APPENDIX 



NOTE 



The variance in budget requests shown in the 

 following tables illustrates the point made in 

 the text discussion of alterations in the budg- 

 et. Such alterations in the slicing of the budg- 

 et pie come from many sources. Seldom is 

 the technical information on which such 

 changes are based made evident, so that a 

 judgment can be made of their consistency 

 with a goal-oriented program. This is particu- 

 larly evident in table 2, which compares Of- 

 fice of Management and Budget requests for 

 1970, a budget year reflecting a change in the 

 Presidency.
