This could account for the dincrepancy betweon the amount of money now hold in trust and the total amount of money paid ‘from 1901-1965 since the new trusteeship was not created until much of the money had been spent. In order to protect the intorests of the prisoner, some procedure ‘will probably be devised by which a long-range projection can bo mado for actuary purposes and the trusteoship torminated, Recommendations for handling this case will be submitted to JMWAVE in tho near future, ‘ 3 3. In order to arrive at tho exact umount of monoy to be saved by tho immedinte and future termination of payments to certain dependents, a definite criteria must be established concerning adjustments for secondary depondents when the first depondent has been terminated, In discussions between fllen F, MARGANY, during her recent TDY to JMWAVE, and Humphrey O, TIMANUS, it was MARGANY's understanding that the procedure ig to raise the second dependent to tho status of firat dependent when the Original first dependant is terminated for cause. For example, the first child would receive the amount. originally paid to the mother, instead of the customary $50 paid to a second dependent, and the third dependent would thén become the. second dependent and receive $50 instead of the original $25, This vrocedure was not: followed in case # 44 where the second dependent payment remained at $50 after the remarriage of the mother, Case # 25 where child, now gole dependent, does not receive full Ist dependent Payment, nor in the contentious CUERVO-RUBIO cage (# 54) where an attempt to hold the second dependent to $50 precipitated considerable unpleasantness. Howevor, in cage # 86, the procedure of raising the payment level of the second and third dependents aftor the reunrriage of the mother, was followed, Logically, the termination of payments to dependents in any of the top categorios would automatically lead to an adjustment in status and payment to not only children, but in somo cases parents as well, . depending on their position of inheritance. A clarification of Station's past proceduro, any known committments to dependents, and present views as to firm criteria to be followed in such cases is urgently requested, Not only is Such a fixed criteria. necessary to determine the amount of savings involved in the recommended immediate termination, and to provide accurate. long-range figures for tho actuary stucy, but also for the purpose of avolding any possible repercussions such as occurred in the CUERVO-RUBIO cage, Request Station cable reply.
