¥ April 29, 1968 Senator John Sperkean 0,8, Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Senater Spariusa; I feel that it fa time for the facts to be released about who boubed the negro church in Birmingham several years ago, Buntley and Brinkley Were quite free to blawe some white racist for setting of f the bomb which killed several negro children. They mentioned thie on several broadcasts on T.V.. The newspapers were libere] in their blame on some white persan, Then the Federal Government sent former coach, Red Blake sad Kenneth Royal, to Birmingham to see what information could be found, At that tike, the news media indicated that they would remain in Birmingham wntil thay discovered who set off the bomb. Actually they left cow within a few days and I hewe newer seen or heard about whet they found. It seems that scmeoue is afraid to let che public know the facts. T think that all of che citizens of the U.S.A. should be {informed about the details im the bombing and the government knows who {ts guilty. The nema or names should be released, ‘hie should be the case whether the bomb was placed by a white persom or 4 negre. How about some action on your part to let all of as know whe was guilty. Are the facta being held secret because of civil rights sovanents > Sincerely yours, Eece~of Bee cf Eematt 3. Carwichsel _.
