What does the scan show?
A person reads every report. Corrections are made by hand, to the data — titles, dates, names, which pages belong together — never to the scans, and they can take a while to appear.

A person telephoned 11/29/71 saying he was [REDACTED] [REDACTED] Montana. He said there had been consider- able information in the press and radio to the effect that the FBI had checked him out as one of the suspects in this matter. He wanted to know what we said about him.
I told [REDACTED] that the FBI in Seattle had said nothing to the press or the radio about [REDACTED]. He said he had already checked with the Butte Office and the Butte Office told him they had said nothing to the press or radio, but he wondered where it came from.
I told him I could not tell him but it was not the Seattle Office. He wanted to know if he could quote me on this. I told him I did not know who he was going to quote me to but the simple fact of the matter was that the FBI in Seattle did not release any information about him to the press.
