         The Honorable Henry J. Hyde
         Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary
         House of Representatives

         Subject: Federally Chartered Corporation: Review of the Financial Statement Audit
                   Reports for the National Federation of Music Clubs for Fiscal Years 1999
                   and 1998

         Dear Mr. Chairman:

         As requested, we reviewed the audit reports covering the financial statements of the
         National Federation of Music Clubs, a federally chartered corporation, for the fiscal
         years ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. The corporation's purpose is to encourage
         American musical activities. The corporation advances its objectives by granting
         awards and scholarships, publishing periodicals, and sponsoring various music
         related activities.

         Federally chartered corporations are required under 36 U.S.C. 10101 to

         * present the corporation's assets and liabilities and reasonable detail on the
            corporation's income and expenses in annual financial statements,

         * obtain an annual financial audit by an independent public accountant, and

         * submit the auditors' report and the corporation's financial statements to the
            Congress.

         The objective of our review was to determine whether the audit reports complied
         with the financial reporting requirements of the law. In carrying out our work, we
         reviewed the corporation's financial statements and the accompanying notes,
         performed certain analytical procedures related to information presented in the
         financial statements, reviewed the auditors' reports, and made inquiries to
         corporation officials or the auditors as we deemed necessary. We did not review the
         auditors' working papers. Our review disclosed no reportable instances of
         noncompliance.
