Issued by the SUPERINTENDENT OF DOCUMENTS
UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE, WASHINGTON 25, D.C.:1955
The following publications are in the process of being printed. Advance sales orders may be placed for these publications. Orders will be scheduled and copies mailed as soon as stocks are received. It is not possible to estimate the lapse of time before the publications will actually appear. All information in regard to title, series, classification, distribution, and price given in these listings is preliminary and subject to change when the publications actually come from the press. Those so marked will be sent to depository libraries, providing, that at the time of going to press, the libraries were on list to receive the items under which these publications will be distributed.
Common abbreviations for the names of States, months, etc., are also used.
The individual issuing department, bureau, office, or agency is considered the publisher of Government publications.
Words and figures enclosed in brackets [] are given for information, but do not appear on the title pages of the publications cataloged. Place and printer are not given for publications printed at the United States Government Printing Office, Washington, D. C. Size is not given for octavo publications. Size of maps is approximate, measurement being made from outer edge of border, excluding margin. The dates given with Senate and House documents and reports are the dates on which they were ordered to be printed. Usually the printing promptly follows the ordering, but various causes sometimes make delays.
The word "processed" as used in this catalog indicates publications which are reproduced by duplicating processes other than ordinary printing, e. g., mimeograph, multigraph, planograph, rotaprint, multilith. Processed publications are not obtainable from the Superintendent of Documents, and requests for them, if they are available, should be addressed to the issuing office.
Under provisions of the Printing Act of January 12, 1895, all Government publications are entered in the Monthly Catalog. However, administrative and confidential (or restricted) publications are omitted.
The L. C. card number appended to some of the entries is for those libraries ordering printed cards from the library of Congress. The number at the extreme right of an entry indicates the classification of the publication in the Office of the Superintendent of Documents.
The Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington, D. C., is authorized by law to sell copies of Government publications and to allow a discount of 25 percent to book dealers and also to quantity purchasers of 100 or more copies of a single publication on condition that they will adhere to the public sales price set by the Superintendent of Documents and that publications shall not be overprinted with any advertising matter.
Publications cannot be supplied free to individuals nor forwarded in advance of payment.
There is no general price list of public documents, but numerous lists have been prepared on special subjects and any of these will be furnished free, on application, by subject or subjects concerning which Information is desired. It will also be noted that current publications which are for sale are listed in this catalog.
In addition to the price lists, the Documents Office issues a biweekly list of Selected United States Government publications for sale by the Superintendent of Documents. Each list is arranged alphabetically by subjects, with annotations and prices, and may be obtained free upon application to the Superintendent of Documents.
More than 12,000 different bills are usually introduced during a Congress, and there are additional prints on many during the progress of the legislation. With the exception of a very few—such as revenue bills—the demand is an unknown quantity and on most of them we receive no orders, which makes it impossible to print a sales supply. It may be that a copy could be obtained from your Congressman.
A difficult problem is also presented in providing a supply of congressional documents, hearings, and reports because there are approximately 6,000 of this class of publications issued during a Congress and only a few of them are called for. We will attempt to print for sale a few of the more important ones, but if not priced the only possible source would be from your Congressman.
Publications entered in this catalog that are for sale by the Superintendent of Documents are indicated by a star (*) preceding the price. A dagger (†) indicates that application should be made to the department, bureau, or division issuing the document. A double dagger (‡) indicates that the document is printed for official use and is not obtainable. The symbol (ø) indicates the publication was received late and no copies are available at the Division of Public Documents. Whenever additional information concerning the method of procuring a document seems necessary, it will be found under the name of the burean by which it was published.
In ordering a publication from the Superintendent of Documents, give (if known) the name of the publishing department, bureau, or division, and the title, together with the classification number which is added to the entry at the extreme right; order the congressional documents and reports by the title, together with the document or report number and the Congress, e. g., H. doc. 108, 82d Congress.
Do not use the L. C. card number in ordering a publication from the Superintendent of Documents.
Remittances for documents marked with a star (*) should be made to the Superintendent of Documents, U. S. Government Printing Office, Washington 25, D. C., by coupon, postal money order, express order, or check. Publications cannot be mailed in advance of receipt of remittance. Currency may be sent at sender's risk. Foreign remittances should be made either by international money order or draft on an American bank.
Foreign money, defaced or smooth coins, will not be accepted. Do not send postage stamps.
For the convenience of the general public, coupons in the denomination of 5c that are good until used in exchange for Government publications sold by the Superintendent of Documents may be purchased from his office. Address order to Superintendent of Documents. Government Printing Office, Washington 25, D. C.
Persons who make frequent purchases from the Superintendent of Documents may find a deposit account convenient. Deposits of $10.00 or more are accepted against which orders may be placed without making individual remittances or first obtaining quotations. Order blanks are furnished for this purpose. After the handling of the order has been completed, it will be returned showing the publications supplied, explanations regarding those not sent, the amount of charge, and the balance on deposit.
No charge is made for postage on documents forwarded to points in United States and possessions, or to Canada, Cuba, Mexico, Newfoundland (including Labrador), and certain Central and South American countries. To other countries the regular rate of postage is charged, and remittances must cover such postage. In computing foreign postage, add one-third of the price of the publication.
The classification given at the right of entries for departmental publications is that used in the Library of the Division of Public Documents. It is also used as a catalog number for sales stock of this office. The shilling mark (/) separates what would ordinarily be superior or interior numbers or letters, as it is not practicable to print these numbers or letters as superiors or inferiors in the Monthly Catalog.
