RE: REWARD
At approximately 10:15 AM, on 4/26/72, a male who did not identify himself, telephonically contacted the office to inquire as to any reward being offered for the money paid in the hijack of NW Airline Flight #305.
He was informed that the POST INTELLIGENCER has a $5,000 reward as part of their "Secret Witness" program.
The caller, who appeared to be a young coherent man, said he wondered if there would be any reward in addition to that $5,000 for the return of the money asking whether or not insurance company's who insure such large sums don't automatically pay a 10% reward of any money returned. He was advised that if he could provide information which would assist in identifying and locating the hijacker that although the writer could make no promises of any reward, it was indicated that there was a good possibility that it would be worth more than the PIs $5,000. The caller stated that he had been told by a friend whom he refused to identify that a short time after the hijacking, this person allegedly saw a parachute in the trees and the caller indicated that it was an area where there was lots of snow.
The writer asked the caller if he would like to have some help. I asked him if I should bring a shovel. He answered that I might need a shovel to bury the hijacker, if he is still hanging in the trees; however, he further refused any help.
The caller did not say when the information was received or from whom. Attempts were made to have him come to the Seattle Office and give us the information he says he possesses and let us make the search but he said he would either check it out first himself, after consulting a friend of his, who is apparently privy to the same
