The details of this proposal are set forth in the enclosed letter from the Director of the Office of Management and Budget. I concur with his comments and observations. Respectfully, EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT UNITED OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET WASHINGTON. D.C. 20503 September 28, 1976 The President The White House Sir: I have the honor to submit for your consideration proposed supplemental appropriations for the fiscal year 1977 in the amount of $40,000,000 for the Department of Agriculture. Department of Agriculture Federal Crop Insurance Corporation Subscription to Capital Stock To enable the Secretary of the Treasury to subscribe and pay for capital stock of the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation, as provided in section 504 of the Federal Crop Insurance Act (7 U.S.C. 1504), $40,000,000. The proposed supplemental appropriation will enable the Secretary of Treasury to subscribe and pay for capital stock of the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation. The additional capital stock is proposed for 1977 to provide the Corporation with adequate working capital to meet its current financial responsibilities.
