Director Hoover's commmication to the White House on March 26, 1968 (included in the transmittal) which advised that Robert Kennedy had attempted to contact Dr. King before amouncing his candidacy for the Presidency (HQ 100-106670-3262). The task force reviewed selected portions of all of the transcripts in the King file as well as selected portions of several tapes from which the transcripts were obtained. An inventory of the tapes reviewed is set forth below: 1) Washingto, D.C., 1/5-6/64 (Willard Hotel, 15 reels) - Reel "Nos. 1-6, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 14 2) Atlanta Tape (symbol) (one reel) _ 3) Composite Tape 12/15/64 (edited version of Le resis) Essentially, we reviewed the tapes by listening to the beginning, middle, and end of each tape and compared it to the corresponding transcript. They were basically accurate transcriptions in the sense that what was in the transcripts was also on the tapes. However, som material on the tapes was not put on the transcripts apparently because either that portion of the recording was garbled or unclear or it was considered unirportant. -]31-
