Porat € General Scalia, Office of Legal Counsel in the Department; bé
fi William ‘Hoiles, Counselo the Attorney General; Harry H. Wachtel, b7Cc
A attorney for Mrs. ‘Coretta “King and the estate of Martin Luther King, Jr. ;
Congressman Andrew Yc Young (D~Ga.); and District of Columbia Delegate
Walter E. Fauntroy.
Mr. Wachtel said that he represented Mrs. King personally
and the estate of Martin Luther King, Jr., in an effort to determine the
best course of action concerning certain file material believed to be in
possession of the FEI regarding Martin Luther King, Jr. He introduced
Congressman Young as the principal spokesman for their group.
Mr. Young said that he is personally acquainted with the
King children and his principal concern is to protect the reputation .
of their late father. He said that during the years in which the Southern
Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) was active under the leadership
of Martin Luther King, Jr., Young was a national coordinator and
Fauntroy SCLC head in the District of Columbia. ‘Young said that his
{interest is in preventing in any way disclosure of information that might.
be derogatory concerning King. He said that he is particularly concerned
about the possibility that the Senate Select Committee and the House Select
Committee on Intelligence might subpoena FBI records concerning King
with the result that material could be leaked to the press.
