Appropriations for Federal Control of Transportation Systems and Certain Urgent Deficiencies for 1920: Hearing Before the Subcommittee of U. S. ... Committee on Appropriations (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book scrutinizes appropriations hearings conducted by a subcommittee of the House of Representatives, chaired by James W. Good, a Republican from Iowa, in April 1920 during the 66th United States Congress. The objective was to consider and approve or disapprove supplemental funding requests from various government departments and agencies, including the District of Columbia government and its institutions, for the remaining months of the fiscal year ending 30 June 1920. The hearings took place against the backdrop of the First World War's conclusion a year and a half earlier, which had put a strain on the nation's resources and economy. With the war over, the government was seeking to return to peacetime operations and reduce spending; however, the hearings reveal that many government agencies were still experiencing funding shortfalls and had to justify their supplemental funding requests to Congress. The book provides valuable insights into the inner workings of the US government's budgetary and appropriations process, particularly in the aftermath of a major war. It also sheds light on the challenges and complexities of managing public finances and allocating resources in a time of transition and economic uncertainty.
