nai ~~ gm, me te | 507 West 11th Street ‘ - New York, N.Y. 10025 - | - an August 20, 7 Honorable John C. Stennis Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. « Dear Senator Stennis: { am in the process of accumulating what [I believe to be ine contestable evidence, and a lot of it, that a very well known United States senator committed perjury on several counts rather recently, . expressed in terms of years. : . Moreover, the nature of these perjurious statements and the occasion on which they were made strongly suggest that this senator may have not only instigated but participated in a major crime. If this should be the case, | believe the United States Senate and the American public should know about it. ! also believe this matter should first be brought to the at~ tention of the Select Cc:.sittee on Standards and Conduct, of which 1 understand you are the chairman, for scrutiny and further action. if warranted. At the present time, | would estimate completing this work In several more weeks or possibly a couple of months. Rather than sending it to you through the mails, however, | would much prefer handing it to you in the course of a personal interview, perhaps to- gether with one or more others of your committee to be selected by you, In Washington. Naturally, 1 would like to know, first, if this would be agreeable with you, and, second, if such a trip on my part would not be considered at the "convenience of the government’. In short, are funds available to your committee to defray the limited ex- penses that would be involved for such a trip? l trust that you understand my position and agree that this is a matter requiring a carcful approach. Sincerely yours, Albert $. Patterson + mieyieanay |e ' a i ASP:s
