   The Honorable William L. Clay
, House of Representatives
  <?Dear Mr. Clay:

        In response to your requests of October 12 and
   December 15, 1972, as modified, after discussions with your
   office, we inquired into the use of Law Enforcqement Assist-
   ance Administration (LEAA) f.unTbi'e       , St  .Zoui s MMetropoli- 7 /
   t-d-PioliceN \epartment (SLMPD), St. 'Louis, Missouri, aidi1to  /
   certain aspeht>s of the Missouri Uniform Law Enforcement
   System (MULES). Our work was done at the Missouri Law En-
   forcement Assistance Council, Jefferson City; region V of the
   Missouri Law Enforcement Assistance Council, St. Louis; the
   Board of Police Commissioners, St. Louis Metropolitan Police
   Department, St. Louis; and the Kansas City Police Department,
   Kansas City, Missouri.


   USE OF LEAA FUNDS BY THE ST. LOUIS
   METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT

        You requested us to determine whether SLMPD had used
   LEAA funds to pay employees' salaries or to purchase riot con-
   trol equipment, such as armored cars, and whether SLMPD had
   used LEAA funds for the purposes for which they were granted.

        SLMPD received LEAA funds through grants from the Mis-
   souri Law Enforcement Assistance Council,1 Jefferson City,
   Missouri, and from LEAA's National Institute of Law Enforce-
   ment and Criminal Justice, Washington, D.C. SLMPD also bene-
   fited from LEAA grants allocated to region V of the Missouri
   Law Enforcement Assistance Council, St. Louis.

        From October 1968 through December 1972, SLMPD was
   awarded 20 grants totaling $942,601. SLMPD received $877,609


   1The agency which receives LEAA funds awarded to Missouri and
   which subgrants these funds for use by criminal justice agen-
   cies in the State. It administers the LEAA program for
   Missouri.
