ReBuairtel, 5/5/76.
Inquiry with the two major newspapers in San
Francisco, revealed they had no interest in publishing the
serial numbers of the $20 bills used in captioned case.
This conclusion was made even after this office attempted
to point out how such publication of the bills could
increase their circulation. After one of the newspapers had said
it had no interest in publishing the serial numbers, this infor-
mation was passed on to the other paper to consider the exclusive-
ness it would have in publishing the serial numbers. This
approach also proved unproductive.
Contacts with other newspapers in this Division were
also met with negative results.
