      The Honorable Malcolm R   Currie          BEST DOCUMENT AVAILABLE
      Director of Defense Research and Engineering

      Dear Mr Currie

            We surveyed the administration and management of Department of
       Defense medical research laboratories and identified certain matters--the
       management of laboratory equipment and the control of laboratory note-
       books--which we believe need further management attention

            One of the recommendations in this report (see p  3) relates to
       equipment management in medical research laboratories   Our office, on
       January 8, 1975, sent to the Department of Defense for comment, a report
       which addresses equipment management practices in all Government
       laboratories   In deciding what action to take on the equipment manage-
       ment recommendation in this report, considerat, n should be given to the
       recommendations contained in the report which discusses equipment
       management in all Government laboratories

             Our survey was performed at the Office of the Director of Defense
       Research and Engineering, the Army's Medical Research and Development
       Command, the Navy's Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, the Air Force's
       Office of Deputy Chief of Staff for Research and Development, and the
