APPENDIX

FOREWORD

This is one of a group of four documents which relate to the budget for 1965. The Budget of the United States Government, 1965, is a compact volume in a page size similar to that of an ordinary book. It contains the Budget Message of the President, summary tables and statistical information, and various special analyses.

The Budget of the United States Government, 1965-Appendix contains the text of appropriation estimates proposed for the consideration of the Congress together with specific reference materials on the various appropriations

and funds. The contents of this volume are further explained at the beginning of each of its four parts.

The Budget of the United States Government, 1965-The District of Columbia is a volume which relates specifically to the estimates for the municipal government of the District of Columbia.

In addition, a pamphlet type of publication, The Federal Budget in Brief, 1965, is available for those who wish a much more brief presentation than any of the three official volumes.

(4) a schedule of object classification. An exception occurs in the case of certain permanent appropriations and older appropriation accounts on which only a residual balance remains; such accounts of a bureau or independent agency are often combined into a single presentation instead of having separate schedules. Where the obligations fall in a single object class, the classification is identified in the program and financing schedule, rather than in

a separate schedule.

For revolving funds, there are usually three additional schedules covering (5) a summary of sources and application of funds; (6) revenue, expense, and retained earnings; and (7) financial condition.

The basic schedules usually exclude supplemental estimates which it is expected will be transmitted to Congress later, for 1964 and 1965; these usually are covered by a separate, brief schedule of program and financing, without appropriation language. However, the 1964 column of the basic schedules include (and identify) certain supplemental estimates already pending before Congress, and supplementals required in a few accounts to meet costs of the Uniformed Services Pay Act of 1963.

APPROPRIATION LANGUAGE

The language proposed for inclusion in the 1965 appropriation acts is printed at the head of each item requiring action by Congress, except for those items which are not formally recommended at this time but will be proposed for separate transmittal. The language of the 1964 appropriation acts is used as a base. The text used in the 1964 appropriation acts is printed in roman type. Italic type indicates proposed new language. Brackets enclose material which it is proposed to omit, as in this example:
