Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee:

     We are pleased to appear here today to discuss the results of our

recent review of the economic opportunity programs, which was undertaken

pursuant to title II of the Economic Opportunity Amendments of 1967. The

results of our review were summarized in our report to the Congress dated

March 18, 1969 (B-130515).

     We understand that a particular interest of the   Committee  in these

hearings relates to the Job Corps program. Accordingly, Mr. Chairman, we

would like to summarize for you the results of our review of that program

and then respond to any questions you or other members of the Committee

may have.

     Our review included examinations of recruiting and screening activities

at selected locations, detailed examinations at nine Job Corps centers, and

analyses of post-Job Corps experience of terminated Corps members (those

whose enrollment was terminated) on a sample basis.



                                                                   ~9 6-
