Sec. 290. National Institutes of Health Management Fund; 
        establishment; advancements; availability; final adjustments of 
        advances
        
    For the purpose of facilitating the economical and efficient conduct 
of operations in the National Institutes of Health which are financed by 
two or more appropriations where the costs of operation are not readily 
susceptible of distribution as charges to such appropriations, there is 
established the National Institutes of Health Management Fund. Such 
amounts as the Director of the National Institutes of Health may 
determine to represent a reasonable distribution of estimated costs 
among the various appropriations involved may be advanced each year to 
this fund and shall be available for expenditure for such costs under 
such regulations as may be prescribed by said Director, including the 
operation of facilities for the sale of meals to employees and others at 
rates to be determined by said Director to be sufficient to cover the 
reasonable value of the meals served and the proceeds thereof shall be 
deposited to the credit of this fund: Provided, That funds advanced to 
this fund shall be available only in the fiscal year in which they are 
advanced: Provided further, That final adjustments of advances in 
accordance with actual costs shall be effected wherever practicable with 
the appropriations from which such funds are advanced.
