I called the Bureau on 12/9/71 and talked to SA HENRY SHUTZ. I told him it was our feeling here that we should get cooperative newspapers to publish this bait list and to generate as much enthusiasm as we could among the public and perhaps somebody would come up with one of these $20 bills. I wondered if the Bureau had given considera- tion to instructing all SAC's to have this done.

He called back and said they were not going to do this because first, they did not think most newspapers would publish it; second, they did not want all SAC's to have the feeling that they had to get it published, which might cause a great deal of difficulty around the field. He said he thought their instructions were sufficient, that if we could arrange to get it published in our division, and if we wanted to call other offices on a selected basis, and see if the SAC's could work out some arrangement to publish it, he would leave that up to us. He definitely stated that we had authority to get the list published if we so desired.
