            Mr. William J. Bookholt
            Regional Commissioner
            Southeast Region
            Internal Revenue Service

            Dear Mr. Bookholt'

                 We have made a review for the settlement of accounts
            of the Southeast Region accountable officers, Internal Revenue
            Service, Atlanta, Georgia.  Our review, completed in June 1971,
            was made pursuant to the Budget and Accounting Act, 1921
            (31 U.S.C. 53), and the Accounting and Auditing Act of 1950
            (31 U.S.C. 67).

                 Our review included an examination of administrative
            procedures and controls relating to the disbursement and receipt
            of  funds and such tests of individual transactions through
            June 30, 1970, as we deemed appropriate.  We also reviewed the
            Regional Inspector's audit report dated April 12, 1971, and
            the related working papers on the audit.  We did not examine
            program-type activities, nor did we conduct a payroll audit.

                 We found that the procedures and controls were generally
            satisfactory, except for some weaknesses in (1) the timeliness
            of  follow-up action to recover amounts due the Government from
            vendors;  (2) administration and verification of travel claims,
            and  (3) determining the validity of the purchase of an association
            membership.  We discussed the weaknesses in detail with repre-
            sentatives of your office and corrective action was taken or
            promised on most of the matters discussed.

                 Copies of this letter are being sent to the Assistant
            Commissioner  (Administration), and to the Regional Inspector.

                 We wish  to acknowledge the courtesies and cooperation given
             our representatives during this review.

                                                         Very truly yours,


                                                AQTING   Regional Manager

                         50TH  ANNIVERSARY   192  1-1971
