THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
May 1, 1975
The President of the Senate
Sir:
I ask the Congress to consider a proposed sup-
plemental appropriation for the fiscal year 1975 in the
amount of $7,000,000 for the Department of State.
The details of this proposal are set forth in the
enclosed letter from the Director of the Office of
Management and Budget, with whose comments and obser-
vations I concur.
Respectfully,
Herold R. 7d
Estimate No.
94th Congress, 1st Session
EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON, D.C. 20503
May 1, 1975
The President
The White House
Sir:
I have the honor to submit for your consideration a
proposed supplemental appropriation for the fiscal year
1975 in the amount of $7,000,000 for the Department of
State, as follows:
ADMINISTRATION OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS
Acquisition, Operation, and Maintenance of Buildings Abroad
(Special Foreign Currency Program)
For an additional amount for "Acquisition, operation,
and maintenance of buildings abroad (special foreign
currency program)" $7,000,000, to remain available
until expended: Provided, That this appropriation shall
be available only upon the enactment into law of H.R.
4510 or equivalent legislation.
This proposed supplemental appropriation is for the
acquisition of properties in Cairo for use as United
States Government offices and official residences. Some
of the properties would be acquired under a recent
exchange agreement with the Government of the Arab
Republic of Egypt. The appropriation would utilize
Egyptian currency owned by and excess to the normal
requirements of the United States.
I have carefully reviewed the proposal for appro-
priations contained in this document and am satisfied
that this request is necessary at this time. I recommend,
therefore, that this proposal be transmitted to the Congress.
Respectfully,
Justify
