About Hearings before a Subcommittee (July 1962)
Dear colleagues,
I work as a librarian (Interlibrary services) in Tampere University Library, Finland, and my customer is trying to find this material, but unfortunately we could not find this document via the search on your GovInfo website. The references he got about this might not be exact.
C. J. Hitch, Hearings Before a Subcommittee of the Committee of Government Operations, House of Representatives, 87th Congress, 2nd Session, July 1962, U.S.G.P.O., Washington, D.C., 1962 pp. 514, 515.
He thinks the reference might be partly wrong, so that there could read "Committee on Appropriations" rather than "Committee on Government Operations". He thinks it could also be House Subcommittee on Military Operations (or something with military)?
We wish you can help us forward with this, or if you could suggest another source we can turn into. Many thanks for your time and co-operation!
Answer
Thank you for your question.
This appears to be a reference to a testimony in a hearing entitled "Systems Development and Management (Part 2): Hearings before a Subcommittee of the Committee on Government Operations, House of Representatives, Eighty-Seventh Congress, Second Session, July 23, 24, 25, 26 and 27, 1962. (Testimony of Charles J. Hitch, Assistant Secretary of Defense)"
The publication has not been added to GovInfo yet, but is available through some commercial sources.
You can view the document online for free at HathiTrust: https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.a0001857713
The testimony of Charles J. Hitch begins at page 513: https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=uc1.a0001857713&seq=97
HathiTrust does not allow downloading of documents except by member institutions, but in case you need to download the publication, I have attached a copy that I downloaded from ProQuest Congressional, which is a commercial database that our library subscribes to.
I hope this information is helpful. Let me know if this is not what you need or if there is any other assistance we can provide.
