[ADDRESS BLOCK BLACKED OUT]
Dear Mr. [BLACKED OUT]
Your letter of September 3, 1974, enclosing a copy of the October, 1974,
issue of your publication containing the article by William Hoffer has
been received, and it was thoughtful of you to make this available to me.
I deeply appreciate Mr. Hoffer's favorable observations about my
administration of the FBI.
Since this Bureau is involved in civil litigation with the organization to
which you refer, I am not in a position to comment in the ma[?]n[?]
requested by you.
Sincerely yours,
[stamped] C.M. Kelley
Clarence M. Kelley
