The Progress of Administrative Reorganization in the Seventy-Fifth Congress

Abstract

Congress adjourned on August 21 without enacting any part of the program for administrative reorganization and management of the federal government recommended by the President's Committee on Administrative Management, and endorsed by the President in a message to Congress on January 12. The program was sidetracked until late in the session by the court reform proposal. While no action was taken, all of the major recommendations of the Committee have been incorporated in bills which have been reported out for passage in both houses, and two bills were passed by the House. The other bills are on the calendar for consideration at the next session, and will not have to go through the original committee stage again. Presumably these measures will receive early attention when Congress meets, and it seems probable that a large part of the program will become law.
