EMPLOYEE AND RELOCATION HOUSING AND FACILITIES
The continuing increase in the level of construction program of the Corps of Engineers and the Bureau of Reclamation in recent years is bringing into greater significance the cost of employee housing and of relocation of persons and facilities displaced by projects. In an effort to provide some uniformity in an approach to these problems the Committee is adopting the standards for employee housing which have been developed for other agencies of the Department of the Interior and the Forest Service as set out in House Report 233 on the Interior and Related Agencies Appropriation Bill, 1962.
Hereafter the employee housing in the United States under both the Bureau of Reclamation program and the Corps of Engineers program, excluding Alaska, shall be limited to a unit cost of 500,000 are advertised only to those bidders who qualify as small businesses. Under this program the Corps and the Bureau have been directed not only to limit contracts of 500,000 limit.
It is obvious that the application of this program to the work of the Corps of Engineers and the Bureau of Reclamation could result in increased costs. Artificially limiting the number of bidders on contracts would normally result in higher bids over a period of time than if there were unlimited competition in the bidding. In addition the administrative costs in execution of a program of this natureEpson Perfection 4870 Photo, 400 dpi, 8 bit, 1,783,797 byte

CHANGES IN BUDGETED ITEMS
Weapons Program.-The increase of 432,845,000. The committee has made a reduction of 1,885,000 above fiscal year 1961 appropriation and over 2,834,000 in the budget estimate of 84,841,000 is recommended in the bill. This is an increase for these activities of 17,771,000 over the 1960 level. No reduction is proposed for the bugeted programs for high energy physics and controlled thermo-nuclear power research activities.
Civilian Application of Isotopes and Nuclear Explosives.-The budget estimate of 1,300,000. The balance of 20,520,000
Estimate, 1962 38,203,000
Recommended, 1962 38,203,000
Comparison:
Appropriation, 1961 +17,683,000
Recommended, 1962
The increase above the 1961 program is accounted for primarily by the fact that the Melton Hill Dam and Reservoir and the new lock at Wheeler Dam are moving into the heaviest construction years. In addition the amount provided includes 50,000,000 to the Treasury during fiscal year 1962.Epson Perfection 4870 Photo, 400 dpi, 8 bit, 1,321,599 byte

fact, the Central Valley Project operation private companies were able to purchase even more power than the combined requirements of the public agencies. The fundamental issue at stake is the Democratic Party principle of preventing private profit at public expense. We urge you to join with us in following the leadership of Chairman Clarence Cannon.
