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.

IF LEADS WERE SET OUT TO CHECK MANIFESTS OF ALL AIRLINES SHOWING ARRIVALS HONOLULU DURING APPROPRIATE TIME IT IS DOUBTFUL THAT LOCATING PASSENGER WITH PHONETIC NAME OF [REDACTED] WOULD ASSIST IN LOCATING HIM IN HONOLULU IN VIEW OF VAST NUMBER OF RESORT HOTELS AVAILABLE IN WAIKIKI AND POSSIBILITY CALLER COULD REGISTER UNDER ANOTHER NAME, THROUGH REPORTED DISTINCTIVE MUSTACHE AND ACCENT WOULD BE OF SOME ASSISTANCE. THEREFORE UACB NO SPECIFIC LEADS BEING SET OUT BY HONOLULU TO AUXILLARY OFFICES.
HONOLULU WILL BE ALERT TO DEVELOPMENT OF ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING THE ABOVE WHICH WOULD PERMIT ADDITIONAL LOGICAL INVESTIGATIVE INQUIRY WHICH WILL BE HANDLED WITHOUT DELAY.
BUREAU AND OFFICE OF ORIGIN WILL BE ADVISED OF RESULTS OF HONOLULU INQUIRIES. ARMED AND DANGEROUS. END
