The Honorable
The Secretary of the Treasury
Washington, D. C.
Dear Mr. Secretary:
Reference is made to my letter of Ontober 3, 1947, requesting a transfer of funds from the Atomic Energy Commission
to the Navy Department, in which I indicated that further trans-.
fers would be required during the current fiscal year.
Additional funds are now required by the Navy Department.
It is requested therefore that, under the authority contained
in the Independent Offices Appropriation Act, fiscal year 1948,
under the heading "Atomic Energy Commission, " a transfer of
$15,000,000 be effected as follows:
Charge
Salaries and Expenses, Atomic Energy Commission,
1948
$15,000, 000
Credit
Salaries and Expenses, Atomic Energy. Commission,
1948 (allotment to Navy)
$15,000,000
Of the above amount, it is estimated that $475,000 will
be required for expenses of travel and therefore chargeable to
limitation .002 cited in the General Accounting Office Accounts
and Procedures Letter No. 11858, dated August
8, 1947.
The
balance of the amount to be transferred is required for general
expenses and is chargeable to limitation .00l.
A copy of this letter is being forwarded to the Secretary
of National Defense, requesting that he notify you directly of
his concurrence in this transfer,
U.S. ATOMIC ENERGY COMMISSION
