At 2:35 PM, today SRA THOMAS J. MANNING, Longview
RA, telephonically contacted the writer and furnished the
following information:
At approximately 2:20 PM today SA MANNING received
an anonymous call at the Longview RA from an individual who
according to MANNING, spoke as an intelligent individual.
This person asked MANNING what the reward in the "D.B. COOPER"
case amounted to. MANNING related what the reward in this
case is, whereupon the caller stated, "That's not enough"
and hung up.
At approximately 2:23 PM, the same individual re-
contacted MANNING at the RA and stated that he has observed
the lower portion of a human body hanging from a parachute
stating that he can see this through binoculars from his
residence. SA MANNING encouraged the caller to give him
more information but the caller refused to say anything
more except that he would be into the Longview RA in about
an hour and a half with some physical evidence in the captioned
case.
I asked MANNING if he had any idea who the caller
might be and MANNING said his voice sounds familiar. Further
that the caller stated he knows MANNING by sight and in fact
has been interviewed by MANNING in the RA.
SA MANNING was relating the above information to
me in the event this materializes and it is necessary to
saturate the area with Agent personnel for a search of the
terrain.
