        31 U.S.C. 132 (b) provides that the amount of all
   checks drawn .by authorized disbursing officers on
   designated depositaries which have not been paid by the
;,z' close of the-fiscal year following the fiscal year in

' depositaries and deposited with the Treasurer of the-
   United States. Claims for the proceeds of the unpaid
i  checks are to be paid by checks drawn on the Treasurer
i, pursuant to settlement action by the General Accounting
