levels, insurance-in-force, and claims activities willrequire increased administrative support and operating expenses.

Increase primarily reflects approximately 27,000 additional unitsreceiving contributions for the first time under contracts previ-ously executed.

Administrative expenses rise with the heavier management work-load.

(Increase will cover inspection of increased construction activityand permit acceleration of repair and maintenance at 3 federallyowned and operated projects.)

The 1964 supplemental is to regain in part the slippage in schedulesin the manned lunar landing program resulting from reductionsin the 1964 appropriations. The increase in 1965 is for continu-ing manned space flight programs required for achieving a mannedlunar landing by the end of the decade. Effort on meteorologicaland communications satellites will continue at a slightly lowerlevel than in 1964. Effort will continue on unmanned investiga-tions of the lunar andfplanetary environments. Aeronauticsresearch will continue in support of civil and military require-ments with increased emphasis in the supersonic transport pro-gram. Funding is also included for supporting research and forthe operation of worldwide tracking and data acquisition net-works to meet increased flight program requirements.

Facilities required for the manned lunar landing program have beenlargely funded in prior years. The major portion of the 1965funds is to provide further facilities for the manned space flightprogram, including the Saturn V launch complex and supportingfacilities.

Additional amount provides for heavier workload at NASA installa-tions to support manned space flight and other programs.

Reduction reflects declining workloads, increased productivity andtransfers of costs of tort claim settlements and burial flags to the Com-pensation and pensions appropriation. Decreases are offset in part bymandatory salary reform costs.

Increase provides for mandatory salary reform costs.

Increase provides for program growth consistent with 10-year plannedobjective.

Supplemental in 1964 is for wage board increases. The 1965 estimateprovides for mandatory salary reform costs; activation of 2,000 nurs-ing home beds; activation of the new Washington, D.C., hospital;completing activation of a new restoration center at East Orange,N.J.; increased maintenance and repair requirements; establishing 5new day care centers; increased utilization of utilities, drugs andmedical supplies; and increases in medical and dental fees for home-town care.

Increases include new cost-of-living increases in dependency and in-demnity payments to widows, parents, and children, offset mainly bydecreases due to deaths of World War I and World War II veteransand transfers to pension rolls.

Increase arises mainly in caseloads among World War II and Koreanconflict veterans and among survivors of veterans of World War I andWorld War II.

Increase includes tort claims and burial flags (previously programedunder "General operating expenses") and subsistence allowance todisabled peacetime ex-servicemen undergoing vocational rehabilita-tion.

Reduced requirements result primarily from the phasing out of Koreanconflict readjustment trainees by Jan. 31, 1965, as provided by law.

Decreases result principally from phaseout of indemnities paid to sur-vivors of veterans and servicemen deceased during the Korean conflict.Permanent NOA is premium receipts on policies issued to certain dis-abled veterans of World War II.

Estimate is for medical care and treatment of daily average of 180Philippine Commonwealth Army veterans.

Supplemental in 1964 is for alterations of existing hospitals to provide2,000 nursing home beds. Proposal for 1965 is the fifth-year incre-ment of a 15-year $1,200 million modernization program. Includes$6.4 million for construction and planning research facilities.

Supplemental in 1964 is for construction of a recently authorized me-morial on Corregidor to those who fought in the Pacific area in WorldWar II.

(Receipts of $49 million from canteen sales to hospital patients andstaff approximately offset expenses.)

Loans decrease as World War II veterans entitlement runs out. Saleof loans and other unobligated balances eliminate need for borrow-ings from the Treasury. Permanent NOA of $150 million whichwould otherwise become available for 1965 is proposed for cancellation.

(Receipts, primarily from planned sale of mortgage notes, are expectedto more than offset expenditures.)

(Legislation is proposed to authorize the sale of participations in pooledmortgage loans.)

Mandatory salary reform costs are partly offset by decreases resultingfrom productivity improvement. Provision is also made for purchaseof a computer in lieu of rental.

Increase in 1965 results from expanded workload and mandatory salaryreform costs.

Panama Canal construction annuitants are estimated to drop from1,518 to 1,347; Lighthouse Service widows from 425 to 423.

On June 30, 1963, 116 thousand eligibles were enrolled; increases to 157thousand in 1964 and to 201 thousand in 1965 are expected.

(Increase will provide for additional eligibility determinations and man-datory salary reform costs.)

Increase includes amount to pay mandatory contributions unpaid in1964.

(Administrative expense will decrease with drop in number of estimatedparticipants from 236 to 232 thousand.)

Estimate is to pay costs of additional benefits granted in 1963. Pendinglegislation to provide permanent financing would eliminate the needfor an appropriation in 1965.

(Increased participation under regular insurance program is partlyoffset by decrease in beneficial association members.)

(Decrease in expenditures reflects decreases in investigations in processthat will rot be completed by the end of 1965.)

Estimate provides for mandatory salary reform costs, increased travelcosts, consultant services, and equipment.

Estimate will continue program at about 1964 level.

In addition to receipts shown, $126 thousand were un-appropriated at year end, but required no congressional action. Re-ceipts in 1963 and 1964 included repayments of advances to Statesfor temporary extended unemployment benefits. Decrease in 1965receipts reflects the completion of repayments in 1964.

THREE MEASURES OF FEDERAL FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS

Data on Government financial transactions are used for manypurposes. No single set of accounts can serve all purposes equallywell. As a result, various budget concepts and forms have been de-veloped to meet different needs. The three measures of Federalreceipts and expenditures most commonly used are: (1) the adminis-trative budget, (2) the consolidated cash statement of Federal transac-tions, and (3) the Federal sector of the national income accounts.A reconciliation of these three measures is presented in table A-l.

ADMINISTRATIVE BUDGET

The administrative budget covers receipts and expenditures offunds owned by the Federal Government—the general fund, specialfunds, public enterprise funds, and intragovernmental revolving andmanagement funds. Although budget documents placed before theCongress have regularly included both federally owned funds andfunds held in trust by the Government, only the former have beentraditionally used to calculate budget totals.

For many years, the administrative budget served as the principalfinancial plan for conducting the affairs of Government. It repre-sented a focal point for management and decisionmaking with respectto Government activities. As long as almost all Federal financialtransactions were carried out with federally owned funds, the ad-ministrative budget provided adequate coverage.

In recent years, however, trust fund operations have grown rapidly.Several major parts of the Government's program are now carriedout through trust funds, particularly those for labor, welfare, andhighway activities. This means that the flow of financial transactionsbetween the Federal Government and the public is considerablylarger than is indicated by the administrative budget.

CONSOLIDATED CASH STATEMENT

The consolidated cash statement of Federal receipts and paymentsis designed to show the total flow of financial transactions (excludingborrowing) between the Federal Government and the public. It ismore comprehensive and complete than the administrative budgetin that it includes the receipts and expenditures of trust funds aswell as funds wholly owned by the Federal Government. Since theconsolidated cash statement measures the Government's flow ofcash to and from the public, intragovernmental transactions (trans-actions between budget and trust fund accounts) are excluded andpayments are put on a checks-paid basis. The consolidated cashstatement is useful for determining Government financing and netborrowing requirements and for analyzing the financial impact of theGovernment's overall activities.

330 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

FEDERAL SECTOR OF THE NATIONAL INCOME ACCOUNTS

The Federal sector of the national income and product accounts isdesigned to provide a measure of the direct impact of Federal fiscalactivity on the Nation's current flow of income and output.

Like the consolidated cash statement, the Federal sector account ismore comprehensive than the administrative budget in that it in-cludes most trust fund transactions. However, in contrast both tothe consolidated cash statement and the administrative budget, onlythose receipts and expenditures which directly affect the current flowof income and output are recorded. Therefore, the Federal sector ofthe income and product accounts excludes transactions involvingpurely financial claims and exchanges of secondhand or existingassets; such transactions represent neither the production of currentoutput nor incomes earned in production, even though they have in-direct effects on the level or composition of economic activity.

Further, both the administrative budget and consolidated cashstatement count business tax receipts, like other receipts, as theyare collected. In contrast, the Federal sector account records somebusiness tax receipts, particularly corporate income taxes, as theyaccrue, on the grounds that the main economic impact of these taxesis more closely associated with the accrual of liabilities than withactual cash collections. Also, the Federal sector records most pur-chases of goods and services when delivery is made, while the admin-istrative budget and consolidated cash statement count expendituresat the time of payment.

RELATIONSHIP OF CONSOLIDATED CASH STATEMENT TO THEADMINISTRATIVE BUDGET

Certain adjustments are needed to derive the consolidated cashstatement from administrative budget totals, as summarized intable A-l.

1. Trust funds.—In addition to administrative budget receipts andexpenditures, the consolidated cash statement covers the financialtransactions of Federal trust funds (including Government-sponsoredenterprises). Accordingly, excise taxes that support the highway trustfund, employment taxes, deposits by States for unemployment insur-ance, veterans life insurance premiums, and other trust fund receiptsare included along with the corresponding trust fund disbursements.

2. Intragovernmental transactions.—Administrative budget receiptsinclude amounts paid into the Treasury by trust funds. (Theseamounts are also reported as trust fund expenditures.) Similarly,there are trust fund receipts, such as interest on trust fund holdingsof U.S. securities, which are also reported as administrative budgetexpenditures. In consolidating the transactions of budget and trustfunds, these intragovernmental transactions are eliminated from thecombined receipts and expenditures since no exchange of cash withthe public is involved in these operations.

3. Exercise oj monetary authority.—These receipts are now mostlyfrom seigniorage; that is, they represent the difference between thecost of the metal and minting of coins, on the one hand, and the actualvalue of the coins as money on the other. Seigniorage is included inadministrative budget receipts, but is not a cash receipt from thepublic.

4. Debt issuance in lieu oj checks.—In a few cases, Governmentexpenditures are made by issuing bonds or notes, or increasing thevalue of bonds outstanding in lieu of issuing checks. Such transac-tions are recorded in the administrative budget as expenditureswhen the debt is thus increased, even though no cash outflow takesplace until the debt instrument is redeemed.

For example, the administrative budget records interest on savingsbonds when it accrues (and is added to the redemption value currentlypayable) rather than when it is actually paid. In computing cashpayments to the public, interest payments are included only when thebonds are cashed. Therefore, an adjustment is made for the differencebetween the amount of interest accrued and the amount paid.

A second example involves transactions in special notes used to paycertain U.S. Government obligations. The Government has paid aportion of its subscriptions to the International Monetary Fund, theInternational Development Association, and the Inter-American De-velopment Bank in non-interest-bearing notes. The notes are con-sidered administrative budget expenditures and become part of thepublic debt when they are issued. However, they are not counted asa payment to the public until they are redeemed for cash, at whichtime they cease to be part of the public debt. Conversely, when theinstitutions return cash to the Treasury in exchange for notes, pay-ments to the public are reduced by the amount of the cash receiptsand a corresponding increase in the public debt takes place.

5. Changes in outstanding checks.—Administrative budget and trustfund expenditures are recorded at the time checks are issued. Toreflect more accurately the point in time at which cash is actually inthe hands of the public, an adjustment is made to place expenditureson a checks-paid basis.

FEDERAL SECTOR ACCOUNTS—DEFINITIONS AND RELATIONSHIP TOOTHER MEASURES

The national income accounts, as developed and prepared by theDepartment of Commerce's Office of Business Economics, is a dual-entry accounting system for making estimates of the current pro-ductive activity of U.S. residents.1 The term "residents" is definedto include the Federal Government as well as State and local govern-ments, corporations incorporated under U.S. laws (but not theirforeign branches or subsidiaries) ? individuals employed in the UnitedStates proper, and U.S. citizens employed by the Federal Govern-ment abroad (civilian as well as military). "Nonresidents" includegovernments, individuals (other than employees of the Federal Gov-ernment), and businesses in foreign countries, as well as in PuertoRico, the Virgin Islands, and other U.S. possessions.

1 The accounts are discussed in detail in the Department of Commerce's National Income, 1954edition, pp. 143-149, and U.S. Income and Output, 1958 edition, pp. 53-57, and 99-101. Each is a"Supplement to the Survey of Current Business." Current estimates on a quarterly and an annualbasis are provided in the Survey of Current Business and in the Economic Indicators.

SPECIAL ANALYSES 3 3 3

The output side of the national income accounts depicts the totalmarket value of the currently produced output of goods and services,classified by type of expenditures: consumer expenditures; grossprivate domestic investment in new construction, equipment, andinventories; Federal, State, and local government purchases of goodsand services; and net exports. The total, obtained by summing theseitems, is called the gross national product (GNP).

The total value of the gross national product is balanced by an equalamount of gross income earned in producing the output.2 The incomeside of the accounts portrays this total, classified by type of income; forexample, wages and salaries, proprietors' income, corporate profits,rent, and net interest and certain other costs of production, such asdepreciation and indirect business taxes. The income accounts alsoprovide additional data showing various transfers of income from onesector to another, such as business gifts to nonprofit institutions andsocial security benefits from the Government.

It should be pointed out that national income data, although basedon accounting statements of economic units, are statistical aggregatesrather than accounting totals in the ordinary sense.

Federal receipts.—Federal receipts on a national income basis areclassified into the following four categories: (1) personal tax and nontaxreceipts, (2) corporate profits tax accruals, (3) indirect business taxand nontax accruals, and (4) receipts from contributions for socialinsurance. Personal tax and nontax receipts consist mostly of indi-vidual income taxes, estate and gift taxes, fines, penalties, and chargesfor Government services. Corporate profits tax accruals representthe Federal tax liability incurred and accrued by resident corporationson their corporate earnings during the specified year or period.Federal corporation income tax collections do not necessarily concidewith—and usually lag—accruals. Indirect business tax and nontaxaccruals consist primarily of excise taxes, customs duties, Federalreceipts from rent and royalties, and other charges to business.Receipts from contributions for social insurance are composed chieflyof employment taxes, contributions to the retirement funds forGovernment employees, and deposits by the States to the unemploy-ment trust fund.

Federal expenditures.—Federal expenditures on a national incomebasis are classified in the following categories: (1) Purchases of goodsand services, (2) transfer payments, (3) grants-in-aid to State andlocal governments, (4) net interest paid, and (5) subsidies less currentsurplus of Government enterprises. The definitions of the categorieshave been developed by the Department of Commerce consistentwith the framework of accounts covering the Nation's total economicactivity.

1. Purchase of goods and services.—These purchases represent thevalue of the Nation's currently produced output bought directly bythe Federal Government. They are reported in the national incomeaccounts net of Government sales.

Purchases include the pay of active military and civilian employeesof the Federal Government, employer contributions to retirement,insurance and other benefits for Federal employees, outlays on new

2 "Gross income" includes capital consumption allowances and certain charges against production.

equipment and supplies for defense and other programs, new construc-tion, research and development contracts with corporations organizedfor profit, expenditures for the purchase of commodities (even if thecommodities are then donated or transferred, domestically or abroad),and generally, the administrative expenses of Government programs.

2. Transfer payments.—Transfer payments consist of expendituresby the Federal Government for which no current output or serviceshave been rendered; in other words, they are payments to certainrecipients for which no contribution to national production is madeduring the time period under consideration. There are two importantcriteria which must be met by an expenditure classified as a transferpayment: (a) the recipient must be an individual, an institution notorganized for profitmaking purposes (a "not-for-profit" institution)or a nonresident (for example, a foreign government), and (b) theexpenditure must also be in monetary form and not in commodities.

Examples of transfer payments are: veterans compensation, pen-sions, and benefits; retired pay to Federal civilian or military per-sonnel; unemployment benefits; and old-age, survivors, and disabilityinsurance; cash gifts and contributions to nonresidents; nonrepayableoutlays for scholarships and fellowships; and research and develop-ment expenditures for contracts let to private individuals. Althoughsuch transfer payments do not directly enter GNP calculations, theydo enter into the income stream and have an impact on national out-put; they are reflected in the GNP in another sector of the accountswhen respent by the recipients.

For national income purposes, net interest paid to nonresidents isconsidered a transfer payment. All other transactions involving in-terest expenditures and receipts (that is, to and from residents) arereported in the net interest paid category.

3. Grants-in-aid to State and local governments.—Grants, for pur-poses of the national income accounts, are Federal payments to Stateand local governments (other than for interest on the public debt),including State and local educational institutions. Included in grantsare almost all of the grants-in-aid and the shared revenues in SpecialAnalysis I of the budget, except (a) outlays to nonprofit and privatelyowned hospitals, (b) outlays-in-kind such as commodities distributedto State and local governments, and (c) payments to Puerto Rico, theVirgin Islands, and other possessions. In addition, the national in-come accounts record as grants research and development outlays forcontracts to public educational institutions. Like transfer paymentsand net interest paid, Federal grants-in-aid are counted in the GNPwhen respent by recipients—in this case, as purchases by State andlocal governments.

4. Net interest paid.—Net interest paid consists of the interestoutlays to residents minus the interest received from this source.

5. Subsidies less current surplus of Government enterprises.—Thiscategory consists of two elements which are consolidated for analyticaland statistical reasons: (a) subsidy payments to (resident) businesses,and (b) the "current surplus" (or deficit as the case may be) of Govern-ment enterprises.

(a) In principle a Government expenditure becomes a subsidy whenit enables a producer to sell goods and services below the cost-price

Page 331: bus_1965

SPECIAL ANALYSES 335

relationship determined by market forces or when it is a paymentmade to curtail production. By definition, therefore, subsidies aremade only to businesses organized for profitmaking purposes (in-cluding farms). Examples of subsidies are Government paymentsto farmers for land retirement, certain outlays for the export of surplusagricultural commodities by business, payments to air carriers, andthe operating differential subsidy of the Maritime Administration.

(b) Government enterprise is the term applied to those functionsof the Government (usually appearing in the budget as public enter-prise revolving funds) whose operating costs are to a great extentcovered by the sale of goods and services to the public, as opposedto being financed by tax receipts. In short, Government enterprisesconduct operations which are of a commercial nature. Because ofthis, part of their operations are reported in the business sector ofthe national income accounts and part in the Federal sector. TheFederal sector covers the difference between sales and operatingcosts, interest expenses, and capital formation.

Relationship to the consolidated cash statement.—There area number of important differences between the Federal sector accountand the consolidated cash statement. These are set forth in table A-l.

1. Coverage.—With respect to coverage, the Federal Governmentpart of the income and product accounts excludes the revenues andexpenditures of the District of Columbia, which are classified by theDepartment of Commerce in the State and local government sector.

2. Netting and consolidation.—The Federal sector account recordsboth interest paid by the Government and Government purchases ona net basis. Accordingly, interest received by the Government isexcluded from receipts and subtracted from Federal interest pay-ments. Similarly, receipts from sales of Government products aresubtracted from Government purchases. Neither adjustment influ-ences the surplus or deficit, for in effect, both receipts and expendituresare decreased by the same amount.

Adjustments for consolidation are needed to reflect in the incomeand product account a few transactions such as employer and em-ployee contributions to Federal employees' retirement funds. Al-though these contributions are considered to be part of the totalcompensation of Government employees in the national incomeaccounts, they are excluded from the consolidated cash statement asan intragovernmental transaction. Again, the deficit or surplus isunaffected by the adjustment, since total receipts and expendituresare both increased by the same amount.

3. Timing.—Business taxes are recorded in the national incomeaccounts as they are accrued by the private sector, rather than whenthey are collected by the Government. The principal timing adjust-ments for expenditures are: (a) The Federal sector account recordsFederal purchases in terms of the delivery of goods and services to theGovernment, whereas cash payments for these deliveries may precedeor follow; (b) the account also records as purchases guarantees ofnonrecourse loans by the Commodity Credit Corporation at the timethe guarantees are made, rather than when the collateral is sur-rendered; (c) interest on savings bonds and Treasury bills is treatedas an expenditure in' the Federal sector account when the interest is

3 3 6 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

accrued, rather than when it is actually paid out in cash; and (d) cer-tain foreign currency activities of the Commodity Credit Corporationalso require an adjustment—the Corporation facilitates exports ofsurplus agricultural commodities by paying dollars to exporters, inexchange for foreign currencies received for the exports. Expendi-tures in the Federal sector account are recorded only at the time theseforeign currencies are subsequently used for Government programs.The consolidated cash statement, on the other hand, includes thedollar payments to exporters but excludes both the receipt and thesubsequent expenditure of a large part of these foreign currencies.

4. Capital transactions.—Many capital or financial transactionswhich are included in the consolidated cash statement are excludedfrom the Federal sector account. These items consist primarily ofloans, mortgages, and other financial claims. Also excluded are pur-chases and sales of existing assets, such as land and secondhandproperty.

USES AND LIMITATIONS

Each of the three measures—the administrative budget, consoli-dated cash statement, and the Federal sector of the income andproduct accounts—is useful for specific kinds of analysis, and theselection of which to use should be determined by the problem at hand.

The administrative budget provides a useful measure of theGovernment's operations which are financed by the Government'sown funds.

The Federal sector account is especially suited for an analysis offiscal policy. It was specifically designed to complement the data onprivate expenditures and incomes contained in the national incomeaccounts.

The national income accounts, however, exclude a substantialvolume of financial transactions through which the Federal Govern-ment significantly affects the capital and credit markets. Moreover,in financial markets, the flow of cash payments to the Governmentmay be more significant than the accrual of tax liabilities. As a re-sult, for purposes of analysis of the Federal impact on money andcredit, the consolidated cash statement is generally more useful thanthe national income accounts.

For certain types of problems, no overall measure of receipts andexpenditures will serve adequately. Since the various receipt andexpenditure transactions have different economic effects, a givenaggregate will have an economic impact which depends importantlyon the composition of the total.

In addition, many Government transactions besides receipts andexpenditures affect the economy. For example, a rapid expansion innew appropriations and in Government orders could stimulate a risein business activity well before either the delivery of goods, the per-formance of services, or the payment for them. The management ofpublic debt is a further factor which has a significant impact in themoney and credit markets of the economy. Consequently, in eval-uating the economic impact of Federal Government activities, thereis no substitute for complete and detailed analysis of the Governmentprogram in all its aspects.

SPECIAL ANALYSIS B

PUBLIC ENTERPRISES, TRUST FUNDS, AND GROSS EXPENDITURES OFTHE GOVERNMENT

This analysis presents selected information on the public enterprisefunds and the trust funds with special reference to financing. It alsocovers certain receipts and reimbursements from outside the Treasuryto general fund appropriations and other accounts which are nettedin the administrative budget expenditures, and it indicates the magni-tude of total expenditures if such netting did not occur. Additionaltables in this special analysis relating to borrowing and investmentsin U.S. securities are an integral part of the computation of thechanges in public debt in table 11 of part 2 of the budget.

PUBLIC ENTERPRISE FUNDS

The public enterprise funds are federally owned funds which carryon a cycle of operations, primarily with the public, organized usuallyon a business-type basis. Some of them are incorporated enterprises;others are unincorporated. Their expenditures have been included,on a net basis, in the administrative budget for many years. Thegeneral fund usually supplies them with capital; the provision of suchcapital, its return, and any dividends given to the general fund arenot counted in the budget totals as expenditures or receipts.

Expenditures and receipts.—Expenditures of public enterprise fundsare estimated to be $21.5 billion in 1965, and their receipts will be$19.9 billion (table B-l) , resulting in net expenditures of $1.6 billionwhich are included in the administrative budget totals. The Com-modity Credit Corporation and the postal fund together account forsomewhat more than half of the transactions. The figures for both1964 and 1965 take account of the legislative proposal to put theRural Electrification Administration loan program on a public enter-prise fund basis.

The expenditures in table B-l include certain interfund paymentsto the general fund, principally for interest (see note at end of table14). The receipts shown in table B-l are generally from the public;but they include some transactions from within the Government—notably, the sales of Commodity Credit Corporation inventoriesand services to appropriations for special activities, accountingfor $2 billion of the Commodity Credit Corporation receipts shown for1965. The sales of Tennessee Valley Authority power to Governmentagencies, payments by all agencies to the Post Office for postal services,and interest paid to certain funds on their investments are otherexamples of such intragovernmental receipts included in table B-l .

Treasury financing.—Capital requirements of the public enterprisefunds are usually supplied through new obligational authority (eitherappropriations or some other form of NOA) from the general fund.While most public enterprise funds are operated to be self-sustainingover a period of years, the largest—the Commodity Credit Corpora-tion—has incurred substantial losses in most years. Appropriationshave been made regularly to make up for the loss in this fund, thepostal deficit, and other losses in a few smaller funds. Contractauthorizations have also been provided for the Commodity CreditCorporation and for the Urban Renewal Fund of the Housing andHome Finance Agency.

TRUST FUNDS

The trust funds are administered in a fiduciary capacity by theGovernment. They are not included in the administrative budgettotals, and transactions between the general fund and the trust fundsare conducted "at arm's length"—that is, payments between them arereported as expenditures and receipts of the funds involved.

Expenditures and receipts.—Trust fund expenditures are estimatedto be $29.4 billion in 1965, with receipts of $30.9 billion, as shown intable B-4. The transactions of the Federal old-age and survivorsinsurance fund are slightly more than half of the totals.

GOVERNMENT-SPONSORED ENTERPRISES AND ANNEXED BUDGETS

This budget continues the practice adopted a year ago of includingwith the trust fund expenditures certain transactions of five Govern-ment-sponsored enterprises, stated on a net basis. The transactionsthus reported relate to investments in U.S. securities and debt issuancefor which the Treasury acts as fiscal agent; amounts equal to the netdebt issuance or net disinvestments of such enterprises are used asan estimate of net expenditures.

The budget appendix includes for the first time this year detailedbudget statements with respect to seven self-supporting activities,including three of the Government-sponsored enterprises just men-tioned, and four other activities. (In the case of one of the latter,the Exchange stabilization fund, estimates for the years 1964 and1965 are incomplete.)

OTHER EXCLUSIONS FROM ADMINISTRATIVE BUDGET RECEIPTS

The law permits certain collections to be credited as reimbursementsto general fund appropriations. Such collections from outside the ad-ministrative budget accounts are identified in the detailed schedulesof the budget appendix as reimbursements from "non-Federal sources,"distinguishing them from reimbursements within the administrativebudget sector. The intragovernmental revolving and managementfunds also have some receipts from outside the Government. TableB-8 reflects the estimated amount of such collections which arecredited to appropriations or to intragovernmental funds.

BORROWING OTHER THAN FROM THE GENERAL FUND

The Tennessee Valley Authority has authority to borrow $750million from the public. The Federal Housing Administration hasan indefinite authorization to issue short-term debentures in connec-tion with its settlements. The Federal National Mortgage Associa-tion trust revolving fund has authority to issue its own debt instru-ments in an amount equal to 10 times the aggregate of its capitaland retained earnings. The District of Columbia Armory Boardwas authorized to issue bonds for the financing of the stadium com-pleted in 1961. A few funds in liquidation are retiring earlier debt is-

A small portion of such borrowing is from other funds; the largerpart is from the public and in effect reduces the Treasury borrowingfrom the public (see table 11 of part 2).

About 70% of all Federal civilian employees work in three agencies,the Department of Defense, Post Office, and the Veterans Adminis-tration. The Departments of Agriculture, Health, Education, andWelfare, and Treasury account for another 12%. AH the remaining50-odd agencies of the Government account for only 18% of theemployment. The totals for the major agencies are shown on table 12in part 2.

TYPES OF POSITIONS

Employees appointed to four major types of positions make up theFederal work force. They are designated "permanent," "temporary,""part-time," and "intermittent," respectively.

Most employees occupy positions called "permanent," though thesepositions can usually be abolished by the head of the employing agencyif he decides to discontinue a function or to reorganize staffing arrange-ments so as to improve efficiency, or if funds are not available to

support the agency*s full authorized strength. Most of these em-ployees are not office workers, but are to be found on postal routes,in hospitals, shipyards and research laboratories, in national forestsand parks, as teachers in Indian schools, airway control experts,highway construction engineers, border patrol inspectors, and inmany other places and jobs.

Most short-term fluctuations in total Federal employment reflectchanges in the number of "temporary," "part-time," and "inter-mittent" employees in service. "Temporary" positions are predomi-nantly of a seasonal character and usually vary in number by at least30,000 between peak employment during the summer months and themidwinter nadir. "Part-time" employees are found principally inthe Post Office and the Veterans Administration, and are used to meetworkloads that regularly require less than a full week's work. "Inter-

mittent employees" include leave replacements for rural mail carriers,consultants, members of advisory committees, and others who maywork for the Government for as little as 1 day a month, and in somemonths not at all.

As the fiscal year ends on June 30, the end-of-year employmentfigure includes most of the seasonal employees likely to be on boardat any one time of the year and is, therefore, higher than the averagenumber of employees for the year. Table C-2 shows the compositionof Federal employment by type of position and major agency at theend of fiscal 1963.

EMPLOYMENT CHANGES IN PARTICULAR AGENCIES

The President has directed each agency to institute programs toimprove management and employee productivity, and to continuouslyreassess its employment needs in the light of advances made throughthese efforts. Many agencies have achieved outstanding results, ofwhich the following are a few recent examples:

• The Department of Defense, the Government's largest employer,has identified economies which will allow a drop of 10,000 in em-ployment in 1964, and a further reduction of 17,000 in 1965.

• The Post Office Department, despite an uncontrollable workloadand the necessity to extend service to rapidly growing suburbanareas, has held staff increases to 1.8% between 1963 and 1965, ascompared with an increase of 6.4% in mail volume.

• The Agency for International Development has made manage-ment improvements in Washington and in its foreign posts which,together with program adjustments, will result in a decrease inoverall employment of about 800 in 1965.

• The Department of Agriculture will employ about 1,400 fewerpeople at the end of 1965 than at the same time in 1964, due princi-pally to improvements in management and organization, as wellas elimination of lower priority projects.

Savings achieved through economies of management and operationscontribute to the Government's ability to meet new and growingneeds. Employment growth in such agencies as the Department ofHealth, Education, and Welfare corresponds to the initiation of newprograms, usually requiring new legislation, to accomplish objectivesurgent to the national interest such as the eradication of poverty.Increases in such agencies as the Treasury Department and the Gen-eral Services Administration reflect the necessity of coping withexpanding workloads which require more people with even the mostefficient procedures. In 1965, savings accomplished through improvedmanagement will more than offset both of these kinds of increases,however.

EMPLOYMENT COMPARED WITH OTHER FACTORS

Federal employment has grown more slowly than population orother types of employment.

Between 1955 and 1965, the U.S. population will have risen at anaverage annual rate of 1.7%. The average yearly growth of Federalemployment over the same period has been 0.6%. Though notevery agency's workload is directly affected by population increases,most of them are, and have been further increased by changes in thenature and composition of the population, (e.g., increases in thenumbers of very old and very young persons). Despite this, how-ever, Federal employment has grown more slowly than the popu-lation—in 1955, each Federal employee in the executive branch served70 Americans; it is expected that in 1965 each employee will beserving 77 Americans (see table C-3). There are now approximately13 U.S. workers serving each 1,000 of the population, of which 5 areemployed by Defense, 3 by the Post Office, 1 by the Veterans Admin-istration, and 4 by all the rest of the Government.

Federal employment has also grown less than non-Federal, nonagri-cultural employment over the same period of time, as indicated intable C-3. In 1955, there were 20 non-Federal, nonagriculturalemployees for each Federal employee; but in 1965, there are ex-pected to be 24.

SPECIAL ANALYSES 351

State and local government employment will have increased by64% since 1955 while Federal civilian employment will rise less than6%.

It is also important to note that personnel compensation is a rela-tively small portion of the Federal budget. In the administrativebudget for 1965 these costs amount to only 12.5%, and they are onlyslightly more than 10% of consolidated cash expenditures. The ade-quacy of pay rates have significant monetary effects throughout thebudget, however, as they affect the quality of personnel charged withmaximizing efficiency and economy.

SPECIAL ANALYSIS D

INVESTMENT, OPERATING, AND OTHER EXPENDITURES

This analysis is designed to contribute to a greater understanding ofGovernment activities by dividing Federal administrative budget andtrust fund expenditures into several categories: (1) additions toFederal assets; (2) additions to State, local, and private assets; (3)developmental expenditures; (4) current expenses for aids and specialservices; (5) retirement and social insurance benefits (trust fundsonly); (6) other services and current operating expenses; and (7) un-classified (trust fund expenditures which do not properly belong in anyof the other categories). In each category where applicable, nationaldefense expenditures are reported separately from those for all other(civil) programs.

Basically, this analysis distinguishes between two types of expendi-tures: Those yielding benefits primarily in the future and those pro-viding benefits largely in the year in which they are made. Theformer are essentially outlays of an investment nature while the latterare principally current expenses for aids, special services, and socialinsurance benefits. Expenditures yielding benefits over a period ofyears are shown in the first three classes, while outlays providingmainly current benefits are grouped in the remaining categories.

Expenditures from administrative budget funds are shown sepa-rately from trust funds in tables D-l and D-2. The sum of the budgetand trust fund totals is greater than the total of cash payments tothe public primarily because there are intragovernmental transactions.

1. Additions to Federal assets.—This category includes administra-tive budget expenditures for direct loans, such as loans to financeprivate housing construction and encourage home ownership, to helpsmall businesses, to finance college dormitory construction, to aid farmownership and operation, to finance rural electric and telephonesystems, and to promote economic development abroad. (Most ofthese programs are included in the budget total on a net basis; that is,gross disbursements less receipts.) It also includes financial invest-ments in certain international organizations and mixed-ownershipenterprises, and expenditures for public works, for changes in majorcommodity inventories, for major equipment (including militaryequipment), and for the acquisition and improvement of real propertyand other physical assets.

Trust fund expenditures in this category consist primarily of mort-gage purchases (net of sales) by the Federal National MortgageAssociation in support of its secondary mortgage market operations,and net loans by two Government-sponsored enterprises—banks forcooperatives and the Federal intermediate credit banks.

2. Additions to State, local, and private assets.—Federal outlaysunder this heading add to State, local, and private assets. Grant-

in-aid expenditures which augment the physical assets of State andlocal governments are primarily for the construction of highways(mainly through the Highway trust fund), hospitals, airports, waste-treatment works, watershed protection projects, schools in federallyaffected areas, and public facilities under the area redevelopmentprogram and the temporary accelerated public works program.Federal expenditures which increase the value of privately ownedassets are largely for the conservation and improvement of privatefarm land and water, for grants to States for the building of privatehospitals and other health facilities, and for construction subsidies tothe merchant fleet. Trust fund expenditures in this category, inaddition to the highway program, include the net loans made by theFederal land banks and the Federal home loan banks (Government-sponsored enterprises in which the Federal Government no longerholds any capital stock); these loans strengthen lending institutionswhich promote farming and individual home ownership.

3. Developmental expenditures.—Federal expenditures of this typeinclude outlays principally for research and development, educationand health, and other programs which increase the Nation's fund ofknowledge and technical skills and improve the physical vigor of thepopulation. The total of Federal spending shown in this categorydoes not fully reflect the Government's contribution to the produc-tivity of the economy, since it excludes additions to physical assets, aswell as certain other programs which further this end. The latterare classified in accordance with their principal purpose; thus, veteranseducational benefits are listed as veterans aids rather than as develop-mental outlays. Similarly, the training of military personnel or otherGovernment personnel is treated as an operating expense and not aspart of the Government's education and training programs.

4. Current expenses jor aids and special services.—Expendituresclassified under this heading provide aids or special services to certaingroups—mainly in the year in which the outlays are made. In addi-tion to such items as realized losses of the Commodity Credit Corpora-tion on its farm programs, maritime operating subsidies, veteranspensions, and grants to foreign nations for economic and militaryassistance, this category includes (a) administrative and other operat-ing expenses attributable to investment-type programs which benefitspecific groups, and (b) the costs of maintaining the physical assetsrelated to those programs.

Only part of the Federal Government's aid to special groups isreflected in this classification, which is limited by definition to currentexpenses. For example, subsidies for the construction of privatemerchant ships are classified as additions to private assets. Similarly,outlays for which the Federal Government receives assets or collateral(as the acquisition of farm commodities by the Commodity CreditCorporation) are treated as additions to Federal assets. Manyindirect Government aids are excluded from this classification eitherbecause they are not reflected in expenditures or cannot be readilymeasured. Examples of such indirect benefits include low interestrates on some loans and certain preferential tax treatments.

Although expenditures in this category essentially provide a directaid or special service yielding immediate benefits, some of the outlaysincluded contribute indirectly to the Nation's future development.Among these are grants for slum clearance and urban renewal.

5. Retirement and social insurance benefits.—This category appliesonly to trust funds. It covers benefit programs which (a) are fi-nanced from special taxes or contributions and (b) provide insuranceagainst the loss of income due to unemployment, retirement, disability,or death. It does not include Government employees' health andlife insurance expenditures, which are in the form of subscription andpremium payments to approved private companies. It also excludessuch noncontributory programs as public assistance grants, militaryretired pay, and veterans disability and death compensation andpensions which are financed through the administrative budget.

6. Other services and current operating expenses.—The outlays re-ported under this heading support a wide range of activities. They

Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

Page 351: bus_1965

SPECIAL ANALYSES 355

consist mainly of current expenditures for: Pay and subsistence ofmilitary personnel; repair, maintenance, and operation of physicalassets of the national military establishment and general purposepublic buildings; conduct of foreign affairs; tax collection; payment ofinterest on the national debt; and operation and administration ofother direct Federal programs not elsewhere classified.

7. Unclassified.—Certain trust fund expenditures represent finan-cial transfers to other trust or budget accounts and cannot be properlyclassified into any of the categories described above. Advances andrepayments between the Railroad retirement account and the Unem-ployment trust fund (for railroad unemployment benefits) areexamples of such transactions. This grouping also includes theexpenditures of the District of Columbia which are for the most partlocally financed, but are accounted for as a Federal trust fund.Deposit fund transactions (net) are also included here.

Recoverability of expenditures.—In general, Government expendi-tures for assets are not expected to be recovered by specific revenues.However, most loans, investment in commodity inventories, the con-struction of powerplants, and outlays for range and forest improve-ments on public domain and national forest lands are offset in wholeor in part by receipts to the Treasury through repayments and sales,specific charges, or recoveries. Where such activities are carried onthrough revolving funds, as in most loan programs, receipts arecredited directly against the expenditures and only the difference isincluded in the expenditure total in the budget and in this analysis.In other cases, the returns are included as miscellaneous receipts to theTreasury rather than as offsets to expenditures.

Whether recovered by specific revenues or not, investment anddevelopmental expenditures in both physical and human capital addto the wealth and income of the Nation and, by helping to expand thetax base, augment the Government's potential future revenues.However, this analysis does not attempt to measure the degree ofrecoverability of these outlays, the potential gain in public revenueswhich will be forthcoming from them, nor the duration of futurebenefits and their discounted present value.

Comparison with capital accounting, budgeting, and funding.—Thepurpose of this analysis is to provide a broad framework for under-standing Federal expenditures, recognizing not only outlays to increasephysical capital and financial assets, but also developmental expendi-tures which represent an investment in human capital. It does notdistinguish precisely between capital and current items, although itdoes provide useful general magnitudes. Moreover, it does not makeany allowance for depreciation and obsolescence on existing physicalassets, anticipated losses on loan programs, or profit or loss on sales ofassets at figures different from their book value. Agencies record suchallowances only for transactions where the data will serve programand management needs, as in the case of the public enterprise funds.As a result, it is not possible to determine directly from this analysisthe net addition to the value of federally owned assets.

356 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

This analysis is not a capital budget in the sense of a long-rangeprogram for the acquisition of assets, or a plan for separate financingof capital expenditures. Some foreign governments and some Stateand local governments fund a portion of their capital expenditures byseparate borrowing and exclude most or all such expenditures fromtheir computation of budget totals, except for annual charges toamortize these capital outlays over a number of years. The U.S.budget, on the other hand, treats outlays for investment items andfor other purposes alike in computing the budget surplus or deficit.

SPECIAL ANALYSIS E

FEDERAL CREDIT PROGRAMS

INTRODUCTION

Federal credit aids help achieve basic objectives of Governmentprograms in six major areas. Most important are the loan, loaninsurance, and loan guarantee programs for: (a) improvement of pri-vate housing and encouragement 01 home ownership; (b) developmentof agricultural and other natural resources; and (c) promotion ofeconomic development abroad. In addition, Federal credit programsprovide significant assistance for: (d) domestic business, e.g., smallbusiness generally, transportation, and commercial fisheries; (e)community development and public housing; and (f) higher education.

Federal Credit ProgramsNew Commitments

These programs are intended to supplement, rather than to sub-stitute for private credit. In some cases, they fill gaps by providingor stimulating a type of credit not otherwise generally available toimportant groups of borrowers. Often they assume or share in riskswhich private lenders, at least initially, cannot reasonably be expectedto undertake. Similarly, the terms on which the assistance is providedoften are more liberal, with longer maturities, smaller downpayments,

or lower interest rates than are generally available otherwise. Inseveral programs the loans are part of a package of Federal assistance,which may include, for example, research grants to help identifypromising new industries for depressed areas, or technical aids to helpunderdeveloped countries plan and construct basic transportationsystems.

Unlike almost all other Government programs, the initial expendi-tures involved for credit programs are largely or wholly repayable,so that the ultimate net cost is normally low. Some programs arefully self-supporting; in most others, the income from interest pay-ments or insurance and guarantee fees covers most of the currentexpenses and/or provides reserves for future losses. Customarily,administrative expenses are paid from income, but occasionallyseparate appropriations are made to finance them. Thus, theseprograms are mainly methods of helping borrowers to help themselves.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON FEDERAL CREDIT PROGRAMS

In February 1963, President Kennedy released the report of theCommittee on Federal Credit Programs.1 The Committee, chairedby the Secretary of the Treasury, reviewed legislation and administra-tive policies governing present Federal credit programs and theireffectiveness in helping to meet national goals. It recommended a setof guidelines to serve as "a framework for the further evolution ofthese programs to meet the changing requirements of an expandingAmerican economy."

In transmitting the report to the departments and other agenciesadministering the various credit programs, the President suggestedthat they be "guided by the principles outlined in the report in ad-ministering their present programs and especially in proposing anynew or expanded credit authority." Specific assignments were alsomade to the Director of the Bureau of the Budget, the Chairman of theCouncil of Economic Advisers and the Secretary of the Treasury totake the lead in assuring effective and equitable application of theseguidelines, in reviewing special economic problems and in assuringthat borrowing arrangements are consistent with overall monetaryand debt management policy.

COVERAGE OF SPECIAL ANALYSIS

The number of types of assistance and the overall level of activityin Federal credit programs have been gradually rising—as new pro-grams are authorized by the Congress and existing programs broad-ened. At the same time, important changes in emphasis are occurring,and programs established for temporary reasons in earlier years areliquidating their operations as outstanding loans are repaid or privatelyrefinanced.

The analysis this year presents separate information on major creditprograms administered by seven cabinet departments and five otheragencies. Separate information is presented for the first time on themilitary assistance credits of the Department of Defense. In addi-tion, the 1965 estimates reflect: (a) enactment of legislation broad-ening credit aids for education by the Department of Health, Educa-

tion, and Welfare and authorizing two new types of credit extensionby the Department of the Interior; (b) proposed legislation to author-ize Federal insurance or guarantees of private credit to aid ruralhousing, urban mass transportation, college students, and hospitalmodernization; and (c) proposed legislation to authorize sales ofparticipations in pools of housing loans by the Housing and HomeFinance Agency and the Veterans Administration.

The analysis includes (in tables E-2 and E-3) the total amounts,but no detailed information, on outstanding loans and guaranteesand on net expenditures for numerous smaller or relatively inactivecredit programs administered by seven departments and five otheragencies; these account for about 0.4% of outstanding direct and guar-anteed loans. Loan programs of important quasi-public agencies areexcluded from tables E-l to E-5, but their outstanding loans areshown in table E-6. The analysis excludes borrowing from theTreasury by other Federal agencies, whether for loans or otherprograms.2

NEW COMMITMENTS

New commitments are the best single measure of the trends in mostFederal credit programs. They also give the best advance indicationof trends in the economic impact of these programs, since changes inthe level of new commitments usually precede corresponding changesin the volume of loans disbursed by either public agencies or privatelenders and in the purchase of goods and services by the ultimateborrowers.

In this analysis, commitments are defined as approvals by Federalagencies of direct loans or of insurance or guarantees of private loans.They are shown on a gross basis, including administrative reserva7tions or other commitments which do not later result in actual creditextensions, as well as the unguaranteed portions of loans partiallycovered by Federal guarantees.

Direct loans.—New commitments of $7.9 billion estimated fordirect loans in 1965 are $1.1 billion higher than the actual commit-ments made in 1963. The largest increases expected are for loans toforeign borrowers by the Export-Import Bank and for mortgagepurchases by the Federal National Mortgage Association. Thenewly enacted legislation for college academic facility loans and otherincreased educational loans by the Department of Health, Education,and Welfare will cause commitments for these programs to more thantriple the actual 1963 level. The two most active international lend-ing programs, the Export-Import Bank and the Agency for Inter-national Development, together will account for almost 40% of newdirect loan commitments in 1965.

Guarantees and insurance.—New commitments for guarantees andinsurance of private loans will continue to rise to an estimated $21.4billion in 1965. About two-thirds of the total new commitmentsand of the rise during the 2-year period will be in housing loansinsured by the Federal Housing Administration. The largest other in-creases are expected in guarantees of loans to foreign borrowers by

Overlapping commitments.—The total estimated commitments of$29.3 billion include several cases where two or more types of Federalassistance are provided for the same borrower, or on the same prop-erty a different stages in the financing process. For example,all of tne $0.7 billion of commitments for mortgage purchases by theFederal National Mortgage Association are for mortgages coveredby insurance or guarantees made by other Federal agencies. Com-mitments by the Public Housing Administration are likewise madeat more than one stage of the financing of local low-rent publichousing.

3 7 6 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

$14.7 billion on June 30, 1965, will account for 45% of all direct loansof Federal agencies at that time. While the Treasury Departmentand the Bank will reduce their portfolios during the 2-year period by$1.4 billion, AID expects to have a $2.8 billion increase.

During the same 2 years increases in outstanding loans by theRural Electrification Administration and the Farmers Home Ad-ministration will be partly offset by the anticipated $459 millionreduction in the Commodity Credit Corporation portfolio. Forall other credit programs, the net reduction of $1.5 billion in loansheld by the Federal National Mortgage Association, the VeteransAdministration and the Federal Housing Administration—primarilyresulting from increased sales to private lenders—will roughly balancethe continuing expansion in the outstanding loans of the CommunityFacilities Administration, the Department of Health, Education, andWelfare, the Small Business Administration, the Area RedevelopmentAdministration and other credit programs.

Guaranteed and insured loans outstanding are expected to go upby $9.6 billion over the 2-year period. Mortgage and propertyimprovement loans insured by the Federal Housing Administrationwill account for more than half of the total in 1965 and for two-ithirdsof the net; increase during the period. Other substantial increasesare estimated for the Export-Import Bank, the Agency for Interna-tional Development, the Public Housing Administration, the UrbanRenewal Administration and the Farmers Home Administration. Out-standing guaranteed loans of the Veterans Administration will declineby $2.5 billion, as more loans mature, or are prepaid, and fewer newloans are made as veterans exhaust their eligibility for this type ofcredit assistance.

The amounts shown include both the guaranteed and unguaranteedportion of outstanding loans in order to give a clearer picture of theeconomic impact of these programs and to tie in better with banking-statistics. Thus, they do not indicate the estimated contingentliability of the Federal Government. The major program for whichthe contingent liability differs materially from the principal amountof the loans is the veterans loan guarantee program; by the end of1965, the Government's liability will be about $12.5 billion lower thanthe outstanding amount of such guaranteed loans.

DISBURSEMENTS AND REPAYMENTS

Direct loans can have a major budgetary impact, since the differencebetween disbursements and repayments represents net expendituresor receipts. Federal guarantees and insurance of private loans, onthe other hand, ordinarily have only a minor effect on Federal expendi-tures, since they result primarily in expenditures by private financialinstitutions. Net expenditures for Federal credit assistance, there-fore, give only a partial picture of the economic impact of most ofthese programs.

Net expenditures of all Government lending programs (with theexception of loans from trust funds or by quasi-public agencies) areincluded in the administrative budget totals. In most currentlyactive loan programs, collections are offset directly against expendi-tures. In the case of the Rural Electrification Administration,collections on loans are deposited to miscellaneous receipts, but

In the case of foreign loans, disbursements andrepayments in foreign currencies are included in the analysis, thoughthey are not included in budget expenditures and receipts. Alsoincluded is sales credit extended to buyers of federally owned assets,even when no budget expenditures are involved.

3 7 8 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

Gross loan disbursements of major credit programs are expectedto decline slightly from the 1963 level in both 1964 and 1965. How-ever, repayments will rise sharply in both years from $6.9 billion in1963 to an estimated $8.1 billion in 1965. As a result, the net ex-penditures of over $1.6 billion in 1963 will be reduced to less than$0.4 billion in 1965. After adding in net expenditures for othercredit programs and adjusting for repayments going directly tomiscellaneous receipts, for loans in foreign currencies and for salescredit extensions involving no budget expenditures, receipts willexceed budget expenditures for loans in 1965 by an estimated $98million.

The sharply reduced net impact on the budget anticipated in 1965arises mainly from the considerable fall now expected in disbursementson Commodity Credit Corporation loans from the unusually high1963 levels, together with increased substitution of private for publiccredit, primarily by the Export-Import Bank, the Federal NationalMortgage Association and the Farmers Home Administration.

PRIVATE PARTICIPATION IN CREDIT PROGRAMS

The relative importance of public and private credit varies greatly,for different types of credit. Direct loans outstanding to domesticprivate borrowers amounted to 2.2% of the estimated private debtof $716 billion outstanding on June 30, 1963. Private loans partlyor wholly guaranteed by Federal agencies comprised 11.2% of thetotal private debt on that date. Federal participation was muchhigher in agricultural and housing credit; on the other hand, direct orguaranteed loans provided only a fraction of 1% of the total creditotherwise used by private businesses.

As a general rule, Federal credit programs endeavor to maximizeprivate participation. Federal guarantees and insurance of privatecredit account for almost three-quarters of all new commitments ofFederal credit programs and for about the same proportion of out-standing Federal credit assistance. Excluding loans to foreignborrowers, the predominance of guaranteed and insured loans is evengreater.

Emphasis upon private participation is reflected both in the basicstatutes and in the administrative policies of the major credit pro-grams. Often direct loans are prohibited except when the borrowercannot otherwise obtain the funds from other sources on reasonableterms. In two major programs (the Public Housing Administrationand the Urban Renewal Administration) the direct loans made arecustomarily refinanced in whole or in part by private loans guaranteedby the Federal agency. In four other programs (college housing andpublic facility loans made by the Community Facilities Administra-tion, business loans by the Small Business Administration, and foreignloans by the Export-Import Bank), administrative policies emphasizejoint participations between private lenders and the Governmentlending agencies. In the first two programs, the borrowers are re-quired to advertise all offerings of their obligations publicly and theCommunity Facilities Administration purchases only those whichprivate lenders are unwilling to buy at predetermined interest rates.

In the past year, a Government-wide effort has been made to sellexisting loans from the portfolios of Federal agencies to privatelenders and to encourage private refinancing. During fiscal 1963over $1.1 billion of such sales were consummated, considerably abovesales in any previous year. In 1964 and 1965, these sales are esti-mated to increase to $1.6 billion and $2.3 billion respectively. Thesefigures exclude not only regular amortization and prepayments ofprincipal, but also sales made as part of the usual process of guaran-teeing or insuring loans and sales from one Government agency toanother agency.

The salable portions of the loan portfolios are concentratedmainly in the Export-Import Bank and in the various mortgage andother housing loans. Most of the loans held by other Federal creditprograms have interest rates, maturities, or other terms which makethem currently unattractive to private lenders except at sacrificeprices. Legislation is being proposed to authorize sales of certificatesof participations in pools of loans owned by the Federal NationalMortgage Association and the Veterans Administration.

INTEREST RATES AND MATURITIES

Two of the major ways in which Federal credit programs helpachieve program objectives are by providing more favorable interestrates or maturities than many borrowers can obtain from othersources. Table E-5 summarizes the current range of interest ratescharged by the various major credit programs on direct loans (or pre-vailing on insured or guaranteed loans) and the customary maturitiesfor both direct and insured and guaranteed loans. These terms areon newly committed loans by currently active programs, and do notnecessarily correspond to those on previously outstanding loans, or onloans covered by commitments made in earlier years.

or Peace Corps service.3 In addition, property improvement loans are insured for $4 to $5 discount per year (equivalent

to over 8% simple interest), and with maturities of 6 months to 7 years.

SPECIAL ANALYSES 381

Interest rates charged on direct loans vary greatly both amongthe various Federal credit agencies and sometimes among the varioustypes of loans made by a single agency. Many of the differences inrates reflect mainly differences in the cost of providing the loan,including the cost of borrowing the necessary funds, of administeringthe varying types of loans and of incurring the varying degrees ofrisk of probable loss. In many cases, the rate charged is governedby statutory limits or formulas. These sometimes are intended toassure loans at rates below those prevailing in the private market orbelow the cost to the Government, in order to provide special assist-ance to particular groups of borrowers as a method of accomplishingFederal program objectives. In some cases, the rates charged reflectmainly Government borrowing costs in earlier periods, rather thancurrent market yields of Government obligations.

Interest rates charged on insured and guaranteed loans tend tocorrespond more closely to market rates of interest on comparableloans by private lenders—allowing for the reduction or removal ofthe normal private credit risk. In a few cases, interest rates on insuredloans are deliberately set below the market rate and a secondarymarket provided to assure the willingness of the private lender tomake the initial loans; for example, the Federal Housing Adminis-tration was authorized in the Housing Act of 1961 to insure certaintypes of loans to finance moderate-income housing at rates well belowthose prevailing in the private market and the Federal NationalMortgage Association purchases all of such mortgages.

Maturities, both on direct and on insured or guaranteed loans, oftenare substantially more liberal than on private loans of similar types.Private lenders are often limited by law or supervisory policy toshorter maturities. When a Federal agency insures or guarantees theloans, however, these limitations customarily do not apply. Whenborrowers are acquiring assets yielding income or tangible benefits overa long period of years, long-term loans reduce periodic installmentsand make it possible for borrowers to undertake such acquisitions withreasonable assurance of repayment.

QUASI-PUBLIC CREDIT PROGRAMS

The Federal Government also has certain responsibilities for thecredit programs of mixed-ownership corporations and other publicagencies operating in whole or in part with private funds. Table E-6summarizes the outstanding loans for eight institutions or groups ofinstitutions of this type which have important lending operations.

Outstanding loans of the five groups of mixed-ownership enterprisesand trust funds for which estimates of future fiscal years as well asactual data on the past years are available will increase from a totalof $5.7 billion in 1963 to an estimated $6.4 billion by the end of thefiscal year 1965. Most of the anticipated increase is in the operationsof the Federal intermediate credit banks.

The three other groups of institutions, which are privately owned,increased their outstanding loans from $5.9 billion at the end of 1962to $6.6 billion on June 30, 1963, primarily because of the $0.5 billionincrease in advances by the Federal home loan banks during 1963.This increase has accelerated during 1964, but is not expected tocontinue in 1965. No data are available on the expected trends inloans by the Federal land banks or in discounts and advances by theFederal Reserve banks.

SPECIAL ANALYSIS F

FEDERAL ACTIVITIES IN PUBLIC WORKS

Many types of public works are needed by the Federal Governmentto carry out its program responsibilities. In some cases the structuresare built by the Federal Government, usually under contract withprivate enterprise; in other cases, Federal financial assistance in theform of grants or loans is provided to State and local authorities forpublic facilities needed in the national interest.

Construction undertaken directly by the Federal agencies involve?facilities ranging from large water resources developments, spac(facilities, office buildings, and defense installations to small recrea-tional facilities, warehouses, and border facilities. Federal grants orloans are provided for highways, hospitals, waste treatment works,educational facilities, sewage systems, and many other types ofcommunity facilities.

Direct Federal construction currently constitutes about 22% ofthe total public construction in the United States. State and localpublic works benefiting from Federal grants represent another 24%,two-thirds of which is financed from Federal funds. Federal cost-sharing, which depends upon program objectives and provisions oflaw, varies substantially among the grant programs.

In 1965, Federal expenditures for public works are estimated toreach $8.7 billion, an increase of $228 million over the 1964 level.This total is more than double the level of 10 years ago. Partof this dollar increase results from increased construction costs,which are now about 15% above 1956. The increase in public works

SPECIAL ANALYSES 385

Approximately four-fifths of the $8.7 billion to be spent in 1965 willbe for civil public works; the remainder will be for military publicworks and atomic energy facilities.

Direct Federal public works activities, which are scattered through-out the States and territories, are roughly estimated to provide 457,000man-years of employment, onsite and offsite, in 1965. Constructionaided by Federal grants, including the State or local share of thecosts, will provide an estimated additional 653,000 man-years of labor.

The Federal Government also provides financial assistance for non-profit and private capital facilities through loans, loan guarantees,tax concessions and lease contracts, and indirectly supports throughprocurement contracts the provision of some private facilities whichproduce only materials to meet Government requirements, such asmissiles, space components, and helium conservation. These activi-ties, however, are not within the scope of this analysis.

CIVIL PUBLIC WOKKS

Civil public works expenditures of $7.2 billion in 1965 are estimatedto be $251 million above the 1964 estimate. Expenditures for directFederal public works in 1965, estimated at $2.8 billion, make up39% of this total. The largest increases in direct Federal construc-tion for 1965 include $45 million by the National Aeronautics andSpace Administration, $36 million by the Corps of Engineers—Civil,and $32 million by the General Services Administration. Under thepublic works acceleration program, initiated in 1963 to relieve unem-ployment, expenditures for direct Federal work will decrease by $103million between 1964 and 1965.

The $4.2 billion of grants for State and local public works makeup 58% of total civil works expenditures. Slightly more than $3.5billion of this total consists of grants for the Federal-aid highwayprograms financed from the Highway trust fund. Federal aid for theprimary, secondary, and urban highways is on a 50-50 matching basis ;for the National System of Interstate and Defense Highways it is 90%.

Significant amounts of local public construction receive Federalfinancial assistance through loans. The $103 million of expendituresfor loans by the Housing and Home Finance Agency make up 56% ofthe total loan expenditures. Since expenditures on the various loanprograms are included in the budget totals on a net basis (i.e., ex-penditures for new loans are generally offset by repayments of loansmade in prior years), the totals do not reflect the amount of construc-tion aid provided from loans. New loans by the Housing and HomeFinance Agency are estimated at $322 million in 1965.

New and continuing work.—About $2.6 billion of the $2.8 billion ofexpenditures for direct Federal civil public works in 1965 will be tocontinue or complete construction of projects started prior to 1965.Completion of these projects is estimated to require expenditures of$9.3 billion after 1965.

New Federal projects to be started with funds'recommended in thebudget will require an estimated $191 million of expenditures in1965, and will commit the Government to additional expenditures after1965 of an estimated $1.8 billion. In the water resources field, the

by the National Aeronautical and Space Administration, ranging fromresearch and plant-support facilities to large launch and test facilities.Among the other new starts are public buildings by the General ServicesAdministration, hospitals by the Veterans Administration, a U.S.mint in Philadelphia by the Treasury Department, the NationalAgricultural Library by the Department of Agriculture, and environ-mental health facilities by the Public Health Service. Table F-3shows the total costs of new Federal project starts, as well as theestimated expenditures in 1965 and later years.

In addition to the new direct Federal works to be started, severalnew programs have been authorized recently or are recommended forwhich Federal grants, and in some cases Federal loans, will be madeto State and local groups to meet the Nation's needs for higher educa-tion facilities; vocational, research, and training facilities; classroomsfor elementary and secondary schools; libraries; community healthcenters; and research facilities on mental retardation. Also, theSoil Conservation Service will aid in the construction of 36 newwatershed projects, and the Bureau of Reclamation will make loansto local groups for 3 small reclamation projects.

Public works planning and surveys.—The 1965 budget includesexpenditures of $77 million for advance planning of new Federalprojects, including acquisition of sites by the General Services Admin-istration for public buildings. To encourage preparation and mainte-nance of a current and adequate reserve of local public works and topromote economy and efficiency in building such works, the Housingand Home Finance Agency will make planning advances of $14million in 1965 to States, municipalities, and other public agencies.

Significant amounts will also be spent for preliminary surveys andgeneral investigations to assure economic design and construction ofnew Federal projects. The 1965 budget recommendations for waterresource activities continue on a coordinated basis the comprehensiveriver basin planning by the major Federal agencies concerned. Thesestudies provide long-range economic, hydrologic, and land-use projec-tions for the various river basins, and serve as a basis for planningindividual water resource projects to be undertaken in later years.Expenditures of about $8 million will be made for this purpose in1965 by the Departments of the Army, Interior, Agriculture, andHealth, Education, and Welfare. Expenditures for these activitiesare not included in the public works expenditures in this analysis.

Authorized reserve of direct Federal public works.—Table F-4 sum-marizes the $13 billion reserve of Federal projects which have beenauthorized by substantive legislation. Such projects require onlyfinancing and planning for starting. This reserve provides a basisfor a wise selection of projects for advance planning and for startingin accordance with program needs and budgetary policy.

Civil public works by function.—Federal programs are classified inthe budget by major functional categories. Table F-7 groups thepublic works activities according to these functions. Some of thesefunctional areas require very large investments in public works; othersrequire few public works.

About 57% of the $7.2 billion of civil public works expenditures in1965 will be spent for public works under the commerce and trans-portation function. Major expenditures include the grants for high-ways, airports, and public works acceleration, and direct Federalexpenditures for air navigation facilities and modernization of postoffices.

The public works acceleration program was enacted in September1962 to accelerate Federal, State, and local public works, both toprovide immediate employment opportunities and to meet longstand-ing needs for such facilities. Only projects located in redevelopmentareas or in areas suffering from substantial unemployment which arecapable of substantial completion within a year after initiation areeligible for aid. Appropriations for the program are allocated bythe President upon recommendation of the Secretary of Commerce.Like the activities of the Area Kedevelopment Administration, theprogram is classified in the commerce and transportation function.However, funds are allocated, to various Federal agencies, whoseregular activities are classified in other functions. Table F-5 pro-vides information on the agencies participating in the program. Asof November 1, 1963, 7,021 projects had been approved. Theseprojects will generate an estimated 1,120,000 man-months of onsiteemployment.

i Includes grants of $0.9, $33.8, and $29.5 million in 1963, 1964, and 1965, respectively, for non-profit private hospitals which are not classified as public works.

The largest share of the direct Federal civil construction expendi-tures in 1965 will be for development of natural resources. Of the$1.7 billion of expenditures for the natural resources programs in1965, $1.4 billion will be water resources and related power de-velopment. In addition, there will be expenditures for the construc-tion of roads, recreational facilities, facilities for fish and. wildlifeprograms, and other facilities including an estimated $40 million forconstruction of school facilities for Indian children.

Table F-6 brings together the total budget expenditures for allwater resources development, including programs carried on under theagriculture and health, labor, and welfare functions as well as thenatural resources function.

To implement the new education programs recently enacted orrecommended, the budget includes new obligational authority $146million in 1964 and $402 million in 1965 for assistance to State andlocal governments in the construction of higher education facilities(including public community colleges and technical institutes), resi-dential schools for vocational education, school classrooms, and publiclibraries. Also, new programs for health, labor, and welfare will resultin construction of additional facilities. Expenditures by the Depart-ment of Labor under proposed youth employment legislation areestimated at $31 million in 1965 for renovating existing facilities andconstructing new camps for youth in the conservation corps.

facilities, medical facilities, troop housing and other personnel facili-ties, utilities and ground improvements, and land acquisitions.

Facilities are to be constructed for one additional hardened Minute-man squadron, and funds are included for improvements to previouslyauthorized Minuteman and Titan missile sites. Projects for thePolaris missile system will contribute to the operational readiness ofthe system and the proficiency of its crews. Relocation of a portionof the Nike-Hercules air defense missile system is proposed as well asadditional work to provide the system with protection against radia-tion fallout. About 22% of the direct military construction programis related to the general purpose or tactical forces of the Army, Navy,Marine Corps, and Air Force. Approximately 10% of the* program isto provide facilities in support of research and development.

The family housing program for 1965 proposes the construction ofan additional 12,500 units as well as numerous improvements to exist-ing units.

Atomic Energy Commission.—Public works expenditures during1965 by the Atomic Energy Commission are primarily for continua-tion of work on major production plants and on research and develop-ment installations previously authorized. New projects proposedfor 1965 include modifications and additions to existing productionplants, and additional facilities for weapons production and develop-ment, reactor development, and research in the physical and bio-medical sciences.

SPECIAL ANALYSIS G

FEDERAL HEALTH PROGRAMS

This is the first comprehensive analysis of Federal health activitiesto be included in the budget document. It presents information on allthe medical and health-related activities of the Federal Government,regardless of where they may otherwise be classified in the budget.

On this broad basis, the Government will spend an estimated$5.4 billion in 1965 for all health activities—for hospital care andmedical treatment in Federal and non-Federal facilities, for construc-tion of health facilities, for health research and training, and for amultitude of preventive and community health and health-relatedprograms. Almost all of these health expenditures will be fromadministrative budget funds—more than 5% of the administrativebudget total. In addition, trust fund expenditures of $469 millionwill be made, mainly for health benefits for Federal employees, butthis will be nearly entirely offset by receipts from contributions byemployees and Federal agencies.

Compared to the total net expenditures of $5.4 billion from budgetaccounts, new obligational authority in 1965 will be $6.0 billion.

The development oj Federal health-related expenditures.—Healthprograms are among the oldest activities of the Federal Government.The origins of the Army Medical Service predate the Constitution,and the Public Health Service was established in 1798 to providehospital care for merchant seamen. Medical and hospital care wasprovided for veterans residing in the National Homes for DisabledVolunteer Soldiers established after the Civil War. Such care forall service-disabled veterans was provided by an amendment to theWar Risk Insurance Act of 1917, and in 1923 and 1924 inpatientbenefits were authorized for non-service-connected disability. Experi-ments in 1900 by Walter Reed, an Army doctor, proving thatmosquitoes carry yellow fever, indicate the longstanding Federalinterest in health research. In the last 15 or 20 years, many newhealth programs have been enacted, particularly programs whichauthorize grants to State-local agencies and to private organizationsand individuals for health research, training, facilities, and for supportof health activities and services.

Although historical figures on the comprehensive basis used in thisanalysis are not available, the directly operated hospital and medicalactivities of the Veterans Administration and the agencies now com-prising the Department of Defense were by far the largest Federalhealth programs in the decade following World War II. In recentyears, however, expenditures for care of military personnel have beenfairly level while outlays for the care of veterans have increased at asteady pace. In contrast, programs of other agencies, notably of theDepartment of Health, Education, and Welfare, with its manygrants for nonfederally operated health activities, have expandedrapidly. This can be roughly illustrated by a comparison of the pro-

posed appropriations for 1965 with the figures for obligations for 1958which were published in 1961 on a reasonably comparable basis inSenate Report No. 142, 87th Congress, 1st session, prepared by asubcommittee of the Senate Committee on Government Operations.

Health programs in 1958, according to this report, totaled about$3 billion compared to the proposed new obligational authorizations of$6.0 billion for 1965. While the total doubles during this 8-yearperiod, Department of Defense programs rise from less than $1billion to over $1.1 billion and Veterans Administration programsrise from $0.9 billion to $1.3 billion, an increase of about two-fifths.The programs of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare,however, increase almost fourfold, rising from $0.8 billion to $3billion. Funds for all other agencies combined rise from about $0.3billion in 1958 to $0.6 billion in 1965.

Distribution of Federal health programs by agency.—Seven Cabinetdepartments and more than a dozen other agencies conduct or supporthealth programs, in addition to those for Federal employees whichare financed by every agency. Many of the health activities of theseagencies are not classified in the "health, labor, and welfare" functionbut are carried on as part of broader programs and are classified inthe functional categories according to the basic purpose served,such as "national defense," "veterans benefits and services," etc.Because these activities contribute to advancing the Nation's health,they are included in this analysis. Thus while the regular functionalclassification shows expenditures of $1.7 billion in 1965 for "healthservices and research"—all by the Department of Health, Education,and Welfare—the amounts included in this analysis are more thanthree times as large and cover many agencies. Table G-l shows theexpenditures for each agency.

Of the $5.4 billion in budget and trust fund expenditures estimatedfor health in 1965 on this broad basis, $4.8 billion, or 89%, will bemade by three agencies, including 46% by the Department of Health,Education, and Welfare, 23% by the Veterans Administration, and20% by the Department of Defense. The bulk of the health expendi-tures by the Department of Defense and the Veterans Administrationare for the provision of direct care and treatment, most of which isprovided in their own hospitals and clinics. These two agencies alsohave sizable expenditures for health facilities, for training, and forsupport of health research.

The Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, on the otherhand, spends only a comparatively small portion of its health funds fordirect medical care, principally for merchant seamen and Indians inPublic Health Service hospitals. The bulk of the Department's healthcare outlays is for medical research and training and for grants toStates and localities to cover medical expenses of public assistancerecipients and medical care of the aged. The Department also spendssubstantial amounts through the Public Health Service for grants forconstruction of health facilities, for support of local and State com-munity health, and for environmental health activities.

The remaining 11%, or $0.6 billion, of the estimated expendituresin 1965 will be made by more than 15 other departments and agencies.Among these are the Agency for International Development and theDepartment of State which support health activities in other coun-

400 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1 9 6 5

Federal health programs are developing on many fronts. Of theestimated increase of $754 million in total expenditures from 1963 to1965 more than half, $441 million, is in the Department of Health,Education, and Welfare—a growth of about 22% in 2 years for thatagency. The Department of Defense and the Veterans Adminis-tration each increase by more than $100 million, with increases of11% and 9%, respectively. All other agencies show a net growthof $103 million or 21%, with the largest increases in the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration, and the Agency for Inter-national Development. The decrease which occurs in Departmentof Agriculture expenditures results because legislation is proposed tofinance meat and poultry inspections on a self-supporting fee basis.There will be no reduction in the amount of service.

Distribution oj Federal health expenditures by category and by bene-ficiary group.—Table G-2 shows the distribution of the total Federalmedical and health-related expenditures for the 3 fiscal years, 1963-65,by six categories. The accompanying chart on estimated expendi-tures for 1965 depicts the distribution of the outlays in each categorybetween the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare and allother agencies.

Of the total expenditures of $5.4 billion in 1965 for medical andhealth-related purposes, $3.0 billion or about 56% will be for provisionof health care either directly in Federal facilities or financed by Federalgrants or payments for services by non-Federal facilities. This is anincrease of $253 million from 1963.

The direct care expenditures amount to just over $2 billion, or37%, of total expenditures. Most of this service is provided in hos-pitals of the Department of Defense, Veterans' Administration, andthe Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, which, in all,comprise almost 10% of all hospital beds in the United States.

Table G-3 shows the number of hospital beds and the average dailynumber of patients during the 3 years 1963-65. The number ofindividual patients during any year is, of course, many times the dailycensus because hospital stays average 7 to 75 days for most agencies.

Federal Expenditures for Medical and Health-Related Activities by Category

In addition to this large number of inpatients, several million individ-uals each year receive outpatient care or treatment in the Federalfacilities.

Approximately one-sixth of the population in the United States isactually or potentially eligible for direct hospital care or medicaltreatment in Federal facilities based on estimates available at the endof calendar year 1963. Approximately 22.1 million living war vet-erans, including some 3 million with service-connected disabilities,comprise the largest single group of eligibles, although for ailmentsnot related to service hospital care is provided only to the extent thatVeterans Administration hospital facilities are available. Under thebasic policy of limiting its hospital system to 125,000 beds, the Vet-erans Administration meets approximately half of the hospital carerequirements of veterans with non-service-connected ailments.Active duty and retired uniformed service personnel numbering 3.1million and their 4 million dependents are also covered. Approxi-mately 2.5 million Federal employees are entitled to treatment forin-line-of-duty disabilities, although such injuries are comparativelyinfrequent. Other eligible groups include 385,000 American Indiansand natives of Alaska, 120,000 American seamen, some 73,000 civiliansin the Panama Canal Zone, an estimated 60,000 narcotic addicts,24,000 inmates of Federal prisons, and 1,500 patients with leprosy.With allowance for duplications in the above categories, an estimated30 million Americans are eligible for all or part of their health carefrom Federal facilities.

The third largest category of expenditures—$1 billion or 19% ofthe total—is for grants and payments for hospital and health care innon-Federal facilities. Grants for public assistance and for medicalcare for the aged by the Department of Health, Education, and Wel-fare account for three-fourths of this total. During 1965, nearly 3million individuals are estimated to receive such aid. The CivilService Commission provides health benefits to about 81% of the 2.5million Federal civilian employees and an estimated 4.1 million oftheir dependents under the Federal Employees' Health Benefits Act.

A similar program provides benefits for 241,000 retired Federalemployees and their dependents. These payments are made fromtrust revolving funds into which are deposited both agency and em-ployee contributions. Since the health benefits funds are revolvingfunds, with receipts offsetting expenditures, only the net effect ofthese transactions in the trust funds is included in the expendituresfor this category. The Government's contributions amounting to$151 million in 1963, $156 -million in 1964, and $161 million in 1965,are included in the administrative budget figures and are mostly classi-fied in this category. The bulk of the remainder represents paymentsfor care of Federal beneficiaries, principally by the Veterans Admin-istration and the Department of Defense in those cases where Fed-eral facilities are not available.

Every citizen is benefited in one way or another by the healthresearch, training, preventive and community services, and hospitalconstruction activities of the Federal Government. Expendituresfor these activities will total $2.4 billion in 1965, an increase of $501million from 1963. These categories comprise only 44% of the totalhealth expenditures, but they account for 66% of the increase over1963 in health outlays. The amount of increase over 1963 is greatestfor health research and facilities ($233 million and 26%), but thehighest rates of increase will be for construction of health facilities($148 million and 39%) and training ($76 million and 30%). Pre-ventive and community service activities show the largest dollar andpercentage increases ($44 million and 13%). Legislation passed in1963 provides for increased Federal efforts for air pollution control,for assista$ce to schools and to students in medicine and dentistry,

and for programs to combat mental retardation and promote mentalhealth. Other expanding areas include activities relating t6 waterpollution, pesticides, community health, and food and drugs. Thenext several paragraphs discuss the four categories separately.

About two-thirds of the $1.1 billion in Federal expenditures forhealth related research and research facilities are by the Departmentof Health, Education, and Welfare, particularly the National Insti-tutes of Health, which alone account for $631 million. The Depart-ment of Defense, the Atomic Energy Commission, the NationalScience Foundation, and the National Aeronautics and Space Admin-istration also make sizable outlays for health research.

Training, including training for research, accounts for $333 millionin 1965 expenditures. Again, the Public Health Service, and espe-cially the National Institutes of Health, are the major sources,although the Department of Defense also spends significant amounts.

Of the $390 million for preventive and community health services,$269 million will be spent by the Public Health Service, the Food andDrug Administration, and the Welfare Administration. The FederalGovernment's programs of assistance to underdeveloped countries arealso responsible for about $75 million of the outlays and the Depart-ment of Agriculture programs account for most of the remainder.

The Hill-Burton hospital construction program accounts for $204million out of $528 million to be spent in 1965 for construction offacilities other than for research. The Veterans Administration'sexpenditures of $82 million represent the fifth year of that agency's15-year hospital replacement and modernization program. TheDepartment of Defense will also spend $58 million for construction.

Proposed legislation.—Significant health legislation is proposed inthe 1965 budget. New obligational authority of $270 million isrequested to extend the Hill-Burton health facilities constructionprogram, with increased emphasis on modernization of urban hospitals,construction of long-term care facilities for the aged, and improvedplanning of community health facilities. It is expected that $5million of this will be spent in 1965. The 1965 budget includes$11 million of expenditures for extension and improvement of nurseeducation activities. Proposed legislation in the Department ofAgriculture to place meat and poultry inspection on a self-supportingfee basis will reduce Federal expenditures nearly $44 million in 1965,although inspections are expected to increase. Because of this latteritem, expenditures under proposed legislation for 1965 will show a netreduction of $28 million. Proposed appropriations of $295 millionunder new legislation are offset in part by the $47 million reductionin appropriation for the Agriculture program.

Other health proposals, which are covered by the general allowancefor contingencies because the costs would not be large, would extendand broaden the public health training programs, authorize grouppractice facility loans and provide grants for sanitation facilities formigrant agricultural laborers. A proposal to provide hospital insur-ance for persons over 65 through the social security system is alsopending in Congress, but this does not affect the 1965 budget sincethe program will not begin until January 1, 1966.

SPECIAL ANALYSIS H

FEDERAL RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, AND RELATED PROGRAMS

This analysis summarizes Federal administrative budget expendi-tures for research and development.1 The chart below illustrateshow most of the growth in recent years has resulted from the decisionsto undertake a vigorous space program and to maintain a strongnational defense which utilizes the latest products of science andtechnology. In other areas of research and development there hasbeen a slower but steady growth since 1954. Total Federal expendi-tures for research and development will increase from $14.9 billion in1964 to $15.3 billion in 1965, a rise of 3% as compared with 24%between 1963 and 1964. (See table H-l.) The 1965 increase isprimarily attributable to the space programs of NASA.

This year, for the first time, a summary is included showing sepa-rately the totals for research and development (table H-2) and forbasic research (table H-3). These tables illustrate the relativelysmall proportion of funds—less than 30%—spent for research com-pared with the amounts for development, consisting primarily ofengineering and fabrication of launch vehicles and spacecraft forspace exploration and of military hardware for test and evaluation.Decreases in expenditures for development in the Department ofDefense explain the marked slowdown in the growth of Federal fundsfor research and development.

Since science and technology represent such a large proportion oftotal Federal expenditures, it is important to understand the widerange of research and development activities conducted in the ad-vancement of agency missions. Explanations of the contents andtrends of the programs of the agencies with major research and de-velopment activities are provided in the following sections of thisanalysis.

There are also included at the end of this analysis summary databy agency on total Federal support for several selected scientific andtechnical activities of the Federal Government—such as oceanographyand meteorology—which, because of their broad national importance,are coordinated on a governmentwide basis. These activities illus-trate the fact that many agencies need to undertake research in thesame general area if they are to utilize science and technology effec-tively in the achievement of their basic missions. Research on theuse and control of water, as an example, is particularly important tothe missions of the Departments of Agriculture; Commerce; Health,Education, and Welfare; and Interior. No one agency can be expectedto understand or provide for the research required to meet the needs—often the urgent operational demands—of all interested agencies.

4 1 0 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

In these formally coordinated research programs, as well as manyother scientific activities of the Federal Government, steps are beingtaken to improve coordination among the agencies concerned so thatthe research efforts of the scientific community are mutually rein-forcing. The growth of research and development activities in recentyears has created a tremendous problem of communicating scientificresults among scientists and to the agencies which wish to use theresults in some applied form. A major effort is underway to improvesuch communications and to strengthen the means of handling anddisseminating scientific information.

Through its many research and development programs the FederalGovernment now supports more than two-thirds of the total nationalexpenditures for this purpose. Almost two-thirds of Federal fundsfor research and development are expended through contracts withprivate industry. A little over 20 percent are expended for directresearch and development by Federal scientists and engineers inagency laboratories. Only about 13 percent of Federal funds arespent through contracts with and grants to universities and othernonprofit institutions.

In connection with that portion of research and development con-ducted in universities, it is important to recognize the dual impactof research carried out by faculty members assisted by graduatestudents. The interaction of education and research in the universityenvironment contributes materially not only to the advancement ofresearch but also to the training of the scientific and technical man-power needed for the future.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE—MILITARY

The research and development programs of the Department ofDefense include basic and applied research; exploratory, advanced,and engineering development of new components and systems withpossible military applications; and development of weapons systemsapproved for introduction into the operational forces. The principalamounts for these purposes and for the operation of research andtesting facilities of the Department are carried in the budget in theresearch, development, test, and evaluation appropriations. As indi-cated in table H-4, certain supporting amounts are provided in themilitary personnel, procurement, operations and maintenance, andmilitary construction appropriations. Research and developmentrelated to civil defense and military assistance are financed underthose headings.

Of the totals shown in table H-4 for 1965, 3% is for basic scientificresearch with about 23% providing for all research including experi-ments with extensive equipment requirements. Approximately 77%is for development, test, and evaluation of new military weapons andequipments.

Research and development activities decline slightly in 1965, asdevelopment of several major strategic systems nears completion.This reduction is shown in table H-4 above in terms of expenditures.Obligations for research and development activities will also beslightly lower in 1965 than in 1964 as indicated in table H-5 whichalso shows the composition of the programs of the Department bymajor fields of effort.

Amounts for basic and applied research increase slightly in 1965.Development of components, subsystems and weapons includingweapons for conventional and limited war is also expected to increaseas major strategic weapon system development programs like Atlas,Titan, Polaris, and Minuteman decline.

The new tactical fighter aircraft for use by both the Navy and theAir Force as well as smaller aircraft to increase the mobility of theground forces will continue development in 1965. Missile develop-ments include the Army's project for an improved antiballistic missileknown as Nike-X, the Navy's Polaris program, and the Air Forceprograms for an improved version of Minuteman and a new mobilemidrange ballistic missile.

Included in military astronautics are such spacecraft programs asthe manned orbiting laboratory (MOL) as well as basic engine andvehicle development efforts, such as the Titan III multipurposespace booster program. Totals for the military space program aregiven in table H-14. The research and development totals also in-clude substantial and increased effort in the various aspects of anti-submarine warfare research and development and in the developmentof improved combat vehicles for use by our land forces. Provisionis also made for support of Government-owned laboratories and testinstallations such as the Atlantic and Pacific missile ranges.

NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION

All the activities of the National Aeronautics and Space Adminis-tration are classified as research and development for purposes of thisspecial analysis. The National Aeronautics and Space Administra-tion is responsible for the development, test, and operation of space-craft and vehicles for manned and unmanned exploration of space andother nonmilitary applications, and for conducting the broad programsof supporting research and development required for these purposes.In addition, NASA is responsible for conducting research to advanceaircraft technology in support of both military and civilian interests.

The nature and estimated composition of the research and develop-ment programs of NASA are shown on table H-6. The increases in1965 in almost all categories result primarily from the successive largeincreases in NASA appropriations provided in 1963 and 1964 to carryout the expanded space program, principally to provide the facilitiesand initiate the vast new development programs required for the toppriority program to achieve a manned lunar landing by the end of thedecade. A further substantial increase in total NASA appropriationsis not required in 1965, so expenditures are not expected to continueto increase in future years at the high rate shown in 1965 and preced-ing years.

The programs of scientific research in space include unmanned in-vestigations in space with sounding rockets, satellites, and deep space

Major emphasis in 1965 will be on the investigations to beconducted with the large orbiting solar, geophysical, and astronomicalobservatories and on the investigation of Mars with Mariner space-craft. NASA also supports basic research in space sciences at uni-versities and both basic and applied research in fields applicable tospace and aircraft technology at NASA research centers and throughgrants and contracts with universities and industry. NASA's activi-ties classified as development are currently devoted primarily to thedevelopment of spacecraft and launch vehicles required for the mannedlunar landing program. Development is also continuing of satellitesand technology for communications, meteorology, and other spaceapplications, and of nuclear propulsion and other engineering develop-ments to advance space technology.

ATOMIC ENERGY COMMISSION

The Atomic Energy Commission's program in research and develop-ment accounts for more than half of AEC's annual expenditures.

Research programs, which in 1965 constitute approximately 25%of the total conduct of research and development, are conducted in thephysical and biomedical sciences to secure a better understanding ofnuclear structure, nuclear processes, and the effects of nuclear radia-tion on living organisms and systems. Of the total funds programedfor research, about 90% is considered to be basic or fundamentalresearch. The development programs include efforts to improve theprocesses used in the production of special nuclear materials, to de-velop improved types of nuclear weapons, and to improve the meansof obtaining useful power from nuclear reactions.

These programs are carried on in AEC's contractor-operatedlaboratories, in universities, in other private research institutions, andby private industry. In support of its activities for the conduct ofresearch and development, AEC provides laboratory facilities, re-search equipment, and large research machines, such as nuclearreactors and particle accelerators. In 1965 more than one-third ofAEC's expenditures of this sort will be in support of research in con-trast to development.

AEC's reactor development program includes efforts to developeconomic nuclear power reactors, to develop nuclear propulsion forrockets (Project Rover), to develop compact nuclear electric powersources for space and other remote applications, to develop militarypower and propulsion reactors, and to broaden the base of reactortechnology. In 1965 particular emphasis will be given to "breeder"power reactors, which would produce more fissionable material thanthey consume, and to the area of nuclear safety.

The physical research program, which increases in 1965, comprisesresearch in high and low energy physics and in those aspects ofchemistry, materials, and mathematics of particular importance tonuclear science and technology. In addition, there is a continuingprogram to achieve a controlled thermonuclear reaction for possiblegeneration of power. Of special interest in 1965 is AEC's plan toconstruct in the Midwest the world's finest nuclear research reactor.

SPECIAL ANALYSES 415

In addition, AEC conducts programs for research in the biomedicalsciences and for the peaceful uses of isotopes and nuclear explosives.

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, EDUCATION, AND WELFARE

The expenditures for research and development by the Departmentwill increase $42.3 million* in 1965 over an estimated $753.6 millionin 1964. This increase is primarily to strengthen the programs of thePublic Health Service and reflects the additional emphasis being placedon prevention and treatment of mental illness and mental retardation.

In addition to the $38 million spent in 1964, $6 million is includedto expand environmental health activities, primarily to study the long-term effects of pollution on human health.

Expenditures for the National Institutes of Health include in-creases for the new Institutes of Child Health and Human Develop-ment and the Institute of General Medical Sciences.

The Office of Education is expanding its support for research toimprove course materials, strengthen teacher training programs, im-prove teaching of the arts, to help smaller universities and collegesdevelop educational research programs, and to demonstrate researchfindings to school personnel. Expenditures for these programs willtotal $23.8 million in 1965, an increase of $5.6 million over 1964.

NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION

The total expenditures of the National Science Foundation forresearch and research facilities are estimated at $204.0 million in 1965as compared with $175.1 million in 1964 and $142.1 million in 1963.

The 1965 budget will provide increased support for basic researchproject grants; for the Antarctic research program; and for ProjectMohole, a program of research in the geology and geophysics of thedeeper layers of the earth. Support will be continued for U.S. par-ticipation in the Indian Ocean Expedition and in the InternationalYear of the Quiet Sun. Additional funds are estimated in 1965 foruniversity nuclear research facilities, university computing facilities,and specialized biological facilities. Support of the National Centerfor Atmospheric Research and of two astronomy observatories willcontinue, with provision in 1965 for the start of construction of a 150-inch optical telescope at Kitt Peak, Ariz. In addition, the Founda-tion is planning a substantial increase in its program of matchinggrants for facilities related to research and science training.

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE

Expenditures of the Department for the conduct of research anddevelopment are estimated at $187.2 million in 1965 as compared with$181.4 million in 1964 and $162.4 million in 1963. The net increase of$5.8 million in expenditures is composed of a number of expandedresearch activities partly offset by the closing of several low priorityresearch locations. Funds will be available for staffing and operatingsoil and water, entomology, poultry, and other laboratories recentlyauthorized by Congress. Research will be expanded on biologicalcontrols, on nonchemical control methods, on the effects of pesticideson animals, on pesticide residues in soils, on forest tree genetics, andon other measures to avoid or minimize pesticide hazards.

Additional funds will be available to continue the forest surveyand research on forest land management, including watershed studies.Wood products research will be expanded and an addition to theForest Products Laboratory in Madison, Wis., will be started. Stepswill be taken to implement the Department's program in food andnutrition research. Construction funds will be available to modernizeand rehabilitate portions of the National Agricultural Research Centerat Beltsville, Md., and to construct a new facility at Fort Collins,Colo., to replace temporary buildings; $1.4 million additional will beavailable for institutional-type grants to the agricultural experimentstations at the land-grant universities.

Funds are being requested for the construction of the NationalAgricultural Library at Beltsville, Md. Planning money was madeavailable in 1964.

Research projects overseas financed in excess currency countriesunder Public Law 480 will be expanded to include basic studies ofvalue to agriculture.

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

Expenditures of the Department of the Interior for research anddevelopment are estimated at $130.8 million, compared with $116.1million in 1964 and $100.4 million in 1963. About 22% of the 1965amount will be spent on development programs including the con-struction of research facilities; 47% on applied research; and theremainder on basic research. Programs of the Bureau of Mines,Fish and Wildlife Service, Geological Survey, Office of Coal Research,and the Office of Saline Water make a significant contribution to theresearch and development activities of the Department.

The 1965 budget provides for continuing research directed primarilyat improving the conservation and use of water, parks and monu-ments, fish and wildlife, minerals, and other natural resources. In-creased emphasis will be given to the study of the toxicological effectsof pesticides on fish and wildlife; and to the biological aspects of thenational oceanographic program. Geophysical and geochemicalstudies of the upper mantle of the earth's crust that may ultimatelyimprove the technology of locating deep-lying mineral deposits arescheduled for major expansion. Programs to increase the use of andexpand the markets'for coal and coal products will increase. Basicstudies and investigations of groundwater and groundwater character-istics will be expanded; major efforts to discover low cost means ofconverting saline to fresh water will be continued.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

Total expenditures for research and development are estimated at$95 million in 1965, an increase of $9.3 million over 1964 and $28.5million over 1963. Expenditures for research facilities decrease by$1.7 million since construction of the new National Bureau of Stand-ards laboratory complex will be substantially completed by the end ofthe year. The $11 million net expenditure increase for the conductof research will provide modest strengthening of various programs fortransportation, business, and industry. Among these programs are

Page 413: bus_1965

SPECIAL ANALYSES 417

weather prediction and forecasting, experimental nuclear ship opera-tions, textile research, analysis of business conditions, and researchinto transportation planning problems. Improvements are also fore-cast in oceanography and geodesy, Federal research report distribu-tion and reference services, patent classification and search, and sta-tistical measurement of economic and social characteristics.

Two new programs will be undertaken by the National Bureau ofStandards. Approximately half of the $4.2 million expenditure in-crease for these programs will be associated with contractual orcollaborative work. The National Standard Reference Data Systemwill constitute a comprehensive system for the identification, collec-tion and verification of data on the properties and behavior of physicalmaterials. A program of engineering measurements and standards,of principal benefit to consumer-oriented industry, will provide a basisfor collaboration with standardizing bodies and societies in the devel-opment of codes, standards, and methodologies of testing. Expansionis planned particularly for the development of criteria for evaluatingthe performance of industrial products and processes.

FEDERAL AVIATION AGENCY

The Federal Aviation Agency will continue its efforts to developimproved devices for air navigation and air traffic control. In addi-tion funds were appropriated in 1964 to finance a design competitionfor the construction of a civil supersonic transport aircraft.

SELECTED SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL ACTIVITIES OF THE FEDERALGOVERNMENT

The following section presents six scientific and technical activitiesof the Federal Government on a Government-wide basis. In thesefields, and in many other fields, the Office of Science and Technologyin cooperation with the President's Science Advisory Committee andthe Federal Council for Science and Technology is active in improvingthe planning, coordination, and review of Federal research and devel-opment programs. Expenditures for these scientific and technicalactivities are included in the agency expenditures shown elsewhere inthis analysis.

MEDICAL RESEARCH

Federal expenditures for medical and health-related researchactivities are estimated at $1.3 billion in 1965. Nearly two-thirds ofthis amount is expended by the National Institutes of Health, acomponent of the Public Health Service, Department of Health,Education, and Welfare. The seven disease-centered instituteswere augumented in 1963 by two new institutes more oriented towardbasic research and the total human life cycle. The increases in 1965support growth for these two institutes and provide for training ofadditional research personnel, particularly in mental health. Over$30 million of NIH funds will go to industrial firms for testing andevaluation of new chemicals and drugs for the treatment of cancer,cardiovascular diseases and mental illness. Other bureaus of theDepartment of Health, Education, and Welfare are also expanding

Over one-third of the National Science Foundation ex-penditures in this area, and all of the increases in 1965, are for researchfacilities.

METEOROLOGICAL ACTIVITIES

The atmospheric science and weather service programs of Federalagencies include both operational and research and developmentactivities.

Comprehensive arrangements have been established to coordinateatmospheric science and weather programs. Operational activitiesand research and development directed toward improvement ofoperational weather services (other than the development of meteoro-logical satellites and activities involving special military securityconsiderations) are coordinated by the Department of Commerce.

SPECIAL ANALYSES 419

That Department has also recently been made responsible for de-veloping a plan to achieve the maximum integration of both weatherservices and supporting research, consistent with the effective andeconomical accomplishment of agency mission requirements. Inaddition, the Federal Council for Science and Technology, throughits Interdepartmental Committee for Atmospheric Sciences, reviewsand evaluates all research and development in the field of atmosphericsciences, including research supporting weather systems. Furtheradvice regarding these research and development activities is obtainedfrom a panel on atmospheric sciences of the President's ScienceAdvisory Committee.

The introduction of computers, radar, rockets, and satellites havegreatly enhanced capabilities for observing the atmosphere. Prob-lems associated with air pollution, fallout of atomic debris, super-sonic and space flight, and the possibility of weather control havecaused increasing emphasis to be given to the atmospheric sciences.In 1965, funds programed for research and development in this broadfield (which includes studies of the upper atmosphere and the atmos-pheres of other planets as well as more conventional weather phe-nomena) are estimated to total $227 million, an increase of $26 millionover 1963. Of this total, $119 million is for aeronomy—the scienceof the upper atmosphere. Meteorological programs, which are con-cerned with the behavior of the lower atmosphere (generally within100 kilometers of the earth's surface) are described in detail below.

The increase in obligations in 1964 over 1963 for both operationsand research results chiefly from acceleration of meteorological satelliteactivities. In 1965 Weather Bureau obligations for satellite operationswill decrease $3.1 million and NASA obligations for development ofmeteorological satellites by $27 million as its work on the TIROS andNIMBUS spacecraft approaches completion. Exclusive of thesechanges, civil programs show modest growth. Funds for militarymeteorology remain at about $146 million through 1965.

Weather service operations.—The Weather Bureau will place princi-pal emphasis in 1965 on increasing its production of centrally preparedcomputer products to provide field forecast and service units amaximum amount of reliable guidance material on which to baseadvisory services to specific user groups. Concurrently with theexpansion of central data processing facilities there will be a smallreduction in the number of local forecast and briefing outlets main-tained by the Weather Bureau and the Federal Aviation Agency.

The military weather services utilize products of the nationalmeteorological system in order to provide direct support to field forcesthroughout the world. The Air Force and the Navy also performaircraft weather reconnaissance at a cost of approximately $14 millionannually. The amounts reported include the estimated costs ofmaintaining military personnel performing weather activities andfunds for procurement of equipment, estimated to increase slightlyin 1965.

The weather service activities of the Coast Guard and FederalAviation Agency support the national meteorological system. TheCoast Guard finances the operation of multipurpose ocean stationvessels. About 25% of this cost is ascribed to meteorology. TheFederal Aviation Agency provides teletype communications for bothWeather Bureau and military use. In 1965, it will achieve a $0.5million reduction in these costs by leasing teletype lines through jointprocurement contracts with the Department of Defense.

A significant development in the usefulness of satellite observationsresults from the procurement of equipment capable of receiving cloudcover TV pictures directly from an overflying spacecraft. These

Research and development.—Activities reported in the table aboveare directed to increasing understanding of the physical and chemicalproperties, composition, behavior and processes of the lower atmos-phere and to improving the weather service system. Expendituresfor a number of closely related activities concerned with the effects ofthe atmosphere on plants and animals are excluded, as are engineeringprojects to apply meteorological science to specific problems such asballistics and the control of air pollution.1

A $2 million expansion of the atomic energy program is planned in1965 in order to improve understanding of transport and fallout ofradioactive materials. The $3.2 million increase projected in theWeather Bureau research and development program will be directedprincipally to operations research designed to improve the efficiencyof that Bureau's operations. In addition, the Weather Bureau plansto participate in international efforts to improve the observation andexchange of weather data.

OCEANOGRAPHY

The National Oceanographic Program of the Federal Governmentfor 1965 will total $138.1 million. This program is reviewed and co-ordinated on a Government-wide basis by the Interagency Committeeon Oceanography of the Federal Council for Science and Technology.This committee appraises various agency programs to direct efforttoward long-range goals, avoid overlapping work, and support newand priority projects.

SCIENCE INFORMATION

Under the impetus of the Committee on Scientific Information of theFederal Council for Science and Technology, individual agencies areimproving their scientific and technical information programs. Ex-amples of such activity include the recent reorganization of the ArmedServices Technical Information Agency, redesignated the DefenseDocumentation Center, to cope with the increasing demands for itsservices; the establishment by the National Library of Medicine ofMEDLARS, a computerized system designed to speed the access tomedical research literature; the standardization of microforms forGovernment research and development documents; and the establish-ment of a standard descriptive cataloging system for the FederalGovernment. Further, the agencies continue their efforts to obtainmore reliable cost data on science information activities to assist themin formulating more comprehensive program objectives and in de-veloping measures for management improvement.

The budgetary data available for 1965 reflect a recognition thatthe timely flow of scientific and technical information is essentialto the prudent management of the Nation's research and developmentprograms. Increased research and development is planned for scien-tific communication and documentation particularly in the area ofadvanced mechanization techniques. Increases are also programedfor the publication and distribution of documents to coincide with theanticipated growth of published scientific materials and for biblio-graphic and reference services to reflect agency expansion of theseservices and the establishment of new specialized information andevaluation centers. Also reflected in the 1965 budget are certainrecent Federal policy decisions designed to improve the handling ofscientific and technical information. These include the establishmentof a National Standard Reference Data System at the NationalBureau of Standards to provide scientists and engineers with criticallyevaluated numerical data in the physical and engineering sciencesnecessary for the research and development process and the transferto the National Science Foundation of fiscal and managerial responsi-bility for the Science Information Exchange. Budgetary increasesare also programed for the SIE to permit continuation of its expandedcoverage of the physical sciences and for the Office of TechnicalServices of the Department of Commerce to reflect its growing clear-inghouse function for Government research and developmentdocuments.

SPECIAL ANALYSIS I

FEDERAL AID TO STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS

Federal aid to State and local governments in recent decades hasbecome a major factor in the cooperative financing of essential gov-ernment functions. The rudiments of the present system date backabout 100 years to the enactment in 1862 of the Morrill Act, whichestablished land-grant colleges and instituted certain federally re-quired minimum standards characteristic of the present grant-in-aidsystem. Federal aid was later initiated for agriculture, highways,vocational education and rehabilitation, forestry, and public health.In the depression years, Federal aid was extended to meet economicsecurity and other social welfare needs.

In 1965 Federal financial assistance to State and local governmentsunder existing or proposed programs will total an estimated $10.6billion, including net expenditures of $6.5 billion from regular budgetaccounts and $4 billion from the Highway and Unemployment trustfunds. The total includes $188 million under proposed legislation,of which $70 million is for education, $55 million is for youth employ-ment programs, and the remaining $63 million is for community work-training, increased contributions to the District of Columbia, urbantransportation assistance, recreation planning and land acquisition,and hospital construction.

4 2 8 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

The growth of Federal aid programs.—In 10 years, total Federal aidto State and local governments will have more than tripled, risingfrom $3.1 billion in 1955 to an estimated $10.6 billion in 1965. In thesame period, expenditures by State and local governments fromtheir own funds will have more than doubled. Although the numberand variety of Federal aid programs have increased markedly in thelast several decades, more than 60% of total expenditures in 1965 forassistance to State and local governments will be for highway con-struction and public assistance grants. In the decade ending in1965, highway construction grants will have increased more thansixfold, rising from $586 million in 1955 to an estimated $3.6 billionin 1965, the largest increase in Federal aid for any purpose during thisperiod. Grants for public assistance will have doubled since 1955,increasing from $1.4 billion to an estimated $2.8 billion in 1965.

Increasing population and rapid urbanization have led to greaterresponsibility, particularly at the State and local level, for providingessential public services in education, health, housing, urban renewal,highways and public transportation. Continuing economic changehas stimulated programs for safeguarding the economic security ofindividuals. While the major burden of such public services restswith the approximately 90,000 State and local governmental jurisdic-tions, the Federal Government plays a vital role, both through directoperation of programs and by providing financial assistance to Stateand local governments.

The provision of public services can be facilitated through improvedintergovernmental cooperation and coordination concerning revenuesources and expenditure programs. The Advisory Commission onIntergovernmental Relations, established in 1959 for this and otherpurposes, is continuing to make valuable contributions in identifyingareas in which interlevel action could improve the efficiency of theseveral levels of government in our Federal system.

Major program changes for 1965.—For 1965, the total of budgetand trust fund expenditures under existing and proposed programsfor financial assistance to other levels of government is expected to be$391 million more than in 1964 and $1.8 billion more than the actualtotal for 1963. This change reflects both significant increases anddecreases in several of the grant-in-aid programs. The major in-creases over the 1964 estimate are expected to be in the educationalassistance programs which are estimated to rise by $213 million to atotal of $798 million reflecting recently enacted higher and vocationaleducation bills and proposed new legislation; in the housing andcommunity development programs which will rise by $190 million to atotal of $705 million; and in total Federal aid to highway constructionwhich is estimated to increase by $94 million to $3.6 billion. Smallerincreases will occur in other programs including employment service,school lunch, environmental health, and maternal and child welfareprograms.

Significant decreases in 1965 are expected to occur (1) in the distri-bution of surplus food commodities which will decline by $75 million(2) in accelerated public works which will decline by $17 million and(3) in public assistance, where a decline in expenditures of $132million will be offset by a drawing down of cash balances held by theStates, so that obligations in 1965 will continue to increase. Smaller

Page 425: bus_1965

SPECIAL ANALYSES 429

decreases occur in national defense, disaster relief, and communityhealth programs, and in special grants to Alaska.

New legislation proposed for 1965.—Federal aid to State and localgovernments will be affected by several of the recommendations forlegislative change which are provided for in the 1965 budget. Alarge part of the $718 million in total new obligational authorityrequested for education legislation will be for aid to State and localgovernments. Because expenditures lag behind authorizations, how-ever, it is expected that there will be only $70 million in expendituresfor grants-in-aid in 1965. Grants under the Youth EmploymentAct, pending in Congress, are estimated to be $55 million in 1965.

Among the other recommendations for legislative change for whichspecific amounts are included in this analysis are: (1) recreationplanning and land acquisition, $9 million; (2) urban transportationassistance grants, $10 million; (3) increased Federal payments to theDistrict of Columbia, $5 million; (4) hospital construction activities,$5 million; and (5) community work-training programs, $35 million.

Federal-aid expenditures by other agencieswill make up the remaining 26% of the total, with the largest amountsby the Department of Agriculture, 9%; the Housing and HomeFinance Agency, 7%; and the Department of Labor, 5%.

Federal aid in relation to total Federal and State-local outlays.—Estimated Federal aid in 1965 to State and local governments frombudget accounts alone of $6.5 billion will represent approximately7% of total Federal budget expenditures. Total financial aid frombudget and trust accounts of $10.6 billion will represent about 9% ofestimated total Federal cash payments to the public. As a source ofState and local revenue, Federal-aid payments from both trust fundand budget accounts in 1963 was about one-seventh of all generalrevenue available to/ these jurisdictions.

Types of Federal aid.—Federal financial assistance to State and localgovernments takes the form of direct grants-in-aid, shared revenue,and net loans and repayable advances. Grants to States and localitiesare the most significant type of Federal aid. In 1965, it is estimatedthat $10.2 billion or 96% of total expenditures for all three types ofaid will take the form of grants-in-aid. Shared revenue will accountfor $183 million, or 1.7%, and net loans and repayable advances,$203 million, or 1.9% of the grand total. Apart from these types ofFederal aid, many other Federal expenditures which are not includedin this analysis, such as contractual payments or grants to publicinstitutions for research and training in special fields, affect thefinances of State and local governments.

SPECIAL ANALYSIS J

PRINCIPAL FEDERAL STATISTICAL PROGRAMS

This analysis summarizes the principal statistical programs of theFederal Government in the 1965 budget which provide general-purposestatistical information for the use of the Government and the public.The programs are presented in two categories: current and periodic.Fiscal 1965 recommendations for current programs, reflecting con-tinuing year-to-year statistical activity in the various agencies, pro-vide for a total of $94.3 million, an increase of $9.1 million over theamount available for 1964. Recommendations for periodic pro-grams—the large scale census-type surveys characteristically takenonce or twice a decade—amount to $26.5 million in obligationsfor 1965.

The continuing objectives of the Federal statistical system are toprovide accurate, comprehensive, and timely data needed for theoperations of the Government, to furnish the public with informationabout the functioning of the economy and the welfare of the people, andto insure efficient utilization of Government resources and minimumburden on respondents. The attainment of these objectives requirescontinuous evaluation of the needs for statistical information. Theprograms included in this budget reflect the most urgent of the specificneeds for data identified by Government agencies and emphasizedin appraisals of the adequacy of existing economic and social statisticsby the Joint Economic Committee of the Congress, the Subcommitteeon Census and Government Statistics of the House Committee onPost Office and Civil Service, the President's Committee To AppraiseEmployment and Unemployment Statistics and other groups repre-senting business, labor, and research organizations.

The functions of collection, processing, and analysis of current gen-eral-purpose statistical information are often closely related to otheragency objectives. To indicate the interrelationships of the statisticalprograms carried out by different agencies and to aid in evaluating theGovernment's overall statistical system, the significant components ofcurrent Federal statistical activity are brought together and classifiedby broad subject areas in this special analysis. These areas and theamounts involved are summarized in table J - l .

The current statistical programs included in this analysis representthe entire programs of some agencies but only that portion of theprograms of other agencies constituting general purpose statisticalactivity. Some statistical activity is not included.

The periodic statistical programs for which funds are provided in1965 to the Bureau of the Census include the 1963 economic censuses,the 1964 Census of Agriculture, initial phases of the national housinginventory and preparatory work on the 1970 censuses. In addition,modest provision is made for the Census Bureau's program to developand modernize automatic data handling equipment.

The agencies and amounts involved in botn the current and periodicstatistical programs included in this analysis are shown in table J-2.

CURRENT PROGRAMS

Labor statistics.—Expansion of statistical investigation in the fieldof manpower and employment statistics was started last year inresponse to the recommendations of the President's Committee ToAppraise Employment and Unemployment Statistics. In 1965, pro-vision is made to expand the work on sharpening labor force conceptsinitiated in 1964 with the establishment of a special sample of house-holds; to study factors affecting labor force participation; to investigatemethods of strengthening State and area manpower estimates; and toexpand statistics on hours and earnings by industry and area. Fundsare also provided for enlarging and improving the sample for thenational professional, administrative and technical salary survey.

An increase for the National Science Foundation will allow addi-tional scientific manpower studies to be undertaken, with particularemphasis on estimating the demand for scientists of various types.

Demographic and social statistics.—Increases are recommended inthis area to enable the Bureau of the Census to expand its programof current population estimates for metropolitan areas started lastyear and to conduct basic work on the methodology of populationestimates. Funds are provided for the National Center for HealthStatistics to enable the agency to continue its development of healthrecord surveys and to initiate improvements in the collection of vitalstatistics. Funds are also recommended to permit a substantial im-provement of the basic statistical program of the Office of Educationincluding provision for pilot projects to develop a system for obtaininguniform or compatible basic records from local areas to allow directcomputer processing and for strengthening the staff for planning,research, and training.

Production and distribution statistics,—A substantial part of theincrease for this activity supports the program to improve the cropand livestock estimates initiated in 1961, and for continuation of theprogram of expanded cattle-on-feed statistics started in 1964. In-creases are provided to the Bureau of the Census to update the sampleof stores reporting retail trade statistics, to initiate a series on retailinventories, and to improve export statistics.

Construction and housing statistics.—Most of the increase recom-mended in this area is for the Housing and Home Finance Agency tostrengthen and expand its statistical and research programs, primarilyin the field of basic housing market data. Additional funds areprovided for the Census Bureau to permit direct measurement ofconstruction projects in the western States.

National income and business financial accounts.—A major part ofthe increase in this area is for the Department of Commerce to extendand improve the basic information and estimates of the nationaleconomic accounts. Particular emphasis is placed on the need tomeet an intensified demand for new information on the U.S. balanceof payments. Projects include the strengthening of the data andanalysis on international investments and transactions, improved esti-mates for the trade and service industries, extension of the detail forincome size distributions, and improvement in statistical techniquesfor analysis of economic trends. Funds are also provided to theInternal Revenue Service to permit greater utilization in tax admin-istration and other uses of statistics developed from tax returns andto the Securities and Exchange Commission for improvement of sta-tistics on securities markets operations.

PERIODIC PROGRAMS

Major censuses for which funds are included in this budget are the1963 economic censuses and the 1964 Census of Agriculture. In 1965,work on the economic censuses covering manufacturing and mineralindustries, retail, wholesale and service trades, and selected areas oftransportation activity will consist primarily of the tabulation andpreparation of data for publication. The field enumeration of theCensus of Agriculture, which will occur in the fall of 1964 after com-pletion of the 1964 harvest, represents the major portion of theexpenditure in the taking of this census. Provision is also made forthe initial phases of a National Housing Inventory to be taken in fiscal1966 and on continuation of preparatory work on procedures for use intaking the 1970 population and housing censuses. In addition, fundsare recommended to carry on the Census Bureau's program to developand modernize automatic data handling equipment.

FOREIGN CURRENCY AVAILABILITIES AND USES

Many agencies of the Government are engaged in activities through-out the world which involve payments in foreign currencies. Fromsome governmental activities, particularly the sale on concessionalterms of surplus agricultural commodities, foreign currencies accrueto the Government without purchase with dollars. This analysispresents in summary form data on foreign currency availabilities anduses.

Most currencies accrue to the credit of the United States becauseof past or current international agreements authorized under severallaws. In most cases, these international agreements deal (1) withsales arrangements, wherein commodities (usually surplus agri-cultural commodities) are sold to foreign purchasers for local curren-cies, or (2) with loans, wherein dollars or foreign currencies themselvesare lent to foreign borrowers and may be repaid in the currency ofthe borrower. Currencies also become available in much smalleramounts under other kinds of international agreements and from thenormal operations of the U.S. Government abroad.

Foreign currency availabilities are divided in table K-l betweenthose available for U.S. uses and those available for country uses. Inboth cases the currencies belong to this Government and are kept inTreasury accounts or those of other Government agencies. Thecountry use currencies, however, are committed by the terms of theinternational agreements under which they are received to be usedon a loan or grant basis for mutually beneficial purposes in the countryby agreement with its government. U.S. use currencies, on the otherhand, are available for the purposes of U.S. agencies.

SPECIAL ANALYSES 441

U.S. use currencies are further divided between those which areexcess and those which are nonexcess. The excess currencies arethose of which the Treasury has found (after reviewing the amountsof currency on hand, prospective receipts for U.S. uses, and pro-spective requirements) the supply to be great enough to more thancover the demand for the next 2 or 3 years. For 1965, a prospectiveexcess condition is anticipated in Burma, India, Israel, Pakistan,Poland, United Arab Republic (Egypt), and Yugoslavia. In additionto these countries, Indonesia and Syria were designated as excesscurrency countries during 1963, and Indonesia during 1964.

Some nonexcess U.S. use currencies are restricted by conditionswhich have been placed on their use by international agreement.Although the policy in recent years has been to avoid such restrictions,some restricted currencies under old agreements are still on hand.

Up until December 31, 1963, some U.S. use currencies on hand werealso restricted by administrative action, authorized by law, reservingcurrencies for use by specific programs. Section 508 of Public Law88-257 authorizes the Treasury to maintain currencies reserved byadministrative action in "unfunded accounts." The equivalent ofapproximately $112 million of previously reserved currencies wasmade available for current unrestricted use, to be replaced whenneeded for the purpose for which they were reserved. Estimatesfor 1965 assume that this provision will be continued.

Limits on uses of foreign currencies.—International agreements, andin many cases the nature of the economy on which they are a claim,still restrict the use of the greater part of currencies accruing to thecredit of the United States.

First, sales of agricultural commodities, through which most of thecurrencies are acquired, are often largely concessional. In thesetransactions the international financial position of the purchasingcountry is usually such that it must minimize the real cost of the salesto itself in terms of export of its resources. As a result, large amountsof currencies acquired by the United States from the sale of farmcommodities are restricted by the sales agreement so they can onlybe loaned or granted back to the buying country.

Second, virtually all of the> currencies are inconvertible under thelaws and regulations of the purchasing countries. This means theycannot be freely used to buy goods in third countries. Neither canthey be exchanged for another currency which we may be able to use.

Need for foreign currencies.—Many agencies of the U.S. Govern-ment carry on activities overseas in which foreign currencies areneeded. As indicated in table K-2, the need for foreign currenciesin U.S. operations often does not correspond to their availability ona country-by-country basis. A strong effort is made at the time thatcommodity sales agreements are negotiated to obtain the maximumamount for U.S. uses to which the other government will agree, inthose countries in which we have an insufficient supply of currencies.Despite this, in the normal course of its worldwide operations theGovernment must purchase large amounts of the currencies of manycountries while at the same time it is accumulating large inconvertiblebalances of others.

442 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

Procedure for use of foreign currencies.—Normally, when an agencyrequires foreign currencies to carry out its activities, the disbursingofficer must, by Treasury regulation, use currencies owned by theU.S. Government if they are available. If the particular foreigncurrencies required are not available, they must be purchased throughbanking channels. Expenditures of U.S. owned currencies areordinarily charged to appropriations at the rate at which currenciescould be obtained for official U.S. disbursements. Thus foreigncurrency expenditures are reported on a comparable basis whetherthey are owned by the United States or obtained from commercialsources.

U.S. use currencies expended for agency programs are generallyreflected in Treasury and agency accounts and in the budget as dollarexpenditures as they are used, with a corresponding credit to mis-cellaneous receipts or to the fund (e.g., Commodity Credit Corpora-tion) which financed the transaction from which the currency derived.

SPECIAL ANALYSIS L

INTERNATIONAL TRANSACTIONS OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

As part of a wide range of efforts to reduce the continuing deficits inthe U.S. balance of international payments, the Federal Governmenthas instituted a special program to minimize the adverse effects of itsactivities on the balance of payments. Starting in August 1962, theBureau of the Budget established a system to review periodically theinternational transactions of Federal agencies. Under this system,agencies with substantial receipts or payments abroad prepare statis-tical estimates of their international transactions twice each year.These estimates are evaluated to determine whether all possibleactions are being taken to reduce payments and increase receipts.

Since emphasis is placed on using this system as a management tool,forward estimates do not merely project current trends or programs,but rather reflect all possible efforts, consistent .with the nationalinterest, to minimize payments and to maximize receipts from othercountries.

This special analysis presents a summary of the international trans-actions of the Federal Government for 1963-65 based on estimatesmade in September 1963 revised where necessary for comparabilitywith the 1965 budget.

Major trends.—Estimated Federal payments abroad are expectedto decline from the 1963 level of about $5 billion to $4.4 billion in1965.

Receipts from abroad from regular transactions are expected toremain at about the 1963 level of $2.2 billion in 1964, but to increase to$2.4 billion in 1965. (These receipts figures do not include specialtransactions—prepayments of loans, certain sales of securities andadvances for military sales.)

These payments and receipts produce an estimated decline in thenet Federal payments abroad of about $800 million between 1963 and1965, excluding special transactions.

Payments.—The largest reductions in payments over the 2-yearperiod are estimated for the Department of Defense, the Agency forInternational Development, and the Atomic Energy Commission.

The Department of Defense estimates reflect the Department'sefforts to achieve savings—without reductions in our military capabili-ties overseas—through a broad range of measures including: (1) avoluntary savings program for personnel overseas; (2) a program in-creasingly to replace procurement overseas with procurement in theUnited States; (3) reductions in overseas construction programs andcontractual services; (4) reduction in employment of foreign nationalsat overseas installations; and (5) reduction in the number of supplyinstallations in Western Europe.

4 4 8 THE BUDGET FOH FISCAL YEAR 1965

The Department of Defense will also continue its intensive world-wide effort to encourage other countries to purchase a portion of theirmilitary equipment in the United States to help offset our defenseexpenditures abroad.

The reduction in payments estimated for the Agency for Inter-national Development results from the Agency's efforts to insure that,wherever possible, funds loaned or granted abroad are tied directly toprocurement in the United States. Except for limited procurementin developing countries, it is now the Agency's general policy to pro-hibit the purchase abroad of any goods with foreign economic as-sistance funds.

The major reason for the estimated decline in Atomic EnergyCommission payments is a drop in overseas procurement of uraniumconcentrates.

A substantial decrease is also estimated for the Department ofState, primarily reflecting decreased purchases of U.N. bonds. Vet-erans Administration payments abroad, mostly for compensation andpensions, are expected to decline slightly.

Both the Treasury Department and the Department of Health,Education, and Welfare are estimated to make increased paymentsoverseas between 1963 and 1965. In both cases, these anticipatedincreases result from obligations not readily subject to administrativecontrols. Estimated increases for the Department of Health, Edu-cation, and Welfare, for example, result from increased social securitybenefit payments being made to recipients residing overseas. In thecase of the Treasury, the increases are largely accounted for by interestpayments on the public debt and encashments of non-interest-bearingnotes representing parts of past contributions to international lendingorganizations. (Contributions to these organizations often consistof non-interest-bearing notes which are not included as internationaltransactions until they are cashed.)

Receipts.—The estimated increase in receipts over the 1963-65period is largely accounted for by transactions of the Export-ImportBank and the Agency for International Development.

Special transactions—which are not included in the totals just dis-cussed—were the source of large additional receipts in 1963. Thesereceipts result from transactions, involving advances or loans, and gen-erally with foreign governments or official monetary authorities, whichwould not occur as part of ihe regular operations of U.S. Governmentagencies. They include: (1) advance payments by foreign govern-ments for military exports; (2) sales of nonmarketable, medium-termsecurities by the Treasury Department to foreign central banks;(3) sales of certain participation certificates by the Export-ImportBank; and (4) repayments by foreign governments of loans beforethey are due. Except for advances on military exports, they are notestimated for future years.

Geographical distribution.—Table L-3 shows a distribution ofreceipts and payments by major geographic area. Approximately17% of the decline estimated in total payments between 1963 and1965 is accounted for by transactions with Western Europe.

Receipts from Western Europe (excluding special transactions, mostof which are with Western Europe) are estimated to remain at approxi-mately the same level from 1963 to 1965.

Payments by type of transaction.—An analysis of payments bytype of transactions indicates that between 1963 and 1965 the reduc-tions in Federal payments abroad are expected to be primarily in grants,loans, and purchases of goods and services. For the most part,the procurement reductions reflect the substitution of purchases inthe United States for those overseas.

4 5 0 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1965

Relation to the budget.—Reports on international transactionsdo not flow directly from the accounting system used for the adminis-trative budget or trust funds. They are estimated separately toshow all Government receipts or payments which enter the balanceof payments. The major differences between data on internationaltransactions and administrative budget and trust totals are:

1. Coverage.—Data on international transactions exclude all budgetand trust transactions that are within the United States; they includedebt transactions entering the balance of payments which are excludedfrom budget and trust figures. For example, the budget includesall expenditures for foreign assistance and Department of Defenseprocurement, while such payments are included as internationaltransactions only to the extent that the procurement is estimated totake place abroad.

2. Estimated basis of international transactions.—No separate de-tailed accounting system has been established for international trans-actions comparable to that which supports administrative budgetand trust fund totals. In many cases it is necessary to estimate theoverseas components of transactions, since these components are notshown directly by accounting data. For example, budget accountsprovide precise data on the gross amount of salaries paid in a givenoverseas area, but do not identify the amount actually spent overseasby employees—which is the relevant statistic for balance of paymentspurposes. Thus, for past years, international transactions are acombination of actual accounting reports and estimates.

3. Timing.—International transactions are recorded at the timewhen they are known or estimated to affect the balance of payments.The time at which a given international transaction is counted may,therefore, vary considerably from the time at which it is shown in thebudget and trust fund accounts. For example, in some cases the U.S.Government makes contributions to international organizations in theform of non-interest-bearing notes. These notes are shown as budgetexpenditures when issued, but as international payments only whenthey are cashed.

Relationship to balance of payments statistics.—Data onFederal receipts and payments abroad are also reflected in the balanceof payments statistics published by the Department of Commerce.However, as with the administrative budget, the balance of paymentsstatistics are designed for purposes which are different from those forwhich the Government agency estimates and reports on internationaltransactions have been established. Balance of payments datameet the needs of economic analysis and for the measurement ofinternational flows of real resources and money, while agency reportson international transactions serve as both a means of estimatingand a management tool for decreasing the balance of paymentscosts of Federal Government programs. Reflecting the different usesof these two bodies of data, there are the following differences betweenbalance of payments statistics and the reports on Federal transactionscovered in this analysis:

1. Classification.—The reports use classifications by agency andby types of expenditures which are quite different from the broadfunctional classifications used for the balance of payments statistics.

2. Attribution.—Transactions conducted by private businesses, inwhich the Federal Government is involved, are treated as private in

the balance of payments statistics. In order to emphasize manage-ment decisions, agency reports permit the attribution of some suchtransactions to the Federal Government. For example, military goodsmay be sold to foreign governments directly by private companies,although the sales are encouraged and sponsored by the Depart-ment of Defense. In the balance of payments, such sales wouldbe reported as private receipts for exports. However, for the pur-pose of the Defense Department's estimates on international trans-actions, some of them are considered Government receipts.

3. Other.—Further differences between the two sets of data involvethe timing of certain transactions, the reporting of foreign currencies,and minor differences in coverage of transactions which are con-sidered "foreign."

The balance of payments statistics do not include a separate identi-fiable category on total Federal receipts or payments. However,because of the recent interest in the relationship between U.S. Gov-ernment grants and loans abroad and the balance of payments, theDepartment of Commerce has included estimates indicating theamount of Government loans and grants which involve direct pay-ments to foreign accounts, as distinguished from those which involveno direct dollar outflow from the United States. Agencies reportsimilar data for their estimates on international transactions. Areconciliation between the two sets of data, shown in table L-5,illustrates the kinds of differences which exist between the agencyreports and estimates on international transactions and the Depart-ment of Commerce balance of payments statistics.

Note.—A classification of administrative budget receipts and expenditures for the period 1954 to1965, inclusive, is found in table 17 (page 456) and table 18 (page 457), respectively. The change inthe public debt from year to year is not necessarily the same as the administrative budget surplusor deficit. It reflects also changes in the Government's cash on hand, and the use of corporate debtand investment transactions by certain Government enterprises.

Certain interfund transactions are excluded from administrative budget receipts and expendituresstarting in 1932. For years prior to 1932 the amounts of such transactions are not significant.

Refunds of receipts are excluded from administrative budget receipts and expenditures startingin 1913; comparable data are not available for prior years.
