No. 889, 2258 & 58-325 20 November 1958 Chief, Records Management Staff, Management Staff Storage of Papers for Personnel Departing Overseas 1. Since 1954 there have been numerous suggestions on establishing an Agency repository for storing personal and quasi-personal papers of personnel departing for overseas stations. Analyses of these suggestions have Shown that the problem was twofold: (1) Safe storage of vital personal unclassified papers such as wills, marriage certificates, mortgages and insurance policies; and (2) safe storage of classified and unclassified papers of a personal or quasi-personal nature which the em- ployee will need to reestablish himself at headquarters. 2. Part one of the problem has been solved by the establishment in Casualty Affairs Branch of a repository for copies of vital personal papers. However, part two has never been fully resolved mainly because of differing opinions on the need for such a repository, and difficulty in pinpointing responsibility for its establishment. 3. Actually, as I see it, there shouldn't be any problem. There .14 a secure inexpensive repository for these inactive records--the Agency Records Center. Also, the screening of personal papers to determine whether the Agency has an obligation to store them can and should be done jointly by the employee and his Administrative, Personnel, or Records Officer as part of processing the employee for his overseas assignment. If it is determined that there are papers that should be stored for the employee, depending on their volume, arrangements can be made by the Operating Office to either transfer them to the Records Center officially, or hold them officially in office space. 4. I would appreciate your including this information in your briefing program for employees about to depart for overseas duty. I will also pass this information on to Operating Office Records Officers by sending them a copy of this memorandum.

This was arranged at the time of a recent reorganization so that personnel could be interchaaged freely between the two sections. The job description does not mention RPR by name. 2. At the time came up with this suggestion, he had been assigned to check out a machine noting of unmatched eapplement cards against the master RFR in order to deteemine just why they were unmatched, and to select the waster RFR cards latch were intended to be changed by the supplement. He was given this assignment for two reasons: (1) to get the job done and (2) to familiarize himself with the procedures involved, since it was anticipated that he, ea a member of the Special Projects Section, would be the one who would monitor these mentions. Therefore, RPR did become his official business. However, due to the fact that his idea had not been thought of before by his superiors or by others, it man considered beeendeels normal. duty. since he had been given a more cerieniriessigneent to -carry out in connection with the RFR.
