 Dear Mr. Santarelli*

      We have reviewed the way that selected States--Louisiana,
 Michigan, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Wisconsin--have developed their
 comprehensive law enforcement plans and the extent to which the Law
 Enforcement Assistance Administration's (LEAA) appropriate policies
 and procedures facilitated development of adequate plans.  Although
 most of our work was done during the earlier years of LEAA's program,
 we believe the information in this report will provide LEAA and the
 States a perspective from which to determine the extent of progress
 in developing better plans.


     For fiscal year 1974, the five States reviewed
$8.56 million for planning purposes under Part B of
Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968, as amended.

 law enforcement planning, based on State and local evaluations of law
 enforcement needs, is an indispensable requisite for significant prog-

feffective utilization of Federal and local funds.  Comprehensive
planning  should also emphasize the unique needs of every part of the
law  enforcement system and recognize not only their interrelationships
but  also their relationships with public programs and private interests.
