What the Hoover Report
Means to You
What the Hoover Commission j quickly detected and adjusted J3J

Committee is

on Organization of the Executive
Branch of the Government
was created by unanimous
action of Congress in July, 19* T auditors_ in the field at far lees

At the e suggestion gg of President
Truman, former President Herbert
Hoover was named chairman
with Secretary of State
Acheeon as vice chairman.
The Commission utilized 24 research
committees illed "task
forces" composed of 300 nationally
noted specialists. After two
years of exhaustive study the
Commission submitted to Congress
a specific blueprint to eliminate
duplication, overlapping,
and waste while actually improving
government service. This
ng ge
blueprint would make possible
savings of $3 tp $5 billions a year.
The. bipartisan Citizens Committee
for the Hoover Report, a
nonprofit organization, was
created to rally public support
for the Commission's recommendations.
Headed by Dr. Robert L.
John-oon, president of Temple
University, it maintains headquarters

Federal Budgeting end
Accounting
When it investigated federal
budgeting and accounting procedures,
the Hoover Commission
found that the whole concept of
budgeting was totally inadequate,
antiquated and without plan.
The present budget, for example,
is a document of some
.500,000 words ''dealing with
rums in a jumble that means lesa
Jian nothing even to the most
istute at figures."
Since the Commission's Report
was submitted, disclosing thp
glaring deficiencies in budgeting,
federal fiscal history haa been
made. The basic changes in the
federal budget process recommended
by the Commissioners
been adopted • in the 1951
Budget which the President presented
to the Congress in January
of this year.
Generally the new plan stresses
the achievement of objectives
rather than the means by which
those goals are attained. Thus
the new type of budget will eventually
tell how much it costs, oti
the average, to service a single
Veteran's life insurance policy or
to operate and maintain, in the
aggregate, such, civilian airway
facilities as visual and electronic
devices, traffic control towers,
intermediate landing fields, and
radio stations.
Thus a vast step forward toward
economy and efficiency has
been made in this particular fie-ld
of the federal government. But
