      OF THE HOUSE COMMITTEE ON POST OFFICE AND CIVIL SERVICE
                  REGARDIN. H.R. 3807, MAY 2, 1972


Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee-
                                                                   1AX7
     I appreciate your invitation to diseus H.R. 3807-a bill to

establish and provide for the administration of the Federal Executive

Service--both from the point of view of its impact on the General

Accounting Office, and from the viewpoint of our evaluation of the

bill's contribution to improving the management of the Government's

executive manpower resources.

     In my brief letter of April 13, 1972, to Chairman Dulski, I addressed

several points of concern to the General Accounting Office. Hence, I

welcome this additional opportunity to discuss our views at greater

length. In preparing this statement, we have had an opportunity to

study the statement submitted to you by Chairman Hampton on April 18,

1972, and to review the transcript of that hearing.

     I would like, first, to comment on the principal features of the

proposed Federal Executive Service as outlined in Chairman Hampton's

statement; and then to discuss how we believe the FES might affect our

own operations.
