Memorandum to Mr. J. B. Adams Re: Surreptitious Entries 66-8160 As detailed in W. C. Sullivan to Mr. C. D. DeLoach Memorandum of July 19, 1966, (captioned "Black Bag" Jobs) +ha nents EAT 1 mt. nal ee. ae ee ee ee ee ee es ee ee oe eo GS SLY EMMLe LVL Wald LUePeu.u to memoranda concerning surreptitious entries was that ". . . the Special Agent in Charge prepares an informal memorandum showing that he obtained Bureau authority and this memorandum is filed in his safe until ghe next inspection by Bureau Inspectors, at which time it is destroyed.” It is evident that the policy outlined in the Sullivan memorandum was not, in at least one instance, strictly adhered to. In a communication of April 5, 1976, the New York i # iS LY SVln Office reported results of a review of the 25 volumes mentioned above for information pertaining to domestic security matters. The review showed a total of 73 entries directed against such groups as the CPUSA, the SWP, Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), and the Weather Underground. Of the 73 entries, 31 have been reported previously to the Department. Since documents of this nature have been located in the New York Office, it is possible that similar material exists in the field offices. To insure our full compliance with the Department's inquiry, we will survey all field offices for documents of this nature.
