C. 20535 Ag Ab: s ae Dear Judge Webster: > \ Recently, I have read and heard many camments relative the [recent ABSCAM Operation conducted by the Federal Bureau of Inves- "eigation. It appears that certain members of Congress are supportive of a House and Senate investigation of bribery allegations against gieht congressmen. Again, public officials are trying to use thei tion of public trust for the purposes of discovering the ey/ vand to restrict the future investigative function of the B ‘Bureau Of Investigation. For many years, we have heard of the vast corruption ‘lists between organized labor, members of Congress, and organized ‘oxime figures. The recent investigation by your agency proves this ‘point beyond a doubt. Please accept my sincere appreciation for your outstanding per~ {formance , as well as members of your staff, and the men and women of e Federal Bureau of Investigation in their investigation of matters ich are so vital to our survival as a nation. sme, Bf 25 bof SH) ft yl om i tuibliém: 1) William K.
