IVISION OF AUDITS
      B-1186ol


Mr. Glenn  L. Emmons, Commissioner
Bureau of  Indian Affairs
Department  of the Interior


1PR 2 1 1955


Dear Mr. Emmons:


I


      Herewith is a copy of  our report on the audit of the
 Juneau Area Office (Alaska Native  Service) for the fiscal
 year 1954.  During the audit we reviewed  the organization,
 procedures, and operations at  the locations visited and gave
 particular attention to the deficiencies  reported as a result
 of our audit for the fiscal year 1953.   We have given consid-
 eration to the Bureau's reply, dated  August 16, 1954, to our
 fiscal year 1953 audit report.   Because of the short interval
 of time between the Bureauts reply  and completion of our 1954
 field work, we have not repeated  certain comments on deficien-
 cies which the Bureau is striving  to correct.  Our observa-
 tions on deficiencies and weaknesses  in procedures and inter-
 nal control and on certain other matters  are set forth in
 this report.
     We  recognize that additional problems  are encountered by
the Bureau  in the administration of its  activities within the
Territory  of Alaska and have given consideration  to them.
     We wish  to acknowledge the cooperation  given our ,repre-
sentatives  at each of the locations in the  area visited by us.
Most of the  findings were reviewed with responsible  area of-
ficials during  the audit.  We will be happy  to discuss these
comments  in greater detail with you or members  of your organi-
zation.
                                  Sin   ely yours,



                                  Robert L. Long
