SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE CHAIRMAN
10 April 1958
SUGGESTION NO. 58-344: dated 6 February 1958
GS-4, Clerk
Dispatch & Pouch Section, RI, t>D/P
A. Summary of Suggestion
Suggester proposes using a control system forithe Non-Ac-
countable Material Manifest; (i.e., number manifests consecutively
starting with #1 each day.)
B. Summary of Evaluations
On 5 March 1958, Deputy Chief, EE Support Staff,
stated:
"As non-accountable material, there is really no reason
for control. Any numbering for control purposes would
appear to defeat the primary purpose of the system. It
is recommended that the suggestion not be adopted."
On 12 March 1958, Chief, RI,
stated:
"The subject suggestion has been reviewed in the Records
Integration Division and is considered to be unworthy of
adoption.
"The Non-Accountable Material Manifest, Form 1236, was
adopted as a convenient means of transmitting material
to the field for which accountability need not be main-
tained, but which required instructions for disposition.
The placing of this transmittal under control would tend
to defeat its purpose, and subject the procedure to
abuse in that material which is of an accountability
nature would be forwarded via this form...."
On 1 April 1958, Chief, RI stated:
"Experience with the Non-Accountable Material Manifest,
Form 1236, has indicated that users may find a numbered
form useful for limited control. Hence, a request has
been placed for the form to be pre-numbered at its next
printing. LForms Management has advised us that these
have been ordered,
"It is believed that the revising of the form in this
manner is not an implementation of the entire idea pre-
sented in the subject suggestion inasmuch as a formal
control system is not anticipated, nor desired. However,

Sugg. No. 58-344 Contd.
"since the basic intent of the suggester's idea might be
served by pre-numbering the form, the suggester should
be given some recognition.
"The savings resulting from the above would by intangible
of slight benefit and limited application."
