B) – I recruited 4 expendable colored pushers to work the bottom-rung distribution in West LV. They've got menial casino jobs 8e were happy to get the gigs. I gave them copies of the prey. ment'd junkie list had them supply the junkies with free pops taken from our 1st stateside shipment of 1/9/65. The "free samples" got them anxious for more. I told my 4 guys to push "free tastes" on anybody who asked, colored only. They got a lot of takers we got a lot of steady "Clients" (Milt C.'s word, not mine).

C) – I lean on the 4 guys periodically up to now I'm convinced that they (1) haven't stolen kadre merchandise; (2) haven't sold to non-Negro clients; (3) haven't snitched off kadre or Tiger Kab personnel; (4) haven't bragged to their lowlife pals implicated kadre or Tiger Kab personnel will not (5) do so if they get popped, which is unlikely, because (6) Milt has greased the LVPD Sheriff's Narco squads has secured a hands-off policy, if any 1 of the 4 is popped, the plan is to bail them out clip them before they talk too much.

So, (7), everything is buffered. Tiger drivers deliver the merchandise to drop points the pushers pick it up, distribute it funnel the money back the same way, The drivers are all solid pros will not talk if busted. On his one stateside run, Wayne periodically spot-tailed the pushers determined that they weren't skimming or fucking up other ways. Wayne's got an evil reputation on the west side it keeps the pushers on a tight leash.

D) – As you know, Wayne's made one rotation from Saigon sent the 2nd shipment (4 ibs) stateside on 3/2/65. Rogers, Relyea, Mesplede, Guery Elorde remain in Laos oversee the M-base production at Tiger Kamp (while you the other guys who concocted this whole thing roam around S.E. Asia puffing your clandestine shit). The production level at Tiger Kamp remains high the January-February harvest beat the chemists' estimates. Tran's methedrine ran out (mixed blessing-it killed 3 slaves) we had a slow week (late Feb.) while the slaves smoked heavy amounts of "0" rode out withdrawals. We've got to burn the fields in April to prepare the soil for the fall planting, but we've got enough backstock of M-base to see us through to the next harvest, because the 3 refineries were overstocked when we raided consolidated last November. So far, my rubber-bullet policy is working, because the ex-ARVNs ex-Congs continue to feud. Mesplede is staging weekly Cong-ARVN boxing matches (slave cornermen referees) which helps blow off steam boosts morale.

E) – You were right about the "cleanup." The Can Lao took out the den below the lab ( supposedly 600 others) but now that the initial troop arrival bullshit is over, things are back to normal. None of Chuck's Saravan-to-Saigon merchandise flights have been messed with at either end Customs has not checked any of his cargoes. The den below the lab the Go-Go have reopened Wayne still tests dosage levels on the resident heads. Tran said Khanh's stopped making anti-dope statements everyone in Saigon seems distracted by the troops coming in the way the war is flaring up. You were right, it feels like the buildup is giving us added operational cover.

F) – The pipeline's running A-OK. So far, no Customs checks glitches flying out of Tan Son Nhut no trouble at Neffis. My friend Littell surveilled the 1/9/65 shipment from Nellis to the Agency drop-off point thru to the final "donation" point at the Nevada Guard Armory. Milt C. has been transporting the merchandise from the drop-point to Tiger Kab. It's a foolproof system the Guard is thrilled with Mr. Hughes' "donations."

G) – Some unexpected expenses came up on Milt's end, but aside from that, we're $182,000 up from our Vegas profits on the 1/9 batch 3/2 batch so far. I'm ready to rotate Chuck, Laurent Flash stateside have them scout exile camps, assess the troops get going on an arms conduit to the ones they choose. Bob Relyea leaves the Army to work for the Feds in May, he'll be situated near the Gulf. He'll utilize his gun connections assist Chuck, Laurent Flash in funneling to the exiles.

That's it. I'm anxious to move on the Cuban end. Let's put all this caution budgetary constraint shit aside get going.

Viva la Causa!

Penance. Tithe. Counterthrust.

He obeyed Mr. Hoover. He taped Bayard Rustin. He rabbitized. He performed new betrayals-RABBIT ops-Mr. Hoover's counter tithes.

He traveled for work. He worked for Drac and Jimmy. He worked for Drac and the Boys. He flew D.C. to Miami. He flew Chicago to L.A.

He cruised banks. He set up new accounts. He used fake ID. He dumped cash. He cut checks. He tithed the SCLC.

Counter ops:

Skim fees. Embezzlement. Let's declaw BLACK RABBIT.

He drained Drac. He took small bites-little rabbit nips. It worked. The skim plan worked. Counter cash accrued.

_He_ worked.

He worked for Jimmy Hoffa. He filed briefs. He fought two convictions. He dunned the Boys. He bagged two mill for Jimmy's Hope Chest.

New hope. Nonhope. No hope. There were no bribable jurors. There were no bribable courts.

Mr. Hoover had pull. Mr. Hoover liked Jimmy. Mr. Hoover could help. Don't brace him or beg him. Don't incur more indebtedness-yet.

He worked for Drac. He filed briefs. He bought time. He needed twelve months-sixteen tops.

Let Drac dump his stock then. Let Drac get his stash. Let Drac inject Las Vegas.

Fred Otash worked.

Fred Otash culled. Fred Otash sifted. Fred Otash scandalized. Let's raid files. Let's find dirt. Let's utilize.

The files existed: _Confidential_/_Rave_/_Whisper_/_Lowdown_ and _Hush-Hush_. The files existed. The files eluded. The files dirtified.

Bugs dirtified.

Littell hung Vegas bugs. Fred Turentine assisted. They bugged hotel rooms. They trapped dirt. They trapped legislators.

Three so far-three cheaters/three whorehounds/three drunks.

Feds manned the bug posts-two agents for three months. Mr. Hoover got bored. It was dirt insufficient. Call it a dirt deficit.

Mr. Hoover pulled the Feds. Fred filled in for them. Fred dirtified. Fred stored dirt. Fred aged dirt. Fred saved dirt for Pete.

Three legislators and one Pete. Compliance guaranteed. We've got the board votes. We've got YOU now. Pledge your support.

Watch us abridge antitrust laws. Watch our Vegas spree. Watch hotel profits plunge. Watch skim ops soar. Watch Littell invest skim money.

We've got the "real" books. We've got the goods. We've got the buyout stats. We co-opt businesses. We funnel cash. We build foreign casinos.

The Boys hoard. The Boys divert. The Boys avoid obstructions-_usually_.

Sam G. was obstructed now. It was recent news. Sam was in jail in Chicago. A grand jury subpoenaed him. Bobby paneled it. Bobby was AG then.

Sam refused to testify. Sam took the Fifth. The judge cited him.

Contempt of Court-Cook County Jail-for the grand-jury term. One year-jail to spring '66.

The judge ragged on Sam. The judge aped Bobby. Bobby ragged Sam in '57. Bobby was Senate counsel then. Bobby was a senator now.

He played his Bobby tapes. He toured the Senate. He prowled the gallery. He watched Bobby. He read the Senate Record. He tracked Bobby's words through.

Bobby debunks bills. Bobby lauds bills. Bobby never mentions the Boys. Bobby presses for civil rights. Bobby lauds Dr. King.

Littell taped Bayard Rustin. Bayard praised King. Littell met Bayard sans tape. Bayard waxed sad that day. Bayard showed him the letter.

"King, look into your heart."
