Ltr. to Mr. G. J. Rathman, Chief, Investigation Section, u. s.
AEC, dated 10 February 1949, Re Photographs
of the negative. In other words, there is a trail of
that section of the negative which was not exposed in
the camera. Thie effect shows up in one negative and
not in the other because the negative in question is
fogged; therefore, this irregularity was developed.
"Sti11 f'Urther proof of these defects lies in t.he number
of unevenly developed sections of the negative."
In view of the above, it is reoam:nended that this entire matter
be declassif'ied and that Mr. Presley be advised of the nature o£
the images, if and when the negatives are returned to h1m by your
office.
For your information, this ottioe is taking the liberty of :turnish­
1ng a copy o£ this ~ommnieation to Mr. c. c. Mcswain, Special
Agent, F.BI, because of official interest eTidenced by his office
1n the matter.
Your cooperation 1n furnishing photographs and negatives, together
With information contained in your letter o£ 16 December 1948 to
Major Grant, is sincerely appreciated.
Vecy truly yours,
