Mr. Rankin. But to clarify, there is no connection between the increased figure and the fact that it is pending before the Senate?
Mr. Rowley. That is right. It happens to be on the same line.
Mr. Rankin. But there is no connection?
Mr. Rowley. No, sir.
Senator Cooper. What you mean is the House has passed an appropriation of $7,500,000, and the Senate has not yet acted upon it.
Mr. Rowley. That is correct.
Senator Cooper. The $669,000 is an increase that you hope will be voted in the next fiscal year.
Mr. Rowley. That is correct.
Mr. Dulles. Do you present the budget yourself, or does the Secretary of the Treasury, or someone else in the Treasury Department—present and defend it?
Mr. Rowley. The Secretary presents the overall Treasury budget, but then in detail, we appear before the appropriations subcommittee ourselves to justify our request.
