" (m) Members of the uniformed services (as defined in the Career Compensation Act of 1949, as amended) may be directed by appropriate regulation of the head of the executive agency in which they are serving to secure transportation necessary in conducting official Government business within the limits of their duty stations. Expenses so incurred by such members for train, bus, streetcar, taxicab, ferry, bridge, and similar fares and tolls, or for use of privately owned vehicles at a fixed rate per mile, shall be defrayed by the agency in which they are serving, or the personnel so directed shall be reimbursed for such expenses." SEC. 3. Section 210 of such Act, as amended, is amended by adding at the end thereof the following new subsection: " (g) Whenever an agency, or an organizational unit thereof, occupying a substantial and identifiable segment of space (building, floor, wing, and so forth) in a location controlled for purposes of assignment of space by the Administrator, is moved to such a substantial and identifiable segment of space in the same or another location so controlled by the Administrator, furniture and furnishings used by the moving agency or unit shall be moved only if the Administrator, after consultation with the head of the agency concerned, and with due regard for the program activities of such agency, shall determine that suitable replacements cannot more economically and efficiently be made available in the new space. I n the absence of such determination, suitable furniture and furnishings for the new space shall be provided, as the Administrator shall determine to be more economical and efficient, (1) from stocks under the control of the moving agency or (2) from stocks available to the Administrator, but the same or similar items shall not be provided from both sources. When furniture and furnishings are provided for the new space from stocks available to the Administrator, the items so provided shall remain in the control of the Administrator, and the furniture and furnishings previously used by the moving agency or unit and not moved to the new space shall pass to the control of the Administrator without reimbursement. When furniture and furnishings not so moved are carried as assets of a revolving or working capital fund at the time they pass to the control of the Administrator, the net book value thereof shall be written off and the capital of the fund diminished by the amount of such write-off. When furniture or furnishings which have been purchased from trust funds pass to the control of the Administrator pursuant to this subsection, reimbursement shall be made by the Administrator for the fair market value of such furniture and furnishings." SEC. 4. Such Act, as amended, is further amended by— (a) Inserting in the caption for section 211 in the table of contents to such Act, immediately before the period at the end thereof, the words "and operation".
