Comptroller General Lindsay G.
Warren yesterday declared the
General Accounting Once il1 the
last decade collected an amount
equal to more than twice the cost
Iof operation Of the GAO during
the same period.
The head of the GAO, In Q
luncheon talk to the Wornan's Ma
Itional Democratic Club. declared:
IaAs one result Of our activities
from ls4l through December 81
1851. $76O million has been col
|lected." "
He said this amount Of money
had been Illegally or improperly
paid out, and added, 1T is q fair
statement to say that little Of 1t
would have ever been recovered
except for the GAO. The amount
|of our collections Is more than
twice what it has cost to operate
the GAO during the same period. "
The need for the GAG, which is
the agency Of Congress for check
ing ON the Governments financial
transactions, has never been
greater, Mr.. Warren said.
Pointing to the eountry's de-
tense program with its accom-
|panying expenditures. he said,
|aThe existance Of the ONCE with
|proper and necessary powers to
maintain q control and watch
over these expenditures is an es-
|sential part Of our democratic
form Of Government
Mr.. Warren called attention to
several instances In which the
GAO had recovered money for
the country and contributed to
more efiicient and economical gov
ernment."
He cited the case Of the palm

reation center for military per-
sonel, Involving an expense Of

IS: 900 accounts Of single officers in
the Armed Services claiming de-
pendent parents.
where recoveries have been
made, they average $l,700 per
case" he declared. -
Mr.. Warren said people tend to
forget that in the final analysis
the Governments property and
money "are our own"
This attitude, he pointed out,
has led him many times to sug-
gest that as . part Of the l1eces-
sary education for government
service at West Point. Annapolis
or anywhere else where the Gov
ernment pays the freight. there
should be a compulsory six-day-a-
week. full-time course on The

In q discussion Of corruption in
the Government, Mr.. Warren said
he was terribly disillusioned by

exhibited during World War II by
those who dealt with the Govern

something done about some Of the

I alley Beatty
Group Presenting
fropicana' AT
jackson COLLEGE

The Jackson College Lyceum
Association is presenting Tally
Beatty and his group in "Tropi-
cana, Monday, March 3, at 500
P. M. in the Dansby Hall Audi
forum.
The mounting excitement with
which American audiences have
responded to the "Tropicana" re-
vue is, in the final analysis, a
tribute to its founder, guiding
spirit and leading dancer-Talley
Beatty. On stage, surrounded
though he may be by the brillance
and pulsating vigor Of the perform
ance, he nevertheless dominates
the action. His superb artistry and
complete Indignation of purpose
are almost Immediately felt and
weave a spell of fascination that
holds an audience tightly in its
grip.
At no time is this quality more
deeply experienced than in the
solo, "Mourner's Bench" that
forms part of the suite entitled
Southern Landscape Here, or
darkened stage whose only prop.
erty is bench, Beatty expresses
through his dancing a sorrow Sc
penetrating that it never fails tC
stir the audience profoundly. A
brief episode in the suite, it is
nonetheless its focal point and is
completely evovative of the con
summate artistry which character
ICES the work Of this dancer.
Whatever the mood in "Tropi
cana" this direct rapport with the
audience is always present. The
more festive dances, whether they
have their sources in Cuba, Brazi
or the United States, spread {
rhythmic contagion to which tn,
most hardened soul in the audi
forum cannot help respond anC
with which in some way he identi
fies himself. Here again, the in
finite variety of movement assert
itself directly, creating a sensuou
world of its own and building on,
emotional response upon anothe
until the total effect is overwhelm
ing.
! Wherever "Tropicana" has beer
seen, on either side of the Atlantic
Ocean, the effect has been tn,
same. 1t is as if the continuous I'm
folding of the performance is lik
the casting of some mighty spell
difficult to shake off even when i
is over.
