Description
Caption: ENDING ANOTHER GOVERNMENT SERVICE--Former President Herbert Hoover, wrapping up a two-year job as head of the Hoover Commission on Government Reorganization, is a thoughtful listener today at a news conference as the commission ended its job embroiled in controversy. Cause of the dissent was a Hoover report on "water resources and power" which urged drastic curtailment of federal power development and large scope for private utilities. Seated beside the former chief executive is W.H. Tuck, Executive Director of the commission.

The front and back of this photograph are pictured below:
