                 SHIP TRAVEL XND TRAVEL  ADVANCES

Mr. Chairman, Members of the Subcommittee:    --

     I am pleased to be here to discuss  our recent report to you

on State Department and U.S. Information  Agency Ship Travel and

Travel Advances.  That report evaluates  the agencies' use of

ships for official travel  and their management and control of

travel advances.

     Our work disclosed  two significant problem areas which we

believe result in unreasonable  and excessive use of government

travel funds:   (1) use of ship travel for post assignments,

transfers, and home  leave and (2) mismanagement of travel

advances.  We also  found several additional problems resulting

from the failure to  follow established travel regulations.
