Finally, the enormous amount of detailed substantive legis
lation is still another feature of present practices which is not con
ducive to the most effective administration of the public business.
There ore, for example, 199 statutes affecting personnel manage
ment alone in the Department of Agriculture. Disposition of surplus
property is governed by over 369 separate laws. The Bureau of
Indian Affairs is required to administer over 5,000 statutes and 370
treaties; and the laws which govern the operations of the Reclamation
Bureau run to no less than 803 pages . . .
