Dear Senator Humphrey:
I have caused an investigation
to be made in the matter of material
furnished by the White House to
Mr. Les Flewelling, Secretary of the
Bemidji Civic and Commerce Association.
I am now in a position to furnish you
with a report.
It was found that a subordinate
at the White House, without authority,
issued the material at the request of
Congressman Hagen. The employee has
admitted that he acted without specific
authority and proper disciplinary action
has been taken.
I am very sorry about the
incident and I assure you that the
President, as well as myself, regrets
the embarrassment that this matter has
caused you.
With best regards.
Sincerely,
MATTHEW J. CONNELLY
Secretary to the President
Honorable Hubert H. Humphrey
United States Senate
Washington, D. C.
