Dr. William A. Cherry
Director, Public Health Service Hospital
210 State Street
New Orleans, Louisiana 70118

Dear Dr. Cherry:

     We have made a review for the settlement of accounts of account-
able officers at the Public Health Service Hospital, New Orleans,
Louisiana.  The review 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 examination, completed in October 1970, was directed primarily
toward evaluating administrative procedures and controls relating to
the receipt and disbursement of funds, and included such tests of
financial transactions as we considered appropriate.  We reviewed and
considered the audit of procurement activities completed in October 1969
by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare Audit Agency.  We
did not review program activities and we did not audit payrolls.

     Our review disclosed that the administrative procedures and controls
were generally satisfactory.

     In accordance with the General Accounting Office Policy and Pro-
cedures Manual for Guidance of Federal Agencies (8 GAO 3), the records
of financial transactions through June 30, 1970 may be sent to the
Federal Records Center for storage in accordance with your agency's
records management program.

     Copies of this report are being sent to the Administrator, Health
Service and Mental Health Administration and other Washington officials
of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare.

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

                                  Sincerely yours,



                                  W. H. Sheley/   .
                                  Regional Ma   er


                                                  FO   9658
