Extract

The report of the President's Committee on Administrative Management, together with the President's message transmitting the report to Congress, was published as a separate document early in 1937. Several months later, nine studies of administrative management in the federal government, prepared by members of the committee's research staff, were published in a series of five separate documents. The message, the report, and the studies have now been brought together in a single volume of approximately 400 pages, conveniently indexed.
