OPTIONAL FORM NO. 10 MAY 1967 EDITION GSA FPMR (41 CFR) 101-11.6 UNITED STATES VERNMENT Memorandum DIRECTOR, FBI (100-449698) TO: FROM : SUBJECT: COUNTERINTELLIGENCE PROGRAM ReBuairtel 11/10/69 DATE: 12/12/69 Legat, Tokyo (105-4842) (RUC) NEW LEFT-JAPAN On December 5, 1969, [REDACTED] Tokyo, Japan, advised he had discreetly passed the Bureau draft of the article relating to the actual number of Americans who took part in the October 15, 1969, demonstration to his principal contacts among Japanese radio and TV commentators and Japanese newspaper reporters with the comment it was something which might assist them as background in any future writeups or discussion on the subject. R.L. For [REDACTED] said he received an appreciative reaction, and his sources indicated the material would be useful in interpretive presentations which may be prepared in the future. They felt to present the facts now so long after the actual demonstrations would have no impact, but that, as stated above, would be certainly useful W to them in their future commentary. [REDACTED] incidentally, personally felt the article was well written and contained data which will be helpful to him also in his dealing with the Japanese press. Tokyo will remain alert for any instances of utilization of the material and [REDACTED] has been requested to advise if any such use comes to his attention. Tokyo has reviewed local available press stories relative to this subject matter and has found no stories in point which would be suitable for forwarding to the North Vietnam Peace Delegation in Paris, France. UACB, no further action is being taken at Tokyo.
