         The Honorable F. James Sensenbrenner, Jr.
         Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary
         House of Representatives
         Subject: Federally Chartered Corporation: Review of the Financial Statement Audit
                   Report for the National Federation of Music Clubs for Fiscal Year 2002

         Dear Mr. Chairman:

         As requested, we reviewed the audit report covering the financial statements of the
         National Federation of Music Clubs, a federally chartered corporation, for the fiscal
         year ended June 30, 2002. 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, and

          obtain an annual financial audit by an independent public accountant.

         The objective of our review was to determine whether the audit report 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, and reviewed the auditors' report. We also held limited
         discussions with the corporation's auditors regarding potential enhancements that
         could be made to the corporation's financial reporting. However, we did not review
         the auditors' working papers, and we are not rendering an audit opinion. Our review
         disclosed no reportable instances of noncompliance with the financial reporting
         requirements of the law.
