   Dear

        This refors to your letter addressed to our Claims Division, which
   was received 'in this Office November i, 19:72, ¢oi=rknl your Claw for
   Lck leave you were denied at the time you waer separated from your
   posltion at Pueblo Ordanc Depot, Pueho,. Colorado, In 1945.

        in an effort to detenmine the marits of your claim we requested a
   report on the matter from the Dapaut of the A=V. From that report
   it is elear that the denial of your applicstion for terwinal sick leave
   was bosed on an adawnistratiw detormination that yowr physic-l coadi-
   flon at the time did not warrant its approval. Such a determinAtion was            .  .
   entirely in accordauce vith the estah lshed principle that the approval
   or disapprovat of an application for sick leave is within the discretion
   of an adnmnistrative agency. Accordingly, we find. no error in the
   action taken with respect to your sick leave in 1945 which would justify
   the adainistrative o~fee to restor you to the rolls for the purpose.
   of payment of stck leave.

        Insofar as the jurisdiction ot our Office to considsr your clam is
   concerned, the act of October 9, 1940, 54 Stat. l06,    Y-bur e- n.
   tion of those claims not received in our Office within 10 full years
   aftar accrual. Y-ur claim accrued in 1945. - cofy of the act is
enclosed.. ,

                                      Sincerely yours~
