MR. CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE SUBCOiM&ITTEE:

     We appreciate the opportunity to present for your consideration

our budget estimates for fiscal year 1972 and to discuss with you

the operations of the General Accounting Office. The justifications

we have furnished your Subcommittee provide details of our organization,

our work programs and plans, and related budget requirements in terms

of manpower and money. We have furnished the Subcommittee our 1970

Annual Report to the Congress which presents details on the results

of our operations last year.

     My statement is designed to set forth the major factors considered

in preparing our budget for fiscal year 1972.

     As you know:

Our original appropriation for 1971 was ...   ............ ..$74,020,000

Our 1971 supplemental appropriation was ....    ............      5,971,000

The total appropriation for 1971 is       ...............$79,991,000

     Let me give you some idea of the effect recent pay and other

increases have had on our appropriation. If we calculate-the cost

of items included in our 1972 estimate of $87,598,000 at 1967 costs,

our estimate would be about $23 million less and would total about

$65 million. This represents an increase over the 5-year period of

about 36 percent.
