Result of examination:

It was concluded that Q52 through Q54 were prepared by the writer of Q49 through Q51, submitted by Los Angeles with a communication dated 9/25/72.

It could not be determined whether the writer of Q49 through Q54 was involved in the preparation of the other specimens received in this case, because of a lack of com- parable writing and distortion in portions of the material received in this matter.

No watermarks, indented writing, or other features were found on Q52 through Q54 which would be of value in determining the source of these specimens.

The submitted evidence was photographed and will be returned separately.
