         The Honorable F. James Sensenbrenner, Jr.
         Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary
         House of Representatives

         Subject: Federally Chartered Corporation: Review of the Financial Statement Audit
                   Reports for the National Conference of State Societies, Washington,
                   District of Columbia, for Fiscal Years 2001 and 2000

         Dear Mr. Chairman:

         As requested, we reviewed the audit reports covering the financial statements of the
         National Conference of State Societies, Washington, District of Columbia, a federally
         chartered corporation, for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2001 and 2000. The
         corporation's purpose is to promote friendly and cooperative relations between the
         various state and territorial societies in the District of Columbia, and to foster,
         participate in, and encourage educational, cultural, charitable, civic, and patriotic
         programs and activities in the District of Columbia.

         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 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, and reviewed the auditors' reports. 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.
