!2.  Dear Mr. Chairman:

          In your letter of February 20, 1974, you requested that we
     prepare a report from previously gathered data concerning State
     and other plans approved under the Older Americans Act of 1965,
     as amended.  Specifically you asked which officials approved
     plans between April and August 22, 1973, whether the approval
     pattern changed during August 22 to November 1973, and whether
     the officials who approved plans were legally empowered to do so.

          You also asked which officials are now approving plans in
     view of a February 4, 1974, letter to you from the Commissioner,
     Administration on Aging (AoA), indicating that he will make such
     decisions.
