Dear Mr. Cliff:

     We have made a review for the settlement of accounts of accountable
officers at the Washington Office, Forest Service, Department of Agri-
culture.  Our review 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, completed in March 1970, consisted of an evaluation of
the administrative procedures and internal controls relative to receipts
and disbursements of funds and included such tests of financial trans-
actions and records as we considered appropriate. We  did not review
major program or payroll operations.

     We found the administrative procedures and internal controls to be
generally effective, and the selected financial transactions which we
reviewed were processed in a satisfactory manner.  Certain minor defi-
ciencies which we noted during our review were discussed with members
of your staff who indicated that corrective action would be taken.


     We wish to acknowledge the courtesies and cooperation
our representatives during the review.
