like many of the suspects in this case, is continually seeing
FBI Agents where none exist, perhaps prompted by the pangs of
conscience.
..... In addition to the mt *
the "iero"hone surveillance Waawagthesidence, it isfor only one s of eight hours. On the second evening the
installation was accidentally discovered by the telephone repairman
and upon learning of the discovery the Agent and all technical
equipment were removed from the monitoring point.
ACTION:

hoped that when tensions become severe enough statements
will be obtained from those less involved than the actual
perpetrators. . _ ;. . . ,*
In caption investigation, as well as other
investigations in the Birmingham Division, Agents havebeen specifically instructed to be most careful in '
interviewing suspects not to divulge any unnecessary
information to the person being interviewed. This has
been reiterated to insure that all Agents are fully aware
of the fact that interviews are for the purpose of
obtaining information rather than furnishing information.
_ The possibility of furnishing local authorities
with the details of the 12-25-56 bombing of Reverend
FRED SHUTTLESWORTH's house, together with various other
Past bombings, will be evaluated when investigation -

investigation of bombings in the Birmingham Division during
1963. The letter further directs this investigation toward
the installation of misurs on primary targets named in the
letter. The Bureau is aware that due to unavoidable circum-
stances the technical installations which had been installed
were located by these prime suspects and further efforts in
this field of the investigation were logically discontinued.
Another direction of the investigation set forth
in BUlet was to endeavor to improve the live informant
coverage of the suspects and possibly future action groups.

formed the primary objective, as mentioned above, was to
install several misurs, which would thereafter be monitored
by four members of the eight-man squad. Since this phase
of the investigation has been terminated, at least temporarily
and our present emphasis is on live informant coverage,
it is believed that seven men can adequately handle the
duties of the squad. Another factor to be considered is
that during the period the squad has been in existence,
many leads have been covered, numerous individuals inter-
viewed, and other investigation conducted, which limits
to a certain extent the amount of remaining investigation
to be handled.
UACB the Bapbomb squad will operate with seven
members rather than eight in the future.

Birmingham letter 10/ 1/ 64 advises that one of the
objectives of the eight-=man Bapbomb squad by Bulet 4/ 24/ 64 was
technical installations. Bulet 4/24/ 64 was based on memo Gale to
Mr. Tolson 4/23/64. ! All? microphone installations have been _92

solution of this case.
Frequent contacts have been maintained with informants
in this case and the information furnished by them which is
considered pertinent is being set forth on the administrative
