Immediately following, and as a part of that, it would be good for you to place into the record the authorization data. (The authorization data requested follows:) Department of the Air Force-authorization for military construction 1 Amount based upon current program under general authorization of act of 1940. 2 Permanent authorization, amount fixed by appropriation acts concerned. 3 Permanent authorization, amount based upon current program. $ 8,096, 761 7, 354, 732, 785 Mr. MAHON. The clerk of the committee has just handed me this tabulation which I will read into the record in part: "Air Force construction authorized to date, $7,227,519,024; planning $119,117,000; Wherry housing, $8,096,761." That represents the authorization program, and would compare to the amount which you have programed in this chart of $5.9 billion, I believe. General WASHBOURNE. That is right; that is the authorization compared to the total appropriations of $5.9 billion shown on this chart. Mr. MAHON. No; $5.9 billion is programed to the nearest amount of appropriations which you have received. General WASHBOURNE. Yes, sir; they are the same. Mr. MAHON. They are the same? General WASHBOURNE. Yes, sir. Mr. MAHON. I believe you have said in your testimony that you have programed all the funds? General WASHBOURNE. Yes, sir. Mr. MAHON. It happens to be the same? Mr. MAHON. If you add to the present authorization of $7.3 billion the House bill for fiscal 1956, making further authorizations, you would have a total of $8.5 billion in authorizations. The pending authorization in the House bill would be $1.165 billion. Place into the record a statement at this point which will clarify those figures. General WASHBOURNE. Very well, sir; we will check those. (The information requested follows:) Department of the Air Force-Military construction authorizations, fiscal year 1949 through fiscal year 1955 Construction authorizations through fiscal year 1955_. Wherry housing land and utilities authorizations____ Net authorization available through fiscal year 1955---Additional authorizations approved in H. R. 6829 for fiscal year 1956 $7, 227, 519, 024 119, 117, 000 8,096, 761 7,354, 732, 785 1, 165, 453, 000 Total authorizations available through fiscal year 1956--- 8, 520, 185, 785 RECISSION OF AUTHORIZATION Mr. PERRY. General Washbourne, it might be well at this point to bring in the question of the rescission of authorization. Mr. MAHON. Yes; I think it would. General WASHBOURNE. The general provisions of the authorization bill, Mr. Chairman, would effectively rescind some of the unfunded prior authorizations. Mr. MAHON. Yes; that is right. We have been given that information, but I wish you would place it into the record at this point, and about how much would that be? If you do not have it now, you can place it into the record later. General WASHBOURNE. The sum of $464 million worth of that authorization to be rescinded has been reported to the Secretary of Defense for transmittal to the Congress. The operation of this general provision in this year's authorization act may, if things work out favorably, result in a rescission of, perhaps, another $200 million worth as we go through this coming fiscal year. Mr. MAHON. I wish you would give us for the record at this point some of the larger items of rescission. As you know, $400 million is quite a sizable sum, and for the record, please insert here that information. We have already had some discussion of that situation. General WASHBOURNE. All right, sir. |
