Re Seattle letter 12/13/71 transmitting copy of a letter received by the managing editor of the SEATTLE TIMES on 12/13/71, signed "D. B. COOPER."

On 12/14/71 SA BOB MATHESON called from the Bureau. He advised that the UPI carried an article today concerning a letter received by the LOS ANGELES TIMES, and wanted to know where the original of this letter could be located since Los Angeles advised they had a copy.

I told him that the SEATTLE TIMES likewise re- ceived a copy, as did the WASHINGTON POST and the NEW YORK TIMES, and that we had sent a wire to Los Angeles, New York and WFO to get the copy received by them.

While talking to SA MATHESON, I called [redacted] [redacted] at the SEATTLE TIMES, who had furnished the letter originally and he said he had given us everything they received.

I advised MATHESON that I suspected that very likely the original was still in the hands of the writer.
