Hole GIFTS"
TO HEALTH UNIT
RULED ILLEGAL
CHA, Inc, Hit by
Comptroller

Money advanced by the Home
Owners Loan Corporation to
finance the Group Health Asso-
citation, Incorporation, a corpora
ton formed to look after the
health of HOLC employees, has
been advanced without authority
Of law"
This finding, made public to-
day by the office Of the Comptrol.
Ter General Of the United States
in a letter to Senator Pat Mccar-
ran (DJ of Nevada, dealt a blow
to an organization which has been
called by medical authorities a
step toward socialized medicine
and which is now under investi-
cation by the District Corporation
Counsel.
SS7,S57 GIFT" CITED
The ruling, made by r. N. FL
lott, acting comptroller general,
revealed that the HOLC already
has given to the health gfoup, OF
has allowed it to incur expenses
through Government books of
$37,S75y although itpreYiously had
been announced that only $780, 900
had been given to the group and
that another $4,000 was to be
given next year.
Senator McCarran, who had en-
tered the picture through belief
that money was being expended
by the sHOLC without authority
of law and who has protested that
he does not question the opera
ton Of the health group, declared
on receipt of the letter from El-
lott today:
II shall do everything to stop
this practice of bureaus and de-
partments using money for pur.
poses for which they were not
appropriated.
UP TO CONGRESS ONLY
Congress alone has the right
to appropriate. We are either
a constitutional government or
not. If we are, then Congress
has the right to appropriate
funds. If any agency takes
upon itself to divert funds as it
pleases, then Congress has lost
its power. But don't believe
Congress has lost its power"
The Acting Comptroller General
made an investigation Of the rela-
tionship of the Hole to the
health group. He recited the &C.
tions of the Hole which led to
the disbursement Of funds and
the granting of privileges to the
group.
ELLIOTT'S RULING
And then he declared:
ut has been the long-estab-
lished rule in the Federal serV-
ice that the functions of the
agencies Of the United States
are restricted to those activi-
ties authorized by general or
81 Sal enactments of the Con-
gress, and where an activity in
wolves the expenditure of moneys
available therefor in no uncer.
tain terms if such activity Is to
be accepted as lawful.
\ Accordingly. it must be con-
cluded in the instant matter
that the disbursements and other
costs were made and incurred
