On 4/22/72 I called Asst. Director BATES in Washington.
I pointed out to him that undoubtedly the [redacted] trip that was made to Seattle by KARL FLEMING, [redacted] since we had interviewed a guy by the name of [redacted] who admits acquaintance with FLEMING. He is the same individual whom FLEMING called early on the morning of 2/23/72 and in view of [redacted] revelations, would suggest possibly that much of [redacted]
I advised him that we were completely justified in interviewing FLEMING to determine identity of person in Seattle, who was photograph by [redacted] since we had clearly established details of this matter completely independently of ifnormation furnished to Mr. HENRY PETERSON by [redacted]
I said we could play around with this all day but I thought the logical approach was to interview FLEMING at once.
He called back and advised FLEMING should be interviewed by Los Angeles without any reference whatsoever to [redacted] but deal entirely with FLEMING's trip to Seattle by him, [redacted] [redacted] as well as [redacted] and we desired to know immediately the identity of the person whom he interviewed in Seattle together with details of the interview.
