so } eee f Gebhardt to Callahan Memo RE: DALE ANDERSON, COUNTY EXECUTIVE, BALTIMORE COUNTY, MARYLAND; SPIRO AGNEW, VICE-PRESIDENT; INFORMATION CONCERNING investigation at this time in this matter. Mr. Kelley and I discussed this matter and I advised Mr. Kelley it was my belief that the FBI was definitely on sound ground at this point. Mr. Kelley suggested the possibility of a letter being directed to IRS in this regard. I advised Mr. Kelley it was my view that we should send a letter to the Attorney General with copies to Assistant Attorney General Petersen confirming the information we received from the U. S. Attorney's Office in Baltimore; the U. S. Attorney's opinion as to the conduct of this investigation; the contact on 8/8/73 with the Criminal Division and Mr. Petersen's opinion; and, finally, the fact that we were directing a letter to the Commissioner of IRS advising IRS of the opinion of Mr. Petersen but that the FBI stands ready and able to be of assistance to IRS in conducting any investigation relative to matters normally within the FBI's investigative jurisdiction which are uncovered as a result of the basic tax investigation. Mr. Kelley agreed with this procedure and instructed the letters be prepared immediately. I told him this would be done. ACTION: The necessary letters are being prepared pursuant to Mr. Kelley's instructions. Wa ~2-
