Fiscal Year 1957 
LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL 

To the Congress of the United States: 

U. S. Government Printing Office 

Washington 25, D. C. 

January 3, 1958 

This report, submitted pursuant to the provisions of the Act of 

January 12, 1895 (sec. 19, ch. 23, 28 Stat. 603) covers the work of the 

Government Printing Office for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1957. 

Under the 1940 Legislative Branch Appropriation Act, the requirement for the printing of an annual report was suspended, and subsequent appropriation acts have extended this authorization. 

In the fiscal year 1957, total charges of the Government Printing 

Office amounted to $93,641,307.04. Of this amount, approximately $11,500,000 

represented charges to the Congress. The number of congressional and depart- mental orders received declined about 1-1/3% during the year. Charges for private orders to Members of Congress amounted to $200,322.61. The value of all work for 

1957 amounted to approximately $89,600,000 compared to 1956 value of $87,700,000, 

an increase of about $1,900,000. 

Field Service and Departmental Service Office operations went up nearly 16%. 

Total number of employees on the rolls (including the Field Service 

Division) dropped from 6,462 to 6,310 while the value of all work was increasby about 2%. 

The improved coordination of operations in the relatively new 

Offset Division continues to provide economies and greater efficiency. 

Another result of our economy program was the return of $2,000,000 of 

funds to the United States Treasury on November 15, 1956, bringing 

total of refunds to $13,000,000 since January 15, 1954. 

In the latter part of the last fiscal year, wage increases 

were granted to all craft employees for the fifth consecutive year. The 

increases in the several crafts trades were in line with the weighted 

average of commercial scales established in the 25 principal cities. 

There was no increase in our charges to our various customer agencies 

spite the wage increases, and our labor charges continue at the rates 

set in 1954. 
- 2 -

During the year, many officials in all branches of the Government have written letters commending the service of the Office. I 

am pleased to report that the plant is operating efficiently and economically and providing to all agencies the services they represent as 

necessary.

DIVISION OF PERSONNEL 

During the 1957 fiscal year, the Personnel Division has made substantial 

steps forward in the management of its operations while improving its program 

performance. To a large degree, it is the result of efforts by employees and 

supervisors working toward more effective and economical management. 

Recruitment policy established on March 9, 1955, by the Public Printer 

restricting appointments except in extreme emergency was continued throughout 

the fiscal year 1957. This restriction did not apply to the Division of Public 

Documents, which is under a separate budget. The effectiveness of this program 

reducing the force by attrition is shown by the decrease in the number of fullemployees on the rolls on July 1, 1956, from 6,462 to 6,310 on June 30, 

1957, a decrease of 152. 

At the beginning of the fiscal year, an examination was given to 509 

employees of the Office for the purpose of making selections for assignment to 

the position of apprentice. Fifty employees were selected and began apprentice 

training on October 22, 1956. Thirty were assigned to the Composing Division, 

to the Binding Division, and ten to the Letterpress Division. 

The program for preparing qualification standards for positions above 

the journeyman level, which bEgan during fiscal year 1956, was completed with 

the issuance of Personnel Bulletins Nos. 110 and 111. 

Two transfers of functions took place during the year in the Field 

Service Division. Seventeen employees of the Bureau of Reclamation, Department 

of Interior, were transferred to the Denver Field Service Office on July 15 1 

1956. The Government Printing Office Department of State Service Office was 

transferred to the Central Intelligence Agency on January 12, 1957. However, 

fifteen of the 114 employees elected to remain with the Government Printing 

Office and were assigned to their former positions in the Central Office after 

being replaced by the Central Intelligence Agency. 

On February 28, 1957, the Office was advised of the decision of the 

Committee on Printing to consolidate under GPO operation the printing 

plants of the General Services Administration and Veterans Administration with 

the GPO Departmental Service Office plant. However, this consolidation had not 

taken place at the close of the fiscal year. 

The GPO Board of u. s. Civil Service Examiners experienced an unusually 

year. Records show that 1,701 applications were rated during the year 

and 396 placements were made from registers maintained by the Board. Extensive 

recruitment efforts were made for proofreaders, linotype operators, and bookbinders, with the assistance of the Civil Service Commission in obtaining additional publicity; publicity through trade publications, etc. The printer 

(hand compositor) and cylinder pressman examinations were reopened through announcements issued January 8, 1957. New announceme~s were also issued for the 

printer (proofreader) examinations. A printing plant worker examination was announced on October 23, 1957, and approximately 2,000 applications were received. 

In April of 1957, a decision was made to announce a nationwide examination for apprentices in the bookbinding, composing, presswork, and machinist 
- 4 -

trades. The announcement was issued on June 4, 1957, with the closing date 

set for July 5, 1957, but because of the disappointing response, particularly 

from the area outside of Washington, D. c., the closing date was extended to 

August 2, 1957.

PURCHASING DIVISION 

The dollar value of Purchasing Division procurement activity increased 6.$% over the previous year, from $49,637,921.88 to $53,018,884.57. 

The breakdown is as follows: Commercial printing, $22,916,480.87; paper, 

envelopes and cartons, $25,633,273.79; material and supplies, $2,247,239.57; 
- 5 -

and machinery and equipment, $2 1 221,890.34. The items of machinery and equipment 

increased 50% over 1956; other increases were more proportionate to the over-all 

figure of 6.8%. 

The number of orders drawn was 17,778 compared to 18,390 in 1956. 

There was a net decrease of four employees in the Purchasing Division 

compared to 1956. Breakdown by sections is as follows:

There was a slight decrease in the amount of paper purchased compared 

to 1956. Total tonnage amounted to 158,419,118 pounds, whereas we purchased 

164,763,142 pounds the previous year. In addition, we procured 3,843,213 sheets 

of paper which are not included in the tonnage figures. 

Paper prices declined nearly 7% in each of the last two quarters, and 

the over-all price decrease amounted to 14.94%. 

The average paper inventory was 32,741,236 pounds. 

The estimated value of all printing procured commercially during the 

fiscal year amounted to $22,303,979.57. This represents the face value of all 

orders drawn for individual bid jobs and the value of program orders billed 

during the year plus the estimated value of outstanding orders on programs that 

were placed but unbilled during the fiscal year. 

Our records indicate that 51314 orders valued at $12,404,199.20 were 

drawn for individual bid jobs and 311 719 print orders having a face value of 

$91 899,780.37 were drawn on program printing contracts. 

Approximately 106,249 invitations to bid were sent to 2,364 firms on 

our bid lists. Bids received totaled 29,746, representing a response of approximately 2$% to our invitations.

The production of printing inks, including mimeograph, stamp-pad and 

numbering-machine amounted to 270,340 pounds. Purchases of letterpress and 

offset inks totaled 225,205 pounds. 

The value of inks, pastes, glues, solvents, etc., sold to other 

Government departments amounted to $62,750. 

Nearly 13 million pounds of type metal was standardized. 

The Division manufactured 2,564 press rollers, using 27,963 pounds 

of roller composition. 

Studies and research projects are continuously being conducted in 

the search for the best standards and methods of testing and controlling 

materials and supplies and processes. 

The Division cooperates with the Graphic Arts Industry and its 

Research and Engineering Council as well as other associations in research 

projects, and has rendered miscellaneous testing services to several agencies 

of the Government. 

PLANNING DIVISIONS 

The number of printing and binding orders received during the fiscal year 

was the highest in the last five-year period and personnel employed in the divisions 

at a five-year.low. Departmental requirements are for increasingly short schedules. 

Commercially Procured Work 

The nature of work procured from commercial firms continues to change 

from the relatively simple forms to more complex ones; from simple pamphlets and 

books to more elaborate and individualized ones. Work requiring color process 

and special processes has increased, in accordance with the trend of past years; 

our workloads have jumped because we are handling the recruiting work formerly 

produced and procured by two large printing plants operated by military departments. 

The simple items, such as tabulating-machine cards, cut forms, etc., continue to 

diminish in number and now form a very small segment of the work procured.

PRODUCTION DIVISION 

OFFICE OF THE NIGHT PRODUCTION MANAGER 

The adjournment rush of the Eighty-fourth Congress far surpassed any 

in the history of the Office. On July 25, 26 and 27 the Record made 272, 272 

and 288 pages, respectively, and there was no Appendix matter in either of these 

Records, as we were only able to take care of the proceedings. Had it not been 

for the installation of the new Record presses a few years ago, we would have been 

limited to 256 pages for these issues, which would have necessitated cutting off 

more of the proceedings. The 26 issues of the Record for this period were unusually large, averaging 202.5 pages per issue. Of these 26 issues, there were 8 

that made 256 pages or more. Senate and House reports printed during this period 

totaled 683. 

After a period of reorganization, the first session of the Eighty-fifth 

Congress became quite active. There were 11,505 bills and resolutions introduced 

before the end of the fiscal year, which is the highest on record for a like period 

time. This compares with 10,635 for the first six months of 1955, which was the 

highest up to that time. Due to this period of increased activity in bill work, 

the number of introduced bills and total bill prints for the year is also the 

highest on record. Total bill printsJ'or the fiscal year were 26,151 as compared 

with 13,885 for the previous fiscal year and 22,399 for the year preceding that. 

Congressional Record totaled 15,480 pages and averaged 137 pages per issue 

the 113 issues printed for the Eighty-fifth Congress, first session. The 

Record for the fiscal year totaled 20,756 pages for an average of 149.3 pages 

per issue for 139 issues. 

In addition to congressional work, a number of departmental jobs are 

regularly scheduled for handling at night. The Daily Federal Register is 

imposed, printed, and mailed at night. The Army Special Orders, which average 

over 20 pages of technical and tabular composition per issue, are handled each 

night. 
- 10 -

Bills 

Bill forms sent to letterpress totaled 11,719 as compared to 14,009 

for the previous year. The equivalent of 1,171 sixteen-page forms were printed 

in Offset Division during this fiscal year. This is the first year for producing bills by the offset process and should result in an over-all saving in the 

cost of this work. Bill pages set totaled 76,558 as compared to 63,845 for the 

previous year. 

Calendars 

During the fiscal year 68,554 pages of calendars, including Senate 

and House Business Calendars, were corrected and made up, and 5,153 forms 

were imposed, compared with 89,439 pages corrected and 8,205 forms imposed 

during the previous fiscal year. 

Hearings 

The total number of hearings received was 554, of which 235 were 

Senate and 319 were House, compared with 578 for the previous year, which was 

a high record at that time. 

Senate appropriation hearings made 13,714 pages and House appropriation hearings made 27,370 pages; a total of 41,044 pages for the year. 

BINDING DIVISION 

The Binding Division had 1,186 employees at the end of the fiscal year, 

compared with 1,190 in the previous year. 

One of the largest jobs handled was, as usual, the Federal Income-tax 

program, involving more than 485 million copies. Besides the folding and other 

binding operations, the work required 150,000 bands and packing in 319,000 cartons 

for shipment to 15,500 destinations.

DIVISION 
Offset facilities have been increased by 43%, and personnel in this 

newly-organized Division by 25%, with comparable reductions in the letterpress 

operation. The over-all change has presented numerous problems in training, 

which has progressed satisfactorily, and in organization. These improvements 

have brought about an increase in press impressions from 178,395,762 in 1954-55 

to 273,000,000 in the past fiscal year. 

In the Negative Section, production of negatives has been increased 

by approximately 5,000,000 square inches to 27-1/4 million square inches. 

The use of direct-image paper plates has passed the experimental 

stage and many jobs are being successfully printed by this extremely economical 

method. 

PLATEMAKING DIVISION 

The records of the Platemaking Division show a relatively stable 

condition, square-inch production decreasing less than 3%, even though changes 

in printing processes indicate an increase in other than letterpress reproducibles. There was a 5% reduction in the number of employees on the rolls. High 

production levels and an increasingly satisfactory product are the result of 

a1opting many new and improved methods in the several sections. 

Installation of a new chromium-plating tank in the Electrotype Molding Section proved a great asset during the year for the processing of long-run 

plates. 

Installation of a new camera, a second Dow Rapid Etch machine, a coating machine for magnesium plates, and various improvements to equipment and workrooms in the Photoengraving Section have increased the efficiency and productivity 

of this Section. 

Better procedures in plate-storing operations have made possible the 

of 560 square feet of floor space and the services of 4 employees. 

DELIVERY SECTION 

The count of recorded items, partial and complete deliveries, for this 

year amounted to 133,620. This represents an increase of 1,174 over the last 

report. Fleet mileage shows an increase and accident frequency has decreased. 

The following table gives a five-year comparison on these subjects: 
- 13 -

1956-57 133,620 277,125 .. 72 

There has also been an increase in the number of requests for pick-up 

service, 197 more than last year for a total of 2,800,. 

LIBRARY COMPOSING SECTION 

During fiscal year 1957 the workload of this Section remained constant, 

more work coming in than could be handled. As a result at the close of the 

year a total of 10,367 titles were available for processing compared to 8,100 

titles on hand at the beginning of the year. A total of 38,291,592 cards were 

printed compared to 39,544,573 processed during fiscal year 1956. It might be 

pointed out that although there was a decrease in cards printed1 a total of 

13,425 press forms were handled compared to 13,418 during the prior year. A 

more complete breakdown of p~oduction is shown in the following comparison between fiscal years 1955, 1956 and 1957: 

A total of 64,446 books were bound and lettered. This is a reduction 

from the number processed in fiscal years 1955 and 1956. However, a corresponding reduction in chargeable hours was noted. The following figures show a comparison of the number of books processed during the past 3 years:

FIELD SERVICE DIVISION 

The Field Service Division, with 433 persons on the rolls, showed an 

increase of 12, but remained 10 fewer than in the fiscal year 1955 (excluding 

State Department Service Office transferred in January 1957 to another 

Government agency). 

The Denver Field Service was relocated the Denver Federal 

and the Bureau of Reclamation printing plant was consolidated with it. 
- 14 -

As a result of the consolidation, the number of employees increased from 16 to 

36, but the value of services performed went from $176,000 to $435,000. The 

other Field Service Offices (Chicago, New York, San Francisco, and Seattle), by 

reason of a directive from the Joint Committee on Printing, accepted and produced 

for agencies in their respective areas an increased volume of work. 

The value of Field Service Office production was $2,035,925.66 and of 

the Departmental Service Office (Washington) $2,114,700.51.
