Mr. WACHTER. With respect then to the capital improvements, we have obligated the entire portion of the appropriation to the construction and completion of these units. This was in accordance with our plan and program and in accordance with the grant-in-aid document which made available this sum for this particular purpose. As you examine the documents, the grant-in-aid agreement, there is a complete brochure on the physical facilities incorporated as a part, as an exhibit, of the grant-in-aid agreement, and you will find that this is the first stage in the long-range development of the whole EastWest Center physical facilities. I would like also to say that this portion of the project was carefully studied and estimates made of the cost. The actual construction cost is within 212 percent of the estimates that we made for the development of this portion of the project. I am personally a little proud of this because these were prepared much in advance of the actual appropriation for the project and we have been able to follow through with the construction within the 212 percent that I mentioned. The second item is the scholarships and grants. This, of course, is the total sum to provide scholarships and grants from the beginning of the program for 1960-61, 1961-62, and for 1962-63. A major portion of this we have already obligated in actually having made grants to students, scholarships for students, and grants to senior scholars. The funds for the 1962-63 grants and scholarships, of course, have not been obligated and will not be committed until awards are made in September 1962. This covers in effect a portion of the 3-year program for scholarships and grants. I have a statement which will indicate how much is expended and how much is currently obligated and how much is unobligated as to the balance. The third category, the operational cost of the Center, $1,098,820, is the operational portion of the program and will carry the cost of the administration and project support cost for the Center through its initiation in October, October 25, 1960, through to June 30, 1962. We estimate we will require all of this money to meet our obligations for the past and the additional period just ahead of us. In this regard I have a fiscal report summary which shows the amount of the contract in those three categories, the expenditures up to the 30th of September 1961, the obligations we feel are in effect for the additional portion of the funds, the portion of the funds that will be available for scholarships and grants in 1962-63, and a small unobligated balance because of the fact that our current scholarship program of awards is not as great as the number provided for in the budget; however, we expect to make some additional awards between now and February.

Mr. SEELY-BROWN. Do you anticipate any additional capital expenditures; in the immediate future, the next fiscal year? Are you going to come to Congress and ask for more money for capital improvements?

Mr. WACHTER. This is a separate subject. I would be glad to answer your question. Yes, we have proposed to the State Department in our budget request that the program continue and that there will be additional capital improvements required to implement that program. I believe that will be discussed a little bit later with respect to the long-term plan of development of the East-West Center. Attached to this are some details as to how these moneys are being ex
