It will be appreciated if you will give this matter your consideration and make any amendments that may be required by the policy of the Bureau of the Budget. It is expected that the matter of the Interior Department appropriations for the fiscal year 1925 will be before the Committee on Appropriations of the Senate at an early date, at which time there will be an opportunity to have the proposed provisions considered as an amendment to the appropriation bill. Respectfully, E. C. FINNEY, First Assistant Secretary and Budget Officer. (Thereupon, at 4 o'clock p. m., the subcommittee adjourned, subject to the call of the chairman.) |
