        Dear Sir:

             As part of our contralized audit at the Nvy  Finance Center,
        Cleveland, we tested transactions in the accounts of your disburs-
        ing officer for the period July through December 1969.  We reviewed
        98 of the 182 military pay records, 205 of 318 disbursing voucher
        payments, and a number of procurement and colleotion transactions.
      W We also evaluated the results of administrative examinations of pay
        and  ravel transactions for the sze  period made by -the Ban Diego
        Navy Regional Finance Center.

           . Your disbursing activities were generally satisfactory although
        we believe improved controls are needed in processing travel pay*
        ments.  We found 46 erroneous payments totaling $6o6.  Of these, 36
        errors involved travel.  We also found tbree errors in leave and
        tax reporting.  The errors are summarized in the appendix.  Details
        on the more significant errors are included in the enclosed inforM.
        tion copies of our notices of exception and Inform.  inquiries.

             Administrative examiners reviewed 38 pay records and 89 milia
        tary travel vouchers for the same period and reported 12 errors
        totaling $756.   leven of these errors involved travel payments.

             Since our review was limited to examining records available
        at the Finance Center, we were unable to determine why the mistakes
        occurred *However,  disbursing personnel apparently need to strength-
        on their controls over travel payments.  You may wish to use our
        report to inquire into the causes of the errors and to take any
        corrective actions necessary.

             We would appreciate your comments on our observations along
        with advice of actions taken.  Please let us know if you need addi-
        tional details.
