                    MEMORANDUM FOR THE FILES

                    SUBJECT:   Treatment of Survivors


                        1. MANSON   confirms that all five of the survivors who appeared
                    before the Taylor Committee received their $250. 00 bonus in Miami.
                    However, he admitted that they have not received the kind of attention
                    they should have received from AMIRON and AMBUD.  This probably
                    due to the antagonism which has always existed between the personali-
                    ties of AMIRON/AMBUD   and the camp leaders. MANSON  is very con-
                    scious of the need for careful handling of survivors and returnees and
                    is planning to come up with specific recommendations on this subject.

                       2.  I asked Joe Langan to attempt to get from the five survivors a
                   statement of any unresolved complaints which they may have. Joe said
                   that three of them were leaving for New York City and the other two for
                   Miami  almost immediately. He said each had been given $500 in addition
                   to the $125. 00 which they had received for expenses, and the $250. 00
                   bonus received in Miami. Joe has arranged a channel of communication
                   between these men and ourselves for future use. He feels the granting of
                   the extra $500 will become known and that equal treatment will be demanded
                   by other survivors and returnees.
