Dear Mr. TSchacke:

     Tis  is to -otify you that we have completed our work on the Review
of the Sual 1usiness   dministration's management, organization and review
functious, zode 07765.  I wish to take this opportunity to express my
apreciazion  :or the   sistance and cooperation extended Messrs. Neely
and 3uschy ofr   staff.

     To ontai- opinions on suggested modifications to SBA's Standards of
Conduct Pro-ra,  we interviewed several members of your staff.  We were
snecificaliv interested in their opinions on the ownership of bank stock
by 53A. enloyees, expanding the requirement to file statements of employ-
men: an: :inarncial iuterest, and the responsibility to monitor these state-
ments.  We also interviewed selected employees and reviewed necessary
documentation to resolve questions concerning potential conflict of interest
situations.  The results of this review did not disclose any matters re-
quiring your attention.

     During our examination of SBA review functions, we noted that circum-
stances sinilar to those identified in one SBA internal audit report
existed in the Helena District.  These items were discussed with you and
appropriate rezional nersonnel during our exit conferences.  The report
was numter 8-74, Report of Audit on the Preliminary Review of Post
Examination and Report Upon Purchase of Guaranteed Loans, dated May 3, 1974.

     Although we did not perform a detailed review of your records concerning
the subject of this report, the following circumstances were noted:

     --Post purchase exanination forms were available but were not being
       used to assure coverage of all required elements of the examination.

     --Th  District Counsel is often unable to express an opinion on the
       legal aspects of the loan specialists' reports because some required
       data is not included in their reports.
