IN ORDER TO SECURE MAXIMUM DISTRIBUTION OF THE SERIAL NUMBERS
OF THE MONEY PAID IN THIS CASE, [REDACTED]
SEATTLE TIMES, SAC CONTACT, HAS BEEN APPROACHED BY ME TO DETERMINE
IF THE PAPER WOULD BE WILLING TO PUBLISH THIS LIST.
[REDACTED] HAS ADVISED THAT A STUDY OF THE COST OF THIS
MATTER REVEALS THAT LABOR COSTS IN COMPOSING WOULD RUN APPROXIMATELY
SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS AND THE NEWS PRINT COST WOULD RUN APPROXIMATELY
ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS. SHOULD THEY PUBLISH THIS AT THE PUBLIC SERVICE
RATE, THE COST WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY THREE THOUSAND DOLLRAS AND AT
THE REGULAR COMMERCIAL RATE, IT WOULD RUN APPROXIMATELY FIVE
THOUSAND DOLLARS. HE HAS ADVISED THAT BY PROVIDING A REPRINTED MAT,
THE COMPOSITION COST WOULD NOT BE ELIMINATED SINCE THEIR UNION
CONTRACT WOULD REQUIRE THAT THE COST BE PAID NONETHELESS. [REDACTED]
[REDACTED] HAS INQUIRED IF THE BUREAU WOULD BE WILLING TO PAY THE
ACTUAL COST UP TO SIXTEEN HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR PUBLISHING THIS LIST.
