    Do Presidents Control Bureaucracy? The Federal Housing Administration during the Truman–Eisenhower Era
    in Political Science Quarterly , Volume 127, Number 3 ,  2012 ,  445-467
    CHARLES M. LAMB and ADAM W. NYE show how the Federal Housing Administration continued to permit racial segregation in its mortgage insur­ance program for years after the Truman administration indicated that it must alter that policy. They argue that the case once again illustrates that presidential control has its limits as bureaucracy successfully defied presiden­tial preferences and continued on a policy trajectory opposed by the president.
