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.

Re Seattle airtel to Bureau dated 5/12/76.
Contact with media outlets regarding requests as set forth in referenced airtel has determined that before media outlets will even consider printing a volume of serial numbers, the matter must be a current, constant highlight news interest (such as the first case), and must have a constant meaningful local interest to the readership.
There are no newspapers, magazines, or similar publications located within the Los Angeles Division that would be in a position to make space available to publish such a volume of serial numbers as involved in captioned case.
ARMED AND DANGEROUS.
