This confirms our telephone conversation this date.

At approximately 12:05 p.m. this date the writer received a telephone call in the Spokane RA from a young man who refused to reveal his identity but who advised as follows:

He first wanted to know if there is a reward for the hijack money. He said he can take us to it and even to the room next to where it is maintained. He said he is concerned about prosecution himself as an accessory or having knowledge. He has a bad record. He was in jail when the hijacking took place. He said about 95% of the money is available but he could not tell me how much money in dollars is involved which might indicate he does not know how much was paid in ransom. He wants guarantee of non-prosecution and no publicity. He said the money is not in Spokane and not in this State. He said he is interested in "hard cash" and wants to know how much he can get.

The caller sounded coherent and clear and intelligent. He was advised that no figure of reward could be told to him now but that if he assisted in this matter he would be reasonably and profitably compensated.

Later this afternoon, the writer was informed by [REDACTED] the "Spokane Daily Chronicle" that at approximately 12:30 p.m. GORDON COE, City Editor of the "Chronicle" received a phone call from a young man who apparently is the same person that called the writer.

This person told COE that he knows where the money from the hijacking (he specifically mentioned Portland to Seattle plane) is; that he is not from Spokane; that he is willing to give the paper the story on how it developed;
