Dear Senator Proxmire:

     As you requested on November 7, 1978, we investigated
 1eg ations that the Milwaukee Indian Health Board h.as>iis-
managed Federal fund    The complaints involved:

     --Salary increases and bonuses for the executive director
       and similar increases for other employees.
     --A consulting fee paid to the executive director before
       his employment.

     --A reduced grant award.

     --Overall poor management of Board funds.

SALARY OF THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND STAFF

     Regarding the executive director, Board members told
us that:

     --The Board's policy is to review his performance
       following a 6-month probationary period and annually
       thereafter.

     --Increases in his salary were based on assessments
       of his performance; reviews of the previous year's
       accomplishments; and increases in the size of the
       organization, its programs, and its funding level.

     --Funds for the increases came from routine lapses of
       salary payments that occur through employee turnover.

     --In view of the program's size and budget, his current
       salary of $28,800 is in line with the salaries of
       other administrators in the Milwaukee area.
