Roy Ash, president of Litton Industries, developed a governmental reorganization plan that could save $5 billion annually. The plan involves merging several departments and agencies with overlapping functions, but faces opposition from Congress and special interest groups.

The plan is based on past commissions and recommendations from Nixon's administration.
