6J?c~6;?,.4Q The interviewBH 157-352
ADIINISTRATIVE:
It is noted that considerable naterial, the subject'
matter of GREEEBGHBS investigation and reporting, is contained
herein. This considered necessary and appropriate inasmuch
as the widespread Klan intensification and interview program,
which was undertaken as part of the GREENBOIB8 Special,
naturally included investigative coverage of and interviews
with those individuals previously under investigation in the
BAPBOIB matter. It is felt that certain information relating
to selected suspects and individuals who are primarily of
BAPBOIB interest, even though the information was obtained
during the GREEHBOHBS Special, properly sheuld be reflected
in this report. .-
Investigative period reflected herein prior to date
of BAPBOIB report of 5-20-65 due to receipt of results of
investigation in form suitable for inclusion in report after
preparation of above-mentioned report.
As was the practice in preparation of previous
sufficient copies are being retained at Birmingham
in order that USA, Birmingham, may be furnished copies of 1
pertinent reports at the proper time. Hone are being dissemi-
nated pending Bureau instructions.reports,
ected on pages
80 through 84 in this reference to a polygraph
tion of
n behalf
The rminghan Off
Section BB, Paragraph 9, pages 14-14a, Manual of Instructions,
relating to polygraph examinations and reporting of same.
However, taken in the entire context, it would appear these
instructions and reporting instructions apply only to Bureau
administered polygraph examinations. The interview reported
herein, in essence, reflects the information obtained from
the interview of a third party having no Bureau'connection,
who, with the aid of a polygraph, interviewed an individual
of significant interest to this investigation. For the above
reasons, this interview is set out in the details of this report.

suspects in the Bapbomb case are definitely involved
in Greenbonba, or any other information that would indicate
that these cases should be consolidated. The Bivision

BAPBOHB case. Investigative activities are_combined and
the entire results of all investigation are being fnrnishe
to the Bureau in the correspondence emanating from the '
Birmingham Office under the GREENBOMBS caption. _l i 1 - "
The third paragraph of referenced Bureau teletype
to Eirmingham, ll/16/65, regarding submission of weekly '
airtel summaries reflecting investigation completed the
previous week and including brief comments as to leads._
outstanding and projects contemplated, was initially by _
interpreted on receipt at the Birmingham Office as per- l
taining to the sunaries being prepared as a regular practice
in the GREENBOMBS case.
The only available information appropriate for
submission under the BAPBOMB caption,which would be separate
and distinct from that being furnished the Bureau in the
GREENBOHBS summaries and reports, would be that informant
information of the nature contained in the accompanying
and previously submitted LH's. Any report prepared under
the BAPBQMB caption would necessarily include only that
information obtained as a result of investigation by the
GREENBOHS squad and previously reported under that caption,
causing thereby duplicate reporting.
The Bureau is requested to advise if it is desired
that all investigative activity relating to Birmingham '
bombings continue to be reported under the GREEHBOHS caption
as has been the practice in the past, or whether separate_ -
and mutuallx exclusive reports and summaries be submitted
under BAPBOHB, which would of course require the division
'of the Agent personnel now conducting investigation as one '
squad; into separate BAPBOHB and GREENBOHBS_squads,_r_Ie .

ADMINISTRATIVE:
Huch of the information contained herein is the
subject matter of reports being submitted under the GREENBOHBS
caption inasmuch as for a period of several months efforts of
all Agents conducting investigation in the Birmingham bombings
were consolidated and results of investigation conducted were
furnished under GREENBOHBS caption.
Investigation reflected herein prior to date of
last report submitted in this matter necessary because results
of that particular investigation not received in time for
inclusion in last Birmingham report.
x The first section of instant report contains infor-
nation regarding oiiicial certiiication of deaths or victims
of the church bombing, this aspect of investigation being
included in a separate section of instant report since it
appears this has not been done in the past and will facilitate
location of necessary information regarding victims should it
be required in the future.
As has been the practice previously, an extra copy
of instant report is being retained at Birmingham in the
event prosecution is instituted in the future and it becomes
necessary to furnish appropriate USA with a copy.
It is noted that the most pertinent information
tending to implicate previously developed suspects in the
church bombi b n furnished by Birmingham informants
0 tio of th i fo t i pera n ese n rman s s
on of value is being furnished on
a regular basis. Results of contact of these informants not
being set out in the cover pages herein inasmuch as all
information on a current up-to-date basis has been furnished
the Bureau in letterhead memoranda form suitable for dissemi-
nation.
