Mr. SHIPLEY. Chief, that completes your presentation.
Thank you.

CAPITOL GUIDE SERVICE

Mr. HARDING. The only other area we have to ask appropriations for is for one of the joint activities with the Capitol Guide Service. I am a little bit embarrassed. In fact, I am a great deal embarrassed because the figures we prepared for the committee

Mr. SHIPLEY. What page is that?

Mr. HARDING. It is on page 112 of the committee print

Mr. COLLEY. It is not in the Clerk's testimony.

Mr. HARDING. If I may, I would like to provide these figures for the record.

Mr. HARDING. The reason I am embarrassed, the figures provided to us were provided by the Senate Finance office and they unfortunately include positions which haven't been authorized. When the positions are authorized I will be back to you for them but that will only be after Chairman Lucien Nedzi and his Subcommittee of House Administration have fully authorized it. Frankly, I think they jumped the gun when they included them in the dollar amounts. Therefore, I am not requesting those figures at this time. I would think by the time this bill is acted on by the Senate, they will be fully authorized by House Administration. I will submit the appropriate information to you, at that time Mr. Chairman.

Mr. SHIPLEY. Are they temporary positions?

Mr. HARDING. They are asking for four permanent and six temporary posts. Actually, they share the task of offering assistance to disabled visitors. I don't downplay the merit of their request, it is just premature.

I would suggest for the consideration of the committee that on the one page I have submitted, we limit our request to that which is duly authorized and fund those items at this time and keep the others in abeyance until authorization.

Mr. SHIPLEY. All right. Fine.

Mr. HARDING. With that, Mr. Chairman, I believe that covers my areas, unless you have any further questions.

Mr. SHIPLEY. Do you have any questions?

Mr. BENJAMIN. No.

Mr. SHIPLEY. I think probably we may as well quit and come back at 1 o'clock.

The committee will stand adjourned until 1 o'clock.

[Whereupon, at 12 noon, the subcommittee was adjourned to reconvene at 1 p.m.]

AFTERNOON SESSION

Mr. SHIPLEY. The committee will come to order.

We will continue the hearing.

Mr. Henshaw, why don't you go ahead?

OFFICE OF THE DOORKEEPER

Mr. HENSHAW. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

The next office is the Office of the Doorkeeper, which is on page 27-28 of the Subcommittee Print.

For salaries, including overtime for the Publications and Distribution service, for the Office of the Doorkeeper, $4,193,000.

Mr. Chairman, in order to regulate the budget more closely, the overtime, formerly carried in "Allowances and Expenses", has been incorporated under the appropriate heading in fiscal year 1979. The Doorkeeper of the House, Mr. James T. Molloy, is here to discuss with the Subcommittee his office and its affiliated operations.

Mr. Chairman, I am sure you will wish Mr. Molloy to cover all of the items with which he is concerned. They are as follows, with the corresponding page numbers in my statement and Subcommittee Print.
