 Dear Senator Spong.               -' ich           j, e

      As requested in your letter to the Assistant Comptroller General
 dated January 29, 1970, we are enclosing our comments on our examina-
 tion into certain statements made in an article from The Virginia
 Observer deted May 30, 1969, concerning Mr. Lawrence M. Cox, Assist-
 ant Secretary, Department of Housing and Urban Development. These
 statements questioned certain expenses for travel and entertainment
 incurred by Mr. Cox while he was Executive Director of the Norfolk
 Redevelopment and Housing Authority (NRHA), Norfolk, Virginia, and the
 use of NRHA labor, equipment, and materials to construct Mr. Cox's
 summer home and NRHA Labor to remodel h s apartment. Our examinati on
 was limited to those areas which could have involved the use of Fed-
 eral funds.

      We provided Mr. Cox with the opportunity to comment on a draft
  of this report. His comments are included as an appendix to the
  enclosure.

      We are sending a similar report to another member of the Congress
  in response to his letter regarding this matter.

                               Sincerely yours,




                       Asssant Comptroller General
                               of the United States

  Enclosure



  The Honorable William B. Spong, Jr.
  United States Senate
