     We are pleased to be here today to discuss, in the light
of the experience of the General Accounting Office, problems
of administering welfare programs and the question of
whether such programs can be effectively managed.
     At the outset, it is appropriate to observe that there
are many Federal and federally assisted programs, as well
as non-Federal programs, which can all be called welfare
programs. These programs are directed to various needs,
including food, shelter, clothing, education, health, em-
ployment, and so on, and at the Federal level are adminis-
tered by a large number of departments and agencies under
even a larger number of legislative authorizations. The
extent of the multiplicity of such programs is, itself, a
factor contributing to the problems which have surfaced in
their administration.
