                        THE BUDGET DOCUMENTS

 Budget of the United States Government, Fiscal Year 1995 contains the
Budget Message of the President and presents the President's budget
proposals.

 Analytical Perspectives, Budget of the United States Government,
Fiscal Year 1995 contains analyses that are designed to highlight
specified program areas or provide other significant presentations of
budget data that place the budget in perspective.

  It includes economic and accounting analyses, such as a balance
sheet-type presentation; information on Federal receipts and
collections, including user fees and tax expenditures; analyses of
Federal spending; detailed information on Federal borrowing and debt;
the Budget Enforcement Act preview report; current services estimates;
and other technical presentation, such as the national income and
product accounts.

  It also includes information on management improvements; the budget
system and concepts; a listing of the Federal programs by agency and
account; and a glossary of budget terms.

 Historical Tables, Budget of the United States Government, Fiscal
Year 1995 provides data on budget receipts, outlays, surpluses or
deficits, and Federal debt covering an extended time period--in many
cases beginning in  fiscal year 1940 and ending in fiscal year 1999. 
These are much longer time periods than those covered by similar
tables in other budget documents.  The data in this volume and all
other historical data in the budget documents are consistent with the
concepts and presentation used in the 1995 Budget, so the data series
are comparable over time.

 Budget of the United States Government, Fiscal Year 1995--Appendix
contains detailed information on the various appropriations and funds
that constitute the budget.  The Appendix contains more detailed
information than any of the other budget documents.  It includes for
each agency:  the proposed text of appropriation language, budget
schedules for each account, new legislative proposals, explanations of
the work to be performed and the funds needed, and proposed general
provisions applicable to the appropriations of entire agencies or
group of agencies.  Supplemental and rescission proposals for the
current year are presented separately.   Information is also provided
on certain activities whose outlays are not part of the budget totals.
