Dear Mo:

SITUATION:  Nibs aiding PC, Sanders, Kaufman, etc., in attack
on church.

containing letters between him and other attacks indicating
ARC-breaks.  Filmed interview scheduled to handle situation 
now and in the future.

HANDLING:  Investigation discloses her father's brother's
(Joe Cooper) involvement with Diamond Dealers Club,

about diamon syndicate in such a fashion that leak traces
back from Joe Cooper to Ted Cooper to Paulette, thus
cutting on of P.C.'s financial supports.

and business income that went into the thousands of dollars
that he had not reported.

including Kaufman, Cooper and Bernie Green, as they 
came from Channel 5 TV show in New York.  Cooper asked
agent if he was a Scientologists, he didn't answer, she
screamed "he is one of them", Green put magazine in 
front of his face, and Cooper told agent "When the
pictures come out in Freedom and so forth you'll be 
sued for invasion of privacy".  Such a big effect for
so little work.

unfavorable characteristics.  For use in future operation.
