Dear Colonel Knutson:

     We have made a review for  the settlement of accounts of the
certifying officers of the Wisconsin  State Headquarters, Selective
Service System, for the period  through June 30, 1970. The  review,
completed in October 1970 was made pursuant  to the Budget and
Accounting Act, 1921  (31 U.S.C. 53), and the Accounting and Auditing
Act of 1950  (31 U.S.C. 67).

     Our review, directed primarily  toward the settlement of the
certifying officers' accounts,  consisted of an examination of the
administrative procedures and internal  controls relating to the
receipt and disbursement of funds  and included such tests of
financial  tranractions as we considered appropriate.  Program opera-
tions were not included in this review.   In establishing the scope
of our review, we considered  the most recent internal audit of the
National Headquarters, Field Auditors  for the period (May 1966 to
May 1968).

     Our review disclosed a need  for improvement in a number of ad-
ministrative procedures and controls.  The matters  noted during our
review were discussed with you and members  of your staff.  Although
corrective action was initiated  or being considered with respect to
these matters they are summarized below  for your information.

     --mileage between travel itinerary  points is not shown on the
       travel vouchers and  the vouchers do not show evidence of
       administrative approval.

     --per diem claimed for  departure within 30 minutes prior to or
       after a quarter day is not  supported by a statement explain-
       ing the necessity  for the time of such departure or return.

                                                                       .   ......
