The reason for the increase in the figures mentioned by the gentleman is that additional substantial budget estimates for necessary and proper items which were not before the House and the subcommittee at the time of the consideration and passage of this bill. were subsequently presented to the other body. For example. in relation to the Department of State. an item of a half million dollars for salaries and expenses was inserted in this bill by the other body. This item is in connection with implementation of the new immigration legislation passed by both Houses of the Congress and signed by the President on Liberty Island and is necessary in order to carry out the provisions of that act. There is also an item for the Department of State. International Commissions for office facilities for the International Pacific Halibut Commission at the University of Washington in the northwest area also amounting to a half million dollars.
