MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT:
In connection with Mr. Crump's #
visit, the President desired to be
reminded of Director Harold Smith's
troubles because of Senator McKellar's
opposition to appropriations for the
support of the Bureau of the Budget
itself. The bill has now gone to
conference from the Senate with 25%
cut below appropriations embodied
in the bill as passed by the House.
The Director fears that such a
cut will seriously hamper essential
activities of his office.
