The Foreign Nationalities Branch is engaged in reporting the political activities, sentiments and movements of some 35 ethnic groups represented in this country. It has been doing this with only a small staff. The expeTience of the Branch has demonstrated the use of contract facilities to be an efficient and economical method of operation. By purchasing information the Branch obtains the knowledge and services of 4 variety of persons with a real contribution to make to the work. To obtain the services of these persons by employing them, would require much greater expenditure. Contracts OSS 69 and 088 147 represent an expenditure of $12,000 and 0,000 respectively for the 1945 fiscal year. it is expected that the expenditure for the 1946 fiscal year will lie the same.

This sun is required over and above the $7,000 re- cently made available, and the present deficit of $5,500 was occasioned by the fact that when we inquired of Special Funds as to the necessary figure needed to satisfy our obligations up to and including the last day of June, we were informed that the aforementioned $7,000 would be sufficient. Obviously this figure fell far short and the additional $5,500 is now urgently needed to clear up all outstanding indebtedness at the Base on opeoial per diem, 4.

A request for 47,000 was placed lidith the Board of Review about three weeks ago. The Board approved and strongly reoommended allocation of this amount to the Director's office on the basis that this is for moneys and expenses incurred prior to the close of tne last fiscal year. 2. Originally we placed a request for 415,000, and we were allowed 08,000 of this amount. At the time tne 015,000 was requested we definitely determined that it would take 015,000 to en0 the fiscal year - for per diem, eta. We still need the 4,000 to pay per diem. (Lai. Dimond presently is holding over 4'1000 in expense accounts (per diem) which he cannot pay because we have no money, in special Funds.) LA-3' F 1 , 1 jilAilEEN Lt.
