Dear [REDACTED]

I appreciate your thoughtfulness in writing to me and forwarding your suggestion concerning the distribution of the list of currency paid in the hijacking of Northwest Airlines Flight 305.

While undoubtedly there is considerable merit to your suggestion, we have not been in the practice of selling the material we distribute. We are trying to get this published through the news media. Whether we succeed or not will be determined in time.

Sincerely yours,

[signature]

J. E. MILNES Special Agent in Charge
