TO: DIRECTOR, FBI (164-2111)

FROM: SAC, SEATTLE (164-81) (P)

SUBJECT: NORJAK OO: SEATTLE

Re Bureau airtel to Seattle et al, dated 5/5/76.

Enclosed for Minneapolis Office is one (1) copy of referenced communication.

Minneapolis is requested to immediately contact officials at Northwest Orient Airlines in effort to determine their interest in possibly providing the necessary reward money referred to in referenced communication. In contacting Northwest Orient Airlines officials concerning this reward, Minneapolis should bear in mind that the greater the reward the more public interest generated. If Northwest Orient Airlines is not interested in providing such a reward, the insurance carrier that reimbursed Northwest for the $200,000 taken by Unsub in this matter should be contacted in a discreet manner and their interest in possibly providing this reward determined.

All other receiving offices should make and forward to Seattle a list of the names and places of publication of all magazines and newspapers that might possibly be interested in publishing serial number listings.
