Mr. Lennon. Where are they funded from ? 



Mr. McKernan. They are funded primarily from the Navy, but our 

 own Department provides a small amount of money for the operation 

 of this office and so does 



Mr. Lennox. What is the total budget of this office we are talking 

 about ? 



Mr. McKernan. Dr. Lyman informs me it is about $115,000. 



Mr. Lennon, $115,000 on an annual basis and that comes from the 

 various agencies who have a representative on ICO ? 



Mr. McKernan. Yes ; primarily from Navy, but the other agencies 

 do contribute, and this goes into 



Mr. Lennon. Why could we not get that information the other day 

 when Mr. Abel was testifying or sitting there next to Dr. Morse ? 



Mr. McKernan, I cannot help you in that regard. Of course, I 

 think Mr. Lyman 



Mr. Lennon. What about the suggestion that has been made that 

 they needed money to maintain the continuous operation of an ICO 

 staff? 



Mr. McKernan. Well, there is no question about it, that the every 

 day operation of the ICO and its many subcommittees is underfunded 

 at the present time. I believe this is true. And that additional 

 strengthening of this staff is necessary. 



It is cumbersome under the present arrangement; I am sure the 

 chairman realizes this. 



Navy gets a little tired of carrying the load for all of the agencies 

 of Government 



Mr. Lennon. Let me interrupt you right there. Has the Executive 

 Secretary of ICO been a Navy representative during the 5-year period 

 of ICO? 



Mr. McKernan, Yes. 



Mr. Lennon. Is there any requirement that that be so ? 



Mr. McKernan. No, none at all. The Navy's budget in ocean- 

 ography has been the major budget, the largest one, and the Chair- 

 i^icUi of the ICO has come from Navy. Dr. Wekelin was the first one 

 and now Dr. Morse. 



^'Ir. Lennon. He is designated, though, by Dr. Hornig ? 



Mr. McKernan. By the Federal Council and Dr. Hornig, who is 

 the Chairman of it. 



Mr. Lennon, He is designated by the Chairman of FCST in every 

 instance ?
