Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee:

     We are here at your request to discuss ways in which

Federal agencies can improve their debt collection operations.

We appreciate your interest and are pleased to testify in

support of the important legislative proposals offered by the

Administration.

    Debts arise from a host of Federal activities . . . from

tax assessments to benefit and administrative overpayments, to

overdue student and housing program loans. Most of these debts

are paid routinely. However, some are not and amounts owed and

being written off as uncollectible are substantial and growing

rapidly .-
