10 Identification code Under existing legislation, 1965.-A supplemental appropriation of $550 thousand is anticipated in order to provide the Federal share needed to finance the cooperative 05-04-1404-0-1-355 screwworm eradication program in Texas, New Mexico, and States to the north and east. Funds are needed primarily to maintain an effective barrier zone of sterile screwworm flies in northern Mexico and along the international boundary through June 30, 1965. The artificial barrier zone of sterile screwworm flies requires the continuous production, irradiation and release of vast quantities of screwworm flies over a large area. Any cessation of program operations would immediately permit the migration of screwworms into screwworm-freed areas of the United States where self-perpetuating native fly populations would be reestablished. Under proposed legislation, 1966.-A reduction of $35,705 thousand is anticipated for 1966 under legislation being proposed to place meat inspection on a selfsupporting basis. In addition, the legislation would require an appropriation of $8.4 million for establishing a revolving fund for reimbursement by meatpacking plants for inspection services rendered.

This research serves to develop new foreign markets and to expand existing markets for agricultural commodities, including cotton, dairy products, fats and oils, grain, feed, livestock and meat, poultry, fruits and vegetables, and tobacco. It also provides for supplementary research on farm, forest, marketing, utilization, agricultural economics, and human nutrition problems, and for translations of foreign language scientific publications. The appropriation proposed for 1966 will be used to purchase only those currencies determined to be excess to the normal requirements of the United States. Total estimated cost in U.S. dollars (charged to regular appropriations) for the initiation and supervision of projects in 1966 is $325 thousand.
