OPTIONAL FORM NO. 10 JULY 1973 EDITION GSA FPMR (41 CFR) 101-11.6 UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT Memorandum

TO : SAC, SEATTLE (164-81) (P) DATE: 6/10/76

FROM : SA [REDACTED]

SUBJECT: NORJAK OO: SEATTLE (BUfile 164-2111)

Re memo of SA [REDACTED] dated 5/14/76.

---

On 6/4/76, [REDACTED] for the Yakima Herald-Rupublic Newspaper, a daily newspaper of wide circulation in the Yakima area, advised as follows:

With regard to the FBI's request for space to run a list of ransom bill serial numbers and an accompanying article, [REDACTED] stated that his paper would probably participate in this if the entire article, including the list of serial numbers, was not extensive and could be set forth in one column of one page. [REDACTED] stated that should the printing of the serial numbers take an extensive amount of space to set forth, it would not be practical for the newspaper to run that type of article without reimbursement. [REDACTED] concluded by saying that, should the article be of reasonable size, he would coordinate having the article printed in the Yakima Herald-Republic on a one-time basis during November, 1976.

For information of Case Agent, there are no other newspapers or periodicals of significant circulation in the Yakima area; therefore, no additional contacts were made.
