Allan Damon has spotted two errors in his article on the federal bureaucracy, which ran in our August, 1Q74, issue. On page 65, second column, the fourth line should read: “last available total (fiscal 1972) is 10.8 million, more than 5.6 million of whom are in education—3.1 million as teachers, 2.5 million in administrative, auxiliary, and custodial services.”

On page 66, first column, the third paragraph should read: “The proposed budget for fiscal 1975 is $3o4 billion, a figure roughly 70,000 times greater than the two-year budget for 1789-91.”
