[Including cost estimate of the Congressional Budget Office]

and other education programs having considered the same, report
favorably thereon with amendments and recommend that the bill as

SUMMARY OF H.R. 5
H.R. 15 extends for five years with amendment a number of pro-
grams which comprise the major portion of Federal aid to our nation's
elementary and secondary schools.
H.R. 15 has three basic features:
First, the bill retains the approach which has characterized Federal
aid to education since its inception-categorical programs for specific
groups and purposes as opposed to unrestricted block grants.
Second, within this framework, H.R. 15 attempts to simplify Fed-
eral education programs to make their requirements more understand-
able, to clarify administrative responsibility at each level, to effect
better coordination between the large number of programs that exist,
and to cut down greatly on the. paperwork involved.
