TO : SAC, SEATTLE (164-81) DATE: 12/3/71

FROM : ASAC PAUL R. BIBLER b6 b7C

SUBJECT: UNSUB, aka Dan Cooper; NW AIRLINES FLIGHT #305, PORTLAND TO SEATTLE, 11/24/71 CAA - HIJACKING; EXTORTION OO: SEATTLE

RE: SUSPECT [REDACTED]

---

REX SHRODER called from the Bureau and referred to this teletype from Cleveland to several offices on this suspect. He said it was their thinking at the Bureau that if this suspect was a good one, that we shouldn't have to to have all this collateral investigation conducted until we had shown the photo.

I told him that I agreed with him and He suggested we call Phoenix, Portland and Butte and tell them not to conduct their interviews until further advised by Seattle.

SHRODER also said if we got any kind of a break on this case, we should be sure and tell the Bureau so that they could prepare a national press release even before we file on anybody. I told him we would.

I called Phoenix and talked to the relief supervisor on the #2 Desk; to VINCE MC CARTHY at Butte and ASAC RUEHL at Portland and told them not to cover the lead in the above mentioned teletype until further advised by Seattle.
