were being fully used to improve USIA manage-
ment Agency officials were not adequately ad-
dressing and resolving management deficiencies
identified by auditors and inspectors, and the

tion activities especially needed improvement in
developing and using criteria, standards, and
methods which are understood by and acceptable
