                    MATTER OF: Don C. Brill


                    DIGEBT:

                         Since CAO is without uthority *: settle claims against the
                         Postal Service, contractor's cit ' for price ircrease under
                         Postal Service contrat is dismiused.

                         Don C. Brill has requested a price increase under a contract
                    for the lease of an office building to the Postal Service on the
                    grounds that coat. have substantially increlaed and it is a hard-
                    ship to perform the contract at the price stipulated in the contract.

                        Our Office will not render a decision on this matter since
                    the Postal Service is not:.uubject to our claims settlement authority.
                    Rather, 39 U.S.C. 5 401(8) (1970) vests the Postal Service with
                    authority to settle its own clains. Custer Development Corpocation,
