CIVIL DIVISION






          Mr. Leverett Edwards,  Chairman       )
          National  Mediation Board
          Washington,  D. C.  20572

          Dear Mr.  Edwards.

                We have completed a review of travel expenses of the
           National Mediation Board (NMB), for the period July 1965 to
           May 1968, and of payrolls, travel expenses, and other finan-
           cial transactions of the National Railroad Adjustment Board
           (NRAB) for the period February 1, 1964, through December 31,
           1966. Our review was made pursuant to the Budget and
           Accounting Act, 1921 (31 U.S.C. 53), and the Accounting and
           Auditing Act of 1.950 (31 U.S.C. 67). Our review consisted
           of an examination of selected transactions and, to the extent
           deemed necessary, an evaluation of agency regulations, pro-
           cedures, and administration pertaiing to these expenditures.
           The results of our review are presented below.

           NATIONAL MEDIATION BOARD

               In performing our review of travel expenses, we examined
          travel allowances paid to certain employees of the NMB during
          the period July 1965 to May 1968 to determine whether the
          allowances being paid NMB employees were in accordance with
          the requirements of the Standardized Government Travel
          Regulations  (SGTR) and whether management controls in effect
          were adequate to insure proper administration of travel.

               During our review we noted overpayments of $1,441 result-
          ing primarily from the use of personally owned automobiles on
          official business as opposed to common carriers, and reimburse-
          ment for travel expenses incurred for personal reasons.





                                                                          072,
