                             STATEMENT OF
               THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES
                              BEFORE THE
                 SUBCOMMITTEE ON ECONOMY IN GOVERNMENT
                       JOINT ECONOMIC COMMITTEE

                            January 4. 1971


Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee:

     As requested in your letter of November 25, 1970, we have assembled

a statement showing the various types and categories of assistance which

contribute to the military capability of foreign countries. At your

request we have, to the extent possible, placed a dollar value on each

of the program categories for the past six fiscal years.

     In order to prepare this statement it was necessary to gather data

from a number of sources within the Executive Branch which we have set

forth in the following categories:

     i.   Military Assistance Grants

     2.   Foreign Military Sales Through U.S. Government Channels

     3.   U.S. Commercial Sales of Military Articles

     4.   Turnover of Real and Personal Property to Other Nations, and

     5.   U.S. Economic Assistance Related to Internal Security
          and Common Defense Purposes

I believe it would be most helpful to you if I proceed to explain each

line item and what it represents.

     First, however, it might be well to describe briefly how the

Executive Branch is organized to administer assistance programs for

other countries.
