PREFACE 

The Annual Report of the Public Printer is prepared and submitted to 

the Congress.in accordance with the appropriate provisions of Chapter 2, Title 44, 

United States Code. In addition to the required fiscal and production statistics 

pertaining to the Government Printing Office proper, and the activities of the 

Public Documents Division, the report contains an abridged account of each major 

activity of the Office. 

~he production capability of the Government Printing Office is based 

on the long experience of the Public Printer and his production officials with 

the needs of Congress and the Departments. Manpower and machinery are maintained 

at a level which will assure that all requirements of the Congress and the 

Departments are met, despite the increasing trend toward ever shorter delivery 

schedules. 

Besides providing the printing and binding for Congress, which has 

increased about 20 percent during the past 10 years, it is necessary that some 

of the printing and binding for nearly 100 Federal Departments, Bureaus, and 

Agencies be produced in the Government Printing Office. This includes 

classified printing, rush work, national emergency work, and jobs demanding a 

combination of operations not obtainable from commercial sources within the 

time allowed by the Departments. 

In 1967, the Government Prinving uffice'~ volurr~ or business was 

$199.9 million. This income was derived from in-plant produced, and commercially 

procured, printing and binding, and from the supply of blank paper and miscellaneous services and materials. Commercial contractors furnished 55.1 percent 

of the printing and binding volume, exclusive of Field Service and Departmental 

Service Office work. More than 1.1 billion publications of all kinds were 

produced, including 8.8 million copies of the Congressional Record and 5 million 

copies of the Federal Register. The Congress, with billings of $21.5 million, 

was our next to largest customer, and second to Army with $27.8 million. 

Sales volume of the Superintendent of Documents amounted to $16.2 

million, of which $7 million is to be returned to the United States Treasury. 

The amount returned to the Treasury will exceed the appropriation for all 

Superintendent of Documents operations by about $6oo,ooo. Procurement activity 

during the year increased by $26.5 million principally due to buying a 

greater share of the Government's printing needs from private contractors. 

The outlook for next year is bright. Demand for printing and binding 

services continues its upward trend and the Government Printing Office fully 

expects that its levels of performance will remain high and adequately 

sensitive to customer needs. The policy of positive action and prompt 

investigation of innovating technology will be continued to insure that every 

possible means for providing the Government's printing and binding needs 

quickly, accurately, and economically are fully exploited.

PRODUCTION DIVISIONS 

Central Office production of printing and binding continued to mount, 

showing a 5 percent increase during the fiscal year. With production space 

frozen because of the crucial shortage of space within the present building 

complex, in-plant printing and binding is fast approaching its ceiling. 

Requirements for composition increased both for Congress and the 

Departments. A total of 31 1801 241,800 ems of type was set during fiscal year 

1967 compared to 31 127,973,500 ems in 1966. This is an increase of 52,268,300 

ems, and due to increased operator production required 7,083.3 fewer machine 

hours than in 1966. 

The patents processed increased from 66,243 in fiscal year 1966 to 

701 028 in 1967--an increase of 5.7 percent. Total number of pages went from 

3111130 to 3181 4901 or an increase of 2.4 percent. 

Offset continued to show growth in all areas. Because of p~sical 

limitations and lack of trained personnel, the Office was unable to handle the 

full workload increase. As a result, efforts were made early in· the year to 

procure more work from commercial concerns. The Offset Preparation Section 

was the area most seriously affected, both because of an inadequate number of 

personnel and extra preliminary work which was reflui. red for .4ob~ ~..,.;_ng out of 

the Office. 

The Letterpress workload remained about the same as the prior year, 

while that of the Bindery increased in direct proportion to the work of the 

two pressrooms. The Pamphlet and Book Sections were most seriously affected 

due to major increases in book and pamphlet work, rather than forms work. 

Congressional Printing 

Fiscal year 1967 continued the trend toward grsater Congressional 

printing requirements. The workload in nearly all categories established new 

all-time records. The second session of the 89th Congress adjourned on 

October 22 1 1966, and the 90th Congress convened on January 101 1967. The 

intervening time barely sufficed for us to catch up with hearings in process 

and to accomplish the printing of the Budget, the Economic Report of the 

President, and the other year-end publications. 

The Congressional Record is our most difficult and also our most 

important assignment. Except for ver.y rare ~tances where two exceptionally 

small issues may be combined, an issue is printed for each day that there is 

a session of Congress. Every employee concerned with the production of the 

Record assumes a personal responsibility for the performance of his portion 

of the work so that the total effort of all will assure an on-time delivery. 

For the fiscal year 1967, there were 183 issues of the Record, 

totaling 381 116 pages, with an average of 208.2 pages per issue. There were 

42 issues containing 256 or more pages. It was necessary to print five issues 
-3-

in two parts because the,y exceeded in size the capacity of our binding and 

mailing equipment. The largest issue--that of October 20, 1966--contained 496 

pages. The smallest issue of the year, on October 25, 1966, contained 48 pages. 

The new Congress, convening in Januar,y, brought with it the usual 

flood of introduced bills. ~le the total number of bill prints is slightlY 

less than it was two years ago, the prints are increasing in size as the number 

of forms and pages are the highest for which we have any record. With the 

increased volume and the complexity of comparative prints and memorandums of 

amendments 1 the small unit in the Linotype Section ha.s been under extreme 

pressure on many occasions to accomplish the overnight production demanded of 

it. The 3-year comparisons of bill work are shown in the following table:

Production and deliver,y schedules for the Bureau of the Budget on 

25 separate items were met as requested. 

The 25 items consist of the Budget, Budget Appendix, D.c. Budget, 

Budget in Brief, Combined Book (Budget, Special Analysis A-D, and the Appendix), 

Special Analyses (plus 13 separates, A-M), 6 Messages of the President (3 for 

Budget and 3 for D.c. Budget). 

A total of 101 619 folios were processed in the Composing Division this 

year as compared with 10,422 folios last year. This is broken down as follows: 

Appendix, 8,677; Budget, 1,094; D.C. Budget, 428; Budget in Brief, 127; Special 

Analyses, 293. The Appendix made 11 316 pages, an increase of 10 pages from 

last year. The Budget made 478 pages which was an increase of 29 type pages. 

The D.C. Budget increased to 76 pages as compared to 72 pages last year. The 

Special Analyses Book made 188 pages and cover, which was an increase of 25 

type pages. The Budget in Brief remained at 72 pages. 

Letterpress printed 1,396 pages of the Appendix and D.C. Budget for 

a total of 1 1 6281 196 impressions. 

Offset Division printed the Budget, Budget in Brief, Special Analyses 

(plus separates), covers for all books, and separates for Budget Messages, for 

a total of 5051 991 impressions.

Presidential Documents 

The Weekly Compilation of Presidential Documents is a comparatively 

new publication that is a joint day-night effort in Composing. Type is set 

on both shifts through the week and galley proof furnished. On Fridays, Shift 1 

starts the make-up and carries it as far as possible. Deadline for copy is 

6:00 p•m., Friday, when Shift 2 picks up and completes composition, makeup, lockup, plating, press, and bindery work. Local copies are in the mail by 

5:00 a.m., Saturday. There were 52 issues, totaling 1,932 pages for the year. This is an average of 37 pages per issue. 

Electronic Printing 

The Electronic Photocomposition Unit produced photocomposition through the use of the computer, tape-operated composing equipment, an~ other photomechanical equipment. Experimental work is conducted in phototypesetting of 

computer-generated data,and information is developed to enable Government agencies 

to adapt their data files for input to the Electronic Composing System. 

The following table compares the actual work accomplished in fiscal 

year 1967 with like activities for the preceding two fiscal years:

As shown in the preceding tables, there were significant increases 

in most activities. The increase in the number of manuscript folios set on 

the Linofilm keyboards represents a 27 percent increase in the number of folios 

with a corresponding increase in direct labor of only 18 percent over fiscal 

year 1966. This increase reflects a significant improvement in operator proficiency over fiscal year 1966. 

The Fotosetter machines were transferred from the Offset Division to 

the Electronic Photocomposition Unit in July 1966. There were 6,294 hours of 
-5-

production reported in fiscal year 1967. Approximately 1,332 jobs were produced 

on the Fotosetter machines in fiscal year 1967, which does not include small 

jobs such as miscellaneous mends and congressional work. 

The proofreading operation was also transferred from the Offset 

Division to the Electronic Photocomposition Unit in July of fiscal year 1967. 

All photocomposition produced within the unit is now proofread and revised 

before being sent to the Offset Division. 

An experiment was conducted using the Linofilm keyboards and photographic 

units to compose photocomposition for form work. Several forms from the Social 

Security Administration were set on the Linofilm keyboards. In many instances 

sections of these forms could be set once and the tapes processed many times 

for repetitious items. Presently, 100 forms on the Census of Manufacturing are 

being photocomposed by the Linofilm system. 

The 18-month cumulation for the 7th Edition of the Subject Headings 

was set and the master magnetic tape files updated during fiscal year 1967. 

The following listed publications warrant special mention since they 

made up a significant part of the year's production: 

1. Director,y of Post Offices 

2. State List of Post Offices for the National Zip Code Directory 

3. Annual Index and Geographical Index of Patents 

4. Sight Reduction Tables for Marine Navigation (3 volumes) 

5. The Air Almanac 

6. Bibliography of Logistic Studies (one annual and three 

quarterly supplements) 

7. Spectral Line Tables of Molecular Vibrations (3 volumes) 

B. Librar,y of Congress Cumulative Supplements 

9. Bibliography of Crystal Data 

With the cooperation of the Librarian of the United States Senate and 

the staff of the Joint Committee on Printing, a project was started to produce 

the Cumulative Index of Congressional Committee Hearings from a by-product 

paper tape perforated in the·process of preparing a card file. The index will 

be produced on the Linotron., saving the cost of approximately 750 pages of 

monotype composition, and the information will be available much earlier than 

has been practical-in the past. When all the problems have been solved, this 

method will be used to convert other practical applications where a paper tape 

could be produced while copy is being prepared. 

Workshop seminars continued for the preparation of agency magnetic 

tape files for input to the Electronic Composing System. Eighteen agencies 

participated in this program in fiscal year 1967. Forty-three groups totaling 

approximately 130 people worked with the Electronic Printing Planners preparing 

specifications to convert computer data to photocomposition. 
-6-

Visits to the CBS Laboratories were made periodically throughout the 

year. as work progressed on the Linotron. Mergenthaler programmers met with our 

programmers frequently to discuss the master typographT program for the electronic 

composing system. 

Technical problems were encountered at CBS Laboratories which further 

delayed deliver,r of the first machine. At the close of the fiscal year the 

major problems appeared to be solved. 

Binding Division 

The Bindery's workload continued at a high level and in some areas 

exceeded even the banner 1966 fiscal year. Major increases in book and pamphlet 

work were experienced rather than forms work. Consolidation of Binding wrapping, 

cartoning, and shipping operations, and the combining of a number of separate 

passport activities into single units, has also proved most helpful. Space 

shortages continue to plague efforts to increase overall Binder,r efficiency with 

remote sig storage causing major difficulties and multiple handling.

Composing Division 

With increases in measurable ems and an attendant decrease in operator 

hours, the Composing Division shows a remarkable ems-per-hour increase from 

5,035 in fiscal 1966 to 5,127 over the period covered b7 this report. 

The operators in the three typesetting activities in the division, day 

and night, set 31 3211 998,000 ems of composition during the past fiscal year. 

This figure contains an estimated total of 79,957,200 ems for classified 

composition and corrections which has not been included in previous years. Not 

including the estimated totals for classified work and corrections, composition 

increased by 57.6 million ems over fiscal year 1966. A comparison of the past 

three years follows:

The Federal Register for fiscal year 1967 made 16,452 pages, for a 

daily average of 65 pages. This was a decrease of 392 pages from fiscal 

year 1966. Statistics for the past three years are as follows:

The Government Printing Office continues to make as much use as 

possible of the Planning Procedure which authorized the Office to send work to 

the commercial contractors for typesetting only. During the year, 44,786 folios 

were handled in this manner.

The average patent size for the past 10 years has been increasing. 

This trend now projects an average of 4 pages per patent. In addition to 

increasing in length, the patents are becoming more technical and complex as 

the chemical and electronics fields expand. This difficult copy requires more 

time in preparation, setting, and pro<Jfrea.ding. 

The Composing Division had on its rolls as of June 301 19671 11 630 

employees, an increase of 40 over the previous year. The table below shows the 

comparable number of personnel for the past three-year period:

The Converkal Process--producing negatives directly from type--was 

installed in April and has had but a two-month trial period. During this period, 

operators have pulled 5,733 pages, averaging 28 pages per hour. 

Ten 15 x 17 keyboards and fifteen 15 x 17 casters were installed in 

the Monotype Section. These machines, replacing old antiquated equipment, some 

of which were 40 years old, have proved a sound investment. 

. The conversion of tabular matter in the Congressional Record to News 

Gothic Condensed was accomplished smoothly, and this typeface is proving to 

be the most popular face that the Office has installed in recent years. 

The installation of two duplicators with in-line collators to supply 

large numbers of proofs when requested by the Congress has proved to be an 

invaluable aid. 

A new Style Manual was issued during the year comprising a complete 

revision of the·l959 Manual. The objective was to effect economies in the 
-9-

mechanics of printing, without sacrificing any rules or regulations consistent 

with good printing. Work on the Manual began January 1966, and after 13 Style Board meetings was approved for printing by the Joint Committee on Printing 

December 12, 1966, and released for press in January. 

Letterpress Division 

Letterpress volume was steaq, during the year with a drop in Departmental work being offset by an increase in congressional requirements. The following is a tabular analysis of productive comparisons for the past three years on

For the past four years, a gradual decline in division strength has 

been permitted in order to effect an economical balance between workload and 

equipment. Volume has reached what must be considered a stabilized point, and 

consequentlY personnel strength also has roughly stabilized at 453 employees--

a gain of 5 over 1966, but 21 less than 1965. 

During the past year, six old worn-out Miehle vertical presses were 

replaced with six new V'50 X style Miehle verticals, and two worn-out Miller 

Simplex presses with two 22" x 32~ Heidelberg cylinder presses. All equipment is performing satisfactorily, and it has been possible to assign much work to 

this equipment that could not heretofore be handled on these two press groups. The two remaining 40" x 5~" cylinder perfecting presses, which were 25 and 37 

years old and completely worn out, have been removed from service. 

Magnesium saddles on one 42 x 60 sheet-fed rota~ press have been 

replaced by steel saddles fastened permanently to the cylinder. This makes for 

a more secure lockup and prevents "breathing" of plates (an up and down movement 

produced by impression and centrifugal force) which eventually wears the plates. 

A paste pump has been installed on the record presses, and has 

eliminated the heavy, awkward, and unsafe handling of paste cans. 

Offset Division 

This division accounted for a major share of the growth of the overall 

Office volume during the past fiscal year. With Cop,y Preparation handling an 

11.3 percent increase in jackets processed, a 55.5 percent increase in 

congressional pages, and sizable gains reported in numbers of negatives, plates, machine hours, and makereadies, the magnitude of the production trend becomes 

apparent.

The printing by offset of the first 4-color process airmail post card 

commemorating the Boy Scout Jamboree was accomplished on the Miller TP38 

equipment. Two colors on one press were followed by two colors on the second 

press, and ver,r close hairline register was achieved. 

u.s. Treasury Department Form 1096, a special production test form 

printed for optical character recognition printout, was produced. A total of 

2851 000 sheets were printed wi'thin the specified density range of 1.52 and 1.55 

throughout the run. Quality control work has increased, and demands for top quality work are requiring more effort to be applied to control standards. 

During the fiscal year, the Offset Preparation and Offset Negative Security Units were combined and relocated to an area with direct access to 

security photographic equipment. The move consolidated all preparation and 

negative functions in a central security area with the benefits of reduced 

handling of classified material and the simplification of security paperwork. 
-12-

Platemaking Division 

The Platemaking Division produces and services various kinds of 

relief-printing plates. These include stereotype, electrotype, photoengraving, wraparound, plastic, and rubber plates, both flat and curved, for the departments and u.s. Government Printing Office use. An additional function is the 

operation of the Plate Vault and Central Reporting Units.

A rapid etch machine for copper has been purchased and installed in 

the Photoengraving Section. This machine will increase the speed and quality of copper engraving. 

Dycril platemaking equipment has been purchased and is being installed. 

The Photoengraving Section is to process type 60 and type 30 Dycril plates for 

Letterpress, and hopes to process type 17 letterset plates for offset in the 

future. The rotary explosure unit of this equipment will permit exact spacing of precision forms, that could not be accomplished by flat explosure. 
-13-

Library of Congress Branch 

Letterpress production of catalog cards for fiscal 1967 increased 

66 percent, from 38,681,645 to 64,249,176. Titles received increased 19 percent, from 2181 011 to 259,682, and titles set increased from 214,852 to 264,050, or 

23 percent. Overprinting of combination call numbers and subject headings 

increased 25 percent, from 21 126,369 to 2,656,520. 

In fiscal 1967, the number of titles processed by the offset process increased from 665,980 to 197,600, and the number of press forms increased from 

66,598 to 79,760. Press impressions increased from 6,213,200 to 8,333,118 or 

34 percent, and cards printed from 62,132 1 000 to 83,331,180, for an increase 

of 34 percent. Total press impressions for all classes of work increased 57 

percent, from 12,193,828 to 19,176,827, and total copies printed from 73,291,351 

to 971 794,488, an increase of 33 percent. 

Since the main function of the Branch is the production of catalog cards, it is of particular interest to note that for the third consecutive 

year catalog card production has increased, with each year being an all-time 

high, as follows:

Delive;r Section 

The count of individual shipments for the year amounted to 146,436 items. 

The current figure represents an increase of 281170 above fiscal year 1966. 

Fleet mileage shows a decrease of 131 929 miles. The discontinuation of daily trips to Franconia, Virginia, will account for reduction in mileage. Our 

accident frequency figure is 13.071 as compared with 13.09 for last fiscal year. The following table gives a three-year comparison on these subjects:

*The fleet accident rate equals reportable accidents times 100,000, divided by the number of actual vehicle miles. 

The present number of employees is 75. In the two years preceding this report, there were 75 and 72, respectively. Of the present group, 56 are 

assigned to Shift 1 and 19 to Shift 3. 

The 3,200 square feet of space on the first floor of Building No. 1, 

reassigned to the Delivery Section, is now in use. Replacement units for the 

vehicle fleet have been received and placed in service consisting of two panel delivery trucks, one passenger car, and one two-ton van with hydraulic lift gate. 

Extra hydraulic lift gates have been installed on two of our heavy duty vans. 

In addition, replacement units for three heavy duty vans and six light duty panel trucks are on order. 

The number of delivery stops is steadily increasing as Departments and Agencies expand. Many of the newer stops are receiving large shipments while lacking platform facilities. In ~ other instances, delivery is 

hampered by departmental or traffic regulations, so that we are able to deliver 

only during certain hours of the day. The additional space recently assigned 

on the first floor has eliminated double handling of work. With this improvement, 

we have been able to discontinue overtime on Saturdays for Shift 3. 

PLANNING DIVISIONS 

Division of Planning Service 

During the fiscal year, the Division of Planning Service received 

1331 911 printing and binding requisitions and print orders--the principal measurable activity of the Division--an increase of about 4.2 and 9.9 percent, respectively, over those in fiscal years 1966 and 1965. The sharp rise in 

the number of print orders received in the past two years was due, for the 

most part, to increased commercial procurement of program and other repetitive 

types of work on both old and new contracts. 
-15-

Much of this was formerlY contracted for, or produced in-house by 

many of the departments involved. As vehicles for processing the requisitions 

and print orders, Planning Service issued 55,111 "regular" and 6,255 11 open11 

jackets, a sizable increase over jackets issued in fiscal years 1966 and 1965. 

Needless to say, the substantial increases heretofore described resulted in 

proportionate increases in the volume of service and liaison work required 

of Planning Service.

While the above tabulation shows the continuing upward trend in the 

total number of requisitions and print orders received, it is noteworth,y that 

we continue to receive requisitions at a more or less steaqy rate, but that 

the number of print orders received increases by leaps and bounds. This points 

up the ever-increasing activity in the area of commercial procurement since 

most of the print orders are placed with private firms under contract to this 

Office for various programs of printing. 

The automated reproducible inventory control station has been set up 

in this Division and in the Plate Vault, and it is hoped that it can be made 

fully operational by the end of the calendar year. 

Division of Plant Planning 

During the fiscal year, the Division of Plant Planning prepared 

36,215 regular and print order jackets--the principal measurable activity of 

the Division--an increase of about 3.5 percent over the 34,994 jackets 

prepared in fiscal year 1966, and approximately the same as the 36,294 jackets 

prepared in fiscal year 1965. As a result of the increase in the number of 

jackets prepared--the controlling factor in the Division's principal activities--

there was a like increase in the number of production plans developed and 

jackets scheduled, as compared to fiscal year 1966. 
-16-

Division of Typography and Design 

The number of jackets processed declined, but the number of jobs received from Scheduling for color approval increased by 11 percent. The 

continued increase in the use of one or more colors is indicative of the trend. 

The number of orders for photoengravings and the number of cuts ordered 

continued to decline as in previous years--14 percent this year. 

The pieces of finished art decreased by 17 percent from fiscal 

year 1966, due mainly to the smaller jobs handled during the year. The number 

of layout sketches also declined slightly, but this is partially offset by 

a new operation class for d~ pasteup, mentioned in last year's report. The number of finished pieces produced by the Photographic Section remained 

fairly constant with only a 4 percent increase.

As part of its regular work, this Division was concerned with the 

printing of a number of important or unusual books or programs which should 

have special mention. 

Public Papers of the Presidents, HarEY s. Truman1 1952-S' -- This was the 

eighth and final volume in this series. The book contains 1,380 pages and 

is the largest volume in the set, It was printed on 50 percent rag English finish paper and bound in dark gray cloth with stamping in blue and gold. 

Public Papers of the Presidents, Lyndon B. Johnson1 1965 -- This was the second 

volume of this series. As in the previous year, it was necessary to divide 

the material into two books. The first book contained 752 pages, and the 

second book 760 pages. They were printed on 50 percent rag antique paper, and 

bound in green cloth with stamping in dark green and gold. 
-17-

1966 Yearbook of Agriculture -- The subject of the book is "Protecting Our 

Food." The Division of Typography and Design was responsible for the format 

of the entire book and all the necessary artwork. There were 416 pages. The 

cloth for the casebinding was printed by offset in yellow, blue, and black, 

and then varnished. 

Poisonous and Venomous Marine Animals of the World, Volume II, Part I -- The 

second of three volumes involving a survey of a broad field of science dating 

back to the dawn of history. This monumental scientific work required 20 years• 

research, with contributions coming from many foreign governments. The 

production of Volume I took approximately three years. Volume II is planned 

for completion late this year. As in Volume I, the reproducibles for the 

illustrations are transparencies, full color paintings, pen and ink drawings, airbrush paintings, and black and white photographs. There will be 11 070 pages 

containing 438 four-color process illustrations, and 16 two-color maps, and 

303 black halftones and line illustrations. The presswork is now being 

procured commercially, and the composition was done at the Government Printing 

Office. The binding will be by GPO, casebound in natural finish light blue 

linen, printed in dark blue, and stamped in gold. Quality control by Typo and 

Design at contractor's plant. 

Reports of General MacArthur -- The remaining three books in this four-book 

series were completed during this past year. Tb.ey averaged around 450 pages 

per book. The reproducibles·for this job were Japanese negatives for the 

color illustrations and maps, stereotype mats for the text, and photographs and copper engravings for the black and white illustrations. The material, 

as originally planned by the Japanese, contained over 170 different colors. 

We were able to reduce this to a total of 12 colors by combining, and in some 

cases by compromise. All the color was arranged to print on one side of the 

sheet, thus further reducing the presswork. The copper engravings were 

converted to offset by Scotch Prints~ Production and quality control by 

Typography and Design. Casebound in medium red buckram and stamped in goldQ 

Children's Literature, Library of Congress -- Typography and Design prepared the manuscript, cropped illustrations, pasted dummy, designed cover and format 

for this 342-page casebound book. This publication won the blue pencil award 

for highest excellence in the Federal Editors Association annual contest in 

the book division class. 

Proposed Comprehensive Plan for the National Capital -- National Capital 

Planning Commission--This was an album style book consisting of 236 pages with 

a trim size of 11 7 /8" by 9 314, '' printed in two colors throughout. A total 

of 80 detailed maps furnished by the Agency were not suitable as camera copy 

and had to be revised, reworked, color separated, and adapted for reproduction. 

This Division pasted a dummy and prepared complete mechanicals on the entire 

job.

One of the most significant achievements which occurred during 1967 

was the signing of a Labor Management Agreement with Federal Printing Workers' 

Union No. 713, IPP & AU AFL-CIO. This is our largest group with whom we have 

an agreement. The unit consists of non-journeyman blue collar employees who 

work throughout the entire plant. 

A two-year agreement was signed with Washington Printing Pressmen's 

Union No. 1. This is our first two-year contract, and is a step in the right direction in reducing the amount of time our top officials must spend at the 

bargaining table when called upon to renew agreements on a yearly basis. 

One-year contracts were signed with three other units: American 

Federation of Government Employees, Local 1292; American Federation of Government Employees Lodge 1248, and Journeymen Bookbinders' Union No. 4. 

Consultations and negotiations of contracts, as well as the monthly meetings between management and labor, provided for in the more recent agreements, have proven most valuable. This two-way channel of communication has 

proven fruitful for both the Unions and the Office. As an example, during 
-19-

this last year no grievances under the Employee Management Relations Program have reached the level of Director of Personnel. Such progress is also 

indicative of the bettering of relationships and ability to solve problems 

at the operating level between our first line supervisors and union stewards 

and chairmen. 

There has been a dramatic change in the entire concept of recruitment 

by this Office. In every shortage area, we have developed an active, aggressive recruitment program to fill our needs, and with few exceptions, have done so. 

These programs have led to the recruitment of such hard-to-fill vacancies as 

peripheral computer operators, temporar.y printing plant workers and clerks, 

engineers, legal positions, chemists, etc. Our new sources include advertisements in newspapers, field recruiting trips, contact with local business and 

secretarial schools, college placement officers, and advertisements in 

professional organizations. 

During the summer of 1967, the Office participated in the Youth 

Opportunity Campaign. Two hundred and one youths, ranging in age from 16 to 

21, were given temporary appointments at a salary rate of $1.40 per hour. 

We also participated in the Neighborhood Youth Corps program. A maximum of 

27 youths, compensated by the Department of Labor, were employed under this 

program. 

In October of 1966, the Public Printer received the Special Service 

Award for Outstanding Cooperation in Support of the Program for the Employment of the Handicapped from the u.s. Civil Service Commission. 

The Combined Federal Campaign was conducted in the Office during the months of September, October, and November. We achieved 98.9 percent of 

the quota with 94 percent of our employees participating in the campaign. 

The u.s. Savings Bond Campaign was accelerated in April, May, and 

June. At the beginning of the campaign in April, employee participation 

was 67.3 percent. The overall percentage of participation was increased to 

71.6 percent at the close of the campaign. However, some of this number 

includes those who are to have deductions from their pay starting at some 

future date within a year after June 301 1967. The above percentage also 

includes those who chose to purchase Freedom Shares. 

Approximately 3,500 employees received influenza inoculations. In ad~tion, some 3,500 received tests for the detection of glaucoma. 

The Christmas Open House Program proved to be a continuing 

attraction and source of entertainment. Approximately 2,.025 employees an1

d 

members of their families visited Harding Hall on this occasion. 

During the year, 248 tours were conducted in the Office for visitors 

who were associated with the printing industry. Approximately 1,383 visitors 

participated in the tours.

In June 1967, an IBM System 360/50 computer was acquired on a rental 

basis to replace an IBM model 1460 computero The IBM System 360/50 computer 

was primarily acquired to process magnetic tape for two high-speed photocomposing 

machines (Linotrons) on order from the Mergenthaler Corporation, and to 

supplement the IBM System 360/40 acquired in October 1965. During fiscal 

year 1967, arrangements were also made to update key punch and verifier machines 

with the latest models. 

Sixty-eight computer programs were written to meet the requirements 

of new work, or to convert from IBM 1460 language to the IBM 360 language. 

Fifty-six computer programs were modified to meet changing requirements. In 

order to provide back-up for the proposed Linotron System, six of the above 

programs were written for the Defense Supply Agency Master Cross Reference 

List application. 

The volume of printing and binding work handled by the Government 

Printing Office Revolving Fund increased from $175,878,649 in fiscal year 1966 

to $199,975,834 in fiscal year 1967. 

In fiscal year 1966, a computer application to control the direct 

shipment of postal cards and aerogrammes was developed for the Post Office 

Department. At the request of the Post Office Department, the system will 

be expanded to (a) reduce the minimum ordering level from 5,000 to 250; 
-21-

(b) to increase ordering sources from 10,000 post offices to 33,000 post offices; (c) to increase the number of destination points from 50 to 54; and 

(d) ,increase the number of items from 8 to 20. The revised system is 

scheduled to be operational on September 1, 1967. 

PURCHASING DIVISION 

The Purcpasing Division is responsible for the contracting activities 

of the Government Printing Office. These include the procurement of operating supplies, equipment, and printing and binding from commercial sources; the 

disposal of surplus property; and the procurement of warehouse space and 

commercial transportation facilities. 

The Division is also responsible for the operation of our telephone 

and communication facilities, our St. Louis Procurement Office, and our 

storage and warehousing operations. 

The value of our procurement activity during fiscal 1967 amounted to 

$139,7921 837.79. This represented an increase of $26,450,202.64 over the 

previous fiscal year, due mainly to an increase of $23,377,352.40 in the 

value of commercial printing procured.

*The value of commercial printing was computed by taking the sum of all payments made on items ordered and delivered in this fiscal year and adding thereto the 

sum of the items on undelivered orders, plus the sum of items delivered but 

still unpaid during the period, then deducting the sum of items remaining undelivered in the previous fiscal year and paid in the present year. These 

figures as furnished by Finance and Accounts do not include applicable surcharges 

or the value of paper furnished to commercial contractors. 

Paper purchased by the pound totaled 195,594,187 pounds, a decrease 

or 10,433,935 pounds from the quantity purchased in the previous fiscal year. This decrease was partially offset by paper purchased in sheets, which increased 

by 5,170,366 sheets. The purchase of envelopes also decreased by 34,674,872 envelopes from the quantity purchased in the previous fiscal year.

Paper prices showed a moderate increase in the first and second 

quarters of fiscal year 1967, then decreased substantially in the last two 

quarters. There was a cumulative price decrease of 8.762 percent for the 

entire fiscal year. 

A Printing Procurement Office was opened in St. Louis to expedite service to other agencies in that area, and a fourth warehouse for the 

emergency storage of paper was obtained in Albany, Georgia. 

Our quality control of printing procured commercially was expanded by plant visitations by our contract compliance representatives to 141 contractors. 

Total procurement activity amounted to $1391 792,837.79. Total 

commercial printing procurement amounted to $95,823,565.38, of which $524,291.54 

represents printing procured by our Field Service Offices. There were 72,512 printing jobs procured during the fiscal year. These consisted of 131 628 jobs procured by individual bidding, including 1,338 obtained by Field Service, and 57,546 jobs procured on term contracts. 

A total of 114,171 tons of paper was handled by the Stores Section. 

This was made up of 31 017 freight cars and 1,860 truckloads. Sales through salvage operations consisted of 22 1 5801 575 pounds of waste paper, 4271 850 pounds of scrap iron, 583,694 pounds of scrap type metal and dross, and 171 277 pounds of scrap photographic film. Outgoing local telephone calls amounted to 

3501 191 message units. No record was kept of long-distance message units, as 

practically all long-distance calls were placed over the Federal Telecommunications 

System. 

ENGINEERING DIVISION 

The primar,y function of the Engineering Division is to maintain all 

buildings, machiner,y, and equipment of the Government Printing Office in the 

best possible condition in order that public printing can be produced most 

efficiently. 

The Engineering Division is a maintenance and service organization. A measurement of our activities includes the volume of maintenance service 

rendered, utilities furnished, and materials purchased.

with the exception of maintenance job orders. The reason for this decrease is 

probably the result of raising the limit for service calls to $500. This 

$500 limit took effect March 11 1967.

Despite the increase in chargeable injuries shown above, the Office 

received a nomination for the President's safety award for the calendar year 1967, based on the improvement of our statistical record, for the third 

consecutive year. 

The Engineering Division with 434 people is now practically at its 

full complement of personnel, excepting the Industrial Cleaning Section. 

This section now has five vacancies. 

A new trash disposal system was inaugurated with the purchase of 

40 containers and rental of a compactor trash truck. This system has been 

in operation about three months, and has far exceeded our expectations, both 

in savings and improved housekeeping. 
-24-

Specifications were prepared for an electric truck designed for 

changing batteries on our industrial trucks required for 24-hour duty. 

A dock leveler was purchased and installed on the second ramp in 

Jac~son Alley. 

A new baling system has been purchased and will be installed during 

the coming year. To make room for this new system, the box shop has been 

relocated in tw6 old buildings in Jackson Alley rented from Redevelopment 

Land Agency. 

One of the largest jobs completed during the past year was the 

renovation of the first floor of Building 1. This involved changing an old 

Documents storage area into a modern production and distribution operation. 

Every section in the Engineering Division worked on this job, which involved 

construction of two ramps to the Delivery platform, complete relighting, 

painting, construction of partititions, and installation of Bindery machiner,y. 

Another large job was the preparation of the warehouse at 1111 North 

Capitol Street for Documents storage. Most of this work was removing office 

partitions and long extension of masonr,y walls to provide more usable storage 

areas. A great deal of other work was also performed in this building to 

make the lighting, communications, safety, and employee comfort conform 

with at least the minimum standards of the Government Printing Office. 

TESTS AND TECHNICAL CONTROL DIVISION 

The Tests and Technical Control Division tests all materials 

entering into printing and binding processes, and is engaged in such standardization work and technical research as might be desirable to improve the 

quality of the products and materials used by the Office• It writes 

specifications for the procurement of materials which are best suited to the 

requirements of the processes, and aids in the solution of technical problems incident to plant operations. 

The various materials tested during the past three fiscal years 

are as follows:

A new Infrared Recording Spectrophotometer was purchased to provide the 'laboratory with a fast and accurate means for the qualitative and 

quantitative analysis of unknown materials. This instrument enables us to 

determine the identity of a large variety of unknown materials such as 

chemicals, paper coatings, plastics, varnishes, anti-skinning agents, solvents, 

detergents, dyes, pigments, textiles, adhesives and adhesive-making materials. 

A new high-energy, 40-horsepower, disperser, which imparts a more 

powerful mixing, shearing, and homogenizing effect to materials being mixed or 

dispersed, was purchased as a replacement for an old worn-out change can type mixer in the Ink Section. 

In keeping with the continued improvements and advancements in the 

technology of the paper industry, and the desire for extending the expected useful life of many papers procured for governmental printing, we have revised 

the fifth edition of the Government Paper Specification Standards. The sixth 

edition was issued effective May 1 1 1967. The principal revisions consisted 

of higher pH requirements for both cotton content and chemical wood papers. The majority of the paper industry indicated that no significant increase in 

costs of the affected papers would result from these changes. 

The basic weight of the u.s. Postal Card Paper was reduced from 

188 pounds--22~ by 2~-1,000 sheets, to 178 pounds--2~ by 2~-1,000 sheets. 

This change in weight, without a corresponding reduction in thickness, was 

possible because fibers having greater bulk could be utilized in the manufacture 

of this paper. At the current rate of usage, a minimum annual saving of 

$35 1 000 is expected to be realized as a result of this change. 

A special nonphotographic blue numbering machine ink has been 

developed for the Library of Congress. This ink was needed for the preparation of 1.5 million index cards for use in a special information exchange program undertaken by the Library of Congress and the British Government. 
-26-

A special clear luminescent phosphor overprint ink has been developed and is being supplied to the Post Office Department for use in the commercial 

production of tagged embossed stamped envelopes. 

Optical Character Forms, generally, must comply with certain spectral characteristics, and inks employed in their printing also must meet ver,y rigid requirements. Because commercially printed supplies of Internal Revenue 

Form 1096 did not completely satisfy all of these requirements, the Treasury Department requested this Office to provide them with forms complying with 

all the OCR specifications. We have, therefore, developed satisfactor,y inks 

for printing this form. 

Three new experimental "Teflon" impregnated rubber-covered form 

rollers were tested in the Offset Division. These rollers were claimed to 

give superior performance and service as nhickey" rollers. Our practical 

tests have substantiated these claims and additional purchases of these rollers 

are planned. 

PUBLIC DOCUMENTS DIVISION 

The Division of Public Documents has general supervision of the 

public d~stribution of u.s. Government publications. It places publications 

on public sale, administers the depository library distribution program, 

compiles catalogs, indexes, and price lists of Government publications, and 

provides mailing services for certain publications distributed by Members of 

Congress and other Government agencies.

The consolidation of the stocks of publications of the Documents 

Division in a single warehouse at 1111 North Capitol Street was completed 

during the year. A system of perpetual inventory has been instituted and 

this, together with the receipt control procedures also established, will make 

it possible to maintain a more accurate record of the inventory, while making 

unnecessary a physical count of a large percentage of the reserve stock at the 

end of each year. 

The relocation of the Receiving Unit of the Division from the 6th to 

the 1st Floor, with an improved system provided for handling incoming publica- tions adjacent to the Central Receiving Unit and the delivery platform, has 

reduced significantly the time and use of elevators formerly required in the 

receipt, recording, and warehousing of these publications. This was a muchneeded improvement, the results of which continue to in6icate that it is one 

of the most beneficial changes ever accomplished, both for the Documents 

Division and the other parts of the Office concerned, as well. 

As an important part of this major realignment of an important 

operation, a new entry into the existing chute used for sending mail sacks 

and cartons to the Post Office has permitted the processing on the first floor 

of a much larger portion of orders than before, and the further saving of 

elevator time is a great advantage. 

The installation of an express check-out counter in the main 

Bookstore has speeded the flow of customers,and eliminated the waiting time 

formerly experienced by customers who had only to pay for the publications which they had alreaqy selected. 

Additions to the mechanical distribution operation of the Division 

during the year were a new and improved Cheshire mailer, a Macy collator, and 

a Pitney Bowes automatic inserter. 

Approval of a new branch-type reorganization of the top structure 

of the Documents Division has combined related work of a number of sections, 

distributed the span of control more equitably at higher levels, and separated 

work production operations from complementary staff functions. 

The first branch Bookstores outside the Washington, D.c., area 

were established experimentally during the year in Chicago, Illinois, and 

Kansas City, Missouri. A third branch store in Washington was also 

established in the new Department of State building. 
-28-

Total sales of Government publications continued to increase in 19671 with 72,439,458 copies sold, amounting to $16,194,395.97. In addition to 

the traditional best sellers which continued in popular demand, a set of 

pictures depicting the beauty of America issued by the Department of Agriculture, entitled "America the Beautiful," enjoyed a sale of more than 36,000 sets. 

An abridgment issued as a companion to the Statistical Abstract, known as the 

"Pocket Data Book," had a sale of 34,000 copies in the first six months after 

it was issued. At the end of the year, the Report of the President's Commission 

on Crime, "The Challenge of Crime in a Free Society," continued high in 

popular demand. The first revision of the G.P.O. Style Manual since 1959 was 

issued only a few months before the close of fiscal 1967. Despite this, 

14,500 of the complete edition and 131 000 of the abridgment have alreaqy been 

sold. 

The number of depositor.y libraries increased from 856 on June 30, 1966, 

to 921 on June 30, 1967. Publications distributed to depositor.y libraries 

exceeded 111 0001 000 copies in 1967, a new high for this operation. Continuing the implementation of that part of the 1962 Depositor.y Library Act, providing for the distribution of certain non-Government Printing Office produced 

publications to depository libraries, publications of the Department of Labor 

which meet the criteria established by the law were added to the program in 1967. 

FIELD SERVICE DIVISION 

The Field Service Division, under the general direction of the 

Deputy Public Printer, is responsible for the overall supervision of the six 

Field Service Division offices located in Chicago, Denver, New York, 

San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington, D.c., which provide printing, binding, and related services, including the commercial procurement of printing, to 

over 200 departmental and field installations of the u.s. Government throughout the United States. 

The Post Office Department remained the largest customer of the 

Field Service Division in 19671 and increased their printing and binding requirements in excess of $132,000 over the previous fiscal year. Most of 

this amount was caused by increased activity in the printing of Zip Code 

directories and Schedules of Mail Routes, as well as an increase in label 

printing by the Chicago and New York-offices. The Department of the Interior, 

our previous second largest customer, also increased their requirements, but 

only by $17,0001 and remained No. 2. The Civil Service Commission, while not 

one of our largest customers on a nationwide basis, increased their business 

by $175,000, or 134 percent over fiscal year 1966. 

The following figures show comparative value of service performed (income) by the several Field Service Division offices for the past 3 years:

On the weekend of May 21, 1967, the Departmental Service Office was 

moved from the several floors it occupied in the H.E.W. South Building and the 

Canal Street Warehouse to its new one-level plant in the Navy Yard, engineered 

especially to provide adequate and efficient space for quick service printing. 

A total of approximately 65,000 square feet comprise production, storage, 

office, and machine repair space. Of significance was the fact that this move 

was accomplished in one weekend so that there was little loss in regular 

shift operation. 

The move to the Navy Yard also resulted in an order from the Joint 

Committee on Printing to consolidate with several plants of other agencies 

located in the same vicinity. Negotiations were started with the Navy plant 

in March 1967, and equipment was transferred to our plant in June. This 

consisted of seven items which included a 17 x 22" offset press, an eightstation gathering machine, a 25 x 38" folding machine, a perforator, a drill, 

and several minor items. Personnel were scheduled to transfer to our rolls 

on July 2, 1967. 

DISBURSING OFFICE 

The Office of the Disbursing Officer is responsible and accountable

GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE RELOCATION 

Little progress of significance has been made during the past year, 

although an alternate site has been found which meets all criteria established 

for relocation. 

On March 14, 1967, the Public Printer asked the Joint Committee on 

Printing to approve this relocation site in nearby Prince Georges County for 

construction of a new Government Printing Office facility. The tract in 

question is high, well-drained, and is served by an adequate rail and highway 

system. It comprises 86 acres, and is available without expenditure of any 

Federal funds through a trade arrangement of presently-owned excess Federal 

land. 

The Committee delayed any decision until further information on 

the property exchange--which would be conducted by the General Services 

Administration--was available, and certain details concerning road access 

and rail spur construction could be examined. 

The space dilemma in the Government Printing Office continues to 

worsen as volume increases and schedules grow ever shorter. Congressional 

printing has shown a strong upward trend in all major categories ranging from 
-~-

Record pages--up 8.3 percent--to bill pages set--up 34.6 percent. Coping with regular annual increases in printing demand has become almost routine, 

but the saturation point is in sight. During the past year 166,000 square feet of space has been rented at 1111 North Capitol Street to accommodate 

Documents storage and to free additional space in the main plant. 

Internal Audit Staff 

The General Accounting Office recommended that the Public Printer 

establish a competent internal audit staff and an effective internal audit 

program. On February 6, 1967, the Public Printer established such a program with the issuance of Administrative Order No. 294. On May 8, 1967, a 

professional accountant, formerly with the General-Accounting Office, was 

hired to head up the audit staff. At the year end, there were two other 

employees on the staff--a Printing Specialist and a Secretary--and efforts 

were underway to recruit another professional accountant. 

During the less than two month period the staff was in existence 

in fiscal year 1967, its efforts were directed primarily toward getting oriented as to the Government Printing Office organizational structure and 

its many operations and activities. The staff, however, started preparing 

a comprehensive audit plan whereby all major functions, activities, and 

organizational units of Government Printing Office will be audited on a 

five-year cycle. 

Equal Employment Opportunity Program 

Fiscal year 1967 was marked by significant accomplishments in the 

Government Printing Office Equal Employment Opportunity Program. The 

appointment of a Deputy Equal Employment Opportunity Officer on April 24, 

1967, marked the first time a full-time employee has been assigned to this 

very important field of endeavor. Our capacity to meet the challenge of an 

affirmative equal employment opportunity program is increased by the fact 

that the new Deputy is himself a Negro and a career office journeyman, with much experience in the area of minority group community activity. 

For the first time, and in conjunction with Civil Service 

requirements, a formal Plan of Action was put into effect. ~is Plan, which 

has since been revised and updated, has as its primary objective the 

involvement of all levels of supervision in a positive, continuing effort 

to provide equal-opportunity to all employees and qualified applicants in 

hiring, training, promotion, and all other employment practices and 

procedures. The Plan of Action is subject to annual revision by the 

Government Printing Office, and inspection of its content and effectiveness 

by the Civil Service Commission. 
-32-

During the year the Public Printer stressed the importance of 

this program in staff meetings and in sessions with new employees. Early 

in the year, in a letter mailed to each employee, the Public Printer called 

for a cooperative effort by employees at all levels to help implement the 

intent and the spirit of the program.
